Willie Nelson [기타,보컬,프로듀서]

Twilight falls,
Evening shadows find,
There 'neath the stars a maiden so fair divine.

The moon on high seemed to see her there,
In her eyes was a light shining ever so bright,
As she whisper'd a silent pray'r.

Ev'ry word revealed an empty, broken heart;
Broken by fate that holds them so far apart.

Lonely there she kneels, and tells the stars above,
In her arms he belongs, then her pray'r is a song,
Her unending song of love.

In the twilight glow I see you
이글거리는 황혼녘에서 난 그대를 바라봅니다
Blue eyes crying in the rain
빗속에서 우는 그대의 슬픈 눈동자
As we kissed goodbye and parted
우리가 작별의 키스를 하고 떠날 때
I knew we'd never meet again
난 우리가 결코 다시는 못 만날거라는 걸 알았지요
Love is like a dying ember
사랑은 죽어가는 장작불 같아요
Only memories remain
단지 추억만 남아 있을 뿐
Through the ages I'll remember
비록 시간이 지난다해도 난 기억할 겁니다
Blue eyes crying in the rain
빗속에서 울던 그대의 슬픈 눈동자를

Now my hair has turned to silver
이제 나의 머리는 은빛으로 변했고
All my life I've loved in vain
나의 모든 삶에서 난 헛되이 사랑을 했나봐요
I can see her star in heaven
난 천국에 있는 그녀의 별을 볼 수 있어요

Blue eyes crying in the rain
빗속에서 울던 그대의 슬픈 눈동자를
Someday when we meet up yonder
언젠가는 우리가 천국에서 만나겠지요
We'll stroll hand in hand again
우린 다시 손을 잡고 산책을 할 수 있을거예요
In a land that knows no parting
이별이 없는 그 영원한 세계에서
Blue eyes crying in the rain
빗속에서 울던 그대의 슬픈 눈동자

Well, he rode into Blue Rock, dusty an' tired,
An' got him a room for the night.
He lay there in silence with too much on his mind.
Still hopin' that he was not right.

But he found them that evenin' at a tavern in town,
In a quiet little out of the way place.
An' they smiled at each other when he walked through the door.
An' they died with their smiles on their faces.

They died with their smile on their face.

Red Headed Stranger.

Don't boss him, don't cross him.
He's wild in his sorrow:
He's ridin' an' hidin his pain.
Don't fight him, don't spite him;
Just wait till tomorrow,
Maybe he'll ride on again.

Met the girl that I love,
In a town way down in Texas.
'Neath the stars up above,
She was the sweetest girl I ever did see.
So I held her in my arms and,
Told her of her many charms,
An'; I kissed her while the fiddles played,
The Bonaparte's Retreat.

All the world was bright as I held her on that night,
And I heard her say: "Don't you ever go away."

So I held her in my arms and,
Told her of her many charms,
An' I kissed her while the guitars played,
The Bonaparte's Retreat.

Can I sleep in your arms, tonight, lady?
It's so cold lyin' here all alone.
An' I have no hold to hold on you.
An', I assure you, I'll do you no wrong.

Don't know why, but the one I love left me.
Left me lonely an' cold an' so weak.
And I need someone's arms to hold me.
Till I'm strong enough to get back on my feet.

Can I sleep in your arms, tonight, lady?
It's so cold lyin' here all alone.
An' I have no hold to hold on you.
An', I assure you, I'll do you no wrong.

The bright lights of Denver are shinin' like diamonds.
Like ten thousand jewels in the sky.
An' it's nobody's business where you're goin' or where you come from.
An' you're judged by the look in your eye.
She saw him, that evenin' in a tavern in town.
In a quiet little out of the way place.
An' they smiled at each other as he walked through the door.
An' they danced with their smiles on their faces.
An' they danced with a smile on their face

At a time when the world seems to be spinnin' hopelessly out of control,
There's deceivers an' believers an' old in-betweeners,
That seem to have no place to go.
Well, it's the same old song, it's right an' it's wrong,
An' livin' is just somethin' that I do.
An' with no place to hide, I looked in your eyes,
An' I found myself in you.

I looked to the stars, tried all of the bars.
An' I've nearly gone up in smoke.
Now my hand's on the wheel, I've something that's real,
An' I feel like I'm goin' home.

An' in the shade of an oak down by the river,
Sit an old man an' a boy,
Settin' sail, spinnin' tales an' fishin' for whales,
With a lady they both enjoy.
Well, it's the same damn tune, it's the man in the moon.
It's the way that I feel about you.
An' with no place to hide, I looked in your eyes,
An' I found myself in you.

An' I looked to the stars, tried all of the bars.
An' I've nearly gone up in smoke.
Now my hand's on the wheel, I've something that's real,
An' I feel like I'm goin' home.

Instrumental break.

Today, I passed you on the street,
And my heart fell at your feet.
An' I can't help it if I'm still in love with you.
Somebody else stood by your side,
And he looked so satisfied.
An' I can't help it if I'm still in love with you.
A picture from the past came slowly stealing,
As I brushed your arm and walked so close to you.
An', suddenly, I got that old time feeling:
An' I can't help it if I'm still in love with you.

Instrumental break.

