I Gave Up All I Had

Lyrics

[Chorus] I gave up all I had All the good things that made me glad I gave up all I had For you, oh [Verse 1] She was good Did what she knew she should She'd never run out on you I don't believe she could But all you do is hurt me Just like she said you would I'd go back to my baby If I thought I could [Chorus] I gave up all I had All the good things that made me glad I gave up all I had For you, oh [Verse 2] I walk the streets all night Just longing to hold her tight I wanna hear her tell me "Everything's all right" You won't let me go, no no You follow behind me still Why won't you leave me alone And let me do what I will? [Chorus] I gave up all I had All the good things that made me glad I gave up all I had For you, oh [Verse 3] She had four beautiful children And they were nice to me They loved and respected poor me But I had to earn that love 'Cause they didn't have no daddy When I first met the girl I took them under my wings That's when we fell in love [Chorus] I gave up all I had All the good things that made me glad I gave up all I had For you, oh I gave up all I had All the good things that made me glad (Wish I could get 'em back) I gave up all I had For you, oh
