You Just Haven't Done It Yet lyrics

You Just Haven't Done It Yet lyrics song presented by The Statler Brothers : I knew she was the one the second I feel in love Like a pocket on a shirt she fit me like a glove There's nothing I wanted more than for her to be my wife But it scared me to think of taking on another life It was the longest night before our wedding day I wasn't having second thoughts I just had more prayers to say I sat there in the church alone asked my father man to man Can I live up to the promise when I don't know if I can Well I remember the first bike that I tried to ride I couldn't ride it no matter how hard I tried Then my dad told me the secret that I never will forget He said it's not that you can't do it you just haven't I done it yet [ guitar ] After five good years of marriage my promise is still good Now she wants to be a mother and I'm faced with fatherhood So I prayed to my father I need some help once again Do you think I'll do alright dad I don't...

When You And I Were Young Maggie lyrics

When You And I Were Young Maggie lyrics song presented by The Statler Brothers : I wander today to the hill Maggie to watch the scene below The creek and the creeking old mill Maggie "as we used to" long long ago The green grove is gone from the hill Maggie where first the daisies sprung The creeking old mill is still Maggie since you and I were young Oh they say that I'm feeble with age Maggie my steps are much slower than then My face is a well written page Maggie and time all alone was the pen They say we have outlived our time Maggie as they hear our song that we sung But to me you're as fair as you were Maggie when you and I were young When you and I were young

When I Stop Dreaming lyrics

When I Stop Dreaming lyrics song presented by The Statler Brothers : When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you The worst that I've ever been hurt in my life the first time I ever have wanted to die Was the night when you told me you loved someone else And asked me if I could forget When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you You may teach the flowers to bloom in the snow You may take a pebble and teach it to grow You may teach all the raindrops to return to the clouds But you can't teach my heart to forget When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you When I stop dreaming that's when I'll stop loving you

Whatever Happened To Randolph Scott lyrics

Whatever Happened To Randolph Scott lyrics song presented by The Statler Brothers : Everybody knows when you go to the show you can't take the kids along.

Tex Ritter's gone, and Disney's dead, and the screen is filled with s**. [Chorus:] Whatever happened to Randolph Scott ridin' the trail alone? Whatever happened to Gene and Tex, and Roy, and Rex, the Durango Kid? Oh, Whatever happened to Randolph Scott, his horse plain as could be? Whatever happened to Randolph Scott has happened to the best of me. [Guitar] Everybody's tryin' to make a comment about our doubts and fears. True Grit's the only movie I've really understood in years. You gotta take your analyst along to see if it's fit to see. Whatever happened to Randolph Scott has happened to the industry.

What We Love To Do lyrics

What We Love To Do lyrics song presented by The Statler Brothers : Going from town to town and knocking door to door Writin' songs on napkins to keep from gettin' bored Starving for some work and a little bite to eat Countin' last night's money and wonderin' where we'd sleep Wonderin' what she's doin' since the last time that I called Cause she's alone in Virginia and I'm in Arkansas Lord knows I love my music and she knows I love her too She's a better man than I am to let me do the things I do We like to pick and sing and it's not a nine to five It may not be a real job but it keeps our dream alive We've sung for more than many and sometimes quite a few Either way it doesn't matter it's what we love to do [ fiddle ] Each night is somethin' different cause we're learning more each day We know now how the cards are dealt and we know now how to play After weeks the days seem longer but at home not long at all The s...

What Do I Care lyrics

What Do I Care lyrics song presented by The Statler Brothers : When I'm all through if I haven't been what they think I should be If the total isn't high enough when they figure me When I grow old if there's no gray from worry in my hair What do I care what do I care What do I care just as long as you were mine a little while When the road was long and weary you gave me a few good miles What do I care if I miss a goal because I make a slip I'll still be satisfied because I tasted your sweet lips What do I care if I never have much money And sometimes my table looks a little bare Anything that I may miss is made up for each time we kiss You were mine for a little while so what do I care [ guitar ] What do I care if I never have much money... You were mine for a little while so what do I care

We Got Paid By Cash lyrics

We Got Paid By Cash lyrics song presented by The Statler Brothers : It started March of sixty-four Many years ago We were hired by Johnny Cash To open up his show Four boys, a worn out Cadillac With a road map on the dash For the next eight and one half years We got paid by Cash He took us down to Nashville To Columbia studio Not knowing where we came from They told us where to go But Johnny said, "I like 'em Don't you give them no trash" You see, we were Johnny's little boys And we got paid by Cash We were there when June became Johnny's lovin' bride And we sang to him that mornin' Our buddy Luther died And we were there when the son was born That filled them both with pride And we were there when John remembered God was on his side We watched him on the concert stage We watched him write his songs And saw the things we had to do And the things that could go wrong And if we had to start again We'd do it in a flash 'Cause we learned more than ...

We lyrics

We lyrics song presented by The Statler Brothers : We walked the warm streets of Florida with sand in our pockets lots of times Worked the cold streets of New York with four guitars and a tin cup just for dimes We spent one night in Winnipeg a summer in Mississippi sun Had some trouble once in Fargo some bad times in Enceno but we had fun We made the papers once in Phoenix when we stopped and tried to break up a fight We hit keno in Reno and lost it all in Vegas the very next night We hopped a train in Chicago and skinny dipped in San Francisco bay We checked it all in the big hotels then used the fire escape to get away And we wouldn't trade it all for the world and all of it's gold It's the past that makes the future worth livin' Mother Luck's been good to us and we will praise her in our songs For the good times and the good things she has given We flew into Kansas City early April 24th without a plane We got stranded in a snow storm with some girls from Salt La...

Under It All lyrics

Under It All lyrics song presented by The Statler Brothers : All the powder and paint that hides her sweet face isn't her as she really should be She's distant and cold but under it all she's the same girl that used to love me All the booze drinking men she calles her friends Aren't the friends she used to bring home She's not what she's been called and under it all She's the same girl that I've always known She may dance too close too long and do some things that seem wrong Or seem hard and bad and that's what's so sad cause she's soft down under it all All the things that she says and the way she may dress Doesn't mean she's really gone bad She's not really at fault and under it all she's really quite homesick and sad She's not really at fault and under it all she's really quite homesick and sad

Too Much On My Heart lyrics

Too Much On My Heart lyrics song presented by The Statler Brothers : You're having second thoughts I can tell by the way you look at me I can tell by what I see that you no longer believe in me I'm havin' bad dreams can't seem to get back to where we used to be Sometimes it feels like we're worlds apart And I've got too much on my heart I've got too much on my heart and I don't like to feel the pain And I don't know where to start to make you love me once again I don't have time to make you understand Lord this thing is gettin' out of hand Pain shoots through me like a dart and I've got too much on my heart Don't be so cold to me I know you've changed but it's still hard for me It's too late I realize I can see it in your distant eyes You needed all of me but I can't be there like I used to be And Lord it's tearin' me apart 'Cause I got too much on my heart I've got too much on my heart and I don't...
