Nelson, Willie - I Couldn't Believe It Was True Lyrics






Well, last night I came home an' I knocked on my door,
An' I called to my love as I oft had before.
An' I knocked an' I knocked: no answer thee came.
No kisses to greet me or voice call my name.

An' I couldn't believe it was true, oh Lord.
Couldn't believe it was true.
An' my eyes filled with tears an' I must've aged in years,
An' I couldn't believe it was true.

[Instrumental break]

Well, the shock was so great, I am quiverin' yet.
An' I'll try to forgive but I cannot forget.
My heart breakin' loss is another man's gain.
Her happiness, always, I hope will remain.

An' I couldn't believe it was true, oh Lord.
Couldn't believe it was true.
An' my eyes filled with tears an' I must've aged in years,
An' I couldn't believe it was true.

    Unfortunately I lost my 1st Willie Vape Pen in the ER, blushing, just my luck, lol... But Went & Bought Another Willie's Vape Pen & Some Medicinal Harlequin, as they did not have the Charlotte's Web, Plus a gram of Indica for some well needed beautyrest, lol... Then a gram of Sativa in hopes that I can stay awake during the day with the chronic fatigue, as with the GERD I'm not allowed to lay down, but I'm fIgHtInG with all I can to make all work in the most positive ways as possible, just like far to many others in this fast paced world we all reside in...

    I don't know if Willie ever did anything that topped this album. Total greatness.

  8. R.... T....

    Every line of this song is part of of a great poem.
    Well, the shock is so great I am quivering yet.
    I'll try to forgive, but I cannot forget.
    My heart breaking loss is another man's gain.
    Her happiness always I hope will remain.
    ... great, American, Western poem.

  9. �.... �....

    If you upload and the album "Phases and Stages" this will be the best channel.

  10. G.... I....

    Cause ya cant hang a man for killin a women when shes trying to steal your horse

  11. A.... C....

    Fifteen people are dyslexic.

    A.... C....

    and one guy's a douchebag

  12. A.... A....

    saw Willie once six years ago in concert in Rome Georgia in an ice storm one of the best concerts I've ever been to got this whole album on cassette&cd I too got mine out of the $5dollar bine at Kmart though saw the movie wish I could find it on DVD it's based off this album Willie is the lead &I think Morgan Fairchild is the woman.i got stagecoach staring all The Highwaymen & once upon a Texas train

  13. J.... L....

    Just saw Red Headed Stranger in a $5 bin at the Walmart-next to Nickelback. I did the the right thing and saved it. Such a thing of beauty doesn't deserve a fate next to Nickelback, it deserves to be on repeat in my car.

    J.... L....

    Good find I wore one out! Aging myself (8track)

    J.... L....

    James LeRoy well, what do you drive

    J.... L....

    James LeRoy you're my hero

    J.... L....

    thats a better deal than the Louisiana Purchase

    J.... L....

    Thank you for being a good samaritain. Not all heroes wear capes.

  14. t.... ....

    10 listeners are doucherockets:-(

  15. N.... C....

    This is where he mastered his guitar sound

  16. G.... T....

    I would like to thank you Mr. Willie Nelson for the many decades of enjoyment from this album. I literally wore the damned album out. I have cried, laughed, partied, prayed while listening to this album. A true classic. Thank you, sir!

  17. J.... Q....

    Willie if you see this shit we'd like to see you in concert

  18. C.... P....

    " for ya can't hang a man, for killin a woman, that's trying to steal yer horse...."

  19. s.... b....

    The best

  20. E.... P....

    The best version of all of this song... GO WILLIE!!! YEAH!!! LOVE IT!

  21. E.... A....

    Can the old man play or what. His guitar playing is unique and smooth as silk. Willie is the best!

    E.... A....

    saw him a few months ago and damn he can bend them strings! Trigger is a classical guitar and its been beaten up so much that there is no sound like it on this planet!

  22. S.... C....

    Eddy Arnold recorded this song in 1948

  23. H.... S....
