Go With Her

Yeah, Daddy said, «Son I’m sorry
You and Sheila ain’t getting along
And if she’s so dead set on leaving you, boy
Why ain’t she already gone
Yeah, you better break out some sweet talking
'Cause I promise you you’re gonna miss her
And I know what I’d do
If my baby left me
Pack up my things and go with her.»
CHORUS:
You don’t stay with the one you can live with
It’s the one that you can’t live without
It’s the one that’s got you tore up in pieces, boy
It’s the one you keep talking about
Pride’s a tough pill to swallow
It’ll leave you lonely and cold and bitter
So what you need to do
If she’s gonna leave you
You better pack up and go with her
Daddy said, «Son, I’m through preaching
I’ve said all I’m gonna say
Now if you love her as much as I think you do
You’re a fool if she gets away
She can go anywhere that she wants to
Don’t give up, no don’t quit her
Do like I did when your momma left me
Hell, I just packed up and went with her.»
CHORUS:
You don’t stay with the one you can live with
It’s the one that you can’t live without
It’s the one that’s got you tore up in pieces, boy
It’s the one you keep fretting about
Pride’s a tough pill to swallow
It’ll leave you lonely, cold and bitter
What you need to do
If she’s gonna leave you
Pack up your things and go with her
CHORUS:
You don’t stay with the one you can live with
It’s the one that you can’t live without
It’s the one that’s got you tore up in pieces, boy
It’s the one you keep crying about
Pride’s a tough pill to swallow
It’ll leave you lonely, cold and bitter
What you need to do
If she’s gonna leave you
Better pack up and go with her
Yeah, I know what I did
When my baby left me
I packed up my things and went with her
