Artist/Band: Jean Shepard
Lyrics for Song: Promises Promises
Lyrics for Album: A Real Good Woman [1968]



(Wiley Smith - Carlyle Hughey)



You've promised you would be true to me

But we both know you could never be

You've been a puttin' me on since the day we met

Promises promises that's all I ever get, that's all I ever get.



Then you promised me a ring a weddin' gown and all them things

But I ain't seen no diamond yet

Promises promises that's all I ever get that's all I ever get

Promises promises that's all I get.



All you gave me since the day we met

You'll break my heart in two again I bet

Promises promises that's all I ever get

That's all I ever get.



--- Instrumental ---



And now you tell me you've gone away

You swear to me that this time you'll stay

I can't believe that I'm rid of you yet

Promises promises that's all I ever get, that's all I ever get.



Promises promises that's all I get

All you gave me since the day we met

You'll break my heart in two again I bet

Promises promises that's all I ever get

That's all I ever get.



All you gave me since the day we met

You'll break my heart in two again I bet

Promises promises that's all I ever get

That's all I ever get...
