Top Dickey Lee, Ashes Of Love

Ashes of love cold as ice you made the debt I'll pay the price
Our love is gone there's no doubt ashes of love the flames burned out
[ steel ]
The love light that shines in your eyes has gone out to my surprise
We said goodbye my heart bled I can't revive your love is dead
Ashes of love...
[ steel - fiddle ]
I trusted dear our love would stand your every wish was my command
My heart tells me I must forget I loved you then I love you yet
Ashes of love...

Top Dickey Lee, If She Just Helps Me Get Over You

IF SHE JUST HELPS ME (GET OVER YOU)
WRITERS DON WILLIAMS, ALLEN REYNOLDS
It may not make me tremble,
The soft touch of her hand
But she won't break my heart
The way you do
So I'm gonna try to give her
The best love that I can
If she just helps me get over you.
If she just picks me up when I get down
If she's there when the memories
Walk around
Maybe someday
I'll love her
As much as I love you
If she just helps me get over you.
I don't suppose that lovin'
Will ever be the same
But she wants me
The way I wanted you
So I'm gonna try to give her
The best love that I can
If she just helps me get over you.
If she just picks me up when I get down
If she's there when the memories
Walk around
Maybe someday
I'll love her
As much as I love you

Top Dickey Lee, If Love Gets There Before I Do

IF LOVE GETS THERE BEFORE I DO
WRITERS DICKEY LEE, KERRY CHATER
RECORDED BY DON WILLIAMS
Another twenty miles and I'm halfway there,
Another twenty miles and I'm running scared
It's a beautiful night and I should be there
I know you are tired of waiting
And I know you are tired of hesitating
If love gets there before I do,
Darling don't you take it.
If love gets there before I do,
Darling don' t you do it, no don't you do it
I know you're hearing line from those other guys
Trying to wear you down under starry sky
But you know that I want you to just hold on
I know you are tired of waiting
And I know you are tired of hesitating
If love gets there before I do,
Darling don't you take it.
If love gets there before I do,

Top Dickey Lee, I've Just Seen A Face

I've just seen a face I can't forget the time or place that we'd just met
She's just the girl for me and I want all the world to see we'd met uh uh uh uh uh
Had it been another day I might have looked the other way I had never been aware
And as it is I dream of her tonight na na na na na na
Falling yes I'm falling and she keeps calling me back again
Falling yes I'm falling and she keeps calling me back again
[ guitar ]
Had it been another day I might have looked the other way I had never been aware
And as it is I dream of her tonight na na na na na na
I have never known the likes of this I've been alone
And I have missed things and kept out of sight
But other girls were never quite like this la la la la la la
Falling yes I'm falling...

Top Dickey Lee, I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

Hear that lonesome whippoorwill he sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low I'm so lonesome I could cry
I've never seen a night so long when time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind a cloud to hide its face and cry
[ steel ]
Did you ever see a robin weep when leaves began to die
That 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

Top Dickey Lee, I'll Be Leaving Alone

Yes I'll buy you a drink if you'd like me to I might even dance a slow one with you
Lord knows you're a looker and honey what's more
It's not hard to see what you're looking for
You're as tempting a woman as I've ever seen
But there's someone in Tulsa who's trusting in me
She's the mother of my children I'm the rock she leans on
So thank you but no thank you I'll be leaving alone
[ steel ]
As we dance in the shadows you're holding me tight
I can feel the invitation I see in your eyes
And the soft light and the music and the wine's rosey glow
Ain't making it easy for me to say no
Cause you're as tempting a woman...