It's hard to know another's lips will kiss you,
And hold you just the way I used to do.
Heaven only knows how much I miss you:
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you.

An' I can't help it if I'm still in love with you

Well, last night I came home an' I knocked on my door,
An' I called to my love as I oft had before.
An' I knocked an' I knocked: no answer thee came.
No kisses to greet me or voice call my name.

An' I couldn't believe it was true, oh Lord.
Couldn't believe it was true.
An' my eyes filled with tears an' I must've aged in years,
An' I couldn't believe it was true.

Instrumental break.

Well, the shock was so great, I am quiverin' yet.
An' I'll try to forgive but I cannot forget.
My heart breakin' loss is another man's gain.
Her happiness, always, I hope will remain.

An' I couldn't believe it was true, oh Lord.
Couldn't believe it was true.
An' my eyes filled with tears an' I must've aged in years,
An' I couldn't believe it was true.

The red-headed stranger from Blue Rock, Montana
Rode into town one day
And under his knees was a ragin' black stallion
And walkin' behind was a bay
The red-headed stranger had eyes like the thunder
And his lips, they were sad and tight
His little lost love lay asleep on the hillside
And his heart was heavy as night

Don't cross him, don't boss him
He's wild in his sorrow
He's ridin' an' hidin his pain
Don't fight him, don't spite him
Just wait till tomorrow
Maybe he'll ride on again

A yellow-haired lady leaned out of her window
An' watched as he passed her way
She drew back in fear at the sight of the stallion
But cast greedy eyes on the bay
But how could she know that this dancin' bay pony
Meant more to him than life
For this was the horse that his little lost darlin'
Had ridden when she was his wife

Don't cross him, don't boss him
He's wild in his sorrow
He's ridin' an' hidin his pain
Don't fight him, don't spite him
Just wait till tomorrow
Maybe he'll ride on again

The yellow-haired lady came down to the tavern
An' looked up the stranger there
He bought her a drink, an' he gave her some money
He just didn't seem to care
She followed him out as he saddled his stallion
An' laughed as she grabbed at the bay
He shot her so quick, they had no time to warn her
She never heard anyone say

Don't cross him, don't boss him
He's wild in his sorrow
He's ridin' an' hidin his pain
Don't fight him, don't spite him
Just wait till tomorrow
Maybe he'll ride on again

The yellow-haired lady was buried at sunset
The stranger went free, of course
For you can't hang a man for killin' a woman
Who's tryin' to steal your horse
This is the tale of the red headed stranger
And if he should pass your way
Stay out of the path of the ragin' black stallion
And don't lay a hand on the bay

Don't cross him, don't boss him
He's wild in his sorrow
He's ridin' an' hidin his pain
Don't fight him, don't spite him
Just wait till tomorrow
Maybe he'll ride on again

You told me once you were mine, alone, forever,
An' I was yours till the end of eternity.
But all those vows are broken now an' I will never,
Be the same except in memory.

Remember me when the candle lights are gleamin'.
Remember me at the close of a long, long day.
An' it would be so sweet when all alone, I'm dreamin',
Just to know you still remember me.

Instrumental break.

A brighter face may take my place when we're apart, dear:
Another love, with a heart more bold and free.
But in the end, fairweather friends may break your heart, dear.
An' if they do, sweetheart, remember me.

Remember me when the candle lights are gleamin'.
Remember me at the close of a long, long day.
An' it would be so sweet when all alone, I'm dreamin',
Just to know you still remember me.

Just to know you still remember me.

It was a time of the preacher
When the story began
Of the choice of a lady
And the love of a man
How he loved her so dearly
He went out of his mind
When she left him for someone
That she'd left behind
And he cried like a baby
And he screamed like a panther
In the middle of the night
And he saddled his pony
And he went for a ride
It was a time of the preacher
In the year of O-one
Now the preachin' is over
And the lesson's begun

You've got to accentuate the positive eliminate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative don't mess with Mister In-Between

You've got to spread joy up to the maximum bring gloom down to the minimum
Have faith or pandemonium's liable to walk upon the scene
To illustrate my last remark Jonah in the whale Noah in the ark
What did they do just when everything looked so dark
You've got to accentuate the positive eliminate the negative
And latch on to the affirmative don't mess with Mister In-Between
( guitar )
To illustrate my last remark...
I said you've got to accentuate...
Don't mess with Mister In-Between

All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see
That I'm no good without you
Take my arms
I want to loose them
Take my lips
I'll never use them

Your goodbye
Left me with eyes that cry
And I know that I
Am no good without you
You took the part
That once was my heart
So why not take all of me

(Repeat both verses)

Why not take all of me

All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see
That I'm no good without you
Take my arms
I want to loose them
Take my lips
I'll never use them

Your goodbye
Left me with eyes that cry
And I know that I
Am no good without you
You took the part
That once was my heart
So why not take all of me

(Repeat both verses)

Why not take all of me

Angel eyes angel eyes
The ways of the world are feeble don't give up on simple people
Angle eyes stun those nights
The blues you can live wthout it's not what you song's about
Angel eyes angel eyes
Tell me what would we're doin' without the light from angel eyes

You can move the hearts of men
Just with a phrase you're turning since hearts ever have been yearning


