Cal Smith Try Me One More Time Lyrics
Yes I know I've been untrue and I have hurt you through and through
But please have a mercy on this heart of mine
Take me back and try me one more time
If my darling you could see just what your leaving's done to me
You'd know that love is still the tie that binds
Take me back and try me one more time
Now in my dreams I see your face it seems there's someone in my place
But does he know that you were once just mine
Take me back and try me one more time
If you just forgive me now I make it up to you somehow
I promise ne'er again to be unkind
Oh take me back and try me one more time one more time

Waylon Jennings Kentucky Woman Lyrics
[Verse]
Kentucky woman she shines with her own kind of light
She'd look at you once and a day that's all wrong looks all right
And I love her God knows I love her Kentucky woman
If she gets to know you she gets to own you Kentucky woman
She's not the kind gets turn at the drop of her name
Cause something inside that she's got turns you on just the same
And she loves me God knows she loves me Kentucky woman
If she gets to know you she gets to own you Kentucky woman
Don't want much good Lord's earth beneath my feet
A gentle touch from that one girl and life is
Sweet and good there ain't no doubt talking about Kentucky woman
If she gets to know you she gets to own you Kentucky woman
Don't want much...
[Outro]

Wade Ray Blessed Assurance Lyrics
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God
Born of his Spirit, washed in His blood
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long
Perfect submission, perfect delight
Visions of rapture now burst on my sight
Angels descending bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long
Praising my Savior all the day long

Jeannie Seely Then Go Home To Her Lyrics
You take me out in splendor then go home to her
You whisper words so tender then go home to her
Though the things we do are wrong I'm not sure I can go on
How can you leave me here alone then go home to her?
You take me out with all your friends then go home to her
And that's when all the hurt begins, when you're home with her
I must be brave so I won't cry but I think I'll surely die
Every time you say, "That I must go home to her"
You take me home and then you're gone home to her
I'm left to face the night alone while you're home with her
If you never will be free, why must all this torture be?
If you can't always be with me then go home to her

Cal Smith Take My Word Lyrics
You haven't started missing her but take my word you will
When the glamor of the night life world starts to lose its thrill
You'll soon grow tired of going home to room that's dark and still
You haven't started hurtin' yet but take my word you will
At first you'll miss the little things that you both used to share
A favorite song the goodnight kiss the way she combs her hair
You'll visualize her in the arms of Jerry Glen or Bill
You haven't started crying yet but take my word you will
At first you'll miss the little things that you both used to share...

Charley Pride Before I Met You Lyrics
I thought I had seen pretty girls in my time but that was before I met you
I never saw one that I wanted for mine but that was before I met you
I thought I was swinging the world by the tail I thought I could never be blue
I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved but that was before I met you
I wanted to ramble and always be free but that was before I met you
I said that no woman could ever hold me but that was before I met you
I thought I was swinging...
They tell me I must reap just what I have sown but darling I hope it's not true
For once I made plans about living alone but that was before I met you
I thought I was swinging...
But that was before I met you

Ernest Tubb Careless Darlin' Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You said you loved me and me alone
And that you'd always be mine, my own
But someone new came and you did not
Have to remember so you forgot
[Chorus]
Oh careless darlin' how carelessly
You broke the vow that you made to me
With all my heart I believed in you
But, careless darlin' you were untrue
[Instrumental Break]
Oh, Buddy Emmons, now
[Verse 2]
Your last goodbye will forever ring
Within my ear and will heartaches bring
I kept my promise I kept my vow
But you kept nothing it's so plain now
[Chorus]
Oh careless darlin' how carelessly
You broke the vow that you made to me
With all my heart I believed in you
But, careless darlin' you were untrue
[Instrumental Break]
Oh, Billy Byrd, now
[Verse 3]
Now if tomorrow those bygone years
Those older memories should bring you tears
Think of our parting that luckless day
You carelessly threw my love away
[Chorus]
Oh careless darlin' how carelessly

Buck Owens Love Is Me Lyrics
I'm gonna kiss you
Like you ain't never been kissed before
I'm gonna squeeze you and tease you
And leave you a beggin' for more.
I'm gonna love you and leave you
Dry in the southern heat

You gonna think that a full grown tiger's
Got a hold on you.
Well, when I get through
You gonna wish you'd let me be
For the name of the game is love
And the love is me.

