There's More Love In The Arms You're Leaving lyrics - Conway Twitty

You'll find there's more love in the arms, you'll be leaving
Than all the good you'll ever find in goodbye.

The words, I love you, came easy for a while
But lately they're gettin' harder to say
I can't help notice, then the sadness in your smile
I know he's on your mind again today.

I hold you close but it's never close enough
and I know that he's the reason why
You'll find there's more love in the arms, you'll be leaving
Than all the good you'll ever find in goodbye.

Could it be you've been leaving without saying a word
Or have you tried to tell me and I just haven't heard
Was I dreaming last night or did I hear my baby cry
You'll find there's more love in the arms, you'll be leaving
Than all the good you'll ever find in goodbye.

Than all the good you'll ever find in goodbye...

At Least One Time lyrics - Conway Twitty

You keep comin' to me
Tryin' to look inside my mind
Well, what you see
Are you wonderin'
If you're in there
Well, you are
But baby, you got company.

I'm not looking for a place to go
When I'll leave I won't be coming back no more
I'm more like a circus show
I pitch my tent and then I'll go
So get in line at least one time.

I'm not just a side show either
Step up front but don't just stand and stare
Yeah, I'm the main attraction
But understand I'll sell my tickets anywhere

I'm not looking for a place to go
When I'll leave I won't be coming back no more
I'm more like a circus show
I pitch my tent and then I'll go
So get in line at least one time.

You keep comin' to me
Tryin' to look inside my mind
Well, what you see
Are you wonderin'
If you're in there
Well, you are
But baby, you got company...

I Don't Feel Like Lovin' You lyrics - Conway Twitty

Morning will tell you what I couldn't say
Didn't really want to leave or didn't really want to stay
Yes, it seems so unkind but what else can I do
No matter how I try just don't feel like loving you.

Walking beside me you're walking alone
Never moving quite together 'cause I'm moving on my own
Tryin' hard to believe but what else can I do
No matter how I try just don't feel like lovin' you.

Maybe I'll be sorry from the first night I'm alone
And I pray that I'll awaken by your side
But I can't believe in staying if I never tried to go
Yes, I won't believe in love until I try.

One night in one town or another town or two
Got no time for conversation barely time for passin' through
With no woman at heart comes no sorrow tonight
Baby, nothing where I go, but there's nothing left behind.

Maybe I'll be sorry from the first night I'm alone
And I pray that I'll awaken by your side
But I can't believe in staying if I never tried to go
Yes, I won't believe in love until I try...

It's Only Make Believe lyrics - Conway Twitty

People see us everywhere
They think you really care
But myself, I can't deceive
I know it's only make believe

My one and only prayer
Is that someday you'll care
My hopes, my dreams come true
My one and only you

No one will ever know
How much I love you so
My only prayer will be
Someday you'll care for me
But it's only make believe

My hopes, my dreams come true
My life I'd give for you
My heart, a wedding ring
My all, my everything

My heart I can't control
You rule my very soul
My only prayer will be
Someday you'll care for me
But it's only make believe

My one and only prayer
Is that some day you'll care
My hopes, my dreams come true
My one and only you

No one will ever know
How much I love you so
My prayers, my hopes, my schemes
You are my every dream
But it's only make believe (make believe)

I'll Try lyrics - Conway Twitty

Well, if your heartaches are many
And your friends are few
Well, darlin' I, I, I, I sympathize with you.

If your days, your days 're lonely
And your nights are blue
Well darlin' I, I, I, I sympathize with you.

Well, if you want someone to love you
I'll try, oh, how I'll try
Well if you need someone to hold you
Close by his side.
Yea, Yea, Yea.

I'll try, I'll try to hide
The tears that you cry
Well darlin', I, I, I, I sympathize with you.

Well, if you want someone to love you
I'll try, oh, how I'll try
Well if you need someone to hold you
Close by his side.
Yea, Yea, Yea.

I'll try, I'll try to hide
The tears that you cry
Well Darlin', I, I, I, I sympathize with you.

Yea, Yea, Yea, Yea...

Lonely Blue Boy lyrics - Conway Twitty

My name should be trouble
My name should be woe
For trouble and heartache is all that I know
Yeah lonely lonely blue boy is my name

My life has been empty
My heart has been torn
It must have been raining the night I was born
Yeah lonely lonely blue boy is my name

Well I'm so.I'm so afraid of tomorrow
And so tired,so tired of today
They say that love is the answer
But love never came my way

I'm writing this letter to someone unknown
So if you should find it and if you're alone
Well, lonely lonely blue boy is my name
Remember lonely,lonely blue boy is my name

Mona Lisa lyrics - Conway Twitty

(originally by Nat King Cole)

Well, Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa men have named you
You're so like a lady with a mystic smile
Is it only 'cause you're lonely they have named you
For that Mona Lisa strain that's in your smile

Well, is your smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart
Many dreams have been brought to your doorstep
They just lie there, and they die there
Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa,
Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art

Well, in a villa, in the little old Italian town
Lives a girl who's beauty changed the rogue
And he yearned to love her but their hopes all tumbled down
What does she want, I guess nobody knows

Well, is your smile to tempt a lover, Mona Lisa
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart
Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa
Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art

Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art
Or just a cold and lonely, lovely work of art...

Danny Boy lyrics - Conway Twitty

Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glenn to glenn and down the mountain side
The summer's gone and all the roses falling
It's you, It's you must go and I must bide.

Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, the pipes are calling
From glenn to glenn and even down the mountain side
The summer's gone and all the roses falling
It's you, It's you must go and I must bide.

Well, come on back when summer's in the meadow
When the valley's hushed and even white with snow
Hey, I'll be there in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy I love you so.

Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, the pipes are calling
From glenn to glenn and even down the mountain side
The summer's gone and all the roses falling
It's you, It's you must go and I must bide.

Well, come on back when summer's in the meadow
When the valley's hushed and even white with snow
Hey, I'll be there in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy I love you so.

Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy I love you so.
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy I love you so....

"This Time I've Hurt Her More Than She Loves Me" (1975)

This Time I've Hurt Her More (Than She Loves Me) lyrics - Conway Twitty

She wore that fallin' out of love, look
I even swore by the good book
Still the last lie I told her
Was the one she couldn't believe.

No more crying on her shoulder
She won't even let me hold her
And this time I've hurt her more
Than she loves me.

I've been too busy drinking
She's been too busy thinking
'Bout the kind of love she needs
And the man she never sees.

But Lord, she's already stood more
Than I was ever good for
And this time I've hurt her more
Than she loves me.

I've been too busy drinking
She's been too busy thinking
'Bout the kind of love she needs
And the man she never sees.

But Lord, she's already stood more
Than I was ever good for
And this time I've hurt her more
Than she loves me.

Lord, this time I've hurt her more
Than she loves me...

She Thinks I Still Care lyrics - Conway Twitty

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
And where could 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.

Just bacause I saw her then went all to pieces
She thinks I still care...

Jason's Farm lyrics - Conway Twitty

He bought three hundred acres ten miles south of town
A drifter who decided it was time to settle down
There was no sea he had not sailed nor a sky he had not flown
And the only place he'd never been was a place he could call his own

He broke the soil and planted seed but the land refused to yield
And the loneliness he felt at night was the kind no man should feel
Till a woman came into his life a daughter of a soil
A bride that he could stand beside and ease his daily toil

And he called his kingdom Jason's Farm
The land grew rich and green for king Jason and his queen
And the wind blew sweet each night time as they lay in each others arms
And all things good grew on Jason's Farm

When the summer sun had finally gone and the harvest time was near
Jason's pretty Mary whispered magic in his ear
Then Jason's laughter filled the land and his soul began to sing
And he boasted of a son his wife would bear him in the spring

And all things good grew on Jason's Farm
The land beneath the skies turned as green as Mary's eyes
And he felt the child grow strong in Mary's womb against his palm
And all things good grew on Jason's Farm

Now the Lord gives and he takes away and to all men this is true
And most of us accept it and we learn to live it through
God gave a child to Jason an extension of his life
But in doin' so He traded the child for Jason's wife

The crops are rotting in the fields the land left unattended
And somewhere Jason roams the earth his wounded heart unmended
And the house is slowly falling down and the dust of Jason's yard
A monument to a man who shunned his child and cursed his God

And nothing grows no more on Jason's Farm
The land once rich and green is dead and dry like Jason's dream
And the wind that once blew sweet through Mary's hand is strangely calm
And nothing grows no more on Jason's Farm

She Sure Does Make It Hard To Go lyrics - Conway Twitty

Her pretty sad eyes, glisten from a tear about to fall
When you're hurtin', don't the time moves slow
Her soft warm fingers trace a tear along my cheek
She sure does make it hard to go.

Her sweet lips softly whisper how much she wants me now
She's not at least too ashamed to let it show
And I feel her hand that tremble, that's holdin' on to me
She sure does make it hard to go.

Leaving her was the saddest thing, I guess I'll ever do
The way I'm hurtin', only heaven knows
And knowing when I'm gone, missing her will be much worse
That sure does make it hard to go.

