If It Hadn't Been For Love

Never woulda hitch hiked to Birmingham If it hadn't been for love Never woulda caught the train to Louisian' If it hadn't been for love Never woulda run through the blindin' rain Without one dollar to my name If it hadn't been If it hadn't been for love Never woulda seen the trouble that I'm in If it hadn't been for love Woulda been gone like a wayward wind If it hadn't been for love Nobody knows it better than me I wouldn't be wishing I was free If it hadn't been If it hadn't been for love Four cold walls against my will At least I know he's lying still Four cold walls without parole Lord have mercy on my soul Never woulda gone to that side of town If it hadn't been for love Never woulda took a mind to track her down If it hadn't been for love Never woulda loaded up a forty four Put myself behind a jail house door If it hadn't been If it hadn't been for love Four cold walls against my will At least I know he's lying still Four cold walls without parole Lord have mercy on my soul Never woulda hitch hiked to Birmingham If it hadn't been for love Never woulda caught the train to Louisian' If it hadn't been for love Never woulda loaded up a forty four Put myself behind a jail house door If it hadn't been If it hadn't been for love If it hadn't been If it hadn't been for love If it hadn't been If it hadn't been for love
