"Woman Shy"

"Woman Shy"



You say you ain't never met a man quite like me
And you gonna love me for the rest of your life
You even talkin' bout startin' a family
Settlin' down becomin' my little wife

Well I've been fed that line before
And I can't digest that kinda talk anymore
You guessed it honey I'm tellin' you bye bye bye
Cause I'm just a little bit woman shy

The last three women I cared anything about
They all lied to me and told me the same old thing
With one I made a whole lot of plans
Hired a preacher rented a church and bought a big ole diamond ring

But I got to the church what did I find
She'd made off with the preacher and that diamond ring of mine
Well that's one reason why
This old boy's still a little bit woman shy

Mhm I'm a woman shy woman shy
I'd like to fall in love but I'm afraid to try
Cause I'm a woman shy woman shy
Everyone I ever loved told me a lie

But honey you've done wonders for my vanity
And your sweet love has soothed my manly pride
A gal like you could make me lose my sanity
If you'd just half way give it a try

So I better run cause it's plain to see
I hang around here you'll get your hooks into me
But if I ever marry you're the one I'm gonna try
But right now I'm just a little bit woman shy

Yes I'm a woman shy woman shy
I'm just a little bit woman shy mhm yeah

"Workin' At The Carwash Blues"

"Workin' At The Carwash Blues"



Well I had just got out from the county prison
Doin' ninety days for non-support
Tried to find me an executive position
But no matter how smooth I talked
They wouldn't listen to the fact that I was a genius
The man said we got all that we can use
Now I got them steadily depressin' low down mind messin'
Workin' at the car wash blues

Well I should be sittin' in some air-conditioned
Office in a swivel chair
Talkin' me some trash to the secretaries
Sayin' hey honey come on over here
Instead I'm stuck here rubbin' these fenders with a rag
And walkin' home in soggy old shoes
With them steadily depressin' low down mind messin'
Workin' at the car wash blues

You know a man of my ability
He should be smokin' on a big cigar
But till I get myself straight I guess I'll just have to wait
In my rubber suit a rubbin' these cars

Well all I can do is a shake my head
Cause you might not believe that it's true
For workin' at this end of Niagara Falls
Is an undiscovered Howard Hughes
So baby don't expect to see me with no double martini
In any high-brow society news
Cause I got them steadily depressin' low down mind messin'
Workin' at the car wash blues

I got them steadily depressin' low down mind messin'
Workin' at the car wash blues

"You Can't Keep Me Here In Tennessee"

"You Can't Keep Me Here In Tennessee"



By the time we left Kentucky all that was on my mind
Was the way I've spent my trouble like a dime
When we got back to Nashville things were still the same
Lord my thought went back to Texas and I hoped to ease the pain

Cause you fall like a tree when you're cut down
And you been too long hackin' away at me
Well it's a long long road I'm takin' back to Texas
Cause you can't keep me here in Tennessee

Well in all my looking at you
It's funny all the things I've never seen Lord
Cause the sun don't shine beside you
Least wise it ain’t never shone on me shone on me

Cause you fall like a tree when you're cut down...

Well my mind's been in a dungeon
A prison in a world of make believe make believe
And I'm a beggin' for your pardon
I've served my time and so now I'll take my leave take my leave

Cause you fall like a tree when you're cut down...
Yes you fall like a tree when you're cut down...

"You Don't Mess Around With Jim"

"You Don't Mess Around With Jim"



Well now uptown got its hustlers the bowery's done got its bums
42nd Street got big Jim Walker he's a pool shootin' son of a gun
Yeah he's big and he's dumb as any man can come but he's stronger than a country horse
And when the bad folks all get together at night you know they all call big Jim Boss
Just because

And they say you don't tug on Superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off that ol' Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Jim

Well outta south Alabama come a country boy he said I'm lookin' for a man named Jim
I'm a pool shootin' boy my name is Willy McCoy but down home they call me Slim
Yeah I'm lookin' for the King of 42nd Street he drive a drop top Cadillac
Last week he took my money and it may sound funny but I come to get my money back

