I Could Never Be Ashamed Of You lyrics - Glen campbell
Everybody says you let me down I should be ashamed to take you round
Makes no difference what you used to do darling I could never be ashamed of you
Maybe you were reckless yesterday but together we can find a brighter way
In my heart I know that you'll come true darling I could never be ashamed of you
(Darling I could never be ashamed of you)
All the happiness I've ever known came the day you said you'd be my own
And it matters not what we go through darling I could never be ashamed of you
Maybe you were cheated in the past and perhaps old memories will always last
But in my heart I know that you'll come true darling I could never be ashamed of you
Makes no difference what you used to do darling I could never be ashamed of you
Maybe you were reckless yesterday but together we can find a brighter way
In my heart I know that you'll come true darling I could never be ashamed of you
(Darling I could never be ashamed of you)
All the happiness I've ever known came the day you said you'd be my own
And it matters not what we go through darling I could never be ashamed of you
Maybe you were cheated in the past and perhaps old memories will always last
But in my heart I know that you'll come true darling I could never be ashamed of you
Your Cheatin' Heart lyrics - Glen campbell
(Your cheatin' heart will make you weep)
Your cheatin' heart will make you weep you'll cry and cry you'll try to sleep
But sleep won't come the whole night through your cheatin' heart will tell on you
When tears come down like falling rain you'll toss around and call my name
And you'll walk the floor the way I do your cheatin' heart will tell on you
Your cheatin' heart will pine someday and you'll crave the love you threw away
The time will come when you'll be blue your cheatin' heart will tell on you
When tears come down...
Your cheatin' heart will make you weep you'll cry and cry you'll try to sleep
But sleep won't come the whole night through your cheatin' heart will tell on you
When tears come down like falling rain you'll toss around and call my name
And you'll walk the floor the way I do your cheatin' heart will tell on you
Your cheatin' heart will pine someday and you'll crave the love you threw away
The time will come when you'll be blue your cheatin' heart will tell on you
When tears come down...
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry lyrics - Glen campbell
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill he sounds too blue to fly
That midnight train is whining low I'm so lonesome I could cry
Did you ever see a night so long when time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind a cloud to hide its face and cry
Did you ever see a robin weep when leaves began to die
It means he's lost the will to live I'm so lonesome I could cry
The silence of a falling star lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder where you are I'm so lonesome I could cry
That midnight train is whining low I'm so lonesome I could cry
Did you ever see a night so long when time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind a cloud to hide its face and cry
Did you ever see a robin weep when leaves began to die
It means he's lost the will to live I'm so lonesome I could cry
The silence of a falling star lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder where you are I'm so lonesome I could cry
Half As Much lyrics - Glen Campbell
(If you only loved me half as much as I love you)
If you loved me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
And you're nice to me when there's no one else around
You only build me up to let me down
If you missed me half as much as I miss you
You wouldn't stay away half as much as you do
And I know that I could never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you
(If you loved me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do)
Oh I know that I could never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you
If you loved me half as much as I love you
If you loved me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
And you're nice to me when there's no one else around
You only build me up to let me down
If you missed me half as much as I miss you
You wouldn't stay away half as much as you do
And I know that I could never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you
(If you loved me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do)
Oh I know that I could never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you
If you loved me half as much as I love you
Wedding Bells lyrics - Glen Campbell
I have the invitation that you sent me you wanted me to see you change your name
I couldn't stand to see you wed another but dear I hope you're happy just the same
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel that should be ringing now for you and me
Down the aisle with someone else you're walking
Those wedding bells will never ring for me
Now I'd planned a little cottage in the valley and I even bought a little band of gold
I thought someday I'd place it on your finger
But now my future looks so dark and cold
Wedding bells are ringing...
I couldn't stand to see you wed another but dear I hope you're happy just the same
Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel that should be ringing now for you and me
Down the aisle with someone else you're walking
Those wedding bells will never ring for me
Now I'd planned a little cottage in the valley and I even bought a little band of gold
I thought someday I'd place it on your finger
But now my future looks so dark and cold
Wedding bells are ringing...
You Win Again lyrics - Glen Campbell
(What can I do you win again)
The news is out all over town that you've been seen out runnin' round
Now I know that I should leave but then I just can't go you win again
This heart of mine could never see what everybody knew but me
Lord just trusting you was my great sin what can I do you win again
(What can I do you win again)
I'm so sorry for your victim now for soon his head like mine will bow
Oh he'll give his heart but all in vain and someday say you win again
You have no heart you have no shame you take true love and give the blame
But I guess that I should not complain I love you still you won again
The news is out all over town that you've been seen out runnin' round
Now I know that I should leave but then I just can't go you win again
This heart of mine could never see what everybody knew but me
Lord just trusting you was my great sin what can I do you win again
(What can I do you win again)
I'm so sorry for your victim now for soon his head like mine will bow
Oh he'll give his heart but all in vain and someday say you win again
You have no heart you have no shame you take true love and give the blame
But I guess that I should not complain I love you still you won again
Mansion On The Hill lyrics - Glen campbell
Tonight down here in the valley I'm lonesome and oh how I feel
As I sit here alone in my cabin I can see your mansion on the hill
Do you recall when we parted the story to me you revealed
Oh you said you could live without love dear in your loveless mansion on the hill
I've waited all through the years love just to give you a heart true and real
And I know you're alone with your pride dear in your loveless mansion on the hill
As I sit here alone in my cabin I can see your mansion on the hill
Do you recall when we parted the story to me you revealed
Oh you said you could live without love dear in your loveless mansion on the hill
I've waited all through the years love just to give you a heart true and real
And I know you're alone with your pride dear in your loveless mansion on the hill
Take These Chains From My Heart lyrics - Glen Campbell
Take these chains from my heart and set me free
You've grown cold and no longer care for me
All my faith in you is gone but the heartaches linger on
Take these chains from my heart and set me free
Take these tears from my eyes and let me see
Just a spark of the love that used to be
If you love somebody new let me find a new love too
Take these chains from my heart and set me free
Give my heart just a word of sympathy be as fair to my heart as you can be
Then if you no longer care for the love that's beating there
Take these chains from my heart and set me free
You've grown cold and no longer care for me
All my faith in you is gone but the heartaches linger on
Take these chains from my heart and set me free
Take these tears from my eyes and let me see
Just a spark of the love that used to be
If you love somebody new let me find a new love too
Take these chains from my heart and set me free
Give my heart just a word of sympathy be as fair to my heart as you can be
Then if you no longer care for the love that's beating there
Take these chains from my heart and set me free
I Can't Help It (If I'm Still In Love With You) lyrics - Glen campbell
(I can't help it if I'm still in love with you)
Today I passed you on the street and my heart fell at your feet
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
Somebody else stood by your side and he looked so satisfied
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
A picture from the past came slowly stealing
As I brushed your arm and walked so close to you
Then suddenly I got that old time feeling I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
(I can't help it if I'm still in love with you)
It's hard to know another's lips will kiss you and hold you just the way I used to do
And heaven only knows how much I miss you I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
Today I passed you on the street and my heart fell at your feet
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
Somebody else stood by your side and he looked so satisfied
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
A picture from the past came slowly stealing
As I brushed your arm and walked so close to you
Then suddenly I got that old time feeling I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
(I can't help it if I'm still in love with you)
It's hard to know another's lips will kiss you and hold you just the way I used to do
And heaven only knows how much I miss you I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
I Knew Jesus (Before He Was A Star) lyrics - Glen Campbell
Well funny it seems as how everyone knows him now
Suddenly they have found someone who's been around
Back to the fold they come seeking his wisdom from a far
I knew Jesus before he was a superstar
Well you know I'm a believer in all that he's ever been
Stories I've read of him things that were said of him
Songs that they glorify I used to play on my guitar yes I did
I knew Jesus before he was a superstar
I've known his goodness and mercy for all my days
I've seen his blessings around me in every way
In times of trouble when I had no hope in view
Who brought the sunlight the one light that I knew
Oh yes I knew he was always there answering every prayer
Fame will not change him much he won't be out of touch
Great as he is today big people stay the way they are yes they do
I knew Jesus before he was a superstar
I've known his goodness...
I knew Jesus before he was a superstar
I knew Jesus before he was a superstar
Suddenly they have found someone who's been around
Back to the fold they come seeking his wisdom from a far
I knew Jesus before he was a superstar
Well you know I'm a believer in all that he's ever been
Stories I've read of him things that were said of him
Songs that they glorify I used to play on my guitar yes I did
I knew Jesus before he was a superstar
I've known his goodness and mercy for all my days
I've seen his blessings around me in every way
In times of trouble when I had no hope in view
Who brought the sunlight the one light that I knew
Oh yes I knew he was always there answering every prayer
Fame will not change him much he won't be out of touch
Great as he is today big people stay the way they are yes they do
I knew Jesus before he was a superstar
I've known his goodness...
I knew Jesus before he was a superstar
I knew Jesus before he was a superstar
I Take It On Home lyrics - Glen campbell
Now sometimes at the end of the day
Before I head home I make a stop along the way
Have a couple of drinks and wait for the five o'clock rush to go by
And almost always there's a lady oh and it's so hard when she starts coming on
But I back it on up turn it around and take it on home
And sometimes I've gotta go out of town and I'll be gone for a couple of days
And this buddy of mine let me tell you he's a hound in the first degree
And almost always there's the ladies
Lord and it ain't easy boys when you're out and all alone
But I back it on up turn it around and take it on home
I take it on home to my woman who sticks by me
Cause I believe she'd do the same if she was me
And I would not know where to turn to Lord if she was gone no I wouldn't
And when I ain't a workin' no I don't hang out I take it on home
I back it on up turn it around and take it on home
Before I head home I make a stop along the way
Have a couple of drinks and wait for the five o'clock rush to go by
And almost always there's a lady oh and it's so hard when she starts coming on
But I back it on up turn it around and take it on home
And sometimes I've gotta go out of town and I'll be gone for a couple of days
And this buddy of mine let me tell you he's a hound in the first degree
And almost always there's the ladies
Lord and it ain't easy boys when you're out and all alone
But I back it on up turn it around and take it on home
I take it on home to my woman who sticks by me
Cause I believe she'd do the same if she was me
And I would not know where to turn to Lord if she was gone no I wouldn't
And when I ain't a workin' no I don't hang out I take it on home
I back it on up turn it around and take it on home
Sold American lyrics - Glen Campbell
Faded jaded fallen cowboy star
Pawn shops itching for your old guitar
Where you've gone, it ain't nobody knows
The sequins have fallen from your clothes
Once you heard the Opry crowd applaud
Now you're hanging out at 4th and Broad
On the rain wet sidewalk, remembering the time
When coffee with a friend was still a dime
[Chorus:]
Everything's been sold American
The early times are finished and the want ads are all read
Everyone's been sold American
Been dreaming dreams in a rollaway bed
Writing down your memoirs on some window in the frost
Roulette eyes reflecting another morning lost
Hauled in by the metro for killing time and pain
With a singing brakeman screaming through your veins
You told me you were born so much higher than life
I saw the faded pictures of your children and your wife
Now they're fumbling through your wallet & they're trying to find your name
It's almost like they raised the price of fame
[Chorus 2x]
Pawn shops itching for your old guitar
Where you've gone, it ain't nobody knows
The sequins have fallen from your clothes
Once you heard the Opry crowd applaud
Now you're hanging out at 4th and Broad
On the rain wet sidewalk, remembering the time
When coffee with a friend was still a dime
[Chorus:]
Everything's been sold American
The early times are finished and the want ads are all read
Everyone's been sold American
Been dreaming dreams in a rollaway bed
Writing down your memoirs on some window in the frost
Roulette eyes reflecting another morning lost
Hauled in by the metro for killing time and pain
With a singing brakeman screaming through your veins
You told me you were born so much higher than life
I saw the faded pictures of your children and your wife
Now they're fumbling through your wallet & they're trying to find your name
It's almost like they raised the price of fame
[Chorus 2x]
I Want To Be With You Always lyrics - Glen campbell
I lose my blues honey when I'm with you
No one else could ever do you're in my heart to stay
But when I'm gone and I'm all alone
I'll be singing this song I want to be with you always
I'd be happy dear if you could always be here and always be near forever and a day
For my love is true my love is only for you
I'll never be blue if I could be with you always if I could be with you always
No one else could ever do you're in my heart to stay
But when I'm gone and I'm all alone
I'll be singing this song I want to be with you always
I'd be happy dear if you could always be here and always be near forever and a day
For my love is true my love is only for you
I'll never be blue if I could be with you always if I could be with you always
If Not For You lyrics - Glen Campbell
If not for you babe I couldn't even find the door and I couldn't even see the floor
I'd be sad and blue if not for you
If not for you all night you'd see me wide awake Lord that surely have to break
But it would not be new if not for you
If not for you my sky would fall and rain would gather too
Without your love I'd be nowhere at all I'd be lost if not for you
If not for you winter would have no spring I couldn't hear the robin sing
I just wouldn't have a clue if not for you
[Guitar]
If not for you my sky would fall...