You been a walkin' around with
Your head up in the air
You been a lookin' at me
Like less you couldn't care.

You gonna think that a full grown tiger's
Got a hold on you.

You gonna wish you'd let me be
For the name of the game is love
And the love is me.

Willie Nelson In God's Eyes Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Never think evil thoughts of anyone
It's just as wrong to think as to say
For a thought I, but a word that's unspoken
In God's eyes, he sees it this way
Lend a hand if you can to a stranger
Never worry if he can't repay
For in time you'll be repaid ten times over
In God's eyes, he sees it this way
[Chorus]
In God's eyes we're like sheep in a meadow
Now and then a lamb goes astray
But open arms should awake it's returning
In God's eyes, he sees it this way
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
In God's eyes we're like sheep in a meadow
Now and then a lamb goes astray
But open arms should awake it's returning
In God's eyes, he sees it this way
In God's eyes, he sees it this way

Faron Young Sweet Dreams Lyrics
Sweet dreams of you
Every night I go through
Why can't I forget you
And start my life anew?
Instead of having
Sweet dreams about you
You don't love me it's plain
I should know you'll never wear my name
I should hate you
The whole night through
Instead of having
Sweet dreams about you
Sweet dreams of you
Dreams I know can't come true
Why can't I forget the past
Start loving someone new?
Instead of having
Sweet dreams about you
Sweet dreams about you
You don't love me it's plain
I should know you'll never wear my name
I should hate you
The whole night through
Instead of having
Sweet dreams about you...

Bobby Bare Miller's Cave Lyrics
Way down in the state of Georgia among the swamps and the everglades
There's a big hole in Tiger Mountain
God help the men who gets lost in Miller's Cave
I had a girl in Waycross Georgia but she had unfaithful ways
She made me feel I was unwanted
Like the bats and the bears in Miller's Cave
I caught her out Sunday morning with some guy they call Big Dave
The meanest man in Waycross Georgia
I'd rather fight a mountain lion in Miller's Cave
So I said you're gonna pay both you and Davy
Cause I'm gonna see you in your grave
They laughed at me and then I shot 'em
And then I dragged their cheatin' skin and bones into Miller's Cave
I couldn't stand the way she did me cause I guess I showed her I was brave
The most wanted man in the state of Georgia
But they'll never gonna find me cause I'm lost in Miller's Cave

Connie Smith More And More Lyrics
I love you more and more every day
They said our love was just emotion
That time would slowly fade away
But time only deepens my devotion
I love you more and more every day
The day you said those tender vows beside me
My joy was more than words could ever say
And darling still it grows and grows inside me
I love you more and more every day
The day you said those tender vows beside me
My joy was more than words could ever say
And darling, still it grows
And grows inside me
I love you more and more every day
I love you more and more every day...

Ernest Tubb Fraulein Lyrics
Far across the deep blue water lives an old German's daughter
By the banks of the old River Rhine
Where I loved her and left her but I can't forget her I miss my pretty Fraulein
Fraulein Fraulein look up towards the heaven
Each night when the stars start to shine
By the same stars above you I swear that I love you you are my pretty Fraulein
When the memories wander away over yonder to the sweetheart that I left behind
In a moment of glory a face comes before me the face of my pretty Fraulein
Fraulein Fraulein walk down by the river pretend that your hand's holding mine
By the same stars above you I swear that I love you you are my pretty Fraulein

Bob Wills San Antonio Rose Lyrics
Deep within my heart lies a melody
A song of old San Antone
Where in dreams I live with a memory
Beneath the stars all alone
It was there I found beside the Alamo
Enchantment strange as the blue, up above
A moonlit path that only she would know
Still hears my broken song of love
Moon in all your splendor knows only my heart
Call back my Rose, Rose of San Antone
Lips so sweet and tender like petals fallin' apart
Speak once again of my love, my own
Broken song, empty words I know
Still live in my heart all alone
For that moonlit pass by the Alamo
And Rose, my Rose of San Antone

Cal Smith I Guess I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night Lyrics
My eyes aren't seeing very well this morning
I just can't make them focus in the light
I tried to walk but I can't keep from stumbling
I guess I had too much to dream last night
I drink some tea but I can't find a table
I make some toast but I couldn't eat a bite
I'd go and face the world but I'm not able
I guess I had too much to dream last night
When you walked out my end found it's beginning
Without you there's no way to make things right
And now it seems that my whole world is ending
I guess I had too much to dream last night
[ steel ]
When you walked out my end found it's beginning...