Bear with us bear so alone
Thin lines you've been living on are so close to the danger zone
Angel eyes angel eyes
Tell me what would we're doin' without the light from angel eyes

No won't you come along with me
Down the Mississippi
We'll take trip to the land of dreams
Floatin' down the river down to New Orleans

And the band'll be there to meet us
Oh, friends to greet us
That's where the light and the dark folks meet
A heaven on earth - they call it Basin Street

Basin street is the street
Where the elite always meet
Out in New Orleans, the land of dreams
You'll never know how nice it seems
Or just how much it really means
And I'd rather be, yes-sir-ee
New Orleans the land of dreams
Where I can lose my Basin Street blues

Now ain't you glad you came with me
We went down the Mississippi
We took a trip
To the land of dreams
We floated down the river
Down to New Orleans

Basin street - that's the street
Where the elite always meet
Down in New Orleans, the land of dreams
And you'll never know how nice it seems
Or just how much it really means
I'd rather be, yes-sir-ee
New Orleans the land of dreams
Where I can lose my Basin Street blues

Blue skies smilin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies do I see
Bluebirds singin' a song
Nothin' but bluebirds all day long

Never saw the sun shinin' so bright
Never saw things goin' so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly

Blue days, all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on
(Blue skies smilin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies do I see)

Never saw the sun shinin' so bright
Never saw things goin' so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly

Blue days, all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on
Nothin' but blue skies from now on

Blue skies smilin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies do I see
Bluebirds singin' a song
Nothin' but bluebirds all day long

Never saw the sun shinin' so bright
Never saw things goin' so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly

Blue days, all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on
(Blue skies smilin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies do I see)

Never saw the sun shinin' so bright
Never saw things goin' so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly

Blue days, all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on
Nothin' but blue skies from now on

If your sweetheart sends a letter of goodbye
It's no secret you feel better if you cry
When waking from a bad dream don't you sometimes think it's real
But it's only false emotions that you feel
If your heartaches seem to hang around too long
And your blues keep gettin' bluer with each song
Remember sunshine can be found behind the cloudy sky
So let your head down and go on and cry
If your heartaches...

Missed the Saturday dance
Heard they crowded the floor
Couldn't bear it without you
Don't get around much anymore

Though I'd visit the club
Got as far as the door
They'd have asked me about you
Don't get around much anymore

Darling, I guess my mind's more at ease
But nevertheless why stir up memories?

Been invited on dates
Might have gone but what for?
Awf'lly diff'rent without you
Don't get around much anymore

Still in peaceful dreams I see,
The road leads back to you.

I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
And make believe it came from you

I'm gonna write words oh so sweet
They're gonna knock me off my feet
A lotta kisses on the bottom
I'll be glad I got 'em

I'm gonna smile and say
I hope you're feeling better
I'll close with love the way you do
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
And I'm gonna make believe it came from you

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, men have named you
You're so like the lady with the mystic smile
Is it only 'cause you're lonely they have blamed you?
For that Mona Lisa strangeness in your smile?

Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there
Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?

Pennies in a stream
fallen leaves of sycamore
moonlight in Vermont

Icy fingers waves
ski trails on a mountain side
snow light in Vermont

Telegraph cables
they swing down the highway
and travel each bend in the road
People who meet in this romantic setting
are so hypnotized by the lovely

evening summer breeze
warbling of a meadow lark
moonlight in Vermont

Ole buttermilk sky
I'm keeping my eye peeled on you
What's the good word tonight
Are you gonna be mellow tonight?

Ole buttermilk sky
Can't you see my little donkey and me?
We're as happy as a Christmas tree
Headed for the one I love

I'm gonna pop her the question, that question
Do you, darling do you, do?
It'll be easy, so easy
If I can only bank on you

Ole buttermilk sky
I'm tellin' you why, now you know
Keep it in mind tonight
keep brushin' those clouds from sight

Ole buttermilk sky
Don'cha fail me when I'm needin' you most
Hang a moon above her hitchin' post
And hitch me to the one I love

You can, if you try, don't tell me no lie
Will you be mellow and bright tonight
Buttermilk sky?

Grab your coat and get your hat
Leave your worry on the doorstep
Just direct your feet
To the sunny side of the street

Can't you hear a pitter pat
And that happy tune is your step?
Life can be so sweet
On the sunny side of the street

I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
But I'm not afraid
This Rover crossed over

If I never have a cent
I'll be rich as Rockefeller
Gold dust at my feet
On the sunny side of the street

I used to walk in the shade
With those blues on parade
But I'm not afraid
This Rover crossed over

If I never have a cent
I'll be rich as Rockefeller
Gold dust at my feet

Grab your coat and get your hat
Leave your worry on the doorstep
Just direct your feet

If I never have a cent
I'll be rich as Rockefeller
Gold dust at my feet

Oh it's a long long while from May to December
But the days grow short when you reach September
When the autumn weather turns leaves to flame
One hasn't got time for the waiting game
Oh the days dwindle down to a precious few
September November and these few precious days I'll spend with you
These precious days I'll spend with you

Oh the days dwindle down...
These precious days I'll spend with you

There is somebody I'm longing to see
I hope that he turns out to be
Someone who'll watch over me
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
To one who'll watch over me
Although she may not be
The girl some men think of
As pretty to my heart
She carries the key
Won't you tell her please
To put on some speed follow my lead
Oh how I need someone to watch over me

Although she may not be
The girl some men think of
As pretty to my heart
She carries the key
Won't you tell her please
To put on some speed follow my lead
Oh how I need someone to watch over me

There is somebody I'm longing to see
I hope that he turns out to be
Someone who'll watch over me
I'm a little lamb who's lost in the wood
I know I could always be good
To one who'll watch over me
Although she may not be
The girl some men think of
As pretty to my heart
She carries the key
Won't you tell her please
To put on some speed follow my lead
Oh how I need someone to watch over me

Although she may not be
The girl some men think of
As pretty to my heart
She carries the key
Won't you tell her please
To put on some speed follow my lead
Oh how I need someone to watch over me

Sometimes I wounder
Why I spend the lonely night
Dreaming of a song
The melody haunts my memory
And I am once again you
When our love is new
And each kiss an inspiration
But that was long ago
And now my consolation
Is in star dust of sun
Beside the garden wall
When stars are bright
You are in arms
The nightingale tells his fairy tales
Of paradise where roses growThough I dream them in my heart
They always will remain
My stardust memory
The memory of loves refrain
And though I dream in vain
In my heart it will always will remain
My stardust memory
The memory of loves refrain

Sometimes I wounder
Why I spend the lonely night
Dreaming of a song
The melody haunts my memory
And I am once again you
When our love is new
And each kiss an inspiration

But that was long ago
And now my consolation
Is in star dust of sun
Beside the garden wall
When stars are bright
You are in arms
The nightingale tells his fairy tales
Of paradise where roses grow

*Though I dream them in my heart
They always will remain
My stardust memory
The memory of loves refrain

And though I dream in vain
In my heart it will always will remain
My stardust memory
The memory of loves refrain

(Repeat *)

Don't know why there's no sun up in the sky stormy weather
Since my gal and I ain't together keeps rainin' all the time
Life is bare gloom and misery everywhere stormy weather

Just can't get my poor self together I'm weary all the time all the time
When she went away the blues walked in and met me
If she stays away old rocking chair will get me

All I do is pray the Lord above will let me walk in the sun once more
Can't go on everything I had is gone stormy weather
Since my gal and I ain't together keeps rainin' all the time

The evening breeze caressed the trees tenderly
The trembling trees embraced the breeze tenderly
Then you and I came wanderin' by
And lost in a sigh were we

The shore was kissed by sea and mist tenderly
I can't forget how two hearts met breathlessly
Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my lips, you took my love so tenderly

The shore was kissed by sea and mist tenderly
I can't forget how two hearts met breathlessly
Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my lips, you took my love so tenderly

Up in the morning out on the job
Work like a devil for my pay
And the lucky old sun ain't got nothing to do
But roll around heaven all day

Fuss with my woman, toil for my kids
Sweat till I'm wrinkled and gray
But the lucky old sun ain't got nothing to do
But roll around heaven all day

Dear Lord above can't you see I'm cryin'
Tears are in my eyes
Send down the cloud with silver line
Take me to paradise

Show me that river, lead me across
Take all my troubles away
Like the lucky old sun, ain't got nothing to do but
But roll around heaven all day
But roll around heaven all day

Oh, my love, my darlin'
I?ve hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me
Lonely rivers flow
To the seas, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers sigh
Wait for me, wait for me
I?ll be coming home, wait for me
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me
God speed your love to me(As performed by Marty Robbins)
Oh, my love, my darlin'
I?ve hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love back to me
Lonely rivers flow
To the arms of the sea
To the waiting arms of the sea
Lonely rivers cry
Wait for me, wait for me
I?ll be coming home, wait for me
My love, wait for me, wait for me, wait for me

Oh, my love, my darlin'
I?ve hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I need your love

Lonely rivers flow
To the seas, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers sigh
Wait for me, wait for me
I?ll be coming home, wait for me

Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me

God speed your love to me

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
and I think to myself, what a wonderful world

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
the bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
and I think to myself, what a wonderful world

the colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, saying, "how do you do?"
they're really saying, "I love you"

I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
they'll learn much more, than I'll ever know
and I think to myself, what a wonderful world

yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world

You'll never know just how much I love you
You'll never know just how much I care
And if I tried I still couldn't hide my love for you
You ought to know for heaven I told you so
A million or more times
You went away and my heart went with you
I speak your name in my every prayer
If there is some other way to prove that I love you
I swear I don't know how
You'll never know if you don't know now

You went away and my heart went with you
I speak your name in my every prayer
If there is some other way to prove that I love you
I swear I don't know how
You'll never know if you don't know now

Well I've been a lot of places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs and I've made some bad rhyme
I've acted out my love in stages with ten thousand people watchin'
Now we're alone and I am singin' my song for you
And I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly but darling can't you see
No one more important to me darling can't you please see through me
Cause now we're alone and I am singing my song for you
Well you taught me precious secrets of a truth with holding nothin'
You came out in front but I was hiding
Now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding
And I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing my song for you
And we were alone and I was singing my song for you

