let me be the first to go lyrics

Lord I've never asked for any favors
And I'm not to deserving yes I know
But when it's parting time for me and baby
Please let me be the first to go

Don't take the heart out of our family
Me and the kids would miss her so
I wouldn't want to live one day without her
So let me be the first to go

This happy home we share is her creation
It's warm and cheerful from her happy glow
She has so much more to give than I do
So let me be the first to go

Don't take the heart out of our family...
