(Hank Williams)
I could shame you 'til you hide your face
And drag you right down in disgrace
But what good would it do
I know I'd still want you.
I could tell the world you're doin' wrong
That I was stringin' you along
And if it all were true
I know I'd still want you.
The world with me might sympathize
When I got thru with all my lies
But I'd be just as blue
'Cause my heart would still want you, oh, oh
Cry, oh Lord.
I could tell my friends I threw you down
And slander your name all over town
But what good would it do
I know I'd still want you.
If I said I'm happy to be free
The only one I'd fool is me
Because it isn't true
I know I'd still want you.
What's the use to say that you're no good
When I'd crawl back if I could
No matter what you do
I know I'd still want you, oh, oh
Cry, oh, Lord.
I could smIle and say that I don't care
And then go home and pull my hair
But what good would it do
I know I'd still want you.
I could say that someone put me wise
And get revenge by telling lies
But when I got all thru
I know I'd still want you.
If the things I said was to break your heart
I'd be the first to take your part
'Cause if all these lies were true
I know I'd still want you, oh, oh
Cry, oh, Lord...
I could shame you 'til you hide your face
And drag you right down in disgrace
But what good would it do
I know I'd still want you.
I could tell the world you're doin' wrong
That I was stringin' you along
And if it all were true
I know I'd still want you.
The world with me might sympathize
When I got thru with all my lies
But I'd be just as blue
'Cause my heart would still want you, oh, oh
Cry, oh Lord.
I could tell my friends I threw you down
And slander your name all over town
But what good would it do
I know I'd still want you.
If I said I'm happy to be free
The only one I'd fool is me
Because it isn't true
I know I'd still want you.
What's the use to say that you're no good
When I'd crawl back if I could
No matter what you do
I know I'd still want you, oh, oh
Cry, oh, Lord.
I could smIle and say that I don't care
And then go home and pull my hair
But what good would it do
I know I'd still want you.
I could say that someone put me wise
And get revenge by telling lies
But when I got all thru
I know I'd still want you.
If the things I said was to break your heart
I'd be the first to take your part
'Cause if all these lies were true
I know I'd still want you, oh, oh
Cry, oh, Lord...
