"City Lights"

"City Lights"


A bright array of city lights as far as I can see
The great white way shines through the night for lonely guys like me
The cabaretes and honky tonks their flashing signs invite
A broken heart to lose itself in the glow of city lights
Lights that say forget her name in a glass of cherry wine
Lights that offer other girls for empty arms like mine
They paint a pretty picture of a world that's gay and bright
But it's just a mask of loneliness behind those city lights

The world was dark and God made stars to brighten up the night
Did the God who put those stars above make those city lights
Did he make a place for men to cry when things don't turn out right
Are we just supposed to run and hide behind those city lights
Lights that say forget her love in a different atmosphere
Lights that lure are nothing but a masquerade for tears
They paint a pretty picture but my arms can't hold them tight
And I just can't say I love you to a street of city lights

"Cold, Cold Heart"
(originally by Hank Williams)

"Cold, Cold Heart"
(originally by Hank Williams)



I've tried so hard, my dear, to show that you're my every dream
Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme
A memory from the lonesome past keeps us so far apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart?

Another love before my time had made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is paying dear for things he really didn't do
In anger, unkind words I said had make those teardrops start
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart?

You'll never know how much it hurts to see you sit and cry
You know I need, I want your love yet you're afraid to try
Why do you run and hide from life to try it just ain't smart?
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart?

"Cold, Cold Morning Light"

"Cold, Cold Morning Light"


Morning's come, passions gone
If this love was really strong
I'd want her now, the way I did last night
But deep inside me I'm just dealin'
With the same old guilty feelin'
'Cause things sure do look different
In the cold, cold morning light

Somewhere a lonely clock strikes four
I'll sneak up and out the door
She'll pretend that she's asleep
Till I'm out of sight
I'll go home, an' I'll sneak in
Tell a lie about where I've been
'Cause things sure do look different
In the cold, cold morning light

That's what makes it all so lonely

Is that even when I'm home
I know I'll see her again, tomorrow night
Thrill cheats, until we've had our fill
Call it love until
We see it for what it is
In the cold, cold morning light

Somewhere a lonely clock strikes four
I'll sneak up and out the door
She'll pretend that she's asleep
Till I'm out of sight
Then I'll go home, I'll sneak in
Tell lies 'bout where I've been
Things sure do look different
In the cold, cold morning light

Things sure do look different
In the cold, cold morning light

"Come As You Were"

"Come As You Were"


I'm giving a party tonight
With champagne and pink party lights
I hope you'll attend if you're free
Come as you were before you stopped loving me

The party is B.Y.O.L.
So bring your old love you once felt
Don't bother to R.S.V.P.
Just come as you were before you stopped loving me

If you're sorry you hurt me
Honey, you've seen the light
Do me a party favor
And love me tonight

My party, it would be such fun
If only you'll just say you'll come
If here is where you belong
Come as you were before you stopped loving me

Hey, hey, hey
Come as you were before you stopped loving me

"Come On In (And Make Yourself At Home)"

"Come On In (And Make Yourself At Home)"


If you're here 'cause you love me
And not just because things didn't work out with him
If you've had sweet dreams of me where we left off
Come on in, come on in
If you've come back forever and if you're sincere
If you'll be satisfied with one man
If you've got it together and you're bringing it here
Come on in, come on in
I've been missing the fire in your ocean green eyes
And the love words you whispered back then
And if you can still say them without telling lies
Come on in, come on in
It's the worst kind of hell when we're living apart
I don't think I can take it again
If you swear you won't break it, I'll open my heart
Come on in, come on in
Come on in, come on in

"Comin' Back For More"

"Comin' Back For More"


I keep on coming back for more every single time you hurt me
Knocking on your door begging you to let me in
I keep on swollowing my pride for a chance to be with you dear
Coming back for more knowing that I just can't win
You think I'd have sense enough to see the light of day
Instead of coming back for more why don't I stay away
But I keep coming back for more of the love you never gave me
Oh how blessed it is I keep on coming back for more

Yes you think ol' Jerry's had sense enough...

"Corrine Corrina"


Corrina, Corrina, where you been so long?
Corrina, Corrina, where you been so long?
Ain't had no lovin', girl, since you been gone

I love Corrina, tell the world I do
I love Corrina, tell the world I do
But I pray every night
Corrina will love me too

Oh, Corrina, Corrina
Corrina, Corrina
Corrina, Corrina
Corrina, I love you so

Oh, Corrina, Corrina
Corrina, Corrina
Corrina, Corrina
Corrina, I love you so

I left Corrina, 'way 'cross the sea
I left Corrina, 'way 'cross the sea
If you see that woman
Send her back to Jerry Lee

Oh, Corrina, Corrina
Corrina, Corrina
Corrina, Corrina
Corrina, I love you so

Oh, Corrina, Corrina
Corrina, Corrina
Corrina, Corrina
Corrina, I love you so

"Crazy Arms"
(originally by Ray Price)

"Crazy Arms"
(originally by Ray Price)



Now blue ain't the word for the way that I feel
And the storm's brewing in this heart of mine
This ain't no crazy dream I know that it's real
You're someone else's love now you're not mine

Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new
While my yearning heart keeps saying you're not mine
My troubled mind knows soon to another you'll be wed
And that's why I'm lonely all the time

Now take all those precious dreams I had for you and me
And take all the love I thought was mine
You know someday those crazy arms may hold somebody new
But honey I am going to be lonely every time

Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new
While my yearning heart keeps saying you're not mine
My troubled mind knows soon to another you'll be wed
And that's why I'm lonely all the time

"Dead Flowers"
(with Mick Jagger)

"Dead Flowers"
(with Mick Jagger)



Well when you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair
Talkin' to some rich folk that you know
Well I hope you won't see me in my ragged company
Well, you know I could never be alone

Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

Well when you're sitting back in your rose pink Cadillac
Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day
Ah, I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon
And another girl to take my pain away

Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the U.S. Mail
Say it with dead flowers in my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
No, I won't forget to put roses on your grave