Top Dickey Lee, I Use The Soap

I use the soup to wash the dirt off my face
I'll write with pencil so then I can't erase
But what's to do when someone's taking my place with you with you
I know to stop when the light turns to red and when it rains I know to cover my head
But what's to do when I wished I were dead over you over you over you
La la la la la la la la la la la la let 'em to ride off tomorrow
La la la la la la la la la la la la hopin' to wash off the sorrow
I hope to find that the world was not there
It seems to me when I'm down you did not care
And my ambition vanished into thin air long with you with you

Top Dickey Lee, I Saw My Lady

I saw my lady walking by the river yesterday
She was picking flowers singin' songs of love along the way
Seeing her by moonlight tells me that her hair is shining yellow
Picking daisies nervously waiting by the river for her fellow
Think about her in my dreams see her through the misty scenes
All I know it really means I love her
Will she ever leave me she hasn't said she has somebody new
Or will she come and take my hand walk me down along the river too
[ steel ]
All I know it really means I love her
Will she ever leave me...
I saw my lady walking by the river yesterday

Top Dickey Lee, Catfish John

CATFISH JOHN
G C
CHORUS: Mama said don't go near that river
G D
don't be hanging round ole Catfish John
G C
Come the mornin' I'd always be there,
G D G
walking in his footsteps in the sweet delta dawn
G C G C G
V1: Take me back to another home to a time so long ago

Still he never spoke in anger though his load was hard to bear

Top Dickey Lee, Busiest Memory In Town

You're with me from my first cup of coffee right up till the last beer goes down
You're on my mind so I can't sleep till morning you're the busiest mem'ry in town
Had a talk last night with your new love
But then he mentioned a few more you'd found
So we drank a toast to the next in line and the busiest mem'ry in town
Babe sometimes you simply amaze me
With how fast you spread that heartache around
It must be hello I love you I'm leaving you're the busiest mem'ry in town
[ steel ]
Babe sometimes you simply...

Top Dickey Lee, Ballad Of A Teenage Queen

(Dream on dream on teenage queen pretties girl we've ever seen)
There's a story in our town of the prettiest girl around
Golden hair and eyes of blue how those eyes could flash at you
(How those eyes could flash at you)
Boys hung round her by the score but she loved the boy next door
Who worked at the candy store
(Dream on dream on teenage queen prettiest girl we've ever seen)
She was tops in all they said it never once went to her head
She had everything it seemed not a care this teenage queen
(Not a care this teenage queen)
Other boys could offer more but she loved the boy next door
Who worked at the candy store
(Dream on dream on teenage queen you should be a movie queen)
He would marry her next spring saved his money bought a ring
Then one day a movie scout came to town to take her out
(Came to town to take her out)
Hollywood could offer more so she left the boy next door working at the candy store
(Dream on dream on teenage queen see you on the movie screen)
Very soon she was a star pretty house and shiny car
Swimming pool and a fence around but she missed her old hometown
(But she missed her old hometown)
All the world was at her door all except the boy next door
Who worked at the candy store
(Dream on dream on teenage queen saddest girl we've ever seen)
Then one day the teenage star sold her house and all her cars
Gave up all her wealth and fame left it all and caught a train
(Left it all and caught a train)
Do I have to tell you more she came back to the boy next door
Who worked at the candy store

Top Dickey Lee, Baby Bye Bye

Bye bye baby bye bye I won't try to even say why
No use to sit and just cry this time baby it's baby bye bye
I walk the floor and wonder about you every day
Never know what you're gonna do next or what you're gonna say
I don't think your love for me is true
For you couldn't do what you've been puttin' me through
So bye bye baby bye bye...
[ steel ]
You don't understand anything I've ever said
Cause you act like our love life is something you're at
I can't seem to get inside to you so there's just one thing left for me to do
Bye bye baby bye bye...

Top Dickey Lee, Kingdom I Call Home

I don't have a gold mine in Alaska and this won't be the year I fly to Rome
I don't have oilwells in Oklahoma oh but I have a kingdom I call home
I don't have an army in my kingdom but I don't have to fight my wars alone
The love of my woman's all I need to help me rule the kingdom I call home
Though the Queen of the castle wears a plain cotton dress
And the little princess plays with paper dolls
While the keeper of the kingdom is rich in happiness
And the world is locked outside the palace walls
This world may never know I walk its valleys
And history won't carve my name in stone
But when my children are grown they'll remember
There was love in the kingdom I called home

