When Times Were Good Lyrics

Song by Merle Haggard

There’s a Place, I can go, in my memories,
Back to a life I chose to leave behind
And sometime I still need to remember
When Times were good, and you were mine

I’m still livin’ with my reasons for leaving
They must have seemed more important at the time,
Now I only dream about the two of us,
When times were good, and you were mine.

I still have everything that came between us
My old guitar and a weakness for the wine
So tonight I thought I’d write one for the memories
When times were good, and you were mine.

There’s a Golden Eagle rollin out of Memphis
And a country singer still caught between the lines
And I know that this old road I’m on will never lead me
Where times were good, and you were mine

I still have everything that came between us
Like My old guitar and this weakness for the wine,
So Tonight I Thought I’d write one for the memories
Where times were good, and you were mine.

It’s Not Love (But It’s Not Bad) Lyrics

Song by Merle Haggard and The Strangers

She was always there each time I needed you
Holding on to me like I held on to you
We still don’t have what you and I once had
No, it’s not love, but it’s not bad

No, it’s not love, not like ours was
It’s not love, but it keeps love from driving me mad
And I don’t have to wonder who she’s had
No, it’s not love, but it’s not bad

I turn to her when you leave me alone
Sometimes even when you’re here, and you’re still gone
She’s slowly changing what you leave so sad
No, it’s not love, but it’s not bad

No, it’s not love, not like ours was
It’s not love but it keeps love from driving me mad
I don’t have to wonder who she’s had
No, it’s not love, but it’s not bad

No, it’s not love, not like ours was
It’s not love but it keeps love from driving me mad
And I don’t have to wonder who she’s had
No, it’s not love, but it’s not bad

Lay Down Beside Me Lyrics

Song by Don Williams

I’ve spent my life looking for you
Finding my way wasn’t easy to do
I know there was your all the while
And its been worth every mile

So lay down beside me
Love me and hide me
Kiss all the hurtin of this world away
Hold me so close that I feel your heartbeat
And don’t ever wander away

Mornings and evenings all were the same
And there was no music till I heard your name
But I knew when I saw you smile
Now I can rest for awhile

So lay down beside me
Love me and hide me
Kiss all the hurtin of this world away
Hold me so close that I feel your heartbeat
And don’t ever wander away

And don’t ever wander away…….
