"Where I Ought to Be" Sangtekst

(Harlan Howard)

I got your wedding invitation
I'm surprised you thought of me
But I don't believe your wedding
Is just where I ought to be.

For you put your arms around her
Kissed her lips so tenderly
As she's standing there beside you
That's just where I ought to be.

Like a fool I introduced you
I said baby, meet my friend
Never thought that I could lose you
But I lost you then and then.

I took the diamond ring you gave me
And threw it way out in the sea
And I had an awful feeling
That's just where I ought to be.

Da da da de de dee da dum
Da da da de de dee da dum
Da da da de de dee da dum
Da da da de de dee da dum

Like a fool I introduced you
I said baby meet my friend
Never thought that I could lose you
But I lost you then and then.

I took the diamond ring you gave me
And threw it way out in the sea
And I had an awful feeling
That's just where I ought to be...
