Haunted Heart

Sammy Kershaw Haunted Heart Lyrics
1.Cry, Cry Darlin'

(jimmy newman/j.d. miller)

Cry, cry darlin?
That what i do
If you leave me with the blues

Cry, cry darlin?
That all i do
If it you i should lose
For me there be no sunshine
If we should ever part

Cry, cry darlin?
That what i do
'cause you e the one in my heart

Cry, cry darlin?
My eyes would cry
Never dry if you should go

Cry, cry darlin?
When shadows breathe
I just weep all night i know
Girl you know how much i would miss you
If we should ever part

Cry, cry darlin?
That all i do
'cause you e the one in my heart
Cry, cry darlin?
That all i do
'cause you e the one in my heart


2.You've Got A Lock On My Love

(buddy cannon/larry bastian)

When i go walkin?down the street
The girls that used to catch my eye don interest me
I got my mind on you instead
Marilyn munroe could not turn my head
Don you see i e got a one track mind
You e got me wearin?blinders

You e got a lock on my love baby
Ain goin?no where can you see
You e got a lock on my love baby
Throw away the key

I never thought i see the day
I be happy 'bout a woman takin?my feedom away
Never thought i walk the line
But baby let me say the pleasure is all mine
Let the other guys make the rounds
Lookin?for what i found

You e got a lock on my love baby
Ain goin?no where can you see
You e got a lock on my love baby
Throw away the key

Makin?love to me just used to be a game to play
But when i met you i threw my little black book away
You e got a lock on my love baby
Ain goin?no where can you see
You e got a lock on my love baby
Throw away the key
You e got a lock on my love baby
Ain goin?no where can you see
You e got a lock on my love baby
Throw away the key
Throw away the key
Throw away the key
Throw away the key
Throw away the key


3.What Might Have Been

(dean dillon/donny kees)

You were the only woman for the longest time
And i l admit that even now you still cross my mind
'cause we had what others only dream about
But that was then, and this is now

We used to be red hot lovers
Swore we always be each other
You and me, used to be, what might have been

There was a time i couldn take my eyes off you
And i could tell by your touch you didn want me to
And if i had you over again, we wouldn be apart
'cause i still go on loving you in my heart

We used to red hot lovers
Swore we always be each other
You and me, used to be, what might have been

I wonder to this day
Why i let you slip away
We used to be red hot lovers
Swore we always be each other
You and me, used to be, what might have been
Oh, you and me, used to be, what should have been


4.Neon Leon

(buddy cannon/larry bastian)

Here he comes, neon leon
Lookin?so fine, with his gold chains on
Got a customized caddy with the top snapped down
He known everywhere in town as neon leon

He too cool, neon leon
Out there twistin? designer shades on
He can bop he can move you right in the groove
And he got all the moves, he neon leon

All the dancin?stops when he begins
The guys just watch while the girls go after him
Neon leon, neon leon

Cruisin?main, neon leon
Goin?so slow, his white scarf on
Got his hair slicked, a duck tail style
Cars backed up for miles for neon leon
Parked outside the drive-in eatin?fries
The coolest man in the world for a town this size
Neon leon, neon leon

Man look at them fender skirts
You ever seen so much chrome in your life
Look at the way he rolls them cigarettes up in his sleeves
Ain that cool? that cool
I hear he gonna move on down to louisiana and buy him a bar
And call it you all leons
I gonna go there


5.Haunted Heart

(buddy brock/kim williams)

Go down the road called yesterday
Take a left on a lost highway
And make a right on memory lane
Drive until you feel the pain

And at the river of tears take one last turn
And cross the bridge that just won't burn
A run down house is love's graveyard
That's where you'll find my haunted heart

Well my haunted heart can't rest in peace
It's buried with her memory
And it's a living hell here after dark
All alone with a haunted heart

Late at night a slamming door
Shadows move across the floor
Footsteps fall on silent stairs
I hear her call but no one's there

Her photograph hangs by the bed
A grim reminder love is dead
A love i killed just won't depart
It's living in my haunted heart

Well my haunted heart can't rest in peace
It's buried with her memory
And it's a living hell here after dark
All alone with a haunted heart
I said i'm all alone with a haunted heart


6.I Can't Reach Her Anymore

(mark petersen/bruce theien)

She still answers whenever i call
We talk about work and the weather and all
If i mention the past or maybe coming back home
It ain't long till i hear that old cold dial tone

I still got her number but i can't reach her anymore
I can't reach out and touch her heart the way i did before
She don't have much to talk about
Since my feet did the walking out
If she could only see them walk the floor
I still got her number but i can't reach her anymore

