Stayin' Song

(S. Silverstein)I stopped 'cause there was nothing else to do

And I thought I'd stick around for just a while

But I warned you like the west wind, I was only blowin' through

And no one could ever make me change my style'Cause I never sung no stayin' song before

I've done them blues and good-bye tunes a thousand times or more

And it seems a little strange that I ain't headin' for the door

But I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought I'd stay this long, I never sung no stayin' song beforeI usually leave when all the words are said

But with you there's always more sweet things to say

And when my mind starts a wanderin'up that windin' road ahead

My feet don't seem to want to walk awayAnd I never sung no stayin' song before

I've done them blues and good-bye tunes a thousand times or more

And it seems a little strange that I ain't headin' for the door

But I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought I'd stay this long, I never sung no stayin' song beforeLast night I heard an old freight whistle blow

As I was sleeping warmly in your bed

And it told me, boy it's time that you was packing up to go

But I smiled and shook the leaving from my headAnd I never sung no stayin' song before

I've done them blues and good-bye tunes a thousand times or more

And it seems a little strange that I ain't headin' for the door

But I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought I'd stay this long, I never sung no stayin' song beforeI never sung no stayin' song, I never thought I'd stay this long, I never sung no stayin' song before

{I don't think so}

I never sung no stayin' song, I never thought I'd stay this long...(c) Unknown