I'd be sad and blue if not for you
If not for you all night you'd see me wide awake Lord that surely have to break
But it would not be new if not for you
If not for you my sky would fall and rain would gather too
Without your love I'd be nowhere at all I'd be lost if not for you
If not for you winter would have no spring I couldn't hear the robin sing
I just wouldn't have a clue if not for you
[Guitar]
If not for you my sky would fall...
Give Me Back That Old Familiar Feeling lyrics - Glen Campbell
I keep waiting for a song to come and sing you back to me
I never felt so free as when I had you
Our rhythm was the best that's touched the likes of me
I was really me when I had you
Give me back that old familiar feeling let me feeling like I was someone
Give me back that song we sang in harmony just you and me singing together
My radio still plays the songs you like to hear I wish you were here oh I need you
I'll take the time and tune the station in real clear as if you were here oh I love you
Give me back that old familiar feeling...
Give me back that old familiar feeling...
Give me back that old familiar feeling...
I never felt so free as when I had you
Our rhythm was the best that's touched the likes of me
I was really me when I had you
Give me back that old familiar feeling let me feeling like I was someone
Give me back that song we sang in harmony just you and me singing together
My radio still plays the songs you like to hear I wish you were here oh I need you
I'll take the time and tune the station in real clear as if you were here oh I love you
Give me back that old familiar feeling...
Give me back that old familiar feeling...
Give me back that old familiar feeling...
Amazing Grace lyrics - Glen Campbell
Oh amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me
I once was lost oh but now I'm found I was blind Lord but now I see
Through many dangers toils and snares that we already fear
Twas grace that brought the sake the spar and grace will lead us home
When we've when we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining bright shining as the sun
Lord we found this place to sing God's praise Lord as when we first begun
(Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me
I once was lost oh but now I'm found I was blind Lord but now I see)
Amazing amazing grace how sweet the sound...
I once was lost oh but now I'm found I was blind Lord but now I see
Through many dangers toils and snares that we already fear
Twas grace that brought the sake the spar and grace will lead us home
When we've when we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining bright shining as the sun
Lord we found this place to sing God's praise Lord as when we first begun
(Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me
I once was lost oh but now I'm found I was blind Lord but now I see)
Amazing amazing grace how sweet the sound...
Someday Soon lyrics - Glen Campbell
Now there's a young girl that I know and her age is twenty-one
She comes from down in southern Colorado
I just got out of the service and I'm looking for some fun
Someday soon she'll be with me someday soon
Her parents could not like me cause I rides the rodeo
Her father thinks that I will leave her crying
But I know she would follow me right down the roughest road
Someday soon she'll be with me someday soon
And when I come to call her pa ain't got a good word to say
Guess it's cause he's just as wild in his younger days
So blow you ol' blue northern and blow me on my way
I'm driving in tonight from California
I love my damned old rodeo almost as much as I love her
Someday soon she'll be with me someday soon
Someday soon she'll be with me someday soon
She comes from down in southern Colorado
I just got out of the service and I'm looking for some fun
Someday soon she'll be with me someday soon
Her parents could not like me cause I rides the rodeo
Her father thinks that I will leave her crying
But I know she would follow me right down the roughest road
Someday soon she'll be with me someday soon
And when I come to call her pa ain't got a good word to say
Guess it's cause he's just as wild in his younger days
So blow you ol' blue northern and blow me on my way
I'm driving in tonight from California
I love my damned old rodeo almost as much as I love her
Someday soon she'll be with me someday soon
Someday soon she'll be with me someday soon
I Will Never Pass This Way Again lyrics - Glen Campbell
I will pass this way but once if there's any good that I can do
Let me do it now for I'll never pass this way again
I will see this day but once if there's any kindness I can show
Let me show it now for I'll never see this day again
Tomorrow may be too late my friend to do all the good that you planned
So reach out to those who need you and lend them a helping hand
I will know this world but once if there's any love that I can give
Let me give it now oh Lord please show me how
For I'll never know this world I'll never see this day
I'll never pass this way again
Let me do it now for I'll never pass this way again
I will see this day but once if there's any kindness I can show
Let me show it now for I'll never see this day again
Tomorrow may be too late my friend to do all the good that you planned
So reach out to those who need you and lend them a helping hand
I will know this world but once if there's any love that I can give
Let me give it now oh Lord please show me how
For I'll never know this world I'll never see this day
I'll never pass this way again
One Last Time lyrics Glen Campbell

Sweet Fantasy lyrics - Glen campbell
I had a dream and I saw you standin' and you were shinin' just like an angel
I'd like to thank you for standing by me when things were darker you held the candle
Do you remember when we took a dream and then turned it into today together
Dreamin' seems to carry me back to where I wanna be
Wrapped up in your arms and feeling better
Rivers will run mountains will rise I love you more than the stars in the skies
I'll never treat you wrong won't make you cry
Just sing you sweet love songs won't tell you lies
Wouldn't you like to go ridin' with me into tomorrow oh sweet fantasy
[Ac. Guitar]
Rivers will run mountains will rise I love you more than the stars in the skies
Cherish what you sweet remember running through the sands of time
Cherish it with all that's in you
Rivers will run mountains will rise I love you more than the stars in the skies
Rivers will run eagles will fly I love you more than the stars in the skies
Yes I love girl yes I love girl yes I love girl
I'd like to thank you for standing by me when things were darker you held the candle
Do you remember when we took a dream and then turned it into today together
Dreamin' seems to carry me back to where I wanna be
Wrapped up in your arms and feeling better
Rivers will run mountains will rise I love you more than the stars in the skies
I'll never treat you wrong won't make you cry
Just sing you sweet love songs won't tell you lies
Wouldn't you like to go ridin' with me into tomorrow oh sweet fantasy
[Ac. Guitar]
Rivers will run mountains will rise I love you more than the stars in the skies
Cherish what you sweet remember running through the sands of time
Cherish it with all that's in you
Rivers will run mountains will rise I love you more than the stars in the skies
Rivers will run eagles will fly I love you more than the stars in the skies
Yes I love girl yes I love girl yes I love girl
She Thinks I Still Care lyrics - Glen Campbell
(She thinks I still care)
Just because I asked a friend about her just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just because I rang her number by mistake today she thinks I still care
Just because I haunt the same old places
Where the mem'ry of her lingers everywhere
Just because I'm not the happy guy I used to be she thinks I still care
But if she's happy thinking I still need her then let that silly notion bring her cheer
But how could she ever be so foolish oh where would she get such an idea
Just because I asked a friend about her just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just bacause I saw her then went all to pieces cause she thinks I still care
Yes she thinks I still care
Just because I asked a friend about her just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just because I rang her number by mistake today she thinks I still care
Just because I haunt the same old places
Where the mem'ry of her lingers everywhere
Just because I'm not the happy guy I used to be she thinks I still care
But if she's happy thinking I still need her then let that silly notion bring her cheer
But how could she ever be so foolish oh where would she get such an idea
Just because I asked a friend about her just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just bacause I saw her then went all to pieces cause she thinks I still care
Yes she thinks I still care
Running Scared lyrics - Glen Campbell
Just running scared each place we go so afraid that he might show
Just running scared what would I do if he came back and wanted you
Just running scared feeling low yeah running scared you loved him so
Just running scared afraid to lose if he came back which one would you choose
Then all at once he was standing there so sure of himself his head in the air
My heart was breaking which one would it be
Then you turned around and walked away with me
Just running scared what would I do if he came back and wanted you
Just running scared feeling low yeah running scared you loved him so
Just running scared afraid to lose if he came back which one would you choose
Then all at once he was standing there so sure of himself his head in the air
My heart was breaking which one would it be
Then you turned around and walked away with me

All My Tomorrows lyrics - Glem Campbell
Today I may not have a thing at all except for just a dream or two
But I've got lots of plans for tomorrow and all my tomorrows belong to you
Right now it may not seem like spring at all we're drifting and the laughs are few
But I've got rainbows planned for tomorrow and all my tomorrows belong to you
No one knows better than I that love keeps passing me by that way
But with you there at my side I'll soon be turning the tide just away
As long as I've got arms to cling at all it's you I'll be clinging to
And all the dreams I dream beg or borrow on some bright tomorrow will all come true
And all my tomorrows belong to you
As long as I've got arms to cling at all...
But I've got lots of plans for tomorrow and all my tomorrows belong to you
Right now it may not seem like spring at all we're drifting and the laughs are few
But I've got rainbows planned for tomorrow and all my tomorrows belong to you
No one knows better than I that love keeps passing me by that way
But with you there at my side I'll soon be turning the tide just away
As long as I've got arms to cling at all it's you I'll be clinging to
And all the dreams I dream beg or borrow on some bright tomorrow will all come true
And all my tomorrows belong to you
As long as I've got arms to cling at all...
My Cricket lyrics - Glen Campbell
I was just thinking about you today and the good times that we've had together
But I cannot get through to you find words to say to you darling we're so far away
Oh no I'm not crying these ain't tears in my eyes
I'm so happy I'm dying with laughter
If you would only come over oh I'm sure that you'll see
We're not lonesome my cricket and me
[Ac. Guitar]
Oh your picture reminds me that I wanted to be free I hurt you I throw you away
If you'll just come back over I'm sure that you'll see
We're not lonesome my cricket and me
But I cannot get through to you find words to say to you darling we're so far away
Oh no I'm not crying these ain't tears in my eyes
I'm so happy I'm dying with laughter
If you would only come over oh I'm sure that you'll see
We're not lonesome my cricket and me
[Ac. Guitar]
Oh your picture reminds me that I wanted to be free I hurt you I throw you away
If you'll just come back over I'm sure that you'll see
We're not lonesome my cricket and me
Just For What I Am lyrics - Glen Campbell
Blue ain't just a word Lord it's a feeling
Feeling of loneliness that I can feel right now
Love has looked at me but tried to change me
I wished that love would take me just for what I am.
Just for what I am I want someone to love me
Someone who won't expect me to feel like that old mem'ry
Just for what they see just for being me
I want someone to love me just for what I am.
Cry ain't just a sound it's a sadness
Sadness that lives with me and follows me around
Love wants me to be someone I can't be
I wished that love would take me just for what I am.
Just for what I am I need someone to love me
Someone who won't expect me to feel like that old mem'ry
Just for what they see just for being me
I want someone to love me just for what I am...
Feeling of loneliness that I can feel right now
Love has looked at me but tried to change me
I wished that love would take me just for what I am.
Just for what I am I want someone to love me
Someone who won't expect me to feel like that old mem'ry
Just for what they see just for being me
I want someone to love me just for what I am.
Cry ain't just a sound it's a sadness
Sadness that lives with me and follows me around
Love wants me to be someone I can't be
I wished that love would take me just for what I am.
Just for what I am I need someone to love me
Someone who won't expect me to feel like that old mem'ry
Just for what they see just for being me
I want someone to love me just for what I am...
