Don’t Worry Lyrics

Song by 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 feelin’ blue
Don’t be ashamed, it might have been you
Oh-oh-oh, oh, love
Kiss me one time, then go, love
I understand, don’t worry ’bout me

Sweet, sweet, sweet love, I want you to be
As happy as I when you loved 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 good-bye
One heart is free, one heart will cry
Oh-oh-oh, oh, sweet, sweet baby, sweet baby, sweet
It’s all right, don’t worry ’bout me

I’ll be home for Christmas;
You can plan on me.
Please have snow and mis-tle-toe
And presents on the tree.

Christmas eve will find me
Where the love light gleams.
I’ll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams.

I’ll be home for Christmas;
You can plan on me.
Please have snow and mis-tle-toe
And presents on the tree.

Christmas eve will find me
Where the love light gleams.
I’ll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams

Neon Moon Lyrics

Song by Brooks & Dunn

When the sun goes down on my side of town
That lonesome feeling comes to my door
And the whole world turns blue
There’s a rundown bar ‘cross the railroad tracks
I got a table for two way in the back
Where I sit alone and think of losing you

I spend most every night
Beneath the light
Of a neon moon

Now if you lose your one and only
There’s always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon

I think of two young lovers running wild and free
I close my eyes and sometimes see
You in the shadows of this smoke-filled room
No telling how many tears I’ve sat here and cried
Or how many lies that I’ve lied
Telling my poor heart she’ll come back someday

Oh, but I’ll be alright
As long as there’s light
From a neon moon

Oh, if you lose your one and only
There’s always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon

Jukebox plays on, drink by drink
And the words of every sad song seem to say what I think
And its hurt inside of me, ain’t never gonna end

Oh, but I’ll be alright
As long as there’s light
From a neon moon

Oh, if you lose your one and only
There’s always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon

Come watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon
Oh, watch your broken dreams
Dance in and out of the beams
Of a neon moon

You Don’t Know Me Lyrics

Song by Ray Charles

You give your hand to me and then you say “hello”
And I can hardly speak my heart is beating so
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well but you don’t know me, no

No, you don’t know the one who dreams of you each night
And longs to kiss your lips
And longs to hold you tight
To you, I’m just a friend, that’s all I’ve ever been
No, you don’t know me

I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you, yeah
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by
A chance that you might love me too

You give your hand to me and then you say, “goodbye”
And I watched you walk away beside the lucky guy
I know you’ll never know
The one who loved you so
No, you don’t know me

But I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
I’m afraid and shy, I let my chance go by
A chance that you might love me too

You give your hand to me and then you say “goodbye”
And I watched you walk away beside the lucky guy
Oh, you’ll never ever know
The one who loved you so
No, you don’t know me

I say you’ll never ever know
The one who loved you so
No, you don’t know me
No, you don’t know me

I Still Believe in Waltzes Lyrics

Song by Conway Twitty and Loretta Lynn

I pushed him away
And carefully said
I’m just not that kind of girl

You might think I’m square
‘Cause you’ve been around and you’re wise
In the ways of the world

I know that making is taking for granted
It’s all easy come, easy go
He pulled me close and whispered
Now darlin’ there’s something I want you to know

I still believe in Waltzes
And girls with old fashioned ways
I still believe in love songs
In the good, in the good ole days

I’ve always liked happy endings
Somebody’s dream coming true
I still believe in Waltzes
And dancing the last one with you

He slipped into bed, I turned over and said
I’m worried you working so late
Is it just your job that keeps you away, Lord
I know the temptations are gray

I’m just a wife, I’m just a momma
It’s not too exciting I know
He pulled me close and whispered those same words
He told me that night long ago

I still believe in Waltzes
And girls with old fashioned ways
I still believe in love songs
In the good, in the good ole days

I’ve always liked happy endings
Somebody’s dream coming true
I still believe in Waltzes
And I’ll dance the last one with you

We still believe in Waltzes

Nobody Knows but Me Lyrics

Song by Merle Haggard

Nobody knows about the jailhouse blues till you get within four walls
The jailerman turns that big black key that’s when your spirit falls
You drag yourself up to the bars and while you gaze out at the stars
This is what you’ll say.