We know that it's the last time to ever meet like this
Don't it hurt to reep the seeds you sow
I'll hold her to me gently for just one more goodbye
She sure does make it hard to go.

Leaving her was the saddest thing, I guess I'll ever do
The way I'm hurtin', only heaven knows
And knowing when I'm gone, missing her will be much worse
That sure does make it hard to go.
That sure does make it hard to go...

You Love The Best Out Of Me lyrics - Conway Twitty

I would just like to say, dear
Thank you for making my life all it should be
Life's not the same your love has changed dear
You love the best out of me.

You are my dreams coming true
I'm doing everything I've ever wanted to do
You've made me all I've ever wanted to be
You love the best out of me.

There's not a place I'd rather be than with you
I'll never want for nothing more than now I see
A piece of mind all the time I'm with you
You love the best out of me.

You are my dreams coming true
I'm doing everything I've ever wanted to do
You've made me all I've ever wanted to be
You love the best out of me.

You've made me all I've ever wanted to be
You love the best out of me...

She Did-It Did-I Didn't lyrics - Conway Twitty

And she did and it did and Lord knows
I didn't and I know I'll never again

She left me somewhere between it's over and the end
With more than an effort to destroy any man.
There'll never be another to share the love that live
'Cause her leaving left me no love to give

I knew if she left me it would surely destroy me
I'll never forget her for the love we had then
And she did and it did and Lord knows
I didn't and I know I'll never again.

I knew if she left me it would surely destroy me
I'll never forget her for the love we had then
And she did and it did and Lord knows
I didn't and I know I'll never again...

Race Is On lyrics - Conway Twitty

I feel tears wellin' up goin' deep inside
Like my heart's sprung a break
And a stab of loneliness so sharp and painful
That I might ever shake.

You might think I'm a takin' it hard
Oh, she wrote me off with a call
Don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrow
I may break right down and bawl.

Well, the race is on
And here comes pride
Up the backstretch
Heartaches are going to the inside.

My tears are holding back tryin' not to fall
My heart's out of the running
True love scratched for another's sake
The race is on and it looks like heartaches
And the winner loses all.

One day I ventured in love
Never once suspectin' what the final result would be
I lived in fear of waking up each morning
And findin' that you're gone from me.

Achin' and pain in my heart for today
Was the one that I hated to face
Somebody new came up to win her
I came out in second place.

Well the race is on and it looks like heartaches
And the winner loses all...

She Takes Care Of Me lyrics - Conway Twitty

She takes care of me whenever I need lovin'
She takes care of me
She's so good for me, she don't tie me down
But she takes care of me.

The colored light stand by as I pass through another town
Just riding on the wind, I'm not the kind to settle down
And where the highway ends my baby's standing in the door
She takes what I can give and nothing more.

She takes care of me whenever I need lovin'
She takes care of me
She's so good for me, she don't tie me down
But she takes care of me.

I can't promise her tomorrow I won't drift away
Cause I might be in Dallas maybe down in Santa Fe
She understands today it's really all that's on my mind
I'll love her hard and leave the past behind.

She takes care of me whenever I need lovin'
She takes care of me
She's so good for me, she don't tie me down
But she takes care of me...

Woman Lovin' Kind Of Man lyrics - Conway Twitty

I've known my share of women and their pleasures
I've spent a few cold nights out in the rain
I've lived most all my life out on the highway
Known the girls in all the towns and all their names.

I'm just a woman lovin' kind of man
I find 'em when I leave 'em and I love 'em when I can
Lord, I leave 'em knowin' what I am
I'm a woman lovin' kind of man.

I've never spent a day searching tomorrow
It's just a dream that promised to no one
But I've looked back on my yesterdays and borrowed
From all that livin' lovin' that I've done.

I'm just a woman lovin' kind of man
I find 'em when I leave 'em and I love 'em when I can
Lord, I leave 'em knowin' what I am
I'm a woman lovin' kind of man.

Lord, I leave 'em lovin' who I am
I'm a woman lovin' kind of man.
I'm a woman lovin' kind of man...

On My Way To Losing You lyrics - Conway Twitty

She's not with me for the same reason you were
She's not here 'cause I won't her to be
She just took what was left when you said you were through
And I found her on my way to losing you.

She made temptation the easy way out
And there were times you're all that we talked about
She knew the right things to say to help me find either way
And I found her on my way to losing you.

She loves me but it's hard to return it
'Cause you bear it where she wants to live
She thinks I love her in time when I get you off my mind
And I found her on my way to losing you.

She made temptation the easy way out
And there were times you're all that we talked about
She knew the right things to say to help me find either way
And I found her on my way to losing you.

She was everything...

"The High Priest Of Country Music" (1975)

Touch The Hand lyrics - Conway Twitty

Today I heard my woman say something I never heard her say before
She just told me that she was going to leave me and that she didn't love me anymore
But I know that the loving kindness and the understanding is still there somewhere
So I'm gonna get down on my knees and I'm gonna say to my baby

Touch the hand of the man that made you a woman
Then tell me you don't love me anymore

I was the first man to ever
Hold you in a special kind of way
And those unfamiliar feelings that caused you to tremble
I know you remember today
Before you decide that your gonna leave me
And do things you've never done before

Touch the hand of the man that made you a woman
Then tell me you don't love me anymore

The two lips that once held sweet surprises
Surprised me and said goodbye today
And those two lovin' arms that use to reach for me
Just reached out and pushed me away
I know you believe you don't love me
Before you walk out that door

Touch the hand of the man that made you a woman
Then tell me you don't love me anymore

Short On Love Too Long lyrics - Conway Twitty

Let's try a smile for a while and hold somebody's hand
Soon you're gonna find your blues are gone
Let's all love one another there's a woman for every man
This old world's been short on love too long

Come here darling hold your head up
You say the one you love is gone
If you find another first you got to get up
You've just been too short on love too long

Let's try a smile for a while...

Hey you with the bottle I know you're lonely
But the hurt will just be worst when the drink is gone
Somewhere there's someone who love you only
You've just been short on love too long

Let's try a smile for a while...

Amanda lyrics - Conway Twitty

I've held it all inward, Lord knows I've tried
It's an awful awakenin' in a country boy's life
To look in the mirror in total surprise
At the hair on your shoulders and the age in your eyes.

Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife
Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife.

Well, the measure of people don't understand
The pleasures of life in a hillbilly band
I got my first guitar when I was fourteen
Now I'm crowding thirty and still wearin' jeans.

Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife
Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife...

Before The Next Teardrop Falls lyrics - Conway Twitty

If he brings you happiness then I wish you both the best
It's your happiness that matters most of all
But if he ever breaks your heart if the teardrops ever start
I'll be there before the next teardrop falls

Though it hurts to let you go darling I want you to know
I'll stand by you if ever you should call
And if I should ever hear that he made you shed a tear
I'll be there before the next teardrop falls

I'll be there anytime you need me by your side
To dry away every teardrop that you cried
And if he ever leaves you blue just remember that I love you
I'll be there before the next teardrop falls
I'll be there before the next teardrop falls

I Sure Hate To See Me Go lyrics - Conway Twitty

I sure hate to see me go

You took my picture off the wall threw my clothes out in the hall
I guess I should admit what I already know
You're making plans without me soon I'll be your used to be
And I sure hate to see me go

I hate to see what's left of me just walk away
But it seems what we had goin's gone away to stay
There'll be more more loneliness than love for me in this old town I know
I sure hate to see me go

I hate to see what's left of me just walk away
From shatterd dreams of a perfect love just yesterday
But there's no need in standing by a fire that lost its final glow
I sure hate to see me go
I sure hate to see me go

Don't Cry Joni lyrics - Conway Twitty (with Joni Lee)

Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love
forever true

Joni was the girl who lived next door
I've known her I guess 10 years or more
Joni wrote me a note one day
And this is what she had to say

Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love
forever true

Slowly I read her note once more
Then I went over to the house next door
Her tear drops fell like rain that day
When I told Joni what I had to say

Joni, Joni please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
You're just fifteen
I'm twenty two
And Joni I just cant wait for you

Soon I left our little home town
Got me a job and tried to settle down
But these words kept haunting my memory
The words that Joni said to me

Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I'll grow up some day you'll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love
forever true

I packed my clothes
And I caught a plane
I had to see Joni
I had to explain
How my heart was filled
With her memory
And ask my Joni if she'd marry me

I ran all the way
To the house next door
But things weren't like they were before
My tear drops fell like rain that day
When I heard what Joni had to say

Jimmy, Jimmy please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
It's been five years since you've been gone
Jimmy I married your best friend John

It Keeps Right On A Hurtin' lyrics - Conway Twitty

I cry myself to sleep each night
Wishing I could hold you tight
Life seems so empty since you went away
The pillow where you lay your head
Holds my lonely tears instead
It keeps right on a-hurtin'
Since you're gone.

It keeps right on a'hurtin every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone.

