SILENT PARTNERS
written by Bobby Braddock
performed by Waylon Jennings
Verse 1:
He st[E]ands in the doorway,his hands upon his hips
She stands by the jukebox,a sweet smile on her lips
He slowly walks up to her,she reaches out for him
It's almost like some magnet is pulling both of them
Then he s[B]ays...
And she s[A]ays...
Chorus:
Si[E]lent partners,they don't say a word
She is the adjective and he is the verb
They sp[A]eak with their bodies and they talk with their eyes
They don't make no pro[B]mises so they don't tell no l[A]ies
Silent part[E]ners
Silent partners
Verse 2:
Late[E]r in their love-nest at half-past ecstasy
They cling to each other and lie there silently
She would like to tell him what she feels in her heart
And he would like to bare his soul
But don't know where to start
So he s[B]ays...
And she s[A]ays...
Chorus.
Chorus (last half of it).
