"Liar"

"Liar"

You say that you will
When I know that you won’t
You say that you do
Baby when I know you don’t
Really love me
You never loved me at all
Honey you never tried
If you did you would have had to crawl

You say that I did
Baby when you know I don’t
You said that I will
When you knew that I won’t
Ever love you
No I would not even try
Look if you say it again
I’ll swear that’s just one big lie

Oh you say that you do
But we both know you don’t
You still say that you will
When it’s so for sure you won’t
Ever love me
No you never even try
From the first day we met
And you said it, that was a lie

"Listen"

"Listen"

Listen in the places you hide
Listen through the stillness inside
Yeah, yeah, yeah listen
To the words that are near
And try to hear

Listen take one less step away
Please listen love may persuade you to stay
Yeah, yeah, yeah baby listen
Past the sound of your fear
And try to hear

Two hearts that doubted now beg to believe
Aching in silence each whispers a plea
Secrets of longing kept buried away
Sadly their calling grows weaker each day, yeah

Please listen for hope that's been left behind
Listen to the small traces you find
Yeah, yeah, baby please listen
Before this chance disappears
And try to hear

Listen in the places you hide
Yeah, listen through the stillness inside
Please, please, baby listen
For the love that is near
And try to hear

Listen take one less step away
Yeah, yeah, yeah, listen
Don't run so far off today
Please, please, baby listen
Push aside all your fears
And try to hear

Yeah, listen
Listen, please, baby listen
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby listen
Past the sound of all fears
And try to hear

"Little Chapel"
(feat. Heather Myles)

"Little Chapel"
(feat. Heather Myles)

Sun's goin' down, it's still a hundred an' three.
Drivin' 'cross the desert, down Highway fifteen.
There's no turnin' back now, got all that we need.
To a desert oasis, we're travelin', my baby an' me.

We're goin' to the Little Chapel,
On the Las Vegas strip,
Where the preacher looks like Elvis;
We could even strike it rich.
Life is a gamble,
But our love's a sure bet.
Goin' to the Little Chapel,
On the Las Vegas strip.

[Instrumental]

Car's broken down, the side of the road,
How we got this far, God only knows.
Sold everything, don't need luxury.
Been livin' on good lovin', my baby an' me.

We're goin' to the Little Chapel,
On the Las Vegas strip,
Where the preacher looks like Elvis;
We could even strike it rich.
Life is a gamble,
But our love's a sure bet.
Goin' to the Little Chapel,
On the Las Vegas strip.

Life is a gamble,
But our love's a sure bet.
Goin' to the Little Chapel, (Goin' to the Little Chapel.)
On the Las Vegas strip.

Goin' to the Little Chapel,
On the Las Vegas strip.

"Little Sister"
(originally by Elvis Presley)

"Little Sister"
(originally by Elvis Presley)

Little sister don't you, little sister don't you
Little sister don't you kiss me once or twice
Tell me that's it nice and then you run
Yeah yeah, little sister don't you do what your big sister done

You know, I dated your big sister
Oh, I took her to the show
Hey, I went for some candy
And along came Jim Dandy
And they slipped right out the door

Little sister don't you, little sister don't you
Little sister don't you kiss me once or twice
Tell me that's it nice and then you run
Yeah, little sister don't you do what your big sister done

I used to pull down on your pigtails
Hey girl, pinch your turned-up nose
Oh, but baby you've been growin'
And lately it's been showin'
From your head down to your toes

Little sister don't you, little sister don't you
Little sister don't you kiss me once or twice
Tell me that's it nice and then you run
Yeah, little sister don't you do what your big sister done

Hup, hup, hup!
All get on!

