don williams - amanda

Iââ?¬â?¢ve held it all inward, Lord knows Iââ?¬â?¢ve tried
Itââ?¬â?¢s an awful awakeningââ?¬â?¢ in a country boyââ?¬â?¢s life
To look in the mirror in total surprise
At the hair on your shoulders and the age in your eyes

CHORUS:
Amanda light of my life
Fate should of made you a gentlemenââ?¬â?¢s wife
Amanda light of my life
Fate should of made you a gentlemenââ?¬â?¢s wife

Well a measure of people donââ?¬â?¢t understand
The pleasures of life in a hillbilly band
I got my first guitar when I was fourteen
Now Iââ?¬â?¢m crowdingââ?¬â?¢ thirty and still wearingââ?¬â?¢ jeans

don williams - all i 039 m missing is you

I go to places we like to go
I do the things we like to do
Familiar faces we both know
All Iââ?¬â?¢m missing is you

Donââ?¬â?¢t ask me how Iââ?¬â?¢m getting along
Cause thereââ?¬â?¢s really nothing new
Everythingââ?¬â?¢s about the same since youââ?¬â?¢ve gone
All Iââ?¬â?¢m missing is you

The same ole memories are just as strong
Same ole dreams donââ?¬â?¢t come true
That same ole feeling goes on and on
All Iââ?¬â?¢m missing is you

don williams - back in my younger days

Back in my younger days, I used to go all night
Now I just stay at home, and everything is all right
Back when I first met you, I used to live in a haze
That was so long ago, back in my younger days

I would do anything, just a stumbling fool
Itâ??s a wonder Iâ??m standing here, Iâ??ve broken so many rules
Now I dance with you every night, and still Iâ??m so amazed
Your love made a man of me, back in my younger days

Oh, it doesnâ??t seem that long ago
You, you make it feel like the first time we made love
And I ainâ??t ever getting enough
Well, well, well....

As I go through the photographs, I laugh and turn the page
Its the ballad of me and you, from such an innocent age
Talk about a dream come true, we reinvented a phrase
Its better than it used to be, back in my younger days

Back in my younger days, Back in my younger days
Its better than it used to be, back in my younger days

don williams - broken heartland

He climbs up on his John Deere shoves a plug of redman in his jaw
His eyes stretch cross the valley way down to where they're puttin' up a mall
His baseball cap says Kansas the Washington says how much he can grow
There's a bank note in his pocket that says in thirty days they'll have his home
It's hard living in a broken heartland it's enough to break a man and his beliefs
Lord give him strength to mend this broken heartland
Cause he's living proof of a dying breed

His sons gone off to college learning skills that'll get him off the farm
And his wife just keeps it all inside still he finds his only comfort in her arms
And this tractors been his treasure oh how could an auction measure its true worth
And every night he asks the father that he may never lose this mother earth
It's hard living in a broken heartland...
Lord give him strength...

don williams - love me tonight

don williams - tomorrow is a long time

WITH THE POZO SECO SINGERS
WRITER BOB DYLAN

If today was not an endless highway,
If tonight was not a crooked trail,
If tomorrow wasn't such a long time,
Then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all.
Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin',
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin',
Only if she was lyin' by me,
Then I'd lie in my bed once again.

I can't see my reflection in the waters,
I can't speak the sounds that show no pain,
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps,
Or can't remember the sound of my own name.
Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin',
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin',
Only if she was lyin' by me,
Then I'd lie in my bed once again.

There's beauty in the silver, singin' river,
There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky,
But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty
That I remember in my true love's eyes.
Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin',
Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin',
Only if she was lyin' by me,
Then I'd lie in my bed once again.

don williams - a handful of dust

Handful of dust, handfuls of dust,
True love makes perfect these handsfuls of dust.

Well break us down by our elements,
And you might think He failed.
Weâ??re not copper for one penny or even iron for one nail.
And a dollar would be plenty to buy twenty of us
'Til true love is added to these handfuls of dust.

A handful of dust, a handful of dust
Sums up the richest and poorest of us
And true love makes priceless the worthless
Whenever it is added to these hands fulls of dust.

However small though our worth may be,
When shared between two hearts.
Is ever more than it would ever be
Measured on itâ??s own apart.
And our half what it could be
Is now twice what it was
When true love is added to these hands fulls of dust.

A handful of dust, a handful of dust
Sums up the richest and poorest of us
And true love makes priceless the worthless
Whenever it is added to these hands fulls of dust
Hands fulls of dust

Sums up the richest and poorest of us
And true love makes priceless the worthless
Whenever it is added to these hands fulls of dust

don williams - ain 039 t it amazing

Iâ??ve never had a face youâ??d notice
The world never took much notice of me
Iâ??ve never been good at conversation
I was too busy tripping on my own feet

Iâ??ve never had grand illusions
Love was always for someone else
But in a world, so few surprises
Thereâ??s still a few surprises left

Ainâ??t it amazing, that miracles happen
Ainâ??t it amazing, you can still find your dream
Ainâ??t it amazing, it all comes true
When someone like you can happen to someone like me

