Almost - Billy Barrix (1957)

One of my favourite rockabilly songs from the 1950s

The delicious drivel that was 1950s Rockabilly 

(I guess you had to be there)

Almost - Billy Barrix

(Lyrics)

Well-well, almost you broke my heart in two
Well-well, almost you left me sad and blue
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Everybody cries the day you walk by
But I wouldn't believe it was you-ou

Well-well almost I went for your blue eyes
Well-well almost I went for your sweet lies
But everybody's talkin', I might as well be dead
My heart wouldn't listen to my head

Well-well, almost I went for your blue eyes
Well-well, almost I went for your sweet lies
But everybody's talkin', I might as well be dead
My heart wouldn't listen to my head

Well-well, almost I heard the church bells ring
Well-well, almost I heard the angels sing
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Then one day I found, that you were runnin' around
And now I believe everything

Well-well, almost I heard the church bells ring
Well-well, almost I heard the angels sing
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Then one day I found, that you were runnin' around
And now I believe everything
A-almost, almost, almost, almost
Baby almost...
