(William S. Cook)

The one I love found another
She ran away with my best friend
Came home last night for just an hour
Daylight came she's gone again.

Well, you can have her, I don't want her
She never loved me anyway
She only wanted someone to play with
But all I wanted was love to stay.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, if you get the wrong woman
There's only one thing you can do
Just dig a hole crawl right in it
And pull the ground in after you.

Well, you can have her, I don't want her
She never loved me anyway
She only wanted someone to play with
But all I wanted was love to stay.

--- Instrumental ---

Life without love is mighty empty
When you've got no one that you can hold
I'd rather have love I can cling to
Than have the world and all of it's gold.

Well you can have her, I don't want her
She never loved me anyway
She only wanted someone to play with
But all I wanted was love to stay.

Well, you can have her, I don't want her
She never loved me anyway
She only wanted someone to play with
But all I wanted was love to stay...
