High on a hilltop overlooking a city
I can see the bright lights as they gleam And somewhere you're dancing in some dingy bar room And the lure of the gay life takes the place of our dream High on a hilltop my heart cries, Oh Lord Forgive her she knows not the way And give me the power to believe and some day High on a hilltop together we'll pray I can vision a rounder with a line so smooth And a promise of riches for you But you see not the danger cause you're silly with booze And high on a hilltop I see a devil in you |

Love and honor a promise to obey sacred vows that we both made yesterday
But when someone tempted you you ease to cross the line And I'll bet love and honor never cross your mind You're the woman that once gave me her hand And I'm the fool who's tryin' hard to understand Why when someone tempted you you were so inclined And I'll bet love and honor never cross your mind Love and honor never cross your mind And love and honor is something hard to find When someone tempted you you ease to cross the line And I'll bet love and honor never cross your mind Love and honor never cross your mind... |

Hm hm hm, hm hm
Hm hm hm, hm hm I made a big mistake when, I introduced her to my friend Gave him a chance to dance with her As I watched them in the crowd, I could hear my heart beat loud 'Cause it meant goodbye to me when she said hello to him Hm hm hm, hm hm Hm hm hm, hm hm She just held on to his hand, when it was break time for the band And it was plain to see that I'd lost out So I slipped to wait and cry felt so low I could die 'Cause it meant goodbye to me when she said hello to him Hm hm hm, hm hm Hm hm hm, hm hm Is there anywhere to go where a broken heart won't show Everyone must know what's wrong with me They can tell 'bout my ways, I go 'round lost in the days 'Cause it meant goodbye to me when she said hello to him Hm hm hm, hm hm Hm hm hm, hm hm |

She was always there each time I needed you
Holding on to me like I held on to you We still don't have what you and I once had No, it's not love, but it's not bad No, it's not love, not like ours was. It's not love But it keeps love from driving me mad And I don't have to wonder who she's had No, it's not love, but it's not bad I turn to her when you leave me alone Sometimes even when you're here, and you're still gone She's slowly changing what you leave so sad No, it's not love, but it's not bad No, it's not love, not like ours was. It's not love But it keeps love from driving me mad And I don't have to wonder who she's had No, it's not love, but it's not bad |

What makes something you can't have always look so good
Why'd do something out of reach seem so fine What makes you thrill me more than any girl I know I guess it's just because you can't be mine Why can't I be contented with what belongs to me And be satisfied with what's already mine What makes a stolen moment such a precious thing I guess it's just because you can't be mine What makes me always want a woman I can't have Why the someone else's silver always shine My patience rises every time you come around And I guess it's just because you can't be mine Why can't I be contented with what belongs to me And be satisfied with what's already mine What makes a stolen moment such a precious thing I guess it's just because you can't be mine |

I'll look over things you do because I love you so,
And I'll be standing on the sidelines while you play. It's your life to live the way you want to live, And I'll look over you if you'll just let me stay. It's no fault of yours if I can't give the thrill you need, And I know someday you'll find someone who can. Though it hurts to see you stare at every guy you see, I'll look over you and try to understand. I'll look over things you do because I love you so, And I'll be standing on the sidelines while you play. It's your life to live the way you want to live, And I'll look over you if you'll just let me stay. |

Carolyn let me tell you what I heard about a man today
He didn't come home from work and he went away 'Til he came to a city, bright in the night time like day There they say he met with some women dressed in yellow and scarlet Their warm lips like a honeycomb, dripped with honey And somethin' about the smell of strange perfume Made him feel warm, and not alone Yes Carolyn a man will do that sometimes on his own And sometimes when he's lonely And I believe a man will do that sometimes out of spite But Carolyn, a man will do that always When he's treated bad at home Yes Carolyn a man will do that sometimes on his own And sometimes when he's lonely And I believe a man will do that sometimes out of spite But Carolyn, a man will do that always When he's treated bad at home |

Everybody's talking bad about Ramona
They say she's changed a lot since I've been gone They say she may not be too glad to see me 'Cause Ramona doesn't know I'm coming home But everybody's wrong about Ramona They're just going by the way she's actin' now I just can't believe the things they say about her 'Cause Ramona knows the things I wanna allow Ramona's gonna be the way she used to be And I'll be proud of her just like I was before She never was the kind to like those crowded bars And Ramona won't be seen there anymore They say I may not recognize Ramona And going by the picture they describe The life they say she's living sure don't fit her But I know she's still the same sweet girl inside Ramona's gonna be the way she used to be And I'll be proud of her just like I was before She never was the kind to like those crowded bars And Ramona won't be seen there anymore |
