You Can Have Her - Roy Hamilton/The Righteous Brothers/Waylon Jennings/Johnny Rivers/Charlie Rich/Elvis Presley/The Delltones/The Persuasions

  
  
 
You Can Have Her
Well, you can have her, I don't want her, 
She didn't love me, anyway. 
She only wanted someone to play with 
But all I wanted was love to stay. 

Well, you get stuck with the wrong woman 
There's only one thing that you can do,
Just dig a hole and jump right in it, 
And pull the ground right over you. 

(Chorus) 

Well, you can have her (you can have her) 
I don't want her ( I don't want her), 
She didn't love me (didn't love me ) anyway (anyway). 
She only wanted (only wanted) 
Someone to play with (one to lay with) 
But all I wanted (all I wanted) 
Was love to stay (was love to stay). 

The girl I love, she, up and left me, 
She ran away with my best friend. 
Comes home at night just for an hour 
When day light comes she's gone again. 

(Chorus) 

Life without love is mighty empty, 
But confession's good for the soul. 
I'd rather have love that I can cling to 
Than have the world and all of it's gold. 

(You can have her) you can have her, 
(I don't want her) I don't want her, 
(She didn't love you) she didn't love me, (anyway) anyway. 
(She only wanted) she only wanted 
(Someone to play with) someone to play with 
(But all I wanted was love to stay)

You can have her (you can have her) 
I don't want her (I don't want her) 
She didn't love me (didn't love me) anyway (anyway) 
She only wanted (only wanted) 
Someone to play with (someone to play with) 
But all I want (all I want) 
All I want (all I want) 
All I want (all I want) 
All I want (all I want)
