"No Blues Is Good News"

"No Blues Is Good News"


Well I buy the Sunday papers every Saturday night
Lookin' forward to tomorrow everything seems right
Seems like I'm a smilin' from my head down to my shoes
My baby loves me and no blues is good news

Well I used to be as lonely as a motherless child
It took every muscle in my body to smile
I got a funny feeling like I ain't never had
I tingle all over and a part of me feels bad

The misery and the loneliness that I've known before
Just makes me appreciate my baby that much more
When I come home there's kissin' my pipe and my house shoes
My baby loves me and no blues is good news

I smile and say good mornin' on the cloudiest day
I tip my hat to children as I I go on my way
The sun is shining and it's warming me too
My baby loves me and no blues is good news

Well I used to be as lonely as a motherless child...
The misery and the loneliness that I've known before...

"No Charge"

"No Charge"


My little girl came up to me in the kitchen this evening while I was fixing supper
And she handed me a piece of paper she'd been writin' on
And after wiping my hands on my apron I read it and this is what she said

For mowin' the yard - 5 dollars
For makin' my own bed this week - 1 dollar
Goin' to the store - 50 cents
Playin' with my sister while you went to the store - 25 cents
Takin' out the trash 1 dollar
Gettin' a good report card - 5 dollars
And for rakin' the yard - 2 dollars
Total owed 40 dollars and 75 cents

Well I looked at her standing there expectantly
And a thousand mem'ries flashed through my mind
And so I picked up the pen and turning the paper over
This is what I wrote

For the nine months I carried you growin' inside me - no charge
For the nights I sat up with you doctored and prayed for you - no charge
For the toys food and clothes and for wiping your nose - there's no charge
When you add it all up the full cost of my love is - no charge

Well when she finished readin' she had great big old tears in her eyes
And she looked up at me and said mommy I sure do love you
Then she took the pen and in great big letters she wrote
PAID IN FULL
When you add it all up the cost of real love is no charge

"No Future For Me In Our Past"

"No Future For Me In Our Past"


Word is around he walked out on you
And your world, it shattered like glass
I just found out that you're back in town
And searching for parts of your past.

You loved and lost, I lost and found
A new love I know will last
If you're hoping to find what you've left behind
There's no future for me in our past.

I know you're hurt and what you're going through
I want what's hurting for you
But there's not one thing in my past I can change
Even if I wanted to.

You loved and lost, I lost and found
A new love I know will last
But you're hoping to find what you've left behind
And there's no future for me in our past.

There's no future for me in our past.

"No Money In This Deal"

"No Money In This Deal"


Well, I can meet you on the street
And I'll stop and talk to you
You can walk around the block
And I will walk around it too.

But you can sit down in the park
Do some lovin' in the dark
But to me you don't appeal
Cause there ain't no money in this deal.

Now you might say to me let's eat
I might say my name is Pete
And you say that yours is Joy
But I know it could be Loy.

We can go ahead and fill
A life that isn't real
Later I might say I'm Bill
Cause there ain't no money in this deal.

Well, if you want me dear
Come and get me I'll be here
And I will marry you
If you say that you will do.

Anything I say until
You buy me an automobile
But I won't stay with you still
There's some money in this deal.

Well, then she turned around and said
She'd rather be dead
Than to see me spend her money
When I ain't never called her honey.

And then for her thrill
She already got her fill
Told me to go find another
Cause there ain't no money in this deal.

I mean it baby there's no money in this deal

Sweetheart, did you think I'd be untrue
Did you think I'd ever cheat on you

Or that I'd ever change my mind
No, no, no, no never
Oh, won't you be my little wife
Let me love you all my life
Cause don't you know I'm inclined
I want your lovin' all time
Sweetheart, did you think I'd be untrue
Did you think I'd ever cheat on you
No, no, no, no never

Sweetheart, did you think the sun would shine
If I couldn't have you all the time
No, no, no, no never
Sweetheart, did you think I'd ever try
Do you think I'd ever make you cry
No, no, no, no never
Well, won't you be my little wife
And let me love you all my life
Cause you know that I'm inclined
I want your lovin' all the time
Sweetheart did you think it would make you blue
To treat me as sweetly as you do
No, no, no, no never

Sweetheart, did you think it would make you blue
To treat me as sweetly you do

"No Use To Cry"

"No Use To Cry"


No use to cry don't even try to stop yourself from being lonely
I'm leaving you so you'll be blue a long long time
You thought you were smart to break a heart that love no one but you dear only
I'm gonna do your heart the same way you did mine
I'll board the train I won't explain just why the reason is I'm lately
Cause you'll know why but not to cry just wait and see
I gave you a home you done me wrong I tried so very hard to please you
Well it's goodbye no use to cry it's gotta be
You'll never win so think again before you do the same thing over
There's not a man that ever can believe your lies
Go right ahead and wish you was dead keep all your love deep undercover
Then when he's gone and you're alone no use to cry

"Noah And The Ark"

"Noah And The Ark"


Well old Noah picked up a hammer and said
I need a lot of gopher wood
I'mma going to build myself an ark
Cause there's going to be a flood
Well he worked and told everybody get ready
Or you're going to drown
And when he got it build he said, "Load up!"
Before the rain comes a pouring down

He loaded two of a kind of everything that lived
On earth and then he closed the door
His wife went along and beared three sons
And their wives were all on board
Well the water destroyed everything on earth
Noah told the men he's not to blame
For 40 long days and nights it fell
And don't you know it was a mighty rain

Well the water was deeper than the trees
And the web of the highest hill
They sailed along for days and days
Till at last the ark stood still
Then Noah opened up a window wide
sent a dove to look about
He knew there was land when the dove returned
With an olive leaf in his mouth

He loaded two of a kind of everything that lived
On earth and then he closed the door
His wife went along and beared three sons
And their wives were all on board
Well the water destroyed everything on earth
Noah told the men he's not to blame
For 40 long days and nights it fell
And don't you know it was a mighty rain

Well don't you know it was a mighty rain
Don't you know it was a mighty rain

"Not What I Had In Mind"

"Not What I Had In Mind"


Just thought I'd have a little fun and paint the town
I always said someday I'll walk the line
But now she's gone and I'm the bluest guy around
And that's not exactly what I had in mind

I thought that I could play the field and be a clown
I broke the heart that loved me many times
Yes, I know that I'm the biggest fool in town
And that's not exactly what I had in mind

I didn't mean for things to get so out of hand
I always meant to make it up in time
But now she's gone, she hates the very sight of me
And that's not exactly what I had in mind

I told myself, "Go play around you're young and free"
Too late I found that I was oh so blind
I lost a love I never did deserve at all
But that's not exactly what I had in mind
No, that's not exactly what I had in mind
