"That's When I Feel It"

"That's When I Feel It"



Fanny's washing the clothes I know think I'll give Mary Sue a call
I've cleaned the house there's nothing left to do
Gonna be another lonely night cause he's not here to hold me tight
The kids are on bed my day is through
Sometimes I wonder if he still loves me when it's come
He never fails to change my mind the minute he gets home
That's when I feel it his love the most
That's when he holds me holds me so close
That's when I know it because he shows it how much he loves me
Sometimes I wonder...
That's when I feel it...

"The Ceremony"

"The Ceremony"


[Man speaks:]
Dearly beloved, we are gathered together,
In the presence of God, and these witnesses,
To join this man and this woman in the bonds,
Of holy matrimony

Do you Tammy, take this man, George
To be your lawfully wedded husband,
To love and to cherish until death do you part?

[T.W. sings:]
I'll take this man and by him I'll stand
I promise that we'll never part
To him, I'll be true
There'll be no one new
From now, till death do us part

[Man speaks:]
And do you, George, take this woman, Tammy
To be your lawfully wedded wife,
To love and to cherish, until death do you part?

[G.J.:]
Yes I'll take this woman

She'll be mine forever
And I'll love her, with all of my heart

To have and to hold
My love won't grow cold
I promise, till death do us part

[Both sing:]
We'll take each other
From this day forward
Together, in sickness or health

United with love
We'll face life together
If we're poor or if we have wealth

For better or worst
You'll always come first
And no one can keep us apart

Yes, we take each other
Forsaking all others
Together, till death do us part

[Man speaks:]
I now pronounce you, man and wife.

"The Jet Set"
(with George Jones)

"The Jet Set"
(with George Jones)



By a fountain back in rome
I fell in love with you
In a small cafe in athens
You said you loved me too

And it was april in paris
When I first held you close to me
Rome, georgia
Athens, texas
And paris, tennessee

No we're not the jet set
We're the old chevrolet set
There's no riviera
In festus, missouri

And you won't find onasis

In mullinville, kansas
No, we're not the jet set
We're the old chevrolet set
But ain't we got love?

No we're not the jet set
We're the old chevrolet set
Our steak and martinis
Is draft beer with weiners

Our bach and tschaikowsky
Is haggard and husky
No we're not the jet set
We're the old chevrolet set
But ain't we got love?

No, we're not the jet set
We're the old chevrolet set
The jones and wynette set
Ain't the flamin' suzette set
Fades-
Our bach and tschaikowsky
Is haggard n'...[fades out]

"The Lovin' Kind"

"The Lovin' Kind"



Seems every time you come home that you never see
These lovin' arms that always wait so true
Your wonderin's like a fave you're always on the run
To sip the wine with women that don't love you
I guess it's been the romance that keeps your heart from longing
And keeps it on your mind that I'm the lovin' kind
I'm the lovin' kind
They can't feel like I feel when they're holdin' you
And way down deep I think you know I've tried
And they can't love like I love so I'll keep hanging on
And forget my part to keep you satisfied
I guess it's been the romance...

"The Phone Call"

"The Phone Call"



Hello who's speaking mama I didn't think it was you
I've had a hard time reaching you
Now mama don't start crying don't worry I'm all right you see
You know how he's mistreated me
If I'd stayed at home what would people say
After all that's happened it doesn't matter anyway
Mama your little girl gets lonely in a big old town like this
I wish I had my teddy bear to sleep with
But mama how are you yes I'll call you in a week or so my time is up I'll have to go
My time is up I'll have to go

"The Ways To Love A Man"

"The Ways To Love A Man"




There are so many ways to love a man and so many things to understand
And if there ever comes a time you decide to change your mind
I'll need a way to hold you and I can cause I'll know all the ways to love a man
But there's so many ways to lose a man so quickly he can slip through your hands
One little thing goes wrong then all at once he's gone
I'd have no way to hold him like I planned
It takes more than just one way to love a man
With my hands my heart anything I can find my child my home my soul and my mind
I'll know that I can hold him yes I can if I know all the ways to love a man

"The Wonders You Perfrom"

"The Wonders You Perfrom"



Oh Lord, you know that I'm not one to bother you with little thi-ings
And you and I have never been too-oo close
But we've always been on speakin' terms
I've watched you with doin' things
And tried to understand you more than most
No I haven't gone to church the way I ought to
But I always thought you knew in my own way I worshipped you
While even your own children doubt and fail to understand
The simple way you go about the things you do
I've seen the doubt upon the face of loved ones
As they sadly placed a wreath of flowers on a tiny grave
And wondered why a child is brought into the world
To only live a little while and die, you could have saved
But I believe that in your eyes this little child was somethin' special
And you wanted it to be with you, no doubt
So with out-stretched arms you beckoned it so simple that I reckon
They can't understand the way you worked it out
Once I saw a young man growin' till he neared the age of knowin'
Then I watched as somethin' happened to his mind
No doctor could correct it, it was just as I suspected
And I marvelled at your way of bein' kind
They tried everything in vain and I was there when they explained it
To the family, how he slipped into a trance
Guess you looked into the future, watched him turn his back upon you
Lovin' him so much you couldn't take the chance
It took a lot of love to die, for sinners such as I
And I guess that's why you've never given up on me
You understood when some denied you and even when they crucified you
Knowin' all these things were meant to be-ee
For the stable's such a simple thing, no wonder there were few who came
To see a king the night that you were born
And I'd ask one favor if I can, help me to better understand
The mystery of the wonders You perform, Amen

"There Goes My Everything"

"There Goes My Everything"



I hear footsteps slowly walking as they gently walk across a lonely floor
And a voice that's softly saying darling this will be goodbye forever more
There goes my reason for living there goes the one of my dreams
There goes my only possesion there goes my everything

As my mem'ry turns back the pages I can see the happy years we had before
And the love that kept this cold heart beating
Has been shattered by the closing of a door
There goes my reason for living...

"There Is No Heart So Strong"

"There Is No Heart So Strong"



Maybe I didn't cry when you first told me a lie
Maybe I thought it would be a big mistake
I knew teardrops wouldn't help so I kept them to myself
But there's no heart so strong it will not break

When I called you on the phone, found that you were not alone
You never knew it was hard for me to take
‘Cause I tried my best to hide the hurt I felt inside
There's no heart so strong it will not break

There's no heart so strong that it can hold its own
When loneliness is more than it can take
You might admire my strength but don't you ever, ever think
There's a heart so strong it will not break

If she ever lets you go then I'm sure that you will know
There's no heart so strong it will not break
There's no heart so strong it will not break

"There's No Use Hanging On"

"There's No Use Hanging On"


I might as well just hang it up
There's no use hanging on

If I felt that we could work things out
I'd stay and talk it over
But I can say that love and feeling's gone
Love and feeling's gone

Your memory brings me right back here
Your silence makes me leave in tears
So I might as well just hang it up
There's no use hanging on

Hanging on would only bring me sorrow
So I'll just say goodbye, then I'll be gone
I've grown [?] to have you near
I don't know what on earth I'll do
But I might as well just hang it up
There's no use hanging on

Hanging on would only bring me sorrow
So I'll just say goodbye, then I'll be gone
I've loved you for a long, long time
I guess you'll never leave my mind
But I might as well just hang it up
There's no use hanging on

I might as well just hang it up
There's no use hanging on
