Oh dear I'm so tired and so lonely I wonder why mommy don't come. She told me to close my pretty blue eyes and when I awoke she'd be home. I guess I'll go down and find daddy I think he went down to the store.
(chorus). Some day you'll find out what it means to be blue'Cause everybody pays for the things that they do. You broke something precious, sacred and true.
I was standing by my window yesterday morning. Without a thought of worry or of care. When I saw the postman coming up the pathway. With such a smiling face and jolly air.
From ol' Montana down to Alabama. I've been before and I'll travel again. You triflin' women can't keep a good man down. You dealt the cards but you missed the play.
Well walkin' with sorrow. through a lonely day. with those empty bottles. tryin' to ease my pain. . I'm still here drinkin'. over the good ol days. when I had my gal.
I hate to see night shadows fall. I hate to see a moon above. For it brings me dreams of days gone by. . When my darling, Lola Lee. Strolled along the shore with me.
Let me call you sweetheart. I'm in love with you. . Let me call you sweetheart. I'm in love with you. Let me hear you whisper. That you love me too. .
In a class room at the grade school just before the Holidays. Boys and girls were writing notes to Santa far away. Except a lad who sat alone his paper put away.
Now Playin' country music. it ain't like it used to be. I'm so tired of this new stuff. they're tryin' to get me to sing. That ain't no country music to me.
I left my gal in the mountains I left her standing in the rain. I went down to the depot caught myself a midnight train. Made my way down to Georgia land it in a gambling town.
Glory hallujah we are marching on. (As we sing this song and it won't be long). The man of Galilee will set us everyone free. So get in the gloryland march.
Well there's some big black clouds. that's a blowin in from the west. I've been drivin all day. Lord, I sure could use some rest. And there's a motel up ahead where I can unwind.
LAZY RIVER. Writers Hoagy Carmichael, Sid Arodin. . Up a lazy river by the old mill stream That lazy, hazy river where we both can dream Linger in the shade of an old oak tree Throw away your troubles, dream a dream with me Up a lazy river where the robin's song Wakes up in the mornin', as we roll along Blue skies up above ....everyone's in love Up a lazy river, how happy we will be, now Up a lazy river with me (instrumental break) Up a lazy river by the old mill run That lazy, lazy river in the noon day sun You can linger in the shade of that fine ole tree Throw, away your troubles, baby, dream with me Up a lazy river where the robin's song Wakes a brand new mornin' as we roll along There are blue skies up above...and as long as we're in love Up a lazy river, how happy we could be If you go up a lazy river with me Ah said with me now.....goin'up that... lazy river..... with me.
It was early in the fall and a blowin' up a squall. From the trestle you could hear the weirdest moans. With a mighty lonesome cry came a whistle from the sky.
I've been beat up bad,. I've been kicked around. I've been thrown out of every damn bar in this old town. In this old town. I guess they don't like the way we like to have our fun.
Just an old faded photograph of you. One I always will treasure more than gold. It keeps reminding me of bygone times dear. A keepsake of a love that won't grow old.
Oh tonight each happy moment that I ever spent with you. Brightens up my mem'ries of the past. Then I remember that dark moment when we said our last goodbye.
It's knowing that your door is always open and your path is free to walk. That makes me tend to leave my sleepin' bag rolled up and stashed behind your couch.
Well you never took my heart,. When I tried hard to give it to you.. And I know you can't be true,. 'Cause you wanna be roamin' free. (Free.). Now I'm lookin' straight at you,.
Have you ever heard a love song that you didn't understand. Were you ever in a teahouse on the Island of Japan. And have you ever traveled over many thousand miles.
