If I Don't Love You (Grits Ain't Groceries) Songtext
von George Jones

Well, you′ve got my heart a-feelin' used and junky
The road of love is gettin′ mighty, mighty bumpy
Tell me pretty mama
have I filled your heart with hate?

Well, with someone new, you're affiliated
And it's makin′ me feel like I′m outdated
If I don't love you
grits ain′t groceries
And that's on every poor man′s plate

Well, let me know honey
tell me what's a-matter
Let me know what′s on your mind
If I don't love you, ain't a cow in Texas
They raise ′em there all the time


Well, I don′t want to sound like I'm demandin′
And I just wanta get a little understandin'
If I don′t love you
grits ain't groceries
And that′s on every poor man's plate

Well, won't you tell me something, baby
Tell me what′s a-matter
Let me know what′s on your mind
If I don't love you, ain′t a cow in Texas
They raise 'em there all the time

Well, I don′t want to sound like I'm demandin′
I just wanna get a little understandin'
If I don't love you
grits ain′t groceries
And that′s on every poor man's plate
