I'll Go On Alone - Lyrics - Webb Pierce

Webb Michael Pierce was one of the most popular American honky tonk vocalists of the 1950s, charting more number one hits than any other country artist during the decade.

We're trav'ling down two different roads in world so far apart You want me yet there's something else before me in your heart You're wanting me to change my life the way you're living yours But I can't change I see no way you wanted me before If you don't want me like I am then please don't pity me If you can't change a little bit then why not set me free If we can't live together dear it's best we live apart You'll go your way and I'll go mine we'll both make brand new start ( fiddle ) There's nothing I can say it seems we'll never get along With you believing like you do you to say I live so wrong But I can't change my way of life I've lived it much too long You'll have to take me like I am or I'll go on alone So either say you want my love or take the way you live Remember though before you get you gotta learn to give So if it change my life or go then go it's gonna be Cause I can't change my life when you want something more than me
