Ernest Tubb - Am I That Easy To Forget - lyrics

You say you've found somebody new but that won't stop my loving you
I just can't let you walk away forget the love I have for you
Yes I could find somebody too but I don't want no one but you
How can you leave without regret am I that easy to forget
Before you leave be sure you find you want his love much more than mine
Then I'll just say we've never met if I'm that easy to forget
[ steel ]
Yes I could find somebody too but I don't want no one but you
I couldn't leave without regret you're not that easy to forget
Before you leave be sure...

Ernest Tubb - Big City - lyrics

I'm walking your streets again big city searching every face that I see
Looking for my darling big city the one that you took away from me
You lured her with your night life big city to take her from me you know it was wrong
I'm searching night and day for her big city oh without her love I just can't go on
[ guitar ]
You took my love away from me big city stole her out of my two loving arms
You know I'm gonna hate you big city if you brought my baby any harm
So I'm walking your streets...
The one that you took away from me

Ernest Tubb - (I Know My Baby Loves Me) In Her Own Peculiar Way - lyrics

Now I got a gal just different and though I know she's true
She's never really happy that gal she's feelin' blue
But I know my baby loves me in her own peculiar way
Yes my baby really loves me in her own peculiar way
Now I left her my apartment when I was out of town
When I got back I found that she had to burn the building down
But I know my baby loves me in her own peculiar way
Yes my baby really loves me in her own peculiar way
[ guitar ]
Now she took occurs and cooking and filled my heart with glee
Till I detected poison in the cake she baked for me
But I know my baby loves me in her own peculiar way
Yes my baby really loves me in her own peculiar way
Now she went down to the corner to catch a picture show
She said I'll see you later but that was twenty years ago
But I know my baby loves me in her own peculiar way
Yes my baby really loves me in her own peculiar way

Ernest Tubb - Are You Mine (feat. Loretta Lynn) - lyrics

Are you mine all life through will you kiss me when I'm blue
Will you whisper I love you and make all my dreams come true
Will you share the good and bad bring me joy when I am sad
Tell me darling are you mine and only mine
Are you mine (yes I am) all the time (yes I am)
Mine alone (yes sirree) all my own (all your own)
No one else will ever do I'll be yours and I'll be true
Don't worry dear have no fear cause I'm yours
[ steel ]
Are you mine tell me dear will I always have you near
Will the love light always shine in your heart just like in mine
Will you give as well as take keep the vows that you will make
Tell me darling are you mine and only mine
Are you mine (yes I am) all the time (oh yes I am)
Mine alone (you're only one) all my own (absolutely)
No one else will ever do...
[ guitar ]
Are you mine rich or poor tell me darling are you sure
Will you whisper yes I do and forever love me true
Will you honor and obey will you promise not to stray
Tell me darling are you mine and only mine
Are you mine (yes I am)...
Don't worry dear have no fear cause I'm yours

Ernest Tubb - A Dear John Letter - lyrics

Dear John oh how I hate to write dear John I must let you know tonight
That my love for you has died away like grass upon the lawn
And tonight I wed another dear John
I was overseas in battle when the mail called up to me
And they handed me a letter why I was happy as could be
For the fighting was all over and the battle had been won
Then I opened up the letter and that started Dear John
Dear John oh how I hate to write...
Will you please send back my picture my husband wants it now
And when I tell you who I'm marrying well you won't care dear anyhow
Now the ceremony has started and I'll wed your brother Don
Will you wish us happiness forever dear John
And tonight I wed another dear John

Ernest Tubb - Before I Met You - lyrics

I thought I had seen pretty girls in my time but that was before I met you
I never saw one that I wanted for mine but that was before I met you
I thought I was swinging the world by the tail I thought I could never be blue
I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved but that was before I met you
[ piano - steel ]
I wanted to ramble and always be free but that was before I met you
I said that no woman could ever hold me but that was before I met you
I thought I was swinging...
[ guitar ]
I thought I was swinging...
Yes that was before I met you

Ernest Tubb - Bring Your Heart Home - lyrics

Bring your heart home quit your wandering don't you get tired of living alone
I'll be waiting if you ever change your mind and bring your heart home
Bring your heart home break the change loose restless chains on your shuckled mind
I still loove you and you're welcome love still lives here bring your heart home
[ steel ]
Bring your heart home...
Love still lives here bring your heart home

Ernest Tubb - A Dime At A Time - lyrics

My whole life saving's a two dollar bill that's why I'm here tonight I've got time to kill
Now I can tell my story about twenty times
With two dollars in the jukebox a dime at a time
Two dollars in the jukebox a dime at a time
Play that same old song about the love gone wrong till closin' time
Two dollars ought to do me if you'll buy the wind
And I put it in the jukebox a dime at a time
[ guitar ]
Pardon me Mister mind if I sit down misery likes company and I believe that I found
Somebody just as lonely don't believe I'm wrong
If you had a place to go to you'd have done been gone
Two dollars in the jukebox...

Ernest Tubb - Afraid To Care - lyrics

Here I go again love's standing at my door
I'm so afraid to take a chance for I've been hurt before
It's not that I can't love you your life I'd like to share
But my heart's been broken so many times it's just afraid to care
Maybe time will ease the pain and someday I can love again
My heart can't stand a new affair
It's loved and lost so many times it's just afraid to care
[ steel ]
Maybe time will ease the pain...

Ernest Tubb - Bartender (feat. Loretta Lynn) - lyrics

Please listen to me bartender I've got something on my mind
I think I'd might feel better after one more glass of wine
I'm payin' for a broken heart the price of love is high
With nothing left to live for what's there to do but die
(I know your story honey they're all the same you see
Why I knew the minute that you walked in you want to talk to me
But I've learned what you don't read in books from words that cost this bar
I've seen them come and I've seen them drink
Till they don't even know who they are
Now I don't believe that honky tonk is a place for a girl like you
I might be wrong but you don't look right sittin' there on that barstool
It's not too late so stop and think before all of your pride is gone
You can end up like all the rest with a barroom for your home)
I know you're right bartender goodnight I'm going home
