"I'll Take A Chance On Loving You"

"I'll Take A Chance On Loving You"


If you don't want to run around
If you will really settle down
I'll take a chance on loving you.
If you will be my very own
If you'll be mine and mine alone
I'll take a chance on loving you.

Well, there's lots of pretty girls
In this wide wide world
But none I've seen can hold a light to you.
You're the cutest the sweetest
The nices the neatest
And I'll tell you what I'm a gonna do.

If you don't want to run around
If you will really settle down
I'll take a chance on loving you.
If you will be my very own
If you'll be mine and mine alone
I'll take a chance on loving you.

[Instrumental]

Well, did you really mean it
Or did I just dream it
When you said I was the one for you.
Now, don't make me regret it
Too late to forget it
The day that I fell on love with you.

If you don't want to run around
If you will really settle down
I'll take a chance on loving you.
If you will be my very own
If you'll be mine and mine alone
I'll take a chance on loving you...

"I'm A Natural Loser"

"I'm A Natural Loser"


I guess I was born with a bad luck
I never heard a good luck call
And if it wasn't for a bad luck
I wouldn't have any luck at all.

Everybody's luck keep changing
My luck stays the same
I talk and nobody listens
And no one remembers my name.

I'm a natural loser loser
Walkin' down the loser's trail
I'm a natural loser, loser
Walkin' all I ever do is fail.

[Instrumental]

I drove over to Las Vegas
In my nine thousand dollar Cadillac
And before I could say Jack Robinson
I was a walking back.

Now a steamboats sold for a nickel
And stayed on sale for a week
I'd have to run up and down the bank yellin'
Geewiz ain't that cheap.

I'm a natural loser
Walkin' down the loser's trail
I'm a natural loser, loser
Walkin' all I ever do is fail.

Walkin' down the loser's trail
All I ever do is fail...

"I'm Goin' Home"

"I'm Goin' Home"



Sometimes when I am lonely
I get to thinking bout the places that I've been
I turn around in the same old direction, once again
I'm going home on a midnight train.

When I left you was the middle of the winter
The ground was covered by a cold, cold snow
My heart was young and I was searching but in vain
I'm going home on a midnight train.

Home is not just a place where you are living
Home means more when you've got no place to go
And when you're down and need someone to stand beside you
Turn around and go on home.

When you're down and need someone to stand beside you
Turn around and go on home...

"I'm Gonna Live It Up"

"I'm Gonna Live It Up"


I'm gonna live it up so you can live it down
I'm tired of being laughed at like like a clown
We'll see who's giving who the run around
I'm gonna live it up so you can live it down.

Well, they say that every dog's a gonna have his day
Well, now the time has come for this ol' hound to play
You'll find me where the lights're bright and gay
And while the sun shines I'll be a makin' hay.

I'm gonna live it up so you can live it down
I'm tired of being laughed at like like a clown
We'll see who's giving who the run around
I'm gonna live it up so you can live it down.

[Instrumental]

Well, you've had me by the nose now, long enough
But now I'm a gonna change and call your bluff
Stand back and gimme room to strut my stuff
And don't get in the way for the things might get rough.

I'm gonna live it up so you can live it down
I'm tired of being laughed at like like a clown
We'll see who's giving who the run around
I'm gonna live it up so you can live it down.

I'm gonna live it up so you can live it down...

"I'm Layin' It On The Line"

"I'm Layin' It On The Line"


I'll lay it on the line and
I'm a gonna make you mine
I think I better warn you
It's only just a matter of time.

Your as good as gone
Or my name ain't Don
I'm gonna make you mine
I'm tellin' you straight
I'm a layin' it on the line.

Well, the first time I looked
Into your big brown eyes
You really gave me a thrill
You were pretty and sweet
And everything neat
And dressed up fit to kill.

I knew right then
I had to win
Your heart and
I don't mean maybe
I'll lay it on the line
And I gotta make
You my baby.

I'll lay it on the line and
I'm a gonna make you mine
I think I better warn you
It's only just a matter of time.

Your as good as gone
Or my name ain't Don
I'm gonna make you mine
I'm tellin' you straight
I'm a layin' it on the line.

[Instrumental]

Well, I'm just a homegrown
Country man
That ain't been much to school
Oh, but I don't take much
Of schoolin' and such
To know that I want you
Yeah, I can feel
A need in me
Without you dear
I'm a hurtin'
I'm layin' it on the line
I gotta have you for certain.

