(Jack Clement)

You ask me if I'll forget my baby, I guess I will someday
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way
You ask me if I'll get along, I guess I will someway
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

God gave me that girl to lean on
Then he put me on my own
Heaven help me to be a man and have the strenght to stand alone
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

You ask me if I'll miss her kisses, I know I will everyday
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way
You ask me if I'll find another, I don't know I can't say
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

God gave me that girl to lean on
Then he put me on my own
Heaven help me to be a man and have the strenght to stand alone
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way...
