Rivers, Johnny - You Win Again Lyrics






What a dream I had
Pressed in organdy
Clothed in crinoline
Of smoky burgundy
Softer than the rain

I wandered empty streets
Down past the shop displays
I heard cathedral bells
Tripping down the alley ways
As I walked on

And when you ran to me
Your cheeks flushed with the night
We walked on frosted fields
Of juniper and lamplight
I held your hand

And when I awoke
And felt you warm and near
I kissed your honey hair
With my grateful tears
Oh, I love you, girl
Oh, I love you

Rivers, Johnny You Win Again Comments
  1. W.... ....

    WOW!!!!!! This is absolutely fabulous. What a truly beautiful version of this great old song by Hank Williams. And yes it is very similar to the Jerry Lee Lewis version. I think maybe I like it even better no offense to Jerry meant. Love it.

  2. W.... H....

    Jann Wenner of Rolling Stone magazine fame is the one who has kept Johnny out of the RRHOF.

  3. R.... P....

    R.... D....

    I've been listening to Johnny all day. My mother walked in earlier and asked was I listening to Billy Joe Royal. You're not alone!

  9. L.... H....

  13. t.... ....

    One of our most underrated musical talents, often overlooked - have LOVED Johnny Rivers since the 70's!

  14. c.... ....

    He truly can cover anything and do it well. I mean. Hank Williams? Really?

  15. c.... ....

    I found it and enjoyed it.

  16. L.... C....

    Great! I posted a different version of You Win Again that Johnny recorded thirty years before this. I can't add the link here, but just search for it in my channel leoconde.

  17. c.... ....

    That would be interesting.

  18. c.... ....

    That's good.

  19. c.... ....

    It's always a good idea to give a song a second listen. Some songs definitely grow on you. It's interesting that JR based his version on JLL's rather than HW Sr's.

  20. c.... ....

    I thought that I had offended you.

  21. c.... ....

    It was meant as a compliment, B. You know a great deal about J.R.

  22. r.... ....

    Velmi krásné... nádherná romantika a lyrika, krásná melodie, aranžmá, sametový hlas...moc se mi to líbí...děkuji a pozdravy!!!!!
