I'd Have To Be Crazy (To Fall Out Of Love With You) Lyrics

I'd have to be crazy
to stop all my singing
and never play music again.

You'd call me a fool
if I grabbed up a top hat
and ran out to flag down the wind.

I'd have to be weird
to grow me a beard
just to see what the rednecks would do.

But I'd have to be crazy
plum out of my mind
to fall out of love with you.

I know I've done weird things
I told people I heard things
when silence was all out of bounds.

Been days when it pleased me
to be on my knees
followings ants as they crawl across the ground

Been insane on a train
but I'm still me again
and the place where I hold you is true

So I know I'm alright
cause I'd have to be crazy
to fall out of love with you

You know I
(now I don't intend to)
But should there come a day,
when I say that I don't love you
You can lock me away ay ay.

It sure would be dingy
to live in an envelope
waiting alone for a stamp

You'd swear I was loco
to rub for a genie
while burning my hand on the lamp

And I may not be normal
but nobody is
so I'd like to say 'fore I'm through

I'd have to be crazy
plum out of my mind
to fall out of love with you

The song was written by Steve Fromholz, who sang along on the recording. It's tricky to sing since nothing in the lyric repeats. What repeats is the chords, even though they have a jazzy major 7th chord which is right down Willie's avenue. Easy to play too.