Top Dickey Lee, Angels Roses And Rain

Last night my little girl came to my bedroom I heard her whisper softly from the door
Daddy I can't sleep cause I miss mama does mama miss me like she did before
I took her in my arms and then I told her darling your mama misses you the same
But little girls and daddys cry with teardrops angels cry with roses and with rain
Angels cry roses and rain angels don't know any pain
So darling when you hear your mama's name think of angels roses and rain and rain
Angels roses and rain
[ steel ]
This morning she was playing in the kitchen then she took her doll and went outside
I watched her as she walked among the roses I saw a little sadness in her eyes
But then I heard a raindrop on the window and softly as the cloud that moved above
My little girl picked up her doll and whispered that's the way my mama sends her love
Angels cry roses and rain...

Top Dickey Lee, 9 999 999 Tears

Got nine million nine hundred ninety nine thousand nine hundred ninety nine tears to go
And then I don't know if I'll be over you
The sun didn't shine this morning it's been raining the whole day through
Suddenly without warning you found somebody new
That's when the first tear came falling from my eyes
I'm beginning to feel the pain seeing nothing but cloudy skies
Got nine million nine hundred...
Well I'll be over you
You're out tonight with your new love I'm far far from your mind
Trying to get over you love chould take a whole lifetime
I can't believe you could want anybody else so no one could take my place
At least that's what I keep telling myself as the tears fall down my face
Got nine million nine hundred...
I'll be over you
Got nine million nine hundred...

Top Dickey Lee, Don't Wanna Think About Paula

I thought that when we parted
I'd broken all the ties that bind
But it's been a long time since I've seen Paula
And I can't get her out of my mind
Wanna tell you now
I've got to lose my sorrow
I've got to think of tomorrow
'Cause I don't want to think about Paula anymore
We used to have some happy times
And that's what I can't forget
'Cause I keep seeing her smiling face
And I stay all upset
Can't you hear me now
I've got to lose my sorrow
Build a new dream for tomorrow
'Cause I don't want to think about Paula anymore
(Think about her any more)
I keep trying to make a start
I've got to mend this broken heart
But every time I make a gain
Someone has to speek her name
I don't care if the sun don't shine
Makes no difference to me
'Cause there ain't a thing that the weather can do
To end my misery
Can't you hear me now
I've got to lose my sorrow
I've got to think of tomorrow
'Cause I don't want to think about Paula anymore
Everybody now
I've got to lose my sorrow
I've got to think of tomorrow

Top Dickey Lee, Dickey Lee

Teen angel teen angel teen angel uh-huh
That fateful night the car was stalled upon the railroad track
I pulled you out and we were safe but you went running back
Teen Angel can you hear me teen angel can you see me
Are you somewhere up above and am I still your own true love
What was it you were looking for that took your life that night
They said they found my high school ring clutched in your fingers tight
Teen angel can you hear me...
Just sweet sixteen and now you're gone they've taken you away
I'll never kiss your lips again they buried you today
Teen angel can you hear me...

Top Dickey Lee, Let's Fall To Pieces Together

Pardon me you left your tears on the jukebox
and I'm afraid they got mixed up with mine
I don't mean to pry it's just that i noticed you, goin out of your mind
It look like we're two of a kind
Chorus
Let's fall to pieces together
why should we both fall apart
lets fall to pieces together
right here in eachother's arms
alone is much better together
when the worst is still yet to come
so lets share the rest of the tears that are left
from two hearts that just came undone
why should we go crazy alone
repeat chorus

Top Dickey Lee, Laurie (Strange Things Happen)

Last night at the dance I met Laurie,
So lovely and warm, an angel of a girl.
Last night I fell in love with Laurie -
Strange things happen in this world.
As I walked her home,
She said it was her birthday.
I pulled her close and said
"Will I see you anymore?"
Then suddenly she asked for my sweater
And said that she was very, very cold.
I kissed her goodnight
At her door and started home,
Then thought about my sweater
And went right back instead.
I knocked at her door and a man appeared.
I told why I'd come, then he said:
"You're wrong, son.
You weren't with my daughter.
How can you be so cruel
To come to me this way?
My Laurie left this world on her birthday -
She died a year ago today."
A strange force drew me to the graveyard.
I stood in the dark,
I saw the shadows wave,
And then I looked and saw my sweater
Lyin' there upon her grave.