They say a man should never cry when I see you passing by
My heart breaks down and cries a million tears
You broke my heart and set me free you forgot your
memories
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone.

It keeps right on a'hurtin every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
And I can't help it, I don't think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone...

I'll Live In Dreams Of Loving You Again lyrics - Conway Twitty

I feel you take me in your arms and hold me
I hear you tell me all the thing you never told me
I hear you say that you could never live without me
Then I wake up and realize you're gone

I'll spend another day just rying to forget you
I'll pretend that I'm someone who's never met you
But I know a night will fall just because I need you
I'll live in dreams of loving you again

I've tried so hard to live forgive forget about you
But I can't make it through one night alone without you

As darkness closes in to hide me
I'll close my eyes and once again you lay beside me
Until another morning comes to take you from me
I'll live in dreams of loving you again
I'll live in dreams of loving you again

Sally Was A Good Ole Girl lyrics - Conway Twitty

Will Sally used to carry my books to school Sally was a good ole girl
Helped me with my homework cause I was a fool Sally was a good ole girl
If I wanted a kiss or a little bitty squeeze
She was willing to do her best to please
A girl made for lovin' and not made to tease Sally was a good ole girl

Sally was a good ole girl Sally was a good ole girl
No matter what the request she gave it her best Sally was a good ole girl

Her folks were poor but she helped all she could Sally was a good ole girl
The hardest working girl in the neighborhood Sally was a good ole girl
She walked up and down the streets all day
Sellin' neck ties to the one's who'd pay
If they couldn't affor 'em she would give them away Sally was a good ole girl

Yeah Sally was a good ole girl...

Sally was a favorite with all of the men Sally was a good ole girl
All the other girls despised her then Sally was a good ole girl
All the women talk about her but Sally didn'tcare
She kept on a workin' and doin' her share
She wound up married to a millionare Sally was a good ole girl

Yeah Sally was a good ole girl...
Yeah Sally was a good ole girl...
Sally was a good ole girl...
Sally was a good ole girl...

I'm Goin' Crazy And She's Just Goin' lyrics - Conway Twitty

I've cried tears of regret not like this
I've had heartaches before not like this
For a long time I've been knowin'
That our love has just stopped growin'
I'm goin' crazy she's just goin'

I know she only loves me in my mind
Or really she has loved me her last time
All my dreams just lead me on
Cause I know she'll soon be gone
I'm goin' crazy she's just goin'

When I looked at her I could see it
When I held her I could feel it
She just tried to hang on
To a love already gone
I'm goin' crazy she's just goin'

When I looked at her I could see it...

"Linda On My Mind" (1975)

Linda On My Mind lyrics - Conway Twitty

Now I'm lying here with Linda on my mind
And next to me, my soon to be, the one I left behind
And Lord it's killing me to see her crying
She knows I'm lying here beside her with Linda on my mind.

Yes I know that I once loved her
And I placed no one above her
And I never thought I'd ever set her free
But it just wasn't in my plan
The way Linda squeezed my hand
The first time that I held her close as she danced with me.

She said I've loved you for a long time
But you're married to a friend of mine
And I tried hard to never let it show
But my love for you is stronger
I can't hide it any longer
And so I thought I'd better let you know.

Now I'm lying here with Linda on my mind
And next to me, my soon to be, the one I left behind
And Lord it's killing me to see her crying
She knows I'm lying here beside her with Linda on my mind...

It's Time To Pay The Fiddler lyrics - Conway Twitty

It's time to pay the fiddler
But before we pay the fiddler
Let's ask him to play one last final tune.

Well, it's time to pay the fiddler
And it's sad to know we've danced it all away
But the warm nights disappearing
Leaving nothing but the cold hard light of day.

And it's time to start erasin'
All the rainbows we've been chasing in our minds
We know there's no way of making
Other ties on us unravel and unwind.

Yes, it's time to pay the fiddler
And today's the day the first installment's due,
For the rest of all my days
I wonder why the maker mismatched me and you.

There's so much to consider
Like my wife and little children
Who need and want my love like you do.

It's time to pay the fiddler
But before we pay the fiddler
Let's ask him to play one last final tune.

It's time to pay the fiddler
But before we pay the fiddler
Let's ask him to play one last final tune...

Rollin' In My Sweet Baby's Arms lyrics - Conway Twitty

Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms.

Hey, where were you last Saturday night
While I was a layin' in jail
Go around town with another man
You wouldn't even come and go my bail

Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms.

Ain't gonna work on the railroad
I sure ain't gonna work on no farm
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms.

Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms.

Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms.

Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms

Fool I've Been Today lyrics - Conway Twitty

God forgive me for the fool I've been today
I just throw that girl you sent to me away
Lord I'll bet you shook your head at those awful things I said
When I let my foolish pride get in the way.

And God forgive me for the man I fail to be
To one who's only sin was loving me
If I've got a right to pray after treating her this way
God forgive me for the fool I've been today.

Lord, I thought I'd die when that tear came in her eye
And that look of disbelief came on her face
What a shame she had to see the ugly side of me
Just when my lonely heart had found its place.

God forgive me for the fool I've been today
How much love can one man throw away
I hadn't planned on growing old without that sweet and gentle soul
God forgive me for the fool I've been today...

I'll Get Over Losing You lyrics - Conway Twitty

The pain, the pain of a broken heart
The price I'll pay for loving you
I loved you from the very start
But I'll get over losing you.

I just can't seem to realize
You're leaving me today
As burning teardrops fill my eyes
I watch you walk away.

The pain, the pain of a broken heart
The price I'll pay for loving you
I loved you from the very start
But I'll get over losing you.

I lost my love, I lost my home
I just can't seem to win
If I get over losing you
I'll never love again.

The pain, the pain of a broken heart
The price I'll pay for loving you
I loved you from the very start
But I'll get over losing you...

I Just Can't Get Over You lyrics - Conway Twitty

I just can't get over you getting over me.

You look lovelier tonight than I remember
It's been a long time but I've loved you constantly
I know the fire of love for me was getting dimmer
I just can't get over you getting over me.

You seem happy knowing it's finally over
I know I'll always need you desperately
But it's worth losing you just to know what loving you could be
I just can't get over you getting over me.

For a while there was a smile where once a tear had been
And for a time you let me hold you tenderly
I'll be surprised if late at night I forget you now and then
I just can't get over you getting over me.

You seem happy knowing it's finally over
I know I'll always need you desperately
But it's worth losing you just to know what loving you could be
I just can't get over you getting over me

I'm Gettin' Tired Of Losing You lyrics - Conway Twitty

Well, here you are again just like
So many times before down on your knees
You make a promise just like you've made
And never kept before to me.

You're tellin' me you're sorry
for the things you say you didn't mean to do
But old friend you'd better make it
because I'm gettin' tired of losing you.

I've lost you to the booze and bars
and uptown girls a dozen times before
For years I've tried to fake it
but I ain't a gonna take it anymore.

Though I hoped that you'll rehearse your line
You're gonna say and pray it will come true
'Cause there won't be no next time
buddy I'm gettin' tired of losing you.

But darling please please don't leave me
I know I did you wrong before
just like you said I would.
Oh darling please please believe me
If you'll take me back just one more time
I promise I'll be good.

Well, here you are again just like
So many times before down on your knees
You make a promise just like you've made
And never kept before to me...

Almighty Power lyrics - Conway Twitty

When you feel like you've come to the end of your way you need love
When all you get is lonesome at the end of the day you need love
When you've lived the lifetime in a night still there's darkness above
There's no way to measure the almighty power of a good woman's love.

When you got an old mem'ry that refuses to die you need love
When you feel someone special has long passed you by you need love
When you've lived the lifetime in a night still there's darkness above
There's no way to measure the almighty power of a good woman's love.

A good woman's love is all that any man needs
Give me a good woman's love my heart my soul and mind plead
When there's someone somewhere that you're thinking of
There's no way to measure the almighty power of a good woman's love...

Girl From Tupelo lyrics - Conway Twitty

From Baltimore to LA by way of Mexico
Tryin' to find the girl I met one night in Tupelo
Not far enough to ride inside so I have to ride the blinds
Looking for a woman Lord that's heavy on my mind.

From Chicago to Phoenix, Lord, I try to understand
How a woman of the world can rob the soul of a man
From the backside of Dallas to the streets of El Paso
Finds me looking for the girl I met in Tupelo.

As my mind races back to the night in Tupelo
As she laid her body close to mine
While the night changed to day with the dawn she slipped away
And after miles and miles and sleepless nights she's still heavy on my mind.

From Chicago to Phoenix, Lord, I try to understand
How a woman of the world can rob the soul of a man
From the backside of Dallas to the streets of El Paso
Finds me looking for the girl I met in Tupelo...

Why Me lyrics - Conway Twitty

Why me Lord, what have I ever done
To deserve even one of the pleasures I've known
Tell me Lord, what did I ever do that was worth
Loving you and the kindness you've shown.

Lord help me Jesus, I've wasted it
So help me Jesus, I know what I am
Now that I know that I've need you so
Help me Jesus, my soul's in your hand.

