So long we've been married, life's burdens we carried Though they kept us humble and made our love true The plans that we make up, someone seems to break up Oh darlin' what else can we do? We may have to leave here to find peace of mind dear Some place where we can live the life on our own I know you love me and happy we could be If some folks would leave us alone While I go out walkin', there's lots of loose talkin' They say we're unhappy and we'll break apart But darlin' it's not true because I still love you And I do with all of my heart We may have to leave here to find peace of mind dear Some place where we can live the life on our own I know you love me and happy we could be If some folks would leave us alone They say that you're leavin', that you are deceivin' But you tell me they say the same about me But we'll show them they're wrong, that loose talk will do harm And hope that the truth they will see We may have to leave here to find peace of mind dear Some place where we can live the life on our own For I know you love me and happy we could be If some folks would leave us alone, if some folks will leave us alone
