Can't Have One Without the Other

Adkins Trace


Used to think that love would be so simple 
Just happy ever after one another 
Sometimes it's hot to trot 
And sometimes it's the old cold shoulder 
Oh, you can't have one without the other, brother 
No, you can't have one without the other 

Sometimes you'll think she's sent from heaven 
A best friend, confidante and lover 
Oh, there are times that little angel 
She ain't nothin' but a devil woman 
Oh, you can't have one without the other, brother 
No, you can't have one without the other 

She can be such a good girl 
But, she can be so bad 
Put you on top of the world 
Cut you down so fast 
Sometimes she's my baby 
Sometimes she's a mother 
Oh, you can't have one without the other, brother 
No, you can't have one without the other 

I wouldn't take a million dollars for her 
Or pay a single dime for ten more of her 
I guess there's a heads and tails 
To every lucky silver dollar 
Oh, you can't have one without the other, brother 
No, you can't have one without the other 

Oh, she can make the time fly 
She can be a drag 
Put you on cloud nine 
Turn to rain so fast 
Sometimes she's my baby 
Sometimes she's a mother 
Oh, you can't have one without the other, brother 
No, you can't have one without the other 

Oh, you can't have one without the other, brother 
No, you can't have one without the other
