They tried their best to drag him out
of a courthouse down in Montgomery
And now they wanna kick him out of school
And take him off our money
They can take those words off of
Paper and stone
But he ain't gone, no

Chorus:
He ain't the leavin' kind
He'd never walk away
Even from those who don't believe
And wanna leave him behind
He ain't the leavin' kind

She stayed mad at him for a lot of years
For takin' her husband
Started losin' her faith
And thinkin' that her life meant nothin'
But when she looks at those kids she raised all by herself
She knows she had some help, yeah
She knows

Repeat Chorus

No matter what you do
No matter where you go
He's always right there with you

Even from those you don't belive
And wanna leave him behind
He ain't the leavin' kind
No, no

He ain't the leavin' kind
He ain't the leavin' kind
Woo, woo
He ain't the leavin' kind
