Porter Wagoner - Melinda lyrics

(Dolly Parton)

I drifted into Arkansas in the middle of September
I hadn't planned to stay for long
Just to visit an old friend that I remembered
Quite surprised he asked if I could stay till late October
And help him with his crops till harvest time was over.

He offered me a clean white bed
Said that I was welcome at his table
But I told him that I'd eat outside
Bed down in the barn above the stables.

I told him that I didn't want to be no trouble
To his lovely wife
But he didn't know she was the reason
That I'd come 'cause I loved her more than life.

Oh Melinda, I just had to see you one more time Melinda
I won't 'cause you any trouble with my stayPorter Wagoner - Melinda - http://motolyrics.com/porter-wagoner/melinda-lyrics.html
Oh Melinda, I just had to see you one more time Melinda
One more time Melinda then I'll go away.

Melinda it's so good to see you happy
I had always hoped you would be
I know you couldn't help it that you loved him
More than you love me.

I know he's a good man
And he's always been a friend of mine
And I think the world of both of you
And I just had to see you one more time.

Oh Melinda, I just had to see you one more time Melinda
I won't 'cause you any trouble with my stay
Oh Melinda, I just had to see you one more time Melinda
One more time Melinda then I'll go away.

One more time Melinda then I'll go away...
