It's been rough and rocky travelin', But I'm finally standin' upright on the ground. After takin' several readings, I'm surprised to find my mind`s still fairly sound. I guess Nashville was the roughest, But I know I said the same about them all. We received our education In the cities of the nation, me and Paul. Almost busted in Laredo, But for reasons that I'd rather not disclose, But if you're stayin' in a motel there and leave, Just don't leave nothin' in your clothes. And at the airport in Milwaukee, They refused to let us board the plane at all, They said we looked suspicious, But I believe they like to pick on me and Paul. I guess Nashville was the roughest, But I know I said the same about them all. We received our education In the cities of the nation, me and Paul. |

This looks like a December day.
This looks like a "time to remember" day. And I remember the spring, such a sweet tender thing. And love's summer college, Where the green leaves of knowledge, Were waiting to fall with the fall. And where September wine, Numbed the measure of time. Through the tears of October, now November's over, And this looks like a December day. This looks like a December day. It looks like we've come to the end of the way. And as my memories race back to love's eager beginning, Reluctant to play with the thoughts of the ending: The ending that won't go away. And as my memories race back to love's eager beginning, Reluctant to play with the thoughts of the ending: The ending that won't go away. And this looks like a December day. |

It's a bloody Mary morning,
Baby left me without warning Sometime in the night So I'm flyin' down to Houston Forgetting her's the nature of my flight As we taxi toward the runway With the smog and haze Reminding me of how I feel Just a country boy who's learnin' That the pitfalls of the city Are extremely real All the night life and the parties And temptation and deceit The order of the day Well it's a bloody Mary mornin' 'Cause I'm leavin' baby somewhere in LA It's a bloody Mary morning... Our golden jet is airborne And flight Fifty cuts a path Across the mornin' sky And a voice comes on the speaker Reassuring us flight Fifty Is the way to fly And a hostess takes our order Coffee tea or something stronger To start off the day Well it's a bloody Mary morning Cause I'm leavin' baby somewhere in LA It's a bloody Mary morning... |

They're working while I'm missing you those healing hands of time
And soon they'll be dismissing you from this heart of mine They'll lead me safely through the night and I'll follow as though blind My future tightly clutched within those healing hands of time They let me close my eyes just then those healing hands of time And soon they'll let me sleep again those healing hands of time So already I've reached mountain peaks and I've just begun to climb I'll get over you by clinging to those healing hands of time I'll get over you by clinging to those healing hands of time |

The morning that you left me was just another day How could I see the sorrow that had found me Then you left and told me that I was in your way And I turned and ran as heaven fell around me I stumbled through the darkness my footsteps were unsure I live within a world that had no sunshine When you left me darling my world came to an end And there was darkness on the face of the earth The stars fell out of heaven and the moon could not be found The sun was in a million pieces scattered all around Why did you ever leave me you knew how it would hurt And now there's darkness on the face of the earth |

Well, hello there My it's been a long, long time How 'm I doin' Oh, I guess I'm doing fine It's been so long now, but it seems like It was only yesterday Gee, ain't it funny, how time slips away How's your new love I hope he's doing fine Heard you told him That you'd love him 'til the end of time Now that's the same thing, that you told me Seems like just the other day Gee, ain't it funny, how time slips away Gotta go now I guess I'll see you around Don't know when though Never know when I'll be back in town But just remember what I tell you In time, you're going to pay And it's surprising how time slips away (As performed by Ray Price on "The Other Woman) Well, hello there My, it's been a long, long time How 'm I doin' Oh, I guess that I'm doin' fine It's been so long now, but it seems how That it was only yesterday Oh, ain't it funny, how time slips away Say, how's your new love I hope he's doin' fine I heard you told him That you'd love him 'til the end of time Now that's the same thing, that you told me It seems like yesterday Oh, ain't it funny, how time slips away I gotta go now I hope I'll see you around But I don't know when, though Never know when I'll be back in town But, remember, what I tell you In time, you're gonna pay Oh, ain't it funny, how time slips away |

There's a family Bible on the table each page is torn and hard to read
But the family Bible on the table will ever be my key to memories At the end of day when work was over and when the evening meal was done Dad would read to us from the family Bible And we'd count our many blessings one by one I can see us sittin' round the table when from the family Bible dad would read I can hear my mother softly singing rock of ages rock of ages cleft for me Now this old world of ours is full of trouble this old world would also better be If we'd find more Bibles on the tables and mothers singing rock of ages cleft for me I can see us sittin' round the table... Rock of ages rock of ages cleft for me |

(I'll always love you in my own peculiar way)
It would be a comfort just to know you never doubt me Even though I give you cause most every day Sometimes I think that you'd be better off without me Although I love you in my own peculiar way Don't doubt my love if sometimes my mind should wonder To a suddenly remembered yesterday 'Cause my mind could never stay too long away from you I'll always love you in my own peculiar way And though I may not always be the way you'd have me be And though my faults may grow in number day by day Let no one ever say that I've ever been untrue I'll always love you in my own peculiar way I'll always love you in my own peculiar way |

