(Harlan Howard)

I've stole that money for my baby
I've shot that man who shot at me
She wasn't even in the courtroom
And I'm a wishin' she was here instead of me.

Now Lord you know that I ain't yellow
But she's out there running fancy free
A lovin' up some other fellow
And I'm a wishin' she was here instead of me.

--- Instrumental ---

I've stole that money for my honey
I dressed her like a Christmas tree
Now she won't even write a letter
And I'm a wishin' she was here instead of me.

In three more days they're gonna hang me
Now I've got it coming out at me
Oh, with my last breath they'll hear me holler
Lord, I'm a wishin' she was here instead of me.

Well, I'm a wishin' she was here instead of me...
This song is from the album "Harlan Howard Sings Harlan Howard [Capitol]".
