Gary Fjellgaard Song Lyrics > Contenders Two: Still in the Running
Them Old Songs
Doggone my soul / How I love them old songs
They were a comfort to me / When I was alone
The dancing stops but the / Music goes on
Doggone my soul / How I love them old songs
Ah when I hear that / Double eagle guitar
Makes me think / How trouble free girl we are
There was a time / I spent my nights in a bar
Playin that old juke box / Until the honky tonk got locked up
Doggone my mind / It just won’t leave me alone
Keeps on reminding me / I’m so far from home
Those heartbeakin / achin / Eggs and bacon country songs
Well they take me back to / Hardwood floors / Outdoor johns and mason jars
It’s all I can do / To believe that it’s gone
That hard knockin / Rock and rollin / Life that I’ve known
The dancing stops but the music must go on
Doggone my soul / How I love then old songs
