Don't Give Up On Me, Edgar

Lyrics

Don’t Give Up on Me, Edgar © 2005 Martha Ann Brooks (BMI) Don’t give up on me, Edgar You know I’m not the cheatin’ kind This feller don’t mean nothin’ He’s just a real good friend of mine I met him at the carwash His Camaro sure looked fine It was the shiny red Went to my head And I said I’d take a ride I had no clear intention of us goin’ to a bar And I didn’t know the drinkin’ Would make me think I was a star Why I started dancin’ On the table’s beyond me Must have been pure liquor But he said it was only iced tea Chorus: Oh, Edgar, please believe me Dear It’s true Don’t give up on me Love And I won’t give up on you Now, Edgar, I’m no floosie, not a rounder nor a flirt And you know I never ever wear this kind of lowcut shirt This one must have shrunk up in the dryer by accident Why’re you lookin’ at me like that, With your eyes all hard as flint? (Repeat Chorus) Edgar, I’m sincere now I just want to go back home I promise I won’t take more rides I promise I won’t roam If you will call me Baby Doll And say you love me true I’ll be faithful just like always and I’ll never make you blue (Repeat Chorus) Tag: No, Don’t give up on me, Love And I won’t give up on you © Martha Ann Brooks 2005
