All the love you promised would be mine forever I would have bet my bottom dollar on Well it sure turned out to be a short forever Just once I turned my back and you were gone From now on all my friends are gonna be strangers I'm all through ever trusting a...

Just follow the stairway to this lonely world of mine You'll find me waiting here in Apartment No 9 Not so very long ago you walked away from me And after all the plans we made you decided to be free Loneliness surrounds me without your arms around me And...

I gave you up she's got you now and you're not mine no more Yet everytime I turn around you're knocking on my door Somehow I can't get through to you to her you now belong So be fair to her be faithful and be gone It's funny just how easily the tables turn...

(Please be quiet mind I want to go to sleep now) Every night and every day you go on the same old way Do you have to keep reminding me he's gone now And you're saying I was wrong but I knew that all along So be quiet mind we've stayed away too long now...

I feel I'm safe in sayin' you don't love me behind my back you've cheated constantly You're even grievin' now I've seen you run around behind my back right in front of me Don't need the crystal ball to see it's over don't need the ton of bricks to fall on me...

(Blue are the violets and red are the roses But black was that cold wind that took him away) We were so happy down here in the hollow Together put violets and roses to bed Then one day he left me and I couldn't follow Alone with blue violets and roses of...

Born to lose I've lived my life in vain every dream has only brought me pain All my life I've always been so blue born to lose and now I'm losing you Born to lose it seems so hard to bear how I long to always have you near You've grown tired and now you say...

Oh you chiseler you, I'm so in love with you; I can't explain the feelings that I feel. The only prints you'll leave behind on the sands of time will be the marks of a heel. When I gave you my hand my heart was in it; In your own way I know you love me,...

If you have never gone to where you don't belong come walk in my shoes a while If you don't know the pain of love that's all in vain come walk in my shoes a while I tried to live in your world and found I don't fit in Instead I've been neglected that's wher...

I put my little girl to bed with teardrops in her eyes All day I tried to comfort her and louder were her cries I left her there to say her prayers and stepped outside the door The prayer I heard was one I knew I'd never heard before Please have my mommy a...

Our little boy is four years old and quite a little man So we spell out the words we don't want him to understand Like T-O-Y or maybe S-U-R-P-R-I-S-E But the words we're hiding from him now tear the heart right out of me Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E becomes final today...

I didn't fail I gave a tryin' tryin' to hold you to me I let you go we'll say goodbye but don't leave the leaving up to me Our great love we had is over all we cherished is gone Nothing ever last forever it's time for moving along But I can't go my feet wo...

Down in the boondocks down in the boondocks People put me down cause that's the side of town I was born in I love him he loves me but I don't fit in his society Lord have mercy on the girl from down in the boondocks Every night I watch the lights from the...

Don't try to fly your way out of this Don't try to lie or I'll catch you in it Don't try to make me feel sorry for you Just because I'm blonde don't think I'm dumb 'Cause this dumb blond ain't nobody's fool When you left you thought I'd sit An' you thou...

The one you thought we'd never lose just stopped and walked away Remember how I always said he'd do just that someday He takes so much and then no more I try to make you see So eyes don't come crying to me I feel the teardrops trying to break through I wis...

Today's the day I always knew would come today I gave my liberty I'll miss that prison you release me from the ties are gone at last I'm free Free to choose the times and places where I cry Find new peace of mind at least I'm free to try Oh I'm free to liv...

I gotta get while the gettin's good honey get while the gettin's good Out of your life into a life where I'll be understood I need lots of tender look and your heart's made outta wood If I'm never gonna find peace of mind I gotta get while the gettin's good...

You're breaking up this home that has been ours To you it's just a prison without bars You don't know what but lasting tears will be Your freedom won't be quite exactly free Go now (go now) pay later when time decides how many tears you'll cry Go now (go...

You find so much wrong your love must be gone for thoughts are fickle when love is in You keep telling me to take it or leave those words are finally sinkin' in But how to break up without really crying I'll have to leave and that's for sure I know I'll be...

