Along The Mississippi lyrics - Charley Pride

When we were young along the Mississippi life was never lonely way back then

We'd need each other down along the dirt road

And go for walk so along the river bend

I bought some ground along the Mississippi and told you of my plans that lay ahead

But you were dreaming all about big city and far off places in the books you read

Now when leaves fall down along the Mississippi I look back north into the chilly wind

I wait and watch for you along the dirt road and wonder if you're coming back again

I built a house along the Mississippi and longing for the day when we would wed

I waited for you down along the dirt road but far off places won your heart instead

Now when leaves fall down ...

And wonder if you're coming back again

Happiest Song On The Jukebox lyrics - Charley pride

Play the happiest song on the jukebox cause that's the way I'm feeling tonight

Play the happiest song and I'll be headin' home

To an angel waitin' there to hold me tight

I used to think this barroom had become my second home

But now it's just a place to come relax

So here's some dimes for this time play a different kind of song

Bring one more round then I'll be making tracks

Play the happiest song...

She doesn't try to change the way that I've been in the past

She loves me just for what I am today

Now I seen much more to life than just the bottom of a glass

Just thought I'd stop and celebrate this way

Play the happiest song...

To an angel waitin' there to hold me tight

Shelter Of Your Eyes lyrics - Charley Pride

In the shelter of your eyes I have finally learned my song

It took so long to realize I just can't make it all alone

Words're only what they say but this feeling isn't wrong

Now I'm so glad I found the way it's good to be where I belong

And I'm gonna stay right here cause I'm in rhythm with your mind

Tune out the world and rest my head neath the shelter of your eyes

Words're only what they say...

I'm Learning To Love Her lyrics - Charley Pride

Last night I walked down that little country lane

And a million memories ran through my mind

Where I used to walk with you now I walk with someone new

And I'm learning to love her with time

Yes I'm learning to love her cause you've gone and found another

It's the only way I know to ease my mind

She's not you but she loves me and I know she'll stay with me

And I'm learning to love her with time

Well over there that old oak tree where you gave your love to me

It was here you said I'll love you for all time

But tonight she's here with me and she loves the hurt away

And I'm learning to love her with time

Yes I'm learning to love her...

Yes I'm learning to love her with time

Don't Fight The Feelings Of Love lyrics - Charley Pride

Don'tcha don'tcha don'tcha fight the feelings of love

Cause love is something nobody ever gets enough of

So reach out your hand take in all the sunshine from above

Well now love is believing so don't fight the feelings don't fight the feelings of love

A boy and a girl in a big spinning world upside down in love from the start

Sunny days and laughing skies true love in both their eyes

Spending happy good times in the park

Learning all about living taking and the giving love is growing stronger every day

Well now there'll never be another cause they're trusting each other

Good love seems to just work out that way

I said now don'tcha...

Don't fight the feelings don't fight the feelings don't fight the feelings of love

Just To Be Loved By You lyrics - Charley Pride

Yes it's true that I've known other but I didn't know back then

A man could ever want the way I do

And the life I used to lead was before I found the need just to be loved by you

Ever since the day I found you I have felt deep down inside

I just been marking time my whole life through

And what life there's left to live darling I would gladly give just to be loved by you

I would climb the highest mountain and swim the deepest sea

Oh there's nothing in this world I wouldn't do

If it brought you happiness I'd give all that I possess just to be loved by you

Just to be loved by you

Tennessee Girl lyrics - Charley Pride

Well I left home at a crack of dawn just about a year ago

I thumbed my way cross the USA and I learned a lot I didn't know

The Primised Land that I thought I'd find was always just ahead of me

Until one day when I realized I left it back in Tennessee

And that's why I'm going back to my Tennessee girl and a Tennessee way of life

And I'm gonna ask my Tennessee girl to be my Tennessee wife

Tonight I slept in a hobo camp workin' out like dog by day

I never got enough to get ahead just enough to make my way

Cold and tired when the evening come all I had to ease my mind

Was thinkin' bout the place I started from and the girl that I left behind

And that's why I'm going back...

There ain't no place that I been at all that I would gonna settle in

And every town that I travel through made me wanna go home again

The green green grass and the rollin' hills seem to keep a callin' me

Back to the place where I was born and the girl that I long to see

And that's why I'm going back...

I'm going back...

