Lyrics Ernest Tubb

Ernest Tubb

Walkin' The Floor Over You

I'm walkin' the floor over you

I can't sleep a wink that is true

I'm hoping and I'm prayin'

As my heart breaks right in two

Walkin' the floor over you

Well, you left me and you went away

You said that you'd be back in just a day

Well, you've broken your promise

And you left me here alone

I don't know why you did, dear

But I do know that you're gone

I'm walkin' the floor over you

I can't sleep a wink that is true

I'm hoping and I'm prayin'

As my heart breaks right in two

Walkin' the floor over you

Now someday you may be lonesome too

Walkin' the floor is good for you

Just keep right on walkin'

And it won't hurt you to cry

Remember, that I loved you

And I will the day I die

I'm walkin' the floor over you

I can't sleep a wink that is true

I'm hoping and I'm prayin'

As my heart breaks right in two

Walkin' the floor over you
