Forty nine reasons all in a line
All of them good ones, a - all of them lies
Driftin' with my lady, we're oldest of friends
Need a little work and there's fen - ces to mend
Steady girl be my world (Steady girl)
'Til the drifter come, now she's gone (Be my world)
I let that man play his hand (Drifter come)
I let them go, how was I to know? (Now you're gone)
I'm down on my knees, nobody left to please
(no lyrics)
Now it's over, they left in the spring
Her and the drifter looking for beautiful things
(no lyrics)
(no lyrics)
Steady girl be my world (Steady girl)
'Til the drifter come, now she's gone (Be my world)
I let that man play his hand (Drifter come)
I let them go, how was I to know? (Now you're gone)
I'm down on my knees, nobody left to please
On my knees, feeling wrong
Mama's gone, oh
Bye bye ba - by (Bye, bye baby)
Wri - te if you think of it maybe
Know I love you (Know I love you)
Go if it means that much to you
Hey, but you can run baby
If the feeling's wrong before too long it's crazy
And you're trapped, babe, and you know that's not where it's at, babe
You're just seein' things through a cat's eye, baby
That's not my old la - dy
Come on and tell me ba - by
You better tell me ba - by
Who do you Who do you lo - ve?
Time will tell us
Who is trying to sell us
Bye, bye ba - by (Bye, bye, bye, bye baby)
Wri - te if you think of it maybe
Hey, but you can run baby
If the feeling's wrong before too long it's crazy
And you're trapped, babe, and you know that's not where it's at, babe
You're just seein' things through a cat's eye, baby
That's not my old la - dy
Come on and tell me ba - by
You better tell me ba - by
Who do you Who do you lo - ve?