Hey why did I stray from the righteous path, nobody knows but me
There on the outside you all can laugh but I don’t need your sympathy
For after I’ve paid for the liquor I’ve stole
I’ll leave this place worth my weight in gold
So why did I stray from the righteous path nobody knows but me.

When you realize that you’re all alone seated in a two-by-four
That little cell is just a taste of hell if you ain’t been there before
Well you’re locked up tight but they treat you fair
You get everything that you need in there
That’s just why you’ll say.

Well, why did I stray from the righteous path, nobody knows but me
There on the outside you all can laugh but I don’t need your sympathy
For after I’ve paid for the liquor I’ve stole
I’ll leave this place worth my weight in gold
So why did I stray from the righteous path nobody knows but me.

Nobody knows but me…

Mama Tried Lyrics

Song by Merle Haggard

The first thing I remember knowing
Was a lonesome whistle blowing
And a young gun’s dream of growing up to ride
On a freight train leaving town
Not knowing where I’m bound
No one could change my mind, but mama tried

One and only rebel child
From the family, meek and mild
My mama seemed to know what lay in store
Despite all my Sunday learning
Towards the bad I kept on turning
‘Til mama couldn’t hold me anymore

And I turned 21 in prison, doing life without parole
No one could steer me right but mama tried, mama tried
Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading, I denied
That leaves only me to blame ’cause mama tried

Dear old daddy, rest his soul
Left my mom a heavy load
She tried so very hard to fill his shoes
Working hours without rest
Wanted me to have the best
She tried to raise me right but I refused

I turned 21 in prison, doing life without parole
No one could steer me right but mama tried, mama tried
Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading, I denied
Leaves only me to blame ’cause mama tried

Just Between the Two of Us Lyrics

Merle Haggard, Bonnie Owens

Just between the two of us, we know our love is gone
People think it’s wonderful our love can be so true
You never say an angry word no matter what I do
And you have so much faith in me you trust me anywhere
But the reason if they only knew is that we just don’t care

Just between the two of us, let’s give up this fantasy
For we no longer care enough to even disagree
Everybody envies us and the way we get along
But just between the two of us, we know our love is gone

Wish we could go back again to days that used to be
We fought a lot but even then I knew you cared for me
Now we get along so well no teardrops ever fall
But there’s no love, no anything, there’s nothing left at all

Just between the two of us, let’s give up this fantasy
For we no longer care enough to even disagree
Everybody envies us and the way we get along
But just between the two of us, we know our love is gone

“Family Bible” – A Willie Nelson Classic Country Song Live Performance (1999)

By

On August 8, 2024

In Country Music, Willie Nelson

Willie Nelson performed his song “Family Bible” live with some great country singers. He began writing this song in 1957. His inspiration for the song came from his grandmother, Nancy Elizabeth Smothers, who would sing “Rock of Ages” and read from the Bible after supper.

Willie Nelson is a country music icon. A unique and versatile artist, his innovative songwriting has resulted in No. 1 hits for dozens of artists – including more than twenty for himself – and a recorded output that is “so vast,” music journalist Bob Allen writes, “as to confound all but the most dedicated discographers.”

Willie Nelson’s awards are numerous, including 11 CMAs, 12 GRAMMYs, and 6 ACMs. He was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1993, received the GRAMMY Lifetime Achievement Award in 1999, and won the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize in 2015. In 2003, CMT placed him at No. 4 among the “Greatest Men of Country.” And, in 2008, his distinctive vocal style – once considered a deficit – earned him the No. 88 spot on Rolling Stone magazine’s list of 100 Greatest Singers of All Time.

Family Bible Lyrics

There’s a family Bible on the table
Each page is worn and hard to read
But the family Bible on the table
Will ever be my key to memories

At the end of day when work was over
And when the evenin’ meal was done
Dad would read to us from the family Bible
And we’d count our many blessings, one by one

I can see us sittin’ round the table
When from the family Bible dad would read
I can hear my mother softly singing
Rock of ages
Rock of ages cleft for me

Now this old world
Of ours is filled with troubles
This old world would also better be
If we’d found more Bibles on the tables
And mothers singin’ rock of ages, cleft for me

I can see us sittin’ round the table
When from the family Bible dad would read
And I can hear my mother softly singin’
Rock of ages
Rock of ages cleft for me

Rock of ages
Rock of ages cleft for me
