She’s just an old love turned memory
by Charley Pride
[(1977)]
I called her today, an accidental mistake
And her name slipped out to some friends
Forgotten old feelings are brand new today
‘Cause I’m right back where I’ve always been

Now, she’s just an old love turned memory
And now I seldom see her around
She’s just an old love turned memory
But she still turns my world upside down

I went to some places where I knew she’d be
Just to prove our love was over and done
But the moment hereyes meet mine I knew
My sorrow had only begun

So, she’s just an old love turned memory
Now I seldom see her around
She’s just an old love turned memory
But she still turns my world upside down
But she still turns my world upside down

There’ll be no mansion waiting on the hill
With crystal chandeliers
There’ll be no fancy cloths for you to wear
Everything I have is standing here in front of you to see
All I have to offer you is me

Sweetheart I’ll give you all my love
In every way I can
But make sure that’s what you want
While your still free
The only gold I have for you is in this wedding band
Cause all I have to offer you is me

There’ll be no mansion waiting on the hill
With crystal chandeliers
There’ll be no fancy cloths for you to wear
Everything I have is standing here in front of you to see
All I have to offer you is me
All I have to offer you is me

Walking in the sand hand in hand never thinking that it could end

Making our love with the moon above at the drive-in picture show

And it was burgers and fries and cherry pies in a world we used to know

Changes come and go we’ve had our share I know

Now it seems we don’t have time for love anymore

All the things we used to say little things we did each day

Oh I long to do the things that we did before when it was

Burgers and fries and cherry pies it was simple and good back then

Walking in the sand hand in hand never thinking that it could end

Making our love with the moon above at the drive-in picture show

And it was burgers and fries and cherry pies in a world we used to know

Well I’m still the same old me that’s all I’ll ever be

I’d like to think that you’re the same old you

We lost something down the line that I wish we both could find

Lord I’d like to do the things that we used to do when it was

Burgers and fries and cherry pies it was simple and good back then

Walking in the sand hand in hand never thinking that it could end

Making our love with the moon above at the drive-in picture show

And it was burgers and fries and cherry pies in a world we used to know

Capo 2

Verse 1

When she wakes up this morning and turns to kiss me
She’ll find I let her sleep because we talked do late last night
She’ll know kissed her face gently til my returning
And when she finds the rose on my pillow I know she’ll smile

Chorus

Her amazing love unending
Is so much more than I am worthy of
If the rose could speak my feelings
She’ll know I cherish her amazing love

Verse 2

If I call her a little late she forgives me
A voice does not betray she spent another day alone
She softly thanks me for the rose and says I need you
And than I can feel her smiling on the phone

Chorus

Her amazing love unending
Is so much more than I am worthy of
If the rose could speak my feelings
She’ll know I cherish her amazing love

Wonder Could I Live There Anymore
(1970)
(Charley Pride)

Have you ever been awaken by the crowing of a rooster
While the night dew is still heavy on the ground

And the voice of Uncle Ben

Seems to break the morning silence
Bringing light to windows all around

It’s time to rise and shine start another hard work day
Get the cows in and start the milking chores
It’s nice to think about it maybe even visit
But I wonder could I live there any–more

( steel – guitar )

Something bout the smell of cornbread

Cooking on a wood stove
Seems to bring a picture to my mind

Of a little three room house with mama in the kitchen
But she can’t stop to talk ain’t got the time

She’s a fixing dad his supper he’s a working over time
Trying to pay our bill at the grocery store
It’s nice to think about it maybe even visit
But I wonder could I live there any–more

( steel – guitar )

As I think about my childhood and of my old hometown
I don’t really miss ‘em like before
It’s nice to think about it maybe even visit
But I wonder could I live there anymore

Is Anybody Goin? To San Antone (Recorded Key)

5/21/04

Rain dripping off the brim of my hat
It sure is cold today
Here I am walkin’ down Sixty Six
Wish she hadn’t done me that way
Sleeping under a table in a roadside park
A man could wake up dead
But it sure seems warmer than it did
Sleeping in our king size bed

Chorus:
Is anybody going to San Antone
Or Phoneix, Arizona
Any place is all right as long as I
Can forget I’ve ever known her

Wind whippin down the neck of my shirt
Like I aint got nothin’ on
But I’d rather fight the wind and rain
Than what I been fightin’ at home
Yonder comes a truck with the U.S. Mail
People writin’ letters back home
Tomorrow she’ll probably want me back
But I’ll still be just as gone

Chorus

Capo 2

Intro G C

Down at the railroad station there’s people getting off
Some are going north and some are going south
I’m just going to be gone
Some people are born to be takers others just want to give
Some people live just to love I just love to live

Oh I was justborn to be exactly what you see
Nothing more or less in other words for the best
I just try to be exactly what you see
Today and everyday I’m just me

Break

When people say that life is rough I wonder compared to what
Some are wanting more and mores are getting less
I just want what I got
Some want to live on a hill others down by the sea
Some want to live inside my walls I just want to live free

Oh I was justborn to be exactly what you see
Nothing more or less in other words for the best
I just try to be exactly what you see
Today and everyday I’m just me

………Oh I was just born to be exactly what you see today and
everyday I’m just me

“I’d Rather Love You”

Capo 2

Into

Verse

If tonight could be our last night together
I’m not sorry that we fell in love at all
If tomorrow’s sun should find me hurting for you.
I know
That the price for loving you would still be small

Chorus

For I’d never know the thrill of your sweet lips
And the chill I get just knowing that you’re mine
Cause I’d spend my life not knowing what real love is
Oh no
Oh I’d be hurting, I’m still certain
That I’d rather love and lose you
Than never know your love at all

Break

Chorus

For I’d never know the thrill of your sweet lips
And the chill I get just knowing that you’re mine
Cause I’d spend my life not knowing what real love is
Oh no
Oh I’d be hurting, I’m still certain
That I’d rather love and lose you
Than never know your love at all

Yes I’d rather love and lose you
Than never know your love at all

Written by Lassaye Holmes
(3/4 time)

I live in a three-room shack it’s not much to see
No special lights on my Christmas tree not this Christmas for me
I may not get a Christmas card or shoes for my weary feet
But when Jesus was born on Christmas morn
That was my gift to me

Son of God sent down from above
To cheer the whole wide world
Peace on earth goodwill toward all
And fill their Christmas with love

I have three kids and a wife so true a few ole ties and suit
But when God gives you these things and love you can see
That’s enough Christmas for me

Repeat #2 x2