The Last Thing On My Mind lyrics - Glen Campbell
It's a lesson too late for the learning
Made of sand, made of sand
In the wink of an eye my soul is turnin'
In your hand, in your hand
Are you going away
With no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Oh I could've loved you better
Didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
As we walk along my thoughts are tumblin'
Round and round, round and round
Underneath our feet are someplace rumblin'
Underground, underground
Are you going away
With no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Oh I could've loved you better
Didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
I've got reasons a plenty for goin'
This I know, this I know
The weeds have been steadily growin'
Please don't go, please don't go
Are you going away
With no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
I could've loved you better
Didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
Are you going away
With no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Oh I could've loved you better
Didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
Made of sand, made of sand
In the wink of an eye my soul is turnin'
In your hand, in your hand
Are you going away
With no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Oh I could've loved you better
Didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
As we walk along my thoughts are tumblin'
Round and round, round and round
Underneath our feet are someplace rumblin'
Underground, underground
Are you going away
With no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Oh I could've loved you better
Didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
I've got reasons a plenty for goin'
This I know, this I know
The weeds have been steadily growin'
Please don't go, please don't go
Are you going away
With no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
I could've loved you better
Didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
Are you going away
With no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
Oh I could've loved you better
Didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
You know that was the last thing on my mind
The Last Time I Saw Her lyrics - Glen Campbell
The last time I saw her face her eyes were bathed in starlight and her hair hung long
The last time she spoke to me
Her lips were like the scented flowers inside a rain-drenched forest
But that was so long ago that I can scarcely feel the way I felt before
And if time could heal the wounds
I would tear the threads away that I might bleed some more
The last time I walked with her her laughter was the steeple bells
That ring to greet the morning sun a voice that called to everyone
To love the ground we walked upon those were good days
[Strings]
The last time I held her hand her touch was autumn spring and summer and winter too
The last time I let go of her she walked a way into the night
I lost her in the misty streets a thousand months a thousand years
When other lips will kiss her eyes a million miles beyond the moon that's where she is
The last time I saw her face her eyes were bathed in starlight and she walked alone
The last time she kissed my cheek her lips were like the wilted leaves
Upon the autumn covered hills resting on the frozen ground
The seeds of love lie cold and still beneath a battered marking stone it lies forgotten
The last time she spoke to me
Her lips were like the scented flowers inside a rain-drenched forest
But that was so long ago that I can scarcely feel the way I felt before
And if time could heal the wounds
I would tear the threads away that I might bleed some more
The last time I walked with her her laughter was the steeple bells
That ring to greet the morning sun a voice that called to everyone
To love the ground we walked upon those were good days
[Strings]
The last time I held her hand her touch was autumn spring and summer and winter too
The last time I let go of her she walked a way into the night
I lost her in the misty streets a thousand months a thousand years
When other lips will kiss her eyes a million miles beyond the moon that's where she is
The last time I saw her face her eyes were bathed in starlight and she walked alone
The last time she kissed my cheek her lips were like the wilted leaves
Upon the autumn covered hills resting on the frozen ground
The seeds of love lie cold and still beneath a battered marking stone it lies forgotten
Rose Garden lyrics - Glen Campbell
I beg you pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometimes
When you take you got to give so live and let live or let go
I beg you pardon I never promised you a rose garden
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses growin' on stalks of clover so you better think it over
When it's sweet talking you could make it come true
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter but what would it matter
So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can
I beg you pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine girl there's gotta be a little rain sometimes
[Guitar]
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you I'd just as soon let you go
But there's one thing I want you to know
You better look before you leap still water runs deep
And there won't always be someone there to pull you out
And you know what I'm talking about
So smile for a while...
Along with the sunshine there's gotta be a little rain sometimes
When you take you got to give so live and let live or let go
I beg you pardon I never promised you a rose garden
I could promise you things like big diamond rings
But you don't find roses growin' on stalks of clover so you better think it over
When it's sweet talking you could make it come true
I would give you the world right now on a silver platter but what would it matter
So smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy
Come along and share the good times while we can
I beg you pardon I never promised you a rose garden
Along with the sunshine girl there's gotta be a little rain sometimes
[Guitar]
I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon
But if that's what it takes to hold you I'd just as soon let you go
But there's one thing I want you to know
You better look before you leap still water runs deep
And there won't always be someone there to pull you out
And you know what I'm talking about
So smile for a while...
Help Me Make It Through The Night lyrics - Glen Campbell
Take the ribbons from your hair shake it loose and let it fall
Lay it soft against my skin like the shadows on the wall
Come and lay down by my side till the early morning light
All I'm taking is your time help me make it through the night
I don't care what's right or wrong now I won't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow Lord tonight I need a friend
Yesterday is dead and gone and tomorrow's out of sight
I don't want to be alone help me make it through the night
[Ac. Guitar]
Lord it's sad to be alone please help me make it through the night
No I don't want to be alone please help me make it through the night
Lay it soft against my skin like the shadows on the wall
Come and lay down by my side till the early morning light
All I'm taking is your time help me make it through the night
I don't care what's right or wrong now I won't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow Lord tonight I need a friend
Yesterday is dead and gone and tomorrow's out of sight
I don't want to be alone help me make it through the night
[Ac. Guitar]
Lord it's sad to be alone please help me make it through the night
No I don't want to be alone please help me make it through the night
She Understands Me lyrics - Glen Campbell
She understands me and she cares how I feel
Cause she's always there to hold my hand
Somehow she knows it when this old world's got me down
Yes she understands her man
We've seen the rain and the sunshine together
Many times she's watched me stumble and fall
And she's always there by my side when I need her
Through the good through the bad through it all
And though how it hurts me when her dreams don't come true
When I can't give her all the things I planned
But Lord it ain't easy and she knows that's light
Thank God for my woman she understands
Cause she's always there to hold my hand
Somehow she knows it when this old world's got me down
Yes she understands her man
We've seen the rain and the sunshine together
Many times she's watched me stumble and fall
And she's always there by my side when I need her
Through the good through the bad through it all
And though how it hurts me when her dreams don't come true
When I can't give her all the things I planned
But Lord it ain't easy and she knows that's light
Thank God for my woman she understands
He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother lyrics - Glen campbell
The road is long, with many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where, who knows where
But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
So on we go, his welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bare, we'll get there
For I know he would not encumber me
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
If I'm laden at all, I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart isn't filled with gladness of love for one another
It's a long long road from which there is no return
While we're on our way to there, why not share
And the load, it doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
He ain't heavy - he's my brother, he's my brother, he's my brother
That leads us to who knows where, who knows where
But I'm strong, strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
So on we go, his welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bare, we'll get there
For I know he would not encumber me
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
If I'm laden at all, I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart isn't filled with gladness of love for one another
It's a long long road from which there is no return
While we're on our way to there, why not share
And the load, it doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy - he's my brother
He ain't heavy - he's my brother, he's my brother, he's my brother
If You Could Read My Mind lyrics - Glen Campbell
If you could read my mind love what a tale my thoughts could tell
Just like an old time movie about a ghost from a wishing well
In a cast the dark of a fortress strong with chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me and I won't ever be set free
As long as I'm a ghost that you can't see
If I could read your mind love what a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paper back novel the kind the drug stores sell
Then you reached the part where the heartaches come
The hero would be me but heroes often fail
And you won't read that book again because the ending's just too hard to take
I'd walk away like a movie star who gets burned in a three way script enter No 2
A movie queen to play the scene of bringin' all the good things out in me
But for now love let's be real
I never thought I could feel this way
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong
But the feelin' is gone and I just can't get it back
If you could read my mind love...
But stories always end and If you read between the lines
You'd know that I'm just tryin' to understand the feelin's that you lack
I never thought I could feel this way and I've got to say that I just can't get it back
Just like an old time movie about a ghost from a wishing well
In a cast the dark of a fortress strong with chains upon my feet
You know that ghost is me and I won't ever be set free
As long as I'm a ghost that you can't see
If I could read your mind love what a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paper back novel the kind the drug stores sell
Then you reached the part where the heartaches come
The hero would be me but heroes often fail
And you won't read that book again because the ending's just too hard to take
I'd walk away like a movie star who gets burned in a three way script enter No 2
A movie queen to play the scene of bringin' all the good things out in me
But for now love let's be real
I never thought I could feel this way
And I've got to say that I just don't get it
I don't know where we went wrong
But the feelin' is gone and I just can't get it back
If you could read my mind love...
But stories always end and If you read between the lines
You'd know that I'm just tryin' to understand the feelin's that you lack
I never thought I could feel this way and I've got to say that I just can't get it back

Today Is Mine lyrics - Glen campbell
When the sun came up this morning I took the time to watch it rise
And as its beauty struck the darkness from the sky
I thought how small and unimportant all my troubles seem to be
And how lucky another day belongs to me
And as the sleepy world around me woke up to greet the day
All its silent beauties seemed to say
So what my friend if all your dreams you have and realized
Just look around you you got a whole new day to try
Today is mine today is mine to do with what I will
Today is mine my own special cup to fill
To die a little that I might learn to live to take from life that I might learn to give
Today is mine
Like most men I cursed the present to avoid the peace of mind
And raise my thoughts beyond tomorrow and vision there more peace of mind
But as I view this day around me I can see the fool I've been
For today's the only garden we can tend
Today is mine...
And as its beauty struck the darkness from the sky
I thought how small and unimportant all my troubles seem to be
And how lucky another day belongs to me
And as the sleepy world around me woke up to greet the day
All its silent beauties seemed to say
So what my friend if all your dreams you have and realized
Just look around you you got a whole new day to try
Today is mine today is mine to do with what I will
Today is mine my own special cup to fill
To die a little that I might learn to live to take from life that I might learn to give
Today is mine
Like most men I cursed the present to avoid the peace of mind
And raise my thoughts beyond tomorrow and vision there more peace of mind
But as I view this day around me I can see the fool I've been
For today's the only garden we can tend
Today is mine...
Here We Go Again lyrics - Glen Campbell
Here we go again she's back in town again
I'll take her back again one more time
Here we go again the phone will ring again
I'll be her fool again one more time.
I've been there before and I'll try it again
But any fool knows that there's no way to win
Here we go again she'll break my heart again
I'll play the part again one more time.
[Instrumental]
Here we go again she'll break my heart again
I'll play the part again one more time.
I'll play the part again one more time...
I'll take her back again one more time
Here we go again the phone will ring again
I'll be her fool again one more time.
I've been there before and I'll try it again
But any fool knows that there's no way to win
Here we go again she'll break my heart again
I'll play the part again one more time.
[Instrumental]
Here we go again she'll break my heart again
I'll play the part again one more time.
I'll play the part again one more time...
Theme From Love Story lyrics - Glen Campbell
Where do I begin,
To tell the story of how great a love can be?
The sweet love story that is older than the sea.
The simple truth about the love she brings to me.
Where do I start?
With her first hello!
She gave a meaning to this empty world of mine.
There'd never be another love, another time.
She came into my life and made the living fine.
She fills my heart...
She fills my heart with very special things,
With angels' songs, with wild imaginings.
She fills my soul with so much love,
That anywhere I go, I'm never lonely.
With her along, who could be lonely?
I reach for her hand, it's always there...
How long does it last?
Can love be measured by the hours in a day?
I have no answers now, but this much I can say,
I know I'll need her 'till the stars all burn away
And she'll be there...
She'll be there...
To tell the story of how great a love can be?
The sweet love story that is older than the sea.
The simple truth about the love she brings to me.
Where do I start?
With her first hello!
She gave a meaning to this empty world of mine.
There'd never be another love, another time.
She came into my life and made the living fine.
She fills my heart...
She fills my heart with very special things,
With angels' songs, with wild imaginings.
She fills my soul with so much love,
That anywhere I go, I'm never lonely.
With her along, who could be lonely?
I reach for her hand, it's always there...
How long does it last?
Can love be measured by the hours in a day?
I have no answers now, but this much I can say,
I know I'll need her 'till the stars all burn away
And she'll be there...
She'll be there...
It's Only Make Believe lyrics - Glen campbell
People see us everywhere
They think you really care
But myself I can't deceive
I know it's only make believe
My one and only prayer
Is that some day you'll care
My hopes, my dreams come true
My one and only you
No one will ever know
How much I love you so
My only prayer will be
Someday you'll care for me
But it's only make believe
My hopes, my dreams come true
My life, I'd give for you
My heart, a wedding ring
My all, my everything
My heart, I can't control
You rule my very soul
My plans, my hopes, my schemes
Girl, you are my every dream
But it's only make believe
My one and only prayer
Girl, is that some day you'll care
My hopes, my dreams come true
You're my one and only you
And no one will ever know
Just how much I love you so
And my only prayer will be
That someday you'll care for me
But it's only make believe
It's make believe
They think you really care
But myself I can't deceive
I know it's only make believe
My one and only prayer
Is that some day you'll care
My hopes, my dreams come true
My one and only you
No one will ever know
How much I love you so
My only prayer will be
Someday you'll care for me
But it's only make believe
My hopes, my dreams come true
My life, I'd give for you
My heart, a wedding ring
My all, my everything
My heart, I can't control
You rule my very soul
My plans, my hopes, my schemes
Girl, you are my every dream
But it's only make believe
My one and only prayer
Girl, is that some day you'll care
My hopes, my dreams come true
You're my one and only you
And no one will ever know
Just how much I love you so
And my only prayer will be
That someday you'll care for me
But it's only make believe
It's make believe
MacArthur Park lyrics - Glen campbell
Spring was never waiting for us girl it ran one step ahead as we followed in the dance
'Tween the parted pages and were pressed
In love's hot fevered iron like a stripped pair of pants
I recall the yellow cotton dress
Foaming like a wave on the ground around your knees
And birds like tender babies in your hands
And the old man playing checkers by the trees
Mac Arturh Park is melting in the dark all the sweet green ising flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never had that recipe again oh no
There will be another songs for me for I will sing it
There will be another dream for me someone will bring it
I'll drink the wine while it is warm and never let you catch me looking in the sun
But after all the loves of my life after all the loves of my life you'll still be the one
I will take my life into my hands and I will use it
I will win the worship in their eyes and I will lose it
I will have the things that I desire
And my passions flow like rivers through the sky
But after all the loves of my life oh after all the loves of my life
I'll be thinking of you and wondering why
Mac Arturh Park is melting...
