Don’t Stay Too Long Ernest Tubb

[Chorus]
Don't stay too long 'cause I'm too lonesome
Don't stay too long 'cause I'm too blue
When you're away I'm so downhearted
Don't stay too long 'cause I love you

[Verse 1]
When you are here I'm so contented
Each minute is a joy for me
But when you go my heart starts crying
My darling won't you heed my plea

[Instrumental Break]
Oh Billy Bird now

[Verse 2]
Your letters come but still I'm lonely
'Cause letters can't erase my tears
In dreams I have my arms around you
The days and nights now seem like years

[Verse 3]
I'll walk the floor and think about you
I just can't find a thing to do
But when you're near my life's a pleasure
I can't get by if I can't have you
