I thought I had seen pretty girls in my time but that was before I met you
I never saw one that I wanted for mine but that was before I met you I thought I was swinging the world by the tail I thought I could never be blue I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved but that was before I met you I wanted to ramble and always be free but that was before I met you I said that no woman could ever hold me but that was before I met you I thought I was swinging... They tell me I must reap just what I have sown but darling I hope it's not true For once I made plans about living alone but that was before I met you I thought I was swinging... But that was before I met you |

So I feel so blue sometimes I wanna die
And so I've got a broken heart so what They say that time will heal all wounds in mice and men And I know that someday I'll forget and love again But just between you and me I've got my doubts about it But just between you and me You're too much to forget So I've lost the only girl I ever loved And so I've never felt so low so what I'll just tell myself each time I wanna cry That someday time will dry the teardrops from my eyes But just between you and me I'm not so sure about it Cause just between you and me You're too much to forget You're too much to forget |

When all your loves have ended
When all your friends have flown Who'll be around to want you When all your loves have gone Only a fool would do it After the way you've done How many fools would have you I know one This fool keeps wondering Why he fell in love at all But you might need this fool Around in case you fall After the party's over And you've had your fill of fun If you need a fool to forgive you I know one You never know, you might be lonely When all your loves have missed It wouldn't hurt to keep An extra fool on your list After your heart's been broken And it needs a place to run If you'll take a fool who loves you I know one Yes, I know one I know one |

Does my ring hurt your finger when you go out at night
When I bought it for you darling it seemed to be just right Should I take it to the jeweler so it won't fit so tight Does my ring hurt your finger when you go out at night Did you enjoy yourself last night dear how was the show You know that I don't mind it when you go I understand sometimes we all need time alone But why do you always leave your ring at home Does my ring hurt your finger when you're away from me I'm so proud when you wear it for all the world to see Should I take it to the jeweler so it won't fit so tight Does my ring hurt your finger when you go out at night Does my ring hurt your finger when you go out at night |

Before you take another step there's something you should know
About the years ahead and how they'll be You'll be living in a world where roses hardly ever grow Cause all I have to offer you is me There'll be no mansion waiting on the hill with crystal chandeliers Then there'll be no fancy clothes for you to wear Everything I have is standing here in front of you to see All I have to offer you is me [Steel] Sweetheart I'll give you all my love in every way I can But make sure that's what you want while you're still free The only gold I have for you is in this wedding band Cause all I have to offer you is me There'll be no mansion... |

Sometimes I want to throw my arms around you
Then I tremble at the thought of giving in Because I know how much it costs to love you And I'm so afraid of losing you again [Chorus] Being close to you revives the sorrow That wakes me up and tells me I can't win I'd love to wake up in your arms tomorrow But I'm so afraid of losing you again If heaven were to hear my heart's confessions Wanting you would be my greatest sin But I'm glad you're no longer my possession 'Cause I'm so afraid of losing you again [Chorus] I'm so afraid of losing you again |

Rain drippin' off the brim of my hat,
It sure looks cold today. Here I am a-walkin' down 66, Wish she hadn't done me this way. Sleepin' under a table in a roadside park, A man could wake up dead; But it sure seemed warmer than it did Sleepin' in my king-size bed. [Chorus] Is anybody goin' to San Antone or Phoenix, Arizona? Any place is all right as long as I can forget I've ever known her. Wind whippin' down the neck of my shirt Like I aint got nothin' on; But I'd rather fight the wind and rain Than what I was fightin' at home. [Chorus] Yonder comes a truck with the U.S. mail For people writin' letters back home. Well, tomorrow she'll want me back again But I'll still be just as gone. [Chorus] |

Have you ever been awaken by the crowing of a rooster
While the night is still heavy on the ground And the voice of Uncle Ben seems to break the morning silence Bringing lights to windows all around Well it's time to rise and shine and start another hard work day Get the cows in and start the milking chores It's nice to think about it maybe even visit but I wonder could I live there anymore [ steel - fiddle ] Something bout the smell of cornbread cooking on a wood stove Seems to bring a picture to my mind Of a little three room house with mama in the kitchen But she can't stop to talk ain't got the time She's a fixing dad his supper he's a working over time Tryin' to pay our bill at the grocery store It's nice to think about it maybe even visit but I wonder could I live there anymore [ steel - fiddle ] As I think about my childhood and of my old hometown I don't really miss them like before It's nice to think about it maybe even visit but I wonder could I live there anymore |

I Can't Believe That You've Stopped Loving Me
Tomorrow I'll say Happy Birthday darling And surprise you with a gift when I come home Then my forgetful arms will reach out for you I can't forget you just because you're gone [Chorus:] I can't believe that you stopped loving me It's too much for me to understand How can anything so real become a dream I can't believe that you've stopped loving me I sifted all the reasons why you left me And I've gone back and relived all the love we had For every tear we lost I found a thousand smiles And the good times always outweighed the bad [Chorus:] I can't believe that you stopped loving me It's too much for me to understand How can anything so real become a dream I can't believe that you've stopped loving me I can't believe that you've stopped loving me |

Down at the railroad station there's people gettin' on
Some are a goin' north some are a goin' south I'm just goin' to be gone Some people are born to be takers others just want to give Some people live just to love but I just love to live For I was just born to be exactly what you see Nothing more or less I'm not the worst or the best I just try to be exactly what you see today and every day I'm just me When people say their life is rough I wonder compared to what Some are wantin' more and more's gettin' less I just want what I've got Some want to live on a hill others down by the sea Some want to live inside high walls I just want to live free For I was just born... Oh I was just born to be exactly what you see today and every day I'm just me |

Whenever I chance to meet
some old friends on the street They wonder how does a man get to be this way I've always got a smilin' face any time and any place And everytime they ask me why I just smile and say You've got to kiss an angel good mornin' And let her know you think about her when you're gone Kiss an angel good mornin' and love her like a devil when you get back home Well people may try to guess the secret of happiness But some of them never learn it's a simple thing The secret I'm speaking of is a woman and a man in love And the answer is in the song that I always sing You've got to kiss an angel good mornin' And let her know you think about her when you're gone Kiss an angel good mornin' and love her like a devil when you get back home You've got to kiss an angel good mornin' And let her know you think about her when you're gone Kiss an angel good mornin' and love her like a devil when you get back home |

Baby it's gonna take a little bit longer for me to ever get you off of my mind
Baby it's gonna take a little bit longer cause I've been lovin' you a long long time People try to tell me that it won't be long till I won't even miss you anymore But I can tell them it must be something mighty wrong every day I want you even more And baby it's gonna take... [ guitar - steel ] They say this lonely feeling it'll go away but after all this time now it ain't gone Every weaken moment and every night and day just seems to keep on keeping on And baby it's gonna take... Yes I've been lovin' you a long long time |
