(Ernest Tubb)

You left me and you went away
You said that you'd be back in just a day
You've broken your promise and you left me here alone
I don't know why you did dear, but I do know that you're gone.

I'm walking the floor over you
I can't sleep a wink that is true
I'm hoping and I'm praying as my heart breaks right in two
I'm walking the floor over you.

Now darling you know I love you well
I love you more than I could ever tell
I thought that you wanted me and always would be mine
But you went and left me here with trouble on my mind.

I'm walking the floor over you
I can't sleep a wink that is true
I'm hoping and I'm praying as my heart breaks right in two
I'm walking the floor over you.

Now someday you may be lonesome too
Walking the floor is good for you
We'll just keep right on walking honey and it won't hurt your pride
Remember that I loved you and I will till I die.

I'm walking the floor over you
I can't sleep a wink that is true
I'm hoping and I'm praying as my heart breaks right in two
I'm walking the floor over you.

I'm walking the floor over you.
I'm walking the floor over you...