Tell me Lord, if you think there's a way
I can try to repay All I've taken from you
Maybe Lord, I can show someone else
What I've been through myself on my way back to you.

Lord help me Jesus, I've wasted it so
Help me Jesus I know what I am
Now that I know that I've need you so
Help me Jesus, my soul's in your hand.

Lord help me Jesus, I've wasted it so
Help me Jesus I know what I am
Now that I know that I've need you so
Help me Jesus, my soul's in your hand.

My soul's in your hand...

Only Love Can Make Her Stay lyrics - Conway Twitty

You gave her things you thought she wanted
Pretty things to pass her time away
The things you bought can never hold her
Only love can make her stay.

Only love can make her stay
And keep her safe from hungry ones when you're away
She just needs to know you love her
Only love can make her stay.

Only love can make her stay
And keep her safe from hungry ones when you're away
She just needs to know you love her
Only love can make her stay...

"Feelins'" (1975)

Feelin's lyrics - Conway Twitty

Feelin's just lead us on till we know where we're goin' mhmm
If I told you that I loved you could we slip away where the lights're low
And if I put my arms around you and held you close could you tell me no
Well you know that I'd be lyin' if I said I was a tryin' to let you know I'd go
Yes love take me where we've never been before
Feelin's just lead us on till we know where we're goin' mhmm
You don't know how long I wanted to have you where you are right now
With you looking soft and pretty ain't no telling where we've found
Now here we are together too close with talkin' I can't tell you no
Yes love take us where we've never been before
Feelin's just lead us on till we know where we're goin' mhmm
Feelin's mhmm feelin's

Dy-No-Mite lyrics - Conway Twitty

It's dy-no-mite where you love me
I've got the fire that burns to prove just that
Yes, it's dy-no-mite where you love me
You lit my fuse and blew me off and out.

I thought that I was cool, calm and elected
Welcome to the club, I thought so too
But I got more charge from you that I expected
Ain't we glad the combination works so good

It's dy-no-mite where you love me
I've got the fire that burns to prove just that
Yes, it's dy-no-mite where you love me
You lit my fuse and blew me off and out.

I thought it jingles each time you come near me
I get all shook up every time we touch
It's gettin' harder every time you left me
You know a man can only stand so much.

It's dy-no-mite where you love me
I've got the fire that burns to prove just that
Yes, it's dy-no-mite where you love me
You lit my fuse and blew me off and out.

It's dy-no-mite where you love me...

Back Home Again lyrics - Conway Twitty

There's a storm across the valley
The clouds're rolling in
The afternoon is heavy on my shoulders
There's a truck on the forelane
A mile or more away
The whining of his wheels just makes it colder.

I'm an hour away from ridin'
On your prayers up in the skies
Ten days on the road I'm nearly home
There's a fire softly burning
Supper's on the stove
But the light in your eyes makes me warm.

Hey, it's good to be back home again, yes it is
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend
Hey, it's good to be back home again.

There's lots of news to tell you
How I spent my time
About the latest things the neighbors say
And your mother called last Friday
Somethin' makes her cry
And I felt our baby moved, just yesterday.

Hey, it's good to have you home again hmm
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend
Hey, it's good to have you home again.

It's the sweetest thing I know of
Just spendin' time with you
It's the little things that make a house a home

Like a fire softly burning and supper's on the stove
But it's the light in your eyes that makes me warm.


Hey, it's good to be back home again, yes it is
Sometimes this old farm feels like a long lost friend
Honey, it's good to have you home again

Oh, ain't it good to be together again?..

I'll Never Get Tired lyrics - Conway Twitty

Honey, I love you and I say it again
And I felt this way since I don't know when
You're a part of me and everything I do
Oh, I'll never get tired of saying I love you
'Cause I love you, I love you, I love you.

Well, it's heaven to me when I hold your hand
'Cause endlessly you're my lover man
You make me feel so good and I might you too
I'll never get tired of saying I love you
'Cause I love you, I love you, I love you.

I'll never get tired
'Cause you keep me inspired
To say I love you is so easy to do
Oh, I love you, yeah, I love you.

I'll never get tired
'Cause you keep me inspired
To say I love you is so easy to do
Oh, I love you, yeah, I love you.

I love you honey, I love you
I love you, you know
I love you
I love you baby
I love you...

Little Boy Love lyrics- Conway Twitty

Oh, a little boy love is a love that's true
The kind of lovin' that I have for you
I don't want the moon and the stars above
Just gimme your little boy love.

What kind of lovin' you give to me
My little boy love, I give to you
It's the kind of lovin' that I'll always be
Yeah, the little boy love is the love that's true.

Hey, there honey, I'm in love with you
I sure do love your little boy love
Hey there sugar do you love me now
Yes, I love your little boy love.

Oh, my kind of love...

It's the kinda lovin' that was meant for me
Yeah, you like my little boy love.

Baby, I think you know the score
I sure do love your little boy love
Please, please honey, won't you give me more
Yes, I love your little boy love.

Yeah, my kind of love...

She's About A Mover lyrics - Conway Twitty

Well, she was walking down the street
Looking fine as she could be, hey, hey
She was walking down the street
Looking fine as she could be, hey, hey.

If you have love and conversation
Oh yeah, what'd I say, hey, hey
She's about a mover, she's about a mover
She's about a mover, she's about a mover.

Hey, hey, hey, what'd I say
She's about a mover, she's about a mover
Well you know I love you baby
Oh yeah, what'd I say, hey, hey.

Well, he strolled right up to me and said
Hey, sweet thing, what's your name, hey, hey
Well, he strolled right up to me and said
Hey, sweet thing, what's your name, hey, hey.

Well, you know I love you baby
Oh yeah, what'd I say, hey, hey
He's about a mover...
He's about a mover she's about a mover

Let Me Be There lyrics - Conway Twitty

Wherever you go, wherever you may wander in your life
Surely you know I'll always wanna be there
Holding your hand and standin' by to catch you when you fall
Seeing you through in everything you do.

Let me be there in your morning let me be there in your night
Let me change whatever's wrong and make it right
Let me take you through that wonder land that only two can share
All I ask you is let me be there.

Watching you grow going through the changes in your life
That's how I know I'll always wanna be there
Whenever you feel you need a friend to lean on here I am
Whenever you call you know I'll be there.

Let me be there in your morning let me be there in your night
Let me change whatever's wrong and make it right
Let me take you through that wonder land that only two can share
All I ask you is let me be there.

All I ask you is let me be there...

You Done Lost Your Baby lyrics - Conway Twitty

I came home last night about a quarter past four
Without a worry on my mind
I slowly slipped through the kitchen door
I thought I was doing right fine.

But when I sneaked into my room
And started to slip in the bed
I found the note into the wall
And this is what it said.

You done lost your baby
Lost your baby lost your baby tonight
You done lost your baby, honey
Baby you just ain't been treatin' your baby right.

You come home every night
About a quarter past four
And then you come a sneakin'
Through the kitchen door.

You done lost your baby
Lost your baby, lost your baby tonight
Well, my knees started shakin'
And my stomach was achin'.

And my head went into a spin
I said this just couldn't happened to me
This must be a dream that I'm in.

So I stood there a shakin' for a minute or two
And then I sat down on the bed
But when I opened her note once more
Still it plainly read.

You done lost your baby
Lost your baby, lost your baby tonight
You done lost your baby honey
Baby you just ain't been treatin' your baby right.

Oh well, you trifled on your bed
So many times before
But you ain't gonna trifle
On your baby no more.

You done lost your baby
Lost my baby, lost your baby tonight, yeah...

Store Up Love lyrics - Conway Twitty

If we could only store up love when we got it
And use it when we need it like now
Everything would be alright
But love is one thing the whole world showed on
So have to get along without love somehow.

Yesterday you loved me anyone could see
Now all that's left with all love we had is just a memory
If we could only store up love when we got it
And use it when we need it like now.

If you've got someone that loves you today
You better hold on tight
Or you might find tomorrow love slipped away
If we could only store up love when we got it
And use it when we need it like now.
Yeah, we have to get along without love somehow...

Some Kind Of A Woman lyrics - Conway Lyrics

He's tempted by the devil to give up
The love he knows he's got at home
And temptation sometimes leads the best of men
To want to stay out all night long.

And the way the world is turnin'
You can find anything you wanna see
But I know you turn it down, turn around
And then come on home to me.

But I've got me some kind of woman
And she loves me like nobody can
Yes, I've got me some kind of a woman
And that's why I go on home to be her man.

He lets me know that I am the only girl
In the world he wants to hold
And I can tell by the way he touches me
That his love will not grow cold.

So why should he go looking for another
When I'm all he'll ever need
I'm satisfied to be with him and his love
Sure does take good care of me.

But I've got me some kind of woman
And she loves me like nobody can
Yes, I've got me some kind of a woman
And that's why I go on home to be her man...

