Why Baby Why lyrics - Charley Pride

Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why

You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby cry

Well, I got a crow I wanna pick with you

Just like last time when the feathers flew

You're runnin' wild a-kickin' up your heels

A-leavin' me home with a hand full of bills

I can't live without you and you know it's true

But there's no livin' with you so what'll I do

I'm goin' honky tonkin', getting' tight as I can

And maybe by then you'll 'preciate a good man

Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why

You made me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby cry 

I can't live without you till the day that I die

Girl, now I don't know, but I've heard say

That ever' little dog is a-gonna have his day

You'd better pay attention, don't you dare forget

'Cause I'm just a little bitty puppy yet

I caught you honky tonkin' with my best friend

The thing to do was leave you, but I should'a left then

Now I'm too old to leave you, but I still get sore

When you come home a-feelin' for the knob on the door

Well, tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why

You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby cry

I live without you 'til the day that I die

So tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby why...

Tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby why...

I Don't Think She's In Love Anymore lyrics - Charley Pride

Well, I came in late again last night

Really, it was this morning

I had my alibi down pat

I was gonna be charming

But the locks were all changed

I was stuck outside

With a key that no longer fit

There was a note on the door

That said, adios, sayonara

Goodbye, this is it

I don't think she's in love anymore

She's hanging up her telephone

And locking her door

I don't think she wants to

Hear anymore of my lying

I don't think she's in love anymore

She's not buying my lies like before

The only thing she wants

Out of me now is goodbye

So I went down to a phone booth

Almost down to crying

All ready to spill the truth

I see she's tired of my lying

Well, I was all ready to beg and plead

And to turn over a brand new leaf

But the second she heard

It was me on the line

I heard click, she hung up on me

I don't think she's in love anymore

She's hanging up her telephone

And locking her door

I don't think she wants to

Hear anymore of my lying

I don't think she's in love anymore

She's not buying my lies like before

The only thing she wants

Out of me now is goodbye

I don't think she's in love anymore

She's hanging up her telephone

And locking the door

I don't think she wants to

Hear anymore of my

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah

I don't think she's in love anymore

She's not buying my lies like before

The only thing she wants

Out of me now is goodbye

You're So Good When You're Bad lyrics - Charley Pride

You're a lady, you're an angel, 

Bringin' sunshine to my life.

You're closest thing Heaven that I've ever had.

Oh, but sometimes, you're a devil,

When you reach out and dim the lights,

An' I say, mmm mmm, you're so good when you're bad.

You would never hurt anybody,

You're too gentle sweet and kind,

Still I keep on doin' things that make you sad.

But you don't hold out on your feelin's,

When there's lovin' on your mind.

An' I say, mmm mmm, you're so good when you're bad.

I could say that you're the perfect woman,

And if it's not, it's just because of me.

'Cause I'm hung up on the perfect woman,

An' I don't know how I deserve to be.

I see other pretty women,

An' Lord, they still, they look good to me.

An' there are some ladies that can drive some men mad.

But when an angel let's her hair down,

Oh, that's something else to see.

An' I say, mmm mmm, you're so good when you're bad.

An' I say, mmm mmm, you're so good when you're bad.

Roll On Mississippi lyrics - Charley Pride

Walking along, whistling a song,

Barefoot and fancy free,

A big riverboat, passing us by, she's headed for New Orleans

There she goes, disappearing around the bend.

Roll on Mississippi; you make me feel like a child again.

A cool river breeze, like peppermint leaves,

The taste of it takes me back,

Chewin on a straw, torn overalls,

A cane pole and old straw hat and muddy river.

Just like a long lost friend.

Roll on Mississippi; you make me feel like a child again

Roll on Mississippi, big river roll.

You're the childhood dream that I grew up on.

Roll on Mississippi, carry me home.

Now I can see I've been away too long.

Roll on, Mississippi, roll on.

Now, when the world's spinning round, too fast for me,

And I need a place to dream.

So I come to your banks, I sit in your shade

Relive the memories

Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn

Roll on Mississippi; you make me feel like a child again

Roll on Mississippi, Big river roll

You're the childhood dream that I grew up on.

Roll on Mississippi, carry me home.

Now I can see I've been away too long.

Roll on, Mississippi, roll on, Mississippi,

Roll on, Mississippi, roll on

Roll on, Mississippi, roll on 

Roll on, Mississippi, roll on

You Almost Slipped My Mind lyrics - Charley Pride

She walked right up to me and took me by the hand

An angel who could please most any man

She said to me, I'm free and you're just my kind

And for a moment you almost slipped my mind

Almost, you almost slipped my mind

I could taste, taste her kisses in the wine

But your memory came and found me just in time

But for a moment you almost slipped my mind

Now I can see how sometimes a man can be so blind

Let himself be led astray become the cheating kind

I'd found myself falling for that same old line

Yes, for a moment you almost slipped my mind

Yes, for a moment you almost slipped my mind

There's A Little Bit Of Hank In Me lyrics - Charley Pride

Well Hank I never met you but I sure heard you sing

At a little bitty port down in Mississippi you filled my heart with dreams

I got an old guitar and I learned how to sing as you did the Lovesick Blues

So Hank if you're listenin' there's one just for you

There's a little bit of Hank in me

Cause I caught it in my voice of the radio '53

And I've done your songs in the cotton fields and on coast to coast TV

And every time I sing Kaw-Liga there's a little bit of Hank in me

Well I'll bet I've done Your Cheatin' Heart at least a million times

And Hank you're still the jukebox king from LA to Caroline

No music has no boundary it comes from the heart

And where my music comes from Hank you play the leading part

There's a little bit of Hank in me...

And every time I sing Kaw-Liga there's a little bit of Hank in me

My Son Calls Another Man Daddy lyrics - Charley Pride

Tonight my head is bowed in sorrow I can't keep the tears from my eyes

My son calls another man daddy the right to his love I've been denied

My son calls another man daddy he'll never know my name nor my face

God only knows how it hurts me for another to be in my place

Each night I lay there in prison I pictured a future so bright

For he was my one ray of sunshine that shone through the darkness of night

Today his mother shares a new love she just couldn't stand my disgrace

My son calls another man daddy...

For another to be in my place