Tonight in the bar alone I'm sitting
Apart from the laughter and the cheer
Scenes from the past rise before me
Watchin' the bubbles in my beer

(Chorus:)
Visions of someone who loved me
Brings a lone silent tear to my eye
And I know that my life's been a failure
Watchin' the bubbles in my beer

I'm seeing the road that I travel
A road filled with heartaches and tears
And I'm seeing the past that I've wasted
Watchin' the bubbles in my beer

(Repeat chorus)



(As Performed by Ray Price on
"San Antonio Rose - A Tribute To The Great Bob Wills)

Tonight in a bar room I'm sitting
Apart from the laughter and the cheer
The scenes of my life pass before me
While watchin' the bubbles in my beer

CHORUS:
A vision of someone who loved me
Brings a lone, silent tear to my eye
I know that my life's been a failure
Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer

I'm seein' the road that I travel
A road paved with heartaches and tears
I'm seein' the past that I've wasted
While watchin' the bubbles in my beer

CHORUS:
I think of the heart that I've broken
And the golden chances that have passed me by
The dreams I once made now are over
As empty as the bubbles in my beer

We were headed home in Austin
Caught pneumonia on the road
Taking it home to Connie and the kids
A wheel ran off and jumped a railroad
Then ran through a grocery store

If you want to buy a bus I'm taking bids
And the devil shivered in his sleeping bag
He said traveling on the road is such a drag
If we can make it home by Friday we can brag
And the devil shivered in his sleeping bag

Well I just got back from New York City
Kris and Rita done it all
Raw perfection there for all the world to see
Lord I heard an angel singing
In the Philharmonic Hall
Rita Coolidge Rita Coolidge cleft for me
And the devil shivered...
And the devil shivered in his sleeping bag

The lights go out each evening at eleven
And up and down our block there's not a sound
I close my eyes and search for peaceful slumber
And just then the local memory comes around
Piles of blues against the door to make sure sleep will come no more
He's the hardest working memory in this town
Turns out happiness again and then lets loneliness back in
And each night the local memory comes around

Each day I say tonight I may escape him
I pretend I'm happy and never even a frown
But at night I close my eyes and pray sleep finds me
But again the local memory comes around
Rids the house of all good news then sets out my crying shoes
What a faithful memory never lets me down
We're both up till light of day chasing happiness away
And each night the local memory comes around
And each night the local memory comes around

I'm writing a song all about you
A true song as real as my tears
But you've no need to fear it
'Cause no one will hear it
'Cause sad songs and waltzes
Aren't selling this year
I'll tell all about how you cheated
I'd like to the whole world to hear
I'd like to get even with you
'Cause you're leavin'
And songs and waltzes
Aren't selling this year
It's a good thing that I'm not a star
You don't know how lucky you are
Though my record may say it
No one will play it
'Cause sad songs and waltzes
Aren't selling this year

Well it's a good thing that I'm not a star
You don't know how lucky you are
Though my record may say it
No one will play it
'Cause sad songs and waltzes
Aren't selling this year

Pay no mind to her
She only wants to play
But she's not for you
She's not for you
And I'm the only one
Who would let her act this way
But she's not for you
She's not for you
So she told you she found
Heaven in your eyes
Well I think it only fair
To warn you that
Sometimes she lies
But it's your heart
I can't tell you
What to do
But she's not for you
She's not for you

She just looks for
Greener pastures now and then
And when she grows tired
She knows Old Faithful
Will just take her back again
So just leave her here
I'm used to feeling blue
She's not for you
She's not for you
She's not for you
She's not for you

Shotgun Willie sits around in his underwear
Bitin' a bullet, pullin' out all of his hair
Shotgun Willie has got all of his family there

You can't make a record if you ain't got nothin' to say
You can't make a record if you ain't got nothin' to say
You can't play music if you don't know nothin' to play

(Repeat 1st verse)

Well, John T. (Fours)? was workin' with the Klu Klux Klan
The six foot five John T was a hell of a man
Made a lot of money sellin' sheets on the family plan

(Repeat 1st verse)

Slow down slow down old world
There's no hurry cause
My life ain't mine anymore
I lived too fast
Now it's too late to worry
And I'm too blue to cry anymore
I once was a fool for the women
Now I'm just a fool nothing more
So slow down slow down old world
There's no hurry cause
My life ain't mine anymore

I once had a way with the women
Till one got away with my heart
So slow down slow down old world
There's no hurry cause
My life ain't mine anymore
'Cause my life ain't mine anymore

My oatmeal tastes just like confetti
the coffee's too strong so forget it
The toast is burning well let it
there's just so much to do since you've gone
Too much to do all alone
My tie's lost I can't find the sweater
there's the doorbell I hope that's your letter
My head aches I hope I feel better
there's just so much to do since you've gone
Too much to do all alone
So much to do since you've gone
too much to do all alone
And time time rolls on like a river
and oh there's just so much to do
And I just can't do without you

So much to do since you've gone
too much to do all alone
And time time rolls on like a river
and oh there's just so much to do
And I just can't do without you

Can't go home if you're goin' by the mill
Cause the bridge's washed out
At the bottom of the hill
Big Creek's up Little Creek's level
Plow my corn with a double shovel
Stay all night stay a little longer
Dance all night dance a little longer
Pull off your coat throw it in the corner
Don't see why you can't stay a little longer

