Lyrics:
Don't look so sad
I know it's over
But life goes on
And this world keeps on turning, yeah
Let's just be glad
We have this time to spend together
There is no need
To watch the bridges that we're burning
Lay your head (lay your head)
On my pillow, sweet baby
Hold your warm (and tender body) and tender body
Close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops
Blowin' softly against my window
Oh, late at night
(Make believe) make believe you love me
(Make believe) one more time
For the good times
For the good times
I'll get along
And I'm sure you'll find another
But baby, please remember
I'll be here (I'll be here)
I'm gonna stay right here
And if you should ever find you need me, yeah
Don't say a word about tomorrow
Ahh, forever and ever and ever and ever
There'll be time enough for severance, when you leave me
Ehehehehe
For the good times, oh yeah
For the good times
Lay your head (lay your head)
On my pillow
Oh, this is one time girl (one time)
Hold your warm (and tender body) and tender body
Close to mine ehehehehe
Oh baby, won't you
Hear that whisper, hear that whisper
Of the raindrops, of the raindrops
Blowin' softly, softly
Against my window
All ya gotta do is (make believe), all ya gotta do is
Make believe you love me (make believe)
One more time, for me baby
For the good times (hey baby)
For the good times
And here's what you ought to do
Lay your head on my pillow
I just wanna
(Hold your warm) hold your warm, hold your warm
(And tender body) and tender body
(Close to mine) close to mine
My uncle Blondie Calderon was Ray Price's band leader for many years before he passed away in 2000. I worked as a waiter for a short time in his restaurant in Del Rio, Texas (Memo's Restaurant). Radney Foster who is this kid's mentor used to come in to the restaurant occasionally when Radney was still pretty young, and I was their waiter a few times. This song brings back a lot of memories of those days when I was growing up. I'm not a huge fan of country music but I do like a lot of the old classic country and this kid is really good at that. Way to represent my hometown.
Yeehaw. We love this young fella. Radney's been playing our stage for years and we're super happy to be playing host to this next gen of songwriters... Thank you for watching

I hope this kids has a concert in Utah or in Texas before he blows up and I cant afford to see him play. Its refreshing to see a young man with good manners an an old soul, kinda like Elvis. This generation desperatly needs this type of Texas heart.

I listen to music on TH-cam while working without seeing the video's. When he started singing, I had to look at the video. Was surprised to see a such a young person with such a unique voice. Love his rendition of this song!
In my opinion William Beckmann is one of the best in country music right now. Absolutely, love his sound.
I swear, my favorite singer now and for many years to come!!! Come back to Lockhart, TX!!!
He's amazing
What a voice, he’s completely comfortable in his skin.
William, you were fabulous at the JJW Memorial Weekend and here - this song has always been a favorite of mine and Ray Price’s was my favorite version, too - until you, sweetie. I hope to see you again but love it that I have been so blessed twice. Good times, indeed!
Thanks for listening
Oh wow, fantastic. This gave me chills! It makes me think of listening to the old country when I was a kid that my dad listened to. I'm going to share this with him-he'll love it!
Man you are awesome
incredible
Wonderful, unique voice singing traditional country music. Love it!
Omg... you are awesome!!
Yeah, we got a crush on this fella for sure. Can't wait to see him again!
I was there--you were awesome
we wish you were too...
Excellent!!!
Many thanks!
Amazing voice!! Did this song justice!
Play over and over❤️❤️
Beautiful rendition! Bravo!
Love this so much.
Love it...😘
Thanks for watching - be sure to subscribe for more!
Ray Price is my favorite version too.

Attempting to cover an iconic song and singer is simply impossible. Good intentions, but this is no comparison to Ray's amazing version. That's my one opinion. And in saying this, at least he's keeping it real country, my hat's off to him for that!!
well alright then.
I think Blondie would have approved your singing...
Voice is nice, but such a young man doesn't need to put so much emphasis on drinking. This is not a good example for young or old. Being drunk isn't necessarily an image for country music anymore.
Kris Kristofferson would like a word.
...yes,...I feel the same...concerning
These guys are in bars 5 nights a week performing, with people buying them drink after drink. And yes, it is still a staple of real country music.
But hey, there’s always Florida-Georgia Line or Lady A if you want to believe Country artists don’t drink (hint: even they do, their publicists just have those type of bands lie about it).
lol. we liked the original lady a. th-cam.com/video/PjdeazVWVro/w-d-xo.html
