Well, you ask me if I'll forget my baby I guess I will some day I don't like it but I guess things happen that way You ask me if I'll get along I guess I will some way I don't like it but I guess things happen that way Chorus: God gave me that girl to lean on, Then he put me on my own Heaven help me be a man And have the strength to stand alone I don't like it but I guess things happen that way You ask me if I'll miss her kisses I guess I will every day I don't like it but I guess things happen that way You ask me if I'll find another I don't know, I can't say I don't like it but I guess things happen that way Chorus: God gave me that girl to lean on, Then he put me on my own Heaven help me be a man And have the strength to stand alone I don't like it but I guess things happen that way