Sittin' in the window singin' to my love
Slop bucket fell from the window up above
Mule and the grasshopper eatin' ice cream
Mule got sick so they laid him on the green
Stay all night stay a little longer
Dance all night dance a little longer
Pull off your coat throw it in the corner
Don't see why you can't stay a little longer

[ guitar ]

Well you ought to see my Blue Eyed Sally
She lives away down on Shinbone Alley
Number on the gate the number on the door
The next house over is the grocery store
Stay all night stay a little longer
Dance all night dance a little longer
Pull off your coat throw it in the corner
Don't see why you can't stay a little longer

[ guitar ]

Stay all night stay a little longer
Dance all night dance a little longer
Pull off your coat throw it in the corner
Don't see why you can't stay a little longer
Don't see why you can't stay a little longer

You look like the devil in the morning you've been out a working through the night
Holdin' hands and kissin' everybody I'm glad to say that you can't blow my mind

You look like the devil when you're cryin' I'm so glad that you feel so strong that way
You got a great big smile for everybody I'm so glad I've met you yesterday
[ steel ]
You look like the devil in the morning...
[ guitar ]
You look like the devil when you're cryin'...


I'm so glad I've met you yesterday

I grew up a-dreamin' of bein' a cowboy,
and Lovin' the cowboy ways.
Pursuin' the life of my high-ridin' heroes,
I burned up my childhood days.
I learned of all the rules of the modern-day drifter,
Don't you hold on to nothin' too long.
Just take what you need from the ladies, then leave them,
With the words of a sad country song.
My heroes have always been cowboys.
And they still are, it seems.
Sadly, in search of, but one step in back of,
Themselves and their slow-movin' dreams.

Cowboys are special with their own brand of misery,
From being alone too long.
You could die from the cold in the arms of a nightmare,
Knowin' well that your best days are gone.
Pickin' up hookers instead of my pen,
I let the words of my years fade away.
Old worn-out saddles, and 'old worn-out memories,
With no one and no place to stay.

My heroes have always been cowboys.
And they still are, it seems.
Sadly, in search of, but one step in back of,
Themselves and their slow-movin' dreams.

Sadly, in search of, but one step in back of,
Themselves and their slow-movin' dreams.

Night and you
And blue Hawaii
The night is heavenly
And you are heaven to me

Lovely you
And blue Hawaii
With all this loveliness
There should be love

Come with me
While the moon is on the sea,
The night is young
And so are we, so are we

Dreams come true
In blue Hawaii
And mine could all come true
This magic night of nights with you

Well hello there
My, it's been a long long time
How am I doin'
Oh well, I guess I'm doin' fine
It's been so long now and it seems that
It was only yesterday
Ain't it funny how time slips away

How's your new love
I hope that he's doin' fine
Heard you told him, yes baby
That you'd love him till the end of time
Well you know, that's the same thing
That you told me
Well, it seems like just the other day
Ain't it funny how time slips away

Gotta go now
Guess I'll see you hanging round
Don't know when though
Never know when I'll be back in town
But I remember what I told you
That in time you're gonna pay

Well ain't it surprisin' how time slips away
Yeah, ain't it surprisin' how time slips away

I guess I've come to live here in your eyes.
This must be the place called paradise.
You are so precious to me,
What a special time within our lives.
And I guess I've come to live here in your eyes.

A thousand times I see you
And a thousand times you take my breath away.
Fears and doubts consume me and I'm afraid someone will take it all away.
I hope we're here forever, but I guess it's time that we both realized.
That I guess I've come to live here in your eyes.

I guess I've come to live here in your eyes.
This must be the place called paradise.
You are so precious to me,
What a special time within our lives.
And I guess I've come to live here in your eyes.

A thousand times I see you
And a thousand times you take my breath away.
Fears and doubts consume me and I'm afraid someone will take it all away.
I hope we're here forever, but I guess it's time that we both realized.
That I guess I've come to live here in your eyes.

I'm not trying to forget you anymore
I got back into remembering all the love we shared before
And I'd been trying to forget someone who my heart still adores
So I'm not trying to forget you anymore

You were someone who brought happiness into my life
And it did not last forever but that's all right
We were always more than lovers and I'm still your friend
And if I had the chance I'd do it all again

So I'm not trying to forget you anymore
I got back into remembering all the love we had before
And the best days of my life are still when you walk through that door
So I'm not trying to forget you anymore

I'm waiting forever for you
For this is my destiny
This is what I am to do

But forever ain't no time at all
It's only the time
Between telephone calls

And the love that I hear
And your voice is so clear comin' through
Keeps me waiting forever
Waiting forever for you

I'm waiting forever for you
For this is my destiny
This is what I am to do

Waiting is no waste of time
I just play out the scenes
On a stage in my mind

I love makin' love to your memory
It's all that I do
While I'm waiting forever
Waiting forever for you

<i>Lyrics &copy; Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.</i>

She is gone
But she was here
and her memory is still heavy in the air
oh what a taste
of human love
now she's gone and it don't matter anymore.

