"Old King Kong"

"Old King Kong"

Well old King Kong was a hell of'va gorilla
He stood four stories tall
They shot him with missles from aeroplanes
But he refused to fall
With Faye Ray in the palm of his hand
He'll walk right over the world
'Cause just like me he would do anything
Just to keep his girl

Yeah, old King Kong was just a little monkey
Compared to my love for you
If you treat right, every night
And to do what you wanted to
I said it's bigger than both of us
And now you know it's true
Old King Kong was just a little monkey
Compared to my love for you

Now when King Kong met Godzilla
He made that lizard crawl
It wasn't until he put his woman down
That she saw those big tears fall
And when you're walking next to me
I swear I can fill his shoes
Old King Kong was just a litttle monkey
Compared to my love for you

Yeah, old King Kong was just a little monkey
Compared to my love for you
If you treat right, every night
And to do what you wanted to
I said it's bigger than both of us
And now you know it's true
Old King Kong was just a little monkey
Compared to my love for you

Old King Kong was just a litttle monkey
Compared to my love for you...

"Old Old House"

"Old Old House"

There's an old old house that once was a mansion
On a hill overlookin' the own
Where time's left a wreck where once was a beauty
And soon the old house will tumble down

When the leaves begin to fall in the autumn
And the raindrops drip from the trees
There's an old old man who walks in the garden
And his head is bowed in memory.

They say he built the mansion for the love of a woman
And they planned to be married in the fall
But her love withered in the last days of summer
And the house stands empty after all.

"On Second Thought"

"On Second Thought"

I just lost the one in life that was my everything
Someone I took for granted cause she was here
Now what have I done to make her hate me so
But on second thought what have I done to make her care

I never treated her like she was something special
Although my heart knows she really is
But she can't see how I feel if I don't show it
And on second thought I guess I never did

I never treated her like she was something special
Although my heart knows she really is
But she can't see how I feel if I don't show it
And on second thought I guess I never did

And on second thought I guess I never did

"On The Back Row"

"On The Back Row"

Here I sit on the back row in a church down the street
Not to far from the place where we used to meet
And to find me gettin' though till you found someone to love
But I'll go back to the place that I keep thinking of.

It's not a fancy place just a tavern in the lonely part of town
Where lonely people find someone that hopes to settle down
They tell me to go and I can't understand
Here I sit on the back row while you wed another man.

You'd never dream but after many years I may still be sittin' there
With just a bottle and two glasses right next to your favorite chair
All alone you might not give him and he might tell you wrong
There I'll sit in a tavern waitin' for you all alone.

And it's not a fancy place just a tavern in the lonely part of town
Where lonely people find someone and hopes to settle down
They tell me to go and I can't understand
Here I sit on the back row while you wed another man

"On The Other Hand"

"On The Other Hand"

On one hand I count the reasons I could stay with you
And hold you close to me, all night long.
So many lover's games I could play with you
and on that hand I see no reason why it's wrong

But on the other hand, there's a golden band
To remind of someone who would not understand
On one hand I could stay and be your loving man
But the reason I must go is on the other hand

In your arms I feel the passion, I thought had died
When I looked into your eyes I found myself
When I first kissed your lips I felt so alive
I've got to hand it to you girl, you're something else

But on the other hand, there's a golden band
To remind of someone who would not understand
On one hand I could stay and be your loving man
But the reason I must go is on the other hand

"Once A Day"

"Once A Day"

When you found somebody new, I thought I never would
Forget you for I don't think, I ever could
But time has takin' all the pain, away
Until now, I'm down to hurtin' once a day.

Once a day, all day long
And once at night from dusk to dawn
The only part I wish you weren't gone
Once a day, everyday day, all day long.

I'm so glad that I'm not like a friend I knew one time
He lost the one he loved then slowly lost his mind
He set around and cried his life away
Lucky me. I've only cried once a day.

Once a day, all day long
And once at night from dusk to dawn
The only part I wish you weren't gone
Once a day, everyday day, all day long.

Once a day, everyday day, all day long...

"Once More"

"Once More"

Once more to be with you dear just for tonight to hold you tight
Once more I'd give a fortune if I could see you once more
Forget (forget) the past (the past) this hurt can't last
So I don't want it to keep us apart
Your love (your love) I crave (I crave) I'll be I'll be your slave
If you'll just give me all of your heart
Once more to be with you dear...
Forget (forget) the past (the past)...

"Once You've Had The Best"

"Once You've Had The Best"

I'm so glad to have you back within these arms of mine
I can finally close my eyes and get some rest
Never once did I think of finding someone new
'Cause there's nothing better once you've had the best

You're the very thing they sing about in love songs
And one mistake don't mean you've failed the test
And as you lay beside me softly sleeping, this I know
There's nothing better once you've had the best

Within your arms I've had the best and I think the world should know
I don't care what you've said or done I'll always love you so
You've got more love in your little finger than all the rest
And there's nothing better once you've had the best
No there's nothing better once you've had the best

"One Has My Name (The Other Has My Heart)"

"One Has My Name (The Other Has My Heart)"

(One has my heart, the other has my name)

One has my name, the other has my heart
With one I'll remain, that's how my heartaches start
One has brown eyes, the other's eyes are blue
To one I am tied, to the other I am true.

One has my love, the other's only me
But what good is love to a heart that can't be free?
So I'll go on livin' my life just the same
Still one has my heart, the other has my name.

(So I'll go on livin' my life just the same)
(Still one has my heart, the other has my name)

If I could live over, my life I would change
The one who has my heart would also have my name...

"One Hell Of A Song"

"One Hell Of A Song"

They say if you look long enough you can find
Some good where there's bad, well, believe me I've tried
'Cause after you left me I had lots of time
But the only good thing I could find.

Is it sure makes one hell of a song
About hurting and going crazy and treating me wrong
There's nothing good about you being gone
But it sure makes one hell of a song.

You know I still look for you that keep hanging on
And even though all the reason I once had are gone
All that's left now is a heartache and an old guitar to hold
It's a small consolation I know.

But it sure makes one hell of a song
About hurting, going crazy and treating me wrong
There's nothing good about you being gone
But it sure makes one hell of a song.

It sure makes one hell of a song...
