Tammy wynette and george jones
(bobby braddock)
16 biggest hits- tammy wynette and george jones
Transcriber - awcantor@aol.com
(g.j.)
I've got a real important job
In a large office buildin'
Ridin' people in an elevator
I drive a '57 chevrolet
With busted tail lights
Burned out valves
And a leaky radiator
I wear a twenty dollar suit
I bought from j.c. penney's
Back in 1962
But i've got somethin' to brag about
Somethin' to brag about
Somethin' to brag about in you
(t.w.)
I'm a short-order cook
At an all night cafe
Down on 18th avenue and 12th street
I wear a swingin' mini dress
That i made for myself
>from mama's kitchen curtains
And old bed sheets
I've got 17 pages
Of top value stamps
And one old pair of shoes
But i've got somethin' to brag about
Somethin' to brag about
Somethin' to brag about in you
When you're with the fellas, i know
You start braggin' 'bout
My hour glass figure
And my big brown eyes
(g.j.)
Tell 'em
You tell your girlfriends 'bout my
Sweet, sweet lovin'
And that's one better that
Money can't buy
(both)
So let's lget married
In the not-to-distant future
We'll rent a little flat
On 29th street
You know we'll hang our washin'
On the clothes line from the window
We'll feast on corn bread, butter beans and lunch meat
We won't have a thermostat
A big long cadillac
But we'll have a love that's true
(g.j.)
Love has, somethin' to brag about
(t.w.)
Yeah and i'll have, somethin' to brag about
(both)
Yeah, somthin' to brag about in you.

Transcriber - awcantor@aol.com
(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.

3. _ Two Story House
Tammy wynette & george jones
(t. wynette, g. tubb, d. lindsey)
16 biggest hit - tammy wynette and george jones
Transcriber: awcantor@aol.com (anita w. cantor)
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
Two story house

(man speaks):
Dearly beloved, we are gathered together,
In the presence of god, and these witnesses,
To join this man and this woman in the bonds,
Of holy matrimony
Do you tammy, take this man, george
To be your lawfully wedded husband,
To love and to cherish until death do you part?
(t.w.) sings:
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
(man speaks)
And do you, george, take this woman, tammy
To be your lawfully wedded wife,
To love and to cherish, until death do you part?
(g.j.)
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
My love won't grow cold
I promise, till death do us part
(both sing)
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 worst
You'll always come first
And no one can keep us apart
Yes, we take each other
Forsaking all others
Together, till death do us part
(man speaks)
I now pronounce you, man and wife.

6. _ Golden Ring
Tammy wynette and george jones
(bobby braddock , rafe vanhoy)
16 biggest hits - tammy wynette and george jones
Transcriber- awcantor@aol.com
(t.w.)
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.

7. _ Take Me
Tammy wynette and george jones
(l. payne, g. jones)
16 biggest hits - tammy wynette and george jones album
Transcriber: awcantor@aol.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

Transcriber: awcantor@aol.com
Gj sings:
It was so good when he loved you
I could tell by the sunshine on your face
I know he bought you pretty things
I know he made your world a happy place
T.w. sings:
And i remember when she loved you
And in those days you had someone to care
And through your long and lonely nights
When you needed someone, she was there
Gj sings:
Ah, but lately you're not smiling
And i don't see that sunshine like before
I know you've tried to make it work
But i don't think he loves you any more
Tw sings:
And i know she must have hurt you
'cause i've seen the tears, you try so hard to hide
But if we had each other
It might just stop this hurt we have inside
Both:
Change to me and keep the change
Gj:
And i won't do you like he did
Tw:
And i won't hurt you, like she did
Both:
Change to me and keep the change
And we'll never need another
Once we have each other
Both:
Change to me and keep the change

16 biggest hits tammy wynette and george jones album
Transcriber: awcantor@aol.com
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

10. _ A Pair Of Old Sneakers
Tammy wynette and george jones
(composed by g. sutton, l. kingston)
16 biggest hits tammy wynette and geoge jones
Transcriber: awcantor@aol.com
We're just a pair of old sneakers
Stringin' each other along
Sometimes i feel just like a heel
'cause i know in my soul, that it's wrong
We're just a pair of old sneakers
Kickin' each other around
Eight times a week, we play 'hide an' cheat'
'til we've run that game in the ground
We're just a pair of old sneakers
We know that cheatin' is wrong
We're just a pair of old sneakers
And we've been in the closet too long
We're just a pair of old sneakers
Worn out an' comin' unglued
Both wearin' rings, feelin' ashamed
Tryin' to run from the truth
We're just a pair of old sneakers
And nothin' can tear us apart
Living the lie and lord knows we've tried
To stop walking on each other's heart
We're just a pair of old sneakers
We know that cheatin' is wrong
We're just a pair of old sneakers
And we've been in the closet too long
We're just a pair of old sneakers
And we've been in the closet too long

We're gonna hooooold on

Life can be rough
Sometimes it's kind
A real good life

But the best love
Is the one we've known
And the faith we have between us
Makes it grow

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

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

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

Transcriber: awcantor@aol.com
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

But the other night on a country road
While i was a-drivin' through

To sister, mary lou
God's gonna get 'cha for that, yeah

There's no place to run an' hide
For he knows where you're at
God's gonna get 'cha for that, yeah

Now oh sister bessie, she like to testify
She says, 'i'll always love the lord, someday i'm a-gonna fly
But the other night while goin' by the local liquor store
I caught oh sister bessie, flyin' out the door
God's gonna get 'cha for that
God's gonna get 'cha for that

I can't thank you enough
For the happiness we've shared
I've never known a day that sunshine wasn't there
I can't begin to tell you the joy you bring to me
And as long as we're together
What more could there ever be?
'cause there's power, power, power in our love
It's so strong that it controls us everyday
Yes, there's power, power, power in our love
And together we love living life this way
There is no challenge in this world
That we can't meet, today
For i've got you beside me, hand in hand all the way
And when i go to sleep tonight so satisfied, within
I know that when the morning comes, i'll be in love again
'cause there's power, power, power in our love
It's so strong that it controls us everyday
Yes, there's power, power, power in our love
And together we love living life this way

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 tschaikowsky
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 tschaikowsky
Is haggard n'...(fades out)
