Take Good Care Of Her

(album: Lie To Me - Brook Benton Singing The Blues - 1962)

Take good care of her
Take good care of her

I suppose, I should say congratulations
For you won the only girl I've ever loved
But it hurts too much, to face the situation
Take good care of her
Take good care of her

Just to be around her was my greatest pleasure
She was everything my future held in store
So remember when you take my only treasure
Just take good care of her
Take good care of her

I must accept it she loves you more than me
So with my broken heart I'll bow out gracefully
Please, don't send me any wedding invitations (don't send me one)
For I couldn't bear it, I could bear to see her there with you
If she is happy that will be my consolation
Just take good care of her
Take good care of her
