WOMAN LET ME SING YOU A SONG
(Harlan Howard)

Lefty Frizzell - 1965
Waylon Jennings - 1967
Vernon Oxford - 1967



 
Woman let me sing you a song
Woman let me sing you a song
It tells how you done me wrong
So it's your fault if it's long
Woman, let me sing you a song

The neighbours say I run around
The neighbours say I run around
But baby if I do
I'm miles in back off you
Woman, let me sing you a song

My bank account is almost gone
My bank account is almost gone
You're wearing furs and rings
While I wear old blue jeans
Woman, let me sing you a song

You tell your friends I drink too much
Now the whole town knows I drink too much
But the reason why I drink
Is the thought you make me think
Woman, let me sing you a song

I'm leavin' and you think I'll be back
I'm leavin', but you think I'll be back
Here's my advice to you
Don't stop breathin' till I do
Woman, let me sing you a song

Woman, I done sang you my song
Woman, I done sang you my song
