Haggard, Merle - Wake Up Lyrics
Wake up, don't just lay there like cold granite stone
Wake up, we're too close to be alone
Wake up and please darling, hold me if you would
Don't just lay there like you've gone away for good
I can't believe it's over and you've closed the final door
And I'm not prepared to handle these things we're going through
I wish God would grant me just one more night with you
Wake up, don't just lay there like cold granite stone
Wake up, we're too close to be alone
Wake up and please darling, hold me if you would
Don't just lay there like you've gone away for good
Without you I'll feel worthless, like a bell that doesn't ring
And I can't stand it all much longer, I'll go crazy without you
I wish God would grant me just one more night with you
Wake up, don't just lay there like cold granite stone
Wake up, we're too close to be alone
Wake up and please darling, hold me if you would
Don't just lay there like you've gone away for good
Don't just lay there like you've gone away for good

ANOTHER GREAT SONG FROM MERLE R I P
When I think of country music, there are a few artists who come immediately to mind; Johnny Cash, Buck Owens, Ray Price, and Merle Haggard. And George.
This song was to merle harggards dear departed mother ( WAKE UP )
RIP merle thanks for all the beautiful music
all the way from beautiful
Nassau, bahamas 🇧🇸
Omg that fiidle and saxophone duo blows me away every time, the sax is damn screamin
Tears in my eyes.
Beautiful👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯💯💯
Know exactly what your singing about i went through the same thing
Just love for merle forever
AND a little flavor of, The Yellow Rose of Texas.
Long ago and far away. What little I HAVE HAD in life was only something to lose. Now everything is only a memory of something long ago and far away.
Wake Up, also, melody wise, has the flavor of, A Girl like You, by Tompall & the Glaser Brothers.
To me, This song has a touch of the melody of, Once a Day, written by Bill Anderson and recorded by Connie Smith AND in my opinion BOTH Merle & Connie ARE the BEST OF THE BEST!!!
Sure is the best f.rom Aussie tom
Wow....a great one. "one more night with you" as he says in "Wake Up"
he was my dad favor singer and now i come on YouTube to remember him and merle now
Mr Haggard would be so very happy to see the way Our Country is on the RIGHT TRACK W/PRESIDENT TRUMP!!@@@@
H
Talkin' to the wall.
This song has got some of the most precious words that really could be your marriage or beloved gone to heaven! I love it and it reminds me of my Angel Husband who passed nearly 2 yrs. ago.
Hag will live forever in my house. The greatest country singer ever.
There will never be any one like the old country outlaws merle waylon Johnny and Chris and willy I'm so glad that I had privilege of growing up and listening to them in their prime and left so many memories for us to listen to.
One of the best songs ever!
Canção maravilhosa! Adoro Merle Haggard.
Wake up, don't just lay there like cold granite stone
Wake up, we're too close to be alone
Wake up and please darling, hold me if you would
Don't just lay there like you've gone away for good
There's too many empty pages
With so many things in store
I can't believe it's over
And you've closed the final door
And I'm not prepared to handle
These things we're going through
I wish God would grant me
Just one more night with you
----------------------
Wake up, don't just lay there like cold granite stone
Wake up, we're just too close to be alone
Wake up and please darling, hold me if you would
Don't just lay there like you've gone away for good
Without you I'll feel worthless,
Like a bell that doesn't ring
And I know you hear me talkin'
Yet you haven't heard a thing
And I can't stand it all much longer,
I'll go crazy without you
I wish God would grant me
Just one more night with you
Wake up, don't just lay there like cold granite stone
Wake up, we're just too close to be alone
Wake up and please darling, hold me if you would
Don't just lay there like you've gone away for good
Don't just lay there like you've gone away for good.....
The words on the first screen said it all.
" This song doesn't require any video".
That's a true Merle Haggard.
Just look at that face and each wrinkle and see his wisdom and talent in each of his "earned" wrinkles.
They just don't make 'em anymore like Merle.
RIP OUR BELOVED FRIEND AND SINGER.
Yesterday I thought it was about a broken relationship. Was in my head all night and this morning, while thinking about my wife, I had the idea she passed. Listened again and that's what I'm getting.
Wake up
I have been there twice
I was not raised by my birth mother don,t know her but I remember her
i was raised by another lady both of them a long gone
But i wish to god i could see both of them now so I understand ( wake up )
Wake. Up
But sadly when those MOTHERS are gone they gone it is then you wish she would
Wake up
RIP merle

My favorite Merle Haggard song and a great song to dance too.
Merle's song, "Favorite Memory of Mine" is my go-to song, it reminds me of the first time I met my husband, We were married 37 years He has been gone for 11 years now How I wish he was still here with me, but I know I will see him someday.

My beige Stetson hat off to those YOUTUBE personal for the exceptional County Music selections made available for all of us to enjoy.
I am a 73 year Tejano, who has been enjoying the sounds of country music since I was in Lamar Junior High School in Laredo Tejas. Some of my favorite artists from the late 70’s were the out laws W. Nelson, Waylon, J. Cash, C.Christopherson. (Sp)., but today, I realized Merle Haggard should have been included in my list of favorites, because his music and songs are just as great as the others I mention. Truly a great music artists in my humble Tejano opinion. Today Meryl and Willis sons are carrying on the country music songs tradition and i’m very great full and love it..
God Bless Tejas & Mighty United States.
