Shelly's Winter Love Lyrics - Hag - Merle Haggard

I know, I'm only Shelly's winter love 

She only seems to need me now and then 

I know, I'm only Shelly's winter love 

But she's mine alone till springtime comes again 

When springtime comes I know that she'll be leavin' 

When those friends of her's start callin' her from town 

So I live and wait for Shelly's winter season 

When her troubled moments bring her back around 

I know, I'm only Shelly's winter love 

She only seems to need me now and then 

I know, I'm only Shelly's winter love 

But she's mine alone till springtime comes again 

When Shelly's painted world turns cold and stormy 

It's then she finds the need to come around 

To these arms of mine she knows are always waiting 

But she'll leave when love has thawed the winter ground