'Tween the parted pages and were pressed
In love's hot fevered iron like a stripped pair of pants
I recall the yellow cotton dress
Foaming like a wave on the ground around your knees
And birds like tender babies in your hands
And the old man playing checkers by the trees
Mac Arturh Park is melting in the dark all the sweet green ising flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never had that recipe again oh no
There will be another songs for me for I will sing it
There will be another dream for me someone will bring it
I'll drink the wine while it is warm and never let you catch me looking in the sun
But after all the loves of my life after all the loves of my life you'll still be the one
I will take my life into my hands and I will use it
I will win the worship in their eyes and I will lose it
I will have the things that I desire
And my passions flow like rivers through the sky
But after all the loves of my life oh after all the loves of my life
I'll be thinking of you and wondering why
Mac Arturh Park is melting...
As Far As I'm Concerned lyrics - Glen Campbell
As far as I'm concerned I don't believe the words
They say about you as far as I'm concerned
I think it's time they learn that nothing I have heard
Could make me doubt you as far as I'm concerned.
As far as I'm concerned I'd rather be unhappy dear with you
Than to look for happiness with someone new
For always in my heart there'll be a flame that burns
For you alone dear as far as I'm concerned.
As far as I'm concerned I'd rather be unhappy dear with you
Than to look for happiness with someone new
For always in my heart there'll be a flame that burns
For you alone dear as far as I'm concerned...
They say about you as far as I'm concerned
I think it's time they learn that nothing I have heard
Could make me doubt you as far as I'm concerned.
As far as I'm concerned I'd rather be unhappy dear with you
Than to look for happiness with someone new
For always in my heart there'll be a flame that burns
For you alone dear as far as I'm concerned.
As far as I'm concerned I'd rather be unhappy dear with you
Than to look for happiness with someone new
For always in my heart there'll be a flame that burns
For you alone dear as far as I'm concerned...
Just Another Piece Of Paper lyrics - Glen campbell
Once I had a piece of paper
It was supposed to mean that you were mine
It looked like any other piece of paper,
But I thought there was love between the lines,
But it was...
Just another piece of paper
And it really didn't mean one little thing
To you from the very start
Just another piece of paper
Now I got another piece of paper
Your lawyer, he sent it in the mail today
It looks like any other piece of paper
But it says that you have gone away to stay
And it is...
Just another piece of paper
Blowing in an empty wind
That slows into my heart
Just another piece of paper
Tearing us apart
And it is...
It was supposed to mean that you were mine
It looked like any other piece of paper,
But I thought there was love between the lines,
But it was...
Just another piece of paper
And it really didn't mean one little thing
To you from the very start
Just another piece of paper
Now I got another piece of paper
Your lawyer, he sent it in the mail today
It looks like any other piece of paper
But it says that you have gone away to stay
And it is...
Just another piece of paper
Blowing in an empty wind
That slows into my heart
Just another piece of paper
Tearing us apart
And it is...
Pave Your Way Into Tomorrow lyrics - Glen Campbell
Living for today is part of living for tomorrow
For tomorrow's something we all have to find
It's blanket black at midnight
So your faith must be your night-light
To erase the fear of darkness from your mind
You have to pave your way into tomorrow
You've got to live and let your brother live as well
You've got to pave your way into tomorrow
And let your love of living cast it's spell
Gentle raindrops, falling people streams that keep on growing
Till they build a raging river deep and wide
Life's just a big river and if each man is a giver
We might help to make the ocean satisfied
You've got to pave your way into tomorrow…
You've got to live and let your brother live as well
You've got to pave your way into tomorrow
And let your love of living cast it's spell
And let your love of living cast it's spell
For tomorrow's something we all have to find
It's blanket black at midnight
So your faith must be your night-light
To erase the fear of darkness from your mind
You have to pave your way into tomorrow
You've got to live and let your brother live as well
You've got to pave your way into tomorrow
And let your love of living cast it's spell
Gentle raindrops, falling people streams that keep on growing
Till they build a raging river deep and wide
Life's just a big river and if each man is a giver
We might help to make the ocean satisfied
You've got to pave your way into tomorrow…
You've got to live and let your brother live as well
You've got to pave your way into tomorrow
And let your love of living cast it's spell
And let your love of living cast it's spell
My Way lyrics - Glen Campbell
And now the end is near and so I face the final curtain
My friend I'll say it clear I'll state my case of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full I traveled each and every highway
And more much more than this I did it my way
Regrets I've had a few but then again too few to mention
I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption
I planned each chartered course each careful step along the byway
And more much more than this I did it my way
Yes there were times I'm sure you knew when I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all when there was doubt I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way
I've lived I've laughed and cried I've had my fill my share of losing
And now as tears subside I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that and may I say not in a shy way
Oh no oh no not me I did it my way
For what is a man what has he got if not himself then he has not
To say the things he truly feels and not the worlds of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows and did it my way yes it was my way
My friend I'll say it clear I'll state my case of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full I traveled each and every highway
And more much more than this I did it my way
Regrets I've had a few but then again too few to mention
I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption
I planned each chartered course each careful step along the byway
And more much more than this I did it my way
Yes there were times I'm sure you knew when I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all when there was doubt I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way
I've lived I've laughed and cried I've had my fill my share of losing
And now as tears subside I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that and may I say not in a shy way
Oh no oh no not me I did it my way
For what is a man what has he got if not himself then he has not
To say the things he truly feels and not the worlds of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows and did it my way yes it was my way
Dream Sweet Dreams About Me lyrics - Glen Campbell
Baby won't you dream sweet dreams about me
Let me share your love even if it's only in your mind
Baby won't you dream sweet dreams about me
Dreams of happiness and secret pleasures we have yet to find
And though we're far apart won't you treat me in your heart
Till I'm back in your arms where I belong
And dream sweet dreams about me till I'm home
The time has come and it won't keep that flame on the ground much longer
I've got to say goodbye for a while
So hold me one more time cause hon I'm gonna miss you oh I miss you
So before I go just let me see your smile
And baby won't you dream sweet dreams about me
Let me share your love even if it's only in your mind
And though we're far apart...
Baby won't you dream sweet dreams about me till I'm home
Let me share your love even if it's only in your mind
Baby won't you dream sweet dreams about me
Dreams of happiness and secret pleasures we have yet to find
And though we're far apart won't you treat me in your heart
Till I'm back in your arms where I belong
And dream sweet dreams about me till I'm home
The time has come and it won't keep that flame on the ground much longer
I've got to say goodbye for a while
So hold me one more time cause hon I'm gonna miss you oh I miss you
So before I go just let me see your smile
And baby won't you dream sweet dreams about me
Let me share your love even if it's only in your mind
And though we're far apart...
Baby won't you dream sweet dreams about me till I'm home
Bridge Over Troubled Water lyrics - Glen Campbell
When you're weary feeling small when tears are in your eyes I will dry them all
I'm on your side oh when times get rough and friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl sail on by your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine oh if you need a friend I'm sailing out behind
Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind ease your mind
I'm on your side oh when times get rough and friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl sail on by your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine oh if you need a friend I'm sailing out behind
Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water I will ease your mind ease your mind
Someone Above lyrics - Glen Campbell
See the birds unfolding on the tress see them blossom into leaves
Wise men know someone above has made it so
See the daffodil and crocus there as they bow their heads in prayer
For they know someone above has made it so
When the raindrops fall the flowers grow and the rivers kiss the sea
But there'd be no rain no river flow if there live the fools like me
Man can build his city plan his yard paint a picture called an art
But I know someone above has made it so
When the raindrops fall...
I know someone above has made it so
Wise men know someone above has made it so
See the daffodil and crocus there as they bow their heads in prayer
For they know someone above has made it so
When the raindrops fall the flowers grow and the rivers kiss the sea
But there'd be no rain no river flow if there live the fools like me
Man can build his city plan his yard paint a picture called an art
But I know someone above has made it so
When the raindrops fall...
I know someone above has made it so
Oh Happy Day lyrics - Glen Campbell
Oh happy day oh happy day
When Jesus washed oh when he washed
When my Jesus washed he washed my sins away
Oh happy day oh happy day oh happy day
When Jesus washed oh when he washed
When my Jesus washed he washed my sins away oh happy day
He taught me how to walk fight and pray fight and pray
And in rejoicing in rejoicing every every every day every day
Oh happy day...
When Jesus washed oh when he washed
When my Jesus washed he washed my sins away
Oh happy day oh happy day oh happy day
When Jesus washed oh when he washed
When my Jesus washed he washed my sins away oh happy day
He taught me how to walk fight and pray fight and pray
And in rejoicing in rejoicing every every every day every day
Oh happy day...
I Believe lyrics - Glen Campbell
I believe for every drop of rain that falls a flower grows
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows
And I believe for every one who goes astray someone will come to show the way
I believe yes I believe
I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word
Every time I hear a new born baby cry or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe
I believe above the storm...
I believe yes I believe
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows
And I believe for every one who goes astray someone will come to show the way
I believe yes I believe
I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word
Every time I hear a new born baby cry or touch a leaf or see the sky
Then I know why I believe
I believe above the storm...
I believe yes I believe

You'll Never Walk Alone lyrics - Glen Campbell
When you walk through a storm hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm there's a golden sky and the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind walk on through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on walk on with hope in your heart and you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk never walk alone
(Walk on walk on with hope in your heart) and you'll never walk alone
No you'll never walk never walk alone walk on
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm there's a golden sky and the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind walk on through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on walk on with hope in your heart and you'll never walk alone
You'll never walk never walk alone
(Walk on walk on with hope in your heart) and you'll never walk alone
No you'll never walk never walk alone walk on
One Pair Of Hands lyrics - Glen Campbell
One pair of hands built the mountains one pair of hands formed the sea
And one pair of hands made the sun and the moon every bird every flower every tree
One pair of hands formed the valleys the ocean the rivers and the sand
His hands are so strong so when life goes wrong
Put your faith in the one pair of hands
One pair of hands built the mountains...
And one pair of hands made the sun and the moon every bird every flower every tree
One pair of hands formed the valleys the ocean the rivers and the sand
His hands are so strong so when life goes wrong
Put your faith in the one pair of hands
One pair of hands built the mountains...
He lyrics - Glen campbell
He can turn the ties and calm the angry sea
He alone besides who writes a symphony
He lights every star that makes a darkness bright
He keeps watch all through each long and lonely night
He still finds the time to hear a child's first prayer
Saint or sinner call and always find him there
Though it makes him sad to see the way we live he'll always say I forgive
(He can grab a wish or make a dream come true)
He can paint the clouds and turn the gray to blue)
He alone knows where to find a rainbow's end
He alone can see what lies beyond the bend
He can touch a tree and turn the leaves to gold
He knows every lie that you and I have told
Though it makes him sad to see the way we live he'll always say I forgive
He alone besides who writes a symphony
He lights every star that makes a darkness bright
He keeps watch all through each long and lonely night
He still finds the time to hear a child's first prayer
Saint or sinner call and always find him there
Though it makes him sad to see the way we live he'll always say I forgive
(He can grab a wish or make a dream come true)
He can paint the clouds and turn the gray to blue)
He alone knows where to find a rainbow's end
He alone can see what lies beyond the bend
He can touch a tree and turn the leaves to gold
He knows every lie that you and I have told
Though it makes him sad to see the way we live he'll always say I forgive
Daddy Sang Bass lyrics - Glen Campbell
I remember when I was a lad times were hard and things were bad
But there's a silver lining behind every cloud
Just poor people that's all we were tryin' to make a livin' out of black land dirt
We'd get together in a family circle and sing out loud
(Daddy sang bass mama sang tenor)
Me and little brother would join right in there
Singin' seems to help a troubled soul
Now one of these days and it won't be long I'll rejoin them in a song
I'm gonna join that family circle at the throne
No the circle won't be broken by and by Lord by and by
(Daddy sang bass mama sang tenor)
Me and little brother would join right in there in the sky Lord in the sky
[Guitar]
I remember after work mama would call in all of us
And you could hear us singin' for a country mile
Now little brother has done gone on but I'll rejoin him in a song
We'll be together again up yonder in a while
(Daddy sang bass...
