You left me and you went away. You said that you'd be back in just a day. You've broken your promise and you've left me here alone. I don't know why you did dear but I do know that you're gone.
When we dance together my world's in disguise. It's a fairyland tale that come true. And when you look at me with those stars in your eyes. I could waltz across Texas with you.
I got the hungrys for your love and I'm waitin' in your welfare line. Well I ain't got nothing but the shirt on my back and an old two button suit. I walked out on my job about a week ago and I'm sleepin' in a telephone booth.
You left me and you went away. You said you'd be back and just that day. You've broken your promise and you left me here alone. I don't know why you did dear, but I do know that you're gone.
From the great Atlantic ocean to the wide Pacific shore. From the queen of flowing mountains to the southbelt by the shore. She's mighty tall and handsome, and known quite well by all.
I have lost my blue-eyed darling, Now I sit with a broken heart By my cabin in the Carolina hills. . Oh I loved a shiner's daughter Loved her true with all my heart Till she fell into her pappy's liquor still.
Would you lay with me in a field of stone?. If my needs were strong, would you lay with me. . Should my lips grow dry. Would you wet them, dear. In the midnight hour.
Would you hold onto my hand when I get lonely. Could I come to you whenever I'm in need. Would you always have a place for me to lay my body down. Would you be my lady in the morning would you be my lady.
Would you lay with me in a field of stone?. If my needs were strong, would you lay with me. . Should my lips grow dry. Would you wet them, dear. In the midnight hour.
You put a whole lot of lonesome in me can't you see. You gave me a forest then burnt down the trees. You preached me a sermon until I believed. Then you put a whole lot of lonesome in me.
I'd heard The Burritos out in California. Could fly higher than The Byrds. Roger McQuinn had a 12 string guitar. It was like nothing I'd ever heard. .
[Chorus]. Whiskey, whiskey take my mind. Let me leave it all behind. Take me somewhere I can find. Someone to believe. . Whiskey, whiskey be my friend.
we're gona do this song for useless. ohhhh i was in to whips'n'things she was into pain. i would beat her black and blue when she called me names. chained her to the basement wall where she went insane.
I've got this weakness for women and whiskey. It's something I just can't control. I've tried hard to shake it with out any luck. It keeps burning deep in my soul.
I never made it back to Boston. I've always been a rambling man. But by the time I got to Phoenix. She didn't quite fit in my plans. . I lost my heart in San Francisco.
Last night she made it plain she didn't want me today I woke later and alone. Tomorrow I'll be turnin' to the bottle tonight I'll be cold and all alone.
You got a one horse ranch in Texas you got a mansion in Spain. You blew in on a Greyhound bus honey you flew in your own plane. You got drunk on whiskey seen you get tipsy on wine.
Ah ah uh uh. Who's sorry now?. Who's sorry now?. Whose heart is achin' for breakin' each vow?. Who's sad and blue, who's cryin' too?. Just like I cried over you.
Whose heart are you breaking tonight?. Who's kissing and holding you tight?. Who's looking in your eyes and sighing helplessly?. Who's listening to your lies, those lies you told to me?.
Where the boys are. Someone waits for me,. A smiling face, a warm embrace,. Two arms to hold me tenderly. Where the boys are. My true love will be,. He's walking down some street in town.
