"Lovin' Lies"

"Lovin' Lies"

I'll never understand, dear, as long as I live
I guess, I will always wonder why
You told me that you loved me straight from your heart
And then without a warning said goodbye?

Lovin' lies that I believed
And now how I grieve
You didn't mean them from the start
But you told me lovin' lies and broke my heart

You say, I'll soon forget you and find somebody new
But darling, oh, how wrong you are
I've only had one love, dear, and it was for you
And from that love my heart will bear a scar

Lovin' lies that I believed
And now how I grieve
You didn't mean them from the start
Yet you told me lovin' lies and broke my heart

"Lovin' You Is Worth It"

"Lovin' You Is Worth It"

I work hard and I work over time
And I'm still deep in debt
I tell myself I'll get ahead
But I haven't done it yet.

Sometimes I think of giving up
Leave you, pack up and go
But I love you for your sweet lips
And in your arms I know.

Lovin' you is worth it
Worth the heartbreak each day
We've come this far together
So it's together all the way.

I'll admit I'd like to have a house
New car and fancy clothes
Dress up, go out with you
To places where we used to go.

And I get lonely even though
You do your best for me
And when you tell me I love you
And kiss me I can see.

Lovin' you is worth it
Worth the heartbreak each day
We've come this far together
So it's together all the way.

We've come this far together
So it's together all the way...

"Loving Lies"

"Loving Lies"

I'll never understand dear as long as I live
I guess I will always wonder why
You told me that you loved me straight from your heart
And then without a warning said goodbye

Loving lies that I believed and now how I grieve
You didn't mean them from the start
But you told me loving lies and broke my heart

You say I'll soon forget you and find somebody new
But darling oh how wrong you are
I've only had one love dear and it was for you
And from that love my heart will bear a scar

Loving lies that I believed...

"Loving You Could Never Be Better"

"Loving You Could Never Be Better"

Well here we are, again, tonight alone just us two
Where lights are dim and true love is comin' through
There's no one else in this whole world as far as we're concerned
We've built us a fire so let it burn

When you look at me like you do right now I go to pieces
'Cause I know what's on your mind it's just me
You've got that love-me-look in your eyes like you've had so many times and how
Loving you could never be better than it is right now

Tomorrow night we'll meet again and once more fan the flame
'Cause loving you the way I do stays the same
This love of ours is just as strong as any vow could be
And love could never be better for you and me

When you look at me like you do right now I go to pieces
Because I know what's on your mind it's just me
You've got that love-me-look in your eyes like you've had so many times and how
Loving you could never be better than it is right now
Loving you could never be better than it is right now

"Loving You Makes You Mine"

"Loving You Makes You Mine"

Just for a moment I hold you
Each time someone mentions your name
And it happens each time that I see you
And the feelings inside are the same.

You are the dream I keep dreamin'
Each night when I drift off to sleep
Though it's only in dreams that I hold you
You are with me and I am complete.

But somehow I never quit hoping
That I will hold you in time
Till then it's nexts years tomorrow
Just lovin' you makes you mine.

You set a fire to my feelin's
Each time that I look in your eyes
You smile and I climb up to heaven
There's a rainbow from earth to the sky.

But somehow I never quit hoping
That I will hold you in time
Till then it's nexts years tomorrow
Just lovin' you makes you mine...

"Made For The Blues"

"Made For The Blues"

Sweet words were made to be spoken
And love was made for devotion
From says remain to be kept this is true
I was made for the blues.

Loving was made for the future
And fools were made for the losers
Happiness was made for someone and you
But I was made for the blues.

Yes I was made for the blues
But by now I'm gettin' you to the heartaches I have to go through
Yesterday was made for tomorrow
And trouble was made just for sorrow
Loving was made for the future and you
But I was made for the blues.

I was made for the blues

"Magic Valley"

"Magic Valley"

I'm going home to magic valley where hay turns into rose
I'm going home to magic valley leaving for my home above
Now don't you cry because I'm leaving for you see I've had my day
I've led the life that's not for grieving so rejoice with me and pray
For I hear my Lord telling me put down that heavy load
You'll reach your gold now follow me come on up the golden road
For I hear my Lord telling me...

"Maiden's Prayer"

"Maiden's Prayer"

When the evening falls twilight shadows find
There beneath the stars an Indian maiden divine
The moon is on high and seems to see her there
In her eyes there's a light shining ever so bright
As she whispers a silent prayer
Every word reveals an empty broken heart
Broken by fate that's keepin' them so far apart
Lonely there she kneels and tells the stars above
In her arms he belongs and her prayer is a song
Her undying song of love
Every word reveals an empty broken heart...

"Making The Rounds"

"Making The Rounds"

I'm making the rounds with someone new
Now that you've gone away
But making the rounds
It's not the fun if it was with you

The glamor has gone from all the spots
That seem so bright and gay
But making the rounds
Is all that's left for me to do

I never go home till the last
Hideaway place has closed its door
There's too much at home
To remind me that we're through

I laugh and pretend
That I'm not wishing for a bygone day
When we were in love
And I was making the rounds with you

I never go home till the
Last hideaway place has closed its door
There's too much at home
To remind me that we're through

I laugh and pretend
That I'm not wishing for a bygone day
When we were in love
And I was making the rounds with you

"Mama Was A Preacher Man"

"Mama Was A Preacher Man"

Mama was a preacher man, mama was God's right hand

I remember when daddy died, he said the Lord was by his side
With his last breath he said, "I'm going to the promised land"
That's when mama told us all that she had heard the call
And mama would be a preacher man

Far as I can remember back, mama was a woman that dressed in black
With the soul filled full of gospel and the Bible in her hand
She would go from town to town spreading God's word all around
Yes, mama was a real strong preacher man

Mama was a preacher man, mama was God's right hand
Mama really knew just how to reach way out
Mama was a preacher man, mama was God's right hand
Mama knew what the holy word was all around

I sit there on the very first row as she pleaded to lost souls
Telling them about Jesus there in the holy land
Although mama past away, she still lives on today
Yes, mama was an old time preacher man

Mama was a preacher man, mama was God's right hand
Mama really knew just how to reach way out
Mama was a preacher man, mama was God's right hand
Mama knew what the holy word was all around
Mama was a preacher man
