No matter who I'm dreaming with honey you start walking in my sleep
Then I wake up and startin' makin' up a lie why I should leave
Like an old time friend I squeeze her hand and I walk away unsatisfied
Another try another cry another hand shakin' goodbye
I laughed a lot with Mary Ann I cried with Melody
And Rose Marie was more than just a little close to Jerry Lee
I can't count the hearts I've stepped on because of loving her
Another try another cry another hand shakin' goodbye
[ piano ]
I laughed a lot...
Another try another cry another hand shakin' goodbye (have mercy baby)
