Kenny Vernon - Pickin' Wild Mountain Berries lyrics

rate me

Where you've been where you've been it's the same ole question again

What's the use baby what's the use they ain't never gonna turn us loose

You got dirt all over your face oh and your lipstick is way out of place

Oh we gonna tell 'em what we tell 'em every time before

They won't leave us alone they want us to come home

We been busy makin' merries and pickin' wild mountain berries

We're pickin' wild mountain berries that's our excuse every time

But we've been busy makin' merries and pickin' wild mountain berries

[ banjo ]

I don't know oh I don't know if I can keep honey from lettin' it show

What's our plan tell me what's our plan now you know they won't understand

If my hair is a drippin' wet and my clothes are soakin' wet

And we didn't go skinny dippin' in a cement pond

You're my baby you're my man though your hair is sure gettin' to be a mess

There ain't no berries in your bucket well'll explain it honey as best as we can

They won't leave us alone...

We're pickin' wild mountain berries...

WE DON'T DESERVE EACH OTHER

(Jerry Lane)

« © '70 Yonah Music »

Don't look at me with love in your eyes I don't deserve a place in your life

You know me much too well you should realize

I'm not the kind of girl that you'd want for the wife

You seem to waste the tears flowin' after me

And heard the words of sadness that they say

People I meet on the street turn their backs to me

While their fingers of gossip point my way

We don't deserve each other we're not good enough for us

I can't look down my path I'm not worthy of your trust

We don't deserve each other but love will find a way

We'll pretend we're someone else and we only met today

[ harpsichord ]

We don't deserve each other...
