I slipped out of the house about sundown while mama was a washin' her hair. And you can bet your bottom dollar she'll come lookin' for me. When she'll find that I'm not there.
After sundown comes suffertime for me.. And I go to that small cafe where we used to meet.. I'll have the special for today, cause nothing matters to me,.
Someone's gotta cry when love is over and as you leave it's very plain to see. You're not about to cry for you're in love again. But someone's gotta cry so that leaves me.
Your love was a summer breeze that blew my mind and doesn't mean. And left my heart clinging desperately to a special memory. So special memory come walk with me through the fields of used to be.
Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean. The unborn grass lies waiting. For its coat to turn to green. The snowbird sings the song he always sings. And speaks to me of flowers.
Someone before me still turns you inside out. When we're together she's all you talk about. You're always wanting me to do the things she used to do. Someone before me sure left her mark on you.
Saviour again to Thy dear name we raise with one accord our parting hymn of praise. Once more we bless Thee ere our worship cease. Then lowly bending wait Thy word of peace.
Slowly I'm falling more in love with you. And slowly you're winning a heart that can be true. Now I can't hide my feelings no matter what I do. Slowly I'm falling more in love with you.
Star eyes,. That to me is what your eyes are,. Soft as stars in April skies are,. Tell me some day you'll fulfill. Their promise of a thrill.. . Star eyes,.
There's a saying old says that love is blind. Still were often told, seek and ye shall find. So I'm going to seek a certain lad I've had in mind. Looking everywhere, haven't found him yet.
Sophisticated lady tryin' to change my ways. Just because you're caught in your social maze. I think it's 'bout time that you realize. Your money and your power's got you mesmerized.
I want to live like a human. I want to see the sun and the sky again. I want to hold her hand again. Underneath the sun and the sky again.
Let me be your Swamp Snake, 'til a real one comes along. Let me be your Swamp Snake, 'til a real one comes along. I wanna be the medicine man, and I won't do you wrong.
South Carolina where the Cypress grow. White pine and hemlock all seem to know. The tidal sweep through your southern marsh. The squall last night seemed a little harsh.
Bap-ba-bap-pab-ba. Bap-ba-bap-pab-ba. Bap-ba-bap-pab-ba. Bap-ba-bap-pab-ba. Oo-whoa-oh. . It was a summer day,. When you took my cares away. When you whispered to me,.
I woke up this morning with the best intentions. Momma called i think she knew i wouldn't show. I hate for her to have to answer questions. 'bout how i'm doin', but i just couldn't go.
Slow swinging western tunes. Coming from the juke box late last June. This was the way our love song should start. Play it in reverse and you'll get yourself a broken heart.
Leaving's hard, trust me, it's really bad. It'll shake you, damn near break you, it always has. You don't go until you're praying to break even,. Until staying is worse than leaving.
Came from a broken home. Listened to bad advice. I took too many pills. Married the wrong, the wrong guy. . But then I helped him leave. Struck out on my own.
I took your hand and. And held it in my clutch. But it was never mine to hold. Your loving's something of a Midas touch. The ones you need you turn to stone.
