Lyrics Jerry Reed – Not As A Sweetheart (But Just As A Friend)

Please don’t hang up on me honey I’ve just called to say
That I’m leavin’ and I won’t be back again
And ask you if you’d see me and be with me one more time
Not as a sweetheart but just as a friend

Not as a sweetheart for I know your love is gone for me
But just for old times sake leave me a memory do this for me
And please would you take my hand just kiss me one more time
Not as a sweetheart but just as a friend

Well thanks darlin’ anyway no you can’t break your date
And planes can’t wait and broken hearts can’t mend
So bye bye now you be a sweet girl and honey think of me sometimes
Not as a sweetheart but just as your friend

Not as a sweetheart for I know your love has gone for me
But for the sake of my aching heart say something sweet to me for I used to be
Your one and only and it hurts to see it end
Not as a sweetheart but just as a friend
Not as a sweetheart but just as a friend
