Tom T. Hall - When Nobody Wants Your Body Anymore

You were meant for me and there ain't no two ways about it
Even on my darkest days oh they couldn't make me doubt it
Someday things are gonna be the way they were before
When nobody wants your body anymore.

Leave me, I don't worry darling, you'll be back
Honey, I'm not bragging I'm just statin' facts
The ocean always brings each piece of driftwood back to shore
When nobody wants your body anymore.

--- Instrumental ---

I know they have you now sweetheart they don't know what they got
Heaven is still heaven when the weather ain't so hot
When all is done that will be done you'll knock upon my door
When nobody wants your body anymore.

Leave me, I don't worry darling, you'll be back
Honey, I'm not bragging I'm just statin' facts
The ocean always brings each piece of driftwood back to shore
When nobody wants your body anymore.

Unless somebody wants my body before...