Every time I see your sister
Lord, she's with somebody new
Oh, she's mean and she's evil
Like a little old boll weevil
Think I'll try my love with you

Little sister don't you, little sister don't you
Little sister don't you kiss me once or twice
Tell me that's it nice and then you run
Yeah, little sister don't you do what your big sister done
Well, little sister don't you do what your big sister done
Oh, little sister don't you do what your big sister done

"Little Ways"

"Little Ways"

You've got your little ways to hurt me
You know just how to tear me up
And leave me in small pieces on the ground
You've got your little ways to hurt me
They're not too big but they're real tough
Just one cold look from you can knock me down

To look at you and me, no one would ever know
The pain that I've endured 'cause I won't let it show
My friends would laugh out loud if they only knew
The truth about how I am just your lovesick fool

'Cause you've got your little ways to hurt me
You know just how to tear me up
And leave me in small pieces on the ground
And you've got your little ways to hurt me
They're not too big but they're real tough
Just one cold look from you can knock me down

The sadness in my eyes should somehow be a clue
But no one here would ever suspect sweet little you
There've been rumors of the truth but I've kept it quiet
'Cause I'm too ashamed to let them know you make me cry

And you've got your little ways to hurt me
You know just how to tear me up
And leave me in small pieces on the ground
You've got your little ways to hurt me
They're not too big but they're real tough
Just one cold look from you can knock me down
Yeah, your little ways can knock me to the ground

"Loco Motion"

"Loco Motion"

Ohhh yeah, uh-uh-huh, oh yeah
Everybody's doin' the brand new dance now
Come on baby, do the locomotion
I know you'll get to like it if you give it a chance now
Come on baby, do the locomotion
My little baby sister can do it with ease
It's easier than learnin' your ABC's
So come on, come on and do the locomotion with me
Ohhh yeah, ub-uh-huh, oh yeah.

Now that you can do it, let's make a chain now
Come on baby, do the locomotion
A chugga, chugga motion like a railway train now
Come on baby, do the locomotion
Do it nice and easy now, don't lose control
A little bit of rhythm and a lotta soul
So come on, come on, do the locomotion with me.

[Chorus:]
You've gotta swing your hips now
Come on baby, jump up, jump back
Well, I think you've got the nack
Lead.

[Chorus:]
You've gotta swing your hips now
Come on baby, jump up, jump back
Well, I think you've got the nack
Lead.

Move around the floor in a-locomotion
Come on baby, do the locomotion
Do it holdin' hands till you got the notion
Come on baby, do the locomotion
There's never been a dance that's so easy to do
It even makes you happy when you're feelin' blue.

C'mon baby, do the locomotion
Uh-huh-huh, yeah baby, do the locomotion
Uh-huh-huh, baby, please do the locomotion
C'mon, c'mon and do...

"Lonesome Roads"

"Lonesome Roads"

Where did I go wrong?
You know I've never had a clue
I must have just been born no good
Bad's the best that I can do

Was it just my fate in life
To end up here this way
Lost and all alone
One more black lamb that's gone astray

Lonesome roads are the only kind I ever travel
Empty rooms are the only place I ever stay
I'm just a face out in the crowd that looks like trouble
Poor ol' worthless me is the only friend I ever made

Lonesome roads are the only kind I ever travel
Empty rooms are the only place I ever stay
I'm just a face out in the crowd that looks like trouble
Poor ol' worthless me is the only friend I ever made
Poor ol' worthless me is the only friend I ever made

"Long Way To Go"

"Long Way To Go"

Dreamin' is only dreamin'
Till dreamin' is the only thing that's true

Wishin' is only wishin'
Till my only thoughts' the wish to be with you
I've got a long way to go before I get there
I've got a lot of field to hoe with the sun so high
Got a lot of miles to roll
And the next few only show
That there's still such a long way to go

Hopin' doesn't feel like hopin'
If I can feel your heart hopin' too

Touchin' Doesn't feel like touchin'
Until feel the next touch from you

I've got a long way to go before I get there
I've got a lot of field to hoe with the sun so high
Got a lot of miles to roll
And the next few only show
That there's still such a long way to go

Wanting just keeps me wanting
The next and last both keep me wanting you

Waiting just keeps me waiting
Until there's no more waiting left to do

I've got a long way to go before I get there
I've got a lot of field to hoe with the sun so high
Got a lot of miles to roll
And the next few only show
That there's still such a long way to go
