Darling, come here I need to talk to you My mamma's ill So I'm going back to Texas But we can only afford But one bus ticket You know I might be gone For some time Debbie, don't worry doll Cause you'll always be mine Cry on my tummy And be understanding (understand now) You know things like this Just aren't how I plan it But let me tell you We're never apart Cause you live in my heart And I still get lonely But I know we'll be fine (we'll be fine) Cause you'll always be mine I hate her knowing I must be going My mamma's dying She's a-crying, "help me" I gotta go, no Ben no, What if you find a new love In the heartland? Oh baby, I'm not that kind of man And you'll always be mine Mine I'm not believing You're a-leaving Who am I holding When I get cold in December I love you What if you Never do Come back at all? (all) Debbie don't worry, doll Hey I love you, and that's all (all) You know that we'll be fine (we'll be fine) And you'll always be mine (mine) You're the best girl of all time And you'll always be mine Let's go, boys
