Asleep At The Wheel
"If I Can't Love You" lyrics

If I Can't Love You

People call me a man of the town
Cause with the friends I keep
In the days I said
Keeps me moving round

But a woman like you gave me
A big surprise
You said it's you I want
And I saw it in your eyes

If I can't
Love you
I'm not the man that I should be
Cause when I hold you
In my arms
Oh, you drive me crazy

I'd trade all the glory I've got
From living foot loose and fancy free
Cause if I can't
Love you
I'm not the man that I should be

A man gets used to certain things he does
Like hanging with his pals
His favorite beer
And the women he loves

But I changed it
When the certain light shines through
I know now, dear
I've seen that light in you

If I can't
Love you
I'm not the man that I should be
Cause when I hold you
In my arms
Well, you drive me crazy

Oh, I'd trade all the glory I've got
From living foot loose and fancy free
Cause if I can't
Love you
I'm not the man that I should be

If I can't
Love you
I'm not the man that I should be