So hold me now so warm beside you
Let me stay forever near
Sometimes I think Iâ??m only dreaming
But I wake up, youâ??re still here

don williams - another place another time

Oh it's late I know I should be leaving
We've both got someone waiting we'll have to go
And it's so strange to think that I just met you
I almost wish I'd met you long ago
In your eyes I see a certain look and that same look must be in mine
And who knows just what we might have been another place another time

I'll admit in time that I'll forget you
Cause the truth is I still love her after all
But even though we knew it couldn't happen
For a moment we felt something oh so strong
And in your eyes...
And who knows just what we might have been another place another time

don williams - atta way to go

Atta way to go you finally broke it off
Atta way to go we canâ??t even talk or cry
Or even wonder why that a way to go

Didnâ??t you believe me when I loved you
I guess you thought we were playing games
All this time I tried to think Iâ??ve known you
I guess I really only knew your name

Atta way to go you finally broke it off
Atta way to go we canâ??t even talk or cry
Or even wonder why that a way to go

I thought you knew I lived my life just for you
There was just no price to big to pay
And even though I know I still live for you
The feelingâ??s that you show wonâ??t let me stay

don williams - back on the street again

Iââ?¬â?¢m back on the street again
Got to stand on my own two feet again
Iââ?¬â?¢m walking that lonely beat again
Remembering when, whoa, whoa, remembering when

Got a tear in my eye again
To remind me that I might cry again
Feeling sad & wondering why again
Remembering when, whoa, whoa, remembering when

I remember a time when I thought the world was mine
The world belongs to somebody else now
And Iââ?¬â?¢m just standing in line

So Iââ?¬â?¢m thinking of me again
Thatââ?¬â?¢s the way itââ?¬â?¢s got to be again
Iââ?¬â?¢ll wait & Iââ?¬â?¢ll see till then
Remembering when, whoa, whoa, remembering when

I remember a time when I thought the world was mine.
The world belongs to somebody else now
And Iââ?¬â?¢m just standing in line

So Iââ?¬â?¢m thinking of me again
Thatââ?¬â?¢s the way itââ?¬â?¢s got to be again
Iââ?¬â?¢ll wait & Iââ?¬â?¢ll see till then
Remembering when, whoa, whoa, remembering when

Whoa, whoa, remembering when

don williams - beautiful woman

Iâ??ve been talking to a beautiful woman, all night long
And I donâ??t know if Iâ??m coming or going, feels so strong

Thereâ??s a look in her eyes itâ??s turning me on
Something inside says the bad time is gone
Wonder why itâ??s taken so long

Iâ??ve been looking for a beautiful woman, all my life
Love can hit you when you donâ??t see it coming, but thatâ??s alright

All the love in the world, stepped into my life
Iâ??m feeling so good, I could never describe
Open your eyes canâ??t you see
Baby what youâ??re doing to me

All the love in the world, stepped into my life,
Feeling so good, I could never describe.
Open your eyes, canâ??t you see

Iâ??ve been talking to a beautiful woman, all night long
And I donâ??t know if Iâ??m coming or going, feels so strong

All the love in the world, stepped into my life
Feeling so good, I could never describe
Open your eyes canâ??t you see
Baby what youâ??re doing to me

Iâ??ve been talking to a beautiful woman, all night long
And I donâ??t know if Iâ??m cominâ?? or going, feels so strong
Iâ??ve been talking to a beautiful woman
And I donâ??t know if Iâ??m coming or going

don williams - catfish bates

They call me Catfish Bates
'Cause I can catch a catfish anytime I want to
Even when the moon man tells me they wonâ??t bite
They call me Catfish Bates
'Cause I know where that big ole flatheadâ??s a hiddinâ??.
Iâ??m a gonna take him home with me tonight

I am the king of Looseyhatchie
My home is on the river
And them catfish they all know me by my sigh
I keep my nose on the westwind
My eye on the water
And my mind on my business all the time

Well I get me a plug a days worth of tobacco
And a can a big ole redworms
I go down to where the rivers runninâ?? strong
I throw my hook out on the water
I let it float on down the channel
And Iâ??ll have me a big ole flathead â??for too long

Oh when they bury me I want to be somewhere on the river
With a big ole flathead layinâ?? on my stone
And them catfish will all be prayin
Theyâ??ll be flatheads up in heaven
So my ghost will leave them hatchie cats alone

don williams - come early morning

I been walking, walking in the moonlight
Tripping in the starlight, Lord and Iâ??m feeling down
Walking in the shadows, sneaking down a side road
Come early morning Iâ??ll be there on the edge of town

I was a thinking, thinking â??bout a good thing
Thinking bout a sweet dream, in my honeyâ??s eyes
And I was a sinkingâ??, feeling kind of lonesome
Come early morning Iâ??ll be home at my honeyâ??s side

Refrão:
I have drifted up across the mountain
and I have stumbled down the other side
And Iâ??ve been tempted, tried and troubled
Come early morning Iâ??ll be home and satisfied

She give me little loving, gives me little sunshine
Makes me have a good time, Lord when Iâ??m feelingâ?? blue
I couldnâ??t refuse her, well I couldnâ??t misuse her
Come early morning Iâ??ll be home with my honey dew