Hank Williams Jr. Rock In My Shoe Lyrics
I've met a girl or two in my lifetime and I've loved a few but not the right time
I think I'm a wastin' my time lovin' anyone but you
You got a hold on me I just can't seem to break free
I walk a girl to town and start to fool around but honey you're the rock in my shoe
I stroll into the night spots thinkin' that I'm something real hot
I got a pretty girl and she's got a lot but I know she ain't true
It's just not the same I'm playin' a fool's game
Oh when I start to dance and try to make romance honey you're the rock in my shoe
Now my heart has reached that decision cause my mind keeps havin' a vision
No --- hers and his and and I guess I always knew
You'd make the bells ring and pull my heart strings
I'm walkin' down the aisle with the great big smile
Cause there ain't no rocks in my shoe
There's always a rock in my shoe when I walk with someone new
I try to find love in another's arms but it seems I just dream of you
Now my heart has reached...
I'm walkin' down the aisle...

As I hear the mockin birds,
I remember the words,
When yousaid that forever you'd loveme,
Now happiness is gone,
Memories linger on,
From the chains of our love
I set you free.
Sweet as the morning,
Smile like the sunshine,
Ours was a love no words could tell,
I love you, oh how I miss you,
Won't you come back,
Lily Dale.
Since we have said good bye,
I'm so blue I could cry,
Happiness is a thing called the past,
Days without you,
Make my nights oh so blue,
And always in my heart,
Our love willlast.

Cal Smith I Don't See How I Can Make It Lyrics
I don't see how I can make it with you gone
I woke up today and found that you had left me
But I wasn't so surprised to see you gone
I could see for quite a while that it was coming
But I don't see how I can make it with you gone
I can read the finest print that's in a contract
Thread a needle twenty paces from it's side
See the leaning Tower Of Pisa in perfection
But I don't see how I can make it with you gone
I remember when you said I love you truly
Said our vows of love till death would separate
I can see the days ahead are blue tomorrows
But I don't see how I can make it with you gone
I can read the finest print that's in a contract...
I don't see how I can make it with you gone

I was dancing with my darling to the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
I Introduced her to my loved one and while they were dancing
My friend stole my sweetheart from me
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
Now I know just how much I have lost
Yes, I lost my little darling on the night they were playing
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz
I was dancing with my darling to the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
I Introduced her to my loved one and while they were dancing
My friend stole my sweetheart from me
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
Now I know just how much I have lost
Yes, I lost my little darling on the night they were playing

Playin' every honky tonk in town;
Singin' every song I know to the new family I've found
So if you're lookin' for me, start makin' your rounds
Because I'm playin' every honky tonk in town
Ever since you left me, for somebody new
I thought my world had ended, but now I'm over you
Now you've given me this new life, and I know right where I'm bound
Because I'm playin' every honky tonk in town
Instrumental break
You won't see no bright lights, but there's a neon sign
A jukebox in the corner and I'm there 'til closin' time
Now I go to bed each mornin', wake when the sun goes down
Because I'm playin' every honky tonk in town
So if you're lookin' for me, start makin' your rounds
Because I'm playin' every honky tonk in town
Because I'm playin' every honky tonk in town

