"Make Me Know You're Mine"

"Make Me Know You're Mine"

Make me, make me, make me know you're mine
My true love, oh, tell me and be kind
Make me feel tears that you can't ignore
Each kiss is sweeter than the one before.

Oh baby, take me and make me know you're mine.

Hurt me till these teardrops burn my eyes
As long as I'm the treasure that you find
Make me holler, I'll come back for more
Each kiss is sweeter than the one before.

Oh baby, take me and make me know you're mine.
Oh baby, take me and make me know you're mine.

Hurt me till these teardrops burn my eyes
As long as I'm the treasure and you're mine
Make me holler, I'll come back for more
Each kiss is sweeter than the one before.

Oh baby, take me and make me know you're mine.
Oh baby, take me and make me know you're mine.
Oh baby, take me and make me know you're mine...

"Making Believe"

"Making Believe"

Making believe that you still love me
It's leavin' me alone and so blue
But I'll always dream, still I'll never own you
Making believe, it's all I can do?

Can't hold you close, when you're not with me
You're somebody's love, you'll never be mine
Making believe I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you and making believe.

Making believe that I never lost you
But my happy hours that I find now are so few
My plans for the future will never come true
Making believe what else can I do?

Can't hold you close, when you're not with me
You're somebody's love, you'll never be mine
Making believe I'll spend my lifetime
Loving you and making believe...

"Making Plans"

"Making Plans"

You say tomorrow you're leaving
It's so hard for me to believe
I'm making plans for the heartaches
'Cause you're making plans to leave.

The tears for me will be falling
Like a tree shedding its leaves
I'm making plans for the teardrops
'Cause you're making plans to leave.

You're making plans to forget me
And I'm making plans to miss you
I'm gettin' ready to grieve
I'm making plans to be lonesome
'Cause you're making plans to leave

I'm making plans to be lonesome
'Cause you're making plans to leave...

"Mama Tried"

"Mama Tried"

First thing I remember knowin' was a lonesome whistle blowin'
And the youngest dream of growin' up to ride
On a freight train leaving town not knowing where I'm bound
And no one could change my mind, but mama tried.

One and only rebel child for my family meek and mild
My mama seemed to know what lay in store
Inspite of all my Sunday learnin'
Toward the bad I kept on turnin'
Till mama couldn't hold me anymore.

I turned twenty one in prison doing life without parole
No one could steer me right, but mama tried, mama tried.
Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading I denied
That leaves only me to blame, 'cause mama tried.

Dear old daddy, rest his soul, left my mama heavy load
She tried so very hard to fill his shoes
Workin' hours without rest, wanted me to have the best
She tried to raise me right but I refused.

I turned twenty one in prison doing life without parole
No one could steer me right, but mama tried, mama tried.
Mama tried to raise me better but her pleading I denied
That leaves only me to blame, 'cause mama tried...

"Man Alone"

"Man Alone"

My baby's gone I know not where
This lonliness is hard to bear
These tears I cry are all in vain
I'm never gonna see her face again.

Some other guy had got my gal and gone
I don't know why she dad done me wrong
I only know I can't go on
I've been hangin' around this town too long.

Will I make it alright? Well, I don't know
And nowhere to stay, no place to go
I gotta leave this town far, far behind
I gotta try to ease my troubled mind.

This road I walk is a takin' me away
From all my misery and if I ever,
Ever reach the end
I ain't never gonna walk this road again.

Will I make it alright? Well, I don't know
And nowhere to stay, no place to go
I gotta leave this town far, far behind
I gotta try to ease my troubled mind.

Well, this road I walk is a-takin' me away
From all my misery and if I ever,
Ever reach the end
I aint never gonna walk this road again.

Well, a man alone, unh huh, that's me
Well, a man alone is misery...

"Maybellene"
(originally by Chuck Berry)

"Maybellene"
(originally by Chuck Berry)

As I was motivatin' over the hill
I saw Maybellene in a Coupe DeVille
Cadillac movin' down an open road
Nothin' outrunnin' my V-8 Ford
Cadillac doin' 'bout ninety-five
Bumper to bumper, rollin' side to side

Maybellene, why can't you be true
Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true
You done started back doin' the things you used to do

Well, the Cadillac moved up ahead of the Ford
The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
It done got cloudy and started to rain
I tooted my horn for the passin' lane
The rainwater blown all under my hood
I knew that were doin' my motor good

Maybellene, why can't you be true
Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true
You done started back doin' the things you used to do

Well now, the motor cooled down and the heat went down
And that's when I heard that highway sound
Cadillac settin' like a ton of lead
A hundred and ten, a half a mile ahead
Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still
I caught Maybellene at the top of the hill

Maybellene, why can't you be true
Oh Maybellene, why can't you be true
You done started back doin' the things you used to do

"Me And My Neighbor"

"Me And My Neighbor"

I was on my way to church one Sunday
I heard my neighbor say,
That other church across the street
Well, it don't belong today.

Why, they scream and shout and they carry on
Like the world was gonna end
And I watched him stand in silence
As the sermon began.

Well, it was my neighbor,
Who stood and listened
While the power of God
Filled the hearts of everyone.

Yes, it was my neighbor
Who kneeled and prayed
Well, it was my neighbor
That shouted louder than anyone.

Well, I stood there and listened,
I could not turn away
Everybody in the neighborhood
All came in to pray.

I won't forget that Sunday
When God filled the neighborhood
It might have been a little old fashioned
But it done us all some good.

Well, it was me and my neighbor,
Who stood and listened
While the power of god
Filled the hearts of everyone.

Yes, it was me and my neighbor
That kneeled and prayed
Well, it was me and my neighbor
That shouted louder than anyone.

Give me that old time religion;
give me that old time religion,
Give me that old time religion,
Its good enough for me.

Give me that old time religion;
give me that old time religion,
Give me that old time religion,
Oh, its good enough for me.

Give me that old time religion;
give me that old time religion,
Give me that old time religion;
Give me that old time religion...

"Memory Of Your Sweet Love"

"Memory Of Your Sweet Love"

It was in my weakest moment
When temptation was so strong
Then the mem'ry of your sweet love
Came and got me and brought me home.

Today I tried to tell myself
I didn't love you anymore
Even led temptation take my hand
And lead me to her door.

Just as her footsteps came to me
I knew that I was wrong
Then the mem'ry of your sweet love
Came and got me and brought me home.

Just to know that you were waiting
Made everything else seems small
And if I could make the things come close
I came to losing it all.

It was in my weakest moment
When temptation was so strong
Then the mem'ry of your sweet love
Came and got me and brought me home.

Just to know that you were waiting
May everything else seems small
She made me forget my world at home
But only for a while

Then I remeber the times I fail
How she always pushed me on
Then the mem'ry of your sweet love
Came and got me and brought me home...

"Memphis, Tennessee"

"Memphis, Tennessee"

Long distance information give me Memphis Tennessee
Help me find the party try to get in touch with me
I could not have her number but I know who placed the call
My uncle took the message and he wrote it on the wall

Now help me information get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who's called me here from Memphis Tennessee
Her home is on the southside high up on a ridge
Just a half a mile from that Mississippi Bridge

Last time I saw Marie she was waving me goodbye
With hurry home drops on her cheeks that trickled from her eyes
We were separated cause her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee

Oh help me operator more than this I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
Oh Marie is only six years old information please
Try to get me through to her in Memphis Tennessee
