If I could come back when I'll leave this world I'd still want to come back to you
Though you've never cared half as much as I
I pray that someday things would change
From here to eternity would seem just like a day
If I had your promise I know I'd find the way
If I could come back when I'll leave this world I'd still want to come back to you
[ steel ]
I've got my fingers crossed
I pray our love isn't lost
It all depends on you, honey
What have we gonna do?
Each time our fingers touch
You know, I love you so much
It all depends on you, honey
What have we gonna do?
I'll love you till I die
It would hurt me to see you cry
You're my every dream, my every scheme
Don't ever say goodbye
I've got my fingers crossed
I pray our love isn't lost
It all depends on you honey
What have we gonna do?
I'll love you till I die
It would hurt me to see you cry
You're my every dream, my every scheme
Don't ever say goodbye
I've got my fingers crossed
I pray our love isn't lost
It all depends on you honey
Yes, I keep falling back to you
What else can I do
I keep falling back to you
So many times, I've had you on my mind
It seems, I just can't leave the past behind
I know you've been untrue dear
But oh, what can I do?
For every time the sun goes down
I fall right back to you
Yes, I keep falling back to you
What else can I do
I keep falling back to you
I can't forget the past we knew
I can't forget the past we knew
So many times, I've had you on my mind
It seems, I just can't leave the past behind
I know you've been untrue dear
But oh, what can I do?
For every time the sun goes down
I fall right back to you
Yes, I keep falling back to you
What else can I do
I keep falling back to you
There's more pretty girls than one there's more pretty girls than one
Every town I ramble around there's more pretty girls than one
Well I am a rambling man I done roam this world around
I've always been a rounder boy since my girl turned me down
There's more pretty girls than one...
Now listen all you rounders let me tell you what you'd do
Don't fall in love with a pretty little girl unless you know she's true
There's more pretty girls than one...
There stands the glass that will ease all my pain
That will settle my brain, it's my first one today
There stands the glass that will hide all my tears
That will drown all my fear, brother I'm on my way
I'm wondering where you are tonight
I'm wondering if you are all right
I wonder if you think of me in my misery
There stands the glass, fill it up to the brim
Till my troubles grow dim, it's my first one today
I'm wondering where you are tonight
I'm wondering if you are all right
I wonder if you think of me in my misery
There stands the glass, fill it up to the brim
Honey bee loves the honey, chickadee loves the sky
Everybody loves somebody but no love have I, no love have I
Standing on the corner, lovers pass me by
How my heart is crying 'cause no love have I, no love have I
(Every night in my prayers I pray for some lost love to come my way)
Then we'll spend our lonely hours making love in an ivory tower
Lonely is the city when the moon lights up the sky
But what good is that moonlight if no love have I, no love have I
(Every night in my prayers I pray for some lost love to come my way)
Then we'll spend our lonely hours making love in an ivory tower
Lonely is the city when the moon lights up the sky
PAIN, BIG PAIN keeps right on hurting me you left me lonely as a boy can be
I'VE GOT TO smile so it don't show but everybody knows I'm wearing the smile of a clown
Laugh clown laugh clown I THINK that's what they say oh how long can I go on this way
Telling jokes all over town knowing all the while I'm wearing the smile of a clown
Sure I'm laughin' laughin' to keep from cryin' cryin'
But I'm just hidin' hidin' the hurt you left my darlin'
Why oh why must I go on this way you left me lonely only yesterday
I look in the mirror dear saw a face and a tear wearing the smile of a clown
Sure I'm laughin' laughin'...
Send me the pillow that you dream on don't you know that I still care for you
Send me the pillow that you dream on so darling I can dream on it too
Each night while I'm sleeping oh so lonely
I share your love in dreams that once were true
Send me the pillow that you dream on so darling I can dream on it too
[ steel ]
I've waited so long for you to write me but just a mem'ry's all that's left of you
The sands of gold whatever wait beside the sea
Like sand of gold I'll wait till you come back to me
You said your love was mine alone to have and hold
Our pledge of love is written in the sands of gold
And though I heard you say that you must sail away
You're in my heart I know that you'll return someday
The sands of gold...
[ guitar ]
And though I heard you say...
(Roses are red my love)
A long long time ago on graduation day
You handed me your book I signed this way
Roses are red my love violets are blue
Sugar is sweet my love but not as sweet as you
We dated through school and when the big day came
I wrote into your book next to my name
Roses are red my love...
Is that your little girl she looks a lot like you
Some day some boy will write in her book too
Roses are red my love...
Then I went far away and you found someone new
I read your letter dear and I wrote back to you
Roses are red my love violets are blue
I left you and left you broken hearted I left you and now I can't forget
I thought then that I could live without you forgive me and I'll make you happy yet
Forgive me for all the pain I caused you forgive me for unkind words I said
I thought once that I could live without you I'm paying with the broken heart instead
[ steel - fiddle ]
I wish I had never made you blue sweetheart I wish I could live it over now
I know now that I can't live without you forgive me and I'll make it up somehow
Had our number changed today although I hated to
But each time the phone would ring they'd want to speak to you
And it hurts to tell them you're not here with me
Maybe now oh telephone will let me be
It's not in the book so now you'd better write it down
Just in case your love for me should ever come around
You might want to call and break the news to me just call Lonesome 7-7203
[ piano ]
Oh I keep the telephone beside me all the time
Hoping you might want to call and say you're changed your mind
If you do then darling you know where I'll be I'm at Lonesome 7-7203
You're the only one I'm giving out new number to
So now if the telephone should ring I'll know it's you
You're not mine anymore
But I'm still paying for
Just a note from you to say
You've changed your mind
Now I know you say we're through
But I'm still in love with you
And it's my fault
That you're not mine anymore
If you don't ever change your mind
To take me back again
I hope you meet someone that's true
And fall in love with him
Since the day you said we're through
I'm even more in love with you
And it's my fault
That you're not mine anymore
You're not mine anymore
I once lost my heart and I swear that
We parted that I'd never lose it again
She made me so blue with a love so untrue
A love I had no chance to win
Then you came along, now my heart sings a song
It haven't been singing since then
You're all that I think of you, be my true love
You make me live again
If I haven't told you that each time I hold you
My heart goes into a spin
I want you so bad, it's driving me mad
'Cause you make me live again
You make my life lighter and as I hold you tighter
I hope this is one heart I win
You're all that I think of, you be my true love
Who do I think I am
What made me think that I could live without her who do I think I am
What made me think that she couldn't forget me who do I think I am
Why did I tell myself I was her one and only
I should have realized and end up alone and lonely
What made me think that she couldn't find another who do I think I am
[ piano ]
Why did I tell myself...
