I ain't gonna work on the railroad. I ain't gonna work on the farm. Lay down the shack 'til the mail train comes back. And I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms.
Together again. My tears have stopped falling. The long lonely nights. Are now at an end. . The key to my heart. You hold in your hand. . [Chorus]. And nothing else matters.
[Chorus:]. Where does the good times go?. Where does the river flow?. Where does the north wind blow?. Where does the good times go?. . Lips that used to burn with love.
I can tell by the way you hold me darlin'. That it won't be long before it's crying time. Oh they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder. And that tears are only rain to make love grow.
[Chorus]. If you don't want to run around. If you will really settle down. I'll take a chance on loving you. If you will be my very own. If you'll be mine and mine alone.
I'll play second fiddle. To your new love while it lasts. Just like all the others. I've played for in the past. Why can't I be a leader. And play your leading part?.
Over and over. I've said that we are through. Over and over. I've said I'm leaving you. But when you say I love you my heart goes in a spin. And over and over I take you back again.
They say that too much water has run under the bridge. That we never can live down the past. That once your love has ended it never can return. That's not so for we both know that our love will last.
Getting used to losing you is not an easy thing to do. For anyone can see I'm missing you. I still hurt the same old way and it grows worse day by day.
Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine. I don't care if the bells don't chime. Just as long as you love me. And I don't care if the tops don't spin.
Only you can make this world seem right. Only you can make the darkness bright. Only you and you alone. Can thrill me like you do. And fill my heart with love for only you.
Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine. I don't care if the bells don't chime. Just as long as you love me. And I don't care if the tops don't spin.
Ain't gonna work on the railroad. Ain't gonna work on the farm,. Gonna lay 'round the track. Till the mail train comes back. Then I'll roll in my sweet baby's arms..
Oh it's crying time again you're gonna leave me. I can see that faraway look in your eyes. I can tell by the way you hold me darling that it won't be long before it's crying time.
Oh, it's crying time again, you're gonna leave me. I can see that far away look in your eye. I can tell by the way you hold me, darling. That it won't be long before it's crying time.
Well, I don't care if the sun don't shine. I don't care if the bells don't chime. Just as long as you love me. And I don't care if the tops don't spin.
Oh, oh, I got my baby...to stop.. . My baby, my baby, my baby, my baby, my baby, my baby, my baby, my baby, my baby. . My Shorty look good, ... stop by and you knew she'll never leave my side.
Alone I travel though the wasteland in my heart. As the grievance tears me apart. Thinking of you and the things you meant to me. My heart is bleeding, I can't go on.
You've got me under your spell again. Saying those things again. Making me believe that you're just mine. You've got dreaming those dreams again. Thinking those things again.
You gave me love that I thought was true love. Something to put my arms around. You let me love to the peek of true love. And then you let me down. . You let me build a beautiful dream the first dream.
