George Jones

I'd Rather Switch Than Fight

Well, I'd rather switch than fight anytime

There's a little yellow streak runnin' up this back of mine

When it's time who's a-gonna hold him tight

I'm a lover not a fighter and I'd rather a-switch than fight.

Well, I was out with a red head last night

Her boy friend caused a scene that was a sight

Then he bowed about me and I took flight

There's a whole lot more of them pretty girls

And I rather switch than fight.

Yeah, I'd rather switch than fight anytime

There's a little yellow streak runnin' up this back of mine

When it's time who's a-gonna hold him tight

I'm a lover not a fighter and I'd rather switch than fight.

Now my first wife was a lovely sight to view

But fuss and fight was all she cared to do

When she reached forty-four, well, I shoved her out the door

And I got me a couple that were twenty-two.

So, I'd rather switch than fight anytime

There's a little yellow streak runnin' up this back of mine

When it's time who's a-gonna hold him tight

I'm a lover not a fighter and I'd rather switch than fight...
