Ernest Tubb:
WALKIN’ THE FLOOR OVER YOU

1. You left me and you went away
You said that you’d be back in just a day
You’ve broken your promise and you left me here alone
I don’t know why you did dear but I do know that you’re gone

Rf. I’m walkin‘ the floor over you
I can’t sleep a wink that is true
I’m hoping and I’m praying as my heart breaks right in two
Walkin‘ the floor over you

2. Now darling you know I love you well
I love you more than I can ever tell
I thought that you wanted me and always would be mine
But you went and left me here with troubles on my mind

Rf.

3. Now someday you may be lonesome too
Walking the floor is good for you
Just keep right on walking and it won’t hurt you to cry
Remember that I loved you and I will to the day I die

Rf.
