Charlie Rich
If You Wouldn’t Be My Lady
Take away the song a songbird sings
Take away the sound that laughter brings
Take the music from a melody never take
Your love from me

You make me smile you make dark sad times turn
Into warm sunshine You give me love the Lord
Above knows

I wouldn't know what to do if you wouldn't be my
Lady I wouldn't know what to do if you weren't
Here today I wouldn't know what to do if you
Wouldn't be my lady I wouldn't know what to do if
You weren't here to stay

Take away the gentle summer breeze
Take away the golden autumn leaves
I can live without blue skies above
But I could never live without your love
You give me life you make bad times turn into
Those good times You give me love Lord above knows

I wouldn't know what to do if you wouldn't be my
Lady I wouldn't know what to do if you weren't
Here today I wouldn't know what to do if you
Wouldn't be my lady I wouldn't know what to do if
You weren't here to stay
I wouldn't know what to do if you wouldn't be my
Lady I wouldn't know what to do if you weren't
Here today I wouldn't know what to do if you
Wouldn't be my lady......
