"Something I Haven't Done Yet" lyrics
"Something I Haven't Done Yet"
I could tell when I first saw her
Her daddy was rich
And her mama played bridge in afternoons
And the grace of her slim body said
That she could set a horse
Then dress in lace and waltz across the room
And the way she wore her hair
Was the way her friends wore theirs
And whenever she would smile
They'd all grin
And I wondered as I stood there
Falling more in love with her
If I would have to fall in love with them
All of them
Kissing her was something I never will forget
Loving her was something I never will regret
Knowing her was more than I thought God would let
And forgetting her is something I haven't done yet
It's hard being pretty
And knowing who you are
And stepping down the way she had to do
But we thought love could take the place
Of all the things she had
But God knows there's just so much love can do
And I know that she will never
Be lonesome in her life
There'll be lots of lovers and friends
If I ever have the money
They thought I should have had
I'll never be as rich as I have been
Back when
Kissing her was something I never will forget
Loving her was something I never will regret
Knowing her was more than I thought God would let
And forgetting her is something I haven't done yet

Donna Fargo - "Funny Face" Funny face, I love you
Funny face, I need you
My whole worlds wrapped up in you
When the road I walk seems all up hill
And the colors in my rainbow turn blue
You kiss the tears away
You smile at me...
Vern Gosdin - "Mother Country Music" When my mind is all aclutter from livin' day to day
Your musics like a river I can gently float away
When I'm deep in disappointment and cannot face the night
Your music lifts me up and takes me...

A little too weak - a little too strong?
Was it him? Was it me?
Oh I guess I'll never know
First you're up, then you're down
Oh but the world keeps turning around
Ain't it...
Lefty Frizzell - "Saginaw, Michigan" I was born in Saginaw, Michigan
I grew up in a house on Saginaw Bay
My dad was a poor, hard working Saginaw fisherman
Too many times he came home with too little pay
I loved a girl (I loved a girl)...