But there's a silver lining behind every cloud
Just poor people that's all we were tryin' to make a livin' out of black land dirt
We'd get together in a family circle and sing out loud
(Daddy sang bass mama sang tenor)
Me and little brother would join right in there
Singin' seems to help a troubled soul
Now one of these days and it won't be long I'll rejoin them in a song
I'm gonna join that family circle at the throne
No the circle won't be broken by and by Lord by and by
(Daddy sang bass mama sang tenor)
Me and little brother would join right in there in the sky Lord in the sky
[Guitar]
I remember after work mama would call in all of us
And you could hear us singin' for a country mile
Now little brother has done gone on but I'll rejoin him in a song
We'll be together again up yonder in a while
(Daddy sang bass...
Try A Little Kindness lyrics - Glen campbell
If you see your brother standing by the road
With a heavy load from the seeds he sowed
And if you see your sister falling by the way
Just stop and say you're goin' the wrong way
You've got to try a little kindness yes show a little kindness
Yes shine your light for everyone to see
And if you'll try a little kindness and you'll overlook the blindness
Of the narrow minded people on the narrow minded streets
Don't walk around the down and out lend a helping hand instead of doubt
And the kindness that you show every day will help someone along their way
You've got to try a little kindness...
You've got to try a little kindness...
With a heavy load from the seeds he sowed
And if you see your sister falling by the way
Just stop and say you're goin' the wrong way
You've got to try a little kindness yes show a little kindness
Yes shine your light for everyone to see
And if you'll try a little kindness and you'll overlook the blindness
Of the narrow minded people on the narrow minded streets
Don't walk around the down and out lend a helping hand instead of doubt
And the kindness that you show every day will help someone along their way
You've got to try a little kindness...
You've got to try a little kindness...
Both Sides Now lyrics - Glen Campbell
Bows and flows of angel hair, and ice cream castles in the air
Feathered canyons everywhere, I've looked at clouds that way
Now they only block the sun, they rain and snow on everyone
So many things I could have done, but clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides now from up and down and still somehow
It's cloud's illusion I recall, I really don't know clouds at all
Moons and Junes and farris wheels. The dizzy dancing way you feel
When every fairytale comes real. I've looked at love that way
Now that's just another show you leave them laughing when you go
If you care don't let them know don't give yourself away
I've looked at love from both sides now from give and take and still somehow
It's love's illusion I recall I really don't know love at all
Tears and fears and feeling proud to say I love you right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds I look at life that way
Now old friends are acting strange. They shake their heads they say I've changed
But something's lost and something's gained in living every day
I've looked at life from both sides now from win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusion I recall. I really don't know life at all
Feathered canyons everywhere, I've looked at clouds that way
Now they only block the sun, they rain and snow on everyone
So many things I could have done, but clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides now from up and down and still somehow
It's cloud's illusion I recall, I really don't know clouds at all
Moons and Junes and farris wheels. The dizzy dancing way you feel
When every fairytale comes real. I've looked at love that way
Now that's just another show you leave them laughing when you go
If you care don't let them know don't give yourself away
I've looked at love from both sides now from give and take and still somehow
It's love's illusion I recall I really don't know love at all
Tears and fears and feeling proud to say I love you right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds I look at life that way
Now old friends are acting strange. They shake their heads they say I've changed
But something's lost and something's gained in living every day
I've looked at life from both sides now from win and lose and still somehow
It's life's illusion I recall. I really don't know life at all
For My Woman's Love lyrics - Glen Campbell
Like the first apartment that we had that bompy little couch that made into a bed
Shower down the hall and footsteps through the wood she said it's just fine
Times were hard for us for quite a while
But through those hungry days she faced it with a smile
Not wanting me to know she's carrying my child she tried to ease my mind
And for my woman's love for my woman's love
Each day I thank the Lord above for my sweet woman's love
Through the years of moving town to town
Still searching for a dream somehow we never found
And wondering if we would ever settle down her love never died
And if I have many things today I owe it to the love I had along the way
No matter what went wrong no matter come what may she stood by my side
And for my woman's love...
For my woman's love...
Shower down the hall and footsteps through the wood she said it's just fine
Times were hard for us for quite a while
But through those hungry days she faced it with a smile
Not wanting me to know she's carrying my child she tried to ease my mind
And for my woman's love for my woman's love
Each day I thank the Lord above for my sweet woman's love
Through the years of moving town to town
Still searching for a dream somehow we never found
And wondering if we would ever settle down her love never died
And if I have many things today I owe it to the love I had along the way
No matter what went wrong no matter come what may she stood by my side
And for my woman's love...
For my woman's love...
Country Girl lyrics - Glen campbell
About five o'clock in the late afternoon sun's gettin' drowsy above me
Tonight I walk neath the sparkling moon with the girl who is happy to love me
She's my sweet country girl and she's all that I need
The whole world wears the smile when she's talking
Sweet country girl it's not hard to believe
Pretty flowers bloom wherever she's been walking uh-huh
Shadows erase in the last light of day night time is startin' to settle
Red colored stone Lord is leading my way to her cottage way down in the meadow
She's my sweet country girl...
Green trees and golden hay and sunshine here every day
Big cities far behind me well it's love with her to think I'm a gonna stay
About five o'clock in the late afternoon...
She's my sweet country girl yes she is
She's my sweet country girl and I love her she's my sweet country girl
Tonight I walk neath the sparkling moon with the girl who is happy to love me
She's my sweet country girl and she's all that I need
The whole world wears the smile when she's talking
Sweet country girl it's not hard to believe
Pretty flowers bloom wherever she's been walking uh-huh
Shadows erase in the last light of day night time is startin' to settle
Red colored stone Lord is leading my way to her cottage way down in the meadow
She's my sweet country girl...
Green trees and golden hay and sunshine here every day
Big cities far behind me well it's love with her to think I'm a gonna stay
About five o'clock in the late afternoon...
She's my sweet country girl yes she is
She's my sweet country girl and I love her she's my sweet country girl
All The Way lyrics - Glen Campbell
When somebody loves you it's no good unless she loves you all the way
Happy to be near you when you need someone to cheer you all the way
Taller than the tallest tree is that's how it's got to be
And deeper than the deep blue sea is now that's how deep it goes if it's real
When somebody needs you it's no good unless she needs you all the way
Through the good or lean years and through all the end between it come what may
Who knows where the love will lead us only a fool would say
But if you let me love you it's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way
Darling all the way
(Who knows where the love will lead us only a fool would say)
But if you let me love you it's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way all the way
Happy to be near you when you need someone to cheer you all the way
Taller than the tallest tree is that's how it's got to be
And deeper than the deep blue sea is now that's how deep it goes if it's real
When somebody needs you it's no good unless she needs you all the way
Through the good or lean years and through all the end between it come what may
Who knows where the love will lead us only a fool would say
But if you let me love you it's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way
Darling all the way
(Who knows where the love will lead us only a fool would say)
But if you let me love you it's for sure I'm gonna love you all the way all the way
Where Do You Go lyrics - Glen campbell
Where do you go when there's nowhere to go
And you don't want to be where you are
Where do you run when there's no run to run and you've already run too far
What good is love when you offer your love but nobody wants to buy
Why do I cry and why am I wondering why
What can you say when there's so much to say but nobody listens to you
And what good are dreams if there's no more than dreams
That don't have a chance to come true
And what can you do when love that you do will ease your troubled mind
And where do you go when you come to the end of the line
What can you say...
And you don't want to be where you are
Where do you run when there's no run to run and you've already run too far
What good is love when you offer your love but nobody wants to buy
Why do I cry and why am I wondering why
What can you say when there's so much to say but nobody listens to you
And what good are dreams if there's no more than dreams
That don't have a chance to come true
And what can you do when love that you do will ease your troubled mind
And where do you go when you come to the end of the line
What can you say...
Honey Come Back lyrics - Glen Campbell
Well honey I know I've said it many times before I said I'd never say it again
I guess I shouldn't say anything at all since you're supposed to belong to him
But I just can't let you go but I'm tellin' you just how much I love you
So that is why I'm gonna say it one more time
Honey come back I just can't stand each lonely day's a little bit longer
And the last time I held you seems like a hundred years ago
Back to his arms and never know the joy of love that used to taste like
Honey come back where you belong to only me
Well I guess that's about all I gotta say
So I'm just gonna pack my bags and I'm gonna walk
I know those bright lights're callin' you honey big fine cars and fancy clothes
But if you ever want someone to just love you and some day you just may
Just give me a call you know where I am and here's what I'll say
Honey come back...
Honey come back where you belong to only me
Honey come back where you belong to only me
I guess I shouldn't say anything at all since you're supposed to belong to him
But I just can't let you go but I'm tellin' you just how much I love you
So that is why I'm gonna say it one more time
Honey come back I just can't stand each lonely day's a little bit longer
And the last time I held you seems like a hundred years ago
Back to his arms and never know the joy of love that used to taste like
Honey come back where you belong to only me
Well I guess that's about all I gotta say
So I'm just gonna pack my bags and I'm gonna walk
I know those bright lights're callin' you honey big fine cars and fancy clothes
But if you ever want someone to just love you and some day you just may
Just give me a call you know where I am and here's what I'll say
Honey come back...
Honey come back where you belong to only me
Honey come back where you belong to only me
Folk Singer lyrics - Glen Campbell
As I walk these narrow streets where a million passin' feet are before me
With my guitar in my hand suddenly I realize nobody knows me
Well yesterday the motor toots screamed and cried my name out for a song
Now the streets are empty and the crowds they go on home
With the rain on my face there's no place where I belong
And my whole life consists of a story of poem at a song
Now the truths I've tried to tell you are as distant as the moon
More than hundred years too late two hundred years too soon
I'm a child of the sage Lord's been in the pages of a book
But when I'm dust and clay where other people stop and to look
And will they marvel and miracles and perform into the high size to the spider
Oh will they take the pages of the book to light of fire
With the rain on my face there's no place where I belong
With my guitar in my hand suddenly I realize nobody knows me
Well yesterday the motor toots screamed and cried my name out for a song
Now the streets are empty and the crowds they go on home
With the rain on my face there's no place where I belong
And my whole life consists of a story of poem at a song
Now the truths I've tried to tell you are as distant as the moon
More than hundred years too late two hundred years too soon
I'm a child of the sage Lord's been in the pages of a book
But when I'm dust and clay where other people stop and to look
And will they marvel and miracles and perform into the high size to the spider
Oh will they take the pages of the book to light of fire
With the rain on my face there's no place where I belong
Love Is Not A Game lyrics - Glen Campbell
Love is like a warm and tender rain
Splashing on the roof beatin' on the window pane
She was like a soft and gentle breeze
Seemin' so sincere pretty as you please.
Though the time we spent together was so small
I keep wondering if I walked through it all
But the way you held me close and called my name
And the pain I'm feeling now tells me love is not a game.
Every time I looked into her eyes
I couldn't really see what was on her mind
'Cause she's been through this many times before
Never realized I must have been a poor.
Now I believe that love could be just simple true and harmony
Happiness for day and night no one wrong or right
But the way you held me close and called my name
And the pain I'm feeling now tells me love is not a game...
Splashing on the roof beatin' on the window pane
She was like a soft and gentle breeze
Seemin' so sincere pretty as you please.
Though the time we spent together was so small
I keep wondering if I walked through it all
But the way you held me close and called my name
And the pain I'm feeling now tells me love is not a game.
Every time I looked into her eyes
I couldn't really see what was on her mind
'Cause she's been through this many times before
Never realized I must have been a poor.
Now I believe that love could be just simple true and harmony
Happiness for day and night no one wrong or right
But the way you held me close and called my name
And the pain I'm feeling now tells me love is not a game...
Once More With Feeling lyrics - Glen campbell
Sometimes myself runs back to you I just can't tell me what to do
Cause I remember when how right it felt within
The shelter of your arms where I would stay
Once more with feeling once more with feeling
Won't you hold me till the night turns into day
I still remember when all wrapped up tight within
The shelter of your arms where I would stay
Sometimes I let me get these blues sometimes my old destroys my news
But I remember when all wrapped up tight within
The shelter of your arms I used to stay
Once more with feeling...
