Ive been tryin for a long, long time. But no matter what I do. When I turn to leave my heart stays behind. Cause I cant get over you. . I keep movin on, runnin hard and fast.
Baby, I see you're trying to figure out. What this enigma they call love is all about. Oh no, I'm no expert on the subject. That's for sure. . But I'd love to study up.
When he says he'll call me, he always does. Brings me flowers just because. He's kind and honest, says he's crazy 'bout me. I tell myself this could be a dream come true.
(Jody Alan Sweet). . It's three in the morning on a Saturday night. The laundry and dishes just ain't worth the fight. Headlights are dancing across the living room wall.
I need something like morphine only better. I need something like a kiss that lasts forever. I need something like money that will not burn. I need something and I need more than I can earn.
You play your stereo loud. You've got your headphones on. I see you dancing around. To your favorite song. . It's 'Who Do You Love'. I wanna know his name.
Sends a little photograph. That she shot in the nude. She doesn't wear a conscience. She doesn't play by rules. . So turn me on, baby, every night. And in the daytime too.
Used to work the discos, I used to work the door. Until I was convicted of a crime I did not score. Someone stole some diamonds, they looked a lot like me.
There's faded paint down Walnut Street.. That's the cotton gin where the farmers meet.. There's the water tower I never had the guts to climb.. Sums up how some folks live and other folks die trying..
In my hometown. Population just a few thousand. All of those kids at the drive in. After Friday nights football game. Thats the same place. Mom and dad went on their first date.
by John Williamson. . Real country people in their prime,. Livin' in New South on Queensland time. He's a stockman, likes raisin' sheep,. Likes raisin' children, don't get much sleep.
Well, she's been there right beside me. Through the ups and downs and all the in betweens. No, I couldn't live without her. But I've never let her see that side of me.
Sometimes when I sleep. I can see you walkin' back to me. And sometimes I wake up. 'Cause I swear I felt your touch. . Then emotions overcome me. And the darkness is so cold.
Lord only knows, just how far I would go. To show you the way that I feel. This rumbling inside me, continually drives me. Like ten thousand chariot wheels.
Baby, I can tell there's somethin' that you're wantin' to say. And I'm so afraid of where this is goin'. I know life ain't easy when you're livin' with a man like me.
I still miss someone. At my door the leaves are falling. The cold wild wind will come. Sweethearts walk by together. And I still miss someone. . I go out on a party.
It's true that I used to be crazy. And harder to love than most men. And the blood that ran in these tired hands. Was harder and wilder back then. . And I don't feel as tall as I used to.
I got my first guitar when I was just a boy. I was playin' the blues instead of playin' with toys. Listenin' to the Opera and dreamin' of the neon lights.
Well, I was just a kid, maybe two or three. Had a bad nightmare, scared the life out of me. Mama came in to calm my fears. When nothing she could do would stop those tears.
Every guy in my country road home town. Lost their mind when this one girl came around. Oh, I was seventeen. The first time that she looked my way. Hot as the pavement in July.