Top Dickey Lee, You're The First Time I've Thought About Leaving

(dickey lee, kerry chater)
I've seen you smile more than I thought you would
And I smiled back a little more than I should
And lately at night while he's sound asleep
I'm thinking things that I shouldn't think
Chorus:
You're the first time I've thought about leaving
And I really don't know what I'll do
You're the first time I've thought about leaving him
I've never done known someone like you
Sometimes I wait when I really should go
Lord only knows what I do that for
When I get home and he holds me close
I try not to think what I'm thinking most
Repeat chorus

Top Dickey Lee, Memphis Beat

Down the Mississippi where the water gets muddy
Forty-four school where the kids don't study
Well they all hang around at the root of Beale Street
Oh that's where they hear that Memhpis Beat
I'm goin' to Memphis where the beat is tough Memphis I can't get enough
It makes you tremble and it makes you weak gets in your blood that Memphis Beat
Whoo they're hitchhikin' here from California ride on a Honda from Arizona
Houston Boston Kansas City New Orleans and a doo wa diddy
Oh I'm goin' to Memphis...
[ piano - guitar ]
Well people come a ridin' a walkin' a swimmin'

Ah then dance all night to that Memphis Beat
Oh I'm goin' to Memphis...
Oh come on now let's go to Memphis
Where the beat is tough I can't get enough

Top Dickey Lee, Little Bitty Tear

A little bitty tear let me down spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not to make a frown but a little bitty tear let me down
When you said you were leaving tomorrow that today was our last day
I said there'd be no sorrow that I'd laugh when you walked away
But a little bitty tear...
[ ac.guitar ]
I said I'd laugh when you left me full of funny as you went out the door
That I'd have another one a waiting I'd wave goodbye as you go
But a little bitty tear...
[ ac.guitar ]
Everything went like I planned it and I really put on quite a show
In my heart I felt I could stand it till you walked with your grip through the door
Then a little bitty tear...

Top Dickey Lee, Let Time Be Your Friend

I have walked through the shadow of your afternoon
Chasing the sundown of our love
Making believe I'm still the one on your mind
Hoping your thoughts will all be kind
So let time be your friend so let peace rule your mind
And be kind to yourself trusting the things you're hoping to find
Mhm mhm mhm mhm mhm mhm
Making believe I'm still the one on your mind...

Top Dickey Lee, Waiting For A Train

All around the water tank waitin' for a train
A thousand miles away from home sleeping in the rain
I walked up to the brakeman and give him a line of talk
He said if you've got money I'll see that you don't walk
I haven't got a nickel not one penny can I show
Get off get off you railroad bum and he slammed that boxcar door (yodel)
[ dobro ]
He put me off in Texas a place I dearly love
Wide open spaces all around me and the moon and stars up above
Well nobody seems to want me nor to lend me a helping hand
I'm on my way from Frisco going back to Dixie Land
Though my pocketbook is empty and my heart is full of pain

Top Dickey Lee, Tupelo County Jail

Why don't you write write write me a letter send that letter by mail
Send that letter in care of the Tupelo County jail
Why don't you send me the best of love dear there's no one to go my bail
Never seen a place so lonely as the Tupelo County jail
Send that letter full of kisses over these prison walls
Cause baby kisses on paper are better than no kisses at all
I hear the freight train pass my window callin' me to ride the rail
Ball and chain gonna keep me in the Tupelo County jail
[ steel ]

Top Dickey Lee, Travelin' Man

I'm a travelin' man made a lotta stops all over the world
And in every port out Omaha I at least got lovely girl
Got a pretty senorita waitin' for me down in old Mexico
If you're ever in Alaska stop and see my cute little Eskimo
Oh my sweet Fraulein down in Berlin town makes my heart start to yearn
And my China doll down in old Hong Kong waits for my return
Pretty Polynesian baby over the sea I remember the night
When we walked in the sands of Waikiki and I held you oh so tight
[ guitar ]
Oh my sweet Fraulein...