Once more with feeling...
Cause I remember when how right it felt within
The shelter of your arms where I would stay
Once more with feeling once more with feeling
Won't you hold me till the night turns into day
I still remember when all wrapped up tight within
The shelter of your arms where I would stay
Sometimes I let me get these blues sometimes my old destroys my news
But I remember when all wrapped up tight within
The shelter of your arms I used to stay
Once more with feeling...
Once more with feeling...
And The World Keeps Spinning lyrics - Glen Campbell
Well, I never thought that I could make it alone
Thought I would die but I seem to carry on
And I thought my life would surely leave
And, though almost, I have not ceased to be
And even though I thought I lost everything
Today I found that the birds still sing in the morning
And the world keeps spinning 'round
And the world keeps spinning 'round
When someone says goodbye, another dream ends
And just before you give up another dream begins
Someone changed their mind, tears fall to the ground
But you know that one man's smile is another's frown
And the table will turn someday, that's how life is
I have no doubt 'cause you know that time don't stand still
All the world keeps spinning 'round
Yes, the world keeps spinning 'round
Dawn will find me here and I think about
One that I thought I couldn't live without
One day she was here, the next day gone
But the love that was never clear was just alone
And how can you lose something you only thought
That you found so you wipe away the tears with a smile
All the world keeps spinning 'round
Yes, the world keeps spinning 'round
All the world keeps spinning 'round
All the world keeps spinning 'round
Thought I would die but I seem to carry on
And I thought my life would surely leave
And, though almost, I have not ceased to be
And even though I thought I lost everything
Today I found that the birds still sing in the morning
And the world keeps spinning 'round
And the world keeps spinning 'round
When someone says goodbye, another dream ends
And just before you give up another dream begins
Someone changed their mind, tears fall to the ground
But you know that one man's smile is another's frown
And the table will turn someday, that's how life is
I have no doubt 'cause you know that time don't stand still
All the world keeps spinning 'round
Yes, the world keeps spinning 'round
Dawn will find me here and I think about
One that I thought I couldn't live without
One day she was here, the next day gone
But the love that was never clear was just alone
And how can you lose something you only thought
That you found so you wipe away the tears with a smile
All the world keeps spinning 'round
Yes, the world keeps spinning 'round
All the world keeps spinning 'round
All the world keeps spinning 'round
Home Again lyrics - Glen Campbell
Home again I turned my collar to the wind started home again
Home again a place where I can find the friends that's home again
Well I've seen everything that I wanted to see
And I finally see what's important to me I'm going home I'm going home
Home again I've been too long upon my way this way don't pay
Home again too many names I can't recall it's coming home
Well I've done everything I thought I wanted to do
When each step I took took me far away from you I'm going home I'm going home
Home again I can't extend by even time joys ain't crime
Home again somehow I know there's time enough enough to love
Well I've had everything that I thought I would need
Now I'm going home I'm gonna try my hand of freedom
I'm going home I'm going home I'm going home
Home again a place where I can find the friends that's home again
Well I've seen everything that I wanted to see
And I finally see what's important to me I'm going home I'm going home
Home again I've been too long upon my way this way don't pay
Home again too many names I can't recall it's coming home
Well I've done everything I thought I wanted to do
When each step I took took me far away from you I'm going home I'm going home
Home again I can't extend by even time joys ain't crime
Home again somehow I know there's time enough enough to love
Well I've had everything that I thought I would need
Now I'm going home I'm gonna try my hand of freedom
I'm going home I'm going home I'm going home
Galveston lyrics - Glen Campbell
Galveston, oh Galveston, I still hear your sea winds blowin'
I still see her dark eyes glowin'
She was 21 when I left Galveston
Galveston, oh Galveston, I still hear your sea waves crashing
While I watch the cannons flashing
I clean my gun and dream of Galveston
I still see her standing by the water
Standing there lookin' out to sea
And is she waiting there for me?
On the beach where we used to run
Galveston, oh Galveston, I am so afraid of dying
Before I dry the tears she's crying
Before I watch your sea birds flying in the sun
At Galveston, at Galveston
[Instrumental to end]
I still see her dark eyes glowin'
She was 21 when I left Galveston
Galveston, oh Galveston, I still hear your sea waves crashing
While I watch the cannons flashing
I clean my gun and dream of Galveston
I still see her standing by the water
Standing there lookin' out to sea
And is she waiting there for me?
On the beach where we used to run
Galveston, oh Galveston, I am so afraid of dying
Before I dry the tears she's crying
Before I watch your sea birds flying in the sun
At Galveston, at Galveston
[Instrumental to end]
Take My Hand For A While lyrics - Glen campbell
Take my hand for a while explain it to be once again
Just for the sake of my broken heart
Look into my eyes and maybe I will understand
HOW love I counted on was never there
You see I've thought that you might love me
So you caught me it seems off BALANCE with a heart so full
Of love and pretty dreams that two should share
[guitar + strings]
And so I know but please before you go
Take my hand for a while explain it to be once again
Just for the sake of my broken heart
Just for the sake of my broken heart
Look into my eyes and maybe I will understand
HOW love I counted on was never there
You see I've thought that you might love me
So you caught me it seems off BALANCE with a heart so full
Of love and pretty dreams that two should share
[guitar + strings]
And so I know but please before you go
Take my hand for a while explain it to be once again
Just for the sake of my broken heart
If This Is Love lyrics - Glen Campbell
The palpitating beast that beats within my battered breast
Burning and bedevilling, not allowing any rest
The thunder in my mind reflects the storm within my heart
A blasting, blaring sound that tears my soul apart
If this is love... who needs it?
There's a tender, tempting feeling that is growing in my mind
Soothing and caressing a part of me that's blind
A warming worm that's mellowing and eating my resolve
Changing and challenging my cold heart to dissolve
If this is love... I want it!
Now a flaming, flaring fire I feel has trapped me in it's trance
Flashing and flickering and forcing me to dance
I'm raised by its pure energy, aborning me anew
Blinding but enlightening, I know the fire is you
If this is love... I need it
If this is love... I want it
If this is what love is like... oh yes, I need it
Oh if this is what love is like, I wanna have a taste of it
Burning and bedevilling, not allowing any rest
The thunder in my mind reflects the storm within my heart
A blasting, blaring sound that tears my soul apart
If this is love... who needs it?
There's a tender, tempting feeling that is growing in my mind
Soothing and caressing a part of me that's blind
A warming worm that's mellowing and eating my resolve
Changing and challenging my cold heart to dissolve
If this is love... I want it!
Now a flaming, flaring fire I feel has trapped me in it's trance
Flashing and flickering and forcing me to dance
I'm raised by its pure energy, aborning me anew
Blinding but enlightening, I know the fire is you
If this is love... I need it
If this is love... I want it
If this is what love is like... oh yes, I need it
Oh if this is what love is like, I wanna have a taste of it
Today lyrics - Glen campbell
I'll be a dandy and I'll be a rover you'll know who I am by the song that I sing
I'll ease at your table and I'll sleep in your clover
Who cares what tomorrow shall bring
Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberrys and I'll drink your sweet wine
And a million tomorrows shall all pass away here I forget all the joy that is mine today
I can't be contented withg yeasterday's glory
I can't live on promissess winter just brings
Today is my moment and right now is my story while I laught and I cry and I sing
Today while the blossoms...
I'll ease at your table and I'll sleep in your clover
Who cares what tomorrow shall bring
Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberrys and I'll drink your sweet wine
And a million tomorrows shall all pass away here I forget all the joy that is mine today
I can't be contented withg yeasterday's glory
I can't live on promissess winter just brings
Today is my moment and right now is my story while I laught and I cry and I sing
Today while the blossoms...
Gotta Have Tenderness lyrics - Glen Campbell
The sun comes up in the morning over the Neighboring Hill
Breeze sings the sing in the treetop in tune with Mr Whippoorwill
Gotta have tenderness gotta have tenderness we got to have love
Little white clouds are hurryin' somewhere along their way
Across the highways of blue skies they softly seem to say
Gotta have tenderness gotta have tenderness we got to have love
Everybody worries bout the place in the sun but nobody wirries bout love
But place in the sun won't be any fun well it's love the world needs much more of
Now the rain id falling out over the Neighboring Hill
Singing love song to each road in tune with Mr Whippoorwill
Gotta have tenderness gotta have tenderness we've got to have love
Yes we gotta have tenderness oh gotta have tenderness and we got to have love
Breeze sings the sing in the treetop in tune with Mr Whippoorwill
Gotta have tenderness gotta have tenderness we got to have love
Little white clouds are hurryin' somewhere along their way
Across the highways of blue skies they softly seem to say
Gotta have tenderness gotta have tenderness we got to have love
Everybody worries bout the place in the sun but nobody wirries bout love
But place in the sun won't be any fun well it's love the world needs much more of
Now the rain id falling out over the Neighboring Hill
Singing love song to each road in tune with Mr Whippoorwill
Gotta have tenderness gotta have tenderness we've got to have love
Yes we gotta have tenderness oh gotta have tenderness and we got to have love
Friends lyrics - Glen campbell
Friends are never earned they're a gift from the loving God
And they're precious beyond human evaluation
But you dare not take them for granted or they'll lift away like a smoke
And the warmth of their caring will vanish into the chill of the endless nights
Most of my friends are unknowns they probably won't even rate an obituary
Unless they live and die in a small town
Somewhere where nothing much ever happens
But a few of my friends are big people
They'd made the word ring with laughter down to this string of court
They're famous sensitive talented and their names are household words
And yet they're no more precious in God's eyes or in mine
Than those wonderful nobodys who live and die in small towns
Who is your friend he's someone who warms you with a nod
Or with an unspoken word in hard times when you're hurting beyond words
Who is your friend he's someone who holds you to her breast
And sighs softly into your hair when no other medicine could possibly stop the pain
A friend is someone who clings his glass against yours
Or answers the phone at three in the morning when you're lost
And with a few words of encouragement and concern
Makes you realize that you're not really lost at all
Friends come in both sexes in all shapes and sizes
The most important thing they have in common is their ability
To share with you your most sky splitting joys
Or your deepest most spelling ol' some sorrows for they're all your friends
And they're precious beyond human evaluation
But you dare not take them for granted or they'll lift away like a smoke
And the warmth of their caring will vanish into the chill of the endless nights
Most of my friends are unknowns they probably won't even rate an obituary
Unless they live and die in a small town
Somewhere where nothing much ever happens
But a few of my friends are big people
They'd made the word ring with laughter down to this string of court
They're famous sensitive talented and their names are household words
And yet they're no more precious in God's eyes or in mine
Than those wonderful nobodys who live and die in small towns
Who is your friend he's someone who warms you with a nod
Or with an unspoken word in hard times when you're hurting beyond words
Who is your friend he's someone who holds you to her breast
And sighs softly into your hair when no other medicine could possibly stop the pain
A friend is someone who clings his glass against yours
Or answers the phone at three in the morning when you're lost
And with a few words of encouragement and concern
Makes you realize that you're not really lost at all
Friends come in both sexes in all shapes and sizes
The most important thing they have in common is their ability
To share with you your most sky splitting joys
Or your deepest most spelling ol' some sorrows for they're all your friends
Where's The Playground Susie? lyrics - Glen Campbell
The end has come and found us here
With our toys scattered all around us here
The puzzle that we never found an answer for
Still asks us, darlin', just what all the games were for
And here we stand in a box of sand
Where's the playground Susie?
You're the one who's supposed to know her way around
Where's the playground Susie
If I don't stay around?
If I don't stay around?
The carousel has stopped us here
It twirled a time or two and then it dropped us here
And still you're not content with something about me
But what merry-go-round can you ride without me
To take your hand?
How would you stand?
Where's the playground Susie
If I decide to let you go and play around?
Where's the playground Susie
If I don't stay around?
If I don't stay around?
Where's the playground Susie?
You're the one who's supposed to know her way around
Where's the playground Susie
If I decide to let you go and play around?
With our toys scattered all around us here
The puzzle that we never found an answer for
Still asks us, darlin', just what all the games were for
And here we stand in a box of sand
Where's the playground Susie?
You're the one who's supposed to know her way around
Where's the playground Susie
If I don't stay around?
If I don't stay around?
The carousel has stopped us here
It twirled a time or two and then it dropped us here
And still you're not content with something about me
But what merry-go-round can you ride without me
To take your hand?
How would you stand?
Where's the playground Susie
If I decide to let you go and play around?
