Wynette, Tammy - What Do They Know Lyrics






They say that life goes on
I'll find true love again.
It's not the end of the world,
One day my heart will mend.
Someone will come along and a new love will grow
Thats what they say but what do they know
How could they know the pain I feel inside my heart,
They never lost your love,
So who do they think they are.
They never held you, or had to let you go.
Well they're not trying to live without you,
So what do they know.

They say all is fair in love
But for me that's just not true.
I feel like someone took a knife
And cut my life in two.
It's better to have love and lost
Than to have never loved, I'm told.
At least that's what they say, but what do they know
Well they're not trying to live without you,
So what do they know.

    irritates me that everyone assumes that she sang all of these songs for George. she could have had him if she wanted to but she divorced him. she was married to her last husband for 20 years. George was married to nancy for 30 years.

    Oh, does it just to irritate you, LOL

    One of my favorite songs. RIP Tammy!

  12. L.... P....

    Tammy’s my very favorite + I have been to see her several times.Reba too.

  13. C.... E....

    Who ever had the opporturnity see and speak to this wonderfull Lady once in his Life, will never forget her. It was one of my saddest day to hear about her passing away and not to be able to guide her around Vienna, she was so eager to see. Her Daughter Georgina came instead! In Memory she stays on!

    C.... E....

    Ritchie keep her on Drugs in the end!! Her daughters lost a true Angel!

  14. W.... A....

    Did she record this in 1994? or before. I believe it was in the early 80's but released in 1994

    W.... A....

    One her last recordings

  15. P.... A....

    Great song and great country singer.

  16. L.... ....

    Stunning is all I can say!

  17. B.... H....

    You know i still cry to these day Tammy and George really loved each.Nancy because of lonelyness in both.of them.but the true LOVE.WAS TAMMY AND GEORGE. SAD TWO GREAT PEOPLE.

  18. d.... s....

    Only 500 likes? What the hell is the matter with people?

    d.... s....

    1995 I accidentaly came to Nashville and taken by a couple I just met, in a Saloon and at the Gate I heard a song of heartbreaking words, I did not know who was the performer, so this couple told me her Name, my answer was never heard of, the ask do you know “stand by your Man“ yes I do and so I realised that this Woman is something special, yes she is and will be in my memory for ever. Tammy whereever you are now, here in Vienna is someone who adores you and feels sorry very sorry, never been able to show you my City and the famous places of Music here, you wanted to see. So long my dear............

  19. G.... P....

  21. G.... D....

    Might be my favorite song of all time. Won't be any more like her.

  22. W.... A....

    I wonder if George Jones ever hestd this song or many others she sang about him

    W.... A....

    She did not write this song about George. It is mines and sunny's song.

  23. C.... D....

    I wish I had the privilege of meeting this lovely lady

  24. R.... R....

  28. B.... P....

    Who ever put thumbs down don't know a good singer when they hear one

    B.... P....

    Or they just do not like the song. Very simple. To each their own. :)

  29. B.... P....

    The saddest song I've heard Tammy singing about george is till I can make it on my own and this one you can really here the hurt in her voice

    B.... P....

    She is not singing about him. It is about SUNNY and the.............WOMAN. And..............blondie.

  30. B.... P....

    t ammys only true love was george Jones and she loved him till she passed away you could see it every time they sung together

    B.... P....

    Maybe the love changed. She did after all,remarry. We will not know till we are in Heaven and review her records.

    B.... P....

    I never trusted George Richey at all + there were weird things about her death and the hours afterward.

  31. B.... P....

    Hard to think that she wasn't thinking of George Jones here. Sad, and beautiful.

    Thanks for uploading this. "What Do They Know" was Tammy's last ever solo studio recording (the last track on "Without Walls"(1994)). This album only had one other Tammy solo which was track one "If It's The Last Thing I Do". Both are great songs.