Top Dickey Lee, The Girl From Peyton Place

THE GIRL FROM PEYTON PLACE
There she goes
Her proudly upturned nose..
Just one mistake she made
But yet...
They won't let her forget.
There goes
The girl from Peyton Place
I'd be glad
To love her good or bad
To kiss her tears away
But then
Could I take the place of him?
Oh I love
The girl from Peyton Place.
Small town talk
Has branded her
She can't break away
From the path that goes
From Peyton Place
But I love her anyway.
Sad girl
Please let me in your world
You still have so much love to give.
And so much life to live.
Oh I love you
Girl from Peyton Place
I need you

Top Dickey Lee, Song Sung Blue

Song sung blue everybody knows one song sung blue every garden grows on
Me and you are subject to the blues now and then
But when you take the blues and make a song you sing 'em out again
You sing 'em out again
Song sung blue weeping like a willow song sung blue sleeping on my pillow
Funny thing but you can sing it with a cry in your voice
And before you know it get the feeling good you simply got no choice
[ steel ]
Me and you are subject to the blues now and then
But when you take the blues and make a song you sing 'em out again
Song sung blue weeping like a willow...

Top Dickey Lee, Smile As You Go By

If you can't love me till forever I'd never hold you and I won't cry
Leave me gently when it's over if you can't stop smile as you go by
I could love you like I found you with the sunshine in your eyes
I'd never wrap out the dreams around you if you can't stop smile as you go by
If it's forever let me feeling if it's not and still you're satified
Treat me gently when it's over if you can't stop smile as you go by
[ guitar ]

Top Dickey Lee, Wolverton Mountain

They say don't go on Wolverton Mountain if you're looking for a wife
Cause Clifton Clovers has a pretty young daughter
He's mighty handy with a gun and a knife
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey and Wolverton Mountain protects her there
The bears and the birds tell Clifton Clovers if a stranger should inter there
All of my dreams are on Wolverton Mountain I want his daughter for my wife
I'll take my chances and climb that mountain
Though Clifton Clovers he may take my life
Her tender lips..
I'm goin' go up on Wolverton Mountain it's too lonesome down here below
It's just not right to hide his daughter from the one who loves her so
Her tender lips...
I don't care about Clifton Clovers I'm gonna climb up on his mountain

Top Dickey Lee, Yours For Life

In this day and age world changes half and twice as fast
Sometimes I get wondering if anything will last
People changing partners like they change the clothes they wear
Maybe I'l old fashioned but darling I still care
And I'm yours for life come and be my lifetime
Came and take the love I have for only one
Yes I'm yours for life come and share my lifetime
Share the world until our day is done
First time that I saw your face I loved you where you stood
In your eyes the kindlyness told me you were good
Then I felt the feeling that I never felt before
Darling if I try and try I could not love you more
And I'm yours for life...
Sometimes I pray that you will always be the way you always are part of me
Cause if I lost you in the winds of change then I would cease to be

Top Dickey Lee, Weekends

Lights from the bedroom made halos of hair around her head
And later in silence she lay soft as silk on my bed
She whispered I love you then I placed a kiss on her cheek
And in moments her eyelashes covered her dark eyes in sleep
I lay there in silence as she lived in dreams of her own
Loving her so much the tears down my face warmly flowed
Her soft hair kissed my pillow and curled gold and brown on her cheek
My mind took a picture for a memory that I'd always keep
Saturday morning we laughed and we walked in the park
Having such good times that we lost today to the dark
Sunday came running her mother came promptly at three
Taking my daughter my pride and joy away from me
The week days are so lonely but on Fridays Lord my life begins
Cause I can't have her only on the weekends
Saturday morning we laughed...