If the back door could talk just long enough to tell me
Who goes out just when I come in
Well she says I must be dreaming yet I know that she's been scheming
And I wonder who goes out when I come in
If I could see inside those wall without goin' in
And believe the one who's with her now is just another friend
I don't care I know his name after all he's not to blame
Still I wonder who goes out when I come in
[ piano ]
Your good for nothing heart won't ever let to start
Loving someone who would forever be true
You don't know what you want it's plain and you're driving me insane
As you go cheating cheating cheating round on me
Your good for nothing heart I can't have any part
Now your love it seems cause I'm never in your dreams
Oh but someday you're gonna cry you'll be lonely by and by
You won't think you're smart then with your good for nothing heart
[ fiddle - piano ]
Waitin' a lifetime for someone to love someone that I'd call mine
Waitin' a lifetime is not any fun I feel like I'm wastin' my time
Someone to miss someone to kiss who'd let me stay in their heart
Someone to hold when lights grow cold and say that we'd never part
Waitin' a lifetime and longin' for love there must be someone for me
Where in my lifetime can that someone be who's waiting for someone like me
[ fiddle ]
You're not gone really gone you'll be back I know you will
You're just taking a walk on the wild side of life
In my house are many heartaches loneliness is all around
Since you left me for the life of nights out on the town
I've got mem'ries by the dozen but I can't throw one away
Everything's just like you left it and that's how it's gonna stay
You're not gone really gone...
[ steel ]
Till the bright lights lose their glamour and the music of its charm
Until you tire of all the honky tonks that took you from my arms
This old house of many heartaches holds a love enough for two
And everything's just like you left it waiting just for you
If I see you tomorrow on some street in town pardon me if I don't say hello
I belong to another it wouldn't look so good
To know someone I'm not supposed to know
Just walk on by wait on the corner I love you but we're strangers when we meet
Just walk on by...
[ steel ]
In some hidden corner in a place outside of town
Tonight we'll try to say goodbye again
But I know it's not over I'll call tomorrow night I can't let you go so why pretend
Just walk on by...
A violet fell in love with a rose
And started it flashing from its head to its toe
Then one day the rose was kissed by the dew
A new love was born and the violet turned blue
Roses are red violets are blue
I'm sending red, red roses to you
If you care to send some flowers to me
Then send me some violets, I'm blue as can be
I wanted my love to bouquet with you
And just like the rose you've proven untrue
A flower that's wild they say has no home
And just like the violet I'm left all alone
Roses are red violets are blue
I'm sending red, red roses to you
If you care to send some flowers to me
Yes I know I've been untrue and I have hurt you through and through
But please have a mercy on this heart of mine
Take me back and try me one more time
If my darling you could see just what your leaving done to me
You'd know that love is still a tie that binds
Take me back and try me one more time
[ guitar ]
In my dreams I see your face it seems there's someone in my place
But does he know that you were once just mine
Take me back and try me one more time
If you'll just forgive me now I'll make it up to you somehow
(Feelin' tired and weary from my head down to my shoes
Feelin' tired and weary from my head down to my shoes
Got a low down feelin' truck driver's blues
Keep them wheels a rollin' I ain't got no time to lose
Keep them wheels a rollin' I ain't got no time to lose
Got a low down feelin' truck driver's blues)
Ride ride ride on into town there's a honky tonk gal a waitin'
And I've got troubles to drown
(Never did have nothin' I've got nothin' much to lose
Never did have nothin' I've got nothin' much to lose
Just a low down feelin' truck driver's blues)
Ride ride ride on into town...
I'll still have memories sweet memories of you
Sometimes I wonder now and then of all the things that might have been
Thinking of the things we used to do
What do words would have meant then will never mean the same again
I'll still have memories sweet memories of you
(Memories) of the past (dreams of things) that didn't last
I'll still have memories sweet memories of you
[ steel ]
I brought your mem'ry of the past from all the things that didn't last
A memory of love I thought was true
Regret some things I made that you always planned but never do
That's what brought memories sweet memories of you
There's a ramshackle shack in old Caroline it's callin' me back to the girl of mine
Those two brown eyes I'm longing to see oh the girl of my dreams she will always be
Those two brown eyes that sparkle with love came down to me from heaven above
If I could fly like a beautiful dove I'd fly to the arms of the one that I love
[ fiddle - steel ]
Your cheating past I knew when I fell in love with you
But I thought that I could help you change your ways
But memories in time keep burning on your mind
Sooner or later you're gonna fall back to the cheating kind
Yes I know I'm losing you and there's nothing I can do
I know I'm about to give you up someday
Cause somewhere down the line your heart will fall behind
When your past starts calling you'll start falling back to the cheating kind
[ steel - fiddle ]
Yes I know I'm losing you...