"I'm Not Though Loving You Yet" (1974)

I'm Not Though Loving You Yet lyrics - Conway Twitty

You came to me and you threw me with a simple goodbye
I begged your forgiveness but you won't even try
You just say that it's all over that you'll soon forget
Oh but I still remember I'm not through loving you yet

No I'm not through loving you
I just need some time to make the plans that we made come true
Now you're tiring of trying and soon I'll regret
That I couldn't hold you I'm not through loving you yet

No I'm not through loving you...

Pure Love lyrics - Conway Twitty

Pure love, baby it's pure love
Milk and honey and Captain Krunch and you in the morning
Pure love, baby it's pure love
Ninety-nine and forty-four one hundreds percent pure love.

I wake up with sunshine, (Sunshine), laying beside me
And Bluebirds singing right outside my window
Soft warm kisses, (Kisses), say good morning, then I get breakfast in bed
You know you make me so happy. (Make me so happy.)

Pure love, baby it's pure love
Milk and honey and Captain Krunch and you in the morning,
Pure love, you're the picture of pure love
Ninety-nine and forty-four one hundreds percent pure love.

Pure love, baby it's pure love
Milk and honey and Captain Krunch and you in the morning
Pure love, you're the picture of pure love
Ninety-nine and forty-four one hundreds percent pure love.

Ninety-nine and forty-four one hundreds percent pure love
Ninety-nine and forty-four one hundreds percent pure love

We've Already Tasted Love lyrics - Conway Twitty

I didn't mean for this to get so out of hand when I first met you
But the more we see each other the more we want to
We can't stop this ain't something we can turn off like a light
It's too late we've already tasted love

You make me feel the way she hasn't made me feel in so long
It's beyond my fight for courage to just walk out and go on
What we found in each other's arms is all that's on my mind
It's too late we've already tasted love

We can't stop this ain't something we can turn off like a light
It's too late we've already tasted love

She's Just Not Over You Yet lyrics - Conway Twitty

She's just not over you yet

Sometimes an old mem'ry gets in her eye
She never tells me I never ask why
I know you're the one she tries to forget
She's just not over you yet

She's just not over you yet
She tries hard to love me but there's too much for her to forget
I knew there was someone the first day we met
She's just not over you yet

Maybe tomorrow I'll find a way
To help her get over a sad yesterday
I know she could love me if she could forget
She's just not over you yet

She's just not over you yet...

I Come Here To Let Her Memory Wander Through My Mind lyrics - Conway Twitty

I can't hold back these teardrops no matter how I try
I can't say that I'm not hurtin' that would be a lie
I just lost the sweetest love a man could ever find
I come here to let her mem'ry wander through my mind

The more I drink the more I think I can get over her
But the more I think the more I drink I want more of her
So if she ever wants to find me I'm here most all the time
I come here to let her mem'ry wander through my mind

The more I drink the more I think I can get over her...
I come here to let her mem'ry wander through my mind

I Changed My Mind lyrics - Conway Twitty

Today the thought of leaving you wander through my mind
And woke the sleep and mem'ries that we make
I thought about the love we knew that one day upped and died
It wasn't even strong enough to fake.

Soon as I am strong enough I pull myself away
You didn't love me long enough to hurt me anyway
Then you come to me and say you're sorry
One more time, I changed my mind.

I've been good and true to you but you don't even care
I'd be better off if you've just turned up gone
But then the thought of losing you is more than I can bear
Yes, I'm too weak to make it on my own.

Soon as I am strong enough I pull myself away
You didn't love me long enough to hurt me anyway
Then you come to me and say you're sorry
One more time, I changed my mind.

I changed my mind...

I See The Want In Your Eyes lyrics - Conway Twitty

I see the sparkling little diamond on your hand
It's plain to see that you've already got a man
I can see you're not about to fall for any of my lines
I see the want to in your eyes

Deep in your smile there's a quiet, soft desire
Like the embers of a once raging fire
You know I could light that fire again,
you know it isn't wise
I see the want to in your eyes

How strong's a band of gold
Is it strong enough to hold,
when a love has grown cold
and A woman wants a love, sweet and warm
How many women just like you have silent schemes.
How many men like me do they sleep with in their dreams
You can stay or you can go and although I sympathize
I still see the want to in your eyes
I see the want to in your eyes

She Fights That Lovin' Feeling lyrics - Conway Twitty

She is filled with mixed emotions
from a need that keeps messin' up
her mind and she fights the gentle
pleasures That keep pullin' on her
heart strings all the time.

She does fine until somebody's touch
wakes the sleeping passions inside of
her and she fights that lovin' feeling
But I am gonna love the fight right out of her.

She was turned into a woman by a man and
her love for him was strong then the love
she knew was shattered when she woke up
one day and found him gone but the craving
for somebody's love is still ever present in her world.

And she fights that lovin' feeling
But I'm gonna love the fight right out of her.

It's so hard for her not to act like a woman
When all her lovin' feelings begin to stir
She prays for the love she remembers.

And she fights that lovin' feeling
But I'm gonna love the fight right out of her.

Yes, she fights that lovin' feeling
But I'm gonna love the fight right out of her.

Before Your Time lyrics - Conway Twitty

Other arms have held me before your time
Other lips have thrilled me before your time
Other eyes have seen the light
You see in my eyes tonight.
Oh, but darling, that was long before your time

Other hearts have been broken before your time
Unkind words were spoken before your time
Other ears have heard me
Say the things I say to you today
But darling that was long before your time.

Before you came along I sang this same old song before
The melody was born when we walk right through love's door
The words I love you came but I just couldn't sing that line
Oh, but darling, that was long before your time.

Before you came along I sang this same old song before
The melody was born when we walk right through love's door
The words I love you came but I just couldn't sing that line
Oh, but darling, that was long before your time...

That's Asking Too Much Of The Wine lyrics - Conway Twitty

I've never been one to ask help of a stranger
But I'm so much in need I'm gonna make an exception this time
I loved her dearly now I can’t think clearly
I'm asking for your help wine
To think that a glass could erase all my past
That's asking too much of the wine

The barroom's dark and my knees a bit unsteady
Would you ever believe that this is my very first time
The drinks they keep comin' my brain they’re not numbin'
It's failing to comfort my mind
To think that a glass could erase all my past
That's asking too much of the wine

Oh never have I wanted or needed so much to lose myself in a drink
I was hopin' in time I'd get help from the wine
And not have to sit here and think
But the longer I try the harder I cry still thoughts of your love cross my mind
To think that a drink can change the way I think
That's asking too much of the wine

Your Leaving Left Me Still Loving You lyrics - Conway Twitty

Last night was our last night together
And it's too soon to know what I'll go through
They say time will tell me if it's over
But your leaving left me still loving you

I know the hurt of the last time will haunt me a lifetime
And the worst is yet to go through
And in turn there'll be more than the one just before
For your leaving left me still loving you

If I can't have you then I'll hold you in mem'ry
Remember we made quite a few
I can't believe your love has left me
And your leaving left me still loving you

I know the hurt of the last time will haunt me a lifetime...

"Honky Tonk Angel" (1974)

There's A Honky Tonk Angel (Who'll Take Me Back In) lyrics - Conway Twitty

That was the last time you've kissed me
And I don't mean a touch now and then
It's been a long time since you felt like my woman
And even longer since I felt like your man

So tell me if you think it's over
And I'll leave it up to you how it ends
And if there's someone who wants to love you can give him
Well there's a honky tonk angel who'll take me back in

We've been livin' a life for so long now
How much more do you think we can stand
There's an old friend out there and she's waiting
Lord she's happy just holding my hand

So tell me if you think it's over
And I'll leave it up to you how it ends
And if he still wants the love you can give him
Well there's a honky tonk angel who'll take me back in
Yeah there's a honky tonk angel who'll take me back in

Pop A Top lyrics - Conway Twitty

Pop a top again
I think I'll have another round
Another one my friend
Then I'll be gone
And you can let some other fool sit down.

I'd like for you to listen to a joke I heard today
From a woman who said she was through
And calmly walked away
I tried to smile and did awhile but it felt so out of place
Did you ever hear of a clown
With teardrops streaming down his face.

Pop a top again
I think I'll have another round
Another one my friend
Then I'll be gone
And you can let some other fool sit down.

All to me is misery and here I'm wasting time
'Cause a row of fools on a row of stools
Is not what's on my mind
But then you see her leaving me
Is not what I prefer
So it's either here a drinking beer
Or home rememberin' her.

Pop a top again
I think I'll have another round
Another one my friend
Then I'll be gone
And you can let some other fool sit down...

Somewhere Just Out Of Her Mind lyrics - Conway Twitty

Somewhere lost in another world
Nowhere can I find another girl
I lost her, then lost me
How could I have been so blind
I'm somewhere just out of her mind.

I was in her eyes for a while then in her smile
I was in her heart for a time
A man that lost his way but he lost his love one day
Somewhere just out of her mind.

Somewhere lost in another world
Nowhere can I find another girl
I lost her, then lost me
How could I have been so blind
I'm somewhere just out of her mind.

