IF YOU REALLY WANT ME TO I'LL GO
(Delbert McClinton)


Waylon Jennings - 1966
Bonnie Owens - 1968
Dickey Lee - 1973



If you really want me to, I'll go
I don't really want to, but I'll go
If you've found somebody who could love you more than me
If you really want me to, I'll go

I don't know just what you're tryin' to do
You told me that your love for me was true
I don't understand, my love, please tell me what to do
If you really want me to, I'll go

I need you more than you know
Ask me to do anything but go

Oh, I can hardly talk, afraid I'll cry
I just don't think that I can say goodbye
Don't tell me that it's over, don't tell me that we're through
'Cause if you leave, I don't know what I'll do

I need you more than you know
Ask me to do anything but go

I  can hardly talk, afraid I'll cry
I just don't think that I can say goodbye
Don't tell me that it's over, don't tell me that we're through
'Cause if you'll leave, I don't know what I'll do

Say, don't tell me that it's over, don't tell me that we're through
'Cause if you leave, I don't know what I'll do
