George Jones, Tammy Wynette

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

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

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...

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

If anyone could find the joy
That true love brings a girl and boy
We could, we could, you and I
If anyone could ever say
That their true love was here to stay
We could, we could, you and I
When you're in my arms
I know you're happy to be there
And just as long as I'm with you
I'm happy anywhere
If anyone could pray each night
And thank the Lord that all is right
We could, we could, you and I
When you're in my arms
I know you're happy to be there
And just as long as I'm with you
I'm happy anywhere

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

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.
