Old Pictures

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Here's a little girl playin' dress-up Somewhere under all that lace Standin' in her momma's high-heeled shoes With a lipstick-covered face And here's a little boy on a pony He's a cowboy all the way He used to pull my hair and make me mad At the Saturday matinee Ah, who'd have thought that I'd lose my heart To the same little boy someday? [Chorus] Lookin' through my old pictures, faded photographs Some of them bring me close to tears, others make me laugh Old memories seem to come alive And open up the past again and let me dream inside [Verse 2] Here's brother with his very first automobile He thought he'd wash the paint away He took a job that took him West, he's doing very well We don't see much of brother these days Oh, tnd this is my favorite of my papa He's dressed up in his Sunday suit A wide-brimmed hat, a watch on a chain Well, I'm gonna tell you the truth It's a picture of a downright handsome man Caught in the prime of his youth [Chorus] Lookin' through my old pictures, faded photographs Some of them bring me close to tears, others make me laugh Old memories seem to come alive And open up the past again and let me dream inside Mm, they open up the past again and let me dream inside
