If I Needed You Lyrics

Don Williams & Emmylou Harris

(Both)
If I needed you, would you come to me?
Would you come to me for to ease my pain?
If you needed me, I would come to you.
I would swim the sea for to ease your pain.

(Emmylou)
Well the night’s forlorn and the morning’s born
And the morning’s born with the lights of love.
And you’ll miss sunrise if you close your eyes,
And that would break my heart in two.

(Both)
If I needed you, would you come to me?
Would you come to me for to ease my pain?
If you needed me, I would come to you.
I would swim the sea for to ease your pain.

(Don)
Baby’s with me now since I showed her how,
To lay her lily hand in mine.
Who could ill agree, she’s a sight to see:
A treasure for the poor to find.

(Both)
If I needed you, would you come to me?
Would you come to me for to ease my pain?
If you needed me, I would come to you.
I would swim the sea for to ease your pain.

Amanda Lyrics

Song by Don Williams

I’ve held it all inward
Lord knows I’ve tried
It’s an awful awakenin’
In a country boy’s life
When you look in the mirror
In total surprise
At the hair on your shoulders
And the age in your eyes.

Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentle man’s wife
Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentle man’s wife.

Well the measure of people
Don’t understand
The pleasures of life
In a hillbilly band
I got my first guitar
When I was fourteen
Now I’m crowding thirty
And still wearin’ jeans.

Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentle man’s wife
Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentle man’s wife.

I Recall a Gypsy Woman Lyrics

Song by Don Williams

Silver coins that jingle jangle
Fancy shoes the dancing time
All the secrets of her dark eyes
They did seem a gypsy rhyme
Yellow clover in tangled blossoms
In a meadow silky green
Where she held me to her bosom
Just a boy of 17

I recall a gypsy woman
Silver spangles in her eyes
Ivory skin against the moonlight
And the taste of life’s sweet wine

Soft breezes blow from fragrant meadows
And stir the darkness in my mind
Oh, gentle woman you sleep beside me
Little know who haunts my mind
Gypsy lady, I hear your laughter
And it dances in my head
While my tender wife and babies
Slumber softly in their beds

I recall a gypsy woman
Silver spangles in her eyes
Ivory skin against the moonlight
And the taste of life’s sweet wine

Alright!

It Must Be Love Lyrics

Song by Don Williams

First, I get cold, then hot
Think I’m on fire, but I’m not
Oh, what a pain I’ve got, it must be love
There’s nothing I can do, all that I want is you
Look what I’m going through, it must be love

It must be love, it must be love
I fall like a sparrow, fly like a dove
You must be the dream I’ve been dreaming of
Oh, what a feeling, it must be love

Something is wrong, alright, I think of you all night
Can’t sleep ’til morning light, it must be love
Seeing you in my dreams, holding you close to me
Oh, what else can it be? It must be love

It must be love, it must be love
I fall like a sparrow, fly like a dove
You must be the dream I’ve been dreaming of
Oh, what a feeling, it must be love

It must be love, it must be love
I fall like a sparrow, fly like a dove
You must be the dream I’ve been dreaming of
Oh, what a feeling, it must be love

It must be love, it must be love
I fall like a sparrow, fly like a dove
You must be the dream I’ve been dreaming of
Oh, what a feeling, it must be love

Good Ole Boys Like Me Lyrics

Song by Don Williams

When I was a kid Uncle Remus he put me to bed
With a picture of Stonewall Jackson above my head
Then daddy came in to kiss his little man

With gin on his breath and a Bible in his hand
He talked about honor and things I should know
Then he staggered a little as he went out the door

I can still hear the soft southern winds in the live oak trees
And those Williams boys they still mean a lot to me Hank and Tennessee
I guess we’re all gonna be what we’re gonna be
So what do you do with good ole boys like me

Nothing makes a sound in the night like the wind does
But you ain’t afraid if you’re washed in the blood like I was
The smell of Cape Jasmine through the window screen
John are and the wolfman kept me company

By the light of the radio by my bed with Thomas Wolfe whispering in my head
I can still hear the soft southern winds…
When I was in school I ran with a kid down the street
And I watched him burn himself up on Bourbon and speed

But I was smarter than most and I could choose
Learned to talk like the man on the six o’clock news
When I was eighteen Lord I hit the road but it really dodn’t matter how far I go
I can still hear the soft southern winds…
Yeah what do you do with good ole boys like me