Somewhere lost just out of her mind...

Making Plans lyrics - Conway Twitty

You say tomorrow you're leaving
It's so hard for me to believe
I'm making plans for the heartaches
'Cause you're making plans to leave.

The tears for me will be falling
Like a tree shedding its leaves
I'm making plans for the teardrops
'Cause you're making plans to leave.

You're making plans to forget me
And I'm making plans to miss you
I'm gettin' ready to grieve
I'm making plans to be lonesome
'Cause you're making plans to leave

I'm making plans to be lonesome
'Cause you're making plans to leave...

Don't Let It Go To Your Heart lyrics - Conway Twitty

So she smiled at you when you saw her today
And you're still thinking bout the things she had to say
She said leaving you was hard to do and it's sad we had to part
But don't let it go to your heart.

So she told you she thinks of you now and then
Now you're thinking she might take you back again
But it's only cause she's lonely and she's about to fall apart
So don't let it go to your heart.

'Cause I'm your heart and I can tell you
That it doesn't mean a thing
She's just like you she hangs on to a helpless hopeless dream
She's made the break and it's hard to take
As you watch her teardrops start
But don't let it go to your heart.

Cause I'm your heart...
No don't let it go to your heart and I can tell you
That it doesn't mean a thing
She's just like you she hangs on to a helpless hopeless dream
She's made the break and it's hard to take
As you watch her teardrops start
But don't let it go to your heart...

Bad Seed My Daddy Sowed lyrics - Conway Twitty

I was found in Wilson County
Just a mile outside of town
On the doorsteps of two people
Who brought me up to where I am.

I was born to be a loser
And my name nobody knows
And as far as they concern
I'm just a bad seed daddy sowed.

They brough me up to the age of ten
Before they let me know
And since that day it seemed that life
Lost it's magic glow.

But they raised me right
And every night in prayer we bowed our heads
And they asked the Lord to light my path
And guide each step I made.

But the path you're walking on
Becomes a mighty rocky road
When you know that all you'll ever be
Is a bad seed daddy sowed.

At thirty one my heart was won
By a girl half my age
And with love so strong I could see no wrong
In decision that I made.

And you know I learned that there was truth
In all I always been told
Because you can't judge a book by its cover
And everything that's shinin' sure isn't gold.

Yes, I guess I'm guilty of dreaming an impossible dream
Because the way the things turned out
Sure isn't the way things seemed
And so tonight I'm leavin' behind
The only thing I ever had to call my own.

And I know as long as you live
You'll always be a reminder of all my wrongs
Could I hope that he'll forgive me
When he's old enough to know
That just like me he'll always be
The bad seed his daddy sowed...

Love Is The Foundation lyrics - Conway Twitty

I've seen her as she awakens in the morning
She reaches out her hand and without a word
As her fingers softly fall upon my face
She lights the flame of desire and makes me want her.

And love is the foundation we lean on
All you need is love to ease your mind
And does it have to be right to be called love
When she gives me more loving
Than a lifetime of looking could ever find.

And love is the foundation we lean on
All you need is love to ease your mind
And does it have to be right to be called love
When she gives me more loving
Than a lifetime of looking could ever find...

Pick Me Up On Your Way Down lyrics - Conway Twitty

You were mine for just a while
Now you're puttin' on the style.
And you never once looked back
At your home across the tracks.

Your the gossip of the town
But my heart can still be found
Where you tossed it on the ground.
Pick me up on your way down.

Hey, pick me up on your way down
When you're blue and all alone.
When their glamour starts to bore you
Come on back where you belong.

You may be their pride and joy
But they'll find another toy
And they'll take away your crown
Pick me up on your way down.

They have changed your attitude,
Made you haughty and so rude.
Your new friends can take the blame
But underneath you're still the same.

When you learn these things are true
I'll be waiting here for you
As you tumble to the ground,
Pick me up on your way down.

Hey, pick me up on your way down
When you're blue and all alone.
When their glamour starts to bore you
Come on back where you belong.

You may be their pride and joy
But they'll find another toy.
Then they'll take away your crown,
Pick me up on your way down...

Amazing Love lyrics - Conway Twitty

When she wakes up this morning and turns to kiss me
She'll find I let her sleep 'cause we talked so late last night
She'll know I kissed her face gently till my returning
And when she finds the rose on my pillow, I know she'll smile.

Her amazing love unending
Is so much more than I am worthy of
If the rose could speak my feelings
She'd know I cherrished her amazing love.

If I call her a little late she forgives me
Her voice does not betray she's spent another day alone
She softly thanks me for the rose and says I miss you
And then I can feel her smiling on the phone.

Her amazing love unending
Is so much more than I am worthy of
If the rose could speak my feelings
She'd know I cherrished her amazing love...

Simply Country Girl lyrics - Conway Twitty

She was pure as mountain rain
And had never known a pain
Of what it meant to love someone that let her down
She never kissed on her first date
and ten o'clock to her was late
Then she met me and I showed her the evil ways of town.

She was everything I searched Lord
Just a simple country girl
But like a fool I destroyed all she's stood for
I made a woman of the world
From a simply country girl.

Her big day was Sunday School
She lived by the golden rule
But now she lives just to love some stranger most every night
A mountain flower in full bloom
That learned too much too soon
I made her a woman of the world from a simply country girl.

She was everything I searched Lord
Just a simple country girl
But like a fool I destroyed all she's stood for
I made a woman of the world
From a simply country girl...

As Soon As I Hang Up The Phone lyrics - Conway Twitty (with Loretta Lynn)

[Loretta:]
Hello

[Conway:]
Hello Loretta

[Loretta:]
Darlin', I knew it was you
Oh, please tell me what to do
You gave me the will to go on
As soon as I picked up the phone.

The talk, is around that we're through
Oh darlin, tell me what to do
I knew that you'd tell me, they where wrong
As soon as I picked up the phone.

Oh no, Oh no
I can't believe that it's true
Oh no, Oh no
I can't believe that we're through
You tell me it's over and done
You say that you had all your fun
But I can't believe you'll be gone
As soon as I hang up the phone.

As soon as I hang up the phone.

[Conway:]
Goodbye Loretta...

Don't Mess Up A Good Thing lyrics - Conway Twitty

(Good thing, good thing, good thing, good thing)

Well, you been cheatin' on me
Big day you know I know it's true
But there ain't nobody in the whole wide world
Could love you like I do.

Don't be no fool (don't you be no fool)
Don't be no fool (don't you be no fool)
You gonna keep on foolin' around
Now baby your gonna mess up a good thing
Your gonna mess up a good thing.

Now I might have been cheated
Just a little bit baby like all the others do
Oh, but when I get my paycheck
Mama, I bring it on home to you.

Don't be no fool (don't you be no fool)
Don't be no fool (don't you be no fool)
You gonna keep on foolin' around
Now baby your gonna mess up a good thing
Your gonna mess up a good thing.

(Good thing, good thing, good thing, good thing)

They tell me you got a nighttime lover
A livin' away cross town
And there's gonna be, but a little while
Baby, before you cut me down.

Don't be no fool (don't you be no fool)
Don't be no fool (don't you be no fool)
You gonna keep on foolin' around

Baby, to catch me a doin' you wrong
'Cause you know everybody's jealous
Baby, we got a thing goin' on.

Don't be no fool (don't you be no fool)
Don't be no fool (don't you be no fool)
You gonna keep on foolin' around
Now baby your gonna mess up a good thing
Your gonna mess up a good thing.

(Good thing, good thing, good thing, good thing)...

Loves Not Where Love Should Be lyrics - Conway Twitty

In the past few months all lies have changed
We no longer speak each other's name
We turned around and love was gone
We don't even know what went wrong.

We've been blinded by time
You lived your life and I lived mine
Much too late now we see
Love's not where love should be.

We worked so hard to build a home
I guess we thought that love grew on and on
If we had worked this hard on you and me
Love would be where love supposed to be.

We've been blinded by time
You lived your life and I lived mine
Much too late now we see
Love's not where love should be.

Love's not where love should be...

Two Lonely People lyrics - Conway Twitty

Darlin' where did all the time go it's two a.m. again
It's time to leave each other's arms and the lyin' to begin
The love would fill you and me with them we'll never find
We're just two lonely people in a loving frame of mind.

We're just two lonely people that need the love we found
I'm not man enough to let you go but I just can't put her down
Two lonely people the same need the same time
We're just two lonely people in a loving frame of mind.

Two lonely people with too much love too late
Too much to lose anyway we choosed to ever separate
So we'll pretend we'll love and then love would plan another time
We're just two lonely people in a loving frame of mind.

Two lonely people with too much love too late
Too much to lose anyway we choosed to ever separate
So we'll pretend we'll love and then love would plan another time
We're just two lonely people in a loving frame of mind...

I Changed My Way lyrics - Conway Twitty

Today the thought of leaving you wandered through my mind
And all the sleeping memories that we made
I've thought about the love we knew that one day upped and died
It wasn't even strong enough to fade.

