Gettin’ Even Lyrics by Carl Smith

Greatest Hits

0

[Chorus]
\nGettin' even's got me nowhere but lonesome
\nI've never been this blue that's for sure
\nYou can bet I'll be forgettin' gettin' even
\nIf I ever get another chance with her
\n
\n[Verse 1]
\nLast night I saw my baby out dancing
\nWith an old sweetheart she used to know before
\nThis jealous heart of mine starts runnin' overtime
\nFiguring out a way to even up the score
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nGettin' even's got me nowhere but lonesome
\nI've never been this blue that's for sure
\nYou can bet I'll be forgettin' gettin' even
\nIf I ever get another chance with her
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nWell I walked right up, I called her names, I told her
\nI was through with her right there before the crowd
\nI never dreamed that she was looking for me
\nMy gettin' even's got me crying loud
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nGettin' even's got me nowhere but lonesome
\nI've never been this blue that's for sure
\nYou can bet I'll be forgettin' gettin' even
\nIf I ever get another chance with her
\n
\n[Outro]
\nIf I ever get another chance with her
\nIf I ever get another chance with her
\nIf I ever get another chance with her\n\n
