Love Somebody To Death Lyrics - Merle Haggard

I ain't never robbed or beat up on nobody 

I ain't never failed no lie detector test 

But tomorrow I'm gonna be the town's most wanted man 

But tonight I'm gonna love somebody to death 

I'm gonna shave shower shine my shoes and shampoo 

Break out my pinstriped suit with the matching vest 

Climb in my four hundred horse wide track rollin' apartment van 

Tonight I'm gonna lay some heart to rest 

Tomorrow my face will be all over the post office wall 

The town will put a price upon my head 

I'm gonna be some happy lady's most wanted man 

'Cause tonight I'm gonna love somebody to death 

Gonna grab her, kiss her, squeeze her 

Please her and show her no mercy 

Premeditated lovin' at its best 

It'll take seven days to get the smile off the corpus delighted 

Yeah, tonight I'm gonna love somebody to death 

See that shady character smilin' on the six o'clock news 

Front page color Associated Press 

You'll be looking at some happy lady's most wanted man 

'Cause tonight I'm gonna love somebody to death 

I'm gonna grab her, kiss her, squeeze her 

And baby it's gonna be you think about it now
