I left you this morning couldn't take it anymore. You laughed and you dared me till walk out the door. You said that I'd come back you knew what I'd do.
Tonight in a bar alone I'm sitting. Apart from the laughter and the cheers. While scenes from the past rise before me. Just watchin' the bubbles in my beer.
Got a pollywog in your water. Tadpole in the moonshine vat. An' granddaddy-long-leg climbing on the screen. You better watch, you're gonna squash him flat.
Billy the kid I understand you. It really ain't your fault that the west is so wild. Billy the kid cain't reprimand you. You must have been deprived when you was a child.
Beverly packs her lunch pail silently. In the light of the dawn's gray gloom. In her lonely room. . Beverly works all day at the factory. On her feet from five to nine.
Benjamin rode out of Montana. On a Palomino pony. He told me he was all alone. He lost his family in forty-nine. . Benjamin took me to San Diego. Guess we caused quite a commotion.
There's a comfort in the cross. On the hill above the town. Something steady for the meek. When it all comes crashing down. I've been known to talk to Jesus.
My Mama got married to someone I barely knew. They had me then had my sister too. I was too young to understand why he left. . But how it broke my Mama's heart, I'll never forget.
Girl, you're getting that look in your eyes. And it's starting to worry me. I ain't ready for no family ties. Nobody's gonna hurry me. . Just keep it friendly, girl.
Her lips and her dress, their both ruby red. She thinks that's how you hide the pain you feel inside. And she comes out every night to soak up the neon light.
If I drove a truck. And I were a waitress. And I ordered coffee. And I poured you some. Then you stop by one on your way. Some time later. And if we arm-wrestled.
I'm sending you a big bouquet of roses. One for every time you broke my heart. And as the door of love between us closes. Tears will fall like petals when we part.
I fell in love on a moonlit night in the blue moon light of old Mexicali. I kissed red lips neath the blossoms of white in the blue moon light and I was so happy.
There's a blizzard comin' on how I'm wishin' I was home. For my pony's lame and he can't hardly stand. Listen to that northern sigh if we don't get home we'll die.
Come and look out through the window. That big old moon is shinin' -down.. Tell me now don't it remind you. On a blanket on the ground.. Remember back when love first found us.
Way down in Virginia. Amongst the tall grown sugar canes. Lived a simple man and a dominiker hen. And a rose of a different name.. . Well, the first time I felt lightning.
I believe what you say. When you say you're going steady with nobody else but me. I believe what you say. When you say you don't kiss nobody else but me.
I'm breaking in a brand new pair of shoes. Don't look at me like you think I've got the blues. 'Cause I'm walking 'round and around and I'm seeing most of the town.
Portland main is just the same as sunny Tennessee. Portland main is just the same as sunny Tennessee. Any old place I hang my hat is, home sweet home to me.
Every word on my mind, Bonny is your goodbye. Black, black, black, black is the day. No sun is shining in my world. Bonny, since you went away. . Sad, sad, sad, sad is my heart.
