Lyrics Dolly Parton – A Few Old Memories
Text:
Just a few old memories
Slipped in through my door
Though I thought I had closed it
So tightly before
I can’t understand it
Why it should bother my mind
For it all belongs to another place and time
Why it should bother my mind
For it all belongs to another place and time
Just a few old keep-sakes
Way back on the shelf
No, they don’t mean nothin’
Well I’m surprised they’re still left
Just a few old love letters
With the edges all brown
And an old faded picture
I keep turned upside-down
Just a few old memories
Going way back in time
Well I can hardly remember
I don’t know why I’m cryin’
I can’t understand it
Well I’m surprised myself
First thing tomorrow morning
I’ll clean off that shelf
Just a few old keep-sakes
Way back on the shelf
No, they don’t mean nothin’
Well I’m surprised that they’re left
Just a few old love letters
With their edges all brown
And an old faded picture
I keep turned upside-down
