I Could Never Give You Up

By David Allan Coe

Dedication: This song is especially for JJ. Cale and Leon Russell, with a special place in my heart for their musical influences, and to Bonnie Bramlett and Dickey Betts for being big enough to forgive Gregg's shortcomings and continue the brothers strong Southern movement in musical history!

DON'T YOU EVER DOUBT MY LOVE

CAUSE YOU FIT ME LIKE A GLOVE

AND I COULD NEVER GIVE YOU UP FOR SOMEONE ELSE

HONEY, I WONT DO YOU WRONG

AND I'VE BEEN LOVING YOU TO LONG

AND I COULD NEVER GIVE YOU UP FOR SOMEONE ELSE

WHEN IT COMES TO LOVING, HONEY

YOU CAN SURE PUT OUT THE FLAME

NO OTHER WOMAN EVER COULD

NOW AIN'T THAT A SHAME

YOU LAY HEAVY ON MY MIND

YOU'RE THE BEST LOVE I COULD FIND

AND I COULD NEVER GIVE YOU UP FOR SOMEONE ELSE

IF YOU EVER HAVE TO GO

HONEY, PLEASE DON'T LET ME KNOW

CAUSE I COULD NEVER GIVE YOU UP FOR SOMEONE ELSE