I once believed those mornful songs about way love is gone They say you simply can't forget but now I know they're wrong Forgetting is an easy thing for since you went away Already I've forgotten you a hundred times today Forgetting you is no big thing I d...

I'm lonely and I'm looking for a husband Like I do every Friday at this time A frisky thinking whiskey drinking husband I'm looking for a husband and he's mine If there's a tavern in the town Then that's where I'll look for my man It's payday and he's n...

I already know what I'm getting for my birthday it's something I been wanting all year I'm gonna get myself a very special present I'm gonna get myself a million miles from here There never was much happiness between us More tears and angry words than eve...

Our divorce has been granted there's no more you and me You don't care any longer what I think You gave me so much money if I'd let you go free And I cried all the way to the bank For it was you that I wanted not your gold It won't warm me when the nights...

I walk alone where once we wandered it seems so strange since you are gone Till you return I'll stay the same dear I'll still be true and walk alone By stars above I swear to love you with all the love I've ever known While we're apart you'll always own me...

The first strange town I was ever in the county was hangin' a man Nobody cared if he lived or died and I just didn't understand So I washed my face in the morning dew bathed my soul in the sun Washed my face in the morning dew and kept on moving along The...

I'm not too much of a woman at least that's what you say But you want me to get over love and it just don't work that way You tell me I'm failing you when I done all I can I'd be more of a woman if you'd be more of a man I'd be more of a woman the way you...

(I'm on the run the highway is my home) I raised a lot of Cain back in my younger days While mama used to pray my crops would fail Now I'm a hunted fugitive with just two ways: outrun the law or spend my life in jail I'd like to settle down but they won't...

Dawn never breaks without breaking my heart Eternity is not forever just since we're apart Even in the silence I can hear your voice ring And I shiver in the coldness that the warm teardrops bring And I've cried the rain down stare the stars out of sky Ta...

If I kiss you will you go away? Like in the game my mother used to play You're so much hurt I wish you wouldn't stay If I kiss you will you go away? My mom would come when I got hurt at play She'd kiss my hurt and it would go away But now I'm grown,...

Been so lonesome I wanna go home ain't been home in ever so long Goin' back home where happiness lies if the Lord is willing and the creek don't rise Goin' back home and see my mama again all of my family all of my friends Wrap myself in family ties if the...

Lay some happiness on me So the brighter side you'll see No more loneliness to be Lay some happiness on me Tell me I'm great and I'll be greater Build me up and I'll fly Love me now and I'll be glad later Tell your troubles bye bye Lay some happiness on me S...

Our love is like a merry go round you build me up you let me down You make my heart go round and round it's true But I like ride my merry go round with you You got me goin' round in circlers still my heart is spinning I'm all mixed up whatever will I do...

I hope I don't disturb you with this call I'm just in town for such a little while And I thought perhaps you'd like to hear the news Jeannie's grades were the highest in the school Billy sure does look a lot like you I understand your other son does too An...

Hear the wind how sad it's blowing it must know you'll soon be going What to do to free you off me I've no hold when you don't love me Set you free I just don't know how all I know I'll be alone now Happy you no more pretending sadness mine for love is endi...

When the big hand is on twelve and the little hand on six You come home tonight and no more childish pranks You come home from work real quick or your mama get stick Yes your mama get stick and mama spank Every night you don't come home from the way you'r...

His name's in the paper where he took the boy scouts to hike His hands are all dirty from working on our little boy's bike The preacher came by and we talked for a minute with him Now I'm here in the kitchen and Margie's at the Lincoln Park Inn And I know...

Time I take the time to try to reason out these worries on my mind More and more I feel I've had a bad deal a good deal of the time Maybe like you've often said the love we had is really not so hot Guess by now that's pretty plain and maybe I'm to blame and...

You just walked right up to me here at the table Said you found somebody else that you love so I won't try to stop you darling I'm not able But let me ask you just one thing before you go Did you have to bring that up while I was eating Just to tell me th...

Twitle dee dee dee dee twiddle dee dee oh oh... When the sun in the morning peeps over the hill And kisses the roses round my window sill Then my heart fills with gladness when I hear the trill Of the birds in the treetops on Mockin' Bird Hill Tra la la t...

