Hold Me Like I'm Leaving - Welles

All my life I’ve been workin', slavin'

All my life I’ve tried

Just give me 'nough to keep me real and I’ll be satisfied

All my life I’ve been slavin', haulin', pumpin', howlin' mad

Scrape the earth like a ten-ton war medal, rollin' up the slack

I ain’t cut out for love

I ain’t cut out for love

I ain’t cut out for love

Hold me like I’m leavin' 'cause I feel it come a creepin' again

Hold me like I’m leavin' 'cause I feel it come a creepin' again

Hold me like I’m leavin' 'cause I feel it come a creepin' again

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Dust me off like a jar of fire, declare me as your friend

It’s been done before and we’re doin it now

And I’m sure it’s not the end

Come a day when the sky is fallin', mosey down to die

Some are born to love so sweetly, I don’t have the time

I ain’t cut out for love

Oh lord, I ain’t cut out for love

I ain’t cut out for love

I ain’t cut out for love

Hold me like I’m leavin' 'cause I feel it come a creepin' again

Hold me like I’m leavin' 'cause I feel it come a creepin' again

Hold me like I’m leavin' 'cause I feel it come a creepin' again

Oh-oh, oh-oh

I ain’t cut out for love, lord

I ain’t cut out for love

I ain’t cut out for love

I ain’t cut out for love

Hold me like I’m leavin' 'cause I feel it come a creepin' again

Hold me like I’m leavin' 'cause I feel it come a creepin' again

Hold me like I’m leavin' 'cause I feel it come a creepin' again

Oh-oh, oh-oh
