Write This Down Lyrics

George Strait

I never saw the end in sight; fools are kind of blind.
Thought everything was going alright, but I was running out of time.
‘Cause you had one foot out the door, I swear I didn’t see
But if you’re really going away, here’s some final words from me.

Baby, write this down, take a little note to remind you in case you didn’t know,
Tell yourself I love you and I don’t want you to go, write this down.
Take my words, read ’em every day, keep ’em close by, don’t you let ’em fade away,
So you’ll remember what I forgot to say, write this down.

I’ll sign it at the bottom of the page, I’ll swear under oath
‘Cause every single word is true, and I think you need to know,
So use it as a bookmark, stick it on your ‘frigerator door,
Hang it in a picture frame up above the mantel where you’ll see it for sure.

Baby, write this down, take a little note to remind you in case you didn’t know,
Tell yourself I love you and I don’t want you to go, write this down.
Take my words, read ’em every day, keep ’em close by, don’t you let ’em fade away,
So you’ll remember what I forgot to say, write this down.

You can find a chisel, I can find a stone.
Folks will be reading these words, long after we’re gone.

Baby, write this down, take a little note to remind you in case you didn’t know,
Tell yourself I love you and I don’t want you to go, write this down.
Take my words, read ’em every day, keep ’em close by, don’t you let ’em fade away,
So you’ll remember what I forgot to say, write this down.

Oh I love you and I don’t want you to go, baby write this down.

Is Anybody Goin’ to San Antone

Charley Pride

Rain drippin’ off the brim of my hat
It sure is cold today
And here I am walkin’ down 66
Wish she hadn’t done me that way

Sleepin’ under a table in a roadside park
A man could wake up dead
But it sure seems warmer than it did
Sleepin’ in our king sized bed

Is anybody goin’ to San Antone
Or Phoenix, Arizona?
Any place is all right as long as I
Can forget I’ve ever known her

Wind whippin’ down the neck of my shirt
Like I ain’t got nothin’ on
But I’d rather fight, the wind and rain
Than what I’ve been fightin’ at home

Yonder comes a truck with the U.S. Mail
People writin’ letters back home
Tomorrow she’ll probably want me back
But I’ll still be just as gone

Is anybody goin’ to San Antone
Or Phoenix, Arizona?
Any place is all right as long as I
Can forget I’ve ever known her
Any place is all right as long as I
Can forget I’ve ever known her

Blue Clear Sky Lyrics

George Strait

You swear you’ve had enough, you’re ready to give up
On that little lie they call love, then out of the blue clear sky
Fallin’ right into your hands, like rain on the desert sand
It’s the last thing you had planned out of the blue clear sky.

Here she comes a walkin’ talkin’ true love
Sayin’ I been lookin’ for you love
Surprise your new love has arrived
Out of the blue clear sky.

Ain’t love a funny thing, one day you’re givin’ up the dream
And the next you’re pickin’ out a ring out of the blue clear sky.

Here she comes a walkin’ talkin’ true love
Sayin’ I been lookin’ for you love
Surprise your new love has arrived
Out of the blue clear sky.

Under the Bridge Lyrics

Merle Haggard

I lost my job in Saginaw working on the railroad
After twenty years they just put me on the side
Now I’m hungry in the street with no place to hang my hat
And nothin’ but an empty dream to ride

But under the bridge, I can make believe I’m living in a castle
Under the bridge, my baby and me
And I can pretend that I’m a king and this is my kingdom
Under the bridge making believe

Hey, the doors are always open to any old weary traveler
And you’ll find some great grub feedin’ here below
Any old bridge can be a palace, call it what you want to
It’s a place to be when you got no place to go

Under the bridge, I can make believe I’m living in a castle
Under the bridge, my baby and me
And I can pretend I’m a king, this is my kingdom
Under the bridge making believe
Hey, under the bridge making believe

Don’t Worry About Me Lyrics

Marty Robbins

Don’t worry ’bout me, it’s all over now
Though I may be blue, I’ll manage somehow.
Love can’t be explained, can’t be controlled
One day it’s warm, next day it’s cold.

Don’t pity me, ’cause I’m feeling blue
Don’t be ashamed it might happen to you.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, love, kiss me
One time then go love, I’ll understand
Don’t worry ’bout me.

Sweet, sweet, sweet, love will I want you to be
As happy as I when you love me
I’ll never forget you your sweet memory it’s all over now

Don’t worry bout me.

When one heart tells one heart, one heart goodbye
One heart is free, one heart will cry
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh sweet, sweet baby, sweet baby, sweet
It’s all right don’t worry ’bout me…

When Did You Stop Loving Me

George Strait

When did you stop loving me?
How long have I been a memory?
I’ve gotta know for my own sanity
Tell me when did you stop loving me?

