Track Listing (choose a title below for lyrics):
Long ago it seemed to me I had it made
I had a little money, I had my little honey
One day her feelings strayed to another guy
And I lost everything, but a hurt her memory brings
Heartaches in heartaches
Teardrops on teardrops
That's all I've known since she went and turned me down
Heartaches in heartaches
Teardrops on teardrops
Since my baby left me in this town
Any man can claim to have his share of sadness
That's the way they made it and they ain't gonna change it
Since my baby left I been workin' overtime
And there's no vacation, such a mean sensation
Heartaches in heartaches
Teardrops on teardrops
That's all I've known since she went and turned me down
Heartaches in heartaches
Teardrops on teardrops
Since my baby left me in this town
Heartaches in heartaches
Teardrops on teardrops
That's all I've known since she went and turned me down
Heartaches in heartaches
Teardrops on teardrops
Since my baby left me in this town
Heartaches in heartaches
Teardrops on teardrops
That's all I've known since she went and turned me down
Heartaches in heartaches in heartaches
Teardrops on teardrops
Well, you say it’s a matter of etiquette
But I know it's a matter of time
Before you drop your defenses
Tell me just what's on your mind
I've been watching all night from an arm's length
And baby you're drivin' me wild
What can I do
Got my heart set on you
Oh won't you give me that special look
You know that sign
Give me that special look
Let me see those eyes
I've been keepin' myself real visible
Givin' us most every chance
It's a tough situation
Guessing whether you're into a new romance
I won't chase you around like a butterfly
No, I'm different than those other guys
Am I gettin' through
Got my heart set on you
Oh won't you give me that special look
You know that sign
Give me that special look
Let me see those eyes
Maybe you're just too serious
But I think you're just kinda shy
Give me that special look
You know that sign
Why don't you give me that special look
Let me see those eyes
Give me that special look
You know that sign
Won't you give me that special look
Let me see those eyes
Special look
That special look
Why don't you give me that...
Let me see those eyes
Once I had a heart cold as ice
Love to me was only for fun
I'd make a mark for each broken heart
Like notches on the butt of a gun
Once I had a trick up my sleeve
A reputation all over town
I was heartless and cold wherever I'd go
And shot down every young girl I found
Yes, I used to be a moonlight bandit
I used to be a heartbreak kid
Then I met you and the next thing I knew
There I was, whoa, shot full of love
Well, who'd have thought that someone like you
Could take a desperado like me
But, oh, here I am as meek as a lamb
With my bleedin' heart there at your feet
Yes, I used to be a moonlight bandit
I used to be a heartbreak kid
Then I met you and the next thing I knew
There I was, whoa, shot full of love
Yes, I used to be a moonlight bandit
I used to be a heartbreak kid
Then I met you and the next thing I knew
There I was, whoa, shot full of love
Shot full of love
There's a song in your eye that's as blue as the sky
and just looking at you keeps me singing it
there's this music and wine don't it sparkle and shine
and it's one for your money and two to quit
And every day it's getting less hard to be
never together but close sometimes
windows and rain
blue birds and planes
they're never together but they're close sometimes
A boy in New York once captured my heart
but her winter was cold so I had to split
Sweet Tennessee spoke softly to me
Home is your home when you're loving it.
And every day it's getting less hard to be
never together but close sometimes
windows and rain
blue birds and planes
they're never together but they're close sometimes
There's life in these bars when you make believe stars
people and loneliness passing time
a world full of fools sitting glued to that stool
drowning their sadness in rosey wine
And every day it's getting less hard to be
never together but close sometimes
windows and rain
blue birds and planes
they're never together but they're close sometimes
never together but they're close sometimes
So you found me again
Well, this ain't gonna be nothin' like before
Before tonight we couldn't be friends
Find a bar and talk old times
Until they closed the door
Well, I'd even take you home
But I'd rather leave alone
I don't want to get caught in your goodbye eyes again
You say you're sorry for leavin' me
Well, the pain is like the past, it's all just memories
I could fall again this evenin'
But to share the blue that I've been through
Won't let me be that easy
So forgive me if I look away
I'll hear all you have to say
But I won't get caught in your goodbye eyes again
Whoa, tonight I'll sleep alone
But tomorrow I won't find you gone
I'll miss you, but I missed you for so long
I can't miss you anymore
So I've been hidin', tryin'
Not to look in
I don't want to get caught in your goodbye eyes again
So please forgive me if I look away
I'll hear all you have to say
But I won't get caught in your goodbye eyes again
Yes, tonight I'll sleep alone
But tomorrow I won't find you gone
I'll miss you, but I missed you for so long
I can't miss you anymore
So I've been away a lot, tryin' not
To be where you have been
I did not want to get caught in your goodbye eyes again
Whoa, blue, blue ocean, please don't swallow me
I don't want to get caught in your goodbye eyes again
I don't want to get caught in your goodbye eyes again
It isn't such a crime
It isn't such a shame
It happens all the time
You shouldn't take the blame
Go on and have a laugh
Go have a laugh on me
Go on and have a laugh
At all your misery
Maryann, Maryann, I really want to tell you
Maryann, Maryann
I think I love you Maryann, Maryann
I really want to tell you, Maryann, Maryann, Maryann
You take a look around
And all you seem to see
Is bringing you down
As down as you can be
Go on and have a laugh
Go have a laugh on me
Go on and have a laugh
At how bad it can be
Maryann, Maryann, I really want to tell you
Maryann, Maryann
I think I love you Maryann, Maryann
