Pattie Page- Cross Over the Bridge

I HAVE FINALLY UPLOADED A RECORD!!! Geez I've been Busy! This is off of my Collector's edition of the greatest hits of the 50's and 60's so here is from 1954!


If you're a guy that's had a gal in each and every port
And you've forgot the rules of love that life has always taught
And if you broke as many hearts as ripples in a stream
Well, brother, here's the only way that you can be redeemed

CHORUS
Cross over the bridge, cross over the bridge
Change your reckless way o'livin', cross over the bridge
Leave you fickle past behind you and true romance will find you
Brother, cross over the bridge

If you have built a boat to take you to the greener side
And if that boat is built of ev'ry lie you ever lied
You'll never reach the Promised Land of love, I guarantee
'cause lies cannot hold water and you'll sink into the sea

CHORUS

I know it isn't easy to resist temptation's call
But think of how your broken heart will hurt you when you fall
'cause some day you will find that you are hopelessly in love
And she'll belong to someone else as sure as stars above

CHORUS

Cross over the bridge
Cross over the bridge
Cross over the bridge
FADE
Cross over the bridge

1954...I was 10 years old, but clearly remember a teenage neighbor named Nancy playing this record very, very loudly and very, very frequently. Time and time again my mother came dangerously close to calling that neighbor's mother to beg her to play a DIFFERENT song...."Don't Let the Stars Get In Your Eyes"..."Glow Worm"..."You Belong To Me"...ANYTHING for variety's sake. I hear this song and laugh while picturing Mom rolling in her grave as I sit here and type.

"Oh, not this song AGAIN!"
