As Good as a Lonely Girl Can Be Songtext
von Conway Twitty & Loretta Lynn

(Bobby Harden)

Tell me darling have I been away too long
I was wrong to leave but now I′m coming home
Have you missed me, I kind of hope you would
And jokingly I ask are you being good.

I'm being good as lonely girl can be
And there′s no other place on earth I'd rather be
To lie here beside him oh Lord how sweet love can be
I'm being good as lonely girl can be.


It was just too much for me I should′ve known
You were just too much a woman to me alone
I just realized I love you much too late
And Lord it′s killing me to hear you say.

I'm being good as lonely girl can be
And there′s no other place on earth I'd rather be
To lie here beside him oh Lord how sweet love can be
I′m being good as lonely girl can be.

Tell me darling, have I been away too long
I know I was wrong to leave but now all I wanna do
Is come back home
You're just too much to me I know I should′ve known
You were just too much woman for me to leave alone...
