Price hit Nashville in the early 1950s, rooming for a short time with Hank Williams. When Williams died, Price took over Williams' band, the Drifting Cowboys, and had minor success. He was the first artist to have a hit with "Release Me" (1953), a song made famous by Engelbert Humperdinck in 1967. However, Price became one of the stalwarts of the grinding, honky tonk music that became even more popular in the early 1950s with such singers as Hank Williams, Lefty Frizzell, Webb Pierce and others. Price developed the famous "Ray Price Shuffle Beat" that is heard on "Crazy Arms," which served as the beat for many honky-tonk classics since then.

I'll Keep On Loving You Lyrics

Ray Price

(Floyd Tillman)
If the world keeps on turning
As I'm sure it's bound to do
Then I'll keep on loving you
If the dawn comes tomorrow
And we know that it is true
Then I'll keep of loving you.
What the thing changes sky to fall
the dawn wouldn't come the world wouldn't stall
I wouldn't care as long as you're near
It wouldn't matter to me at all.
If the stars stay in heaven
And the moon stays in the blue
Then I'll keep of loving you.
--- Instrumental ---
If I ever should lose you
Then I know just what I'll do
I'll just keep on loving you
You are heaven to me dear
You are every dream come true
And I'll keep of loving you.
Life is so sweet when you are near
I couldn't do without you my dear
I love you so I want you to know
I think of you wherever I go.
I will always be faithful
And I'm sure that you will too
And I'll keep of loving you...
