Oh I never heard the band a playin' I never saw the people swayin'
I didn't see the stars up there in the sky so blue
My head was really spinnin' my heart I knew you were a winnin'
I couldn't help myself I fell in love with you
My dreams came true when you walked into sight
I asked you to dance and we danced and danced all night
I could see it in your eyes you were as lonely as me
And from the chains of loneliness you set us free
Oh I never heard the band a playin' I never saw the people swayin'...
[ guitar ]
My life's complete now that I have your love
You're my every dream you're all I'm dreaming of
And I know that our love will always be
And we'll have happiness you and me
Oh I never heard the band a playin' I never saw the people swayin'...
I couldn't help myself I fell in love with you

Party girl they call her party girl with a heart that can't be true
Party girl they call her Party girl but if she is the blame belongs on you
You're the one who made her promises and she believed just like a child
So now if she seems rowdy you're the reason she's so wild
Party girl they call her party girl but if she is the blame belongs on you
[ steel ]
Cause you gave her love and built her up then broke her heart just like string
Now she won't trust anyone she's just out to have a fling
Party girl they call her party girl but if she is the blame belongs on you
If she is the blame belongs on you

I'm gonna write mama for money and tell her I'm coming home
I don't like big city livin' I've been here much too long
I can't find a job I've been looking walking the streets up and down
I'm gonna write mama for money cause I wanna leave this town
Well I know now that mama's right city's no place for me
I sure wish that I's back home cause that's where I wanna be
City's all right for some folks but that's not where I belong
So I'm gonna write mama for money cause mama I wanna come home
I can't find a job I've been looking walking the streets up and down...
Well I tried my luck at thumbin' a ride but that didn't work at all
Then I tried to hop aboard the freight train but the railroad boss just kicked me off
Winter's here and I'm cold and hungry but I won't steal or do wrong
I'm gonna write mama for money cause mama I wanna come home
I'm gonna write mama for money walking the streets up and down...

George he's got lots of money
He's got everything going his way
He drives down the street in a big limousine
Oh how I wish I could just be George for a day
I'd walk around feeling seven feet tall
For twenty four hours I'd have it made
Yes I would really be in high society
If I could just be George for a day
[ steel ]
George he lives in a mansion
He don't have to work for his pay
All the girls wanna marry him
Oh how I wish I could just be George for a day
I'd walk around feeling seven feet tall...

I've thought I cry my heart out when you told me goodbye
I never dreamed I had so many tears stored up inside
But I think my crying's over I just cry now and then
And I'm acting like my old self again
Yes I'm acting like my old self again
I can even smile now and then
Those lonely nights are coming to an end
Yes I'm acting like my old self again
[ steel ]
For a while I didn't even know myself
I've thought the world had ended the day that you left
But the world keeps on turning looks like I'm gonna win
Cause I'm acting like my old self again
Yes I'm acting like my old self again...

I dream of Jeannie with the light brown Cadillac
She's got more dollars than carter's got pills
I dream of Jeannie with the light brown Cadillac
and oh oh all her dollar bills
Well Jeannie wadn't too much to look at she could never win a beauty contest
But when it comes to money or beauty I think I like money the best
Jeannie used to take me out drivin' up and down the street
And everytime you'd see us we'd be different
She had that Caddy for each day of the week
That's why I dream of Jeannie with the light brown Cadillac...
[ guitar ]
Then Jeannie went to New York City and she never came back to our town
I heard she married some city slicker and now Jeannie's settled down
But I still dream of Jeannie with the light brown Cadillac...
And oh oh all her dollar bills

You are gone and I am crying don't know what I'm gonna do
Feel just like my world is dying cause sweetheart I've just lost you
My tears are a fallin' and your name I'm callin' the whole night through
My heart is achin' and I think it's breakin' right in two
I just can't see why you'd leave me for someone new
I never believe that you would deceive and hurt me like you do
My tears are a fallin' and your name I'm callin' the whole night through...
[ steel ]
My tears are a fallin' and your name I'm callin' the whole night through...
Cause sweetheart I've just lost you

