Текст песни Your Old Standby

(Jim Eanes - Wayne Perry)
George Jones & Gene Pitney

(I'm nothing more than just your old standby.)

(George)
A shoulder to cry on is all you want from me
Someone to share your heartache when you cry
(Gene)
Someone you can depend on, who will always be around
I'm nothing more than just your old standby.

(Both)
If you could call me darling, if you could call me dear
If you could learn to love me, by and by
I wouldn't mind this waiting for I could stand the painGeorge Jones - Your Old Standby - http://ru.motolyrics.com/george-jones/your-old-standby-lyrics.html

(George)
You wouldn't call me darling and you wouldn't call me dear
I wonder if you'll miss me when I die
(Gene)
You have no consideration, you show no empathy
I'm nothing more than just your old standby.

(Both)
If you could call me darling, if you could call me dear
If you could learn to love me, by and by
I wouldn't mind this waiting for I could stand the pain
I'd be more to you than just your old standby...