Love Unending lyrics - Charley Pride

Love unending love undying love that never grows cold

Love that never leaves you crying love that never grows old

That's what I'd give to you if you say that you love me too

That's what I'd give to you all the days of my life

Love for loving love for living love that has no pride

Love that's tender and forgiving soft and warm inside

That's what I'd give to you...

I'd give you everything that's mine to give

I'd give you more than this a reason to live

Love unending love undying...

All the days of my life all the days of my life

Shoulder To Cry On lyrics - Charley Pride

I came here because I knew I'd be welcome

And because somehow you always understand

You seem to have a way with lonely people

And you always were my greatest helping hand

Now once again I'm here to take advantage

Though I don't deserve the arms I left alone

I need to know there's someone who still loves me and I need a shoulder to cry on

I overlooked the love you tried so hard to give the love I never seemed to understand

I always stay just long enough to hurt you and what little love I gave was second hand

Now once again I'm here to take advantage cause once again I love is gone

I need to know there's someone who still loves me and I need a shoulder to cry on

Yes I need to know there's someone who still loves me and I need a shoulder to cry on

Too Weak To Let You Go lyrics - Charley Pride

I was on the rebound from a broken love affair

When I first thought of glimps of her in you

And though you never measured up to what she meant to me

I couldn't find the words to tell you so

Cause I'm not strong enough to leave you and too weak to let you go

You give me precious love to hold on to

But somehow deep inside I've got a feeling that you know

I'm not strong enough to leave you and too weak to let you go

Never once did you hold back the love you had for me

I guess you thought my love for you would grow

But women have a funny way of seeing through a man

But if you knew you never told me so

Cause I'm not strong enough...

No I'm not strong enough to leave you and too weak to let you go

She's Too Good To Be True lyrics - Charley Pride

Sometimes late at night I wake up dreaming

I reach and feel for her she's too good to be true

Then I touch the sleeping softness of my angel

And half asleep she turns to whisper I love you

Cause she's just too good to be true but she is

And in my arms she reassures me with a kiss

She's everything I ever looked for in a woman

She's just too good to be true but she is

Each day I go to work is like forever till that evening sun will bring me home again

But then she's a waitin' at the door with her sweet lovin'

And tonight she'll be so good to me again

Cause she's just too good...

She's just too good to be true but she is

She's That Kind lyrics - Charley Pride

She can take the morning rain falling on my window pane

And turn it into sunshine in my mind

And she can take the darkest night and brighten it with a love sweet light

And I'm satisfied just knowing she's that kind

And I can feel so down and out but she knows what it's all about

And she can help me leave it all behind

There's something in the way she smiles that seems to brighten all my trials

It's good to know my woman is that kind

She's that kind that I'm thankful to the Lord above

For sending me that kind of woman for me to love

If I could live another life and I could choose another wife

I wouldn't change a thing cause she's that kind

She's that kind that I'm thankful...

No I wouldn't change a thing cause she's that kind

You Were All The Good In Me lyrics - Charley Pride

Before there ever came the time that I could realize

That you've meant all the world to me

You turned and I was gone to find the good life I've been missin'

But you were all the good there was in me

I went from bad to worse and back to find the good time

But it took the time like this to make me see

I searched high and low to just to find my reason

But you were all the good there ever was in me

It's sad to think that much too late I've come to understand

That all the world was laying at my feet

I kicked aside the love that means much more than life just now

And you were all the good there was in me

I went from bad to worse...

Yes you were all the good there ever was in me

Give A Lonely Heart A Home lyrics - Charley Pride

Well could that look I see on you mean that you might be lonely too

Well you don't have to feel so bad you're not the only one that's sad

Just look at all the hearts in town you're looking for the lost and found

For someone special just like you might come along and give a lonely heart a home

Just give a lonely heart a home one it can call its very own

And you can have true love from this moment on just give a lonely heart a home

Well just look close and you might find the saddest heart in town is mine

And should we give true love a try our hearts just might see eye to eye

So if you're looking for a way to do your good deed for today

The one thing you could do and not go wrong is give a lonely heart a home

So just give a lonely heart a home...

Good Hearted Woman lyrics - Charley Pride

(originally by Waylon Jennings)

A long time forgotten are dreams that just fell by the way

And the good life he promised ain't what she's living today

But she never complains of the bad times or the bad things he's done Lord

She just talks about the good times they've had and all the good times to come

Cause she's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man

And she loves him in spite of his ways that she don't understand

Well now through teardrops and laughter

They'll pass through this world hand in hand Lord

Cause she's a good hearted woman loving her good timin' man

He likes the night life the bright lights and good timin' friends

And when the party's over she'll welcome him back home again

Lord knows she don't understand him but she does the best that she can

Cause she's a good hearted woman she loves her good timin' man

Yes she's a good hearted woman...

