that would be the end of me

'cause i'd have a heart attack

'cause if ya ever

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

but if you ever

ever said goodbye

i'm gonna haul right off and die

'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

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
