Me and Paul lyrics

I've spent the lifetime making up my mind to be
More than the measure of what I thought others could see
Good luck and fast bucks they're too few and too far between
There's catalog buyers and old five and dimers like me
She stood beside me letting me know she would be
Something to lean on if everything ran out on me
Well fenced yards ain't hole cards and like is not ever will be

She said if I ever deceived her she'd be gone before I could count ten

Well I guess that I didn't believe her cause look at the trouble I'm in

She's gone gone gone gone gone gone crying won't bring her back
The more that I cry the faster the train flies further on down the track

I lost every right to be happy when I lost the heaven I'd found

Forgiving you was easy,forgeting seems to take the longest time.I just keep thinking and your memory is forever on my mind.you know I'll aways love you and I can't forget the day when you were mine.

Forgiving you was easy but forgetting seems to take the longest time.

Me and Paul by Willie Nelson

It's been rough and rocky travelin',

But I'm finally standin' upright on the ground.
After takin' several readings,

I'm surprised to find my mind`s still fairly sound.

I guess Nashville was the roughest,

But I know I said the same about them all.

We received our education

In the cities of the nation, me and Paul.

Almost busted in Laredo,

I'm a game that you used to play
I'm a plan that you didn't lay so well
I'm a fire that burns in your mind
Close your eyes I'm a memory
I'm a love that you know from a song
I'm a voice on a green telephone
And I'm a day that lasted so long
Close your eyes I'm a memory

I'm a dream that comes with the night
And I'm a face that fades with the light
And I'm a tear that falls out of sight

Pretend I never happened
Erase me from your mind
You will not want to remember
Any love as cold as mine

I'll be leaving in the morning
For a place that I hope I find
All the places must be better
Than the ones I leave behind

But I don't suppose you'll be unhappy
You'll find ways to spend your time
And if you ever think about me
And if I ever cross your mind

Today, I stood across the street an' watched you leave with him,

Right before my disbelieving eyes.

And when you saw me standing there, you turned away from me.
And you wouldn't even cross the street to say goodbye.

Once you said you'd do most anything to keep our love.

You'd tear out your tongue before you'd tell me lies.

Once you said you'd go to any lengths to be with me.

On a rainy Wednesday morning that's the way that I was born in
That old sharecropper's one room country shack
They said my mommie left me the day before she had me
Said she hit the road and never once looked back
And I just like to mention my grandma's old age pension
Is the reason why I'm standing here today
I got all my country learning a milking and a churning

I live one day at a time I dream one dream at a time

Yeasterday's dead and tomorrow is blind and I live one day at a time

Guess that's your surprise to see me back at home

But you know how much I miss you when I'm gone

Don't ask how long I planned to stay it never crossed my mind I live one day at a time

Way down in Louisiana amongst the tall grown sugar canes
Lived a simple man and a domineerin' hen and a rose of a different name
The first time I fell lightly I was standing in the drizzlin' rain
With a trembling hand and a bottle of gin and a rose of a different name
The devil made me do it the first time the second time I done it on my own
