You Love The Ground I Walk On by Waylon Jennings Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1968

[Verse 1]
I work so hard to win myself a place in life
And leave behind the slums and poverty
Now I have wealth, a fancy home, a pretty wife

[Chorus]
She loves the ground I walk on but she don't love me

You like the places that I take you, don't you girl
At last you were where you've always longed to be
You're very much at home here in this kind of world

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
And I know just what would happen
If there came a dawn
That I was broken down and out
I'd reach and you'd be gone
Don't worry girl that kind of dawn will never come
You'll always have the things you want from me
But it's so sad to know that when we're all alone
[Chorus][x2]
