Dean Martin Album

(I don't know what I'm doing more than half of the time)

When the party is over and the laughter is through
And the last song stops playing I'll be thinking of you
For there's such a sweet mem'ry when you're crossing my mind
I don't know what I'm doing more than half of the time

I don't know what I'm doing with this drink in my hand
Guess I just gone to pieces like a ship on the sand
Your sweet name I keep calling while you jumble my mind
I don't know what I'm doing more than half of the time
(I don't know what I'm doing more than half of the time)

I may never find sunshine if I'd never find you
So I'll search all the places where the lights burning blue
Oh you just might be lonesome when I'm fooling my mind
I don't know what I'm doing more than half of the time
I don't know what I'm doing more than half of the time

...With a hug and a kiss for a shield
For the right kind of woman

I would keep every tear from her eye
There is nothing that I wouldn't try
I would pull down the stars from the sky
For the right kind of woman

I would make her queen on a throne
If she promised to be mine alone...

Everybody knows you're leaving me for good
Everybody tells me now they knew you would
It's a well known secret I just couldn't see
And the whole world knew with a small exception of me

Everybody knows we cried our final tears
Everybody knows we wasted all these years
Long ago they said I'd have to sat you free
And the whole world knew with a small exception of me

With a small exception of me the world is wise
With a small exception of me it's no surprise

So it's funny the way that I could be so blind
Funny when it's out of sight it's out of mind
Now the truth has known and it's plain enough to see
That the whole world knew with a small exception of me

Neon lights barroom bands hotel rooms one night stands
When it's party time you'll find me at the head of the line
Midnight cowboy singing his song to every girl who comes along
My life's made up of party dolls and wine

Party dolls and wine yeah drink and let the good times roll
Party dolls and wine making mem'ries for the days when I grow old

They say that someday I'll meet my match but until that time down the hatch
With that bubbling sparkling tantalizing fruit of the vine
I know someday I'll be put in my place but I'll die happy with a smile on my face
Remembering all those party dolls and wine

Party dolls and wine yeah drink and let the good times roll...

Midnight cowboy singing his song to every girl who comes along
My life's made up of party dolls and wine

Party dolls and wine yeah drink and let the good times roll...
Party dolls and wine yeah drink and let the good times roll...

Saturday evening it started all over for me
Though I promised myself never again would it be
You phoned and said meet me and even as I told you no
Temptation was a winnin' I felt my feet start to go

That's how blue mem'ries get started all over again
That's what keeps a jukebox play until you know when
And that's what makes a guy cling to warm red wine
Cause those blue mem'ries can sure get lonesome some time
( horns ) Saturday evening it started all over for me...
That's how blue mem'ries...

(That's what makes a guy cling to warm red wine)
Cause those blue mem'ries can sure get lonesome some time
(Those blue mem'ries can sure get lonesome some time
Those blue mem'ries can sure get lonesome some time)

I can give you what you want now if you still want what I could give
I can give the love you want now your love is all I need to live
I can give you what you want now lonesliness has made me see
I can give you what you want now if love is all you need from me

I tried to get the things I wanted but I wanted them for you
When all you ever really needed was a simple I love you
If you can tell me that you love me and mean it like you used to do
I can give you what you want now I can make your dreams come true

I can give you what you want now loneliness has made me see
I can give you what you want now if you dtill want to see from me
(I can give you what you want now)

I never had no regrets boys not for nothin' I've done
I owed the devil some debts boys paid 'em all up but one
And I don't even regret the livin' that I'll be leaving behind
I've gotten weary of searching for something I couldn't find

I'm going down to the shade by the river one more time
And feel the breeze on my face before I die
I'm gonna leave whatever's left of my luck for the losers
And then bend down kiss the world goodbye

Come to lucky-in-lovin' I never had no complains
They never said I was evil but then I wasn't no saint
I'm just a river that rolled forever and never got to the sea
I just ain't blamin' nobody I had it coming to me

I'm going down to the shade by the river one more time...
I never had no regrets boys not for nothin' I've done...

I come from just the other side of nowhere to this big time lonesome town
They got a lotta ice and snow here half as cold as all the people I found
Every way I've tried to go here seems to bring me down
Seen about enough to know where I belong

I've got a mind to see the headlight
Shining on that old white line between my heart and home
Sick of spendin' Sundays wishing they were Mondays sittin' in a park alone
So give my best to anyone who's left who ever done me any lovin' way but wrong
Tell 'em that the pride of just the other side of nowhere going home

Taking nothing but to show there for these dues that I've paid
But the soul I almost sold here and the body I've been given away
Fadin' from the neon night time glow here headin' for the light of day
Just the other side of nowhere going home
Just the other side of nowhere going home

Someone really loves you guess who oh guess who
Someone really cares guess who
Open your heart surely then you'll see
That this someone who cares is me

Someone will wait eternally
Someone who wants your love desperately
Open up your heart surely then you'll see
That this someone who cares is me

(Someone really loves you) guess who oh guess who
(Someone really cares) guess who
Open up your heart surely then you'll see
That this someone who cares is me
(Someone someone)

...

Can you picture them? Once a day
When the chill just won't go away
You have something to warm you
In the warmest way

Time will allow...
