You Babe by Merle Haggard Lyrics

[Verse]
Sometimes this old world's a drag, it really pulls me down
I try so hard, but nothing comes around
Then I look up and find that I've no reason to be blue
I've already found the whole wide world with you

[Chorus]
And if there's nothing else I do
Than spend my whole life through
Loving you, babe, you babe
I'll always be in command
Just as long as I'm the man
Loving you, babe, you babe
And I can stand real tall
And stand up to it all
Loving you, baby, just you

[Verse]
One time, this old rocky road of life was just too tough
I felt like saying, "Lord, I've had enough"
Then I heard something special that a deaf man couldn't miss
I heard it in the whisper of your kiss
[Chorus]
And if there's nothing else I do
Than spend my whole life through
Loving you, babe, you babe
I'll always be in command
Just as long as I'm the man
Loving you, babe, you babe
And I can stand real tall
And stand up to it all
Loving you, baby, just you

[Outro]
Loving you, babe, you babe
Loving you, babe
