[Chorus]
If I ever stop hurtin', I'm gonna try one more time
If I ever get over this girl that's on my mind
I'm gonna keep looking for a girl who's true and kind
If I ever stop hurtin', I'm gonna try one more time

[Verse]
This is not the first time I have had a heartache
This is not the first time I have loved in vain
I keep hoping that someday, I'll find a good girl
Who won't leave me with a heart so full of pain

[Chorus]
If I ever stop hurtin', I'm gonna try one more time
If I ever get over this girl that's on my mind
I'm gonna keep looking for a girl who's true and kind
If I ever stop hurtin', I'm gonna try one more time

[Slide Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
If I ever stop hurtin', I'm gonna try one more time
If I ever get over this girl that's on my mind
I'm gonna keep looking for a girl who's true and kind
If I ever stop hurtin', I'm gonna try one more time
