I'd Still Want You Songtext
von Hank Williams

I could shame you ′til you hide your face
And drag you right down in disgrace
But what good would it do?
I know I'd still want you

I could tell the world you′re doin' wrong
That I was stringin' you along
And if it all were true
I know I′d still want you

This world with me might sympathize
When I got through with all my lies
But I′d be just as blue
'Cause my heart would still want you
Cry, oh Lord

I could tell my friends I threw you down
And slander your name all over town
But what good would it do?
I know I′d still want you


If I said I'm happy to be free
The only one I′d fool is me
Because it isn't true
I know I′d still want you

What's the use to say that you're no good
When I′d crawl back if I could
No matter what you do
I know I′d still want you
Cry, oh Lord

I could smIle and say that I don't care
And then go home and pull my hair
But what good would it do?
I know I′d still want you

I could say that someone put me wise
And get revenge by telling lies
But when I got all through
I know I'd still want you

If the things I said was to break your heart
I′d be the first to take your part
Only if all these lies were true
I know I'd still want you
Cry, oh Lord
