Waylon Jennings Album

[No lyrics]

(Jim Webb)

Spring was never waiting for us girl
It ran one step ahead as we followed in the dance
Between the parted pages and were pressed
In love's hot fevered iron like a strip-ed pair of pants.

Mac Arthur Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
But I don't think that I can take it Lord
It took so long to bake it
I'll never had that recipe again, oh no.

I recall the yellow cotton dress
foaming like a wave on the ground around your knees
And birds like tender babies in your hands
The old man playing checkers by the trees.

Mac Arthur Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
But I don't think that I can take it Lord
It took so long to bake it
I'll never had that recipe again, oh no.

--- Instrumental ---

There will be another song for me for and I will sing it
There will be another dream for me someone will bring it
I will taste the wine while it is warm
and never let you catch me looking in the sun
But after all the loves of my life
after all the loves of my life you'll still be the one.

I will take my life into my hands and I will use it
I will win the worship in their eyes and I will lose it
And my passions flow like rivers from the sky
But after all the loves of my life after all the loves of my life
I'll still be along wondering why.

Mac Arthur Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
But I don't think that I can take it Lord
It took so long to bake it
I'll never had that recipe again, oh no...

Delia wo oh oh oh Delia
Where have you been so long
Everybody's talking about Delia
They say she's done me wrong

They took my Delia to the graveyard
Took her in a long black hearse
If I hadn't a shot my poor Delia
I believe she'd a got me first

Delia's gone

I went down to the graveyard
To look at my Delias face
I said Delia girl how I loved you
How I wish I could take your place

Jailer oh Jailer
Tell me how can I sleep
When all around my bed side
I hear little Delias feet

Delia's gone

Some gave Delia a dollar
Some gave her two or three
But I didn't give Delia a penny
Cause she belonged to me

Delia's gone Delia's gone

(Red Lane)

I hear the echo of your footsteps
They're right in step with marching time
Since you've walked out of my life and out of my world Please walk on out of my mind.

--- Instrumental ---

I know you're hidin' there in the darkness
And it's got me running scared and blind
Since you've walked out of my life out of my world
Please walk on out of my mind.

--- Instrumental ---

You've got footprints all over my mem'ries
I must erase them if I can
You keep stumbling through my hopes and dreams
Kickin' around my future plans.

You've got me walking round in circles
Looking for something I'll never find
Since you've walked out of my life and out of my world Please walk on out of my mind...

Anita, come closer
Stop crying and listen to me
I guess it's too late now
But somehow I must make you see.
What we thought was our world
Was only a dream world
And we just can't go on like this
Anita, you're dreaming
Of a world that can never exist.

Anita, it's over
There's nothing that's left now to say
Anita, you're dreaming
And I know it's better this way.

--- Instrumental ---

Anita, come closer
And close your pretty blue eyes
Your young dreams just can't be
And somehow you must realize.
And each time you're with me
My conscience reminds me
Of someone who's waiting alone
Anita, you're dreaming
And when you awake, I'll be gone.

Anita it's over
There's nothing that's left now to say
Anita, you're dreaming
And I know it's better this way...

Everybody knows you've been steppin' on my toes
And I'm gettin' pretty tired of it
You keep a steppin' out of line
You're messin' with my mind
If you had any sense you'd quit

Bridge:
'Cause ever since you were a little bitty teeny girl
You said I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinkin' then you'll find
You got the only daddy that'll walk the line

I keep a workin' every day all you want to is play
I'm tired of stayin' out all night
I'm comin' unglued
From your funny little moods
Now Honey baby that ain't right

bridge
riff (2x)
solo
riff (2x)

You keep a packin' up my clothes nearly everybody knows
That you're still just a puttin' me on
But when I start a walkin'
Gonna hear you start a squawkin'
And beggin' me to come back home

bridge

You got the only daddy that'll walk the line

(Waylon Jennings - Don Bowman)
Waylon Jenning & Willie Nelson

Someone's gonna get hurt before you're through
Someone's gonna pay for the things you do
How many hearts must break how many it's gonna take
To satisfy you just to satisfy you.

Another love another fool to play your game
Another love another fool they're all the same
Someone's gonna get hurt before you're through
Someone's gonna pay for the things you do.

You're gonna find when it's too late
Heart that just won't break
Just to satisfy you
Just to satisfy you.

--- Instrumental ---

How many hearts must break
How many will it take
To satisfy you
Just to satisfy you.

Just to satisfy you
Satisfy you
Just to satisfy you.

Someone's gonna get hurt before you're through
Someone's gonna pay for the things you do
You're gonna find when it's too late
Heart that just won't break.

Just to satisfy you.
Just to satisfy you.
Just to satisfy you.
Satisfy you.
Just to satisfy you...

(Ricci Mareno - Gordon Galbraith)

Waylon Jennings & Anita Carter

Don't get no attention from the people on street
They don't even see us they just step right on our feet
Just two unnoticed people in this great big world are we
And when I think about it yes that's all we'll ever be.

But I got you and you got me
And if they look they can see that we don't care
I got you and you got me
And baby that's all we will ever need.

--- Instrumental ---

Looking through the window of a fancy diamond store
Going window shopping for the things we can't afford
People all around us with their noses in the air
They walk right on by us just like we're not even there.

But I got you and you got me
And if they look they can see that we don't care
I got you and you got me
And baby that's all we will ever need.

--- Instrumental ---

I got you and you got me
And if they look they can see that we don't care
I got you and you got me
And baby that's all we will ever need.

--- Instrumental ---

I got you and you got me
And baby that's all we will ever need...

(Mel Tillis)

You've painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair
Ruby, are you contemplating going out somewhere
The shadows on the wall tell me the sun is going down
Oh, Ruby don't take your love to town.

It wasn't me that started that old crazy Asian war
But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chores
I know Ruby, that I'm not the man I used to be
But Ruby, I still need your company.

--- Instrumental ---

It's hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralized
And the wants and the needs of a woman your age Ruby I realize
But I've heard them say it won't be long until I'm not around
Oh Ruby, don't take your love to town.

She's leaving now for I just heard the slammin' of the door
The way I know I've heard it slam a hundred times before
If I could move I'd get my gun and put her in the ground
Oh Ruby, don't take your love to town...