I've got money marbles and chalk sweetheart but I still feel like I am poor Cause my money won't spend and my marbles won't roll And my chalk won't write anymore There's an old saying that's been all around I heard it before I could walk How some's got he...

(Never never) Love's gone away so now you say you'll never love again Love's hurt you so and you just know the pain will never end You feel like this and never is an easy word to say but never is a long long day Never say never whatever you say never is a...

Ten times up and three times down everybody knows that's the way to drown And then it's too late to swim to the shore And this'll be the third time you left me for her And there ain't gonna be no another time there ain't gonna be no another time Where ain'...

No one will ever know my heart is breaking Although a million teardrops start to flow I'll cry myself to sleep and wake up smiling I'll miss you but no one will ever know I'll tell them we grew tired of each other And realize our dreams could never be I'll ev...

Perhaps the excitement of keeping a secret the pleasure of playing a game Made us scheme made us plan to erase the middleman But now somehow things aren't the same Now nothing stands between us no wedding bands between us She set you free to come to me and...

It was the third of June another sleepy dusty Delta day I was out choppin' cotton and my brother was a bailin' hay And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat And mama hollered out the backdoor you all remember to wipe your feet And then...

We don't smoke marijuana in Muskogee we don't take our trips on LSD We don't burn out draft cards down on Main Street But we like living right and being free We don't make a party out of loving but we like holding hands and pitching woo We don't let our ha...

Someone means a lot to you there's hardly any doubt The more I think about it the lesser is to think about You don't love me anymore you been so cold so long And now you're walking out the door on your way to gone There can be for you and me no more happin...

If I were to lose your love if you ever go The stars still would shine above for ups I know As blue as it's always been the sky still would be For darling the world would end only for me Only for me the sun no more would shine if I lost you how dark the ni...

You only say hello so you can say goodbye While you're finding victims for your kisses sweet You pick out the hearts that break to make your ego high And I was just your pick of the week For you could see that I would be the perfect fool Too wrapped arou...

I remember when you said with this ring I Thee wed Now you've gone betrayed my trust rings of gold have turned to rust Tears can't wash away the sin love that's dead can't live again Knowing there's no hope for us turns these rings of gold to rust Plans we...

A long, long time ago, On graduation Day I handed you my book, You signed this way: Roses are red my love, Violets are blue Sugar is sweet my love, But not a sweet as you. We dated through High School, And when the big day came, You wrote into my book, Nex...

Oh how hard we fought today behind that courtroom door Deviding up the things we both had worked together for Now we go our seperate ways the ties no longer bind And so much will belong to you and so much will be mine It's over now the paper's signed Wha...

I found something that tell you didn't exist Something that makes up for all the love I've missed It took love from you to find there was more to life than mine Something called happiness I found when I found you I discovered there are days of sunshine Th...

Somewhere between your heart and mine there's a window that I can't see through There's a wall so high it reaches the sky somewhere between me and you I love you so much I can't let you go and sometimes I believe you love me But somewhere between your hear...

(Thanks a lot for trying anyway) What a shock to hear you say you're gonna leave me Though you tried to let me down the easy way You can't say you're gonna leave without it hurtin' But thanks a lot for trying anyway You were carefull with the words you...

You're back again and beggin' me once more to let you stay Pick up our lines where we left off before you went away I don't believe our love could be the way it was before So thanks but no thanks I don't think I want you anymore I can't forget my shattered hea...

You had a quite good thing goin' with the girls you used to knowin' You went up and down your list just like a yo-yo Though it may be hard to stop it I'm afraid you'll have to drop it Cause if you want me to love you that's a no no I know you're used to goin'...

Such a little time has passed since you went away Where are all these heartaches coming from? I can hardly stand the pain of missing you today And I know the worst is yet to come If there was something I could find to drive these tears from me Then I'd g...

I'd rather live a life of lies and fantasy Than face the truth and realize you're leavin' me You built me up so high my heart can't stand the fall And life without your love just isn't life at all So walk out backwards if you must go And please don't wav...
