by John Martyn
May you never lay your head down without a hand to hold.
May you never make your bed out in the cold.
May you never lose your temper if you get hit in a barroom fight.
May you never lose your woman overnight.
Wellyou re just like a greatstrong sister to me
And I know that your love is true
And you hold no blade for to stab me in my back;
I know that there s some that do.
So pleasewon t you pleasewon t you bear it in mind:
Love is a lesson to learn in our time.
Pleasewon t you pleasebear it in mind for me.
Chorus
Wellyou re just like a greatstrong brother to me
And I know that your love is true
And you never talk dirty behind my back;
I know that there s some that do.
So pleasewon t you pleasewon t you bear it in mind:
Love is a lesson to learn in our time.
Pleasewon t you pleasebear it in mind for me.
Chorus
May you never lose your woman overnight.
May you never lose your woman overnight.
