You Pass Me By lyrics

Words & Music by Hank Snow & Eddie Nesbitt

You Pass Me By, and you don't even stop to say "hello".
Don't know why I've learned to love you so.

Each night it seems I hear you say your love will never die,

I wake from dreams, You Pass Me By.

When you are lonely, some day you'll learn

Just what it means to live in dreams of love that's unreturned.

Would You Mind lyrics

Words & Music by Cy Coben

Recorded by Hank Snow

Would you mind if I tell you that I go for you?
Would you mind if my heart is beating so for you?

Yes, if you should find I’m the lovin’ kind,

Would you mind, would you mind, would you mind?

Would you care if I kinda sorta held your hand?

Would you care if I kissed you like a regular man?

With This Ring I Thee Wed lyrics

(Spoken) With this ring I thee wed

An angel here beside me

Just a moment more and heaven will be mine

With this ring I thee wed

As every dream inside me

Comes true each time I hear the church bells chime

This little band of gold I hold

Will soon be on your finger

A kiss, a vow, a moment so divine

With this ring I thee wed

And now you're mine forever

There's The Chair lyrics

Written by Marvis Harris

Recorded by Hank Snow

Here's the house where we once lived that I had love too much to give
For the girl who said that she'll be mine

And here's the room where we both slept and when she laughed that's where I wept

We had love so very hard to find

There's the chair that held the man that held the girl that held the hand

Stolen Moments lyrics

Written by Joe Sherman - Sid Wayne

Recorded by Hank Snow

Stolen moments are all we have together

Two hearts that must find love on borrowed time

Stolen moments the seconds that we treasure must this forbid and pleasure be a crime

If only we had met when both of us were free

We could walking to the sunlight where a love like ours should be

Spanish Fireball lyrics

Recorded by Hank Snow

I met a girl in Laredo down in Mexico

While I was makin' the rounds

Down in a dim cafe she does the swing and sway
That's the talk of the town

I never learned her name

But she's called the Spanish Fireball

While she kept rhythm with her hips

From her ruby lips bame a love song so bright

And as she rhumbaed by the fire in her eyes

Roll Along Kentucky Moon lyrics

Written by Bill Halley

Recorded by Hank Snow

Where are you old moon of Kentucky there's somebody lonesome and blue

We're nothing it seems but mem'ries and dreams waiting to whisper to you

Day is done and here am I alone and you know why

Roll along roll along Kentucky moon

Shed a ray of silver light on one I love tonight

Roll along roll along Kentucky moon

One More Ride lyrics

One more ride

I will long for a trip, don't need no grip

I'm takin' one more ride

'Way out there in the prairie air

I guess it's in my hide

For the clickety-clack of the railroad track is callin'

If a man that knows where the Santa Fe goes

When she gets under steam

And a big loud bell bids a fond farewell

To hear her whistle scream

North To Chicago lyrics

Written by Les Pouliot

Recorded by Hank Snow

I filled my ol' car up with gas north to Chicago I was goin'

Just drove ten miles and turned around I couldn't leave without you knowin'

I had to see you one last time and be with you once before I'll go

To talk with you just one more time and then I'm bound north to Chicago

Married By The Bible, Divorced By The Law lyrics

Words and Music by Johnny Rector

Recorded by Hank Snow

What a strange world we live in, what a shame, Oh what a shame!
Someone’s always quarrellin’ the marriage don’t remain.

Divorces by the thousands; is the human race insane?

I always thought that marriage should be a sacred thing.

CHORUS

Married By The Bible Divorced By The Law;

Marriage Vow lyrics

Written by Jenny Lou Carson

Recorded by Hank Snow

Do you take this woman to be your dear wife
Do you vow to love her the rest of your life

And will you protect her and honor her name

Oh don't cause her heartaches and don't bring her shame

Share with her in poverty with her in wealth

For richer for poorer through sickness and health

All these things the Parson did ask me

It's Over Over Nothin' lyrics

Written by Betty Jean Robinson and Tony Seen

Recorded by Hank Snow

The sweetest thing that ever came into my life was you

The only girl in this whole world that turned my grey skies blue

Your tender love like a velvet glove enclosed around my heart

Told me we'd still be lovers when this old world fell apart

But now it's over over nothin' my heart just felt the final curtain fall

I've Forgotten You lyrics

Recorded by Hank Snow

I've forgotten you, I know that's true;
Except when it's raining, or when there's sun.

