One More Reason Lyrics - Singles - Bryant Richard

Richard Bryant 

I'd need a thousand reasons 

To pack my trunk and leave this town behind 

And since that woman put a man between us 

I'm up to reason number nine hundred and ninety-nine 

I know this town from way back 

My friends are here. I know their children's names 

But circumstance is piling high around me 

That gives me cause to think I'm in a losing game 

Reasons one through twenty tell me that work here is scarce 

Twenty-one through thirty deal with bad business affairs 

Thirty-one through nine hundred and ninety-nine 

Concern the above mentioned woman and a former friend of mine 

One more reason at the most 

Just one more reason and I'm ghost 

One more reason and I'm gone 

She was my heart's desire 

My blood would know whenever she came near 

But I am a man of suspicious nature 

They sent me a card from Kansas that served to confirm all my worst fears 

Somebody drop their hat and I'll be on my way 

Somebody look at me funny and I will not stay 

The heart has gone out of this town of mine 

My friends are sympathetic but I'm feeling much maligned 

One more reason at the most 

Just one more reason and I'm ghost 

One more reason and I'm gone
