Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I pulled into Nashville, Tennessee
But you wouldn't even come around to see me
And since you're headin' up to Carolina
You know I'm gonna be right there behind ya
[Chorus]
'Cause I always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
I always have to steal my kisses from you
[Verse 2]
Now I love to feel that warm southern rain
Just to hear it fall is the sweetest sounding thing
And to see it fall on your simple country dress
It's like heaven to me, I must confess
[Chorus]
'Cause I always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
I always have to steal my kisses from you
[Instrumental]
Now I've been hangin' around you for days
But when I lean in you just turn your head away
Woah, I know you didn't mean that
She said, 'I love the way you think, but I hate the way you act"
[Chorus]
'Cause I always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
I always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
I always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
Always have to steal my kisses from you
