LYRICS

Take Out Some Insurance

Rockin' With Reed Album Vee Jay release 1959
Transcriber: [email protected]
If you were to leave me baby.
Say you won't be back.
That would be the end of me.
'Cause I'd have a heart attack.

You better get some insurance on me, baby.
Take out some insurance on me, baby.
'Cause if ya ever, ever, said goodbye.
I'm gonna haul right off and die.

Darlin' an I will I love you.
Long as I got breath.
If we part I know sweetheart.
It would worry me ta death.

You better get some insurance on me, baby.
Take out some insurance on me, baby.
But if you ever, ever said goodbye.
I'm gonna haul right off and die.

Don't get no sick, an accident.
'Cause I'm healthy as can be.
Now if ya got any sense.
You'd take the hint.
And get a 'paid life', on me.

You don't know me, baby.
Like I know myself.
I couldn't live if you should give.
All your love ta someone else.

Ya better get some insurance on me, baby.
Take out some insurance on me, baby.
'Cause if ya ever, ever say goodbye.
I'm gonna haul right off an die.