Passing dreams
in the night
and it was more than just a woman and a man
it was love
without device
And my heart will never be the same again





She is gone
but she was here
and her memory is still heavy in the air
oh what a taste
of human love
now she's gone and it don't matter anymore

I've been too sick to pray, Lord
That's why we ain't talked in a while
It's been some of them days, Lord
I thought I was on my last mile

But I'm feelin' okay, Lord
And I'm glad that I called You today
Never needed You more
I woulda called You before
But I've been to sick to pray

Remember the family, Lord?
I know they will remember You+
And all of their prayers, Lord
They talk to You just like I do

Well, I reckon that's all, Lord
That's all I can think of to say
And thank You, my friend
We'll be talkin' again
If I'm not too sick to pray

We don't run, we don't compromise
We don't quit, we never do
We look for love, we find it in the eyes
The eyes of me and the eyes of you

You are the road, you are the only way
I'll follow you forever more
We'll look for love, we'll find it in the eyes
The eyes that see through all the doors

There is a train that races through the night
On rails of steel that reach the soul
Fueled by fire as soft as candle light
But it warms the heart of a love grown cold

And we don't run and we don't compromise
We don't quit, we never do
We look for love, we find it in the eyes
The eyes of me and the eyes of you

Words that feel, words that sympathize
Words that heal and understand
Say them now, let them materialize
Say the words throughout the land

We don't run, we don't compromise
We don't quit, we never do
We look for love, find it in the eyes
The eyes of me and the eyes of you

And we don't run and we don't compromise
We don't quit, we never do
We look for love, we find it in the eyes
The eyes of me and the eyes of you

Been feelin' kind of free
But I sure do feel lonesome
Baby's takin' a trip
But she ain't takin' me

I've been feelin' kinda free
But I'd rather feel your arms around me
'Cause you're takin' away
Ev'rything that I wanted

There's an old hollow tree
Where we carved our initials
And I said I love you
And you said you love me

It's a mem'ry today
It'll be a mem'ry tomorrow
I hope you'll be happy someday
(And) Your mem'ry won't die in my grave

(repeat last two verses

Maybe I didn't treat you Quite
as good as I should have
어쩌면 나 내가 할 수 있는 만큼
당신에게 잘 대해주지 않았는지도 몰라요
Maybe I didn't love you Quite
as often as I could have
어쩌면 나 최선을 다해서
당신을 사랑하지 않았는지도 몰라요
Little things I should have said and done
작은 부분까지 말해주고 해줬어야 했는데
I just never took the time
그러질 못했어요

You were always on my mind
내 맘속엔 언제나 당신이 있었는데
You are always on my mind
내 맘속엔 언제나 당신이 있었는데

Maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
어쩌면 당신이 정말 외롭고 외로웠을
때 당신을 안아주지도 않았을 거에요
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine
당신이 내 사랑이어서
너무 행복하다고 말한 적도 없네요
If I make you feel second best
당신이 뒷전이라는 그런 느낌이 들었다면
Girl, I'm sorry I was blind
그대, 정말 미안해요 내가 바보였어요

You were always on my mind
내 맘속엔 언제나 당신이 있었는데
You are always on my mind
내 맘속엔 언제나 당신이 있었는데

Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn't died
말해줘요.. 당신의 달콤한 사랑이
사라지지 않았다고 말해줘요
Give me, give me one more chance
내게 줘요.. 한번만 더 기회를 내게 주세요
To keep you satisfied, satisfied
당신을 만족시킬 수 있는 기회를 줘요

Little things I should have said and done
작은 부분까지 말하고 행동했어야 했는데
I just never took the time
그런 적이 없었어요

You were always on my mind
내 맘속엔 언제나 당신이 있었는데
You are always on my mind
내 맘속엔 언제나 당신이 있었는데

Blue skies smilin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies do I see
Bluebirds singin' a song
Nothin' but bluebirds all day long

Never saw the sun shinin' so bright
Never saw things goin' so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly

Blue days, all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on
(Blue skies smilin' at me
Nothin' but blue skies do I see)

Never saw the sun shinin' so bright
Never saw things goin' so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly

Blue days, all of them gone
Nothin' but blue skies from now on
Nothin' but blue skies from now on

When you're weary, and feeling small
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all
I'm on your side, when times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down

When you're down and out, and on the street
When evening falls so hard, I will comfort you
I'll take your part, when darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will lay me down

Sail on silver girl, sail on by
Your time has come to shine, all your dreams are on their way
See how they shine, if you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water, I will ease your mind

I will ease your mind

Georgia, Georgia, the whole day through.
An' just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind.

Georgia, Georgia, a song of you,
Comes as sweet and clear as moonlight through the pines.

Other arms reach out to me;
Other eyes smile tenderly.
Still in peaceful dreams I see,
The road leads back to you.

Georgia, Georgia, no peace I find.
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind.

Instrumental break.

Georgia, Georgia, no peace I find.
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind.
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind.

On my mind.
On my mind.

On my mind.
On my mind.

On my mind.
On my mind.

On my mind.


To Fade out.