Ernest Tubb It's For God and Country and You Mom Lyrics
Dearest Mother, I must write, I'm a' jungle camp tonight
In Vietnam so many thousand miles away.
Though a soldier mustn't cry, but there's teardrops in my eyes
I am so homesick for the good old U-S-A.
It's for God, and country, and you, Mom.
And my sweetheart who promised me her hand.
It's for God, and country, and you, Mom.
That’s why I'm fighting in Vietnam.
I just saw buddy fall, but before he gave his all,
He said, "Tell mom my faith is still the same."
As I held his crimson hand in this strange and distant land,
He asked me to sing "America" again.
It's for God, and country, and you, Mom.
And my sweetheart who promised me her hand.
It's for God, and country, and you, Mom.
That’s why I'm fighting in Vietnam.
It's too dark now, Mom, to write, so I'll have to say goodnight
With a prayer that when the morning breaks anew,
I'll still see Old Glory there, proudly rippling in the air,
The same blessed flag that's watching over you.
It's for God, and country, and you, Mom.
And my sweetheart who promised me her hand.
It's for God, and country, and you, Mom.
That’s why I'm fighting in Vietnam.

Loretta Lynn When I Reach the Bottom (You’d Better Be There) Lyrics
[Verse]
You want me to come down to your level
You know that's pretty low
It looks like I will soon be there
'Cause I don't have very far to go
You turned my feet in your direction
And I follow everywhere
So when I reach the bottom
You'd better be there
[Chorus]
I'm going down the ladder one step at a time
I'm going down the ladder that I'll never climb
You keep a-saying, "come on down," like a fool I ask you where
So when I reach the bottom, you'd better be there
[Verse]
The road we're on is going down the hill
And I'm turning where you turn
You're teaching me your way of life
And it didn't take me very long to learn
I'll do anything you want me to
I've got to where I don't care
But when I reach the bottom
You'd better be there
[Chorus]
I'm going down the ladder one step at a time
I'm going down the ladder that I'll never climb
You keep a-saying, "come on down," like a fool I ask you where
So when I reach the bottom, you'd better be there
So when I reach the bottom, you'd better be there

Bill Anderson Bright Lights and Country Music Lyrics
I love those bright lights and country music
I won't stay home and cry tonight like all the nights before
I've just learned that I don't really need you anymore
I found a little place downtown where guys like me can go
And they've got bright lights and country music
Bright lights and country music a bottle and a glass
Soon I'll be forgetting that there ever was a past
And when everybody asks me what helped me forget so fast
I'll say bright lights and country music
A table by the bandstand a bottle filled with wine
Honky tonks were made for men with women on their minds
Nothing else can take away this loneliness of mine
Quite like bright lights and country music
Bright lights and country music...
I love those bright lights and country music
Faron Young Wonderful World Of Woman Lyrics
I'm living in the wonderful world of women
Loving every minute night and day
I'm living in the wonderful world of women
And when I go I hope I go this way
There's nothing in this world like a sweet young thing
With loving arms to hold you tight
I want to hug her 'til I hear my heart string break
I couldn't careless it's wrong or right
The girls will find me ready
I don't need a shove to learn new lessons
That I should be taught
If some sweet young thing should set a trap for me
She'll always find me willing to get caught

Hank Williams Your Cheatin Heart Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Your cheatin' heart will make you weep
You'll cry and cry and try to sleep
But sleep won't come the whole night through
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you
[Chorus]
When tears come down like falling rain
You'll toss around and call my name
You'll walk the floor the way I do
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you
[Verse 2]
Your cheatin' heart will pine someday
And crave the love you threw away
The time will come when you'll be blue
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you
[Chorus]
When tears come down like falling rain
You'll toss around and call my name
You'll walk the floor the way I do
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you

Waylon Jennings Young Widow Brown Lyrics
[Verse 1]
That Jimmy Brown died at just 25
And they lowered him under the ground
Right at his head was a mark that had read
I leave the world young widow Brown
He left her for me now it's plain to see
Just why old Jim ain't around
I know that I've tried but the man ain't alive
That can keep up with young widow Brown
[Chorus]
That woman she's crazy if she thinks
That I'll just keep on a hanging around
I'd leave in a minute 'cept for one thing
That one thing is young widow Brown
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
In her high stepping style she's a going hog wild
This night life is a whooping me down
But if I lose a place then I'm out of the race
For kisses from young widow Brown
I must be getting old my walk's getting slow
Just barely can make it around
I work night and day spend all of my pay
On pretties for young widow Brown
[Chorus]