Top Dickey Lee, You Make It Look So Easy

Old friends say that they seen you around they say that you're wearing a veil
You're out and around with the new friends you've found
If you're lonesome and no one could tell
You can stop to tell me that you're doing fine I smile but I'd rather not know
It hurts me to know how you're spendin' your time if you miss me it sure doesn't show
You make it look so easy Lord but no time it looks like you're free
You make it look so easy but it ain't been that easy for me
[ guitar ]
I suppose you've become quite a girl about town you're welcome wherever you go
And you seem so at home in the new world you've found but to me I just can't let go

Top Dickey Lee, Year That Clayton Delaney Died

Well I remember the year that Clayton Delaney died
They said for the last two weeks that he suffered and cried
It made a big impression on me although I was a barefoot kid
They said he got religion at the end and I'm glad that he did
Clayton was the best guitar picker in our town
I thought he was a hero and I used to follow Clayton around
I often wondered why Clayton who seemed so good to me
Never took his guitar and made it down in Tennessee
Daddy said he drank a lot but I could never understand
I knew he used to picked up in Ohio with a five piece band
Clayton used to tell me son you better put that old guitar away
There ain't no money in it it'll lead you to an early gray
I guess if I'd admit it Clayton taught me how to drink booze
I can see him half stoned pickin' up the Lovesick Blues
When Clayton died I made him a promise I was gonna carry on somehow
I'd give a hundred dollars if he could only see me now
I remember the year that Clayton Delaney died
Nobody ever knew it but I went out in the woods and I cried
Well I know there's a lotta big preachers that know a lot more than I do
But it could be that the good Lord likes a little picking too

Top Dickey Lee, Way To Go On

It matters not to you babe it matters not to me
Guess it's time the two of us set each other free
Don't it make you wonder babe if anything's for sure
I'd have said the love we have would always endure
And after all the time I've spent with you it's hard to break the habbit you'd become
So if I seem to be a little bit confused I'm just looking for a way to go on
[ steel ]
I left it up to you babe you left it up to me
Now there's nothing left to do but set each other free
And after all the time...
It matters not to you babe it matters not to me

Top Dickey Lee, The Day The Saw Mill Closed Down

THE DAY THE SAW MILL CLOSED DOWN
(Jerry Foster - Bill Rice)
Â« Â© '67 Universal PolyGram Int, ASCAP Â»
Her house on the corner of Cedar and Elm
Still stands in our town
But it's been empty since she moved away
The day that the saw mill closed down
We'd sit on her porch almost every night
I remember how happy we were
We'd grow up and marry I'd work at the mill
To make a living for her
Her father worked at the mill
Like most of the others in town
I lost my girl when he lost his job
The day that the saw mill closed down
She moved from the corner of Cedar and Elm
And I never saw her again
But I can still hear her mother's soft voice
Saying honey it's time to come in
No longer do mill hands live here
The giant saws don't make a sound
No longer does my love live here
Not since the saw mill closed down

Top Dickey Lee, That Heart Belongs To Me

There are so many flirty guys with flirty flirty ways
I am so afraid that they would steal you some day
Don't let 'em darling cause you belong to me
No don't ever let them make you think your heart is fancy free
Don't let 'em darling that heart belongs to me
The'll tell you that I trifle and that you should do the same
They'll tell you that they need your love so why not make the change
Don't do it darling that love belongs to me
Oh please don't let them blind you I still love you can't you see
Don't let 'em darling that heart belongs to me
[ steel ]
They'll offer you a mansion ask in to be their queen
So they can give you riches make your life a happy dream
Don't let 'em darling that dream belongs to me
Oh sure they'll try to buy your love with riches such as these
Don't let 'em darling that heart belongs to me

Top Dickey Lee, Tennessee Blues

If I've had my way I'd leave here today I'd leave in a hurry
I'd find me a place where I could stay and not have to worry
I'd find me a spot on some mountain top with no one around me
With valleys and streams and birds in the trees and lakes that surround me
A place I could use a place I could lose these Tennessee blues
[ piano-dobro ]
A place to forget all my regrets and keep just a right time
A place I could sleep with nothing but peace and feel free an all time
A place I could use a place I could lose these Tennessee blues

