Question
I only know one line from this song, I would like to know the title and artist if possible: the line says 'you walk by and you shake that thang, and you know I'm not that strong...', and the last line is '...and leave my heart alone?'

Answer
Hello Kim,

That's a song by the Oak Ridge Boys called "I Wish I Could Have Turned My Head"..........

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong.
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that strong,
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone.

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong.
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that strong,
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone.

The first time I laid eyes on you, got caught up in your sway;
Thought I didn't have a chance and then you looked my way.
From the longin' to the lovin', girl, we've made it all the way,
But for all the hunger in my eyes my heart has had to pay.

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong.

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone.

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong.
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that strong,
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone.

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong.
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that strong,
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone.

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong.
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that strong,
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone.

I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong.
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that strong,
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone.


Glad to be of help. Cheers........Mel.

I have been hooked on Country music since first hearing Jim Reeves in the late 50s. Two of the greatest nights of my life were seeing The Mavericks and Reba McEntire live in London. I am more at home with traditional Country music, but am happy to try and help with any questions relating to songs up to 2000. Please note that I DO NOT have the same knowledge about country music videos or singers private lives.