Charley Pride Yonder Comes a Sucker Lyrics
Railroad steamboat river and cannal yonder comes a sucker and he's got my girl
And she's gone gone gone gone and she's gone gone gone
And I'll bid her my last farewell
I fell in love with a pretty little thing I thought that wedding bells would ring
She was as sweet as sweet could be till I found out what she did to me
Railroad steamboat...
I asked her mother to let her go she whispered mother please tell him no
Though he may think that I am true there's plenty more who think so too
Railroad steamboat...
I won't cry my life away some other sucker will have to pay
And when he finds that she is gone I guess I'll hear him sing this song
Railroad steamboat...
And I'll bid her my last farewell

Willie Nelson Healing Hands Of Time Lyrics
They're working while I'm missing you those healing hands of time
And soon they'll be dismissing you from this heart of mine
They'll lead me safely through the night and I'll follow as though blind
My future tightly clutched within those healing hands of time
They let me close my eyes just then those healing hands of time
And soon they'll let me sleep again those healing hands of time
So already I've reached mountain peaks and I've just begun to climb
I'll get over you by clinging to those healing hands of time
I'll get over you by clinging to those healing hands of time

Hank Williams You Win Again Lyrics
The news is out - all over town
That you've been seen - a-runnin' 'round
I know that I - should leave, but then
I just can't go - you win again.
This heart of mine - could never see
What ev'rybod - y knew but me
Just trusting you - was my great sin
What can I do - you win again.
I'm sorry for - your victim now
'Cause soon his head - like mine will bow
He'll give his heart - but all in vain
And someday say - you win again.
You have no heart - you have no shame
You take true love - and give the blame
I guess that I - should not complain
I love you still - you win again.

Wanda Jackson Right Or Wrong Lyrics
Right or wrong, I'll be with you
I'll do what you ask me to
For I believe that I belong
By your side, right or wrong
Right or wrong, it's gotta be
Always you, always me
Won't you take me along
To be with you, right or wrong?
If it's right for me to love you
It can't be wrong for me to care
If you will say you love me
My life with you, I'll share
Right or wrong, day by day
All my love, all the way
For I believe that I belong
By your side, right or wrong
If it's right for me to love you
It can't be wrong for me to care
If you will say you love me
My life with you, I'll share
Right or wrong, day by day
All my love, all the way
For I believe that I belong
By your side, right or wrong

Willie Nelson Have I Told You Lately That I Love You ? Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Have I told you lately that I love you?
Could I tell you once again somehow?
Have I told you how with all my heart and soul I need you?
Well, darling, I'm telling you now
[Chorus]
My heart would break in two if I should lose you
I'm no good without you anyhow
Have I told you lately that I love you?
Well, darling, I'm telling you now

[Verse 2]
Have I told you lately when I'm sleeping
Every dream that I dream is you somehow?
And have I told you how my every thought is in your keeping?
Well, darling, I'm telling you now

My world would end today if I should lose you
'Cause I'm no good without you anyhow
Have I told you lately that I love you?
Well, darling, I'm telling you now

Glen Campbell Gentle on My Mind Lyrics
It’s knowing that your door is always open
And your path is free to walk
That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag
Rolled up and stashed behind your couch
And it’s knowing I’m not shackled
By forgotten words and bonds
And the ink stains that are dried upon some line
That keeps you in the backroads
By the rivers of my memory
That keeps you ever gentle on my mind
It’s not clinging to the rocks and ivy
Planted on their columns now that bind me
Or something that somebody said
Because they thought we fit together walking
It’s just knowing that the world will not be cursing
Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find
That you’re moving on the backroads
By the rivers of my memory
And for hours you’re just gentle on my mind
Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines
And the junkyards and the highways come between us
And some other woman’s cryin’ to her mother
‘Cause she turned and I was gone
I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face
And the summer sun might burn me ’til I’m blind
But not to where I cannot see
You walkin’ on the backroads
By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind
I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin’
Cracklin’ caldron in some train yard
My beard a roughening coal pile,
And a dirty hat pulled low across my face
Through cupped hands ’round the tin can
I pretend to hold you to my breast and find
That you’re waiting from the backroads
By the rivers of my memories
Ever smilin’ ever gentle on my mind

