Since I Don't Have You Lyrics

I don't have plans and schemes
And I don't have hopes and dreams
I don't have anything
Since I don't have you

I don't have fond desires
And I don't have happy hours
I don't have anything
Since I don't have you

I don't have happiness, and I guess
I never will again
When you walked out on me
In walked old misery
And he's been here since then

I don't have love to share
And I don't have one who cares
I don't have anything
Since I don't have

You

I Only Have Eyes for You

 

Music written by: Harry Warren
Lyrics written by: Al Dubin
Comments: From the movie musical Dames

I Only Have Eyes for You Lyrics

My love must be a kind of blind love
I can't see anyone but you

Are the stars out tonight
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
I only have eyes for you, dear

The moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
I only have eyes for you

I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue

You are here
And so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you

Thank You Pretty Baby - Brook Benton

Thank You Pretty Baby

 

Written by: Clyde Otis, Brook Benton

Thank You Pretty Baby Lyrics

I want to thank you, pretty baby
For givin' your love to me
I want to thank you, pretty baby
For givin' your love to me
My heart was locked up
Till you came and set it free

I'm gonna love you, pretty baby
Love you till the end of time
And I'm gonna love you
Love you till the end of time
I wanna thank your folks
For making you so divine

Thank you for your loving ways
O-o thank you 'cause you've been so kind
I'm gonna take my time and just thank you, honey
Because you're mine, all mine, all mine

I'm gonna kiss you in the morning
Kiss you in the evening, too
And I'm gonna kiss you in the morning
Kiss you in the evening, too
I'm gonna spend my life
Loving no one but you

Thank You Pretty Baby Singers

So Close - Brook Benton

So Close

 

Written by:

So Close Lyrics

So close as we dance across the floor
So close to the one that I adore
So close in your arms yet so far from your heart

So close to the lips I long to kiss
So close tell me why do you resist?
So close in your arms yet so far from your heart

We're so close to the real sensation
But so far it's only been conversation
Now if you love me let it show
But I I've gotta know I just got to know
Because I'm

Too close to the chance I'd love to take
Too close to the vows I'd love to make
Too close in your arms to be so far from your heart
So close

Endlessly - Brook Benton

Endlessly

 

Written by: Clyde Otis, Brook Benton

Endlessly Lyrics

Higher than the highest mountain
And deeper than the deepest sea

That's how I will love you
Oh, darling, endlessly

Softer than the gentle breezes
And stronger than the wild oak tree

Oh, my love, you are my heaven
You are my kingdom, you are my crown
Oh, my love, you're all that I prayed for
You were made for these arms to surround

Faithful as a morning sunrise
And sacred as a love can be

Take a Message to Mary - Everly Brother

Take a Message to Mary

 

Written by: Boudleaux Bryant, Felice Bryant

Take a Message to Mary Lyrics

These are the words of a frontier lad
Who lost his love when he turned bad

Take a message to Mary but don't tell her where I am
Take a message to Mary but don't say I'm in a jam
You can tell her I had to see the world
Or tell her that my ship set sail
You can say she'd better not wait for me
But don't tell her I'm in jail
Oh, don't tell her I'm in jail

Take a message to Mary but don't tell her what I've done
Please don't mention the stagecoach
And the shot from a careless gun
You can tell her I had to change my plans
And cancel out the wedding day
But please don't mention my lonely cell
Where I'm gonna pine away
Until my dying day

Take a message to Mary but don't tell her all you know
My heart's achin' for Mary
Lord knows I miss her so
Just tell her I went to Timbuktu
Tell her I'm searchin' for gold
You can say she'd better find someone new
To cherish and to hold
Oh, Lord, this cell is cold

Mary, Mary
Oh, Lord this cell is cold

Who Cares - Don Gibson

Who Cares

 

Written by: Don Gibson

Who Cares Lyrics

I walked down this ol' lonely street
And no one seems to wanna speak
Oh Who Cares
Yes who cares for me?

All the world seems cold
Everything is grey
Nothing seems the same, since you went away
Who cares, yeswho cares for me

Surely happiness can be found
Surely there's someone for me
Must I go through life with this hopeless love
Oh why can't I be set free?