Where's the playground Susie
If I don't stay around?
If I don't stay around?
Where's the playground Susie?
You're the one who's supposed to know her way around
Where's the playground Susie
If I decide to let you go and play around?
Time lyrics - Glen Campbell
Some people run some people crawl some people don't even move at all
Some roads lead forward some roads lead back
Some roads are bathed in light and some wrapped in fearful black
Some people never get some never give some people never die and some never live
Some folks treat me mean some treat me kind
Most folks just go their way and don't pay me any mind
Time oh good good time where did you go time oh good good time where did you go
Sometimes I'm satisfied sometimes I'm not
Sometimes my face is cold and sometimes it's hot
At sunset I laugh sunrise I cry at midnight I'm in between and I'm wondering why
Time oh good good time where did you go time oh good good time where did you go
Some roads lead forward some roads lead back
Some roads are bathed in light and some wrapped in fearful black
Some people never get some never give some people never die and some never live
Some folks treat me mean some treat me kind
Most folks just go their way and don't pay me any mind
Time oh good good time where did you go time oh good good time where did you go
Sometimes I'm satisfied sometimes I'm not
Sometimes my face is cold and sometimes it's hot
At sunset I laugh sunrise I cry at midnight I'm in between and I'm wondering why
Time oh good good time where did you go time oh good good time where did you go
Oh What A Woman lyrics - Glen Campbell
Oh what a woman she treats me uncommonly good yeah she does
My my woman she treats me like my woman should yeah she does
Well she's good as a woman can be anything to satisfy me
Yes oh what a woman she treats me uncommonly good
Well she cleans my house she sews my britches scratches my back everytime it itches
Cooks my food and has my youngun's makes me proud that she's my woman yeah
She knows I like cornbread butter milk onions and tomatoes
White beans turnip greens Irish potatoes
Sets me a table that's fit for a king cause she loves just being my queen
Oh what a woman treats me uncommonly good
Well some fellows don't know when they take a wife
Just what kind of woman they're stuck with for life
Now I've known men who took their spouse
And she wound up wearin' the britches in the house
Yeah but now my little woman on the other hand can't do enough to please her man
Spends her time just bein' my girl and there's not another like her in the world no
Oh what a woman she treats me uncommonly good yeah she does

Every Time I Itch I Wind Up Scratchin' You lyrics - Glen Campbell
You know, my love, my only wish is happiness for you
So I work real hard to strike it rich but everytime I do
I blow it all on some old witch I hardly ever knew
How come everytime I itch I wind up scratchin' you
When everything's ain't going right, I hurry home to you
You kiss my lips and you comfort me as only you can do
But the eagle flies on Friday night and my senses fly off too
How come everytime I itch I wind up scratchin' you
I dream of coming home to you; a knight in shining armour
'Cause it seems to me that you rate much more
Than a broken down, busted farmer
Everytime I get ahead, I act like someone new
I waste the whole night talking big and spending money too
Then I sneak in bed beside you; broke and blue
How come everytime I itch I wind up scratchin' you, ahhh
How come everytime I itch I wind up scratchin' you
So I work real hard to strike it rich but everytime I do
I blow it all on some old witch I hardly ever knew
How come everytime I itch I wind up scratchin' you
When everything's ain't going right, I hurry home to you
You kiss my lips and you comfort me as only you can do
But the eagle flies on Friday night and my senses fly off too
How come everytime I itch I wind up scratchin' you
I dream of coming home to you; a knight in shining armour
'Cause it seems to me that you rate much more
Than a broken down, busted farmer
Everytime I get ahead, I act like someone new
I waste the whole night talking big and spending money too
Then I sneak in bed beside you; broke and blue
How come everytime I itch I wind up scratchin' you, ahhh
How come everytime I itch I wind up scratchin' you
Wichita Lineman lyrics - Glen Campbell
I am a lineman for the county and I drive the main road
Searchin' in the sun for another overload
I hear you singin' in the wire, I can hear you through the whine
And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line
I know I need a small vacation but it don't look like rain
And if it snows that stretch down south won't ever stand the strain
And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all time
And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line
[Instrumental Interlude]
And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all time
And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line
[Instrumental to end]
Searchin' in the sun for another overload
I hear you singin' in the wire, I can hear you through the whine
And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line
I know I need a small vacation but it don't look like rain
And if it snows that stretch down south won't ever stand the strain
And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all time
And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line
[Instrumental Interlude]
And I need you more than want you, and I want you for all time
And the Wichita Lineman is still on the line

(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay lyrics - Glen campbell
Sittin' in the morning sun I'll be sittin' when the evening comes
Watchin' the ships roll in then I watch 'em roll away again
'Msittin' on the dock of the bay watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time
I left my home in Georgia headed for the Frisco Bay
I had nothin' to live for looked like nothing's gonna come my way
'Msittin' on the dock of the bay watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time
Looks like nothin's gonna change everythin' still remains the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do so I guess I'll remain the same
Sittin' here restin' my bones this loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roamed just to make this dock my home
'Msittin' on the dock of the bay watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time
Watchin' the ships roll in then I watch 'em roll away again
'Msittin' on the dock of the bay watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time
I left my home in Georgia headed for the Frisco Bay
I had nothin' to live for looked like nothing's gonna come my way
'Msittin' on the dock of the bay watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time
Looks like nothin's gonna change everythin' still remains the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do so I guess I'll remain the same
Sittin' here restin' my bones this loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roamed just to make this dock my home
'Msittin' on the dock of the bay watchin' the tide roll away
Sittin' on the dock of the bay wastin' time
If You Go Away lyrics - Glen Campbell
If you go away on this summer day then you might as well take the sun away
All the birds that flew in the summer sky
When our love was new and our hearts were high
When the day was young and the nights were long
And the moon stood still for the night bird's song
If you go away if you go away if you go away
But if you'll stay I'll make you a day like no day has been or will be again
We'll sail the sun we'll glide on the rain we'll talk to the trees and worship the wind
Then if you go I'll understand leave me just enough love to fill up my hand
If you go away if you go away if you go away
If you go away as I know you will you must tell the world to stop turning
Till you return again if you ever do for what good is love without loving you
Can I tell you now as you turn to go I'll be dying slow to the next hello
If you go away if you go away if you go away
If you go away as I know you might there'll be nothing left in the world to trust
Just an empty room full of empty space like the empty look I see on your face
I have been the shadow of your shadow
If I thought it might have kept me by your side
If you go away if you go away if you go away
But if you'll stay I'll make you a night like no night has been or will be again
I'll sail on your smile I'll glide on your touch I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much
But if you go I know I will cry and all the good is gone from the words goodbye
If you go away if you go away if you go away please don't go away
All the birds that flew in the summer sky
When our love was new and our hearts were high
When the day was young and the nights were long
And the moon stood still for the night bird's song
If you go away if you go away if you go away
But if you'll stay I'll make you a day like no day has been or will be again
We'll sail the sun we'll glide on the rain we'll talk to the trees and worship the wind
Then if you go I'll understand leave me just enough love to fill up my hand
If you go away if you go away if you go away
If you go away as I know you will you must tell the world to stop turning
Till you return again if you ever do for what good is love without loving you
Can I tell you now as you turn to go I'll be dying slow to the next hello
If you go away if you go away if you go away
If you go away as I know you might there'll be nothing left in the world to trust
Just an empty room full of empty space like the empty look I see on your face
I have been the shadow of your shadow
If I thought it might have kept me by your side
If you go away if you go away if you go away
But if you'll stay I'll make you a night like no night has been or will be again
I'll sail on your smile I'll glide on your touch I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much
But if you go I know I will cry and all the good is gone from the words goodbye
If you go away if you go away if you go away please don't go away
Ann lyrics - glen campbell
I know I'll never meet another hunk of woman like my Ann
Cause she makes me feel like a great big man
I'm a gonna go tell her mama what I think about her say thank you ma'am
For giving me your daughter Ann
She sure is stacked from her toes to the pretty little nape
Of her neck she's packed like a seed in a grape she's smooth as marble skin
When I see her I believe I'm a real young guy
And every time I go to work I think I might die if I can't hurry home again
If the good Lord worked all night a makin' me a female plan
I'd say no thanks Lord I'll just keep Ann
[Strings]
How could I ever look at any other woman when I've got Ann
Oh I feel so good when she takes my hand
I'm a gonna go tell her daddy what I think about her say thank you man
For giving me your daughter Ann
When I come home and I feel like I've been run over
By a ten-ton truck she can rub my shoulders and soothe my aches and pains
If I lose my job and I'm down to a silver dollar
And I feel like a dried up gourd in a holler she soothes my brow like summer rain
If the good Lord worked all night a making me a female plan
I'd say no thanks you Lord I'll just keep Ann
Oh no thanks you Lord I'll just keep Ann
Cause she makes me feel like a great big man
I'm a gonna go tell her mama what I think about her say thank you ma'am
For giving me your daughter Ann
She sure is stacked from her toes to the pretty little nape
Of her neck she's packed like a seed in a grape she's smooth as marble skin
When I see her I believe I'm a real young guy
And every time I go to work I think I might die if I can't hurry home again
If the good Lord worked all night a makin' me a female plan
I'd say no thanks Lord I'll just keep Ann
[Strings]
How could I ever look at any other woman when I've got Ann
Oh I feel so good when she takes my hand
I'm a gonna go tell her daddy what I think about her say thank you man
For giving me your daughter Ann
When I come home and I feel like I've been run over
By a ten-ton truck she can rub my shoulders and soothe my aches and pains
If I lose my job and I'm down to a silver dollar
And I feel like a dried up gourd in a holler she soothes my brow like summer rain
If the good Lord worked all night a making me a female plan
I'd say no thanks you Lord I'll just keep Ann
Oh no thanks you Lord I'll just keep Ann
Words lyrics - Glen Campbell
Smile an everlasting smile a smile could bring you near to me
Don't ever let me find you're gone cause that would bring a tear to me
This world has lost its glory let's start a brand new story now my love
Right now there'll be no other time and I can show you all my love
Talk an everlasting words and dedicate them all to me
And I will give you all my love I'm here if you should call to me
You think that I don't even mean a single word I say
It's only words and words are all I have to take your heart away
[Strings]
You think that I don't even mean a single word I say

Fate Of Man lyrics - Glen Campbell
[Chorus:]
Pity a man for he don't know
The trouble he'll pass going down life's road
When a man is one and twenty, he thinks he knows it all
He can't see down the road of life where he'll ever fall
But fall he will as he travels through life
With all its pitfalls troubles and strife
Now at fifty, he's going real strong
He has him a family and a nice little home
But old age is creeping up his spine
And the day is coming when the sun won't shine
Now at sixty, he won't have to guess
He's already missed the boat that leads to success
But he's done his best and he can't see why
The fame of life just passed him by
Now at seventy, he can see the light
And he knows he's never been very bright
But he's done his best as he's travelled by
And now all he can do is just sit and sigh
[Chorus]
Now at eighty, he's ready for the wreath
He's wore out his hair and two sets of teeth
He has rheumatism in his hands and feet
And nothing seems good to eat
So you can pity him as he goes up the line
As he wobbles on the spindle and he's almost blind
And you can tell by the way that he travels alone
That it won't be long before he's going home
But if he's kept the commandments as he's travelled through life
He'll have a home in heaven where there'll be no strife
He's worked all his life to get things the way he wants them
He comes here against his will and he goes away disappointed
Pity a man for he don't know
The trouble he'll pass going down life's road
When a man is one and twenty, he thinks he knows it all
He can't see down the road of life where he'll ever fall
But fall he will as he travels through life
With all its pitfalls troubles and strife
Now at fifty, he's going real strong
He has him a family and a nice little home
But old age is creeping up his spine
And the day is coming when the sun won't shine
Now at sixty, he won't have to guess
He's already missed the boat that leads to success
But he's done his best and he can't see why
The fame of life just passed him by
Now at seventy, he can see the light
And he knows he's never been very bright
But he's done his best as he's travelled by
And now all he can do is just sit and sigh
[Chorus]
Now at eighty, he's ready for the wreath
He's wore out his hair and two sets of teeth
He has rheumatism in his hands and feet
And nothing seems good to eat
So you can pity him as he goes up the line
As he wobbles on the spindle and he's almost blind
And you can tell by the way that he travels alone
That it won't be long before he's going home
But if he's kept the commandments as he's travelled through life
He'll have a home in heaven where there'll be no strife
He's worked all his life to get things the way he wants them
He comes here against his will and he goes away disappointed
Dreams Of The Everyday Housewife lyrics - Glen Campbell
She looks in the mirror and stares at the wrinkles that weren't there yesterday
And thinks of the young man that she almost married
What would he think if he saw her this way
She picks up her apron in little girl fashion as something comes into her mind
Then slowly starts dancing remembering her girlhood
And all of the boys she had waiting in line
Ah such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere anytime of the day
And everyday housewife who gave up the good time for me
The photograph album she takes from the closet and slowly turns the page
And carefully picks up the crumbling flower
The first one he gave her now withered with age
She closes her eyes and touches the housedress that suddenly disappears
And just for a moment she's wearing the gown
That broke all their minds back so many years
Ah such are the dreams...
