Slowly Lyrics - Hank Locklin

She called me up all excited said she had a date 

With him Saturday night and she just can't wait 

I thought about his reputation & the things that he's done 

I woudn't wish him on anyone 

I said to her when you're with him better watch your step 

Because I know this boy he's got a pretty bad rep 

I only hope he doesn t end up bringing you down 

He's been breaking hearts all over town 

Slowly you can pick yourself back up 

When that situation's got you down again 

Slowly you can pick your self back up 

Girl you've got to save it for another day 

Because you don't need him anyway 

It's just a game they play 

I know this won't come easy girl 

I know that it's hard 

And deep down inside it leaves an awful scar 

And to say I told you so 

Won't help to ease the pain inside you so 

Just remember that there's plenty of boys out there 

Who could treat you much better 

And remember I care 

it just won't do to see you hurting so bad 

I knew that boy was going to leave you sad
