A Few Old Memories Lyrics - The Grass Is Blue - Dolly Parton

(Hazel Dickens) 

Just a few old memories 

Slipped in through my door 

Though I thought I had closed it 

So tightly before 

I can't understand it 

Why it should bother my mind 

For it all belongs to another place and time

Just a few old keep-sakes 

Way back on the shelf 

No, they don't mean nothin' 

Well I'm surprised they're still left 

Just a few old love letters 

With the edges all brown 

And an old faded picture 

I keep turned upside-down 

Just a few old memories 

Going way back in time 

Well I can hardly remember 

I don't know why I'm cryin' 

I can't understand it 

Well I'm surprised myself 

First thing tomorrow morning 

I'll clean off that shelf 

Photos 

Just a few old keep-sakes 

Way back on the shelf 

No, they don't mean nothin' 

Well I'm surprised that they're left 

Just a few old love letters 

With their edges all brown 

And an old faded picture 

I keep turned upside-down
