Spring is just around the bend
Ain't no time to go darlin'
Fields need plowin' and the fences mend
Ain't no time to go darlin'
Stay with me, a little bit longer

Stay with me, if you can
Stay with me, a little bit longer
Ain't no time to go darlin'
The children need your guiding hand

Ain't no time to go darlin'
Your son's too young to be a man
Ain't no time to go darlin'
Stay with me, a little bit longer

Stay with me, if you can
Stay with me, a little bit longer
Ain't no time to go darlin'
I ain't as strong as you think I am

Ain't no time to go darlin'
And I'll be doin' the best I can
Ain't no time to go darlin'
Stay with me, a little bit longer
Stay with me, if you can
Stay with me, a little bit longer

Ain't no time to go darlin'
I know heaven called your name
Ask the Lord if he'll please wait
Stay with me, a little bit longer

Stay with me, if you can
Stay with me, a little bit longer
Ain't no time to go darlin'
