Merle Haggard — Love Me When You Can

[Verse 1] I know you can't always be here with me You can't find what all you need with just one man You're hardly ever free and seldom lonely What I'm trying to say is love me when you can [Chorus] And don't feel like I expect you to be true to me Anytime you have to leave, I'll understand I don't have what all it takes to make you happy What I'm trying to say is love me when you can [Verse 2] Let me be the one you sometimes come to You just barely have the time for one more friend I'll be satisfied with any crumb you throw me What I'm trying to say is love me when you can [Chorus] Don't feel like I expect you to be true to me Anytime you have to leave, I'll understand And I'll be satisfied with any crumb you throw me What I'm trying to say is love me when you can
