If It Hadn't Been For Love Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Never would've hitchhiked to Birmingham
If it hadn't been for love
Never would've caught the train to Louisiana
If it hadn't been for love
Never would've run through the blindin' rain
Without one dollar to my name
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
[Verse 2]
Never would've seen the trouble that I'm in
If it hadn't been for love
Would've been gone like a wayward wind
If it hadn't been for love
Nobody knows it better than me
I wouldn't be wishing I was free
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
[Chorus]
Four cold walls against my will
At least I know she's lying still
Four cold walls without parole
Lord have mercy on my soul
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Never would've gone to that side of town
If it hadn't been for love
Never would've took a mind to track him down
If it hadn't been for love
Never would've loaded up a .44
Put myself behind a jailhouse door
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
[Chorus]
Four cold walls against my will
At least I know she's lying still
Four cold walls without parole
Lord have mercy on my soul
[Fiddle Solo]
[Verse 4]
Never would've hitchhiked to Birmingham
If it hadn't been for love
Never would've caught the train to Louisiana
If it hadn't been for love
Never would've loaded up a .44
Put myself behind a jailhouse door
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
[Outro]
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
Spanish Lyrics Version
[Verso 1]
Nunca hubiera hecho autostop a Birmingham
Si no hubiera sido por amor
Nunca hubiera tomado el tren a Louisiana
Si no hubiera sido por amor
Nunca hubiera corrido bajo la lluvia cegadora
Sin un dólar a mi nombre
Si no hubiera sido, si no hubiera sido por amor
[Verso 2]
Nunca hubiera visto el problema en el que estoy
Si no hubiera sido por amor
Se habría ido como un viento rebelde
Si no hubiera sido por amor
Nadie lo sabe mejor que yo
No desearía ser libre
Si no hubiera sido, si no hubiera sido por amor
[Coro]
Cuatro frías paredes contra mi voluntad
Al menos sé que ella está quieta
Cuatro paredes frías sin libertad condicional
Señor, ten piedad de mi alma
[Pausa instrumental]
[Verso 3]
Nunca hubiera ido a ese lado de la ciudad
Si no hubiera sido por amor
Nunca hubiera tenido la mente de rastrearlo
Si no hubiera sido por amor
Nunca hubiera cargado un .44
Me pongo detrás de la puerta de una cárcel
Si no hubiera sido, si no hubiera sido por amor
[Coro]
Cuatro frías paredes contra mi voluntad
Al menos sé que ella está quieta
Cuatro paredes frías sin libertad condicional
Señor, ten piedad de mi alma
[Violín Solo]
[Verso 4]
Nunca hubiera hecho autostop a Birmingham
Si no hubiera sido por amor
Nunca hubiera tomado el tren a Louisiana
Si no hubiera sido por amor
Nunca hubiera cargado un .44
Me pongo detrás de la puerta de una cárcel
Si no hubiera sido, si no hubiera sido por amor
Si no hubiera sido, si no hubiera sido por amor
[Outro]
Si no hubiera sido, si no hubiera sido por amor