Was it that night that you stayed out until dawn?
You know that night has haunted me for so long
Or was your love already cold?
Tell me please, I’ve gotta know
Darling, when did you stop loving me?

There was a time when you worshiped where I stood
Heaven knows I’d bring it back if I could
Now I can tell when we make love
It ain’t me you’re thinking of
Tell me when did you stop loving me?

Darling when did you stop loving me?

All My Ex’s Live in Texas Lyrics

All my ex’s live in Texas
And Texas is the place I’d dearly love to be
But all my ex’s live in Texas
And that’s why I hang my hat in Tennessee

Rosanna’s down in Texarkana
Wanted me to push her broom
Sweet Eileen’s in Abilene
She forgot I hung the moon
And Allison’s in Galveston
Somehow lost her sanity
And Dimple’s who now lives in Temple’s
Got the law looking for me

All my ex’s live in Texas
And Texas is the place I’d dearly love to be
But all my ex’s live in Texas
And that’s why I hang my hat in Tennessee

I remember that old Frio River
Where I learned to swim
But it brings to mind another time
Where I wore my welcome thin
By transcendental meditation
I go there each night
But I always come back to myself
Long before daylight

All my ex’s live in Texas
And Texas is the place I’d dearly love to be
But all my ex’s live in Texas
Therefore I reside in Tennessee

Some folks think I’m hidin’
It’s been rumored that I died
But I’m alive and well in Tennessee

The Fightin’ Side Of Me Lyrics

Merle Haggard

I hear people talkin’ bad about the way
We have to live here in this country
Harpin’ on the wars we fight
And gripin’ ’bout the way things oughta be

And I don’t mind ’em switchin’ sides
And standin’ up for things they believe in
When they’re runnin’ down my country, man
They’re walkin’ on the fightin’ side of me

Yeah, walkin’ on the fightin’ side of me
Runnin’ down the way of life
Our fightin’ men have fought and died to keep
If you don’t love it, leave it
Let this song I’m singin’ be a warnin’
When you’re runnin’ down my country, man
You’re walkin’ on the fightin’ side of meI read about some squirrely guy
Who claims, he just don’t believe in fightin’
And I wonder just how long
The rest of us can count on bein’ free

They love our milk and honey
But they preach about some other way of livin’
When they’re runnin’ down my country, hoss
They’re walkin’ on the fightin’ side of me

Yeah, walkin’ on the fightin’ side of me
Runnin’ down the way of life
Our fightin’ men have fought and died to keep
If you don’t love it, leave it
Let this song I’m singin’ be a warnin’
When you’re runnin’ down my country, man
You’re walkin’ on the fightin’ side of me

Yeah, walkin’ on the fightin’ side of me
Runnin’ down the way of life
Our fightin’ men have fought and died to keep
If you don’t love it, leave it
Let this song I’m singin’ be a warnin’
When you’re runnin’ down my country, man
You’re walkin’ on the fightin’ side of me

Silver Wings Lyrics

By Merle Haggard & The Strangers

Silver wings shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
They’re taking you away, leaving me lonely
Silver wings slowly fading out of sight

Don’t leave me, I cry
Don’t take that airplane ride
But you locked me out of your mind
And left me standing here behind

Silver wings shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
They’re taking you away, leaving me lonely
Silver wings slowly fading out of sight

Silver wings shining in the sunlight
Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight
They’re taking you away, leaving me lonely
Silver wings slowly fading out of sight
Slowly fading out of sight

I Told You So Lyrics

Suppose I called you up tonight
And told you that I love you
And suppose I said I want to come back home
And suppose I cried and said I think
I finally learned my lesson
And I’m tired of spending all my time alone

If I told you that I realize
You’re all I ever wanted
And it’s killing me to be so far away
Would you tell me that you love me too
And would we cry together
Or would you simply laugh at me and say

I told you so
Oh, I told you so
I told you some day you’d come
Crawling back and asking me to take you in
I told you so
But you had to go
And now I’ve found somebody new
And you will never break my heart in two again

If got down on my knees
And told you I was yours forever
Would you get down on yours too and take my hand
Would we get that old-time feeling
Would we laugh and talk for hours
The way we did when our love first began

Would you tell me that you’ve missed me too
And that you’ve been so lonely
And you’ve waited for the day that I return
And we’d live and love forever
And that I’m your one and only
Or would you say the table’s finally turned

Would you say I told you so
Oh I told you so
I told you someday you’d come
Crawling back and asking me to take you in
I told you so
But you had to go
And now I’ve found somebody new
And you will never break my heart in two again

And now I’ve found somebody new
And you will never break my heart in two again
