Dean Martin Album

Old bones inside an old raincoat
Old bones inside of old shoes
Old friends at the hotel
Come by to wish me well
And keep me up to date on all the old news

Sometimes I have an old whiskey
And I fall asleep in my chair
And I dream that I'm a man
Much younger than I am
I bet you'd think by now that I wouldn't care

But I love life, I'd like to do it again
Though I might not be much more than I've ever been
Just to have the chance to turn back the hands
And let my life begin
Oh yeah, I'd like to do it again

It's time for takin' it easy
It's time for takin' it slow
Old bones don't move so fast
As they did once in the past
Now if I have to run, I simply don't go

But I love life, I'd like to live it again
Though I might not be much more than I've ever been
Just to have the chance to turn back the hands
And let my life begin
Oh yeah, I'd like to do it again

Oh yeah, I'd like to do it again

Everybody's had the blues sometimes and
Everybody knows the tune.
And everybody knows the way I'm feelin' cause
Everybody's had the blues.

A lonely, song someone is gone,
A story old as time.
Love, hate, or want and wait till misery fills your mind.
But everybody knows the way I'm fellin' cause
Everybody's had the blues

I think of all the things I promised you
There's still so many things I didn't do
I know it hasn't been the way that you expected it to be
But I need you girl don't give up on me

It never crossed my mind what you go through
For giving me each time for hurting you
I guess a foolish man just takes for granted that's how it should be
But I need you girl don't give up on me

You make up for all the bad in me with all the good in you
All the wrong I've ever had in me can't match the good in you
So maybe given time I'll come around to what I oughta be
But I need you girl don't give up on me

So maybe given time I'll come around to what I oughta be
But I need you girl don't give up on me

I always left some room to back away
Whenever love would get too close to me
I've always kept my feet on solid ground
And my head out of a cloud, no broken heart for me

But there you were, and there I was off-guard
Not able to protect me from your charm
And I felt myself falling further
Closer you got
And I fell in love up to my heart

I fell in love up to my heart
I couldn't stop myself, I went too far
I was standing on the edge and then
Next thing I knew I had
Fallen love up to my heart

I can feel myself fallin' more and more
And there's no use in fighting anymore
'Cause you went to my head and
All my defenses fell apart
And here I am, in love up to my heart

I fell in love up to my heart
I couldn't stop myself, I went too far
I was standing on the edge and then
Next thing I knew I had
Fallen love up to my heart

I was standing on the edge and then
Next thing I knew I had
Fallen love up to my heart

Shoulder to shoulder arm in arm
Walkin' on could number nine
So much in love the way we used to be
Once upon a time once upon a time

I'll put that smile back on your face
The one this fool once took away
Each day I'll tell you how much I care
And say the things that I forgot to say

Well we'll be shoulder to shoulder...

I'll bring you love and happiness
And treat your heart so tenderly
Though friends may tell you fools never learn
I hope you'll take another chance on me

So we'll be shoulder to shoulder...

(Shoulder to shoulder arm in arm)
Walkin' on could number nine
So much in love the way we used to be
Once upon a time once upon a time
(Shoulder to shoulder arm in arm)

Since I met you baby my whole life has changed
Since I met you baby my whole life has changed
And everybody tells me I'm not the same

I don't need nobody to tell my troubles to
I don't need nobody to tell my troubles to
'Cause since I met you baby all I need is you

Since I met you baby I'm a happy man
Since I met you baby I'm a happy man
I'm gonna try to please you in every way I can

I think that I just wrote my first country song
I've had this lonesome hurtin' feeling all night long
I didn't know I love her and now she's gone
I think that I just wrote my first country song

I always like to hear those country singers sing
And the way they play those guitars boy they sure do make 'em ring
But when they sing the words I can never sing along
I didn't believe things happen that way
I thought our love was here to stay
Till yesterday she walked away and now they're hittin' home

I think that I just wrote my first country song...

You wrote some words about the good times that you had
And then some lines about losing you mind or missing her so bad
And you did leave out a thing about the way you done her wrong
I sang my song to the saddest note that anybody ever wrote
I think that you just wrote your first country song

I think that I just wrote my first country song...

I'm drinking champagne and feeling no pain till early morning
Dining and dancing with every pretty girl I can find
And I'm having a fling with a pretty young thing till early morning
Knowing tomorrow I'll wake up with you on my mind

Guilty conscience I guess though I must confess
I never loved you much when you were mine

So I'll keep drinking champagne feeling no pain till early morning
Dining and dancing with every pretty girl I can find
I'll keep having a fling with a pretty young thing till early morning
Knowing tomorrow I'll wake up with you on my mind

I'll keep drinking champagne feeling no pain till early morning
Knowing tomorrow I'll wake up with you on my mind
(I'll keep drinking champagne feeling no pain till early morning)
Knowing tomorrow I'll wake up with you on my mind

I'm hangin' around hopin' you'll get lonely
I'm hangin' around though you say we're through
You're tellin' me now that you'll never miss me
But I'm hangin' around just in case you do

I wanna be beside you every step you take
Every time you turn around I'll be in your way
All over you like poison ivy
You get the itch that's when you'll find me here to stay

Hangin' around hopin' you'll get lonely...

I'll be the melody that haunts your mind
Stuck in your mem'ry like a nursery rhyme
You'll take a fall like Humpty Dumpty
If it takes a month of Sundays I've got time

Hangin' around hopin' you'll get lonely...
I'm hangin' around just in case you do

Yes your love put a song put a song put a song in my heart
Never have I heard this beautiful music before
Yes your love put a song put a song put a song in my heart
A beautiful song of two people in love evermore

It wasn't too long ago I thought I would never know
What reason has anyone to sing a happy song
I knew only loneliness but then I found happiness
And now I just want the world to smile and sing along

Cause your love put a song put a song...
Yes your love put a song put a song...
