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

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
