I should've said no no no I should've taken it slow
G7 C
You had me falling too fast for his pretty boy charms
F
But girls can close their eyes pretend to fantasize
G7 C
That it's alright to lay there in his arms

Growin' up on the bayou
Can drive you outta your mind
Marie was just a youngin'
When she left the black water behind

It all happened one night
In the back of Jimmy's car
Jimmy said, Marie you are so pretty

So I said, "Listen, I got..." And I said, uh, uh, somethin' about, uh
Goin' to somebody's funeral or something, she, I said, "Man," I said
I said, "Bring my flowers now, while I'm living"
Bring my flowers now, while I'm livin'
I won't need your love when I'm gone
Don't spend time, tears, or money on my old breathless body
If your heart is in them flowers, bring 'em on
All the miles cast a long shadow

I am dreaming, tonight, of an old southern town
And the best friend that I ever had
For I've grown so weary of roaming around
And I'm going home to my dad

Your hair has turned to silver and I know you're failing too
Daddy, dear, oh, daddy, I'm coming back to you
You made my childhood happy but still I longed to roam

Delta Dawn, what's that flower you have on
Could it be a faded rose from days gone by
And did I hear you say he was a-meetin' you here today
To take you to his mansion in the sky-eye

She's forty-one and her daddy still calls 'er "baby"
All the folks 'round Brownsville say she's crazy
'Cause she walks downtown with her suitcase in her hand

Baby, your heart is in serious danger,
Don't go out with her.
She'll lead you on, treat you like a stranger,
Don't go out with her.
You need someone like me,
Who'll love you endlessly.

Baby, your headed for a brand new heartache,

Half the moon is shining tonight
And half the moon is pitch black
And I got half the chance that you might
Turn around and come back

Half my love has seen the light
And half my love is still blind
It keeps on thinking tomorrow

You said goodbye on Tuesday
I figured I would see you by the weekend
I either didn't hear you right
Or maybe this ol' heart didn't listen

So I'm writing you this letter I may never send
Wonderin' if you're wonderin' how I've been

Mama never had a flower garden cause cotton grew right up to our front door
Daddy never went on a vacation he died a tired old man at forty-four
Our neighbors in the big house called us redneck
Cause we lived in a poor sharecropper shack
The Jackson's down the road were poor like we were
But our skin was white and their was black
But I believe the south is gonna rise again
But not the way we thought it would back then

(Richard Carpenter/Kent Robbin)

You never gave me back the love I gave to you.
You just gave me half your heart and that half was untrue.
So I'll leave you with a promise, from a heart that's heard enough:
Someday you'll find out that you can't escape my love.

I'll come back as another woman,

If your heart ain't busy tonight
Maybe it would like to get with mine
If your heart ain't busy tonight
Well I could keep it occupied for a long long time
If your lips ain't got something pressing to do
If your arms aren't held up, well their invited too
If your heart ain't busy tonight
Maybe it would like to get with mine

(Pat Terry/Roger Murrah)

Well I was up all night well wonderin' what to do
Thinkin' that I oughta just forget about you
But it's a little too late
Well it's a little too late
When you walked in I shoulda walked out
Well it's a little too late to do the right thing now

Somehow I knew I'd see you tonight
Here in our old rendezvous
I'm at the mercy of old memories
You've got your somebody new

You may wonder why I keep coming by
With this heart so broken in two
Any fool can see with one look at me

You came riding in on the sunrise
On a hot west Texas day
With a fancy man in a painted wagon
With some fancy things to say
Looks like you folks need some water
Well water is my game
And for the small price of $100.00
I bet you I could make it rain

I’m gonna tell you how it’s gonna be:
you’re gonna give your love to me.
I’m gonna love you night and day.
Well, love is love and not fade away.
Well, love is love and not fade away.

My love’s bigger than a Cadillac.
I try to show it, then you’re driving me back.

If you've got a road map of Texas
You can see that it's a wide open state
From Amarillo down to Boulder
You can bet that it's a honky-tonky place

They might like to rock 'n roll in Dallas
Or disco down on Galveston Bay
But when God made them West Texas cowboys

Out of the shoot he sits tall as the timber
One hand on the horse and one hand on the sky
Eight seconds later he lands in the money
And winning's a feeling that money can't buy
The kids love a hero and big silver buckles
The girls love the dream of a rodeo man
He loves the backroads and fields without fences
And I guess he loves me because I understand

I never thought the time would come,
When I would want to have someone
To take your place, and love me while your gone.
I promised I would stay with you,
And that's just what I want to do,
But a woman can't spend this much time alone.

There'll always be just one more hill,

Right about now you'd be saying sweet nothings,
and I'd be hanging on your every word.
My lips would be wet with your kisses,
And we'd be lost in our own little world.

Right about now I'd be feeling your heart beat and your fingers touching my skin.
Oh, what I wouldn't give to be back in your arms somehow.
Oh, Right about now.

When I was a child down in South Caroline
Soon as Saturday sun went on down.
My folks and sister would go and leave me home all alone,
Going to that big square dance in town.
Well my old radio would play that old opry show,
So I never got lonesome or blue.
I'd fall asleep in my chair and dream that I was right there,
Just singing the whole night through.

I know a man, a good friend of mine;
He spends all his time tryin' to make love work out right.
But the woman he loves, she don't feel the same, no;
I don't know much about love but at least I learned one thing:

If it don't come easy, you better let it go.
'Cause when it don't come easy, there's no natural flow.
Don't make it hard on your heart, you might be better off alone,

Virgil Caine is the name, and I served on the Danville train
'Til Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again.
In the winter of sixty-five, we were hungry, just barely alive.
By May the tenth, Richmond had fell;
It's a time I remember oh, so well

The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringin',

I seemed to know right from the start where I was goin' and how far
Like the river as she flows I just always seemed to know

But you were born beneath the restlesss moon your heart still sings a wonderin' tune
Like the wind you cannot be bound walls would only tie you down

For awhile we travelled in the same directions
But parted before the journey's end

She's fifteen and he's barely driving a car
She's got his ring and he's got the keys to her heart
It's just a matter of time
They'll spread their wings and fly

Like two sparrows in a hurricane
Trying to find their way
With a head full of dreams

Thirty some odd years ago a young man came to Memphis
Askin' 'bout a rose that used to blossom in his world
People never took the time to mind the young man's questions
Until one day they heard him ask a little green eyed girl.

What's your mama's name, child, what's your mama's name
Does she ever talk about a place called New Orleans
Has she ever mentioned a man named Buford Wilson

You just watch me, baby
One of these breathless nights
I'm gonna steal your heart
And make you mine

You're gonna say you want me
Beg me to never leave
If you don't think so

Don't it make life just a little more special knowin' you've got someone who cares
You won't ever have to be lonely always have somebody there
Don't it make everything a little bit easier knowin' you have someone like me
A hand to take you to the light when it gets a little bit too dark to see

That's when I like to stop and remind you
You've got me to hold on to baby oh you've got me to hold on to
Yes and don't it make every chance worth taking even when you try and fail
