The One You Slip Around With Lyrics by Buck Owens
Album : Buck Owens Sings Harlan Howard [Sundazed Music]
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
I had the key to heaven when we married
And for a while I brought you happiness
But now your love for me is dead and buried
And every night you share another's kiss.

And I'd rather be the one you slip around with
And be the one who's dream of love is gone
I'd rather be the one you spend your time with
Than be the one at home all alone.

--- Instrumental ---

Deep down inside I know that I should leave you
How many tears was fallen before I learn
I think of many ways that I could grieve you
And yet I'm always here when you return.

And I'd rather be the one you slip around with
And be the one who's dream of love is gone
I'd rather be the one you spend your time with
Than be the one at home all alone...
I had the key to heaven when we married   And for a while I brought you happiness   But now your love for me is dead and buried   And every night you share another's kiss.      And I'd rather be the one you slip around with   And be the one who's dream of love is gone   I'd rather be the one you spend your time with   Than be the one at home all alone.      --- Instrumental ---      Deep down inside I know that I should leave you   How many tears was fallen before I learn   I think of many ways that I could grieve you   And yet I'm always here when you return.      And I'd rather be the one you slip around with   And be the one who's dream of love is gone   I'd rather be the one you spend your time with   Than be the one at home all alone...
