JIM REEVES
"Dear Hearts And Gentle People"
(Sammy Fain / Bob Hilliard)

I love those dear hearts and gentle people
Who live in my home town
I love those dear hearts and gentle people
Who never ever let me down.

They read the good book from Friday 'til Monday
That's how the weekend goes
I've got a dream house I'll build there one day
With picket fence and ramblin' rose.

I feel so welcome each time that I return
'Til my happy heart's laughin' like a clown
I love those dear hearts and gentle people
Who live and love in my home town.

[Instrumental]

I love those dear hearts and gentle people
Who live in my home town
I love those dear hearts and gentle people
Who never ever let me down.

They read the good book from Friday 'til Monday
That's how the weekend goes
I've got a dream house I'll build there one day
With picket fence and ramblin' rose.

I feel so welcome each time that I return
'Til my happy heart's laughin' like a clown
I love those dear, dear hearts and those gentle people
Who never ever let you down...
