It was a typical black tie country club scene. The band was playin Girl from Ipanema. It was like a bad dream, yall. . Had a plate with a cracker and a piece of cheese.
Chorus:. I feel sorry for the next girl in line, whoa. She aint got a chance in hell. The last one taught me not to let my guard down. Yeah, Ive learned my lesson well, Im not lovin anymore.
There wasn't nobody that ever liked him farless loved him. If you never got the chance to get to know him you wouldn't thought too much of him. Folks said he was half mean if that was so that's all the mean he had to be.
Winter's closing in. This house is getting cold. Living with your memory. is like living with a ghost. I'm ready for these lonely nights to end. But I'm just not ready for love again..
No one raised their hand that day. When they asked for volunteers. He got picked out by default. He was the only daddy there. . They said we know what you're thinking.
It's not what I had in mind. Lovin' you now that you're no longer mine. No, it's not what I had in mind. Letting you go and then crossin' that line. .
We're not long for this world. We're not long for this world. And the way I can tell is. I know you too well. We're not long for this world. . I know the words that you say.
Came home a little early last night shed not a tear when I turned out the light. No I don't hurt like I used to. Didn't wait for the knock on my door drawer in the room ain't empty anymore.
Nobody Wants to Go to the Moon Anymore. I don't know a soul that wants to visit the moon. That bruise in the sky, that busted balloon. A big rotten egg trashing up the sky.
The first time you hurt me I thought I'd died. The second time it happened I cried all night. They say a heart can stand just so much grief and pain. But a fool in love keeps lovin' they never change.
And my Lord, He said unto me. Do you like my garden so fair. You may live in this garden, if you keep the grasses green. And I'll return in the cool of the day.
What a surprise wearing your disguise on the telephone line. I know it pleased you to know I needed you and your time. You play the game not saying either way but you know.
Momma is cryin in the kitchen. Even the dog can feel the chill. She lays her head down on the table. Next to a stack of unpaid bills. . Oh, Daddy puts his arms around her.
Time, you should set aside some time for yourself. Time for just you and no one else. Time to figure out what's for the best, for both of us. . Home, home is where I always want to be.
Just another lazy southern Sunday. The time is hanging in the air. There's a hoot owl softly calling. Off in the distance somewhere. . There's nothing left for me to go back home to.
One of these days their gonna lay me down in the cold hard ground where the sun never shines and I've got to say that I just. can't wait till i see those gates and Heaven is mine.
Catching Babe Ruth, catching Roger Maris. The way you caught my eye in Paris, Tennises. Fell in seduction, well I'm seduced. You sell a war then we sell the truth.
That house on the hill is long gone. Now she's living in a trailer with an Astroturf lawn. Got three little kids and no one to help. Trying to be momma and daddy all by herself.
Remember when pocket change was all we had. And all those calls from the corner phone booth collect to mom and dad. And that old worn out couch we called our bed.
Born upon the winds of tomorrow, sail across the water to the shore. Taking everything that they can give us, more than our fathers had before. You and I don't ask a lot of questions, questions don't get asked here very much.
