Don't Leave Without Taking Your Silver

Don't Leave Without Taking Your Silver

You said I'm taking everything that is mine right down to the clock on the wall. I watched as you packed up your things. Then you turned and said, "Well, that's all." Oh but you've overlooked just one item. It's as much yours as the clothes that you wear.

Don't leave without taking your silver. You left it right here in my hair.

It's yours, for I didn't have it the moment you captured my soul. First a little streak showed then slowly it wove it's way right in with the gold. I don't see how you overlooked it. For we both know that you put it there.


Don't leave without taking your silver. You left it right here in my hair. No don't leave without taking your silver. You left it right here in my hair.

Don't Let Me Cross Over

Don't Let Me Cross Over

Don't let me cross over love's cheating line
I'm tempted my darling to steal you away don't let me cross over stay out of my way
You know that I love you and I'm not the stealing kind
But I'm faced with heartaches and love's cheating line
Don't let me cross over love's cheating line
You belong to another and can never be mine
I know one step closer would be heaven divine

Don't let me cross over love's cheating line

I've tried to forget you but what else can I do
When your eyes keep saying that you love me too
I know if I lose you not a dream will be left
I don't want to cheat dear but I can't help myself
Don't let me cross over...

Don't Make Me Build Another Wall

Don't Make Me Build Another Wall

Not long ago this heart of mine was broken
And around this heart of mine I built a wall
Just living like there never was tomorrow
Then I met you that's when I knew the wall would fall.

The wall is falling from around this heart of mine
I can't resist your tender kiss that's so devine
To lose you now would be my big downfall
So please don't make me build another wall.

--- Instrumental ---


I'm free now from the prison built by heartbreak
Where memories from your love have held me down
But in your arms I've found true love and freedom
I'm glad you crumbled my walls to the ground.

The wall has falling from around this heart of mine.
I can't resist your tender kiss that's so devine
To lose you now would be my big downfall.
So please don't make me build another wall...

Don't Send Me No Angels

Don't Send Me No Angels

When the storm clouds gather and I'm losing my mind
She stands right beside me she lights up my day
She's the one thing I found in a world that's gone wrong
She's the words and the music to the world's finest song

(Chorus
Lord let me keep her at least for a while
I promise I'll love her 'till I've walked my last mile
When your trumpets are sounding and you've played my song

Don't send me no angels 'cause I've got my own

She stayed with me thru the hard times that's still goin' on
That old feeling between us it's still comming on strong
When my eyes close forever and my last breath is gone
Don't send me no angels 'cause I've got my own

(Repeat chorus)

Don't send me no angels 'cause I've got my own

Don't Stop The Music

Don't Stop The Music

Don't stop the music let it play one more song
The same one that's played tonight for so long
She's out with another I saw them tonight
Sitting there close together she knows that not right
So don't stop the music let it play one more song
The same one that's played tonight for so long
My pockets are empty I spent my last dime

But I've just got to hear that song one more time
[ piano ]
Don't be mad at me Mister I know that it's wrong
But I want you to hear the words of that song
So don't stop the music don't make me go home
I know she's not there and I cry all night long
So don't stop the music...

Don't Think I Don't Love You

Don't Think I Don't Love You

Your old cheatin' heart has finally caught you
A thousand times I told you that it would
A great big wall has come between us
And I wouldn't even love you if I could
So don't think it ain't been fun cause it ain't
Don't think I still can't care cause I can't
Don't think my mind won't change cause it won't

Don't think I don't love you cause I don't
Well all my tossing and turning nights are over
I don't even feel a touch of blues
Once more I can see the sun a shining
Shining though I know I'm over you
So don't think it ain't been fun cause it ain't...
Don't think I don't love you cause I don't

Don't You Ever Get Tired Of Hurting Me

Don't You Ever Get Tired Of Hurting Me

You make my eyes run over all the time
You're happy when I'm out of my mind
You don't love me, but you won't let me be
Don't you ever get tired of hurtin' me

(Chorus)
You must think I look bad with a smile
For you haven't let me wear one
In such a long, long while
Still I keep running back, why must this be
Don't you ever get tired of hurtin' me

(Repeat Chorus)


(As performed by Ray Price, Later version)

You make my eyes run over all the time
You're happy when I'm out of my mind
You don't love me, but you won't let me be

Don't you ever get tired of hurtin' me

(Chorus)
You must think I look bad with a smile
For you haven't let me wear one
In such a long, long while
Still I keep running back, why must this be
Don't you ever get tired of hurtin' me

Someone must have hurt you long ago
But why take revenge on one who loves you so
You don't need me, but you won't let me be
Don't you ever get tired of hurtin' me

(Repeat chorus)

Don't you ever get tired of hurtin' me

Dream On

Dream On

I've heard there's talk around
Sayin' I'm out of control.
Something about too many bottles
And a love that's grown cold.
But you know talk is cheap
And sometime these stories get old.
But I keep on singing my songs
And I still got some soul.

Chorus:
So dream on if you think I still carry the flame.
Dream on if you think that I still feel the same.
Your love is just an old memory.
And I'm alright
You don't have to worry 'bout me.

I've spent my whole life going the way that I choose.
And I've tried to find a way where no one could see.
It seems unkind to know
That maybe I've done it all wrong.
When I see my life flashing before me
Sometimes in these songs.

Chorus:
So dream on if you think I still carry the flame.
Dream on if you think that I still feel the same.
Your love is just an old memory.
And I'm alright
You don't have to worry 'bout me.

So dream on if you think I still carry the flame.
Dream on...

Drive Me To Drink

Drive Me To Drink

Tonight do me a favor
On your way to do me wrong
Drop me at a honky tonk
Don't leave me here alone
I washed and waxed the car today
I even filled the tank
If you're gonna drive me crazy
Drive me to drink

All the mothers and your lovers
Will be happy I suppose
You'll be in his arms again
And I'll be off the road
The highway will be safer
And they'll have you to thank
If you're gonna drive me crazy, baby
Drive me to drink

You're in the driver's seat
It's all up to you
I'll be your dedicated man
Or your designated fool

But if you're hell-bent
And bound to bolt
I can't change the way you think
If you're gonna drive me crazy, baby
Drive me to drink

(Repeat last two verses)

Well if you're gonna drive me crazy, baby
Drive me to drink

Each Season Changes For You

Each Season Changes For You

Like the weather your heart changes with each season
Spring time, summer, fall and winter too
Though I know I'll never understand the reason
I'll still wonder why each season changes you.

It was spring time when you said that you were sorry
And our love grew warmer with the summer sun
And in the fall I seem to see your love was changing
Broke my heart to see what the weather time had done.

--- Instrumental ---

Like the weather your heart changes with each season
Spring time, summer, fall and winter too
Though I know I'll never understand the reason
I'll still wonder why each season changes you...
