George Jones, Tammy Wynette - 16 Biggest Hits [compilation] (1999) by George Jones, Tammy Wynette (보컬) on maniadb.com

Take me, take me to your darkest room
Close every window and bolt every door
The very first moment I heard your voice
I'd be in darkness no more

Take me to your most barren desert
A thousand miles from the nearest sea
The very moment I saw your smile
It would be like heaven to me

There's not any mountain to rugged to climb
No desert too barren to cross
Darlin', if you would just show a sign
Of love, I could bear with all loss

Take me to Siberia
And the coldest weather of the winter time
And it would be just like spring in California
As long as I knew you were mine

Yes, it would be just like spring in California
As long as I knew you were mine

Take me, take me

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.

We're gonna hooooold on
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.)
Some love lives
And some love don't
We've got the kind
Of love we want

It brings us happiness
All through the day
And nothin' can ever make
It go away

(both)
We're gonna hooooold on
We're gonna hooooold on
We're gonna ho-ho-oh-old on to
Each other

(both)
Time will tell
If you're right or wrong
We know we're right
By holdin' on

And the future is set for you and me
Filled with love
The way we both want it to be

(both)
We're gonna hooooold on
We're gonna hooooold on
We're gonna ho-ho-oh-old on to
Each other

We're gonna hooooold on
We're gonna hooooold (we're gonna) on
FADES-
We're gonna ho-ho-oh-old...

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.

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'

There's just one place for me
Near you

It's like heaven to be
Near you

Times when we're apart
And I can't face my heart

Say you'll never stay
More than just two lips away

If my hours could be spent
Near you

I'd be more than content
Near you

Make my life worth while
By telling me that I'll
Spend the rest of my days
Near you

near you - near you
Make my life worth while
By telling me that I'll spend the rest of my days
Near you

Spend the rest of my days
Near you

All my friends told me we'd never make it;
That love, to you, was just a game you played.
And I'll admit at times we had rough goin',
But in each other's arms we loved it away.
And I've been told my love could never hold you;
To tie it down's a price you'd never pay.
And I'll admit there's times when you got restless,
But in each other's arms we loved it away.
Step by step we walked the road together.
Hand in hand, love grew more everyday
When trouble came we held on to each other,
And in each other's arms we loved it away.
And in each other's arms we loved it away.

[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 © EMI Music Publishing, Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC, FIGS D MUSIC INC OBO MISSED MEMORIES MUSIC

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