So used to loving you I can't believe we're through
Nobody else will do since we're apart
I tried so hard to find someone to ease my mind
But they're just not my kind so used to lovin' you
Darlin' if you ever change you may still share my name
Don't hang your head in shame forget those mistakes you've made
No one lives a perfect life so forget your foolish pride
And put your fears aside then come back to me
After the war was over I was coming home to you
I saw a rainbow at midnight out on the ocean blue
The stars in heaven were shining the moon gave its light from above
I saw your face in this rainbow it made me think of our love
[ piano ]
We'll build our home in the country and make all our dreams come true
There we will make a heaven sweetheart just for we two
Here we will live so happy and have a baby or two
We'll name them after this rainbow because it reminds me of you
After this life is over and our journey here is through
Please help me I'm falling in love with you
Close the door to temptation don't let me walk through
Turn away from me darling I'm begging you to
Please help me I'm falling in love with you
I belong to another whose arms have grown cold
But I promised forever to have and to hold
I can never be free dear but when I'm with you
I know that I'm losing the will to be true
Please help me I'm falling and that would be sin
Close the door to temptation don't let me walk in
For I shouldn't love you but darling I do
Please help me I'm falling in love with you
[ steel ]
I wonder what the power is that you hold over me
I never get to love you long just your memory
And I make a vow each time you leave that this will draw the line
Then you come back and just like that I'm falling one more time
One more time my lips will kiss you one more time my arms will hold you
But it won't be long until you're gone with a mem'ry left behind
And I just know that when you go I'll be lonely one more time
[ steel ]
Your nearness makes me weaken and I give in to you
And I'm doing all the things that I said I wouldn't do
And I make a vow each time you leave that this will draw the line
Then you come back and just like that I'm falling one more time
Everybody's going out and having fun
I'm a fool for staying home and having none
I can't get over how she set set me free oh lonesome me
A bad mistake I'm making by just hanging round
I know that I should have some fun and paint the town
A lovesick fool is blind and just can't see oh lonesome me
I'll bet she's not like me she's out and fancy free
Flirtin' with the boys with all her charms
But I still love her so and brother don't you know
I'd welcome her right back here in my arms
Well there must be some way I can lose these lonesome blues
Forget about the past and find somebody new
I've thought of everything from A to Z oh lonesome me
[ piano ]
No one those hours I miss you no one no one but me
No one those hours I need you no one but me
I miss you so much I need your loving touch
I still love you so why did I ever let you go
No one those hours I love you no one no one but me
[ steel ]
I miss you so much...
Castles are made high and mighty and oceans were made deep and wide
We were made for each other that's how I feel about my love for you
Up in the sky there is a rainbow that some people say has no end
Well this I don't know if true but there's no end of my love for you
Living each moment waiting for your touch
Praying each night you want me half as much
Vows that are made sometimes are broken and someone you trust can prove untrue
But I'll never be unfaithful for you can trust in my love for you
More and more, I'm forgetting the past
More and more, I'm living at last
Day by day, I'm losing my blues
More and more, I'm forgetting about you
You know how I tried keep you by my side
You know how I cried the day you said goodbye
Day by day, I'm losing my blues
More and more, I'm forgetting about you
But oh, how I tried keep you by my side
And oh, how I cried the day you said goodbye
Day by day, I'm losing my blues
More and more, I'm forgetting about you
Day by day, I'm losing my blues
You're my mem'ry No 1
I've got lots of golden memories of a million things I've said and done
But when I seperate them darling you're my mem'ry No 1
I've called lots of other sweethearts and I admit I've had some fun
But when I stop and think of true love you're my mem'ry No 1
Even fools sometimes get lonesome
And I guess that's what this fool has gone and done
For tonight I'm thinking of old mem'ries and you're my mem'ry No 1
[ piano ]
Loving you then losing you is more than I can stand
I knew we'd have some problem cause love's a crazy game
And loving you then losing you is driving me insane
Don't say that I'll forget you should you leave me behind
Cause loving you then losing you will make me lose my mind
I've spent so many nights alone more than I thought I could
But each time you'd come back to me just like a good girl should
So don't tell me it's over our love is no mistake
Cause loving you then losing you is more than I can take
[ piano ]
I've spent so many nights alone...
Oh the sun's gonna shine in my life once more love's gonna live here again
Things're gonna be the way they were before love's gonna live here again
Love's gonna live here love's gonna live here love's gonna live here again
No more loneliness only happiness love's gonna live here again
[ guitar - steel ]
Now I hear bells're ringing I hear birds're singing love's gonna live here again
I hear bees a humming and I know the days're coming
Love's gonna live here again
Love's gonna live here...
Love come to me let me live again
Blues stay away from me let my heart beat again
I'm not so strong that I can cry to be alone hurts me deep inside
I long to share a love I never known
I'd like to start my life anew try to forget what I've gone through
Oh how I need someone to call my own
Love come to me let me live again
Blues stay away from me let my heart beat again
Someone for my own is my plea love come to me
[ guitar ]
I'm needing one who'll talk with me I've gone to the wrong company
Though I knew those love affairs went right
I'm longing for a love that's true torn between the past I knew
If I lost your love oh how I'd cry I'd wish I could die if I lost your love
You are to me a sweet dream come true don't know what I'd do if I lost your love
I'm sure that my heart would break if you said
It's best that we'll part cause our love is dead
I live each day only for you don't know what I'd do if I lost your love
[ guitar ]
I just received your letter
That you wrote in deep despair
You say your heart is closed to me
And you no longer care
What can I do or say
To make you change your mind again
Oh, won't you open up your heart
And let forgiveness in
I'd give the world to hear you say
You love me as before
And that the happy yesterdays
Is ours to live once more
Let's live again the used to be
We were so happy then
Oh, won't you open up your heart
And let forgiveness in
I may pretend I never cry
To tell the truth I do
For sadness came with your goodbye
Are you unhappy too
For if it's true you care for me
To hide, it is a sin
Oh, won't you open up your heart
If you've got leavin' on your mind tell me now get it over
Hurt me now get it over if you've got leavin' on your mind
If there's a new love in your heart tell me now get it over
Hurt me now get it over if there's a new love in your heart
Don't leave me here in a world filled with dreams that might have been
Hurt me now get it over I may learn to love again
If you've got leavin' on your mind...
I'll live every day for you
I'll breath ever breath for you
And if I'm mean and make you blue
It's my way of loving you
If I say that you're untrue
And it breaks your heart in two
I can't help these things I do
It's my way of loving you
Try to understand my love look into my heart
Can't you see I'd want to die if we'd ever part
All my life I'll love you so there'll be times it may not show
That my love for you is true, it's my way of loving you
Try to understand my love look into my heart
Can't you see I'd want to die if we'd ever part
All my life I'll love you so there'll be times it may not show
When you're out with him where the lights are dim
Is my ring on your finger sweetheart
And when you're untrue with your somebody new
Is my ring on your finger sweetheart
Do you feel just right when he holds you tight
And you know that you still belong to me
Do you get a thrill from kisses you steal
Is my ring on your finger sweetheart
[ steel - fiddle ]
Is it wrong for loving you is it wrong for being true
Tell me darling tell me please dear is it wrong
Have I waited for so long has your love for me gone
Is it wrong is it wrong for loving you
Way down deep inside my heart you're the only love sweetheart
Yes the only true love I ever knew
But I ask myself inside no need telling myself lies
Is it wrong is it wrong for loving you
Is it wrong for loving you...
