Words and music by teddy gentry and richard scott

Why, lady, why, can't i leave you alone?
I try, lady, try, but the feeling's too strong.
You stay on my mind. feel just like a fool.
Why, lady, why, can't i get over you?

Why, lady, why? it was easy before.
I try, lady, try, but it ain't easy no more.
To be on my way would be the best thing to do.
Why, lady, why, can't i get over you?

Why, lady, why, can't i leave you alone?
I try, lady, try, but the feeling's too strong.
To be on my way would be the best thing to do.
Why, lady, why, can't i get over you?