She says her job is hectic but it's beautiful outside
She might call in sick tomorrow and just take a drive
I said i'd really love to see you can i meet you somewhere
And then the conversation fades and long distance fills the air

I still got her number but i can't reach her anymore
I can't reach out and touch her heart the way i did before
She don't have much to talk about
Since my feet did the walking out
If she could only see them walk the floor
I still got her number but i can't reach her
I still got her number but i can't reach her anymore
I can't reach out and touch her heart the way i did before
She don't have much to talk about
Since my feet did the walking out
If she could only see them walk the floor
I still got her number but i can't reach her anymore


7.She Don't Know She's Beautiful

(bob mcdill/paul harrison)

We go out to a party somewhere
The moment we walk in the door
People stop and everybody stares
She don't know what they're staring for

She don't know she's beautiful (never crossed her mind)
She don't know she's beautiful (no she's not that kind)
She don't know she's beautiful
Though time and time i've told her so

There she goes just walking down the street
And someone lets a whistle out
A girl like her she just can't see
What the fuss is all about

And she don't know she's beautiful (never crossed her mind)
She don't know she's beautiful (no she's not that kind)
She don't know she's beautiful
Though time and time i've told her so

Morning comes and her hair's all a mess
That's when she thinks she looks her worst
It's times like this she don't know why
I can't take my eyes off her

'cause she don't know she's beautiful (never crossed her mind)
She don't know she's beautiful (no she's not that kind)
She don't know she's beautiful
Though time and time i've told her
She don't know she's beautiful (never crossed her mind)
She don't know she's beautiful (no she's not that kind)
She don't know she's beautiful
Though time and time i've told her
She don't know she's beautiful (never crossed her mind)
She don't know she's beautiful (no she's not that kind)
She don't know she's beautiful
Though time and time i've told her so


8.Still Lovin' You

(rock killough)

I thought you might want to stay
If i put my guitar away
Quit the band and came home to stay
But that wouldn do
And this old guitar of mine
Used to ease my troubled mind
But now every day i find
That it lonesome too

Here i go again
Blowin?my show again
Unable to glow again
Still lovin?you
Losin?my hope again
At the end of my rope again
Unable to cope again
Still lovin?you

I must of been million miles
I must have faked a million smiles
I just can't get reconciled
To be without you
And i like to start again
And replay my part again
Not break your heart again
I can stand these blues

Here i go again
Blowin?my show again
Unable to glow again
Still lovin?you
Losin?my hope again
At the end of my rope again
Unable to cope again
Still lovin?you
I unable to cope again
Still lovin?you


9.Queen Of My Double Wide Trailer

(dennis linde)

Well i met her out at murphy's restaurant
She said she was fresh from the farm
And i remember thinkin' for a country girl
That she went pretty well armed
We sat there talkin' by the lobster tank
I ordered her a slow gin fizz
And when them chicken fried steaks arrived
She said i like living like this

So i made her the queen of my double wide trailer
With the polyester curtains and the redwood deck
Times she's run off and i've got to trail her
Dang her black heart and her pretty red neck

Well a few nights later i run into her
With some stranger on a park bench
She said he rebuilds engines and his name is earl
He's the charlie daniels of the torque wrench
I whispered honey let's just go on home
And have some onion rings and watch tv
And as i walked her to the truck
Earl was cryin' don't you leave me
I told him

This is the queen of my double wide trailer
With the polyester curtains and the redwood deck
Sometimes shes runs and i've got to trail her
Dang her black heart and her pretty red neck

I said this is the queen of my double wide trailer
With the polyester curtains and the redwood deck
Sometimes she runs and i've got to trail her
Dang her black heart and her pretty red neck

I said this is the queen of my double wide trailer
With the polyester curtains and the redwood deck
Sometimes she runs and i've got to trail her
Dang her black heart and her pretty red neck

She's the queen
She's the queen


10.A Memory That Just Won't Quit

(walt aldridge/susan longacre)

I saw your car today
It looked like it anyway
Those foreign makes all look the same
It took me way back to
That time when i watched you
Slam the door and drive away
Ever since that night i just can shake your memory
It everywhere i go
And every thing i see

It all over town
Tryin?to track me down
Makin?sure that your old flame stays lit
Just like a blue tick hound
Doggin?me around
You e got a memory that just won quit

I've been out a time or two
But what a man to do
When your memory tags along
I tried to give it the slip
I got out in front of it
But somehow it always beats me home
It always seems to hunt me down
And chase me up a tree
No matter what i just can lose your memory

It all over town
Tryin?to track me down
Makin?sure that your old flame stays lit
Just like a blue tick hound
Doggin?me around
And you e got a memory that just won quit
Just like a blue tick hound
Doggin?me around
You e got a memory that just won quit
