Jan Howard - Promises Promises lyrics

rate me

You've promised you would be true to me but we both know you could never be

You've been puttin' you on since the day we met

Promises promises that's all I ever get that's all I ever get

Then you promised me a ring a weddin' gown and all of them things

But I ain't seen no diamond yet

Promises promises that's all I ever get that's all I ever get

Promises promises that's all I get

All you gave me since the day we met you'll break my heart in two again I'll bet

Promises promises that's all I ever get that's all I ever get

[ steel ]

And now you tell me you've gone away you swear to me that this time you'll stay

But I can't believe that I'm rid of you yet

Promises promises that's all I ever get that's all I ever get

Promises promises that's all I get

All you gave me since the day we met...

All you gave me since the day we met...
