I've got to give you up, oh I've got to swear you off I'm missing my people I'm hanging the sign With too much forgiveness, baby But I hear your voice And it sweetens mine I've got to cool my head You should have heard the sound There so many rumours They're chasing my tail I'm almost forgotten myself But I walked till noon Just to find your trail Time on my own Believe I, believe I, I could use you Time on my own Believe I'd love the company Time on my own Believe I, believe I, I could use you Time on my own Believe I'd learn to love you I've got to give you up, oh You watch me walking off Just like the film noir movies I'm the girl that sinned My hide is up for the sky I just wait till dawn till the storm bell rings Ring, ring, ring Oh, Lord She laid me low