Invisible tears in my eyes incredible pain in my heart
Indestructable memories are passing in review
Impossible though things may get improbable I will forget
Indelible memories of sweet loveable you
You're back again so I'll let you in
Altough I'm only stealing pictures from the past
These arms are not real but somehow I feel
If I'll just close my eyes then maybe it will last
Invisible tears in my eyes...
He's in the jailhouse now he's in the jailhouse now
I told him once or twice to quit playin' cards and a shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now
Well I had a friend named Rambling Bob who used to steal gamble and rob
He thought he was the smartest guy in town
But I found out last Monday that Bob got locked up Sunday
They got him in the jailhouse way downtown
He's in the jailhouse now...
[ steel - fiddle ]
Now I went out last Tuesday I met a girl named Susie
I told her I was the swellest man around
We started to spend my money and she started to callin' me honey
We took in every honky tonk in town
Yeah I'm gonna change everything that holds a mem'ry of you oh yeah
I'm gonna start in the hall take the pictures off the wall and burn 'em
Move the chairs around take the window curtains down and burn 'em
Everything I see reminds me you were here
Yeah I'm gonna change everything that holds a mem'ry of you oh yeah
The candle of your set you gave me on the night of my birthday
The records that you bought the hi-fi we used to play
The decorating man will come and rearrange them
Yeah I'm gonna change everything that holds a mem'ry of you oh yeah
Take the carpet off the floor and throw it out the door it's filled with tears
Everything I find that brings you to my mind must disappear
Every night I dream I'll dream of someone new
Yeah I'm gonna change everything that holds a mem'ry of you
One of these days
Yes, I know I'm gonna find me a girl
A pretty little girl, a dolly
I can call my own
And that'll be the day
I'll be sittin' on the top of the world
Me and my girl then maybe, baby
I'll never have to be alone
I ain't never had a love affair
Nobody for my very own
The pages are empty in my little black book
I walk in the moon alone
One of these days
Yes, I know I'm gonna find me a girl
A pretty little girl then maybe, baby
I'll never have to be alone
One of these days the sun's gonna shine
Right through my front door
A pretty little girl is gonna walk about ten
I'll never be lonely no more
And that'll be the day
I'll sit on the top of the world
Me and my girl then maybe, baby
I thank my lucky stars for every day I spent with you
I thank my lucky stars because I found a girl so true
Many times I've seen of the girls I might have had
Watched them while they fall in love and watched it turn out bad
So when I count my blessings honey youre my number one
And when I count my heartaches thanks to you they're number none
So if I see I'm little bit too much in love that's true
I thank my lucky stars because I found a girl like you
(I thank my lucky stars for every day I spent with you
I thank my lucky stars because I found a girl so true)
At my door the leaves are falling the cold cold winds will come
Sweethearts walk by together and I still miss someone
I go out on wild party look for a little fun
But I find a darkened corner cause I still miss someone
Though I never got over those blue eyes I see them everywehere
I miss those arms that held me when all the love was there
Oh I wonder if she's sorry for leaving what we had begun
There's someone for me somewhere and I still miss someone
[ ac.guitar ]
I don't love you anymore not the way I did before
And since you've found someone new I think it's best
I don't cry and walk the floor I don't love you anymore
Trouble is I don't love you any less
I held you close to me one time kissed your lips and called you mine
Then another came and thrilled you more I guess
I cried as you walked out the door I don't love you anymore
Trouble is I don't love you any less
I don't love you anymore for I've got no more love to give
You drained my heart of all its love with every sweet caress
I keep saying o'er and o'er I don't love you anymore
Trouble is I don't love you any less
[ steel ]
Now I don't care if I'm not the first love you've known
Just so I'll be the last
Now I don't care if I'm not the first one you've kissed
Darling, I'll never ask
Yesterday's gone, just love me from now on
Be true to me, forget about the past
For I don't care if I'm not the first love you've known
Just so I'll be the last
Now I don't care if I'm not the first love you've known
Just so I'll be the last
Now I don't care if I'm not the first one you've kissed
Darling, I'll never ask
Yesterday's gone, just love me from now on
Forsaking all others in the past
For I don't care if I'm not the first love you've known
Well I ain't never, I ain't never
Seen nobody like you, no, no, no
Never have I ever seen nobody like you
You call me up and say to meet me at nine
I have to hurry, hurry, but I'm there on time
I walk right up and knock on your door
The landlord says she ain't a here, no more
I ain't never oh, darling seen nobody like you
Hoo, hoo, but I love you, yeah, I love you
I love you just the same
Well, you tell me sweet things that you don't mean
You've got me a living in a haunted dream
You make me do things, I don't wanna do
My friends say, oh Webb, what's wrong with you
I ain't never oh, darling seen nobody like you
Hoo, hoo, but I love you, yeah, I love you
I love you just the same
I love you just the same
I said I'd never do it again I swore my ways that would mend
But you cheated dear and that's a sin here I am I'm drunk again
I'm drunk because that you are gone at the bar I'm standing all alone
Rounding my sorrows deep within here I am I'm drunk again
[ steel ]
Now I don't like this life of mine drinking whiskey beer and wine
Dear I know this is the end here I am I'm drunk again
Here comes more tears to cry here comes more heartaches by
Here comes my baby back again
Here comes more misery here comes old memory here comes my baby back again
My arms are open wide to let more hurt inside here comes my baby back again
She's sorry once again once more I'll understand here comes my baby back again
[ steel ]
I've got the Georgia town blues I've got to thinkin' bout you
And I'm walkin' my feet right out of my shoes
Well my baby's gone and left me took away my love
And I can't get to Georgia on the Greyhound stuff
Well a honky tonk woman with the dreamy eyes broke my heart in two
When I found out it was only lie I wound up with the blues
I've got the Georgia town blues I've got to thinkin' bout you
If I don't get to Georgia I'll never lose these blues
[ piano - guitar ]
Well, I went to the river to water my horse
I couldn't find the river, just rode across
On that drifting shifting Texas sand
Texas sand, drifting Texas sand
Sandy land down by the Rio Grande
Well, sand in my coffee sand in my tea
When I die they're gonna bury me
But deep in that drifting shifting Texas sand
Texas sand, drifting Texas sand
Sandy land down by the Rio Grande
Well, I went to the river to water my horse
I couldn't find the river, just rode across
On that drifting shifting Texas sand
Well, sand in my coffee, sand in my tea