I've forgotten you, you never make me blue;

Except when I'm all alone, or with someone.

I've forgotten you, I know that's true;

Except when it's night time, or when it's day.

I don't remember you, you never make me blue;

Except when I'm lonely, or when I'm gay.

I'm Not At All Sorry For You lyrics

Written by Chuck Glaser

Recorded by Hank Snow

Don't come to me with tears in your eyes just because he couldn't be true

And expecting me to sympathize I'm not at all sorry for you

You know I realize all that you been through

Because you treated me just the way he's treating you

It's too late now to stop worryin' you I'm not at all sorry for you

I Cried But My Tears Were Too Late lyrics

Words and Music by Hank Snow

One heart too many I have broken ,

Love dreams that faded away.
Too many teardrops have fallen,

Too many vows cast aside.

Soft wedding bells should be ringing,

For us in the chapel tonight,

But this morning they tolled,

And her bright band of gold

Was returned with this message tonight:

CHORUS

Your sweetheart has left today,

Honeymoon On A Rocket Ship lyrics

I know somewhere out in the world

There is a gal for me

I'd like to find and make you mine

How happy we would be

We wouldn't need a moonlit night

To sit outdoors and spoon

'Cause I would buy a rocket ship

And take you to the moon

We would have our honeymoon

On the rocket ship

We would fly from star to star

On our wedding trip

You could make your wedding gown

Gal Who Invented Kissin' lyrics

I love a gal who invented kissin' I don't recall her name

But I do believe that gal should sit high up in the hall of fame

Until she came along just think what we were missin'

That's why today I'm shouting hooray for the gal who invented kissin'

She thought the fellows how to smooth instead of holdin' hands

And she showed them how to steel a kiss like they do in foreign lands

Crack In The Boxcar Door lyrics

Written by Russell Steagall

Recorded by Hank Snow

A long black engine keeps a rollin' along its wheels goin' clickety-clack
She's carryin' me to war that eastern seaboard Louisiana I ain't comin' back

And I sit all alone in an empty box listen to the engine roar

And I see the world that she oughta be seen through a crack in the boxcar door

City Of New Orleans lyrics

Written by Steve Goodman

Recorded by Hank Snow

Ridin' on the City of New Orleans Illinois Central Monday morning rail
15 cars and 15 restless riders 3 conductors and 24 sacks of mail

All along the southbound odyssey the train rolls out of Kankakee

And moves along past houses farms and fields

Passin' trains that have no name and switchyards full of old black men

Blossoms In The Springtime lyrics

Recorded by Hank Snow

When I see blossoms in the springtime
I know that sweetheart time is here

My love that blossoms in the springtime

Blooms in my heart through all the year

I love the blossoms in the springtime

Kissed by the sunshine and the rain

I love to hold you, oh my darlin'

When kisses bloom in sweetheart's lane

Sometimes a spark of love may smoulder

Beggar To A King lyrics

I Had Sunk As Low As A Man Could Go

The World Had Turned Me Dow --- own

Then You Picked Me Up And Kissed Me Sweet

You Changed A Beggar In-to A King

Yes You Took The Rags From Off Of My Back

And You Gave Me Your Love To Keep Me Warm

Yes You Picked Me Up And You Kissed Me Sweet

You Changed A Beggar In-to A King

I Had Walked The Streets With Head Bowed Low

Any Old Time lyrics

Any old time, you want to come back home

Drop me a line, and say no more you'll roam

You had your chance to play the game fair

When you left me, sweetheart

You only left a load of care

Now that you're down

I'm going to stick by you

If you will only say

Your roamin' days are thru

Well, now, you'll find me here

Like the day you left me alone

Any old time
