"You Better Move On" lyrics

You Better Move On

You ask me
To give up the hand
Of the girl I love
You tell me
I'm not the man
She's worthy of

But who are you
To tell her who to love?
That's up to her
Yes, and the Lord above
You better move on

Well I know
You can buy her fancy clothes
And diamond rings
But I believe
She's happy with me
Without those things

Still you beg me
To set her free
But my friend, that will never be
You better move on

Now I don't blame you
For loving her
But can't you understand
Man, she's my girl
And I
Never never ever gonna let her go
Cause I
Yeah, I love her so

Well, I think you better go now
I'm getting mighty mad
You ask me
To give up the only love
I've ever had

Maybe I would
Oh, but I love her so
I'm never gonna let her go
You better move on
You better move on
You better move on
You better move on
