Some Broken Hearts Never Mend Lyrics

Song by Don Williams

Coffee black, cigarettes
Start this day like all the rest
First thing every morning that I do
Is start missing you

Some broken hearts never mend
Some memories never end
Some tears will never dry
My love for you will never die

Rendezvous in the night
A willing woman to hold me tight
But in the middle of love’s embrace
I see your face

Some broken hearts never mend
Some memories never end
Some tears will never dry
My love for you will never die

Some broken hearts never mend
Some memories never end
Some tears will never dry
My love for you will never die

New San Antonio Rose Lyrics

Song by Johnny Cash

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 pass that only she would know
Still hears my broken song of love
Moon in all your splendor know only my heart
Call back my rose, rose of San Antone
Lips so sweet and tender like petals falling 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
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 pass that only she would know
Still hears my broken song of love
Moon in all your splendor know only my heart
Call back my rose, rose of San Antone
Lips so sweet and tender like petals falling 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

The Roots of My Raising Lyrics

Song by Merle Haggard and The Strangers

I left the four lane highway took a blacktop seven miles
Down by the old country school I went to as a child
Two miles down a gravel road I could see the proud old home
A tribute to a way of life that’s almost come and gone.

The roots of my raising run deep
I come back for the strength that I need
And hope comes no matter how far down
I sink the roots of my raising run deep.

I pulled into the driveway Lord it sure was good to be there
And through the open door I could see that dad was asleep in his favorite chair
In his hand was a picture of mom and I remembered how close they were
So I just turned away I didn’t want to wake him spoil his dreams of her.

A christian Mom who had the strength for life the way she did
Then to pull that apron off and do the Charleston for us kids
Dad a quiet man who’s gentle voice was seldom heard
Who could borrow money at the bank simply on his word.

The roots of my raisin’ run deep
I come back for the strength that I need
And hope comes no matter how far down
I sink the roots of my raising run deep.

The roots of my raisin’ run deep…

Lord I Hope This Day Is Good Lyrics

Song by Don Williams

Lord, I hope this day is good
I’m feelin’ empty and misunderstood
I should be thankful, Lord, I know I should
But Lord, I hope this day is good

Lord, have you forgotten me
I’ve been prayin’ to you faithfully
I’m not sayin’ I’m a righteous man
But Lord, I hope you understand

I don’t need fortune and I don’t need fame
Send down the thunder, Lord, send down the rain
But when you’re plannin’ just how it will be
Plan a good day for me

Lord, I hope this day is good
I’m feelin’ empty and misunderstood
I should be thankful, Lord, I know I should
But Lord, I hope this day is good

You’ve been the King since the dawn of time
All that I’m asking is a little less crime
It might be hard for the devil to do
But it would be easy for You

Lord, I hope this day is good
I’m feelin’ empty and misunderstood
I should be thankful, Lord, I know I should
But Lord, I hope this day is good

‘Till The Rivers All Run Dry Lyrics

Song by Don Williams

‘Till the rivers all run dry

‘Till the sun falls from the sky
‘Till life on earth is through
I’ll be needing you
I know sometimes you may wonder

From little things I say and do
But there’s no need for you to wonder
If I need you
‘Cause I’ll need you

‘Till the rivers all run dry
‘Till the sun falls from the sky
‘Till life on earth is through
I’ll be needing you

— Instrumental —

Too many times I don’t tell you
Too many things get in the way
And even though sometimes I hurt you
Still you show me
In every way
‘Till the rivers all run dry
‘Till the sun falls from the sky
‘Till life on earth is through
I’ll be needing you

Today I Started Loving You Again Lyrics

Song by Merle Haggard

Today I started loving you again
And I’m right back where I’ve really always been
I got all over you just long enough to let my heartache mend
And then today I started loving you again

What a fool I was to think I could get by
With only these few million tears I’ve cried
I should have known the worst was yet to come
And that cryin’ time for me had just begun

Today I started loving you again
And I’m right back where I’ve really always been
I got all over you just long enough to let my heartache mend
And then today I started loving you again

Today I started loving you again
And I’m right back where I’ve really always been
I got all over you just long enough to let my heartache mend
And then today I started loving you again

The Way I Am Lyrics

Wish I were down on some blue bayou
With a bamboo cane stuck in the sand
But the road I’m on don’t seem to go there
So I just dream and keep on bein’ the way I am

Wish I’d enjoyed what makes my living
Did what I do with a willing hand
Some would run, oh, but that ain’t like me
So I’ll just dream and keep on bein’ the way I am

The way I am, don’t fit my shackles
The way I am, reality
I can almost see that bobber dancin’
So I’ll just dream and keep on bein’ the way I am

The way I am, don’t fit my shackles
The way I am, reality
I can almost see that bobber dancin’
So I’ll just dream and keep on bein’ the way I am
I’ll just dream and keep on bein’ the way I am

“Believe” Lyrics

Song by Brooks & Dunn

Old man Wrigley lived in that white house
Down the street where I grew up
My mama used to send me over with things
We struck a friendship up
I spent a few long summers
Out on his old porch swing

Said he was in the war, when in the navy
Lost his wife, lost his baby
Broke down and asked him one time
“How you keep from goin’ crazy?”
He said, “I’ll see my wife and son in just a little while”
Mm, I asked him what he meant, he looked at me and smiled

Said, “I raise my hands
Bow my head
I’m findin’ more and more truth
In the words written in red
They tell me that there’s more to life
Than just what I can see, I believe”

A few years later I was off at college
Talkin’ to mom on the phone one night
Gettin’ all caught up on the gossip
The ins and outs of the small town life
She said, “Oh, by the way son
Old man Wrigley’s died”

Later on that night
I laid there thinkin’ back
Thought about a couple long-lost summers
I didn’t know whether to cry or laugh
If there was ever anybody
Deserved a ticket to the other side
It’d be that sweet old man
Who looked me in the eye

Said, “I raise my hands
Bow my head
I’m findin’ more and more truth
In the words written in red
They tell me that there’s more to life
Than just what I can see”

I can’t quote the book
The chapter or the verse
You can’t tell me it all ends
In a slow ride in a hearse
You know I’m more and more convinced
The longer that I live
Yeah, this can’t be (no, this can’t be), no, this can’t be (no, this can’t be)
No, this can’t be all there is

Lord, I raise my hands
Bow my head
Oh, I’m findin’ more and more truth
In the words written in red
They tell me that there’s more to life
Than just what I can see (just what I can see), I believe

Oh, I (I believe)
I believe
I believe
(I believe)
I believe
(I believe)
I believe
(I believe)
I believe
(I believe)
I believe

White Christmas

Merle Haggard

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And the children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
Just to hear sleigh bells in the snow

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

Mama’s Hungry Eyes Lyrics

Song by Merle Haggard

A canvas covered cabin in a crowded labor camp
Stands out in this memory I revile
My daddy raised a family there with two hard working hand
And tried to feed my mamas hungry eyes.

He dreamed of something better and my mama’s faith was stong
Us kids were just to young to realize
That another class of people put us somewhere just below
One more reason for my mama’s hungry eyes.

Mama, never had the luxury she wanted
But it wasn’t ’cause my daddy didn’t try
She only wanted things she really needed
One more reason for my mama’s hungry eyes.

I remember mama praying for a better way of life
But I don’t recall a change of any size
Just a little loss of courage as their age began to show
And more sadness in my mama’s hungry eyes.

Mama never had the luxury she wanted
But it wasn’t ’cause my daddy didn’t try
She only wanted things she really needed
One more reason for my mama’s hungry eyes.

Oh, I still recall my mama’s hungry eyes…
