Merle Haggard Half A Man Lyrics

Half A Man Lyrics

If I only had one arm to hold you

Better yet if I had none at all

Then I wouldn't have two arms that ache for you

And I'd have one less memory to recall



If I only had one ear to listen

To the lies that you told to me

Then I would more closely resemble

The half a man that you've made of me



And if I only had one leg to stand on

Then how much, how much truer picture you'd see

And then I would more closely resemble

The half a man that you've made of me

Yeah, then I would more closely resemble

The half a man that you've made of me
