"Leave Me Something To Remember You By"

"Leave Me Something To Remember You By"


Leave me a lock of your golden hair
Leave a memory that we once shared
Leave me the twinkle in your eye
Leave me something to remember you by.

Leave me a kiss as you walk out the door
For you know and I know you won't be back no more
Leave me a way as you say goodbye
Leave me something to remember you by.

[Instrumental]

Leave me a kiss as you walk out the door
For you know and I know you won't be back no more
Leave me a way as you say goodbye
Leave me something to remember you by.

Leave me something to remember you by...

"Let Me Get My Message Through"

"Let Me Get My Message Through"



I've got letters, return phone calls, no answer
But I can't get my message through
Every dream is of you and I know that it's true
That I love you, love you.

Let me get my message through
Let me get my message through to you
Can't you hear my heart cries
It's making my soul die.

I know, I done wrong but I want to belong in your heart
Make me a part of you
So let me get my message through
I'll be yours and I'll be true.

Let me get my message through to you.
Uh huh, Huh uh...

"Let The Sad Times Roll On"

"Let The Sad Times Roll On"


Put a quarter in the jukebox and let it play
That same sad song that's been playing all day
You know the one where his darling is gone
So pour the red wine play the jukebox
And let the sad times roll on.

Let the sad times roll on
'Cause she's gone, she's gone
So pour the red wine play the jukebox
And let the sad times roll on.

[Instrumental]

I watch as the record spins around
As he tells of a love that's let him down
He's singing my life story in his song
So pour the red wine play the jukebox
And let the sad times roll on.

Let the sad times roll on
'Cause she's gone, she's gone
So pour the red wine play the jukebox
And let the sad times roll on...

"Let The World Keep On A Turnin'"

"Let The World Keep On A Turnin'"



Let the world keep on a turnin', let the fire keep on a burnin'
Let our love keep on a growin' to the sky
Let our ship of love keep sailin', keep the storm clouds far away
And hand in hand, we'll walk together side by side

Please don't pay me attention to someone that they should mention
As they saw me in the arms of Mary Jane
Oh, it's plain they're only jealous and their hearts are filled with malice
Their intention is to only bring us pain

Let the world keep on a turnin', let the fire keep on a burnin'
Let our love keep on a growin' to the sky
Let our ship of love keep sailin', keep the storm clouds far away
And hand in hand, we'll walk together side by side

When they try to cause us trouble, we'll politely pop their pubble
By ignoring any gossip they might start
So let the north wind keep a blowin', we'll be safe 'cause we'll be a-knowin'
That our love is safely locked inside our hearts

Let the world keep on a turnin', let the fire keep on a burnin'
Let our love keep on a growin' to the sky
Let our ship of love keep sailin', keep the storm clouds far away
And hand in hand we'll walk together side by side

Hand in hand we'll walk together side by side
Hand in hand we'll walk together side by side

"Let's Agree To Disagree"

"Let's Agree To Disagree"


The flame of love was burning high
We vowed to never let it die
But now you're growing tired of me
So let's agree to disagree.

Let's agree to disagree
There's nothing left for you and me
You won't be happy till you're free
So let's agree to disagree.

[Instrumental]

I'll miss you but I'll live somehow
In fact I miss you even now
But you don't want no part of me
So let's agree to disagree.

Let's agree to disagree
There's nothing left for you and me
You won't be happy till you're free
So let's agree to disagree...

"Lodi"

"Lodi"


Just about a year ago I sat out on the road
Seeking my fame and fortune looking for a pot of gold
Things got bad and things got worse I guess you know the tune
Oh Lord I'm stuck in Lodi again.

I rode in on the Greyhound, I'll be walking out if I go
I was just passin' through, must been seven months ago
I ran out of time and money, it looks like they took my friend
Oh Lord I'm stuck in Lodi again.

[Instrumental]

The man from the magazine he said I was on my way
Somewhere I lost connection I ran out of songs to play
I came into town a one night stand it looks like my plans fell through
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.

[Instrumental]

If I only had a dollar for every song I've sung
Every time I pass the place while people sat there drunk
You know I'd catch the next train back to where I lived
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.

Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again...

"Lonesome Valley"

"Lonesome Valley"


You gotta walk that lonesome valley
You gotta go there by yourself
There's no one else gonna go there for you
You gotta go there by yourself.

Now my mama said, when she was dying
Son, oh son, you've left alone
Yes, put your trust alone in Jesus
And he will lead you safely home.

You gotta walk that lonesome valley
You gotta go there by yourself
There's no one else gonna go there for you
You gotta go there by yourself.

[Instrumental]

Some folks say John was the baptist
Others say it wasn't true
But the Holy Bible tells us
That he was a preacher, too.

You gotta walk that lonesome valley
You gotta go there by yourself
There's no one else gonna go there for you
You gotta go there by yourself...

"Long Hot Summer"

"Long Hot Summer"



It's gonna be a long hot summer
There's not a cloud in the sky
Weatherman says fair and warmer
Is that a tear in my eye.

It's gonna be a long cold winter
Just hope to God I don't freeze
It's gonna be a bad year for the roses
And a long hot summer's for me.

Well, you say that you're leavin'
And that you ain't comin' back
And the way things're looking
I don't doubt it not one a little bit.

But what I am you made me
And that's all I'll ever be
And if you don't change your mind about leavin'
It's gonna be a long hot summer for me.

It's gonna be a long cold winter
Just hope to God I don't freeze
It's gonna be a bad year for the roses
And a long hot summer's for me...

"Long, Long Ago"

"Long, Long Ago"


Since you and I parted in silence and tears
So broken hearted we've suffered for years
Your cheek was pale and your hand was so cold
I remember you saying as you turned to go.

That I'd cry in my sleep and your name I would call
Your face I would see every night on my wall
That I'd waken in the morning in tears to recall
You're tellin' me darling so long, long ago.

[Instrumental]

If we should meet after long, lonely years
If I should greet you with silence and tears
But if I'd reach to touch you, oh, so you will know
I remember you're tellin' me long, long ago.

That I'd cry in my sleep and your name I would call
Your face I would see every night on my wall
That I'd waken in the morning in tears to recall
You're tellin' me darling so long, long ago.

I remember you darling from long, long ago...

"Lookin' Out My Back Door"

"Lookin' Out My Back Door"



Just got home from Illinois lock the front door oh boy
Got to set down take a rest on the porch
Fascination sets in pretty soon I'm singing
Doot doot doot looking out my back door

Giant doing cartwheels a statue wearing high heels
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn
Dinosaur victrola listening to Buck Owens
Doot doot doot looking out my back door

Memories and elephants are playing in the band
Won't you take a ride on the flying spoon doot doo doo
Wondrous apparition provided by magician
Doot doot doot looking out my back door

Memories and elephants are playing in the band
Won't you take a ride on the flying spoon doot doo doo
Bother me tomorrow today I'll find no sorrow
Doot doot doot looking out my back door

All the trouble is Illinois lock the front door oh boy
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn
Bother me tomorrow today I'll find no sorrow
Doot doot doot looking out my back door
