you ask me to

Waylon Jennings

Long ago and far away
In my ol' common labor shoes
I turned the world all which a way
Just because you asked me to.

Like unto no other
Feel simple love is simple true
There's no end to what I'd do
Just because you asked me.

Let the world call me a fool
But if things are right with me and you
That's all that matters
And I'll do anything you asked me to.

Knowing how much I love you
And after all that I've been through
I'd turn and walk away from you
Just because you asked me to.
(Lord. I hope you'll never do.)

Let the world call me a fool
But if things are right with me and you
That's all that matters
And I'll do anything you asked me to.
