Speak Well Of Me

Gene Watson

I'm saying goodbye like I have to do
I never thought I would say this to you
But there's just one thing I want you to do
Speak well of me to the kids, won't you?

Don't say it's your fault but please don't say it's mine
Say something happened and we ran out of time
That's not too much to ask after all we've been through
Speak well of me to the kids, won't you?

When they start asking and they will before long
Wondering what happened and why I left home
Just tell 'em I still love them like you know I do
Speak well of me to the kids, won't you?

Don't say it's your fault, oh, but please don't say it's mine
Say something happened and they'll understand in time
That's not too much to ask, I'd do it for you
Speak well of me to the kids, won't you?
Speak well of me to the kids, won't you?
