We used to have good times together but now I feel them slip away
It makes me cry to see love die so sad to watch good love go bad
Remember how you used to feel dear you said nothing could change your mind
It breaks my heart to see us part so sad to watch good love go bad
Is it any wonder I feel so blue when I know for certain that I'm losing you
Remember how you used to feel dear you said nothing could change your mind
It makes me cry to see love die so sad to watch good love go bad
So sad to watch good love go bad

In our home were never the angry words said but thing are like they were then
Cause hearts have been broken and teardrops have fell let's talk it over again
Let's talk it over again let's give our hearts a fair chance to win
It's so easy to walk out but so hard to walk in let's talk it over again
[ steel ]
Now the first time we sat down and tried to work things out
We just borrowed all our heartache that we mend
Let's be honest with each other let's not leave it down let's talk it over again
Let's talk it over again...
Let's talk it over again

Well, Why Don't You Love Me like you used to do
How come you treat me like a worn out shoe
My hair's still curly and my eyes are still blue
Why Don't You Love Me Like You Used To Do.
Ain't had no lovin' like a huggin' and a kissin'
in a long, long while
We don't get nearer or further or closer
than a country mile;
Why don't you spark me like you used to do
And say sweet nothin's like you used to coo
I'm the same old trouble that you've always been through
So, Why Don't You Love Me like you used to do.
Well, why don't you be just like you used to be
How come you find so many faults with me
Somebody's changed so let me give you a clue
Why Don't You Love Me like you used to do.
Ain't had no lovin' like a huggin' and a kissin'
in a long, long while
We don't get nearer or further --> OR CLOSER
than a country mile;
Why don't you say the things you used to say
What makes you treat me like a piece of clay
My hair's still curly and my eyes are still blue
Why Don't You Love Me like you used to do.

What We Used To Hank On To (Is Gone) |

I'm slowly removing the shadow that endangers the future we have planned
With her gone I'd give you the best in loving well I'm removing the shadow so you can
It's hard to hurt someone that really loves you
Specially after you've promised them the moon
I know but I've been waiting a long time so if you want me you've got to tell her soon
Now I'm not complaining cause I love you
And I want to be with you every minute I can
I want to wake up in your arms and not worry
Honey I know how to satisfy a man
Now I know I'm taking too long removing the shadow
But honey no matter what I have to do just put your trust in me
I love you cause you're kind sweet and understanding
In fact you're everything I wanted her to be
Well if I'm that close to what you're wanting come and get me
And let removing the shadow be through
I think I've learned how to give you love with satisfaction
And whatever she didn't know I'll teach you
I'm slowly removing the shadow that endangers the future we have planned
With her gone I'd give you the best in loving well I'm removing the shadow so you can

Comb your hair and paint and powder you act proud and I'll act prouder
You sing loud and I'll sing louder tonight we're settin' the woods on fire
You're my gal and I'm your feller dress up in my frock and yeller
I'll look swell but you'll look sweller settin' the woods on fire
We'll take in all the honky tonks tonight we're having fun
We'll show the folks a brand new dance that never has been done
I don't care who thinks we're silly you'll be daffy I'll be dilly
We'll order up two bowls of chili settin' the woods on fire
[ guitar - steel ]
I'll gas up my hot rod stoker we'll get hotter than a poker
You'll be broke but I'll be broker tonight we're settin' the woods on fire
We'll sit close to one another up our street and down the other
Tonight we'll have ball oh brother settin' the woods on fire
We'll put aside a little time to fix a flat or two
My trey and tubes are doin' fine but the air is showin' through
You clap hands and I'll start howlin' we'll do all the law's allowin'
Tomorrow I'll be right back plowin' settin' the woods on fire

If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway would you have my baby
If you were a carpenter and I were a lady
I'd marry you anyway I'd have your baby
If a tinker was my trade would I still find you
I'd be carrying the pots you made following behind you
Save your love through loneliness save your love through sorrow
I gave you my onliness give me your tomorrow
If I were a miller at a mill wheel grinding
Would you miss your colored blouse and your soft shoe shining
If you were a miller at a mill wheel grinding
I'd not miss my colored blouse and my soft shoe shining
Save your love through loneliness...
If I worked my hands in wood would you still love me
I'd answer you yes I would and would you not be above me
If I were a carpenter and you were a lady I'd marry you anyway I'd have your baby
Save your love through loneliness...

I could say it's over now
That I was glad to see you go
I could hate you for the way I'm feelin'
My lips could tell a lie, but My Heart Would Know.
It's a sin to make me cry
When you know I love you so
I could tell my heart that I don't miss you
My lips could tell a lie, but My Heart Would Know.
I could give you all the blame
But I'm sure the truth would show
I could tell this world I've found a new love
My lips could tell a lie, but My Heart Would Know.
I can't fool my cryin' heart
'Cause it knows I need you so
I could tell my heart I'm glad we parted
My lips could tell a lie, but My Heart Would Know.
