TAKE
ME BACK TO THE COUNTRY
(Dolly
Parton)
Well
this big city life is gettin'me down
There's
just too many people around
There's
dirt in the air and crime in the street
High-rise
buildings and cold concrete
This
rat race sure enough takes a toll
I
wanna run off to my fishin'hole
Take
me back take me back
Take
me back to the country
Take
me back take me back
Take
me back to the country
Chorus:
Where
the stars at night
Outshine
those city lights
Take
me back to the country
Where
te eagles fly
And
the treetops touch the sky
Take
me back to the country
This
traffic jam is a makin'me mad
I
miss the simple life I had
Peace
and quiet runnin'free
I
wanna go home to my family
I'm
sick of the clock, sick of the phone
Out
in the country my time's my own
Take
me back take me back
Take
me back to the country
Take
me back take me back
Take
me back to the country
Chorus:
Where
the stars at night
Outshine
those city lights
Take
me back to the country
Where
te eagles fly
And
the treetops touch the sky
Take
me back to the country
Where
the stars at night
Outshine
those city lights
Take
me back to the country
Where
te eagles fly
And
the treetops touch the sky
Take
me back to the country
Take
me back to the country. |
THE
MOON, THE STARS AND ME
(Dolly
Parton)
Tonight
I feel a chill in the air
As
cold as that look on your face
I
hear what you're saying but coming from you
Goodbye
seems so out of place
Now
how can you stand there and honestly say
There
never were any real promises made
Chorus:
The
moon is my witness
The
stars will agree
They
all heard your promise
You'd
always love me
I
know that it's true
But
it's hard to believe
You
lied to the moon
The
stars and me
And
what about all of those warm tender nights
Did
they mean nothing to you
And
where are the feelings I thought that we shared
Or
have you forgotten them too
Did
you think I could just put your memory behind
When
your words are still so very clear in my mind
Chorus:
The
moon is my witness
The
stars will agree
They
all heard your promise
You'd
always love me
I
know that it's true
But
it's hard to believe
You
lied to the moon
The
stars and me
The
moon is my witness
The
stars will agree
They
all heard your promise
You'd
always love me
I
know that it's true
But
it's hard to believe
You
lied to the moon
The
stars and me
I
know that it's true
But
it's hard to believe
You
lied to the moon
The
stars and me
You
lied. |
TIME
FOR ME TO FLY
(Dolly
Parton)
I've been around for you
Been up and down for you
But I just can't get any
relief
I've swallowed my pride
for you
I've lived and lied for
you
But you still make me feel
like a thief
You've got me stealing your
love away
'Cause you never give it
Peelin' the years away
And we can't relieve it
I make you laugh and you
make me cry
I believe it's time for
me to fly
Chorus:
Time for me to fly
I've got to set myself free
Time for me to fly
That's how it's got to be
I know it hurts to say goodbie
But it's time for me to
fly
You said we'd work it out
You said that you had no
doubt
I thought we were really
in love
Oh but I'm tired to holding
on
To a feeling I know is gone
I do believe I've had enough
I've had enough of the falseness
Of a worn out relation
Enough of this jealousy
and intoleration
I wonder why I even try
I believe it's time for
me to fly
Chorus:
Time for me to fly
I've got to set myself free
Time for me to fly
That's how it's got to be
I know it hurts to say goodbie
But it's time for me to
fly
Time for me to fly
I've got to set myself free
Time for me to fly
That's how it's got to be
I make you laugh and you
make me cry
I believe it's time for
me to fly
Time for me to fly to fly
That's how it's got to be
I know it hurts to say goodbie
But it's time for me to
fly. |
YELLOW
ROSES
(Dolly
Parton)
Hello
you said the day we met
Handing
me a yellow rose
You
asked me out
And
to your surprise
And
to mine I said I'd go
I
thought is so romantic
And
I found you sweet and bold
Thought
we'd only met
I
still said yes
To
a single yellow rose
And
for years to come
You
were the one
To
sleep with me at night
To
laugh and talk
And
share my thoughts
And
hold me when I'd cry
And
on every rare occasion
And
for no good reason to
A
big bouquet or a single yellow rose
Was
sent from you
Chorus:
Yellow
roses
The
color of sunshine
You
loved me at one time
Why
did you have to go
Yellow
roses
Are
you sending your new love
My
bright yellow rose buds
I
still love you so
I never
see a yellow rose
That
I don't think of you
It's
still my favorite flower
Thought
the yellow turn to blue
The
day you left my teardrops fell
Upon
your farewell note
You
said goodbye like you said hello
With
a single yellow rose
Chorus:
Yellow
roses
The
color of sunshine
You
loved me at one time
Why
did you have to go
Yellow
roses
Are
you sending your new love
My
bright yellow rose buds
Oh
I still love you so
Yellow
roses
The
color of sunshine
You
loved me at one time
Why
did you have to go
Sweet
yellow roses
Are
you sending your new love
My
bright yellow rose buds
I
still love you so. |