I really want to tell you, Maryann, Maryann, Maryann
Maryann, Maryann, I really want to tell you
Maryann, Maryann
I think I love you Maryann, Maryann
I really want to tell you, Maryann, Maryann, Maryann
It isn't such a crime
It isn't such a shame
It happens all the time
You shouldn't take the blame
Go on and have a laugh
Go have a laugh on me
Go on and have a laugh
At all your misery
Maryann, Maryann, I really want to tell you
Maryann, Maryann
I think I love you Maryann, Maryann
I really want to tell you, Maryann, Maryann, Maryann
I said I really want to tell you
Maryann, Maryann
I think I love you Maryann, Maryann
I really want to tell you, Maryann, Maryann, Maryann
Whoa, I really want to tell you
Maryann, Maryann
I think I love you Maryann, Maryann
I really want to tell you, Maryann, Maryann, Maryann
I really want to tell you
Maryann, Maryann
I think I love you Maryann, Maryann
I really want to tell you, Maryann, Maryann, Maryann
She was her daddy's girl
With her mama's smile
A country boy's dream
She was a lover's child
She had a restless heart
For the city lights
Left her country days
For the city nights
There's just too many heartaches in paradise
There's just too much to pay
Too high a price
You can spend all your love
And never think twice
There's just too many heartaches in paradise
She loved those daydreams
Sunsets
The endless wine
French cigarettes
Then she fell in love
With a rich man's lies
He just used her up
Like his merchandise
There's just too many heartaches in paradise
There's just too much to pay
Too high a price
You can spend all your love
And never think twice
There's just too many heartaches in paradise
Like a fallin' star in the night
Another broken heart fades out of sight
She's goin', she's goin' home
Oh, there's just too many heartaches in paradise
There's just too much to pay
Too high a price
You can spend all your love
And never think twice
There's just too many heartaches
Too many heartaches
You can spend all your love
Just too many heartaches in paradise
Don'tcha, don'tcha, don'tcha get sand in it
I don't wanna feel no sand in it
Don't want no other members of the band in it
Sure don't wanna feel no sand in it
When you're sittin' down by the ocean
On a blanket with the suntan lotion
Don'tcha go gettin' sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' no sand in it
Don'tcha, don'tcha, don'tcha get sand in it
I don't wanna find a baby grand in it
Don't want no other kind of contraband in it
Girl, don't wanna feel no sand in it
Don'tcha know that it would be a pity
If you get your little nitty gritty
Don'tcha go gettin' sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' no sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' no sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' no sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' no sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' no sand in it
Sand in it, sand in it
Don'tcha, don'tcha, don'tcha get sand in it
I don't wanna feel no sand in it
Don't want no other members of the band in it
Don't want no other kind of contraband in it
Don'tcha know that it would be a pity
If you get your little nitty gritty
Don'tcha go gettin' sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' no sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' no sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' no sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' no sand in it
Don'tcha go gettin' no sand in it
There’s a rhythm playin’ down the street
Why not come and take a ride with me
There’s a place outta town
We’ll close it down
Let's go, let's go, let's go
You can feel it right outside your door
(Let’s go) Did you ever want a little more
If you want to have fun
Baby, I’m the one
So let's go, let's go
You talk and talk about it, wastin’ time
I heard your story baby a thousand times
You’re feelin’ sorry for yourself
Why not try it with somebody else
Let's go, let's go, yeah, come on
Don't talk and talk about it, we're wastin’ time
I heard your story baby a thousand times
Instead of sittin’ on a shelf
Why not try it with somebody else
(Let’s go) I sure found it in the summer night
(Let’s go) I’ve got the feelin’ and the feelin’s right
If you want to have fun
Baby, I’m the one
If you want to have fun
Baby, I’m the one
If you want to have fun
Baby, I’m the one
So let’s go (let’s go, let’s go, let’s go)
Let’s – (let’s go, let’s go, let’s go)
Yeah (let’s go, let’s go, let’s go)
Oh baby (let’s go, let’s go, let’s go)
Come on (let’s go, let’s go, let’s go)
Yeah (let’s go, let’s go, let’s go)
Let’s go (let’s go, let’s go, let’s go)
Let’s go (let’s go, let’s go, let’s go)
Let’s go (let’s go, let’s go, let’s go)
Yeah (let’s go, let’s go, let’s go)
Yeah (let’s go, let’s go, let’s go)
Yeah (let’s go, let’s go, let’s go)
I played a weddin' for the money
And I wished I could've told the bride and groom
Just what I think of marriage
And what's in store after their honeymoon
And I was grumblin' to the dancers
About how men and women ought to live apart
And how a promise never made cannot be broken
And can never break your heart
Then suddenly from out of nowhere
A little girl came dancin' cross the floor
And all her crinolines were billowin'
Beneath the skirt of calico she wore
Oh, what a joy fell on the honored guests
As each one of them was drawn into her dream
And they laughed and stamped and clapped their hands
And hollered at her "Dance, little Jean"
And they said, "Dance, little Jean, this day is for you
Two people you love stood up to say I do"
Dance, little Jean a prayer that you had
Was answered today
Your mama's marryin' your dad
Well, my cynical heart just melted
'Cause I figured what this get together meant
How it ended years of tears and sad confusion
That the little girl had spent
And they told the band to pack it up
About the time the couple cut the cake
But we played as long as they stayed
For love and laughs and little Jeannie's sake
And we played, "Dance, little Jean this day is for you
Two people you love stood up to say I do"
Dance, little Jean, a prayer that you had
Was answered today
Your mama's marryin' your dad
Your mama's marryin' your dad