Yes she's a good hearted woman she loves her good timin' man

I Love You More In Memory lyrics - Charley Pride

Just outside my window there's a sound that I can't stand

The cold night rain is falling and the crying lonesome wind

It's telling me you're gone and he's with you now tonight

But I still love you more in memory than he can holding you tight

There were times when you were happy but just for a while

Then a hunger for his love came and took away your smile

While you're in his arms you'll be in my dreams tonight

But I still love you more in memory than he can holding you tight

You know I loved you and I know how hard you'd try

But there's a part of you I never could satisfy

So I'm losing your sweet love oh just a little more each night

But I still love you more in memory than he can holding you tight

But I still love you more in memory than he can holding you tight

My Love Is Deep My Love Is Wide lyrics - Charley Pride

My love is deep my love is wide you can't see across to the other side

My love is deep my love is wide

I've got too much love for you for me too hard to hide

People say I'm not the man not they used to know

Something made a change come over me

And when I feel such happiness I guess it's gotta show

Cause I'm a happy man that's plain to see

Cause baby my love is deep...

When I'm gone the only thing I think about is you

And all your sweet love that you give to me

And you're a part of every single thing I ever do

And that's the way it's always gonna be

Cause baby my love is deep...

I've got too much love for you for me too hard to hide

I'm Building Bridges lyrics - Charley Pride

I've been working every day since you've been gone

Ending the road that our love once traveled on

And I'll have you back when I am through

Cause I'm building bridges that will take me back to you

Little things to show my love for you I'll find

And I'll send them with flowers to keep me on your mind

To be with you there is nothing I won't do

Cause I'm building bridges that will take me back to you

I'll have you back just as sure as tomorrow will come

Spanning the canyons between us till I cross overy one

Cause I'm building bridges that will take me back to you

I'll be sunshine when the dark clouds fill your sky

I'll be food when you're hungry and water when you're dry

And I'll have you back when I am through

Cause I'm building bridges that will take me back to you

Cause I'm building bridges that will take me back to you

Sunshiny Day lyrics - Charley Pride

If I wake up in the morning when I look outside it's storming

And it seems the world is covered by clouds of grey

I don't really mind the weather baby long as we're together

In my heart it's a gonna be a sunshiny day

I don't ever pay attention about the weatherman may mention

I don't even care about what he's got to say

I surely care now if it showers when you got a love like ours

Every day is a gonna be a sunshiny day

And I'll have a sunshine day every day that I live

The sweet love that you give will make it shine

And I'll I have a sunshiny day in my heart from now on just as long as you are mine

So let the howlin' wind start blowin' let the raindrops keep on flowin'

Everytime they touch my face just kiss them away

Even with the clouds above me long as I've got you to love me

Every day is a gonna be a sunshiny day

And I'll have a sunshiny day...

So let the howlin' wind start blowin' let the raindrops keep on flowin'

Every day is a gonna be a sunshiny day yes every day is a gonna be a sunshiny day

When The Trains Come In lyrics - Charley Pride

Another lonely day is almost gone the sun's going down again and you're still not home

The last of the trains have all come in but I'll come back tomorrow and wait again

I know the conductor he thinks I'm losing my mind

Cause I come here and wait so many times

But me and the ticketman are the best of friends

So I'll come back tomorrow when the trains come in

It's been so long ago since she went away

She said she'd return again in a couple of days

But I'll wait here forever if it takes till then

So I'll come back tomorrow when the trains come in

I know the conductor...

Yes I'll come back tomorrow when the trains come in

You're Wanting Me To Stop Loving You lyrics - Charley Pride

I have done everything I can to please you

And the price I paid for loving you was high

And for you I would been over backwards just to keep you satisfied

Now you say that you would like to ask a favor and I just can't believe that it's true

But I'm afraid that this is one time I can't help you

Cause you're wanting me to stop loving you

I have tried all I know to make you happy

And you know your every wish is my command

Now today you say that it's all over and I just don't understand

Now you say that you would like...