Ah such are the dreams...
Ah such are the dreams...
And thinks of the young man that she almost married
What would he think if he saw her this way
She picks up her apron in little girl fashion as something comes into her mind
Then slowly starts dancing remembering her girlhood
And all of the boys she had waiting in line
Ah such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere anytime of the day
And everyday housewife who gave up the good time for me
The photograph album she takes from the closet and slowly turns the page
And carefully picks up the crumbling flower
The first one he gave her now withered with age
She closes her eyes and touches the housedress that suddenly disappears
And just for a moment she's wearing the gown
That broke all their minds back so many years
Ah such are the dreams...
Ah such are the dreams...
Ah such are the dreams...
The Straight Life lyrics - Glen Campbell
Sometimes I imagine myself as a drifter,
Seeker of fortunes, connoisseur of great wines.
Dashing through meadows of yellow and green,
Trying to catch the impossible dream,
Leavin' the straight life behind.
Sometimes my thoughts may find me in Mexico,
Drinkin' tequila goin' out of my mind.
Havin' a ball on a couple 'a bob,
Treatin' the ladies to corn on the cob,
Leavin' the straight life behind.
Suddenly all my silly thoughts disappear,
She comes to me softly with crackers and beer,
Winkin' and blinkin' and blowin' in my ear,
Runnin' away with my mind.
It's great to be in love,
I'm not really thinkin' of
Leavin' the straight life behind
I'm just playin' a game in my mind.
Once in a while in my mind I go bummin',
Goin' to nowhere, with no worry of time
Runnin' along chasin' after a train,
Hummin' a song in the sun and the rain,
Leavin' the straight life behind.
I can just see me on a tropical island,
Ridin' the surf and drinkin' coconut wine.
Havin' me fun with the girls in the sand,
Chasin' the sun through an innocent land,
Leavin' the straight life behind.
Suddenly all my silly thoughts disappear,
She comes to me softly with crackers and beer,
Winkin' and blinkin' and blowin' in my ear,
Runnin' away with my mind.
It's great to be in love,
I'm not really thinkin' of
Leavin' the straight life behind,
I'm just playin' a game in my mind.
Seeker of fortunes, connoisseur of great wines.
Dashing through meadows of yellow and green,
Trying to catch the impossible dream,
Leavin' the straight life behind.
Sometimes my thoughts may find me in Mexico,
Drinkin' tequila goin' out of my mind.
Havin' a ball on a couple 'a bob,
Treatin' the ladies to corn on the cob,
Leavin' the straight life behind.
Suddenly all my silly thoughts disappear,
She comes to me softly with crackers and beer,
Winkin' and blinkin' and blowin' in my ear,
Runnin' away with my mind.
It's great to be in love,
I'm not really thinkin' of
Leavin' the straight life behind
I'm just playin' a game in my mind.
Once in a while in my mind I go bummin',
Goin' to nowhere, with no worry of time
Runnin' along chasin' after a train,
Hummin' a song in the sun and the rain,
Leavin' the straight life behind.
I can just see me on a tropical island,
Ridin' the surf and drinkin' coconut wine.
Havin' me fun with the girls in the sand,
Chasin' the sun through an innocent land,
Leavin' the straight life behind.
Suddenly all my silly thoughts disappear,
She comes to me softly with crackers and beer,
Winkin' and blinkin' and blowin' in my ear,
Runnin' away with my mind.
It's great to be in love,
I'm not really thinkin' of
Leavin' the straight life behind,
I'm just playin' a game in my mind.
Reason To Believe lyrics - Glen Campbell
If I listened long enough to you
I'd find a way
To believe that its all true
Knowing that you lied straight faced
While I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe
If I gave you time to change my mind
I'd find a way
And I'd leave the past behind
Knowing that you lied straight faced
While I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe
Someone like you
Makes it hard to live without
Somebody else
Someone like you
Makes it easy to give
Never thinkin' of myself
If I listened long enough to you
I'd find a way
To believe that its all true
Knowing that you lied straight faced
While I cried
Still I looked to find a reason to belie-ie-ieve
In you...
I'd find a way
To believe that its all true
Knowing that you lied straight faced
While I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe
If I gave you time to change my mind
I'd find a way
And I'd leave the past behind
Knowing that you lied straight faced
While I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe
Someone like you
Makes it hard to live without
Somebody else
Someone like you
Makes it easy to give
Never thinkin' of myself
If I listened long enough to you
I'd find a way
To believe that its all true
Knowing that you lied straight faced
While I cried
Still I looked to find a reason to belie-ie-ieve
In you...
You Better Sit Down Kids lyrics - Glen Campbell
You better sit down kids, I'll tell you why, kids
You might not understand, kids, But give it a try, kids
Now how should I put this, I've got something to say
Your mama is staying, But I'm goin' away
No, we're not mad, kids, And it's hard to say why
Your mother and I, kids, Don't see eye to eye
Say your prayers before you go to bed
Make sure you get yourself to school on time
I know you'll do the things your mother asks
She's gonna need you most to stay in line
Keep in mind your mama's gonna need
Your help a whole lot more than she ever did before
No more fightin' over little things 'cause
I won't be here to stop them anymore
I know you don't want this, But neither do we
But sometimes things happen, That we can't foresee
So try to be calm, kids, And don't look so sad
Just cause I am leavin', I'll still be your dad
But just remember I love you, And though I'm not here
Just call if you need me, I'll always be near
Say your prayers before you go to bed
Make sure you get yourself to school on time
I know you'll do the things your mother asks
She's gonna need you most to stay in line
Keep in mind your mother's gonna need
Your help a whole lot more than she ever did before
No more fightin' over little things 'cause
I won't be here to stop them anymore
Well, I have to go now, So kiss me goodbye
My eyes are just red, kids, I'm too big to cry
You might not understand, kids, But give it a try, kids
Now how should I put this, I've got something to say
Your mama is staying, But I'm goin' away
No, we're not mad, kids, And it's hard to say why
Your mother and I, kids, Don't see eye to eye
Say your prayers before you go to bed
Make sure you get yourself to school on time
I know you'll do the things your mother asks
She's gonna need you most to stay in line
Keep in mind your mama's gonna need
Your help a whole lot more than she ever did before
No more fightin' over little things 'cause
I won't be here to stop them anymore
I know you don't want this, But neither do we
But sometimes things happen, That we can't foresee
So try to be calm, kids, And don't look so sad
Just cause I am leavin', I'll still be your dad
But just remember I love you, And though I'm not here
Just call if you need me, I'll always be near
Say your prayers before you go to bed
Make sure you get yourself to school on time
I know you'll do the things your mother asks
She's gonna need you most to stay in line
Keep in mind your mother's gonna need
Your help a whole lot more than she ever did before
No more fightin' over little things 'cause
I won't be here to stop them anymore
Well, I have to go now, So kiss me goodbye
My eyes are just red, kids, I'm too big to cry
That's Not Home lyrics - Glen Campbell
Maybe tomorrow I won't go home maybe she won't even care
At seven she'll throw a kiss towards the door and smile at my empty chair
For there's nothing there for a man to cling to nothing to pull me back home
Only a girl that's a stranger to me breathing on flames that are gone
Home isn't where I hang up my hat every night
And home isn't anything like cold arms holding me tight that's not right
And home isn't some place to go just to feel all alone that's not home
Maybe she might never see me again maybe that's the best way
I'll join myself to some south blowing wind leave her to find her own way
And maybe I'll find home someday
At seven she'll throw a kiss towards the door and smile at my empty chair
For there's nothing there for a man to cling to nothing to pull me back home
Only a girl that's a stranger to me breathing on flames that are gone
Home isn't where I hang up my hat every night
And home isn't anything like cold arms holding me tight that's not right
And home isn't some place to go just to feel all alone that's not home
Maybe she might never see me again maybe that's the best way
I'll join myself to some south blowing wind leave her to find her own way
And maybe I'll find home someday
Freeborn Man lyrics - Glen Campbell
I was born in southland twenty some odd years ago
I ran away for the first time when I was four years old
I'm a freeborn man my home is on my back
I know every inch of highway every foot of backroad every mile of railroad track
I got a gal Cincinnati I got a woman in San Antone
I've always loved the girl next door but any place is home
I'm a freeborn man...
Got me a worn out guitar I carry in an old coal sack
I've hocked it bout two hundred times but I always get it back
I'm a freeborn man...
[Guitar]
You may not like my appearance may not like my song
May not like the way I talk but you'll like me when I'm gone
I'm a freeborn man...
I'm a freeborn man...
I ran away for the first time when I was four years old
I'm a freeborn man my home is on my back
I know every inch of highway every foot of backroad every mile of railroad track
I got a gal Cincinnati I got a woman in San Antone
I've always loved the girl next door but any place is home
I'm a freeborn man...
Got me a worn out guitar I carry in an old coal sack
I've hocked it bout two hundred times but I always get it back
I'm a freeborn man...
[Guitar]
You may not like my appearance may not like my song
May not like the way I talk but you'll like me when I'm gone
I'm a freeborn man...
I'm a freeborn man...
The Last Letter lyrics - Glen Campbell
Why do you treat me as if I were only a friend
What have I done that's made you so distant and cold
Sometimes I wonder if you'll be contented again
Will you be happy when you are withered and old
I cannot offer you diamonds and mansions so fine
I cannot offer you all clothes that your young body crave
But if you'll say that you just love me and always be mine
Just think of the tears the heartaches and sorrow you'll save
While I am writing this letter I think of the past
And of the promises that you have broken so free
But to this old world I'll soon say my farewell at last
Cause I will be gone when you read this last letter from me
What have I done that's made you so distant and cold
Sometimes I wonder if you'll be contented again
Will you be happy when you are withered and old
I cannot offer you diamonds and mansions so fine
I cannot offer you all clothes that your young body crave
But if you'll say that you just love me and always be mine
Just think of the tears the heartaches and sorrow you'll save
While I am writing this letter I think of the past
And of the promises that you have broken so free
But to this old world I'll soon say my farewell at last
Cause I will be gone when you read this last letter from me
She Called Me Baby lyrics - Glen campbell
She called me baby baby all night long used to hold and kiss me till the dawn
Then one day I awoke and she was gone there's no more baby baby all night long
Well she called me baby baby all night long
She kissed my tears away when things went wrong
What I'd give if she'd just come back home and call me baby baby all night long
[Trumpet]
She called me baby baby baby all night long
She held me up so high when things went wrong
Now each time in dreams just like a song I still hear baby baby all night long
Oh I hear baby baby baby all night long
Oh I hear baby baby baby all night long
Oh I hear baby baby baby all night long
Then one day I awoke and she was gone there's no more baby baby all night long
Well she called me baby baby all night long
She kissed my tears away when things went wrong
What I'd give if she'd just come back home and call me baby baby all night long
[Trumpet]
She called me baby baby baby all night long
She held me up so high when things went wrong
Now each time in dreams just like a song I still hear baby baby all night long
Oh I hear baby baby baby all night long
Oh I hear baby baby baby all night long
Oh I hear baby baby baby all night long
I Have No One To Love Me Anymore lyrics - Glen campbell
My baby's gone I have no one who needs me anymore
I can't go on I have no one to love me anymore
Time on my hands you on my mind giving in the broken dreams you left behind
Wherever I go whatever I do my heart keeps blinding me reminding me we're through
My baby's gone...
You took my hand and turned away leaving me withing the walls of yesterday
Wherever I go whatever I do there's no use trying I guess I'll never forget you
My baby's gone...
I can't go on I have no one to love me anymore
Time on my hands you on my mind giving in the broken dreams you left behind
Wherever I go whatever I do my heart keeps blinding me reminding me we're through
My baby's gone...
You took my hand and turned away leaving me withing the walls of yesterday
Wherever I go whatever I do there's no use trying I guess I'll never forget you
My baby's gone...
