"No More Me And You"

"No More Me And You"


No more floors to walk
No more walls to talk
No more dreams to dream
No more schemes to scheme.

No more happiness,
Only loneliness
No more skies of blue
No more me and you.

[Instrumental]

No more lips to kiss
No more arms to miss
No more jealous fights
Only sleepless nights.

No more friends to face
Love's gone without a trace
No more skies of blue
No more me and you...

"Nobody's Fool But Yours"

"Nobody's Fool But Yours"


They say for everybody there is a fool
And that's the way it's always been between me and you
Anytime you're ready you treat me like a friend
'Cause you know that I'm just fool enough to take you back again.

Yes, I'm nobody's fool, nobody's fool
Nobody's fool but yours
And although you do me wrong I'll still tag along
'Cause I'm nobody's fool but yours.

[Instrumental]

You falsely accused me of doing you wrong
That's just an excuse you used to string me along
A toy you play with and when you are through
You throw me away and find somebody knew.

But, I'm nobody's fool, nobody's fool
Nobody's fool but yours
And although you do me wrong I'll still tag along
'Cause I'm nobody's fool but yours...

"Nugget Lament"

"Nugget Lament"



Well I went to the nugget with my pockets full of money
Big ole diamond rings on my hand
I rolled into town, in a big long Cadillac
I was a man with a plan

With smile on my face I walked up to the table
And threw down a hundred dollar bill
Bakersfield, I'm on my way
Dear old daddy, come through again

They took my bankroll, my diamond rings, my Cadillac
But the thing that hurt the most about the whole danged act
Was the audacity, to smile and say... please hurry back!

So I called up my buddy, and said "lend me some money"
For I could feel a hot streak coming on
Bakersfield, I'm on my way
Dear old daddy, come through again

Alas,
They took my bankroll, my diamond rings, my Cadillac
Had the audacity, to smile and say... please hurry back!
But the thing that hurt the most about the whole danged act
Was when he grinned, said let's be friends... well I thought I'd choke

For if I ever need, a friend again... I'll buy a dog!

"Number One Heel"

"Number One Heel"


Oh, I'm the number one heel in the country
I'm the top of the list it's plain to see
And you're the number one fool that still loves me
Number one heel is all I'll ever be.

You gave me your love with no reservation
My every wish was your every command
You built all of our future together
Your broken heart wasn't part of the plan.

Oh, I'm the number one heel in the country
I'm the top of the list it's plain to see
And you're the number one fool that still loves me
Number one heel is all I'll ever be.

[Instrumental]

Oh, I made such beautiful speeches
And the pictures I painted seemed real
Trusting you, you had no way of knowing
That I'd turn out to be such a heel.

Oh, I'm the number one heel in the country
I'm the top of the list it's plain to see
And you're the number one fool that still loves me
Number one heel is all I'll ever be...

"Old Faithful"

"Old Faithful"



I've said this was the last time a hundred times before
And the next time that you called I'd tell you off
I've promised me the luxury of showing you the door
Oh, I could hardly wait till I could tell you to get lost.

Yes, I've rehearsed every word of just what I would say
Beginning with I've had it up to here
But I know I'd be lying and soon
I'd feel like dying so old faithful is still here.

Yes darling, old faithful will come running
Old faithful will be there
When you hunger for the touch of someone who really feels love
Old faithful will be there.

When you hunger for the touch of someone who really feels love
Old faithful will be there...

"Old Time Religion"

"Old Time Religion"


Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion
It's good enough for me.

It makes me love everybody
Makes me love everybody
Makes me love everybody
It's good enough for me.

Well, it was good enough for mother
It was good enough for papa
It was good enough for sister
And it's good enough for me.

Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion
It's good enough for me.

[Instrumental]

It will do me when I'm dying
It will do me when I'm dying
It will do me when I'm dying
It's good enough for me.

It will take us all to heaven
It will take us all to heaven
It will take us all to heaven
It's good enough for me.

Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion
Give me that old time religion
It's good enough for me.

Give me that old time religion
It's good enough for me.

