Jim Reeves - Don't Ask Me Why Lyrics






Don't ask me why I stand aside
And watch her break every rule
Why I close my eyes to her schemes and lies
And play the part of a fool.

Don't ask me why I love her still
After all she's done to me
After deceiving me and leaving me
With a heart full of misery.

You might as well ask me why I breathe
Or why I live at all
I only know I must be there
To answer if she calls.

Don't ask me why I hang around
Why I keep standing by
But if you want to know I'll say I love her so
Though I don't know the reason why.

You might as well ask me why I breathe
Or why I live at all
I only know I must be there
To answer if she calls.

Don't ask me why I hang around
Why I keep standing by
But if you want to know I'll say I love her so
Though I don't know the reason why...

    Certainly better than the Beatles is our Jim Reeves!

  4. G.... P....

    Jim Reeves sang in this high pitched style before he changed his pitch to a lower one - that gained him worldwide acclaim.

  5. L.... ....

    Agreed...these folk were so good ...the younger generatuion has lost the sense of music ...it's all learned now in a few months...they will ask ..'Can you show me how to play that? I say ..yes, but it may take a few years!

  6. G.... B....

    There are some great guitarists, but only one Chet Atkins. And there are some fine singers, but only one Jim Reeves. I can't find anyone better than those two at what they did.

  7. L.... ....

    Thanks for replay ..Atkins was / is? such a great player and musician.
    Who is following in that tradition?

  8. G.... B....

    Early, yes. 1956. It was for RCA and produced by Chet Atkins( who I also admire)

  9. G.... B....

    Yes. Been a long time since I heard Jim sing that. Thank you.
