Lyrics:
of cotton
Oh Lordy
Pick a bale a day
On top of old Smokey
All covered with snow
I lost my true lover
By courting so slow
For courting's a pleasure
were leaving
Now the days go by so fast
And it's one more day up in the canyons
And it's one more night in Hollywood
If you think that I could be
of cotton
Oh Lordy, pick a bale a day
On Top of Old Smoky
On top of Old Smokey, all covered with snow
I lost my true lover by courting so slow
For
keep on spending sunny days this way
We're gonna talk and laugh our time away
I feel it coming closer day by day
Life would be ecstasy, you and me
are out, down in this dirty little town
Well now the world is dark and funny, better listen up to what I say
You ain't gonna know what's going on by
Out on the west down by Santa Fe
I met a cowboy ridin' the range one day
And as he jogged along I heard him singing
A most peculiar cowboy song
Not a day goes by
Not a single day
But you're somewhere a part of my life
And it looks like you'll stay
As the days go by
I keep thinking when
that
Changes it every day
Says it doesn't matter
Bases are loaded and Casey's at bat
Playin' it play by play
Time to change the batter
And we
loves the world she cannot know
The news he brings her speaks of time gone by
But she looks on to better days
Better days, better days, better days
wonderin' if it's going to be us one day
Better live this one life we got (oh)
'Cause these are the days
That are going to fly by like lightning so they
tell you man, if you good
You better chop dat stone like wood
Then tomorrow gonna be a big day
You get another shilling in you pay
'Cause from sun
a walk outside
I'd like to get to know you a little better baby
God knows that I really have tried
My what a good day for a take-out bride
I'd like
that
Changes it every day
Says it doesn't matter
Bases are loaded and Casey's at bat
Playin' it play by play
Time to change the batter
And we
many days you passed me by
See the tears standin' in my eyes
You didn't stop to make me feel better
By leavin' me a card or a letter
Mister Postman
I was standing by the window
On a cold and cloudy day
When I saw the hearse come rolling
To carry my mother away
Will the circle be unbroken
be proud
Will be proud
Wohh
Better day
Better day
Better day
Better day
Better day
Pray for better day
Better Day
Better day
Better day
Better day
would've left by now
But you're the only one that knows me
Better than I know myself
I get kind of dark
Let it go to far
I can be obnoxious at times
want me by your side
You got to be prepared to keep the man satisfied
I want my baby
(That's enough)
I don't mean maybe
(That's enough)
Every day
Yea
She said you better stay, stay right where you are
I might get knocked down by a falling star
Set you straight before you hurt yourself
ashamed
To turn, turn, will be our delight
'Til by turning, turning, we come round right
'Tis the gift to have friends and a true friend to be,
'Tis
Brother, there's a reckonin' a-comin'
In the mornin'
And you better get you ready 'cause
I'm givin' you the warnin'
Everybody wanna have a wonderful
Time up
something that can be done by two
For I'd really like to stay
It's a lovely day today
And whatever you've got to do
I'd be so happy to be doing it with
sweeter every day
The little things you do and say
If only you could see you through my eyes
You just get better all the time
Oh, and I get the feelin' we
lying, then you better not stay
But we could be safer, just for one day
Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh, just for one day