Back To The Country Roads lyrics - Charley Pride

I can see the sadness in your eyes knowing that I'm going to leave

If I told you the reason you'd never understand cause the truth you never could see

So I'm goin' back to the country roads back where the tall corn grows

Back where the stream is running free

Back where the air is clear back where I can hear the whippoorwills sing me to sleep

I've enjoyed the sweetness of your smile

And your soft touch that warms me when I'm cold

If you want me you can find me look down that country road

I'll be walking and looking for my soul

So I'm goin' back...

The whippoorwills sing me to sleep

Put Back My Ring On Your Hand lyrics - Charley Pride

I had the world in my hand when you were in my arms

And our love seems to grow everyday

Then like a fool I wasn't true brought shame and hurt to you

Now the time has come for me to pay

Now the whole world is empty without you you're my life my dreams and my plans

I'll do anything to make it up to you and put back my ring on your hand

There was a time I made you cry each time you said goodbye

And walked away leaving me all alone

I broke your heart hurt your pride and now you're not here by my side

Now I see I've done the same thing to me

Now the whole world is empty...

It's Gonna Take A Little Bit Longer lyrics - Charley Pride

Baby it's gonna take a little bit longer for me to ever get you off of my mind

Baby it's gonna take a little bit longer cause I've been lovin' you a long long time

People try to tell me that it won't be long till I won't even miss you anymore

But I can tell them it must be something mighty wrong every day I want you even more

And baby it's gonna take...

They say this lonely feeling it'll go away but after all this time now it ain't gone

Every weaken moment and every night and day just seems to keep on keeping on

And baby it's gonna take...

Yes I've been lovin' you a long long time

Seven Years With A Wonderful Woman lyrics - Charley Pride

Tonight as I lie here I'm sleepless any thoughts are flooding my mind

They're thoughts of peace and not trouble peace of a wonderful kind

Peace that I have a good woman a woman whom I adore

Tonight is our anniversary we were wed seven years ago

Seven years with a wonderful woman seven years with a love that won't end

Seven years with a wonderful woman will inspire any poor man

The moon sends its beams through our window they dance on your angel like face

They tell me you're God's gift from heaven a gift of his wonderful grace

I'll just slip out of bed while you sleep dear and bow with my knees to the floor

To thank God for seven years with you and to pray for seventy more

Seven years with a wonderful woman...

She's Helping Me Get Over You lyrics - Charley Pride

I've told her all about you when I met her

So she understands what I'm going through

She knows when I forget you I can love her

And that's why she's helping me get over you

Lord knows she never makes my heart stop beating

Or tears me all to pieces like you do

But she does everything she can to make me happy

And that's how she's helping me get over you

She knows that we still spend sometime together

And she's waiting just the way I asked her to

Everyday she ceases your mem'ry growing weaker

And right now she's helping me get over you

Lord knows she never makes...

And right now she's helping me get over you

Nothin' Left But Leavin' lyrics - Charley Pride

Tonight it's so cold the rain is fallin' but it's still not as cold as your love for me

That's why I'm walking down this highway and a diesel going my way

Will take me far from you and you'll be free

There was nothin' left but leavin' for us in Tulsa

But then again the same was throughout in LA

Seems like trouble always finds us so I broke the tie that binds us

There was nothin' left but leavin' anyway

We tried to find our dreams in New Mexico

But the answers just weren't there in Santa Fe

And we could blame it all on Texas but the problem now we fuss is

We never had what we thought anyway

There was nothin' left but leavin' any longer

And I finally found the strenght to walk away

Tell the kids their daddy loves them they'll understand I'm thinkin' of them

There was nothin' left but leavin' anyway there was nothin' left but leavin' anyway

You'll Still Be The One lyrics - Charley Pride

When other arms have held me close and new lips softly called my name

With all our goodbye's said and done you'll still be the one you'll still be the one

The night she tried with all her love to take away your memory

But when I wake up in her arms you'll still be the one you'll still be the one

You'll still be the one my crazy heart runs to

And it's unfair I know imagine she's you when I love her

Though time may bring her close to me it's not the same as loving you

And after all it's said and done you'll still be the one you'll still be the one

You'll still be the one...

You'll still be the one you'll still be the one

Anywhere (Just Inside Your Arms) lyrics - Charley Pride

There are places to go where the cold north wind blows

Mountain's tall and the seashore have its charms

But the best place for me darling where I want to be

Is anywhere just inside your arms

Anywhere just inside your arms to be with you is where I want to be

Just as long as you're there then darling I won't care anywhere just inside your arms

If you like gay Paris Mexico or Tennessee where I want to go please let me tag along

Anywhere in this land I just wanna be your man anywhere just inside your arms

Anywhere just inside...

