I only meant to love you don't you know it babe Why couldn't you be contented with the love I gave I've given you my heart oh but you want my mind Your love scares me to death girl it's the chokin' kind You can kill a man with bullets poison or a knife But it hurts him more to take his pride and ruin his life Whatever it is you want girl oh I hope you find That hat don't fit my head it's the chokin' kind When you fall in love again girl oh take a tip from me If you don't like the peaches walk on by the tree Find what you want and keep it oh just treat it sweet and kind But let it breathe don't make your love the chokin' kind Let it breathe don't make your love the chokin' kind
