Well, on a Friday night you draw your pay
And you take in the town
You leave me at home just to lose my mind
For you're out messin' around.
But it's four in the morning and you stagger in
And you sure look a mess
With a smile on your face and out stretched arms
And a bargain basement dress.
I wouldn't wear that dress to a dogfight
If that side was free
And the bargain basemant dress ain't enough
To get your arms around me.
Well, you say when a man worls hard all week
He deserves to play or rest
But honey, that ain't so, get out of my sight
With that bargain basement dress.
--- Instrumental ---
I wouldn't wear that dress to a dogfight
If that side was free
And the bargain basemant dress ain't enough
To get your arms around me.
Now, I've took all I'm a gonna take
And I'm a leavin' you the rest
Tell you what I'll do, I'll just leave you
That bargain basement dress.
Tell you what I'll do, I'll just leave you
That old bargain basement dress...
Dark moon, a way up high, up in the sky
Oh, tell me why, oh, tell me why, you've lost your splendor
Dark moon, why is the 'cause, your light withdraws
Is it because, is it because, I've lost my love.
Mortals have dreams of love's perfect schemes
But they don't realize that love can sometimes bring.
Dark moon, a way up high, up in the sky
Oh, tell me why, oh, tell me why, you've lost your splendor
Dark moon, why is the 'cause, your light withdraws
Is it because, is it because, I've lost my love.

It's such a pretty world today, I look at the sunshine
And every day's the same since I met you
It's such a pretty world today knowin' that you're mine
And happinsess is being close to you.
And though the rain may fall my skies will all be blue
If I look close enough the sun would come shinin' through
It's such a pretty world today look at the sunshine
Today and every day since I met you.

Though the rain may fall my skies will all be blue

It's such a pretty world today look at the sunshine
Today and every day since I met you.
I'm a girl from state of old Kentucky
My mommy said she didn't want me from the start
Since the first day I was born I follow trouble
Too much hate without some love can't free the heart.
Me alone against the world and all that's in it
I choose every wrong companion I can find
And the hate that grows within me I can't conquer
Life itself has left me with a twisted mind.
And I met a man and realized I loved him
Told him I would change if I could be his wife
But he laughed at me and said he didn't love me
I did all I knew to do I took his life.
Oh, I can't live without you and I'm barely livin' with you
I can't get her off your mind and I can't set you free
When you look at one another your look tells me you love her
And that's the part that slowly killing me.
Oh, what's this other woman done to you
She can't ever love you like I do
Cry tears enough to drown me, heartache's closing in around me.
And that's the part that slowly killing me.
--- Instrumental ---
Oh, what's this other woman done to you
Why she can't ever love you like I do
I'd die the night you leave me, I cry but you don't see me
And that's the part that slowly killing me.
I'm gonna wipe these teardrops from my eyes
There ain't no use for me to cry
And there's some things I think I need to say
I'll think about you every day, every day while you're away.
I'll be true to you honey, while you're gone
If you're not gone too long
But if you're gone for a year or two
It may be too long for me to be true.
I might find somebody else
'Cause I get lonesome by myself
I'll be the truest love you've known
And for a while I'll stay at home.
I'll be true to you honey, while you're gone
If you're not gone too long
But if you're gone for a year or two
It may be too long for me to be true.
--- Instrumental ---
Tomorrow you'll be gone I know
So love me now before you go.
We don't know
What's farther down the road.
There may be a detour sign
To upset plans of yours and mine
I'll be true to you honey, while you're gone
If you're not gone too long.
But if you're gone for a year or two
It may be too long for me to be true.
I might find somebody else
'Cause I get lonesome by myself
I'll be the truest love you've known
And for a while I'll stay at home.
If it's over between us, what now
Can't forget you 'cause I don't know how
Oh, what will I do, where do I go from you
If it's over between us, what now
If my heart's been deserted, what now
Can't I stop it from beating somehow
If there's no more you and I
That I'll want to die.
If it's over between us, what now
I keep asking where did our love go
You won't tell me and I sure don't know
All I know is what's left is our love.
Worse and dead if it's over between us, what now
If it's over between us, what now?
