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

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.

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 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

Let It Be Christmas Lyrics

Alan Jackson

Let it be Christmas everywhere
In the hearts of all people both near and afar
Christmas everywhere
Feel the love of the season wherever you are
On the small country roads lined with green mistletoe
Big city streets where a thousand lights glow

Let it be Christmas everywhere
Let heavenly music fill the air
Let every heart sing let every bell ring
The story of hope and joy and peace
And let it be Christmas everywhere
Let heavenly music fill the air
Let anger and fear and hate disappear
Let there be love that lasts through the year
And let it be Christmas
Christmas everywhere

Let it be Christmas everywhere
With the gold and the silver, the green and the red
Christmas everywhere
In the smiles of all children asleep in their beds
In the eyes of young babies their first fallen snow
Elderlys’ memories that never grow old

Let it be Christmas everywhere
Let heavenly music fill the air
Let every heart sing let every bell ring
The story of hope and joy and peace
And let it be Christmas everywhere
Let heavenly music fill the air
Let anger and fear and hate disappear
Let there be love that lasts through the year
And let it be Christmas
Christmas everywhere

Let it be Christmas everywhere
In the songs that we sing and the gifts that we bring
Christmas everywhere
In what this day means and what we believe
From the sandy white beaches where blue water rolls
Snow covered mountains and valleys below

Let it be Christmas everywhere
Let heavenly music fill the air
Let every heart sing let every bell ring
The story of hope and joy and peace
And let it be Christmas everywhere
Let heavenly music fill the air
Let anger and fear and hate disappear
Let there be love that lasts through the year
And let it be Christmas
Christmas everywhere
Christmas everywhere
Christmas everywhere

Good Hearted Woman Lyrics

A long time forgotten are dreams that just fell by the way
The good life he promised ain’t what she’s living today
But she never complains of the bad times or bad things he’s done, Lord
She just talks about the good times they’ve had and all the good times to come

She’s a good-hearted woman in love with a good-timin’ man
She loves him in spite of his ways that she don’t understand
Through teardrops and laughter, they’ll pass through this world hand-in-hand,
A good-hearted woman loving her good timing man

He like the night life, the bright lights and good-timin’ friends
When the party’s all over she’ll welcome him back home again
Lord knows she don’t understand him, but she does the best that she can
‘Cause she’s a good-hearted woman; she loves her good timin’ man

She’s a good-hearted woman in love with a good-timin’ man
She loves him in spite of his ways that she don’t understand
Through teardrops and laughter, they’ll pass through this world hand-in-hand,
A good-hearted woman loving her good timing man

Who’s Gonna Fill Their Shoes Lyrics

You know this old world is full of singers
But just a few are chosen
To tear your heart out when they sing
Imagine life without them
All your, radio heroes
Like the outlaw that walks through Jesse’s dream

No, there will never be another
Red-headed stranger
A Man in Black and Folsom Prison Blues
The Okie from Muskogee
Or Hello Darling
Lord I wonder, who’s gonna fill their shoes

Who’s gonna fill their shoes
Who’s gonna stand that tall
Who’s gonna play the Opry
And the Wabash Cannonball
Who’s gonna give their heart and soul
To get to me and you
Lord I wonder, who’s gonna fill their shoes

God bless the boys from Memphis
Blue Suede Shoes and Elvis
Much too soon he left this world in tears
They tore up the Fifties
Old Jerry Lee and Charlie
And old Go Cat Go still echoes through the years

You know the heart of country music
Still beats in Luke the Drifter
You can tell when hew sings I Saw the Light
Old Marty, Hank and Lefty
Why I can feel them right here with me
On this Silver Eagle rolling through the night

Who’s gonna fill their shoes
Who’s gonna stand that tall
Who’s gonna play the Opry
And the Wabash Cannonball
Who’s gonna give their heart and soul
To get to me and you
Lord I wonder, who’s gonna fill their shoes

Yes I wonder, who’s gonna fill their shoes?

Branded Man Lyrics

Merle Haggard

I’d like to hold my head up and be proud of who I am,
But they won’t let my secret go untold.
I paid the debt I owed them, but they’re still not satisfied,
Now I’m a branded man out in the cold,

When they let me out of prison, I held my head up high,
Determined I would rise above the shame.
But no matter where I travel, the black mark follows me,
I’m branded with a number on my name.
If I live to be a hundred, guess I’ll never clear my name,
‘Cause everybody knows I’ve been in jail.

No matter where I’m living,
I’ve got to tell them where I’ve been,
Or they’ll send me back to prison if I fail.

Now I’m a branded man out in the cold.

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

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