"Ole Slew Foot"

"Ole Slew Foot"


High on the mountain, tell me what do you see
Bear tracks, bear tracks, a lookin' back at me
Better get your rifle boys, before it's too late
'Cause bear's got a little pig and headed through the gate.

Well, he's big around the middle and he's broad across the rump
Runnin' ninety miles an hour takin' forty feet a jump
Ain't never been caught, he ain't never been treed
Some folks say he's a lot like me.

[Instrumental]

Saved up my money and I got me some bees
They started makin' honey, way up in the trees
Cut down the trees 'cause my honey's all gone
Old Slew Foot's done made himself at home.

Well, he's big around the middle and he's broad across the rump
Runnin' ninety miles an hour takin' forty feet a jump
Ain't never been caught, he ain't never been treed
Some folks say he's a lot like me.

[Instrumental]

Well, winter's comin' on and it's twenty below
The river's froze over so where can he go
We'll chased him up to gully and we'll run him in the well
We'll shoot him in the bottom just to listen to him yell.

Well, he's big around the middle and he's broad across the rump
Runnin' ninety miles an hour takin' forty feet a jump
Ain't never been caught, he ain't never been treed
Some folks say he's a lot like me.

Some folks say he's a lot like me...

"On The Cover Of The Music City News"

"On The Cover Of The Music City News"


Well, we're country singers
We got golden fingers and
We're loved everywhere we go

We do our picking
And we do our grinning
For ten thousand dollars a show

We get all kinds of thrills
From all kinds of deals
But the one we never knew

Is the one that'll getcha
When you get your picture
On the cover of the Music City News

[Chorus:]
(Music City News)
Wanna see my picture on the cover
(News) gonna buy five copies
For my mother (news)
Gonna see my smiling face
On the cover of the Music City News

Got a big long bus
With a driver named Gus
That shines our cowboy boots
(That's right)

Got a custom made car
With a built in bar
And a closet full of Nudie suits

We fly jet airplanes
And drink pink champagne
With folks like Howard Hughes

And we keep getting richer
But we can't get out picture
On the cover of the Music City News

[Chorus]

We got snuff queen babys
And some backstage ladies
With furs and diamond rings

We got aunts and uncles
And shirt tail cousins like
You ain't never seen

We got all the friends
That money can buy
So we never have to sing the blues

And they all call us mister
But we can't get our picture
On the cover of the Music City News

[Chorus]

On the cover of the Music City News

"One Of Everything You Got"

"One Of Everything You Got"



My little boy is a barrel of fun
There's nothin' in the world that he ain't done
He wrote ol' Santa Claus a letter today
A-makin' sure that it comes his way

I mind my mama and my daddy too
I've done everything that they ought to do
Just so there won't be a mistake
For here's the list of everythin' I'll take

I want some of this and some of that
Some cowboy boots and a cowboy hat
A choo choo train and a baseball bat
A puppy dog and a baby cat

Bring me a transistor radio
A sting ray bike that'll really go
A police car with a light on the top
Bring me one of everything you got

Santa Claus, I promise you
I won't do things that I oughtn't to
Well, I'm-a gotta quit and actin' like a kid
I'm six years old and it's time I did

Last night after he went to bed
Well, I listened then and here's what he said
God bless mama and daddy and me
And God bless Santa on Christmas Eve

I want some of this and some of that
Some cowboy boots and a cowboy hat
A choo choo train and a baseball bat
A puppy dog and a baby cat

Bring me a transistor radio
A sting ray bike that'll really go
A police car with a light on the top
Bring me one of everything you got

I don't wanna put you in a spot
So bring me one of everything you got

"One Way Love"

"One Way Love"


You never think of givin', you only take
And you don't seem to care how many rules you break
Although I know you're wrong, I let you have your way
Anything to own your love just, one more day.

One way love that's all you have for me
One way love is just plain misery
I say that we're all through and then you call me up
And once again, I'm falling for your one way love.

[Instrumental]

I guess you never loved me and you never will
For it don't seem to matter to you, how I feel
So I'll play second fiddle if that's the only way
And hope that some day you'll come to my arms and stay.

One way love that's all you have for me
One way love is just plain misery
I say that we're all through and then you call me up
And once again, I'm falling for your one way love...
