all that keeps me goin’ is knowin’ that you love me and you’re mine
all that keeps me goin’ is knowin’ you’re gonna see me through troubled times
this morning when i woke up that ole sun didn’t wanna shine
so i just laid back and let your mem’ry fell down across my mind
and suddenly it was yesterday and i was lying in your arms
and somehow just the thought of you turned my world on and made me warm
all that keeps me goin’…
all that keeps me goin’…
this song’s for all the lonely women in the world
drivin’ a car sittin’ in a bar wherever you are
this song’s for all the lonely women in the world
ringin’ your hands thinkin’ no man understands
to me there’s nothing sadder than to see a lonely one
neglected by the one she loves so much
chances are she works all day and then goes home to night
and sits all night just longin’ for his touch
yet i’ve known girls with husbands in the house and still they’re lonely
they’ve lost him to the tv and the beer
i guess somehow my heart goes out to all the lonely women
in love with all the men who just don’t care
this song’s for all the lonely women in the world
sittin’ at home watchin’ the phone on and on
this song’s for all the lonely women in the world
ringin’ your hands thinkin’ no man understands
lips are you ready to tremble hands are you ready to shake
eyes get ready to cry heart get ready to break
here she comes now she’s gettin’ closer is everyone ready to start
altogether now let’s fall apart
nerves you’ll be going to pieces tears you’ll stream down my face
head you’ll be spinning around it’s time every one take your place
we’re all in this thing together my body my mind and my heart
altogether now let’s fall apart
i couldn’t keep her from leaving though i tried oh lord i tried
but heart you let me cheat then lips you went and lied
here she comes now she’s gettin’ closer does everyone remember his part
altogether now let’s fall apart altogether now let’s fall apart
always remember i love you i love you only you
always remember your whole life through i love you just you
i’d give anything in this world if i could be with you right now
and hold you real tight in my arms
but since i can’t i thought maybe if you knew how much i missed you
it might help you feel peaceful and warm
always remember i love you i love you you just you
always remember your whole life through i love you just you
and i ever thought i won’t be there to lay down beside you tonight
it’s not because i don’t care
darling you’re in every thought that i think every dream and every prayer
so always remember i love you i love you just you
an hour and a six-pack

i just got home and found a note that you left lying on my pillow case
you say you’re leaving me you found another man to take my place
and then you wish me luck and say you hope that i’ll get over you somehow
honey i won’t even know your name an hour and a six-pack from now
you’re an hour and a six-pack away from not existing anymore
an hour and a six-pack and i won’t care how much i cared before
watch the clock pop-the-tops swallow all the pain and then the pride
and with all that we had going baby don’t it hurt you knowing
my love is just an hour and a six-pack wide
i never was the kind of man who liked to stand and rummage through the ashes
when it’s gone then it’s gone take it out and leave it where the trash is
if you think i’ll be missing you this time tomorrow baby drop around
i’m an hour and a six-pack away from being over you right now
you’re an hour and a six-pack away from not existing anymore
an hour and a six-pack and i won’t care how much i cared before
watch the clock pop-the-tops smile and settle back and go to sleep
and with all that we had going don’t it hurt you baby knowing
my love is just an hour and a six-pack deep
