Behind Closed Doors

Behind Closed Doors

My baby makes me proud Lord don't he makes me proud
He never makes a scene by hanging onto me in a crowd
Cause people like to talk Lord don't they love to talk
But when they turn out the lights I know he'll be leavin' with me
And when we get behind closed doors and I let my hair hang down
And he makes me glad that I'm a woman
Oh no one knows what goes on behind closed doors
[ steel ]
My baby makes me smile Lord don't he make me smile
He's never far away or too tired to say ah honey I want you
I'm always a lady just like a lady should be
But when they turn out the lights I show 'em what a woman I can be
And when we get behind closed doors...
Behind closed doors

Best Years Of My Life

Best Years Of My Life

Thank goodness for the curtains that I draped around the windows in my room
They keep the sun from shinin' through so it won't find me here in all my gloom
My eyes're red and swollen from the tears that baby's leavin' me as left
I haven't got the heart to go out to face the world alone just yet
God knows I'm just as empty as the closet where he used to hang his clothes
And passin' by that mirror I see ten years of my life just come and go
The radio is playin' some old song that baby used to sing to me
And in between my heartbeats Lord I think about the way it used to be
I tied the best years of my life around his love
Passin' my world to his and gave my heart the cause
I believed him everything is sad I thought that how it was
I tied the best years of my life around his love

I crossed the bridge of mem'ry
Where the grass was green and his sweet dream was mine
But all about is over now he's broken all those precious ties that bind
I tied the best years of my life...

Big Sister Little Sister

Big Sister Little Sister

(Give up to the baby that's what they'd always say)
And big sister would let her path away
We shared a sandbox little sister and me I was her big sister and she was only three
Give up to the baby that's what they'd always say
And big sister would let her path away
All through our childhood and our high school days
My little sister always had to have her way
Now I can't hurt the baby and I can't let him go
Be brave big sister this time and say no
Now all that I remember as they drove out of sight
Just married and her holdin' the ones I love so tight
Now all I do is rock my darling I just can't let her cry
So rock a bye baby rock a bye
Give up to the baby and I'd lose every time
Now they're saying big sister is losin' her mind

Blue Christmas

Blue Christmas

I'll have a blue Christmas without you I'll be so blue thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree
Won't mean a thing dear if you're not here with me
I'll have a blue Christmas that's certain
And when those blue heartaches start hurtin'
You'll be doing all right with your Christmas of white
But I'll have a blue blue Christmas
[ piano ]
And when those blue snowflakes start falling
That's when those blue heartaches start calling
You'll be doing all right...

Blue Kentucky Girl

Blue Kentucky Girl

You left me for the bright lights of the town a country boy sat out to see the world
Remember when those city lights shine down
That big old moon shines on your Kentucky girl
I swear I love you by the moon above you how bright is it shinin' in your world
Some mornings when you wake up all alone
Just come on home to your blue Kentucky girl
[ banjo ]
Don't waste to bring great riches home to me I need no diamond rings or fancy pearls
Just bring yourself you're all I'll ever need
That's good enough for this blue Kentucky girl
I swear I love you by stars...

Blueberry Hill

Blueberry Hill

I found my thrill on Blueberry Hill on Blueberry Hill when I found you
The moon stood still on Blueberry Hill yeah and linger until my dreams came true
Though wind in the willows plays love's sweet melody
But all of those vows you've made were never to be
Though we're apart you're a part of me still
For you are my thrill mhm on Blueberry Hill Blueberry Hill
Though wind in the willows...

Boy Like You

Boy Like You

There's a jukebox in my ear playing so loud I can hardly hear
It's tellin' a story about a boy like you
And each selection that I make tells me how my heart will break
For falling in love with a boy like you
Though it's just an old machine without a heart but oh so mean
It says I probably spend my whole life feeling blue
So I'll put in one more dime and play that same song one more time
Cause I wanna hear about a boy like you
[ piano ]
Though it's just an old machine without a heart but oh so mean
It says I probably spend my whole life feeling blue
I know that I should go on home but I can't stand to be alone
Cause I always dream about a boy like you
Yes I always dream about a boy like you

Bring Some Of It Home

Bring Some Of It Home

Today is payday and the night will be long
Don't sit at the bar till all your money is gone
The baby get hungry when you drink too long
So remember bring some of it home
Honey you know I'm jealous cause you're all my man
I know you get restless but I understand
Ah but darlin' I'm as precious so before they're not gone
Think of me and bright some of it home
[ piano ]
Tonight when the barmate sits down on your knees
I know that it's easy to say that you're free
When your love apetite starts coming on strong
Don't forget me bring some of it home
Honey you know I'm jealous...
I need lovin' and bright some of it home

Bye Bye Love

Bye Bye Love
(originally by The Everly Brothers)

Bye, bye love, bye, bye happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm a gonna cry
Bye, bye my love, bye, bye.

There goes my baby with someone new
She sure looks happy and I sure am blue
She was my baby till he stepped in
Goodbye to romance that might have been.

Bye, bye love, bye, bye happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm a gonna cry
Bye, bye love, bye, bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness I feel like I could die.
Bye, bye my love, bye, bye.

Well, I'm through with you Conway, I'm through with love
Yeah, I'm through with countin' the stars above
And here's the reason that I'm so free
My lovin' baby is through with me.

Bye, bye love, bye, bye happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm a gonna cry
Bye, bye love, bye, bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness I feel like I could die.
Bye, bye my love, bye, bye.

Bye bye love bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness, I think I'm a gonna cry
Bye, bye love, bye, bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness I feel like I could die.
Bye, bye my love, bye, bye...

Christmas Without Daddy

Christmas Without Daddy

Christmas Day is getting closer but there's sadness mixed with joy
Every day a few more questions from our little girl and boy
Not alone but there'll be lonely for their daddy won't be here
And just like the air at Christmas there'll be a chill upon the chill
Christmas without daddy will be such a lonesome day
We'll send a prayer and all our love to you so far away
Your son just wrote to Santa asked him to send you home
Yes Christmas without daddy we'll be blue and all alone
[ steel ]
Christmas without daddy I don't know what we're gonna do
On the present from your baby she wrote daddy I love you
Your son just wrote to Santa asked him to send you home
Yes Christmas without daddy we'll be blue and all alone