Soon as I am strong enough I pull myself away
Your little love mean long enough and hurt me anyway
Then you come to me and stay and love me
One more time I changed my mind.

I've been good and true to you but you don't even care
I'd be better off if you just turn and gone
But then I've thought of losin' you is more than I can bear
Yes I am too weak to make it on my own.

Soon as I am strong enough I pull myself away
Your little love mean long enough and hurt me anyway
Then you come to me and stay and love me
One more time I changed my mind...
I changed my mind

Country Bumpkin lyrics - Conway Twitty

He walked into the bar
And parked his lanky frame
Upon a tall bar stool
With a long soft southern drawl
Said, I'll just have a glass of anything that's cool.

A barroom girl with wise and knowing eyes
Slowly looked me up and down
And she said, I wonder how on earth
That country bumpkin found his way to town.

And she said, Hello, country bumpkin,
How's the frost out on the pumpkin.
I've seen some sights but man you're somethin',
Where'd you come from country bumpkin?

Just a short year later in a bed of joy
Filled tears and death like pain
Into this wondrous world of many wonders
Another wonder came

That same woman's face was wrapped up
In a raptured look of love and tenderness
As I marvelled at the soft and warm
And cuddly boy child feeding at her breast.

And she said, Hello, country bumpkin,
Fresh as frost out on the pumpkins
I've seen some sights but babe you're somethin',
Mommy loves her country bumpkin.

Forty years of hard work later
In a simple, quiet and peaceful country place
The heavy hand of time had not erased
The raptured wonder from my woman's face.

She was lying on her death bed
Knowing fully well her race was nearly run
But she softly smiled and looked into
The sad eyes of her husband and her son.

And I said, So long country bumpkins,
The frost is gone now from the pumpkins,
I've seem some sights and life's been somethin'
See you later country bumpkins.

See you later country bumpkins...

Spiders And Snakes lyrics - Conway Twitty

I remember when Loretta Lynn said ,
You want to walk me home again
And I said, mhm yes I do.
And she said, Well I don't want to go right home
And I'm the kind that don't want to be alone
If you would I would too.

Ha, ha and so we took a stroll
And wound down by a swimmin' hole
And she said do what you wonna do, I don't care
Mhm, I got silly and I found me a frog
In the water by a holler log
And I said Loretta this frog's for you.

I don't like spiders and snakes
And that ain't what it takes
To love me like I want you to
I don't like spiders and snakes
and that ain't what it takes to love me
Like I wanna be loved by you.

Well, I think of that girl from time to time
And I phone up when I got me dime
And I say, Hello baby, ain't you cool
Ha, ha she said, Do you remember when
And you like to get together again
If you do hey, I see I'm just cool.

Ha, ha Well I am shy and so for awhile
Most of my lovin' was tough and smile
Till she said come on over here, I don't care
Mhm mhm I would never say you might guess
Still lookin' for somethin' but a sneak out of dress
And she said... ha ha ha.

Yeah, I don't like spiders and snakes
And that ain't what it takes
To love me like I want you to
I don't like spiders and snakes
and that ain't what it takes to love me
Like I wanna be loved by you...

I'm Gettin' Tired Of Losing You lyrics - Conway Twitty

Well, here you are again just like
So many times before down on your knees
You make a promise just like you've made
And never kept before to me.

You're tellin' me you're sorry
for the things you say you didn't mean to do
But old friend you'd better make it
because I'm gettin' tired of losing you.

I've lost you to the booze and bars
and uptown girls a dozen times before
For years I've tried to fake it
but I ain't a gonna take it anymore.

Though I hoped that you'll rehearse your line
You're gonna say and pray it will come true
'Cause there won't be no next time
buddy I'm gettin' tired of losing you.

But darling please please don't leave me
I know I did you wrong before
just like you said I would.
Oh darling please please believe me
If you'll take me back just one more time
I promise I'll be good.

Well, here you are again just like
So many times before down on your knees
You make a promise just like you've made
And never kept before to me...

Sweet Things I Remember About You lyrics - Conway Twitty

The softness of your warm red lips
The gentle touch of your fingertips
Are just sweet things I remember about you
That happy look deep in your eyes
The way you kiss and the way you sigh
Are just sweet things I remember about you.

I could tell you a million things you do
That haunt me night and day
For I get so lonely darling every moment you're away
The way you smoke your cigarette
The way I tingled when we first met
Are just just sweet things I remember about you.

I could tell you a million things you do
That haunt me night and day
For I get so lonely darling every moment you're away
The way you smoke your cigarette
The way I tingled when we first met
Are just just sweet things I remember about you...

It All Falls Down lyrics - Conway Twitty

Yes, it falls down
Everytime we build it up
It all falls down.

When we first fell in love the sun shined bright above
And everything we ever did was right
Love was all we ever knew clouds above were always blue
And all the time we never had a fight.

But time together made a change
The love we have is not the same
It seems that we keep goin' round and round.

We try so hard to build our love
And make it just the way it was
But everytime we build it up
It all falls down.

Yes, it falls down
Our love gets halfway to heaven then falls to the ground
Yes, it falls down.

It's so hard to make love strong
With one day right and two days wrong
And everytime we build it up
It all falls down.

Yes, it falls down
Everytime we build it up
It all falls down...

Lifetime Before lyrics - Conway Twitty

We've lived more in a short time together
Than we've lived in a lifetime before
And this feeling that's burning inside me
Is a thing of the future in store.

The short time we've spent together
Oh, the love we give each other
Is more than most people see in the lifetime
You're all I ever live for.

Oh, no one could ever give more
I can't see me without you
Nowhere in my mind.

We've lived more in a short time together
Than we've lived in a lifetime before
And this feeling that's burning inside me
Is a thing of the future in store...

Louisiana Woman, Mississippi Man lyrics - Conway Twitty

[Conway Twitty:]
Hey, Louisiana woman
[Loretta Lynn:]
Mississippi man
[Both:]
We get together every time we can
The Mississippi River can't keep us apart
[Conway Twitty:]
There's too much love in this Mississippi heart
[Loretta Lynn:]
Too much love in this Louisiana heart

[Conway Twitty:]
See the alligators all a waitin' nearby
Sooner or later, they know I'm gonna try
When she waved from the bank
Don't you know I know
It's a-goodbye fishin' line, see you while I go
With a Louisiana woman waitin' on the other side
The Mississippi River don't look so wide

[Loretta Lynn:]
Too much love in this Louisiana heart

[Loretta Lynn:]
Well, I thought I'd been loved, but I never had
'Til I was wrapped in the arms of a Mississippi man
When he holds me close, it feels almost
Like another hurricane just ripped the coast
If he can't come to me, I'm gonna go to him
That Mississippi River, Lord, I'm gonna swim

[Conway Twitty:]
Hey, Louisiana woman
[Loretta Lynn:]
Mississippi man
[Both:]
We get together every time we can
The Mississippi River can't keep us apart
[Conway Twitty:]
There's too much love in this Mississippi heart
[Loretta Lynn:]
Too much love in this Louisiana heart

[Conway Twitty:]
Well, Mississippi River, Lord, it's one mile wide
And I'm gotta get me to the other side
[Loretta Lynn:]
Mississippi man, I'm a-losin' my mind
Gotta have your lovin' one more time
[Conway Twitty:]
I'm gonna jump in the river and here I go
Too bad, alligator, you swim too slow

[Conway Twitty:]
Hey, Louisiana woman

Too much love in this Louisiana heart

[Conway Twitty:]
There's too much love in this Mississippi heart
[Loretta Lynn:]
Too much love in this Louisiana heart

For Heaven's Sake lyrics - Conway Twitty

We thought the baby was the answer to keep us happy in our world
Our prayers were answered with the darling baby girl
And we named her Heaven but a child's not all it takes
But I'll stay, and I'll stay for heaven's sake.

You often send me roses and kiss me when you leave home
And you pick out my shirt and tie, like nothing's ever wrong
But we're only fooling heaven, we can't make a mistake
I won't leave you, I'll see it through for heaven's sake.

Christmas trees and make believe for heaven's sake
Ginger mint and let's pretent, if that's what it takes
Evening prayers and pigtails, teddy bears
And wishing wells for heaven's sake.

Rollers case and skinned up knee and dirty face
I kiss her hurt until her tears are all erased
Baby dolls and your high heels,
Lollipops before her meal for heaven's sake...

Release Me lyrics - Conway Twitty

[Loretta:]
Release me darlin', let me go.
I don't love you anymore.
To live together is a sin.
Release me and let me love again.

[Conway:]
Oh, I have found a new love dear.
And I'll always want her near.
Her lips are warm while yours are cold.
Release me, darling, let me go.

[Both:]
Please release me, let me go.
I don't love you anymore.
To live together is a sin.
Release me and let me love again.

Please release me, let me go.
I don't love you anymore.
To live together is a sin.
Release me and let me love again...

You Lay So Easy On My Mind lyrics - Conway twitty

You lay so easy on my mind
Oh, so easy on my mind
Whenever I need you
All I have to do is close my eyes.