And everybody said hey Jack don't you know that
You don't tug on Superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull that mask off the ol' Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Jim

Well a hush fell over that pool room Jimmy come boppin' in off the street
And when the cuttin' was done the only part that wasn't bloody was the soles on the big man's feet
He was cut in about a hundred places and he was shot in a couple more
And you better believe they sung a different kind of story when big Jim hit the floor
And now they say

You don't tug on Superman's cape
And you don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off that ol' Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Slim

Yeah you got it brother that big Jim he done got what left of his hat
And put it on what's left of his head and he hit the street

You don't tug on Superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off the ol' Lone Ranger
And you don't mess around with Slim

Not if you got a lick of sense you don't
You see what that little skinny fellow did to Jim
He beat his brains out I mean mostly outta his head
Say where'd Jim go anyway
Ah Jim left and went and got in his drop top Cadillac
Shoot Skinny done dunked his mop

"You Made My Life A Song"

"You Made My Life A Song"



Remember the day we first got together
You were the rage in silk and leather
You talked me into wearing my hair long
You never could do one thing without me
You told the world you were mad about me
And you made my life a song

Remember all the times we used to go walkin'
What about the nights we spent just talkin'
I really could count on you when everything went wrong
Whenever I thought I just couldn't take it
You were right there to help me make it
And you made my life a song

But now those days with you are suddenly gone
But there's so many good things to think about from now on
Like the crazy songs we composed
The movies at Loews your high fashioned clothes
The fun and the roses and you
And through it all you made my life a song

Well it's been so long since we've been together
But you'll be in my thoughts forever
I'll always have your memory to call my own
And if your new romance starts failin'
Honey come runnin' cause I'll be waitin'
Yes you made my life a song

Baby you made you made my life a song
You made my life a sweet and beautiful song
(You made my life a song)

"You Took All The Ramblin' Out Of Me"

"You Took All The Ramblin' Out Of Me"



You took all the ramblin' out of me girl
With the finest lovin' I ever done seen
Now all I wanna do is sit home and play my little guitar
And sing songs about all the places that I've seen

Your country loving and your country cooking
Done blowed my mind and set me free
You took away all my urge to roam
All I wanna do is just hang around home
Cause you took all the ramblin' out of me

How I wound up down here in Monroe
Is somethin' I'm never gonna figure out it's true
But your sweet love settled me down
Made me quit all my ramblin' around
Now all I wanna do is sit home and grow old with you

Last night I heard a freight train through my window
And I couldn't help thinkin' as I heard that whistle scream
How that old lonesome sound don't make me itch and want to move around
Because you took all the ramblin' out of me

You took all the ramblin' out of me girl...
Your country loving and your country cooking...
You took all the ramblin' out of me girl...

"You Wouldn't Know A Good Thing"

"You Wouldn't Know A Good Thing"



If you put your mind to it and you try just a little bit
Well I know you could be the biggest fool of the world
You had yourself quite a woman the kind you don't find everyday
And just like a fool son you love her get away
You wouldn't know good thing if it came around
You wouldn't know a good thing if it knocked you down hmm

I hate to say that you're a fool but there's gonna come a time when you'll
Curse the day you let her love slip through your hands
Waitin' till you try to find someone to take the place of her
That's when you'll find out son how big a fool you were
You wouldn't know good thing...

"You'd Better Take Time"

"You'd Better Take Time"



It looks like you're so busy climbing the ladder of fame
Making yourself a big name in this world
I guess that's all that matters you're so wrapped up in yourself
That you'd better take time for other girls not even your girl

But you'd better take time take time for your baby
Before somebody takes the time to take her from your hand
You'd better take time take time for your baby
Before somebody takes the time and leave you a lonely man

You left her get lonely you're so blinded by success
But you don't let her the loneliness bother you
But she needs love from someone si if you're never there
Well she might just learn to care for someone new

So you'd better take time take time for your baby...
