Ernest Tubb - Just Partners Lyrics

Ernest Tubb Lyrics

"Just Partners"

Why not be just partners for a while
I don't want to call you sweetheart now
At parting just a handshake and a smile
Then there'll be no tears of broken vow

It's better that we never fall in love
We'll be partners if you'll do your part
We'll be the best of friends
And partners to the end
I couldn't bear another broken heart

I must admit that you are pure as gold dear
I know I like you better than the rest
But I'm afraid to tell the story old dear
I'll never take another loosing guest

Why not be just partners for a while
I don't want to call you sweetheart now
At parting just a handshake and a smile
Then there'll be no tears of broken vow

It's better that we never fall in love
We'll be partners if you'll do your part
We'll be the best of friends
And partners to the end
I couldn't bear another broken heart