When I die they're gonna bury me
I wanna go home I wanna go home oh Lord I wanna go home
Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
And I dreamed about those cottonfields and home
I dreamed about my mother dear old papa sister and brother
I dreamed about that girl who's been waiting for so long
I wanna go home I wanna go home oh Lord I wanna go home
[ guitar ]
Homefolks think I'm big in Detroit City
From the letters that I write they think I'm fine
But by day I make the cars by night I make the bars
If only they could read between the lines
Now you know I rode the freight train north to Detroit City
And after all these years I find I've just been wastin' my time
So I just think I'll take my foolish pride and put it on a Southbound freight and ride
Go on back to the loved ones the ones I left waiting so far behind
Now blue ain't the world for the way that I feel
And the storm's a brewing in this heart of mine
This ain't no crazy dream I know that it's real
You're someone else's love now you're not mine
Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new
For my yearning heart keeps saying you're not mine
My troubled mind knows soon to another you'll be wed
And that's why I'm lonely all the time
[ steel - fiddle ]
So please take the treasured dreams I have for you and me
And take all the love I've thought was mine
Someday my crazy arms may hold somebody new
But now I'm so lonely all the time
They were standing in the moonlight when he kissed his love goodbye
He had broken engagement and she asked the reason why
I have someone else my darling and she mean the world to me
That is why I'm asking of you dear leave me here and set me free
The she whispered oh so sadly as the tears they filled her eyes
And his heart was full of pity for he took her by surprise
[ guitar ]
If it's true you love another better dear than you love me
Dear I want you to be happy all forever set you free
Though you leave me for another I hope we'll meet again someday
I'm in a blue mood and you've caused it all
The night life is calling again it's plain to see the blues are stepping in
So long now I've waited for your call I'm in a blue mood and you've caused it all
Now I know you're seeing someone else but I love you inspite of my soul
Just couldn't resist I have to fall I'm in a blue mood and you've caused it all
The night lights to you again are lureing and darling you're the reason for my fall
Your kind of love was my undoing I'm in a blue mood and you've caused it all
[ fiddle - steel ]
Yes, I know why I want to cry, it's over you
And I'm painting the town feeling blue
Should you ever love one that's untrue?
Then you'll know why I want to cry, it's over you
Well, I tried you all over again
And you just smiled all over again
I should have known that you'd never be true
Yes, I know why I want to cry, it's over you
Yes, I know why I want to cry, it's over you
And I'm painting the town feeling blue
Should you ever love one that's untrue?
Then you'll know why I want to cry, it's over you
Well, tomorrow I'll be twice as blue
I'm so low I could die over you
Yes, I'm asking for heartaches anew
They say don't go on Wolverton Mountain if you're looking for a wife
Cause Clifton Clovers has a pretty young daughter
And he's mighty handy with a gun and a knife
Her tender lips are sweeter than honey and Wolverton Mountain protects her there
The bears and the birds tell Clifton Clovers if a stranger should wander there
All of my dreams are on Wolverton Mountain I want his daughter for my wife
I'll take my chances and climb that mountain
Though Clifton Clovers he may take my life
Her tender lips...
I'm gonna go up on Wolverton Mountain it's too lonesome down here below
It's just not right to hide his daughter from the one who loves her so
Her tender lips...
I don't care about Clifron Clovers I'm gonna climb up on his mountain
I'm gonna take the one I love I don't care about Clifron Clovers
(Whirlpool, whirlpool of love)
(Everyone says stay away from her door)
You'll end up with heartaches like you ain't before
But I'm lonesome for you in this world
That I call a whirlpool of love
(Nothing seems good for me when you're away)
If I'm sad or happy in the night time or day
It all depends on you, darling, you see
In this whirlpool of love
You brought me many heartaches before
But in your heart, dear, you know
(I am still waiting for you as before)
Soon I'll be knocking on your heart's door
One word from you will set me free
From this whirlpool of love
You brought me many heartaches before
But in your heart, dear, you know
(I am still waiting for you as before)
Soon I'll be knocking on your heart's door
One word from you will set me free
From this whirlpool of love
Too long you waited too long to come home and your lover don't need you anymore
Too long you waited so long to come home so don't knock upon my door anymore
Well you say you stayed out late swinging on that garden gate
Too long you waited too long to come home so your lover don't need you anymore
[ steel - piano ]
Too long you waited too long...
Oh boy that's where my money goes
I've got a gal in Monroeville she won't dance but her sister will
Oh boy that's where my money goes
And I've got a gal down far away she won't swing but the show will sway
Oh boy that's where my money goes
Work my fingers to the bone so I can take more dollars gome
Workin' over time at the mill turn the pay for my baby's bills
My girl wears fancy clothes red tall shoes and nylon hose
Oh boy that's where my money goes
[ guitar - piano ]
My gal drives a limousine and you know who buys gasoline
Oh boy that's where my money goes
My gal lives like a movie star pink champaigne and caviar
Oh boy that's where my money goes
Bargan basement sells color bill collectors at my door
Working over time at the mill tryin' to pay for my baby's bills
My girl wears fancy clothes red tall shoes and rolldown hose
Oh boy that's where my money goes
Take that night train to Memphis take that night train to Memphis
And when you arrive at the station
I'll be right there to meet you I'll be right there to greet you
So don't turn down my invitation
Hallelujah hallelujah I'll be shoutin' hallelujah all the day
Oh we'll have a jubilee down in Memphis Tennessee
And shout hallelujah all the day
[ ac.guitar ]
Take that night train to Memphis take that night train to Memphis
You know that I'm longing to see you
Leave the 3-50-7 arive at eleven shout hallelujah all the way
Hallelujah hallelujah...
[ ac.guitar ]
Take that night train to Memphis take that night train to Memphis
Engineer pull a trottle open
Keep that engine stack a smokin' I'm not kiddin' I'm not jokin'
Soon I'll be with my girl I'm a hopin'
Hallelujah hallelujah...
Well a little bitty tear let me down spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not to make a frown oh but a little bitty tear let me down
When you said you were leaving tomorrow that today was our last day
I said there'd be no sorrow that I'd laugh when you walked away
But a little bitty tear let me down...
I said I'd laugh when you left me full of funny as you went out the door
That I'd have another was a waiting I'd wave goodbye as you go
But a little bitty tear let me down...
