I like to have fun, I never bother no one. I just drink at the bar everyday. But she got enough of the things that I love. And she just walked away. .
I've found a girl who's got her own money. She's so good lookin' that it ain't funny. She's got a self-a-beauty school diploma. Runnin' up to Miss Oklahoma.
A good Christian raising. A family foundation. Mom and dad who taught us. Right from wrong. . Even through the hard times. We stayed close together. That's the solid ground.
You can talk about the weather or the Mayor's sister. You can talk about small talk. You can walk the city limits in a matter of minutes. Talk about taking a walk.
My daddy taught me in this country everyone's the same. You work hard for your dollar and you never pass the blame. When it don't go your way. . Now I see all these big shots whinin' on my evening news.
She just started liking cheatin' songs. And what's bothering me. I don't know if it's the cheatin' she likes. Or just the melodies. . I've never had any reason to doubt her.
Ever since the days of old. Men would search for wealth untold. They'd dig for silver and for gold. And leave the empty holes. And way down south in the Everglades.
Some spend a lifetime searching for gold. Crossing the ocean, like in days of old. And now that I've found you I realize. That you are forever where my heart lies.
Grab your coat, honey, grab your hat. This train is leaving and it ain't comin' back. Don't need a ticket, can't you understand?. You're on your way to the Promised Land.
We took the honeymoon bus to Vegas. You said, "Honey this is gonna be fun". You hopped the ring and bid a black seventeen. We flew to France on the money you won.
It's Friday night, baby, get ready, set, go. I'm gonna take you to the Krystal and a picture show. . Well, the sky's the limit, there's no price too high.
It's a late night show on the radio. Going down the road with the Wolfman. Lightning bugs all around moonlight shining down. On little sleepy towns down in the flatlands.
If you see me talkin' to myself. I'm just missin' her again. If I seem a little lost, a little upset. I'm just missin' my best friend. . I thought I'd be over it by now.
A one way ticket is all we need. No return, no guarantee. Straight ahead and don't look back. This train is on a one way track. . Oh life, it's a precious thing.
I heard it on the radio and 6 o' clock news. Said, "You'd better not drive when you get on the booze". The sheriff was on TV an a shakin' his hand. Said, We're really crackin' down you better understand.
You shouldn't wade out in deep water when you don't know how to swim. He told you it was over and like a fool you followed him. Into a whirlpool of emotion, spinnin' out of control.
It's been years,. Since you said goodbye.. When you left,. You left a memory. I thought would never die.. . It took time,. But I found someone,. Who made me forget..
I got a little change in my pocket goin' jingling. Wanna call ya on the telephone baby, give you a ring. But each time we talk, I get the same old thing.
Granny's on the front porch spittin' in a cup. Tryin' to fix a nightgown that the dog tore up. Mama's old clothesline had finally bit the dust. Brother got a broomstick and propped it back up.
First date first kiss well I never will forget the way you looked that night. Parked out cross town watchin' the stars fall down. Girl your hair was soft and brown.