Well ashes to ashes and dust to dust I hate to think about dyin' but someday I must
So I'm tryin' to live a lot while I can but I'm tellin' you I'm a disappointed man
There ain't nothin' happinin' to me there ain't nothin' happinin' to me
The sun goes down I'm just another day older there ain't nothin' happinin' to me
Man next door he drives a big Cadillac
Got a fine lookin' woman to keep this three room shack
But he ain't nothin' special he ain't nothin' hot
But I would like to have just a half of what he's got
There ain't nothin' happinin' to me...
[ piano ]
Well once I was a man with a whole lotta dreams
But I've never amounted to a hill of beans
A man needs a woman that'll make him feel good
But woman of mine she wouldn't do it if she could
There ain't nothin' happinin' to me there ain't nothin' happinin' to me
Well everybody else got somethin' goin' on there ain't nothin' happinin' to me
There ain't nothin' happinin' to me I want somethin' happen to me
I wish that somethin' would happen to me

Well I had me a job and everything was goin' pretty good you see
I had me some money and a pretty little honey to love me
Then Ukulele Bailey he came on to the scene
And with a smooth singin' and a sweet pickin' he stole my baby from me
Well he would sit every night in front of her window and sang to her bout romance
And I lost my baby to Ukulele Bailey I didn't have a fight to chance
I saw a ad in a magazine I'm gonna get into the act
They say you can play the uke in just five days or you get your money back
[ ukulele ]
Well my correspondence course finally came in the mail and I practiced every day
But I guess I must've been pretty bad cause the neighbors started movin' away
Well I planked and I thumped and I planked and I thumped
Until my plankin' thumper got sore
But I gotta learn to play that old ukulele or I won't see baby no more
Well I practiced my singin' everyday
But everybody said that I ought to throw the towel in
Cause every time I start to singing all the dogs would start to howlin'
But Ukulele Bailey he's got my baby so I won't give up give in
I'm gonna learn to play that old ukulele and win baby back again
[ guitar ]
And win baby back again

Turn the music up loud let me sit with the crowd
And just let the blues hang around
I've played it hard but didn't win so let the music begin
It's over I'm leavin' it's my last night in town
It's my last night in town I'm leavin' this all behind me
But no matter where I go I know her memories will find me
I was sure she loved me but she turned me down
So let the sad music start it's my last night in town
[ piano ]
It's my last night in town I'm leavin' this all behind me...
Let the sad music start it's my last night in town

What's a home keep on got that rules you from me
Is a some kind of magic that I just can't see
At first you used to hurt me when you'd leave me behind
But at last I've finally found the way to help me pass the time
And I just cry a little then I die a little and I walk back and fort to cross the floor
Yes I just cry a little then I die a little and each time it hurts a little bit more
[ steel ]
I pretend that it's all right each time that you leave
And I don't show the hurt that hurts inside of me
For I know there's no use to ask you to stay in
You'll soon be gone and my usual night will began

There's a swingin' honky tonk just down the road from me
And there's a swingin' waitress there just as cute as she can be
She's such a pretty sights and her mini skirt just fits as right
They call her mini skirt Minnie from Memphis Tennessee
Ah mini skirt Minnie from Memphis Tennessee
Puts all the other girls to shame when it comes to looks you see
Well I knew from the start she'd won my heart and that's alright with me
Cause I'm in love with a mini skirt Minnie from Memphis Tennessee
[ guitar ]
Well a guy in town is a chasin' sweet Minnie you see
But he don't have a chance cause Minnie's in love with me
Well I'm a gonna make her my wife then I'll spend the rest of my life
With mini skirt Minnie from Memphis Tennessee
Well a mini skirt Minnie sure knocked me for a loop

Well I knew from the start she'd won my heart and that's alright with me
Cause I'm in love with a mini skirt Minnie from Memphis Tennessee
