"Take A Broken Heart"

"Take A Broken Heart"


They say men are such fools
And a woman must forgive them
I know I was wrong
Forgive me
Won't you give me one more chance

Take a broken heart
Make a broken heart smile again
I'm in love with you
Say you love me too
And take my arms
Take my lips
Take my tears away and love me
Come back to my arms
Believe me, if you leave me I will die

Take a broken heart
Make a broken heart smile again
I'm in love with you
Say you love me too, sweetheart
Come back to my arms
Believe me, if you leave me I will die

Take a broken heart
Make a broken heart smile again
I'm in love with you
Say you love me too, sweetheart

"Take A City Bride"

"Take A City Bride"



I got a house on stilts and a five dollar bill
Sitting on the banks of a muddy, muddy bayou
That's a lot better than the streets of crowded cars
Pawnshops, friendly neighborhood bars

But your mom and your papa won't let me come a courtin'
Says I can't make a good livin' for the child
But the fish bite good and the crawfish are plenty
Gonna make a lot of money when I take a city bride

I got a pain, can't run, and your papa's got a big dog
Snappin' at my heels, get away you mangey hound
But the lights still burnin' and the ladders by the window
I take a chance, gonna make another round

But your mom and your papa won't let me come a courtin'
Says I can't make a good livin' for the child
But the fish bite good and the crawfish are plenty
Gonna make a lot of money when I take a city bride

"Take These Chains From My Heart"

"Take These Chains From My Heart"



Take these chains from my heart and set me free
You've grown cold and no longer care for me
All my faith in love 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

"Teenage Doll"

"Teenage Doll"



Sweet as honey from a bee, all her lovin' is just for me
She's my girl, yes she's my teenage doll

My teenage doll, my teenage doll, oh how I love my teenage doll
My teenage doll, my teenage doll, oh how I love my teenage doll

With her hair curled on top and her dress in pink
She looks sad and mean with the cutest wink, I know she's the girl for me

My teenage doll, my teenage doll, oh how I love my teenage doll
My teenage doll, my teenage doll, oh how I love my teenage doll

We go ridin' in the pale moonlight, all the stars are shinin' bright
All alone in heavenly bliss, mmm that's when I get my kiss

My teenage doll, my teenage doll, oh how I love my teenage doll
My teenage doll, my teenage doll, oh how I love my teenage doll

Sometimes we have a little fight, then we make up following night
She and I make good company, later on she'll belong to me

My teenage doll, my teenage doll, oh how I love my teenage doll
My teenage doll, my teenage doll, oh how I love my teenage doll

"Teenage Idol"

"Teenage Idol"



Some people call me a teenage idol
Some people say they envy me
I guess they got no way of knowing
How lonesome I can be

I need somebody to be my baby
Someone to tell my troubles to
I've got no time to ever find her
Cause I'm just passing through

I travel around from town to lonely town
I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone
If I find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name
That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone

I get no rest when I'm feeling weary
I got to pack my bags and go
I got to be somewhere tomorrow
To smile and do my show

I travel around from town to lonely town
I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone
If I find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name
That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone

Some people call me a teenage idol
Some people say they envy me
I guess they got no way of knowing
How lonesome I can be
How lonesome I can be

"Thank You Darling"

"Thank You Darling"



Thank you, thank you darling for everything you gave to me
Not just for the broken heart, but the precious memory
I remember darlin' everything we used to do
Walkin' together hand in hand, and the first time I kissed you
I said thank you, thank you darling for everything you gave to me
Not just for the broken heart, but the precious memory

I remember darling, the time I brought you home to late
We were so afraid, afraid it would be our very last date
I said thank you, thank you darling for everything you gave to me
Not just for the broken heart, but the precious memory

I said thank you, thank you darling
Thank you, thank you darling
Thank you, thank you darling

Each time I hold you when I feel good, uh huh

"That Warm Summer Night"

"That Warm Summer Night"



The April walk through fields and farms
And then I held you in my arms
But most of all, I still recall
That warm summer night

The autumn hayride, the frosty breeze
The fading colour of the trees
But through the fall, I still recall
That warm summer night

Through all my life, I can't forget
That moonlit picnic by the sea
We left the others far behind
And then you gave your love to me

The winter sleighride through falling snow
A kiss beneath the mistletoe
Through cold December, I still remember
That warm summer night

Through all my life, I can't forget
That moonlit picnic by the sea
We left the others far behind
And then you gave your love to me

The winter sleighride through falling snow
A kiss beneath the mistletoe
Through cold December, I still remember
That warm summer night

 

[fox69]

"That's All"

"That's All"



I can only give you love that lasts forever
And a promise to be near each time you call
And the only heart I own
For you and you alone
That's all, that's all

I can only give you country walks in springtime
And a hand to hold when leaves begin to fall
And a love who's burning light
Will warm the winter night
That's all, that's all

There are those I am sure who have told you
They would give you the world for a toy
All I have are these arms to enfold you
And a love even time can't destroy

If you're wondering what I'm asking in return dear
You'll be glad to know that my demands are small
Say it's me that you'll adore
For now and evermore
That's all, that's all