You lay so easy on my mind
Oh, so easy on my mind.
Wrap me in your warmness,
And let me feel your body close to mine.

Everything you say and do
Finds me wanting more of you.
And each moment
Brings to life a million dreams.

Heavens something real
Yes, its something I can feel
When I feel your angel touch
All over me.

You lay so easy on my mind
Oh, so easy on my mind
Oh, there's not a part of me
Your sweet love don't reach to satisfy.

Every day I need you more,
You're the one I'm livin' for
And the best you'll give
You've given me.

You completely satisfy
Every need I have inside
And I pray you'll never take
Your love from me.

You lay so easy on my mind
Oh, so easy on my mind
Oh, there's not a part of me
Your sweet love don't reach to satisfy.

Oh, there's not a part of me
Your sweet love don't reach to satisfy...

Our Conscience You And Me lyrics - Conway Twitty

Ah, your warm lips are inviting as they tremble with desire
And everytime I see you it adds more fuel to the fire
And again we'll share the love that's shouldn't be
Just between the three of us our conscience you and me.

But our patiences are stronger then the will to do what's right
While someone else waits at home we'll meet again tonight
Then I'll hold you close and love you tenderly
Just between the three of us our conscience you and me.

While hiding in the shadows our love blooms at night
Though we know it's wrong we still go on
We've lost control of all that's right
But if the love's so strong this wrong, why should it be
Just between the three of us, our conscience, you and me...

As Good As A Lonely Girl Can Be lyrics - Conway Twitty

Tell me darling have I been away too long
I was wrong to leave but now I'm coming home
Have you missed me, I kind of hope you would
And jokingly I ask are you being good.

I'm being good as lonely girl can be
And there's no other place on earth I'd rather be
To lie here beside him oh Lord how sweet love can be
I'm being good as lonely girl can be.

It was just too much for me I should've known
You were just too much a woman to me alone
I just realized I love you much too late
And Lord it's killing me to hear you say.

I'm being good as lonely girl can be
And there's no other place on earth I'd rather be
To lie here beside him oh Lord how sweet love can be
I'm being good as lonely girl can be.

Tell me darling, have I been away too long
I know I was wrong to leave but now all I wanna do
Is come back home
You're just too much to me I know I should've known
You were just too much woman for me to leave alone...

Bye Bye Love lyrics - Conway Twitty

Bye bye love, bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm a gonna cry.
Bye bye my love bye bye.

There goes my baby
With someone new
She sure looks happy
And I sure am blue.

She was my baby
Till he stepped in
Goodbye to romance
That might have been.

Bye bye love, bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm a gonna cry.
Bye bye love, bye bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness, I feel like I could die.
Bye bye my love, bye bye.

Well, I'm through with you Conway
I'm through with love
Yeah, I'm through with countin' the stars above
And here's the reason that I'm so free
My lovin' baby is through with me.

Bye bye love, bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm a gonna cry.
Bye bye love, bye bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness, I feel like I could die.
Bye bye my love, bye bye.

Bye bye love, bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm a gonna cry.
Bye bye love, bye bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness, I feel like I could die.
Bye bye my love, bye bye...

Living Together Alone lyrics - Conway Twitty

I can't believe the life we live
Or the love that we can't give to each other
I only know my dreams are gone
And that you've been carrying on with another.

That won't let us stop it
We're too blind to drop it
So we still go on
Living together alone.

Oh, I don't know how long we'll survive
Living here where love has died it's a wonder
Loneliness surrounds this house now
We'll get by, I don't how we're together.

A house that's dividing will tumble to the ground
And yet we still go on living together alone
And yet we still go on living together alone...

What Are We Gonna Do About Us lyrics - Conway Twitty

I do my best to shield her from the hurt I'm finding now
And I try hard not to give him reason to die
We'd play our part so well we still have the love in trust
Oh, what are we gonna do about us?

Us, two people that were meant for each other
Us, a happiness we found
Us, the reason for the chance we are taking
Oh, what are we gonna do about us?

I tell her I miss her when I'm away from home
And he thinks I get lonely when he leaves me alone
The moments we steal soon won't be enough
Oh, what are we gonna do about us?

Us. two people that were meant for each other
Us, a happiness we found
Us, the reason for the chance we are taking
Oh, what are we gonna do about us?...

If You Touch Me lyrics - Conway Twitty

Well, she packed my bags and kicked me out
When we were havin' bad times
Looking back I can see it was over nothin'
Since then there's been too much red wine
And women messin' up my mind.

But nothin' can compare with baby's lovin'
At two o'clock this mornin' I made up my mind
I'm gonna go back home to my sweet baby
I'm lookin' though the window at the city for the last time.

Lord knows this life, it'll drive me crazy
Well, I walked out on the highway caught a semi headed home
I hope she'll take me back oh Lord I'm prayin'
Now I'm standin' at the front door hopin' I'll find her all alone.

Then I heard her sweet voice sayin'
And she said if you touch me you've got to love me
And if you love me you'll have to stay with me forever
And I'll forgive you and love will be like it should be.

So if you touch me you've got to love me.
If you touch me you've got to love me...

Before Your Time lyrics - Conway Twitty

Other arms have held me before your time
Other lips have thrilled me before your time
Other eyes have seen the light
You see in my eyes tonight.
Oh, but darling, that was long before your time

Other hearts have been broken before your time
Unkind words were spoken before your time
Other ears have heard me
Say the things I say to you today
But darling that was long before your time.

Before you came along I sang this same old song before
The melody was born when we walk right through love's door
The words I love you came but I just couldn't sing that line
Oh, but darling, that was long before your time.

Before you came along I sang this same old song before
The melody was born when we walk right through love's door
The words I love you came but I just couldn't sing that line
Oh, but darling, that was long before your time...

"Clinging To A Saving Hand / Steal Away" (1973)

Clinging To A Saving Hand lyrics - Conway Twitty

Sing me a song of praise and glory
Help this wandering child to understand.
That when I close my eyes in sleep eternal
I'll be clinging to a saving hand.

I want you to sing to me about the rock of ages,
And sing about eternity so sweet.
So that when I take my last breath of life
I'll awaken at my saviour's feet.

I want you to tell me about Paul and Matthew
And sing about my dear saviour's birth
And tell about his trials and tribulations.
While he walked upon his heathen Earth.

Come on and sing me a song of praise and glory
Help this wandering child to understand.
That when I close my eyes in sleep eternal
I'll be clinging to a saving hand.

I'll be clinging to a saving hand...

Suppertime lyrics - Conway Twitty

Many years ago in days of childhood
I used to play till evenin' shadows come
Then windin' down that old familiar pathway
I heard my mother call at set of sun.

Come home, come home it's suppertime
The shadows lengthen fast
Come home, come home it's suppertime
We're going home at last.

Some of the fondest memories of my childhood
Were woven around suppertime
When my mother used to call
From the backsteps of the old homeplace
Come on home now son it's suppertime.
Ahhhh, but I'd loved to hear that once more
But you know for me time has woven the realization of
The truth that's even more thrilling and that's when
The call come up from the portals of glory
To come home for it's suppertime when all
Gods children shall gather around the table of the Lord
Himself and the greatest suppertime of them all.

Come home, come home it's suppertime
The shadows lengthen fast
Come home, come home it's suppertime
We're going home at last...

Third Man lyrics - Conway Twitty

Last night I dreamed I took a walk up Calvary's lonely hill
The things I saw with my own eyes could not have been more real

I saw upon three crosses three men in agony
Two cried out for mercy and the third man he looked at me
And oh the hurt in this man's eyes that just broke my heart in two
It seemed I could hear him say son I'm doing this for you
I knelt beneath the third mean's cross and slowly bowed my head
I reached out to touch his feet and it stained my hand's with red
And when I heard him cry in pain I raised my eyes to see
The blood spilled from the third man's side and some of it spilled on me
The third man wore a crown of thorns spikes held him to the tree
And I heard him say oh my God my God why hast Thou forsaken me
And there within a mighty crowd the ones who mocked him cried
King save Thyself if thou art King and then the third man died

Suddenly I heard the thunder roll I saw the lightening pierce the sky
The third man was still hanging there and I began to cry
I saw the boulders fall and heard the breaking of the ground
Then I awoke and though I dreamed I touched my cheek and found

My eyes were wet where I had cried a dream I wished I knew
I still can hear the third man say I'm doing this for you

Big Man Above lyrics - Conway Twitty

Sometimes in life we ought to think twice
About the people that we step on
Better show our worth while here on earth
For soon the chance is gone

Don't gossip about your neighbor
We gotta show more love
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above

I gotta help your neighbor show more love
Lend a hand, don't push and shove
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above

Life is but a vapor
It's here and then it's gone
What we build in heaven
Will be there from now on

But things we gather here on earth
Will soon decay and rust
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above

Gotta help your neighbor show more love
Lend a hand, don't push and shove
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above
One of these days we're gonna stand
Before that big man above
