Country Favorites Willie Nelson Style lyrics

Way down in Columbus Georgia wanna be back in Tennessee

Way down in Columbus Stockade friends have turned their backs on me
Go on and leave me if you wish to never let me cross your mind

In your heart you love another leave me little darlin' I don't mind

Way down in Columbus Georgia...

[ fiddle - guitar ]

Way down in Columbus Georgia...

The seasons come the seasons go we get a little sunshine rain and snow

Just the way that it was planned to be
But there are no seasons in my heart while you play the leading part

And my love for you will bloom eternaly

Your leaving will bring autumn sorrow and my tears like withered leaves will fall

But spring could bring some glad tomorrow and darling we could be happy after all

My window faces the south I'm almost halfway to heaven
Snow is falling but still I can't see fields of cotton calling to me

My window faces the south and though I am far from the Swanee

I'm never frownin' or down in the mouth my window faces the south

[ fiddle - ac.guitar ]

My window faces the south...

My window faces the south

Far across deep blue water lives an old German's daughter

By the banks of the old River Rhine
Where I loved her and left her now I can't forget her I miss my pretty Fraulein

Fraulein Fraulein walk down by the river pretend that your hand's holding mine

By the same stars above you I swear that I love you you are my pretty Fraulein

[ steel - fiddle ]

Deep within my heart lies a melody a song of old San Antone

Where in dreams I lived with a memory beneath the stars all alone

Cause it was there I found beside the Alamo
Enchantment strange as the blue up above

And that moonlit pass beside the Alamo and rose my Rose of San Antone

Moon and all your splendor knows only my heart

Call back my Rose Rose of San Antone

I love you because you understand dear every single thing I try to do

And you're always there to lend a halping hand dear

But most of all I love you cause you're you
No matter what the world may say about me

I know your love will always see me through

I love you for the way you never doubt me but most of all I love you cause you're you

[ fiddle ]

Heartache number one was when you left me I never knew that I could hurt this way

And heartache number two was when you came back again

You came back and never meant to stay
Now I've got heartaches by the number troubles by the score

Every day you love me less each day I love you more

Yes I've got heartaches by the number a love that I can't win

I'm making believe that you still love me and it's leaving me alone and so blue
I'll always dream but I'll never own you I'll keep loving you and making believe

I can't hold you close darling when you're not with me

You're somebody's love now and you'll never be mine

I'll always dream but I'll never own you I'll keep loving you and making believe

[ steel ]

I'm making believe...
