"Tired Old Country Song"

"Tired Old Country Song"

Another day, another night
Another tired old country song
You know, I sing of love delight
But I know it's all wrong

The life I live out on the road
Is one I swear no one could love
Yet I feel I must go on
And sing this tired
This tired old Country song

I move around from place to place
But all the towns look just the same
I see the same old face
Losin' still my claim to fame

I'll sing the guitar blues
Drink my drink and pay the dues
Then I guess I'll ramble on
And sing this tired
This tired old country song

Why did I have to compromise
To reach my piece of the fame?
Life could have been so different
In that eight to five game

So I guess I'll settle down
Get my feet back on the ground
Once a country star
Now I'm just a country clown

Hang my guitar on the wall
I won't need it anymore
For I think the time has come
To end this tired
This tired old country song
To end this tired
This tired old country song

"Too Soon To Know"
(originally by Don Gibson)

"Too Soon To Know"
(originally by Don Gibson)

It's too soon to know if I can forget her
My heart's been broken in too many pieces
And It's too soon to know

Time passes slow will I ever know
If I can forget her and not let it show
But it's too soon to know

News travels fast when a love affair ends
People keep asking what happened to them

But it's too soon to know it I can forget her
My heart's been broken in too many pieces
And It's too soon to know
My heart's been broken in too many pieces
And It's too soon to know

"Truly, Truly True"

"Truly, Truly True"

I love you I do.
I love you truly truly true.
Truly true.
If the world should end today, I could say.
At least I've had my day with you.
Truly true.
Truly baby, I love you
Truly, truly, truly true.

And for some the world may end.
But for us it will begin again and again.
Truly true, I love you I do.
I love you truly truly true.
Truly true.

"Try To Remember"

"Try To Remember"

Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh so mellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain so yellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When you were a young and a callow fellow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow - follow, oh-oh

Try to remember when life was so tender
That no one wept except the willow
Try to remember when life was so tender
That dreams were kept beside your pillow
Try to remember when life was so tender
That love was an ember about to billow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow - follow, oh-oh

Deep in December it's nice to remember
Although you know the snow will follow
Deep in December it's nice to remember
Without a hurt, the heart is hollow
Deep in December it's nice to remember
The fire of September that made you mellow
Deep in December our hearts should remember
Then follow - follow, oh-oh

Follow, oh-oh

"Twenty Two Days"

"Twenty Two Days"

Oh it's been 22 lonely blue days without a word from you
And 44 million more tears I've cried since you walked through that door
The sun never reaches my doorstep each empty day seems to be the same
You've broken your vow but I still love you now, oh this love of mine is a one way losing game

And it's been 22 lonely blue days without a word from you
And 44 million more tears I've cried since you walked through that door
The dreams that we share are gone forever but I still have a little hope in my heart
Is this the way it ends? Are we to be both friends? Oh I can't go on if we're to be apart

And it's been 22 lonely blue days without a word from you
And 44 million more tears I've cried since you walked through that door

Yeah 22 days since you walked through that door
Ah 22 days since you walked through that door
Yeah 22 days since you walked through that door
Mmmm 22 days since you walked through that door

"Twinkle Toes"

"Twinkle Toes"

Hey boys, gather round boys, the money's right
Go down to low town for me tonight
Walk onto forty four and knock on that big black door
Lay some money on that man
And get the very best table you can

Well,there's a soul band's wailing behind the beat,
And they cook when the blue lights spin.
There's a "go-go girl"? yeah,
She works it out,now.
Look when you walk in,
Yeah, yeah, yeah,yeah.
Everybody knows
To see her dance,now
My Twinkle Toes.

And you know you do it right.

You're look in good tonight,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Dance on and on, now.

Yeah, but Twinkle Toes,
I know you're trying
To hide your broken heart;
You act so gay.
Yeah,behind the smile,
I know you're crying.
Your big great lonely eyes
Give you away.
Hey, hey,hey.
Hey, hey ,hey.

Twinkle Toes,
You know you must hang on, girl.
Hang on tight;
Don't let your feelings show.
Twinkle Toes,
You know you must dance on,girl.
If you work it right,
They'll never know.

But every thing's all right.

"Two Of A Kind"

"Two Of A Kind"

They say we're searching for love we'll never find
They say we're foolish kids we're two of a kind.

We know we've found our love when your lips meet mine
That's when we know they're right we're two of a kind.

No matter what they say when it's all said and done
When we are old enough we two will be one.

And when they pass me by with your hand in mine
Then they'll just smile and say they're two of a kind.

No matter what they say when it's all said and done
When we are old enough we two will be one.

And when they pass me by with your hand in mine
Then they'll just smile and say they're two of a kind.

"Unchained Melody"

"Unchained Melody"

Oh, my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch, a long lonely time
And time goes by, so slowly and time can do so much
Are you, still mine?
I need your love, I need your love
God speed your love to me.

Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the waiting arms of the sea
Lonely rivers cry, wait for me, wait for me
I'll be coming home, wait for me.

Oh, my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch, a long lonely time
And time goes by, so slowly and time can do so much
Are you, still mine?
I need your love, I need your love
God speed your love to me.

"Under Suspicion"

"Under Suspicion"

Well I've been mistreated
Lied to and cheated
Misled and abused
Like an old rag you threw away

First you fill me with thunder
Then you let me go under
You can run, you can hide
But you ain't gonna get away

Cos you're under suspicion
Of leavin' the scene of a broken heart
Under suspicion of a hit and run love affair

Well you ain't got a conscience
And you've made me the victim
Of a cruel and unusual crime
Now you're under suspicion, under suspicion
Under suspicion of a hit and run love affair

No matter where you'll be going
I got ways of knowing
Somewhere down the line
You're gonna pay

Cos you're under suspicion
Of leavin' the scene of a broken heart
Under suspicion of a hit and run love affair

Well you ain't got a conscience
And you've made me the victim
Of a cruel and unusual crime
Now you're under suspicion, under suspicion
Under suspicion of a hit and run love affair

Under suspicion, under suspicion
Under suspicion, under suspicion...
