I Can Leave


By Mark Merritt, Earl Musick & Roy Robinson


Well, it's one for the money
Two is for the show.
Three got you ready
And now it's time to go.

 

(Chorus)
I can leave
But I've never been one to run.
I never bought all that stuff
About living in the sun
Thank God, there's another day to come.

Well, there's salt in my eyes
And there's salt in my margarita.
They both burn like hell
But the drink don't help to forget her.

(Chorus)

Everything dies when the frost is on the rose.
It's a one shot deal.
Down the path you chose.

(Chorus)
