"Claudette"


Well, well, hey hey yeah now...
I got a brand-new baby and I feel so good
She loves me even better than I thought she would
I'm on my way to her house and I'm plumb out of breath
When I see her tonight, I'm gonna squeeze her to death

Claudette, pretty little pet
Claudette, never make me fret, Claudette
She's the sweetest little girl that I've ever met
Got the best love that I'll ever get from Claudette
Pretty little pet Claudette

Well I'm a lucky man My baby treats me right
She's gonna let me hug and kiss and hold her tight
When the date is over and we're at her front door
When she kiss me goodnight I'll holler "More, more, more!"

Claudette, pretty little pet, Claudette
Never make me fret, Claudette

Greatest little girl that I've ever met
Got the best love that I'll ever get from Claudette Oh, oh, Claudette Yea, Yeah, Claudette

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

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


I 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 your 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
Made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is paying now
For things I didn't do

In anger unkind words are said
That makes the teardrops start
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold cold heart?

There was a time when I believed
That you belonged to me
But now I know your heart is shackled
To a memory

The more I learn to care for you
The more we drift apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold cold heart?

"Come Back To Me (My Love)"

"Come Back To Me (My Love)"


Bum bum bum da de da oh oh oh yeah yeah
Bum bum bum da de da ah come back to me my love
Come back to me

16 years ago today early one Sunday morn
Just before the break of day a cute little girl was born
From that very moment on her life's been gay and free
Laughing eyes and loving ways as sweet as she could be

Bum bum bum da de da oh oh oh yeah yeah
Bum bum bum da de da ah come back to me my love
Come back to me

We had a quarrel I can't forget the night I made her cry
Her tender heart just fell apart as she said good-bye
Now today is her birthday my baby's sweet 16
But someone else is in my place to hold my every dream
Bum bum bum da de da oh oh oh yeah yeah
Bum bum bum da de da ah come back to me my love
Come back to me

"Coming Home"

"Coming Home"


It's a long and lonely highway.
When you're traveling all alone.
I was on my way to nowhere.
But now I'm coming home.
I'm coming home.

I've been running through the fire.
I've been running for so long.
If I took it any higher.
Baby I would be still be gone.

And now I'm coming home,
Coming home.
I'm coming home.
I'm coming home, coming home
Coming home.

Well my home was really never.
On a far and distant shore.
If I stayed away forever.
I could never miss you more.

And so I'm coming home, coming home.
I'm coming home.
I'm coming home,coming home,
Coming home.

I think of all these years gone by.
Never even wondered why.
I never touched the ground.
All the time that's come and gone.
All the nights I've been alone.
And now I'm homeward bound.

I heard the thunder over Canaan.
And I heard the angels cry.
And their voices came revealing
As you live, so will you die.

I'm coming home, coming home,
I'm coming home.
I'm coming home, coming home,
Coming home.

"Communication Breakdown"

"Communication Breakdown"


We never walk
We never talk
We never find the time To be close again
There it goes again
Communication breakdown
Communication breakdown

Too much concern for money to burn
Too many things to do Now you don't need me
And I don't need you
Communication breakdown
Communication breakdown

One by one They fail Now the leaves our lover
Cling to the ground
Communication breakdown
Communication breakdown

Too much too soon Too much temptation
In a hurry It's a sad situation
Too much worry I can tell Well it's over now
Communication breakdown
Communication breakdown

There it goes
Communication breakdown
Communication breakdown

When it's right, it's all right
When it's wrong, it's all wrong
When it's gone, it's all gone
It's too late
Communication breakdown
Communication breakdown
I can tell Well it's over now

Communication breakdown
Communication breakdown

"Crawling Back"

"Crawling Back"


Only you and no one else
Can keep me crawling back
You know I cant help myself
And now I'm crawling back

After all you've done to me
The times you've turned me down
I still will be your clown
Because I love you
I'm crawling back

You know I would die for you
Heaven knows how I have cried for you
But what else can I do
But crawl on back to you, ooh
Crawling back to you

People stop they talk and they stare
But they don't know that you really care
That you're only lonely, and making believe
And you need me around
When the world turns you down

Whenever you might need me
I will come crawling back
Wherever you will lead me
I will come crawling back

"Cry"

"Cry"


If your sweetheart sends a letter of goodbye
It's no secret you'll feel better if you cry
When waking from a bad dream
Don't you sometimes think it's real?
But it's only false emotions that you feel

If your heartaches seem to hang around too long
And your blues keep getting bluer with each song
Remember sunshine can be found behind a cloudy sky
So let your hair down and go on and cry

 

[fox69]

"Cry Softly, Lonely One"

"Cry Softly, Lonely One"


Cry softly lonely one
It's over, it's said, it's done
Don't let your heart break down
He's not the only one
So you're blue, and lonely too
Don't fall apart
And when the teardrops start
You can cry, cry to me girl
Cry, cry to me girl
I'll be standing by
I will dry your eyes
But for now, cry softly lonely one

Cry softly lonely one
Your heartaches have just begun
And though they linger on
Carry on, be strong

You're baby's gone, left you alone
But I'll stand by you
On the long nights through
You can cry, cry to me girl
C'mon and cry, cry to me girl

From this moment on
Don't cry all alone
You can run to me, come to me
You can cry to me
Tonight and forever, lonely one

"Crying"

"Crying"


I was all right for awhile
I could smile for awhile
But I saw you last night
You held my hand so tight
As you stopped to say, "Hello"

Oh, you wished me well
You, you couldn't tell
That I'd been crying over you
Crying over you

When you said, "So long"
Left me standing all alone
Alone and crying, crying
Crying, crying

It's hard to understand
But the touch of your hand
Can start me crying

I thought that I was over you
But it's true, so true
I love you even more
Than I did before

But, darling, what can I do?
For you don't love me
And I'll always be crying over you
Crying over you

Yes, now you're gone
And from this moment on
I'll be crying, crying
Crying, crying
Yeah, crying, crying
Over you

[Roy:] I was all right for a while
I could smile for a while
[KD:] THEN I saw you last night
You held my hand so tight
WHEN you stopped to say hello
[Roy:] You wished me well
You couldn't tell that
I've been crying over you,
crying over you
And you said "So long"
Left me standing all alone, alone and crying, crying, crying, crying
It's hard to understand
But the touch of your hand can start me crying

I thought that I was over you But it's true, so true
I love you even more than I did before
But darling, what can I do?
For you don't love me
And I'll always be crying over you, crying over you

Yeah, crying, crying over you