I'll lay it on the line and
I'm a gonna make you mine
I think I better warn you
It's only just a matter of time.

Your as good as gone
Or my name ain't Don
I'm gonna make you mine
I'm tellin' you straight
I'm a layin' it on the line.

Yeah, I'm tellin' you straight
I'm a layin' it on the line...

"I've Got A Happy Heart"

"I've Got A Happy Heart"


(Happiness is something that we all need plenty of
Starts from deep inside your heart, when you've
Someone to love, So if you're not as happy as you
Feel you ought to be, find someone in this world
To love and have a happy heart like me.)

I've got a happy heart feel like I could almost fly
I think if someone shot me that I wouldn't even die
Just find someone to live for and to love and then you'll see
Why I've got this happy heart inside of me.

[Instrumental]

A smile is so becoming, yet how many times it's true
A person wears a frown 'cause it's a habit to be blue
Sometimes it takes convincin' that life can't be all that bad
Just take a look around you and you won't feel quite so sad.

I've got a happy heart feel like I could almost fly
I think if someone shot me that I wouldn't even die
Just find someone to live for and to love and then you'll see
Why I've got this happy heart inside of me.

Why, I've got this happy heart inside of me...

"I've Got A Right To Know"

"I've Got A Right To Know"


I've tried so hard for so long to be part of your plan
But I can't go no longer not knowing where I stand
If your heart beats for someone else and our love has grown cold
Oh darling, if I'm losin' you, I've got a right to know.

I've got a right to know just where I stand
I've got a right to know if I'm your man
If fate has changed the plans we've made the happiness I know
Oh darling, if I'm losin' you I've got a right to know.

[Instrumental]

I've tagged along through right and wrong because I worship you
To prove my love there's not a thing that I wouldn't do
Yes, I've stood by through tear dimmed eyes and hoped it didn't show
Oh darling, if I'm losin' you I've got a right to know.

I've got a right to know just where I stand
I've got a right to know if I'm your man
If fate has changed the plans we've made the happiness I know
Oh darling, if I'm losin' you I've got a right to know...

"I've Got A Tiger By The Tail"

"I've Got A Tiger By The Tail"



I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see
I won't be much when you get through with me
Well I'm a-losing weight and I'm turning mighty pale
Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

Well I thought the day I met you, you were meek as a lamb
Just the kind to fit my dreams and plans
Now, the pace we're livin' takes the wind from my sails
And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
I've got a tiger by the tail

I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see
I won't be much when you get through with me
Well I'm a-losing weight and I'm turning mighty pale
Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

Well, every night you drag me where the bright lights're found
There ain't no way to slow you down
I'm about as helpless as a leaf in a gale
And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail
I've got a tiger by the tail

I've got a tiger by the tail, it's plain to see
I won't be much when you get through with me
Well I'm a-losing weight and I'm turning mighty pale
Looks like I've got a tiger by the tail

"I've Got It Bad For You"

"I've Got It Bad For You"



I worship the ground that you walk on
I breathe every breath for you
I live every day to make you happy
Yes, I've got it bad for you.

I hurt every time someone hurts you
I cry every time they make you blue
I live every day to make you happy
Yes, I've got it bad for you.

I know I'd die if you ever should leave me
For my whole world turns around you
I live every day to make you happy
Yes, I've got it bad for you.

Yes, I've got it bad for you...

"I've Got You On My Mind Again"

"I've Got You On My Mind Again"



I've got you on my mind again
You've been there since I don't know when
I said that I'd forget, that I'd never look back
That I'd find somebody else so little further down the track

But that same old hurt is back once more
It's certain you walked out the door
And as the long day ends and the lonely night begin
I've got you on my mind again

Well, I said that you'd be out of mind when you've got out of sight
That there'd never be one lonely moment or one sleepless night
But lately I've been finding out just what a heartache means
For every time I close my eyes I see you in my dreams

And I've got you on my mind again
You've been there since I don't know when
I said that I'd forget and I'd never look back
That I'd find somebody else so little further down the track

But that same old hurt is back once more
It's certain you walked out the door
And as the long day ends and the lonely night begin
I've got you on my mind again

I've got you on my mind again