Don Rich Hello California lyrics
Hello California, California here I come
Well, here I am on my way back home
With my discharge in my hand
It sure is good have my two feet
Back on solid land
I didn't see a woman for eighteen days
When I crawled aboard that ship
And seein' all the girls in mini skirts
Is givin' my heart a lift
Hello California, you sure are place to see
Goodbye Arizona, you're just a little too hot for me
Well, New York City and Albuquerque
Sure was a lotta fun
Hello California, California here I come
--- Instrumental ---
Well, when I left home about a year ago
I sure wasn't much of a man
And there's still a lotta things in this old world
That I don't understand
But there's one thing that I'm certain of
I should have figured it out before
Oh, when I get back to California
I ain't never gonna leave no more
Hello California, you sure are place to see
Goodbye Arizona, you're just a little too hot for me
Well, New York City and Albuquerque
Sure was a lotta fun
Hello California, California here I come
Hello California, California here I come...

Johnny Cash Folsom Prison Blues Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I hear the train a comin’, it’s rolling ’round the bend
And I ain’t seen the sunshine since I don’t know when
I’m stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin’ on
But that train keeps a rollin’ on down to San Antone
[Verse 2]
When I was just a baby my mama told me, “Son
Always be a good boy, don’t ever play with guns”
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die
When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry
[Verse 3]
I bet there’s rich folks eating in a fancy dining car
They’re probably drinkin’ coffee and smoking big cigars
Well I know I had it coming, I know I can’t be free
But those people keep a-movin’
And that’s what tortures me
[Verse 4]
Well if they freed me from this prison
If that railroad train was mine
I bet I’d move it on a little farther down the line
Far from Folsom prison, that’s where I want to stay
And I’d let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away

George Jones White Lightning Lyrics
Well, in the North of Carolina, way back in the hills
Me and my old pappy and he had him a still
He brewed white lightnin’ till the sun went down
And then you’d fill him a jug and he’d pass it around
Mighty, mighty pleasin’, pappy’s corn squeezin’
Ssh, white lightning
Well, the “G” men, “T” men, revenuers, too
Searchin’ for the place where he made his brew
They were looking, tryin to book him, but my pappy kept on cookin’
Phoo, white lightning
Well, I asked my old pappy why he called his brew
White lightning ‘stead of mountain dew
I took a little sip and right away I knew
As my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue
Lightning started flashin’, thunder started clashin’
Fshhh, white lightnin’
Well, the “G” men, “T” men, revenuers, too
Searchin’ for the place where he made his brew
They were looking, tryin to book him but my pappy kept on cookin’
Whshh, white lightning
Well, a city slicker came and he said “I’m tough”
I think I want to taste that powerful stuff
He took one s-slug and drank it right down
And I heard him a-moaning as he hit the ground
Mighty, mighty pleasin’, your pappy’s corn squeezin’
Sshoo, white lightning
The “G” men, “T” men, revenuers, too
Searchin’ for the place where he made his brew
They were looking, tryin’ to book him but my pappy kept on cookin’
Sshoo, white lightning

Hank Williams Jambalaya lyrics
Goodbye Joe me gotta go me oh my oh
Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
My Yvonne the sweetest one me oh my oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and filé gumbo
Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio
Pick guitar fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
Thibodaux Fontaineaux the place is buzzin'
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style and go hog wild me oh my oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
Settle down far from town get me a pirogue
And I'll catch all the fish in the bayou
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie...
Later on, swap my mon, get me a pirogue
And I'll catch all the fish on the bayou
Swap my mon, to buy Yvonne what she need-oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie...
Randall Hank Williams (born May 26, 1949), known professionally as Hank Williams Jr. or Bocephus, is an American singer-songwriter and musician. He is the son of country music legend Hank Williams.
Hank Williams Jr. began his recording career as a traditional country singer. In the first phase of his career, he predominantly recorded covers of his father's songs. He also recorded singles under the name Luke the Drifter Jr. (a reference to his father's alias "Luke the Drifter"), and rock and roll singles under the aliases Rockin' Randall and Bocephus, a nickname given to him by his father.
Williams' style evolved slowly as he struggled to find his own voice and place within traditional country music, before challenging the country music establishment with a blend of traditional country, rock and blues. This style has been classified as southern rock, country rock, blues rock, outlaw country, country blues and rockabilly.
As a multi-instrumentalist, Williams' repertoire of skills includes guitar, bass guitar, upright bass, steel guitar, banjo, dobro, piano, keyboards, saxophone, harmonica, fiddle, and drums.

