Haggard, Merle - Shelly's Winter Love Lyrics
I know I'm only Shelly's winter love
She only seems to need me now and then
I know I'm only Shelly's winter love
But she's mine alone till springtime comes again
When those friends of her's start callin' her uptown
So I live and wait for Shelly's winter season
When her troubled moments bring her back around
I know I'm only Shelly's winter love
She only seems to need me now and then
I know I'm only Shelly's winter love
But she's mine alone till springtime comes again
When Shelly's painted world turns cold and stormy
To these arms of mine she knows are always waiting
But she'll leave when love has thawed the winter ground
I know I'm only Shelly's winter love
She only seems to need me now and then
I know I'm only Shelly's winter love
But she's mine alone till springtime comes again

shellys love
RIP Merle. I've always loved this beautiful song.
I miss hearing Byron Bently singing this song, we miss you
IF ANYONE has this song by the Osborne Brothers...PLEASE download it and let me know! The first time I heard it was by the Osborne Brothers...and it has a very special meaning to me! All I can find is this one by Merle Haggard...I like it, but the Osborne Brothers version has a little different rhythm to it, and I like it a little better! THANKS!
+Joy Jenner Have you heard The McPeak Brothers do it? Heavenly and it's here on YouTube.
+Joy Jenner Research it again.. I recently posted it on 45..
+chris boggess THANKS, Chris!
I checked it out...but they must have been playing around on that recording, because it is NOT they way I remember them singing it the first time I heard it!
The first time I ever heard this song, was by the Osborne Brothers, and it was BEAUTIFUL! It literally brought me to my knees in tears, because of what the song represents to me!
The one you posted, was not the *serious* version I heard by them back in 1977. But THANKS for the effort!
Grew up hearing this song in the early 70's.
Hag, Lefty and those of their era epitomized country music.
A great song, y A great singer..!!
My Baby girl, Shelley, came to me by birth in Winter, and left me in the Spring because of a drunk driver! Just 1 hour & 32 minutes more, and Shelley would have been exactly 6 months old to the minute when she died in my arms! Shelley was my winter love...I dedicated this song to her memory 40 years ago!
Merle sings what we can't say to you about your loss. Stay strong Betty
Betty Jenner - Merle wrote this
My mom lost my older brother to sids 28 years ago
i'm so very sorry,
Betty Jenner A beautiful memory and memorial to your Angel in Heaven. God Bless!!
The best song that he ever recorded, by far.
Great song...........Merle, you left the guitar pick in your strings..........
I was born in the 70's & my parents named me after this song. The Hagg is what REAL country music. Is!
Yes, he was 1 of a kind
Shelly Harrell hag is all I listen to
another long forgotten great tunes from our past, shame supposed today's country music radio doesn't know it's not country that most claim it to be. why not keep the Pop sound separate from Country Music??? just a thought.
Youggle-It ....... if-n ya can't fix-it. FUCKING LITTLE BITCH TODAY'S COUNTRY IS SO FAR FROM POP IT'S SCARY. YOU WILL NEVER COME CLOSE TO FINDING ANYTHING CLOSE TO POP IN TODAY'S COUNTRY YOU STUPID FUCKED UP LITTLE SHIT. SO THAT MEANS THEY ARE KEEPING COUNTRY SEPARATE FROM POP DUMB BITCH. ALSO THE C IN COUNTRY M IN MUSIC AND P IN POP DOES NOT NEED CAPITALIZING BITCH.
One of my very favorite country songs that I have sung many, many times with my former band "The Country Rebels" of Rayville, LA! www youtube com/GeneStewart71269
Start singing it again at the RE-OPENED LOUISIANA HAYRIDE!!!!! ITS TIME YALL!!!!

With the Hag they are all #!1 hits in my book. He even wrote one about me. Carolyn a little known b side of a 45. It sounded like it was influenced by Marty Robbins.
Merle has been my favorite country singer for many years.
one of my favourite Hag songs, he never disapoints.
Yeah! This is a good song! Not a soul that sings can do this better! Sing on Merle!
Janelle In Houston
I have loved this song from the first time I heard it. Was one of my favorites to perform, Merle Haggard is one of the true country artists,
AND , OH YES, HE CAN SING
I LISTENED TO THESE WONDERFUL TUNES WHILE I WAS A GUEST AT THE ELLIS UNIT IN HUNTSVILLE , TX. FOR 12 YEARS.
I love, love , love this song sing it again Merle. You the man.
My baby sister, that passed away was also named Shelli. Hard to find this song in CD though.

@slimshell88 Wonderfull.
oh my gosh. you don't know how long I have tried to find this song. I didn't know the name of it. Or who sang it. I heard it when I was a little girl. My stepdad sang it one night. I have asked him about it since then and he couldn't remember what song I was talking about. and I have tried typing in names I thought it could be. I cried tonight because of the memory it brought back. thank you so much.
I was born in 1969- and named Shelly after this song because my mom always loved it.
Me too except I was born in 1974
@BettyJenner1951 May God Bless you and you Shelley...
OMG ... never thought I'd see this here! LOVE this song!!!
