Satin Sheets

Jan Howard · Bill and Jan Or Jan and Bill (w Bill Anderson) [De [1972]

(John Volinkaty)



(Both)

Satin sheets to lie on, satin pillows to cry on

And still you're not happy here with me

Big long Cadillacs, tailor-mades upon your back

And still you want me to set you free.



(Jan)

We've been through thick and thin together

Braved the fair and stormy weather

We've had all the hard times you and I

(Bill)

And now that I'm a big success you called today and you confessed

And told me things that make me want to die.



You told me there's another man who can give more than I can

And I've given everything that cash will buy

(Jan)

You can buy me a peaceful night with loving arms around me tight

And you're too busy to notice the hurt in my eyes.



(Both)

Satin sheets to lie on, satin pillows to cry on

And still you're not happy here with me

Big long Cadillacs, tailor-mades upon your back

And still you want me to set you free...