I saw the harbor lights
They only told me we were parting
The same old harbor lights that once brought you to me
I watch'd the harbor lights
How could I help if tears were starting?
Goodbye to tender nights beside the silvery sea
I longed to hold you near and kiss you just once more
But you were on the ship and I was on the shore
Now I know lonely nights
For all the while my heart is whispering
Some other harbor lights
Will steal your love from me

I bless the day I found you
I want to stay around you
And so I beg you, let it be me
Don't take this heaven from one
If you must cling to someone
Now and forever, let it be me
Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love what would life be
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always let it be me
Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love what would life be
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always let it be me

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa, men have named you
You're so like the lady with the mystic smile
Is it only 'cause you're lonely they have blamed you?
For that Mona Lisa strangeness in your smile?

Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there and they die there
Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely lovely work of art?



Do you smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa?

Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa

Somewhere over the rainbow
way up high
There's a land that i heard of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
skies are blue
And the dreams that
you dare to dream
Really do come true
Someday i'll wish upon a star and
Wake up where the clouds are far
Behind meWhere troubles melt
like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then oh why can't i
If happy little bluebirds fly
beyond the rainbow
Why why can't i

He looked down into her brown eyes,
Said, " Say a prayer for me."
She threw her arms around him,
Whispered, "God will keep us free."
And they could hear the riders comin,
He said, "This is my last fight.
If they take me back to Texas,
They won't take me back alive."

**Chorus**

And there were seven Spanish Angels,
At the alter of the Sun.
They were prayin' for the lovers,
In the valley of the gun.
And when the battle stopped,
And the smoke cleared.
There was thunder from the throne.
And seven Spanish angels,
Took another angel home.

She reached down and picked the gun up,
That lay smokin in his hand.
Said, "Father please forgive me,
I can't make it without my man."
And she knew the gun was empty,
And she knew she couldn't win.
But her final prayer was answered,
When the rifles fired again.

**Chorus

The evening breeze caressed the trees tenderly
The trembling trees embraced the breeze tenderly
Then you and I came wanderin' by
And lost in a sigh were we

The shore was kissed by sea and mist tenderly
I can't forget how two hearts met breathlessly
Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my lips, you took my love so tenderly

The shore was kissed by sea and mist tenderly
I can't forget how two hearts met breathlessly
Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my lips, you took my love so tenderly

Up in the morning out on the job
Work like a devil for my pay
And the lucky old sun ain't got nothing to do
But roll around heaven all day

Fuss with my woman, toil for my kids
Sweat till I'm wrinkled and gray
But the lucky old sun ain't got nothing to do
But roll around heaven all day

Dear Lord above can't you see I'm cryin'
Tears are in my eyes
Send down the cloud with silver line
Take me to paradise

Show me that river, lead me across
Take all my troubles away
Like the lucky old sun, ain't got nothing to do but
But roll around heaven all day
But roll around heaven all day

To all the girls I've loved before
Who travelled in and out my door
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before
To all the girls I once caressed
And may I say I've held the best
For helping me to grow
I owe a lot I know
To all the girls I've loved before
The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away
To all the girls who shared my life
Who now are someone else's wives
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the girls I've loved before
To all the girls who cared for me
Who filled my nights with ecstasy
They live within my heart
I'll always be a part
Of all the girls I've loved before
The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I try to stay
The winds of change continue blowing
And they just carry me away
To all the girls we've loved before
Who travelled in and out our doors
We're glad they came along
We dedicate this song
To all the girls we've loved before
To all the girls we've loved before
Who travelled in and out our doors
We're glad they came along
We dedicate this song
To all the girls we've loved before

A rose must remain with the sun and the rain
Or it's lovely promise won't come true
To each his own
To each his own
And my own is you
What good is a song if
The words just don't belong
And a dream must be a dream for two
No good alone
To each his own
And my own is you
If a flame is to grow
There must be a glow
To open each door there's a key
I need you I know
I can't let you go
Your touch means too much to me
Two lips must insit and two more to be kissed
Or they'll never know what love can do
To each his own
I've found my own one and only you

If a flame is to grow
There must be a glow
To open each door there's a key
I need you I know
I can't let you go
Your touch means too much to me
Two lips must insit and two more to be kissed
Or they'll never know what love can do
To each his own
I've found my own one and only you

Oh, my love, my darlin'
I?ve hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me
Lonely rivers flow
To the seas, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers sigh
Wait for me, wait for me
I?ll be coming home, wait for me
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love to me
God speed your love to me(As performed by Marty Robbins)
Oh, my love, my darlin'
I?ve hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I need your love
God speed your love back to me
Lonely rivers flow
To the arms of the sea
To the waiting arms of the sea
Lonely rivers cry
Wait for me, wait for me
I?ll be coming home, wait for me
My love, wait for me, wait for me, wait for me

Without a song the day would never end
Without a song the road would never bend
When things go wrong a man ain't got a friend
Without a song
That field of corn would never see a plow
That field of corn would be deserted now
A man is born but he's no good no how
Without a song
I got my trouble and woe but, sure as I know, the Jordan will roll
And I'll get along as long as a song, strong in my soul
I'll never know what makes the rain to fall
I'll never know what makes that grass so tall
I only know there ain't no love at all
Without a song
I've-a got my trouble and woe and, sure as I know, the Jordan will roll
And I'll get along as long as a song, strong in my soul
I'll-a never know what makes that rain to fall
I'll never know what makes the grass so tall
I only know there ain't no love at all
Without a song
