Hard One To Lose

She said if she didn't get a record deal
She was leaving in the spring
She came up here with ambition
She wanted to sing
These record labels in town
They won't give her a chance
They tell her the business is down
Same old song and dance

Hard One To Lose
If she gets on that plane back to Texas
Bad news
She's a Hard One To Lose
Where would I go after her?
What would I do?

She started out singing my songs
She reads my mind
I fell in love with her
One verse at a time
I told her how I feel
I asked her not to go away
I'll do anything it takes
To make her stay

Hard One To Lose
If she says goodbye to Nashville
Blues blues
She's a Hard One To Lose
Where would I go after her?
What would I do?

I'm not gonna let her go
I'm not gonna let it happen

Hard One To Lose
If she gets on that plane back to Texas
Bad news
She's a Hard One To Lose
Where would I go after her?
What would I do?

Jim, I like it and I can "hear" it with music! Another very good song--great, as a matter of fact.

Thanks, Frankie. It's about a girl I recorded with in Nashville. She was ready to leave town, and I talked her into staying.