Yes anywhere just inside your arms

I'm Beginning To Believe My Own Lies lyrics - Charley Pride

I don't make the same old places that I used to and I seldom let you cross my mind

And I tell myself I'll soon forget you that it's just a matter of time

I tell myself that I don't miss you that the tears will never find my eyes

But I've told so many stories I'm beginning to believe my own lies

I have burned all the letters that you wrote me

And I took your picture from the frame

And I pretend that I've never known you that I never mentioned your name

I tell myself that I don't love you that the tears will never find my eyes

But I've told so many stories I'm beginning to believe my own lies

I'm beginning to believe my own lies

Kiss An Angel Good Mornin' lyrics - Charley Pride

Whenever I chance to meet some old friends on the street

They wonder how does a man get to be this way

I've always got a smilin' face any time and any place

And everytime they ask me why I just smile and say

You've got to kiss an angel good mornin'

And let her know you think about her when you're gone

Kiss an angel good mornin' and love her like a devil when you get back home

Well people may try to guess the secret of happiness

But some of them never learn it's a simple thing

The secret I'm speaking of is a woman and a man in love

And the answer is in the song that I always sing

You've got to kiss an angel good mornin'...

Kiss an angel good mornin'...

What Money Can't Buy lyrics - Charley Pride

To watch the rain fall the fields and the valleys hear the thunder roar across the sky

See the sun's great shine through a wall without windows

We hold hands and smile at what money can't buy

We haven't a mansion seen only by me and you our days without sunshine are few

Yet we always love even though it'd make us cry

Cause we hold hands and smile at what money can't buy

Our children are playing no shoes on their feet and patch after patch upon their knees

Yet we hear only laughter and people ask why

Cause we hold hands and smile at what money can't buy

We haven't a mansion...

Cause we hold hands and smile at what money can't buy

No One Could Ever Take Me From You lyrics - Charley Pride

Darling no one could ever take me from you I'll be with you as long as you want me to

You wanted to be mine long before I hadn't a dime

And darling no one could ever take me from you

Oh when I'm talking you always know just what I mean

You're the one to understand my every dream

Through all the hungry years you're the one who dried the tears

And darling no one could ever take me from you

I know that you must worry and wonder when I'm gone

But each day I love you more and more I could never do you wrong

Whatever life may bring you'll be a part of everything

And darling no one could ever take me from you

Whatever life may bring...

Jeannie Norman lyrics - Charley Pride

It's been ten long and lonely years since I've been to my hometown

I saw fame and fortune which I finally found

Everyone at home may know me and they say that I'm a big man

A hometown boy that made good and he's back home again

But there's a face in my mem'ry that's stands out from all the rest

A face of someone special the girl I still love best

Well I asked my mom about Jeannie she said she married yesterday

Please don't try to see her son it had to be this way

Then my eyes fill with tears as I turn back the years

To a love I once had when she was mine

Jeannie Norman was her name and I'd give up all my fame

Just to hold Jeannie close one more time

Then my eyes fill with tears...

Just to hold Jeannie close one more time

Once Again lyrics - Charley Pride

The telephone rings and I tremble knowing what it means if I talk to you

Your sweet lips still whisper darling I love you and need you

And once again I'll do the things I shouldn't do

And once again I'll come to you my heart just won't let go

When you whisper my name I lose all control

And once again I'll leave my world behind and rush to you and then

I'll be happy till I leave you once again

The price we paid for love is almost too high

But I can't find the strenght to end it all

Anytime that thought awakes I could tell you then forget the minute when I hear your call

Once again I'll reach heaven in your loving arms

Only you could ever make me feel this way

And once again I'll face the bitter sweetness of your goodbye tears

And I'll live for when I see you once again yes I'll live for when I see you once again

Pretty House For Sale lyrics - Charley Pride

Well hello there come on in I'm expecting you my friend

Yes you came to see the house that is for sale

All the neighbors are so fine they're the friendly helpfull kind

There's so many extras here that you'll enjoy

See the fireplace in the den have the bar she had filled in

And the paintings aren't they pretty on the wall

All the curtains and the shades all she had them custom made

You can have them don't want nothing left at all

A home where love once lived and died where a million mem'ries hide

It revolves to talk a story they could tell

Now a stranger came to town and my world came tumbling down

Now our home is just a pretty house for sale

A home where love once lived...

Yes our home is just a pretty house for sale