[ steel ]
Everything went out like I planned it and I really put on quite a show
In my heart I felt I could stand it till you walked with your grip through the door
Then a little bitty tear let me down...
Funny how life can slip away before you know what's happened it's come and gone
Oh you always think there'll be another day
But before you know it life's gone and slipped away
Ask the lonely man whose hair is filled with grey
If he can count the hearts he's broken in his days
I'll bet he'll bow his head and softly say
Son before you know it life's gone and slipped away
[ guitar ]
I know a lady who lived her life at play
And I remember when she was so young and gay
But now alone she cries for yesterday
Before she knew it life has gone and slipped away
It's been so long since we said goodbye
I guess that's the reason why I sit and cry
I miss you, baby, every day and night
It's been so long since I held you tight
Everything's different since you went away
I get so lonely every night and day
I can't help feeling that you ought to know
I love you baby and I miss you so
Nothin' ever seems the same
My sunshine has turned to rain
Every time I hear your name
My heart becomes a burnin' flame
It's been so long since we said goodbye
I guess that's the reason why I sit and cry
I miss you, baby, every day and night
It's been so long since I held you tight
It's been so long since we said goodbye
I guess that's the reason why I sit and cry
I miss you, baby, every day and night
It's been so long since I held you tight
Everything's different since you went away
I get so lonely every night and day
I can't help feeling that you ought to know
I love you, baby and I miss you so
Nothin' ever seems the same
My sunshine has turned to rain
Every time I hear your name
My heart becomes a burnin' flame
It's been so long since we said goodbye
I guess that's the reason why I sit and cry
I miss you, baby, every day and night
If you were me and I were you
And I should do the things you do
Would you still love
The way I keep on lovin' you
Of all the times you've been untrue
If I should be the same by you
Just tell me now what would you do
If you were me and I were you
Someday my love may grow cold
Then I'll love you no more I know
Think of all the unkind things
You said and done
But I still love you even though
Your love for me you'll never show
Just tell me now what would you do
If you were me and I were you
If you were me and I were you
And I should do the things you do
Would you still love
The way I keep on lovin' you
Of all the times you've been untrue
If I should be the same by you
Just tell me now what would you do
You're back in town again spreadin' talk around
That I'm still in love with you though you let me down
I hate to admit it but I guess the talk is true
Or else you couldn't make my heart ache the way you do
I've got a new heartache about an old sweetheart that left me for somebody new
I've got a new heartache about an old sweetheart and that's why I'm feeling so blue
[ steel ]
Why did you turn up again I was doing fine
I'd found another sweetheart to drive you from my mind
I thought that I'd forgotten you but I know that it's not true
Or else you couldn't make my heart ache the way you do
When I fell in love with you
Well, that's what I wanted to do
But if you can't be true
I'm gonna fall out of love with you
Dear, you've cheated and lied
Many long nights I cried
But what good does it do
I'm gonna fall out of love with you
Is that what you want me to do
Fall out of love with you?
A few more days, you don't change your ways
I'm fallin' out of love with you
You're making a fool of me
These things that I just can't see
The best thing for me to do
Is to fall out of love with you
Oh, how I tried to plead
I begged you on my knees
There's nothing left to do
I'm gonna fall out of love with you
Is that what you want me to do
Fall out of love with you?
A few more days, you don't change your ways
We're trav'ling down two different roads in world so far apart
You want me yet there's something else before me in your heart
You're wanting me to change my life the way you're living yours
But I can't change, I see no way you wanted me before
If you don't want me like I am then please don't pity me
If you can't change a little bit then why not set me free
If we can't live together dear it's best we live apart
You'll go your way and I'll go mine, we'll both make brand new start
There's nothing I can say, it seems we'll never get along
With you believing like you do you to say I live so wrong
But I can't change my way of life, I've lived it much too long
You'll have to take me like I am or I'll go on alone
So either say you want my love or take the way you live
Remember though before you get you gotta learn to give
So if it change my life or go then go it's gonna be
I wonder if you'll be the tie
To make me wanna cry each night
I'll never know unless we make a start
Why should I be afraid to try?
You'll either make me laugh or cry
I've got to know, I owe it to my heart
Will you walk in my heart today?
Then tomorrow run away
And in our love without a chance to start
If I should win or I should lose
It's up to you for I can't choose
I've got to know, I owe it to my heart
I owe it to my heart
To find the happiness that can't be mine
And you're the best way I know how to start
Will your kisses last like gold
Or all at once will they grow cold?
I've got to know, I owe it to my heart
Will you walk in my heart today?
