Well, you left me and you went away
You said that you’d be back yesterday
You’ve broken your promise and you left me here alone
I don’t know why you did it babe, but I do know that you’re gone
Well I’m walking the floor over you
I can’t sleep a wink, you know it’s true
Hoping and I’m praying as my heart breaks right in two
Well I’m walking the floor over you
Well someday you may be lonesome too
Walking the floor is good for you
When your feet start walking and it won’t hurt you to try
Remember that I love you babe and I will till the day I die
Walking the floor over you
I can’t sleep a wink you know it’s true
Hoping and I’m praying as my heart breaks right in two
Walking the floor over you
Walking the floor over you
I can’t sleep a wink you know it’s true
Hoping and I’m praying as my heart breaks right in two
Walking the floor over you
Walking the floor over you
I can’t sleep a wink you know it’s true
Hoping and I’m praying as my heart breaks right in two
Walking the floor over you
Well I’m walking, walking the floor over you
I can’t sleep a wink you know it’s true
Hoping and I’m praying as my heart breaks right in two
Walking the floor over you
In 1978 I had the pleasure of seeing Ernest Tubb and the Texas Triubadors in Colorado Springs. That Saturday night is one of the most memorable nights of music I can recall.
I love thus old country. I don't like where country is heading, it's heading out of country and selling out, being bought up, taking over by pop culture.
April 26, 1941 - Ernest Tubb records "Walking The Floor Over You," "Our Baby's Book," "When The World Has Turned You Down," "I'll Always Be Glad To Take You Back" and "Mean Mama Blues" at the Biggs Studio in Dallas, Texas. :)
I want to thank my Grandpa Bucci, he had a old pickup with a 4 track player..... and owned only 1 tape and it was Ernest ..... time well spent with Grandpa..
Old country is the only good country music.... it borders on blues and even rockabilly and early rock.... some of the best music came from the southern United States in that time period