Waylon Jennings Nashville Rebel Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They call me the Nashville Rebel
They say leave that boy alone
Don't you give him advice or he'll turn to ice
And you might as well talk to stone
[Chorus]
But I've got things to do
And things to say in my own way
I don't have time for your parties
My love's little guessing games
[Verse 2]
I've got songs to write in the still of night
I was born to write and sing
And I've got things to do
And things to say in my own way
They call me the Nashville Rebel
Little girl don't you waste your time
For I've given my heart to this old guitar
You deserve a better love than mine
[Chorus]
But I've got things to do
And things to say in my own way
I don't have time for your parties
My love's little guessing games
[Verse 3]
I'd like to have a wife and live a normal life
But I just don't have the time
'Cause I've got things to do
And things to say in my own way
[Outro]
I've got things to do and things to say
In my own way

Jim Ed Brown Broad Minded Man Lyrics
I’ve been a rascal since the day I was born
Oh what a good life I’ve had
I’ve got more memories than leaves on a tree
And I owe it all to my dad
Daddy was a broad minded man
He had ‘em on his mind all the time
I’m gonna be like dad in every way I can
I’ll try to be a broad minded man
I’ve lived in haste attempted to taste
Every drop of life’s sweet wine
So if there’s anything I ain’t done
It’s because I haven’t had the time
I’ve got a woman she don’t understand
She calls my life a shame
And throws up a howl every time I’m on the prowl
And I’m sure my momma did the same
Repeat #2
I hope there ain’t a girl anywhere in this world
Who’s been hurt by something that I’ve done
If I’ve caused a tear to fall then I’m sorry for it all
Cause I swear it was all done in fun
Repeat #2
Yes I’ll always be a broad minded man

Eddy Arnold I’ve Been Thinking Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been thinking
Thinking of the way that you wiggle when you walk
I've been thinking
Thinking of the way that you giggle when you talk about love
I've been thinking
Thinking of the way that you quiver when you pet
I've been thinking
Thinking of the lips that I never, ever get enough of
[Chorus]
And in my thoughts, you never say "No, no, no"
Your lips are ready to go-go-go
And that's why I think thinking is so much good, clean, innocent fun
I've been thinking
Thinking of the time when I'll really make you mine
I've been thinking that I could spend a lifetime thinking of you
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
I've been thinking
I've been waking up in the middle of the night, tossin', turning
Wishing I could love you a little by the light of the moon
I've been thinking
Thinking of the times I've cuddled you before, burnin', yearning
Hoping I could hold you and cuddle you some more real soon
[Chorus]
And in my thoughts, you never say "No, no, no"
Your lips are ready to go-go-go
And that's why I think thinking is so much good, clean, innocent fun
I've been thinking
Thinking of the time when I'll really make you mine
I've been thinking that I could spend a lifetime thinking of you

Darrell McCall It's The Water Lyrics
They brew some mighty sweet water
Down in, Sweetwater Texas
And the sound of the jukebox
Blows my mind
I seem to lose myself
Down in, Sweetwater Texas
In a honky tonk
With a woman on my mind
It's the water
It's the water
It's the water
'Cause it says so on the can
It's the water
It's the water
It's the water
That made me a honky tonk man
If ever you are traveling
Out through Sweetwater Texas
And happen to look up
And read the signs
Well it's cool inside and the music's
Sweet in Sweetwater Texas
And you'll always find a girl
That'll blow your mind
It's the water
It's the water
It's the water
'Cause it says so on the can