Then tomorrow run away
And in our love without a chance to start
If I should win or I should lose
It's up to you for I can't choose
HOW COME YOUR DOG DON'T BITE NOBODY BUT ME
WITH MEL TILLIS
Writer Webb Pierce
Well you tell me that you love me you make me feel so good
But I don't feel that you're treating me the best way that you could
Well I gave you all my money then you tell me to come around
But all that's waiting for me at your door is your overgrown bloodhound
If you love me baby there's just one thing I can see
How come your dog don't bite nobody but me
Well he never bites the postman he licks the milkman's hand
But every time I come around he thinks I'm the booger man
You say you need my loving but I can't believe it's true
Or else you wouldn't let that dog molest me the way you do
Well if you love me baby there's just one thing I can see
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's coming on
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on
Papa writes to Johnny, but Johnny can't come home
Johnny can't come home, no, Johnny can't come home
Papa writes to Johnny, but Johnny can't come home
'Cause he's been on the chain gang too long
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's coming on
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on
High sheriff and police riding after me
Riding after me, yeah, they're coming after me
High sheriff and police riding after me
And I feel like I've gotta travel on
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's coming on
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on
I wanna see my honey, wanna see her bad
Wanna see her bad, yeah, wanna see her bad
Wanna see my honey, wanna see her bad
She's the best girl this poor boy ever had
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone, yes, winter's coming on
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on
She's just a fallen angel and I'm the fool who made her fall
Last night I saw an angel the one I once called mine
The hand that wore my wedding band held a glass of wine
I took her love for granted I wronged her night and day
I drove my angel from me and now she's gone astray
She's just a fallen angel but I don't blame her for it all
She's just a fallen angel and I'm the fool who made her fall
[ steel ]
So many times she told me she couldn't take me much more
So many times I laughed at her and walked right out the door
I wasn't worthy of her and now my angel's gone
The devil took her from me and claimed her for his own
Don't let me cross over love's cheating line
I'm tempted my darling to steal you away
Don't let me cross over stay out of my way
You know that I love you and I'm not the stealing kind
But I'm forced with heartaches at love's cheating line
Don't let me cross over love's cheating line
You belong to another and you'll never be mine
I know one step closer would be heaven divine
Don't let me cross over love's cheating line
[ steel ]
I've tried to forget you but what else can I do
When your eyes keep saying that you love me too
I know if I lose you not a dream will I have left
I don't want to cheat dear but I can't help myself

Oop-scooby-dooby-lena, go-gal-go
bop-a-lena, bop-a-lena, she's my gal
Oh, bop-a-lena, bop-a-lena, yeah she's my gal
She's my gal and I love her so
Oop-scooby-dooby-lena, go-gal-go
Well the school bells are ringin', everybody went out
Goin' to the shag, gonna shake it all about
Bop-a-lena lookin' like a rose in the wild
Man I dig that freek juvenile
When she gets a-goin' she's a real cool chick
She do the bop like a pogostick
Bop-a-lena, bop-a-lena, she's my gal
Oh bop-a-lena, bop-a-lena, yeah she's my gal
She's my gal and I love her so
Oop-scooby-dooby-lena, go-gal-go
I got my pattern-leather shoes on my hounddog feet

Look at her go on a camelwalk
Bop-a-lena, bop-a-lena, she's my gal
Oh bop-a-lena, bop-a-lena, yeah she's my gal
She's my gal and I love her so
You didn't know I wasn't free when you fell in love with me
And with all your young heart you learned to care
It brought you shame and disgrace, the world has tumbled in your place
Because they call our love a back street affair
They say you wrecked my home, I'm a husband that's gone wrong
They don't know the sorrow that we've had to bear
For the one that I'm tied to was the first to be untrue
And yet they call our love a back street affair
We have each other now, that's all that matters anyhow
Why the judgment of gossip's never fair
We'll just be brave and strong, then someday they'll see they're wrong
So let them call our love a back street affair
We'll be free to love someday when all the talk has died away
And the happiness we've hoped for then we'll share
I'll climb a mountain high and the world will hear me cry
Are you sincere when you say I love you are you sincere when you say I'll be true
Do you mean every word that my ears have heard
I'd like to know which way to go will our love grow are you sincere
[ guitar ]
Are you sincere when you say you miss me
Are you sincere every time you kiss me
And are you really mine every day all the time
My story begins
Where most stories end
After the boy gets the girl
It didn't work out for me
And I'm blue as I can be
It's the mighty lonesome old world
Who was a fool that said
"There's blues skies ahead
After the boy gets the girl?"
The only blues I've seen
Is the blues from broken dreams
It's the mighty lonesome old world
I think I'll fall back again
To where my heartache began
Back when your love for me was true
But time moves along
Carryin' not who's right or wrong
After the boy gets the girl
A love once sweet and true
Is the no love prove untrue
It's the mighty lonesome old world
I think I'll fall back again
To where my heartache began
Back when your love for me was true
But time moves along
Carryin' not who's right or wrong
After the boy gets the girl
A love once sweet and true
Is the no love prove untrue
I remember the first time I dated you
I was ready and willing to give my heart to you
I was ready to go anywhere with you but I wasn't ready the day I lost you
I was ready to buy a ring for you I was ready and willing to spend my life with you
I was ready to go all the way with you but I wasn't ready the day I lost you
Someone came along that you loved better
Just when I thought I had your love forever
I was ready from the first time I dated you
But I wasn't ready the day I lost you
[ steel ]
I'm walking the dog and I'm never blue
I'm walking the dog, I ain't thinkin' bout you
I don't need no one to tie me down
I'm walking the dog and I'm paintin' the town
Such an easy life, I never knew
Until the day that I left you
Well, I'm a carefree lad that seen the light
I'm walking the dog all the day and all night
Well, I'm full of strength, I just can't grow old
I got a one track mind so I've been told
But I'm fancy free, I don't worry know how
And I'm walking the dog all the law allow
Such an easy life, I never knew
I can't believe it's really true
Well, I'm a carefree lad that seen the light
Wondering, wondering
Who's kissing you
Wondering, wondering
If you're wondering too
Every hour through the day
I pray every night
To the good Lord above
To send back to me
The one I really love
Wondering, wondering
Who's kissing you
Wondering, wondering
If you're wondering too
Every hour through the day
Since you been away
I keep wondering, yes, wondering
If you're wondering too
Since you been away
I keep wondering, yes, wondering
If you're wondering too
I pray every night
To the good Lord above
To send back to me
The one I really love
Wondering, wondering
Who's kissing you
Wondering, wondering
If you're wondering too
Every hour through the day
Since you been away
I keep wondering, yes, wondering
Now honey, you just can't be true
And it seems there's nothing I can do
My heart tells me that you're a roving kind
Well, your heart starts beatin' more and more
And every good looking guy you just adore
Well, I love you, dear, but you just can't be true
You wanna play the field and lead the happy life
Well, I'd thought I worry and I care inside
Then settle this thing and say we're through
'Cause honey, baby, you just can't be true
Now honey, you just can't be true
And it seems there's nothing I can do
My heart tells me that you're a roving kind
Well, your heart starts beatin' more and more
And every good looking guy you just adore
I'd forgive you but what good would it do
One can't make up though our love it takes two
Oh you can't keep up a home with the heart that once do wrong
I'd forgive you but what good would it do
I'd come back dear but what good would it do
We would have those same old fights to go through
And as much rather be dead than to hear those words you said
I'd forgive you but what good would it do
[ steel - piano ]
I still love you but what good will it do after all I can't tell you what to do
We are formed of certain wish dear and that's the way we stay
I'd forgive you but what good would it do
I could blame you but what good would it do
One can't make up though our love it takes two
Oh you can't keep up a home with the heart that once do wrong
Welcome to my world won't you come on in miracles I guess happen now and then
Step into my heart leave your cares behind
Welcome to my world built with you in mind
Knock and the door will open seek and you will find
Ask and you'll be given the key to this world of mine
I'll be waiting here with my arms unfurled waiting just for you welcome to my world
[ piano ]
I've heard the sayin' all my life that true love never dies
I never could see how this could be
Since I left you my wounded heart keep telling me I'm wrong
Go back and try true lover never dies
My foolish pride won't let my heart overpass my stubborn mind
My heart keeps saying please go back don't run away and hide
For you'll face so many bitter years alone and then you'll cry
Can't you be alive true love never dies
[ steel - fiddle - piano ]
Anytime you need me I'll come running back to you
Even though you left me I'll hide my cry to be with you
I throw back my head just to hold back my tears
For I'll never forget those wonderful years
I'll never forget those wonderful years
(Should you meet someone to tell you you were right for leaving me
Tears don't keep me waiting I'll tell you to our eternity)
Yes I throw back my head...
