In a pawn shop in Chicago
On a sunny summer day A couple gazes at the wedding rings There on display (G.J) She smiles n' nods her head As he says, "Honey that's for you, It's not much, but it's the best That I can do." Chorus-both Golden rings (golden ring) with one tiny little stone Waiting there (waiting there) for someone to take you home By itself (by itself) it's just a cold metallic thing Only love can make a golden wedding ring (T.W.) In a little wedding chapel later on that afternoon An old upright piano plays that old familiar tune (G.J.) Tears roll down her cheeks And happy thoughts run through her head As he whispers low, "With this ring, I thee wed." Chorus- both Golden ring (golden ring) with one tiny little stone Shining ring (shining ring) now at last it's found a home By itself (by itself) it's just a cold metallic thing Only love can make a golden wedding ring Ooo-ooo (T.W.) In a small two room apartment As they fought their final round He says, "You won't admit it, But I know you're leavin' town." (G.J.) She says, "One thing's for certain, I don't love you any more." And throws down the ring As she walks out the door Chorus- both Golden ring (golden ring) with one tiny little stone Cast aside (cast aside) like the love that's dead and gone By itself (by itself) it's just a cold metallic thing Only love can make a golden wedding ring (Both) In a pawn shop in Chicago On a sunny summer day A couple gazes at the wedding rings There on display, Golden ring. ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By BRADDOCK, BOBBY / VAN HOY, RAFE Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC |

We're gonna hooooold on We're gonna ho-ho-oh-old on to Each other (T.W.) Life can be rough Sometimes it's kind A real good life Is hard to find But the best love Is the one we've known And the faith we have between us Makes it grow (G.J.)

> The places where we used to meet we go togehter
Step by step like shoes on the feet we go together Just like the sand out in the sea what good is sugar if you have no tea What good're you if you don't have me we go together That old feeling we used to get even feels better There was a girl you made me forget the day I met her Just like the tears in a baby's eyes just like the stars up in the sky Like icecream and an apple pie we go together We go together like the storm and rain just like the fire that needs the flame Just like the picture needs the frame we go together We go together like the moon and June just like the fork needs the spoon Just like the song that needs the tune we go together [Guitar Solo] We go together [Guitar Solo] We go together Yeah the places where we used to meet... We go together like the storm and rain... |

[Tammy Wynette - T.W.]
[George Jones - G.J] [G.J.] You always said someday you'd go to live (In Southern California) And me I'd stay right here in Tennessee You always talked about the better days (In Southern California) But if you'll stay in Tennessee I promise there'll be better days with me [T. W.] It's not that I don't love you But I hear the call (From Southern California) There's something I can't find in Tennessee Silver screens and limousines They wait for me in Southern California Though you've been so good to me The time has come you'll have to set me free [G.J.] Tomorrow when you leave You'll take my heart (To Southern California) But just remember I'll be here To keep your heart with me until you see [T.W. speaks] Well, it's been five years N' I guess I've cried a million tears Lookin' out the window of this little room Right over that flashin' neon sign that says, "Bar" It's almost midnight, An time to go downstairs and go to work I wonder how he's doin' in, Tennessee? [G.J. spoken] Well, here I sit by the window Of this big old lonely mansion Lookin' out over the Smokies And on in everything I can see Oh, I guess by now she's found What she was lookin' for And as I look at this old faded photograph Of the girl that I still love I wonder if she ever, thinks of me [Both] But the weather's good In Southern California. ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By RICHEY, GEORGE/SHERRILL, BILLY/BOWLING, ROGER DALE Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing, Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC, FIGS D MUSIC INC OBO MISSED MEMORIES MUSIC |

By a fountain back in Rome
I fell in love with you In a small cafe in Athens You said you loved me too And it was April in Paris When I first held you close to me Rome, Georgia Athens, Texas And Paris, Tennessee No we're not the jet set We're the old Chevrolet set There's no Riviera In Festus, Missouri And you won't find Onasis In Mullinville, Kansas No, we're not the jet set We're the old Chevrolet set But ain't we got love? No we're not the jet set We're the old Chevrolet set Our steak and martinis Is draft beer with weiners Our Bach and Tchaikovsky Is Haggard and Husky No we're not the jet set We're the old Chevrolet set But ain't we got love? No, we're not the jet set We're the old Chevrolet set The Jones and Wynette set Ain't the flamin' suzette set Our Bach and Tchaikovsky Is Haggard n' ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By BRADDOCK, BOBBY <i>Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC</i> |

We always wanted a big two story house
Back when we lived in that little two room shack We wanted fame and fortune And we'd live life the way the rich folks do We knew some how we'd make it, together me and you With dreams and hopes of things to come We worked and never stopped Not much time for you and me We had to reach the top We bought that big two story house And soon became the envy of the town With all our work behind us We'd finally settled down Now we live (yes we live) in a two story house Whoa, what splendor But there's no love about I've got my story And I've got mine, too How sad it is, we now live, in a two story house The house is filled with rare antiques There's marble on the floor Beauty all around us Like we've never seen before There's chandeliers in every room Imported silks and satin all about We filled the house with everything But somehow left love out Now we live (yes we live) in a two story house Oh what splendor But there's no love about I've got my story And I've got mine, too How sad it is, we now live, in a two story house How sad it is, we now live, in a two story house ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By TUBB/LINDSEY/WYNETTE <i>Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC</i> |

I'd followed me to Texas I'd followed me to Utah
We didn't find it there so we moved on I'd followed you to Alabam things look good in Birmingham We didn't find it there so we moved on I know you're tired of following my elusive dreams and schemes For they're only fleeting things my elusive dreams I had your child in Memphis you heard of work in Nashville We didn't find it there so we moved on To a small farm in Nebraska to a gold mine in Alaska We didn't find it there so we moved on And now we've left Alaska because there was no gold mine But this time only two of us moves on Now all we have is each other and a little memory to cling to And still you won't let me go on alone I know you're tired of following my elusive dreams and schemes For they're only fleeting things my elusive dreams For they're only fleeting things my elusive dreams ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By PUTMAN JR., CLAUDE / SHERRILL, BILLY <i>Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC</i> |

Do you take this man to be your husband?
I'll take this man, and by him I'll stand I promise that we'll never part. To him I'll be true, there'll be no one new From now, till death do us part. Do you take this woman to be your wife? Yes, I'll take this woman. She'll be mine forever. And I'll love her with all of my heart. To have and to hold, our love won't grow cold. I promise. Till death do us part. We'll take each other, from this day forward, Together in sickness or health. United with love, we'll face life together, If we're poor or if we have wealth. For better or worse, you'll always come first And no one can keep us apart. Yes, we'll take each other, forsaking all others. Together, till death do us part. Together, till death do us part. I now pronounce you man and wife. ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By SHERRILL, BILLY/STRICKLAND, JENNY/TAYLOR, CARMOL <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |
