Willie Nelson - You Wouldn't Cross The Street (To Say Goodbye) Lyrics






Today, I stood across the street an' watched you leave with him,
Right before my disbelieving eyes.
And when you saw me standing there, you turned away from me.
And you wouldn't even cross the street to say goodbye.

Once you said you'd do most anything to keep our love.
You'd tear out your tongue before you'd tell me lies.
Once you said you'd go to any lengths to be with me.
Today, you wouldn't even cross the street to say goodbye.

[Instrumental break]

Once you said you'd do most anything to keep our love.
You'd tear out your tongue before you'd tell me lies.
Once you said you'd crawl on hands and knees to be with me.
Today, you wouldn't even cross the street to say goodbye.

    Mickey Newbury and Willie fell out over one of Willie's daughters. Mickey then wrote 'She Even Woke Me Up To Say 'Goodbye'. Willie subsequently wrote this. I knew 'em both and walked on eggshells in the early '70s. Tell me, were they friends again before Mickey died?

    Willie must have led a sad life because of all the sad songs he wrote. Sad yet beautful. His songs make you feel bad and good at the same time. One of his best I think!