(I throw back my head just to hold back my tears)
I'll never forget those wonderful years
A night with no moonlight, a day with no sun
A plane with no pilot, a watch that won't run
A tree with no branches, a rose with no dew
A boy with no sweetheart, that's me without you
A train with no whistle, a car with no gas
A well with no water, a show with no cast
A love with no future, a sky with no blue
A boy with no sweetheart, that's me without you
A bank with no money, a top that won't spin
A book with no story, a love I can't win
A chair with no bottom, a rig with no crew
A song with no music, that's me without you
A train with no whistle, a car with no gas
A well with no water, a show with no cast
A court with no jury, a church with no pew
Well a long time ago a little girl loved a boy
And it filled her heart with so much joy
One day he left her didn't tell her goodbye
Broke the little girl's heart and made the poor little girl cry
And the rose was born from the tears that fell
All heaven cried with her that's the story they tell
When you see a rainbow after a storm
You know a love has died a little girl cried and a rose's been born
(And a rose was born)
Well time moved along a little boy met a girl
And she captured his heart and set him in a whirl
One day she left him didn't tell him goodbye
Broke the little boy's heart and made the poor little boy cry
But a thorn was born from the tears he shed
And down through the ages to the rose has been wed
And just a reminder a sign meant to worn
A little boy lied a little boy cried and a thorn was born
(And a thorn was born)
That's a a story of a rose and a thorn that's a a story of a rose and a thorn
All your poison love has stained the life's blood in my heart and soul, dear
And I know my life will never be the same
All my pleas and prayers have been in vain for you and you alone, dear
And you know that you are guilty of a shame
Into each life a love is born for one and one alone, dear
The love I chose was surely not for me
But still my heart cries out for you and you alone, my darling
And my better judgment tells me to say no
All your poison love has stained the life's blood in my heart and soul, dear
And I know my life will never be the same
All my pleas and prayers have been in vain for you and you alone, dear
You were mine for just a while
Now you're puttin' on the style
And you've never once looked back
At your home across the track
You're the gossip of the town
But my heart can still be found
Where you tossed it on the ground
Pick me up on your way down
Pick me up on your way down
When you're blue and all alone
When their glamor starts to bore you
Come on back where you belong
You may be their pride and joy
But they'll find another toy
Then they'll take away your crown
Pick me up on your way down
They have changed your attitude
Made you haughty and so rude
Your new friends can take the blame
For underneath you're still the same
When you've learned these things are true
I'll be waitin' here for you
As you tumble to the ground
Pick me up on your way down
I must say that I don't care, hold my head up in the air
Even tell my friends I'm glad that you don't call
Even when the day is through, my heartaches start anew
And that's when I miss you most of all
And my arms keep reaching for you
My eyes keep searching for you
My lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to you
No matter how much I pretend, I wish I had you back again
For nothing else means half as much as you
My world just seemed to die the day you said goodbye
And I can't forget no matter what I do
And my arms keep reaching for you
My eyes keep searching for you
My lips keep calling for you
Sometimes I cry when you don't call
I'm beginnin' to think you don't love me at all
But you are still my, baby
I want the whole world to know
I just love, love, love, love, love you, love you so
Friends are tryin' to tell me
That I'm just a fool
Your love don't mean a thing
But I keep hopin' someday
If you'll see same things my way
You'll make the weddin' bells ring
Then I'll have you to keep me gay
We'll be alone both night and day
So tell everybody
I want the whole world to know
I just love, love, love, love, love you, love you so
Life's just too short to fuss and fight
If you'll trust in me, well, I'll treat you right
So tell everybody
I want the whole world to know
I just love, love, love, love, love you, love you so
Friends are tryin' to tell me
That I'm just a fool
Your love don't mean a thing
But I keep hopin' someday
If you'll see same things my way
You'll make the weddin' bells ring
Then I'll have you to keep me gay
We'll be alone both night and day
So tell everybody
I want the whole world to know
I just love, love, love, love, love you, love you so
I've got a sad sad story friend that I don't like to tell
I had a home and family when they locked me in this cell
Well I've been here for eighteen years that's a long long time I know
But time don't mean a thing to me cause I've got life to go
Well I went one night where the lights were bright just to see what I could see
I met up with an old friend who just thought the world of me
He brought me drinks and he took me to every honky tonk in town
The words were said and now he's dead I just had to bring him down
[ fiddle - guitar ]
Well it's been a long long time now since I've heard from my wife
I guess I'll be there with her yet if I hadn't used the knife
Well I'll bet that little girl of mine don't realize or know
Her daddy's been here eighteen years and still got life to go
Well I'll bet there's not one man outside that's spent this long in jail
I'll be here in this prison till my body's just a shell
No I can't be free to go and see the ones that I love so
I've been here for eighteen years and I still got life to go
Don't you think I've cried enough swallowed all my pride enough
Don't you think I've tried enough let me live a little
Haven't I been fool enough who that cared for you enough
Haven't I been true enough let me live a little
In a world away from you there's no life for me
Like this from day to day all those mem'ries that you left me
Open up your arms again let's be sweethearts not just friends
Won't you let forgiveness in let me live a little
In a world away from you...
If I was free from you my darling
I would start my life a new
We've been tied down, oh so long dear
I no longer can be true
Now I know that I should tell you
It would be the thing to do
But I haven't got the heart to say
I'm not in love with you
Just suppose and I should leave you
Take another for my own
Just suppose that I forsake you
Break my vows and leave you alone
Well, I'm ashamed down deep inside
That I have ever been untrue
But I haven't got the heart to say