Top Dickey Lee, Tell Laura I Love Her

Tommy and Laura were lovers he wanted to give here everything
Flowers presents and most of all a wedding ring
He saw a sign for a stockcar race a thousand dollar prize it read
He couldn't get Laura on the phone so to her mother Tommy said
Tell Laura I love her tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura I may be late I've something to do that cannot wait
He drove his car to the racing ground he was the youngest driver there
The crowd roared as they started to race
Around the truck they drove at a deadly pace
No one knows what happened that day how his car overturned in flames
But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck
With his dying breath they heard him say
Tell Laura I love her tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry my love for her will never die
Now in the chapel Laura prays for her Tommy who passed away
It was just for Laura that he lived and died alone in the chapel she can hear him cry
Tell Laura I love her...

Top Dickey Lee, Teen Angel

Top Dickey Lee, Take Me Home Country Roads

Almost heaven West Virginia Blue Ridge Mountains Shenandoah River
Life is old there older than the trees younger than the mountains blowin' like a breeze
Country roads take me home to the place I belong
West Virginia mountain mama take me home country roads
All my mem'ries gather round her miner's lady stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty painted on the sky misty taste of moonshine teardrops in my eyes
Country roads take me home...
I hear her voice in the mornin' as she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Drivin' down the road I get a feelin' that I should have been
Home yesterday yesterday
Country roads take me home...

Top Dickey Lee, Special

The only thing I really own is what you see me wearing on my back
The only friends I've ever known are the kind you meet along a railroad track
The kind you bum tabacco from and see the world through a boxcar door
A friend who talks and makes you laugh has nothing much but gives you half
And maybe you don't see him anymore
Special I hear your lonesome whistle whine
Special keep moving me on down the line
[ steel ]
My mackinaw's full of holes and ain't too good at keeping out the cold
My shoes are worn as paper thin my feet can feel the cibders through the soles
Sometimes I see a pretty girl wonder what I've missed along the way
Once someone special wore my ring loved me more than anything
I gave her up and caught a train one day
Special I had a special girl on time Special keep moving me on down the line

Top Dickey Lee, Sparkling Brown Eyes

There's a ramshackle shack in old Caroline it's calling me back to the girl of mine
Those two brown eyes I'm longing to see oh the girl of my dreams she'll always be
[ fiddle - steel ]
Those two brown eyes that sparkle with love came down to me from heaven above
If I had the wings of a beautiful dove I'd fly to the arms of the one that I love

Top Dickey Lee, Sleep Walkin' Blues

I just stepped in a puddle and I sank up to my neck
I can't see the traffic light I'll get run over yet
It cost me thirteen tokens to find my way back home
By then you'd shut the water off and taken out my phone
Since you've given me those sleep walkin' blues
You've given me those sleep walkin' blues blues blues
I don't know if I'll wake up from this dream of you
You've given me those sleep walkin' blues
I shoot out my doormat in the middle of my bed
My life is undernourished cause my heart is underfed
My days are rambling nightmares my nights are even worse
Cause I can't find a way to get myself back down to earth
Since you've given me...
[ dobro ]
I put on Waylon Jennings but I could not hear a sound
Yet all my neighbors yellin' turn that country music down
I picked up my guitar to try to ease my mind
But the notes stopped to my fingers and the words they would not rhyme
Since you've given me...
I don't know if I'll wake up from this dream of you

Top Dickey Lee, She Thinks I Still Care

(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
Well 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 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 she thinks I still care

Top Dickey Lee, Roses Are Red (my Love)

(Roses are red my love)
A long long time ago on graduation day
You handed me your book I signed this way
Roses are red my love violets are blue
Sugar is sweet my love but not as sweet as you
We dated through high school and when the big day came
I wrote into your book next to my name
Roses are red my love...
Then I went far away and you found someone new
I read your letter dear and I wrote back to you
Roses are red my love violets are blue
Sugar is sweet my love good luck may God bless you
Is that your little girl she looks a lot like you
Some day some boy will write in her book too

