My soul is lost so lonely and so cold. Just like a lamb that has strayed from the fold. Across the barren waste of sin I roam. Oh gentle shepherd hear my cry and lead me home.
Hey Mr ting-a-ling steel guitar man. Play me some lonesome as sad as you can. My baby has left me for some other man. Play on Mr ting-a-ling steel guitar man.
There's a spot in me heart which no colleen may own. There's a depth in me soul never sounded or known. There's a place in my mem'ry my life that you fill.
Sweetest little fellow everybody knows. Don't know what to call him but he's mighty like a rose. Looking at his mommy with eyes so shiny blue. Makes you think that heaven dear is coming close to you.
Memories memories dreams of love so true. O'er the sea of memories I'm drifting back to you. . Childhood days wildwood days among the birds and me. You left me alone but still you're my own.
I'm satisfied with just a cottage below. A little silver and a little gold. But in that city where the ransomed will shine. I want a gold one that's silver lined.
Making heartaches you're that kind of girl. You'll keep on making heartaches I can tell. . I should have to wonder where you are tonight. You said you'd always be here by my side.
And I wake up in the mornin'. With my hair down in my eyes and she says hi. And I stumble to the breakfast table. While the kids are goin' off to school goodbye.
You look so lovely lying there with dreamland's grin up on your face. Your golden curls in disarray upon your starched white pillow case. The soft blue satin covers pulled up tight around your lovely throat.
That voice you hear inside is just your conscience. . Why do you bother me why can't you let me be. It's all your fault you know why did you hurt me so.
Just like a fool I asked him if he'd go with us tonight. And like a fool I let him dance with you and hold you tight. I knew if you'd be thrilled by all those whispered things you've heard.
Jesus Saviour pilot me over life's tempestuous sea. Unknown waves before me roll hiding rock and treach'rous shoal. Chart and compass come from Thee Jesus Saviour pilot me.
I'm throwing rice at the girl that I love. After she just said I do. I'm throwing rice with a smile on my lips. But my heart is breaking in two. . Oh she was my gal he was my pal.
Oh I'm thinking tonight of my blues eyes who is sailing far over the sea. Oh I'm thinking tonight of you only and I wonder if you ever think of me. . Could been better for us both had we never.
The one that we're tied to won't know who's on the phone. If I'll call you Charlie and I'll call you Joan. . We can't be seen together though we love each other so.
I'll always be blue when I think of things we used to do. I'll always be sad when I remember the good times we had. I'll cry when I see all those love letter you wrote to me.
Come over here darling lay your head on my shoulder. I've waited all day to do what I'm gonna do. Put your warm arms around me while I whisper softly.
I love you so much it hurts me darling that's why I'm so blue. I'm so afraid to go to bed at night afraid of losing you. I love you so much it hurts me and there's nothing I can do.
Hello pretty lady I'm wondering why. You sit there alone with a tear in your eye. You're drinking and thinking of someone it seems. I'm sure he has hurt you and shattered your dreams.
I listened when they said that things about you. And when they told me I should leave you on the run. And they said just walk right out there's nothing to it.
