Someone Else Will Take Your Place

I've cried both night and day

You've always had your way

But now you're leavin'

You're goin' away today

What grieves my weary mind

I've been so good and kind

If you had to leave me

Why did you wait 'til today?

When you're leavin' me, pretty baby

Someone else will take your place

For many years I've longed and waited

To say these words with so much grace

Got ways like a millionaire

Lord, they do declare

With my dainty figure and my baby stare

So if you're leavin' me, pretty baby

Someone else will take your place

I said, you're leavin' me, pretty baby

Someone else will take your place

For many years I've longed and waited

To say these words with so much grace

Now if you didn't want me, tell me to my face

'Cause there's five or six waitin', Lord, to take your place

If you're dissatisfied and feel like leavin'

Someone else will take your place

Hit that thing, big boy!

When you're leavin' me, pretty baby

Someone else will take your place

For many years I've longed and waited

To say these words with so much grace

Don't ever think you are in so strong

The chances are you might be wrong

So if you're dissatisfied and feel like leavin'

Someone else will take your place