Mr Record Man I'm looking for a song I heard today
There was someone blue singing not someone who went away Just like me his heart was yearning for a love that used to be It's a lonely song about a lonely man like me There was something bout a love that didn't treat him right And he'd wake from troubled sleep and cry her name at night Mr Record Man get this record for me won't you please It's a lonely song about a lonely man like me I was driving down the highway with the radio turned on And a man that I heard singing sound so blue and all alone As I listen to his lonely song I wonder could it be Could there somewhere be another lonely man like me There was something 'bout a love... |

Well I gotta get drunk
And I sure do dread it Cause I know just what I'm gonna do I'll start to spend my money Call everybody honey And wind up singing the blues I'll spend my whole paycheck On some old wreck And brother I can name you a few But I gotta get drunk And I sure do dread it Cause I know just what I'm gonna do I gotta get drunk I just can't stay sober There's a lot of good people in town Who'd like to hear me holler See me spend my dollars And I wouldn't think of lettin' 'em down There's a lot of doctors that tell me That I'd better start slowin' it down But there's more old drunkers Than there are old doctors So I guess we'd better have another round Well now I gotta get drunk Well I gotta get drunk |

Hello walls, (Hello, hello.) How'd things go for you today? Don't you miss her. Since she up and walked away? And I'll bet you dread to spend another lonely night with me, But lonely walls, I'll keep you company. Hello window, (Hello, hello.) Well, I see that you're still here. Aren't you lonely, Since our darlin disappeared? Well look here, is that a teardrop in the corner of your pane? Now don't you try to tell me that's it's rain. She went away and left us all alone the way she planned. Guess we'll have to learn to get along without her if we can. Hello ceiling, (Hello, hello.) I'm gonna stare at you a while. You know I can't sleep, So won't you bear with me a while? We gotta all stick together or else I'll lose my mind. I gotta feelin' she'll be gone a long, long time. (Hello, hello wall.) |

My world is like a river as dark as it is deep
Night after night the past slips in and gathers all my sleep My days are just an endless stream of emptiness to me Filled only by the fleeting moments of her memories Sweet memories sweet memories hmm She slipped into the silence of my dreams last night Wondering from room to room turning on each light Her laughter spills like water from the river to the sea And I'm swept away from sadness clinging to her memories Sweet memories sweet memories hmm |

When the evenin' sun goes down You will find me hangin' 'round Oh, the night life, it ain't no good life But it's my life Many people just like me Dreamin' of old used-to-be's Oh, the night life, it ain't no good life Ah, but it's my life Listen to the blues that they're playin' Listen what the blues are sayin' Life is just another scene In this old world of broken dreams Oh, the night life, it ain't no good life But it's my life Oh, the night life ain't no good life Oh, but it's my life Yeah, it's my life |

When we dance together my world's in disguise it's a fairyland tale that come true
And when you look at me with those stars in your eyes I could waltz across Texas with you Waltz across Texas with you in my arms waltz across Texas with you Like a storybook ending I'm lost in your charms And I could waltz across Texas with you [Music Interlude] My heartaches and troubles are just up and gone the moment that you come in view And with your hand in mine dear I could dance on and on And I could waltz across Texas with you Waltz across Texas... ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By TALMADGE TUBB <i>Lyrics © ERNEST TUBB MUSIC, INC.</i> |

Turn out the lights The party's over They say that All good things must end Call it tonight The party's over And tomorrow starts The same old thing again But the crazy crazy party Never seen so many people Laughing dancing Look at you you're having fun But look at me I'm almost cryin' That don't keep her love from dyin' Misery cause for me the party's over Turn out the lights... Once I had a love undyin' I didn't keep it but I tried Life for me was just one party And then another I broke her heart so many times I had to have my parting wife I had to have my party Why broke her heart so many times But one day she said Sweetheart the party's over Turn out the lights... |

Some other world has all the sunshine
'Cause there's no sunshine in mine Out of the darkness came thunder and rain Leavin' my dreams all in vain Some other world there sleeps my darlin' There, where the skies are always blue Why don't they take me out of this world And let me find my sunshine with you? Some other world there sleeps my darlin' There, where the skies are always blue Why don't they take me out of this world And let me find my sunshine with you? |

The closer I get to my home Lord the more I want to be there
There'll be a gatherin' of loved ones and friends Lord you know I want to be there There'll be a mixture of teardrops and flowers crying and talking for hours Bout how wild that I was and if I'd listened to them I wouldn't be there Well there's old Charlie Toll they threw away the mold when they made him And Jimmy McCline it looks like the wine's finally laid him And Billie McRae that I could any day in a card game And Bessie McNeal but her tears are real I can see pain There's a mixture of teardrops... Lord thanks for ride I got a feeling inside that I know you And if you see your way you're welcome to stay 'cause I'm gonna need you There's be a mixture of teardrops.... |

Once more with feeling once more with feeling
Won't you hold me till the night fades into day Once more with feeling once more with feeling Hold me close don't let this feeling go away Sometimes myself runs back to you I just can't tell me what to do But I remember when all wrapped up tight within The shelter of my arms you used to stay Once more with feeling Once more with feeling |
