This weekly series
will include as many of my all-time favorite tunes as I can get my grubby
little hands on (so to speak). Now, each
one included in each edition will have some connection with the other—albeit
only as a figment of my imagination, but they will not be numbered. For I just cannot bring myself to rate some
higher than others. So, this will not be
a countdown, but if you are enjoying them as much as I do, it won’t
matter. Besides, with no countdown, this
could go on forever and ever! Oh, and
despite the fact that there is absolutely no way that your musical tastes can
be as exquisite as mine, I welcome any suggestions that you might dare to
make. I am, after all, quite magnanimous
by nature.
Tear-Stained Letter
Jo-El Sonnier
It was three in the
mornin’
When she took me
apart
She wrecked the
furniture
She wrecked my
heart
She danced on my
head
Like Arthur Murray
The scars ain’t
never goin’
To mend in a hurry
Just when I thought
I could learn to
forget her
Right through the
door
Come a tear-stained
letter
Oh
Oh
Oh
Love
Love
Cry cry
If it makes you
feel better
Set it all down
In a tear-stained
letter
Oh
Oh
Oh
Love
Love
Cry cry
If it makes you
feel better
Set it all down
In a tear-stained
letter
Well my head was
beatin’
Like a song by the
Clash
It was writin’
checks
That my body
couldn’t cash
I got to my feet
I was reelin’ and
dizzy
I went for the
phone
But the line was
busy
Just when I thought
that
Things would get
better
Right through the
door
Come a tear-stained
letter
Oh
Oh
Oh
Love
Love
Cry cry
If it makes you
feel better
Set it all down
In a tear-stained
letter
Oh
Oh
Oh
Love
Love
Cry cry
If it makes you
feel better
Set it all down
In a tear-stained
letter
Now I like coffee
And I like tea
But I just don’t
like
This fiddle-di-gee
It makes me nervous
It gives me the
hives
Waitin’ for a kiss
From a bunch of
fives
Just when I thought
I could learn to
forget her
Right through the
door
Come a tear-stained
letter
Oh
Oh
Oh
Love
Love
Cry cry
If it makes you
feel better
Set it all down
In a tear-stained
letter
Oh
Oh
Oh
Love
Love
Cry cry
If it makes you
feel better
Set it all down
In a tear-stained
letter
Oh
Oh
Oh oh oh
Love
Love
Cry cry
If it makes you
feel better
Set it all down
In a tear-stained
letter
Oh
Oh
Oh
Love
Love
Cry cry
If it makes you
feel better
Set it all down
In a tear-stained
letter
Oh
Oh
Oh oh oh
Love
Love
Cry cry
If it makes you
feel better
Set it all down
In a tear-stained
letter
