When I Call Your Name

Vince Gill When I Call Your Name Lyrics
1.Never Alone

You were like a lost kid looking for home
You found what you wanted right in my arms

If you walk out on me
Just leave your memory
Just take my sympathy and go
I love you so you're never alone

If you find another one turns your head
And you can't understand why it hurts so bad

If you walk out on me
Just leave your memory
Just take my sympathy and go

If you walk out on me
Just leave your memory
Just take my sympathy and go
I love you so you're never alone

Girl you're never alone
Never alone


2.Sight For Sore Eyes

When the storms of the day have all blown away along with fair
weather friends
There's a place i can go where the wind doesn't blow
It's the best place i've ever been

You're a sight for sore eyes
When i need a friend
You're a sight for sore eyes
Let the healing begin

When the chips are all down and there's no one around
To count on like i count on you
I just picture your face and let it erase
All the pain i'm goin' through

You're a sight for sore eyes
When i need a friend
You're a sight for sore eyes
Let the healing begin

When i get lost and i can't find my way
And there's nowhere to turn at the end of the day

You're a sight for sore eyes
When i need a friend
You're a sight for sore eyes
Let the healing begin

You're a sight for sore eyes
Let the healing begin


3.Oh Girl(You Know Where To Find Me)

Oh girl you know where to find me
Oh girl you know where i'll be
I'll be waitin' at the end of your line
'cause baby i've got nothin' but time
Oh girl you know where to find me

It was love at first glance
I asked you may i have this dance
You said you would i froze right where i stood
I come here every night
Oh there's nobody special in my life
So if you think you'd like to
Find someone to hold you some night

Oh girl you know where to find me
Oh girl you know where i'll be
I'll be waitin' at the end of your line
'cause baby i've got nothin' but time
Oh girl you know where to find me

Oh girl you know where to find me
Oh girl you know where i'll be
I'll be waitin' at the end of your line
'cause baby i've got nothin' but time
Oh girl you know where to find me

Oh girl you know where to find me


4.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


5.When I Call Your Name

I rushed home from work like i always do
I spent my whole day just thinking of you
When i walked through the front door my whole like was changed
Cause nobody answered when i called your name

A note on the table that told me goodbye
It said you'd grown weary of living a lie
Your love has ended but mine still remains
But nobody answers when i call your name

Oh the lonely sound of my voice calling
Is driving me insane
And just like rain the tears keep falling
Nobody answers when i call your name

Oh the lonely sound of my voice calling
Is driving me insane
And just like rain the tears keep falling
Nobody answers when i call your name
Oh nobody answers when i call your name


6.Ridin' The Rodeo

Driving all night too many miles to go
Pedal tot he metal listenin' to the radio
I got three days to get from cheyenne to san antone
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo

My back side's sore and i'm movin' kinda slow
But when i hit okie city there's a barrel racer that i know
A little home cookin' and some lovin' to heal my bones
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo

Ride cowboy ride hold on for your life
Eight seconds is a long long time when you're sitting on
dynamite
You can't make money buddy if get thrown
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo

Well i might get lucky down in san antone
Find a little texas girl i could call my own
That lone star lovin's the best i've ever known
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo

Ride cowboy ride hold on for your life
Eight seconds is a long long time when you're sitting on
dynamite
You can't make money buddy if get thrown
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo

That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo


7.Never Knew Lonely

No other lover ever really cared
When i've reached out for you you've always been there
Now i'm so far away and baby i'm scared
I never knew lonely til you

You are my rock and the strength i need
To keep me sane in this life that i lead
Now i'm not with you and my broken heart bleeds
I never knew lonely til you

I never knew lonely could be so blue
I never knew lonely could tear you in two
I never loved someone like i love you
I never knew lonely til you

I can't make up for the times i've been gone
But i'll prove i love you in the words of this song
Back in your arms girl it's where i belong
I never knew lonely til you

I never knew lonely could be so blue
I never knew lonely could tear you in two
I never loved someone like i love you
I never knew lonely til you


8.We Won't Dance

We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance

I kid you not we were hot
When the weekend came we'd dance non-stop
No jitterbug no substitute
No twist and turn no crasha nd burn
Could top us two

We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance

As i dipped you down in your yellow dress
We'd brush the floor in a slow caress
As minutes turned to a rising sun
We'd leave the day to rest
Our dancing done

We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance

If i were god and controlled what is
I'd steal your shoes so you couldn't dance with his
Well i'm not all that i could be
But you'll never dance with him
The way you danced with me

We won't dance no more
We won't dance no more
Well i'm not all that i could be
But you'll never dance with him
The way you danced with me

We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance

We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance


9.We Could Have Been

Today at work i overheard a name
I knew it wasn't yours but it touched me just the same
It felt so good to have you in my mind
I guess i'm the sentimental kind

I wonder who you became
Did you change the world
Or play the game
We came so close to love back then
We could have been

You were so brave when i was shy
I made you laugh when something made you cry
And i don't think we ever said goodbye
Now i'll always wonder why

I wonder who you became
Did you change the world
Or play the game
We came so close to love back then
We could have been

A time or two
I thought about calling
But something always gets in the way
Maybe i'm afraid you'd really answer
What would i say to you

I wonder who you became
Did you change the world
Or play the game
We came so close to love back then
We could have been

We could have been


10.Rita Ballou

How could she dance that slow bandera
Shuffle to some cowboy hustle
How she makes those trophy buckles shine, shine, shine
Wild-eyed and mexican silvered
Trickin' dumb ol' cousin willard
Into thinkin' that he's got her this time

Hill country holky tonkin' rita ballou
Every beer joint in town has played the fool for you
Backslidin' barrel ridin' rita ballou
Ain't a cowboy in texas would not ride a bull for you

She's a rawhide, rope, and velvet mixture
Walkin' talkin' texas texture
High timin' barroom fixture kind of a girl
She's the queen of the cowboys
Look at ol' willard grinnin' now boys you'd a thought there's
less fools in this world

Hill country holky tonkin' rita ballou
Every beer joint in town has played the fool for you
Backslidin' barrel ridin' rita ballou
Ain't a cowboy in texas would not ride a bull for you

So good luck willard and here's to ya
And here's to rita and i hope she'll do ya
Right all night
Lord i wish i was the fool in your jeans

Hill country holky tonkin' rita ballou
Every beer joint in town has played the fool for you
Backslidin' barrel ridin' rita ballou
Ain't a cowboy in texas would not ride a bull for you

Hill country holky tonkin' rita ballou
Every beer joint in town has played the fool for you
Backslidin' barrel ridin' rita ballou
Ain't a cowboy in texas would not ride a bull for you