All I want is you
All I know is you
But somehow our love just can't be
Oh Who Cares
Yes who cares for me?

Don't Tell Me Your Troubles - Don Gibson

Don't Tell Me Your Troubles

 

Written by: Don Gibson

Don't Tell Me Your Troubles Lyrics

Don't tell me your troubles
I got troubles of my own
Don't tell me your troubles
Just leave me alone

Leave me alone
Go on home
Tell it to a friend
I got troubles of my own

You say your sweet love's left you
What you think about me?
I got them same old heartaches
The same old miseries

Leave me alone
Go on home
Tell it to a friend
I got troubles of my own

It happens to the best of us
That's what they always say
So take it boy like a man
Don't stand in my way

You tell me that she's not good
She's mean as she can be
It's written all over your lonesome face
Any heartbreak fool can see

Leave me alone
Go on home
Tell it to a friend
I got troubles of my own
Trouble of my own

Well, it happens to the best of us
That's what they always say
So take it boy like a man
Don't stand in my way

You tell me that she's not good
She's mean as she can be
It's written all over your lonesome face
Any heartbreak fool can see

Leave me alone
Go on home
Tell it to a friend
I got troubles of my own
Trouble of my own

Enchanted - Platters

Enchanted

 

Written by: Buck Ram

Enchanted Lyrics

Living is a dream when you make it seem enchanted
Lovers take for granted all the world's aglow they ought to know
When you touch a star then you really are enchanted
Find a seed and plant it, love will make it grow

It's really grand when you stand hand in hand with your lover
And thrill to the wonders of night
And days, too, will amaze you and soon you'll discover
Your dreams run to dreams in continuous flight

Love is ecstasy
It's divine to be enchanted
When your dreams are slanted
Through a lover's eyes

I Got Stripes - Johnny Cash

I Got Stripes

 

Written by: Johnny Cash, Charlie Williams
Originally written by: Leadbelly
Adapted from: On a Monday written by Leadbelly

I Got Stripes Lyrics

On a Monday, I was arrested
On a Tuesday, they locked me in the jail (oh boy)
On a Wednesday, my trial was attested
On a Thursday, they said guilty and the Judge's gavel fell

I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders
I got chains, chains around my feet
I got stripes, stripes around my shoulders
And them chains them chains they're about to drag me down

On a Monday, got my striped britches
On a Tuesday, got my ball and chain
On a Wednesday, I'm workin' diggin' ditches
On a Thursday, Lord I'd begged them not to knock me down again


On a Monday, my momma come to see me
On a Tuesday, they caught me with a file
On a Wednesday, I'm down in solitary
On a Thursday, Lord I start on bread and water for a while

Luther Plays the Boogie - Johnny Cash

Luther Plays the Boogie

 

Written by:

Luther Plays the Boogie Lyrics

We were just a plain ol' hillbilly band
With a plain ol' country style
We never played the kind of songs
That'd drive anybody wild
Played a railroad song with a stomping beat
We played a blues song kinda slow and sweet
But the thing that knocked them off of their feet was
Ooh-wee

When Luther played the boogie-woogie
Luther played the boogie-woogie
Luther played the boogie-woogie
Luther played the boogie-woogie
Luther played the boogie woogie
Luther played the boogie-woogie
Luther played the boogie-woogie
Luther played the boogie
In the strangest kind of way
Play it strange!

Well, we did our best to entertain
Everywhere we'd go
We'd nearly wear our fingers off
To give the folks a show
Played jumping jive to make them get in the groove
We played sad songs, real slow and smooth
But the only thing that'd make them move was
Ooh-wee

Now, didn't Luther play the boogie strange?

