"If I Had An Ounce Of Sense" lyrics - HANK THOMPSON

If I only had an ounce of sense I'd come in out of the pain
And never let your lightning love strike my heart again
I'd swim from your flood of lies when the deluge got intense
Yes I'd come in out of the pain if I only had an ounce of sense

Now the Dutch boy plugged up the leak in the dike
And Noah built an ark we hear
And any old port in the storm will do
When the weather gets severe
I'm standing in your void of love
And the tears are about to commence
Yes I'd come in out of the pain if I only had an ounce of sense

If I only had an ounce of sense I'd come in out of the pain
Not stay in your raging sea of love just waiting for the calm again
When the heartache came my way I'd wait for the altar sign
If I only had an ounce of sense in this lovesick heart of mine

Now the Dutch boy plugged up the leak in the dike...
