Merle Haggard

Merle Ronald Haggard (born April 6, 1937) is an American country music song writer, singer, guitarist, fiddler and instrumentalist. Along with Buck Owens, Haggard and his band The Strangers helped create the Bakersfield sound, which is characterized by the unique twang of Fender Telecaster and the unique mix with the traditional country steel guitar sound, new vocal harmony styles in which the words are minimal, and a rough edge not heard on the more polished Nashville Sound recordings of the same era. more »

I take a trip every evening 
Strolling down memory lane
I'm walkin' again those familiar paths 
Dreaming those dreams again
And I can always see my sweetheart 
Just as she used to be
Waiting for someone at the garden gate 
And I know that someone is me
Big brown eyes and pearly hair 
And you'd tell that's Mary
Rosy cheeks and ruby lips 
Can't you tell that's Mary?
Oft times in the evenings 
We'd go strolling
Hand in hand together 
Beneath the pepper tree
And I can feel her hand in mine 
As I sit alone tonight
Dreaming of the times I spent with Mary

Oft times in the evenings 
We'd go strolling
Hand in hand together 
Beneath the pepper tree
And I can feel her hand in mine 
As I sit alone tonight
Dreaming of the times I spent with Mary
Oh, gee, wouldn't it be wonderful
To open up the doors of the past
And live again as yesterday?
But you know no matter where I wander 
No matter where I roam
There'll always be a place in my heart, boys
For a girl away back, for a girl that 
I used to call Mary