Top Dickey Lee, Rocky

Alone until my eighteenth year, we met four springs ago
She was shy and had a fear, of things she did not know
But we got it on together in such a super way
We held each other close at night, and traded dreams each day
She said Rocky I've never been in love before, don't know if I can do it
But if you let me lean on you take my hand I might get through it, through it
I said baby, oh sweet baby it's love that sets us free
And God knows if the world should end your love is safe with me
We found an old grey house, and you would not believe the way
We worked at night to fix it up, took classes in the day
Painting walls and sipping wine, sleeping on the floor
With so much love with just too, soon we found there'd be one more
And she said Rocky I've never had a baby before, don't know if I can do it
But if you let me lean on you, take my hand I might get through it, through it
I said baby, oh sweet baby it's love that sets us free,
and God knows if the word should end your love is save with me.
We had lots of problems then, but we had lots of fun
Like the birthday party, when our baby girl turned one
I was proud and satisfied, life had so much to give
Till the day they told me that she didn't have long to live
She said Rocky I never had to die before don't know if I can do it
Now it's back to two again my little girl and I
Who looks so much like her sweet mother, sometimes that makes me cry
I sleep alone at nights again, I walk alone each day
And sometimes when I'm about to give in, I hear her sweet voice say to me
Rocky you know you've been alone before, you know you can do it
But if you'd like to lean on me, take my hand I'll help you through it, through it.
I said baby, oh sweet baby it's love that sets us free
And God knows if the world should end, your love is safe with me

Top Dickey Lee, Patches

Down by the river that flows by the coal yard's stand
Wooden houses with shutters torn down
There lives a girl everybody calls Patches
Patches my darling of old Shantytown
We planned to marry when June brought the summer
I couldn?t wait to make Patches my bride
Now I don?t see how that ever can happen
My folks say no and my heart breaks inside
Patches oh what can I do?
I swear, I?ll always love you
But a girl from that place would just bring me disgrace
So my folks won?t let me love you
Each night I cry as I think of that Shanty and pretty patches
There watching the door
She doesn?t know that I can?t come to see her
Patches must think that I love her no more
I hear a neighbor telling my father
He says, a girl name of Patches was found floating face down
In that dirty old river that flows by the coal yards
In old Shantytown
Patches oh what can I do?
I swear, I?ll always love you
It may not be right but I?ll join you tonight

Top Dickey Lee, On The Southbound

Well I woke up this morning when the cold Chicago wind
Blew my newspaper blanket off my back
Through my dirty broken window the grey sun filtered in
As I dreamed about the Southbound railroad track
I could almost hear the crickets in a sleepy cottonfield
As daddy drove our vagon to Virgin
But today I'd give a fortune for a twenty five cent meal
And I wish I was a country boy again
So let me ride on the Southbound
Back to where I came from I don't care or where I am
Let me ride on the Southbound and put me off somewhere near Birmingham
[ guitar ]
What happened to my vision of a mansion on a hill
And the fame and fortune I came here to win
I've got nothing but the roaches running cross my window sill
And I wish I was a country boy again

Top Dickey Lee, On Susan's Floor

Didn't feel so cold and tired stretched out before the fire
Rolling smokes and drinking up her wine
And I remember candle light and singin' till we couldn't sing no more
Then falling warm asleep on Susan's floor
Now that my song is sweeter Lord I'd like to greet her
And thank her for the flavors that she gave
A stranger I came my head bowed in the rain to her door
I sat and sang my songs on Susan's floor
In the morning I'd go on buying kingdoms with my songs
Knowing I'd be back in just a while healing in the sunshine of her smile
Well lots of times and songs have passed I catch myself just looking back
Reliving all the wonder of those nights
That's where I'd be today if I had only stay one night more
And sang another song on Susan's floor
Like crippled ships that made it through storm and finally reached a quiet shore
