WOULD YOU TAKE ANOTHER CHANCE ON ME
(Jerry Foster / Bill Rice)
Jerry Lee Lewis - 1972
Kenny Price - 1972
Carl Smith - 1972
If I promise you to straighten up
And put my life in order
If I swear to you, woman, on bended knees
I won't hurt you again
If I become the kind of man
That you want me to be
Would you take another chance on me
The good Lord knows I've done you wrong
I've asked him to forgive me
Deep inside I think he would, Darlin'
If you could do the same
If I could take back all the things
That caused you misery
Would you take another chance on me
Would you take another chance on me
I've paid for my mistakes
Would you take another chance on me
Or have I changed too late
Mmmmm....I've been a fool, woman, for hurting you
But God can't you see I'm sorry
If you were only mine again
I'd make it up to you
But my past keeps blinding you
If you could only see
Would you take another chance on me?
Think about it, Darlin'
