Vince Gill Vince Gill&Friends Lyrics
1.Don't Say That You Love Me

I'm gonna tell you right up front
So you will understand
I ain't gonna waste your time
'cause i might not be your man
We won't go makin' promises
'cause you know it just ain't right
A promise is a promise, girl
And tonight is just tonight
Tonight is just tonight

Chorus:
Don't say that you love me
If it don't feel right
Don't say that you love me
Just hold me tonight

There ain't no need for broken hearts
I know in time they mend
Any fool can fall in love
It's so easy to pretend
Don't tell me i'm the only one
If it doesn't mean a thing
Let's take tonight for what it's worth
And see what tomorrow brings
And see what tomorrow brings

Chorus (to fade)


2.Everybody's Sweetheart

When i told my baby
Do what you wanna do
Well i had no idea
Just what she'd put me through

Every night she's runnin' 'round
Singin' songs in your hometown
There ain't no one to love me
When the sun goes down

Chorus:
Well, she's everybody's sweetheart
Everybody's sweetheart but mine
I shoulda kept her barefoot
Barefoot and pregnant all the time
I used to be the first in line
Now i've fallen way behind
She's everybody's sweetheart
Everybody's sweetheart but mine

All that country club money
Lord it sure looked good to me... yeah it did
Playin' golf with those fat cats
How much better could life be
They all think i've got it made
They see your face on every page
Of every magazine
Across the usa

Chorus

If you see her tell her hi
And everything will be all right
Tell her that i love her
'til the day i die

Chorus

Come on home


3.Let's Do Something

Nothin' to do in this lonely town
Your daddy warned me, 'son,
you come around' says i ain't good enough for you
He don't know what i'm goin' through

Chorus:
Let's do something
Sneak out your bedroom window, girl
And we'll be gone
Let's do something
Oh, baby, let's do something
Even if it's wrong

Go see the preacher 'cross the couty line
For 25 dollars he could make you mine
My heart's on fire, can't you feel it burn
I'm past the point of no return

Chorus

I'll make your daddy understand
Oh, lord, i know i can make him understand
I'll face your daddy man to man
No guts, no glory, girl, i'll take that chance

Chorus x 2


4.Oh Carolina

Sunrise through the evergreens
Another day is born
The hills take on a golden glow
A carolina morn

I used to see you in her eyes
Now i just got to know
Oh carolina, how could you let her go

Chorus:
Oh carolina, if i'd only known
Oh carolina, i would have never gone

I thought the beauty of your hills
Would hold her here for me
I never dreamed while i was gone
You'd ever set her free
I trusted you with all my heart
And the only love i've known
Oh carolina, how could you let her go

Repeat chorus x 2

I would have never gone


5.Oklahoma Swing

Ther's a redhead from my hometown that loves to let her hair
down
She tears my heart out when she starts to sing
She's from the right side of red river and she's pretty as a
picture
Don't you know she's this ole cowboy's dream

There's a boy from okie city and i sure think he's pretty
But i know he's trying to steal my heart away
Oh my mama tried to warn me he's done time in california
But he'll be an okie til his dyin' day

There's a dance we do in oklahoma
A dnace like you've never seen
Sit back and we're gonna show ya
How to do that oklahoma swing

Well when two okies get together man there's nothin' they like
better
Than to hold each other on a dawdust floor
Oh i love it when we're swayin' to those sweet twi fiddles
playin'
Come on boy what are we waitin' for

There's a dance we do in oklahoma
A dnace like you've never seen
Sit back and we're gonna show ya
How to do that oklahoma swing

Yeah there's a dance we do in oklahoma
A dnace like you've never seen
Sit back and we're gonna show ya
Yeah how to do that oklahoma swing
How to do that oklahoma swing


6.Turn Me Loose

Chorus:
You better turn me loose
Turn me loose you know that i can't stay
You better turn me loose
Well turn me loose you know i'll make it anyway

Well why don't you tell me
Just what's goin' on
Both of us lyin' here
And we both know it's wrong
So why don't you let me
Why don't you leave it alone
And don't keep hangin' on to a love that's dead and gone

Chorus

Well you can't see it's over
That's really a shame
Well our love didn't make it
No one's to blame
So why don't we say goodbye
Why don't we just say we're through
And i'll be on my way
And i'll get by without you

Chorus x 2

Turn me loose you know i'll make it anyway


7.Way Back Home

A little girl was cryin'
For her mama and her daddy
She couldn't understand why they were gone
She never knew the danger
Of talking to a stranger
Now the girl can't find her way back home

A little boy went walkin'
Down to the corner market
To buy a loaf of bread and an ince cream cone
He never knew the dnager
Of talkin' to a stranger
Now the boy can't find the way back home

Chorus:
Too many kids are missin'
Is anybody listening?
Won't you be the children's eyes
They're all alone
The hardest part's not knowing
Where they are or where they're going
Won't you help the children find
The way back home

The faces on milk cartons
Thrown away and soon forgotten
What if one of those sweet kids
Was your very own

Tonight those kids are weeping
While yours are safely sleeping
Won't you help the children find
The way back home

Chorus

Won't you help the children find
The way back home


8.What If I Say Goodbye

What if i say i love you
Would it mean as much as it used to
Could it help the hurt that we're putting us through
What if i said goodbye

What if tomorrow you wake up
And i'm not around what you break up
Would you take one towards me to make up
What if i said goodbye

What would you do if i did what i should have done long ago
Is there someone you'd turn to as soon as i left
Someone you already know

What if i say i love you
Would you want to make up like i do
Could we possibly salvage the dreams we knew
What if i said goodbye

What would you do if i did what i should have done long ago
Is there someone you'd turn to as soon as i left
Someone you already know

What if i say i love you
Would it mean as much as used to
Could it help the hurt that we're putting us through
What if i said goodbye
