Brass buttons, green silks and silver shoes
Warm evenings, pale mornings, bottle of blues And the tiny golden pins that she wore up in her hair Brass buttons, green silks and silver shoes My mind was young until she grew My secret thoughts known only by the few It was a dream much to real To be leaned against too long All the time I think she knew Her words still dance inside my head Her comb still lies beside my bed And the sun comes up without her It just doesn't know she's gone Ooh, but I remember everything she said Brass buttons, green silks and silver shoes Warm evenings, pale mornings, bottle of blues And the tiny golden pins that she wore up in her hair Brass buttons, green silks and silver shoes ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By GRAM PARSONS <i>Lyrics © BUG MUSIC</i> |

Time can pass and time can heal
But it don't ever pass the way I feel You went away a long time ago And why you left I never knew The lonely days and lonely nights Guess the world knows I ain't feelin' right And when you're gone the hours pass so slow And now I'm still feeling blue And baby Since you've walked out of my life I never felt so low Can't help but wonder why you had to go There are many girls but I can't say They come and go but still I feel this way And ever since the day you said goodbye No one treats me like you used to do I hope you're out and happy now Doing up the town cause you know how Every time I hear your name I want to die And now I'm still feeling blue All right And baby Since you've walked out of my life I never felt so low Can't help but wonder why you had to go I hope you're out and happy now Doing up the town cause you know how Every time I hear your name I want to die And now I'm still feeling blue And now I'm still feeling blue ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By GRAM PARSONS <i>Lyrics © BUG MUSIC</i> |

She she came from the land of the cotton
Land that was nearly forgotten by everyone And She worked and she slaved so hard A big old field was her back yard in the delta sun Oh, but she sure could sing Oh, she sure could sing Then He looked down and he took a little pity The whole town swore he decided He'd help her some And he didn't mind if she wasn't very pretty For deep inside his heart he knew She was the only one Oh but she sure could sing Yea she sure could sing She had faith, she had believing She led all the people together in singing And she prayed every night to the lord up Ebove Hallelujah oh hallelujah They use to walk singing songs by the river Even when she knew for sure She had to go away And she never knew what her life had to give her And never had to worry about it For one single day My but she sure could sing Oh yes sure could sing She had faith, she had believing Led all the people together in singing And she prayed every night to the lord up above Hallelujah oh hallelujah She she came from the land of the cotton Land that was nearly forgotten by everyone And She worked and she slaved so hard A big old field was her back yard in the delta sun Oh, but she sure could sing My, she sure could sing Oh, but she sure could sing Oh, but she sure could sing ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By SHEARING, GEORGE <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |

Words and Music by Tompall Glaser and Harlan Howard
Well I sold the farm to take my woman where she used to be We left our kin and all our friends back there in Tennessee And I bought those one way tickets she had often begged me for And they took us to the streets of Baltimore Well her heart was filled with gladness when she saw those city lights She said the prettiest place on earth was Baltimore at night Well a man feels proud to give his woman what she's longing for And I kinda liked the streets of Baltimore Then I got myself a factory job, I ran an old machine And I bought a little cottage in a neighborhood serene And every night when I'd come home with every muscle sore She'd drag me through the streets of Baltimore Well I did my best to bring her back to what she used to be Then I soon learned she loved those bright lights more than she loved me Now I'm a going back on that same train that brought me here before While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore |

It was forty or fifty years ago
A big shot played with time Mister Walker held the door And both kept Cord and line Watched and checked on every single day Building his own special cars His very special way Ooh! The new soft shoe Ooh! The new soft shoe And then walking through a southern road I saw a shoeshine stand A man was talking to a crowd Holding slippers in his hands Don't you know the same thing happens Each and every day? Did you ever hear a song That's hard to even play? Ooh! The new soft shoe Ooh! The new soft shoe Guitar solo Fiddle solo Then a color TV broadcast Snuck from New Orleans Showed me one more man who spoke and wore bright blue and green When you saw him talk his way Was when he showed his claws And spoke to people every day Just to get applause Ooh! The new soft shoe Ooh! The new soft shoe ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By GRAM PARSONS <i>Lyrics © BUG MUSIC</i> |
