If It Hadn't Been For Love
I never would have hitchhiked to BirminghamIf it hadn't been for loveI never would have caught the train to LouisianaIf it hadn't been for loveNever would have run through the blinding rainWithout one dollar to my nameIf it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
I never would have seen the trouble that I'm inIf it hadn't been for loveI would have been gone like a wayward windIf it hadn't been for loveNobody knows it better than meI wouldn't be wishing I was freeIf it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
(Chorus)Four cold walls against my willAt least I know he's lying stillFour cold walls without paroleLord have mercy on my soul
Never would have gone to that side of townIf it hadn't been for loveNever would have took a mind to track him downIf it hadn't been for love.I never would have loaded up a 44Put myself behind a jail house doorIf it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
(Chorus)
I never would have hitchhiked to BirminghamIf it hadn't been for loveI never would have caught the train to LouisianaIf it hadn't been for loveI never would have loaded up a 44Put myself behind a jail house doorIf it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for loveIf it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for loveIf it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
