Haggard, Merle - Teach Me To Forget Lyrics






You taught me how to love with all my heart
With all my soul I trusted you
And now you say we'll have to live apart
A thing I don't know how to do

You say someday I'll find somebody new
And I'll have not one regret
Stay a while if what you say is true
Stay and teach me to forget

You taught me how to worship you alone
And now you say that you must go
And people call me on the telephone
Just to say I told you so

You say someday I'll find somebody new
And I'll have not one regret
Stay a while if what you say is true
Stay and teach me to forget.

Stay and teach me to forget...

    Every country fan will miss the great Merle Haggard. Saw him in again in person in
    January 2015. My darling husband, Jim, took me to see Merle for my birthday. Miss
    my darling husband too and he went home to be with the Lord in Sept. 2015. Janelle in Houston

    J.... K....

    Janelle Klintworth you have your last name in your screen name. You have the city you live in in your comment. Do you want weirdos to come and find you

    J.... K....

    Life is hard at times,I respect your great loss and it is hard but you must be strong
    Merle sings the songs. That help us to cope,my sympathy to you. For your loss

  40. l.... S....

    Betty Knight my favorite memory Love Merle

    B.... K....

    I do!1 got to see him do 20 concerts & wanted more.

  45. S.... W....

    he was so deep, so complex, i wonder what regrets he might of really had, --but knowing this loving man, it was the woe he gave his family and mom after his daddy died, and the rough road he took running, he loved many, i think he loved us all,

    S.... W....

    Bless you and your family, my late husband was in music and did promoting,
    and never got to know Merle but he was a big fan of Merle's, he leaves a big hole in country music, we have few who know how to sing country. He was an amazing man and will be missed by all who knew him. My heart goes out to you all. Widow of KenAllen

  55. H.... ....

    One of my favorite tunes done by Merle. It was written by Leon Payne who was one of Bob Wills' Texas Playboys at one time..This song was released on Merle's 1968 Mama Tried album.

    H.... ....

    Ah yes, Bob Wills and the Teas Playboys. Love that country swing. Nobody does it these guys. Only Vince Gill and Asleep At The Wheel still do some country swing.