Don't Take Your Guns to Town - Johnny Cash

Don't Take Your Guns to Town

 

Written by: Johnny Cash

Don't Take Your Guns to Town Lyrics

A young cow boy named Billy Joe grew restless on the farm
A boy filled with wanderlust who really meant no harm
He changed his clothes and shined his boots
And combed his dark hair down

And his mother cried as he walked out
Don't take your guns to town son
Leave your guns at home, Bill
Don't take your guns to town

He laughed, and kissed his mom, and said
"your Billy Joe is a man"
I can shoot as quick, and straight as anybody can
But I wouldn't shoot without a cause; I'd gun nobody down"

But she cried again as he rode away
Don't take your guns to town son
Leave your guns at home Bill
Don't take your guns to town

He sang a song as on he rode his guns hung at his hips
He rode into a cattle town, a smile upon his lips
He stopped, and walked into a bar and laid his money down
But his mother's words echoed again

Don't take your guns to town son
Leave your guns at home Bill
Don't take your guns to town

He drank his first strong liquor then to calm his shaking hand
And tried to tell himself at last he had become a man
A dusty cowpoke at his side began to laugh him down
And he heard again his mothers words

Don't take your guns to town son
Leave your guns at home Bill
Don't take your guns to town

Filled with rage then, Billy Joe reached for his gun to draw
But the stranger drew his gun and fired before he even saw
As Billy Joe fell to the floor, the crowd all gathered 'round
And wondered at his final words

Don't take your guns to town son
Leave your guns at home Bill
Don't take your guns to town

My Wish Came True - Elvis Presley

My Wish Came True

 

Written by: Ivory Joe Hunter

My Wish Came True Lyrics

My wish came true
When I met you
I've searched and searched
My whole life through

There's just one thing
Dear, before we start
Don't say you care
Then break my heart

When you speak of love
Please be sincere
For if you play with love
It can bring tears, my dear

My wish came true
To my surprise
When you stood there
Before my eyes

And when my heart
Started beating fast
Was then I knew
I found true love at last

Partners - Jim Reeves

Partners

 

Written by: Danny Dill

Partners Lyrics

Two partners went in search of gold
As friendly as could be
One was young and one was old
And the gay young fool was me

Since neighter one could write his name
We swore upon our souls
To share the wealth and then shook hands
The hands that dug for gold. (oh, partners)

The summer days were gone at last
And winter nights grew cold
The snow had trapped us in the pass
When we finally found the gold

We took our fortune to the shack
To wait the winter through
But the food ran low so I killed my friend
What else was there to do? (oh, partners)

I threw his body just outside
Into the bitter cold
Somehow I had to stay alive
I now had all the gold

But the howling wind just seemed to say
You have killed a man
And you'll never get to spend the gold
With the blood upon your hands. (oh, partners)

The cabin's covered now with snow
And shelves of food are bare
Satan's waitin' for me now
And I'm too cold to care

Is that the devil at the door
Coming for my soul
Or is it just the old man
A looking for his gold? (oh, partners)

Home - Jim Reeves

Home

 

Written by: Roger Miller

Home Lyrics

Well, I've been a traveler most of my life
Never took a home, never took a wife
Ran away young and decided to roam
Wanna see my mama and my daddy back home

Home, where the river runs cold
The water tastes good, the winters ain't cold
Home, where the trees grow tall
The home fires burn, the whippoorwills call

I remember stories that my daddy used to tell
My eyes would get big, and his chest would swell
I could sit for hours and listen with glee
As he'd tell of how he lived when he's a boy like me


Well, mama dear, mama do you still love your boy
After all my roamin' can I still bring you joy
Mom sent a letter, got it not long ago
She said "come home, I'm missin' you so

Well I ain't never I ain't never
Seen nobody like you no no no
Never have I ever seen nobody like you

You call me up and say you meet me at nine
I have to hurry hurry but I'm there on time

The landlord says she ain't a here no more

You tell me sweet things that you don't mean
You've got me a livin' in a haunted dream
You make me do things I don't wanna do

That's What Its Like to Be - Ray Price

That's What It's Like to Be Lonesome

 

Written by: Bill Anderson

That's What Its Like to Be Lyrics

The streets are dark and empty
When you walk them all alone
You think about your love affair
And wonder what went wrong
You go to bed each night and pray
You'll never see the dawn
Afraid of each tomorrow
With its heartless cold unknown

And that's what it's like to be lonesome
A heart a broken love has taught to cry
And that's what it's like to be lonesome
I know cause I'm a mighty lonesome guy

You search to find a tavern
Where the music's playing loud
You try to lose your heartaches
In the laughter of the crowd
But the happy couples make you think
Of things that could have been
And you have to fight the teardrops
Till you're by yourself again

That's What Its Like to Be Singers
