Skeeter Davis - He'll Have To Stay

What an obscure song. Skeeter was the queen of answer songs. This one to Jim Reeve's "He'll Have to Go".



Year: 1961 Album: Here's the Answer

Skeeter Davis with the answer song to Jim Reeves "He'll Have To Go".

Lyric:
I am glad you've finally called me on the phone
I've been waiting here tonight but not alone
You broke the date that we had made just yesterday
Now there's someone else who's here, he'll have to stay

I have found another love I know is true
And he holds me much more tenderly than you
Loving you's not worth the price I have to pay
Someone else is in your place, he'll have to stay

Once I loved you with all my heart
But now I must say no
You broke my heart too many times
So now you'll have to go

I can hear the jukebox playing soft and low
And you're out again with someone else, I know
My love was blind, i'm not your kind that's all I'll say
So you can hang up, I'm in his arms, he'll have to stay...
