Lyrics Ernest Tubb

Ernest Tubb

Help Me Make It Through The Night

Take the ribbon from your hair

Shake it loose and let it fall

Lay it soft upon my skin

Like the shadows on the wall

Come and lay down by my side

Till the early morning light

All I'm taking is your time

Help me make it through the night

I don't care who's right or wrong

I don't try to understand

Let that devil take tomorrow

Lord, tonight I need a friend

Yesterday is dead and gone

And tomorrow's out of sight

And it's sad to be alone

Help me make it through the night

I don't care who's right or wrong

I don't try to understand

Let that devil take tomorrow

Lord, tonight I need a friend

Yesterday is dead and gone

And tomorrow's out of sight

And it's sad to be alone

Help me make it through the night

Lord, it's sad to be alone

Just help me make it through the night
