About The Song

“Loved ‘Em Every One” is a song written by Phil Sampson, and recorded by American country music artist T. G. Sheppard. It was released in March 1981 as the first single from the album I Love ‘Em All. The song was Sheppard’s seventh number one on the country chart. The single stayed at number one for one week and spent ten weeks on the country chart. “I Loved’ Em Every One” was also Sheppard’s only Top 40 single on Billboard’s Hot 100, reaching #37.

The song is a man’s tribute to all the women he had encountered through the years. The women apparently come from a variety of backgrounds and sizes (“big or little, or short or tall”), and have had as few as one meeting with him. The man then says he wishes he could have “kept them all.”

Lyrics

I’ve known some painted ladies that sparkled in the light
Country girls that loved the lovers moon
Some I never really knew, though I always wanted to
Some I only met once in a room
Some said they liked my smile, others of ’em stayed a while
While others left me on the run
This is the only way, only way I have to say
I loved ’em every one
Big, little or short or tall, wish I could’ve kept them all
I loved ’em every one
Like to thank ’em for their charms, holdin’ me in their arms
And I hope they had some fun
Here’s to the ladies in saloons and living rooms
Summer nights that lasted until dawn
Here’s to the memories, everyone’s a part of me
Oh, I loved ’em every one
Big, little or short or tall, wish I could’ve kept them all
I loved ’em every one
Like to thank ’em for their charms, holdin’ me in their arms
And I hope they had some fun
Big, little or short or tall, wish I could’ve kept them all
I loved ’em every one
Like to thank ’em for their charms, holdin’ me in their arms
And I hope they had some fun
