Lyrics Hank Williams

Hank Williams

Swing Wide Your Gate of Love

Swing wide your gate of love, open wide up your heart

I knew when I first met you that you'd be my sweetheart

Swing wide your gate of love and please don't let me fall

I know you're gonna love me after all

Swing wide the gate and leave it open

Towards the center of your heart I'll be bound

And I'll mend the heart that has been broken

I'm not the kind of guy to let you down

So, swing wide your gate of love, open it for me

For you are the one I want, my darlin', can't you see

Make up your mind to like me and to be my turtledove

I love you, so swing wide your gate of love

Swing wide the gate and leave it open

Towards the center of your heart I'll be bound

And I'll mend the heart that has been broken

I'm not the kind of guy to let you down

Swing wide your gate of love, open wide up your heart

I knew when I first met you that you'd be my sweetheart

Swing wide your gate of love and please don't let me fall

I know you're gonna love me after all
