Lyrics I’m Gonna Settle Down - Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs

I’m Gonna Settle Down

Every night I’m all alone never place to call my own
Don’t have no one to love me anymore
I’m gonna pack up my grip and take a long long trip back to the one that I love
so
So long to go back to my darlin' back to the one I love so well
I know she’ll be my wife when we’ll settle down for life
For she’s the one who means the world to me
I can’t forget the day I laughed and went away
You told me I’d be sorry some old day
I found it to be true so I’m headin' back to you
Sweetheart I’m tired and I’m gonna settle down
So long to go back…
When I get back to her my ramblin' days are o’er
We’ll build a little cottage on the hill
We’ll think of days gone by sweetheart just you and I
And now we’ll live so happy evermore
So long to go back…
