"After The Fire Is Gone"
(with George Jones)



[Both]
Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there's nothin' cold as ashes
After the fire is gone.

[George]
The bottle is almost empty
The clock just now struck ten
Darlin' I had to call you
To our favorite place again.

[Tammy]
I know it's wrong for us to meet
But the fires gone out at home
[Both]
And there' nothin' cold as ashes
After the fire is gone.

Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there's nothin' cold as ashes
After the fire is gone.

[Tammy]
Your lips are warm and tender
Your arms hold me just right
Sweet words of love you remember
That the one at home forgot.

[George]
Each time we say it's the last time
But we keep hangin' on
[Both]
And there's nothin' cold as ashes
After the fire is gone.

Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home
And there's nothin' cold as ashes
After the fire is gone...

"Alive And Well"

"Alive And Well"



I wish my love for you,
Could die the way that your love did for me.
I wish that I could lay to rest,
The memory of how good it used to be.
If I could, I'd take a gun,
Aim it at the past and shoot to kill.
Instead I lay here every night,
And all my love for you is still:

Alive and well,
And in the best of health.
Although it's been through hell,
Since you left, it hasn't shown one sign of giving up.
It still won't let me love nobody else.
My love for you is still alive and well.

I didn't know that love,
Could ever live this long all by itself.
And keep on feeling just as strong.
As it was feeling on the day you left.
In this cold and lonely bed,
The memory should die just from the chill.
But it stays warm inside my heart,
'Cos all my love for you is still:

Alive and well,
And in the best of health.
Although it's been through hell,
Since you left, it hasn't shown one sign of giving up.
It still won't let me love nobody else.
My love for you is still alive and well.

Since you left, it hasn't shown one sign of giving up.
It still won't let me love nobody else.
My love for you is still alive and well.

My love for you is still alive and well.

"All I Have To Offer You Is Me"
(with George Jones)

"All I Have To Offer You Is Me"
(with George Jones)



[Tammy]
Before you take another step
There's something you should know
About the years ahead and how they'll be.
You'll be living in a world
Where roses hardly ever grow
'Cause, all I have to offer you is me.

[Both]
There'll be no mansion waiting on the hill
With crystal chandeliers
And there'll be no fancy clothes for you to wear
Everything I have is standing here
In front of you to see
All I have to offer you is me.

[Instrumnental]

[George]
Sweetheart I'll give you all my love
In every way I can
Make sure that's what you want
While you're still free
The only gold I have for you
Is in this wedding band
'Cause, all I have to offer you is me.

[Both]
There'll be no mansion waiting on the hill
With crystal chandeliers
And there'll be no fancy clothes for you to wear
Everything I have is standing here
In front of you to see
All I have to offer you is me.

All I have to offer you is me...

"All Night Long"

"All Night Long"



Move closer to me don't slip out of my arms my emotions tonight are so strong
You say I'm your woman all through the day then leave me alone all night long
When I'm in your arms I'm too weak to be strong whatever we do can't be wrong
Don't tell me you love me all through the day then leave me alone all night long

Move closer let me feel the touch of your lips you've made me so weak for so long
Don't tell me you love me all through the day then leave me alone all night long
When I'm in your arms...

"Almost Persuaded"

"Almost Persuaded"



Last night all alone in a barroom met a man with a drink in his hand
He had baby blue eyes coal black hair and a smile that a girl understands
Then he came and sat down at my table and as he placed his hand over mine
I found myself wanting to kiss him for temptation was flowing like wine
And I was almost persuaded to strip myself of my pride
Almost persuaded to push my conscience aside
Then we danced and he whispered I need you
Let me take you away and be your man
Then I looked into his eyes and I saw it the reflection of my wedding band
And I was almost persuaded to let strange lips lead me on
Almost persuaded but your sweet love made me stop and go home

"Another Chance"

"Another Chance"



When you left you said you's doin' me a favor
I cried and I begged you not to go
Now it's just been two short weeks
And you want to come back
But I think there's somethin' that you oughtta know

I've rearranged the livin' room to suit me
I gave your favorite chair to charity
That closet you insisted on, it's mine now
So don't bring your old hangups back to me

I'm wearin' my jeans a little bit tighter
Changed my hair style and I'm learnin' how to dance
So maybe you best wait a little bit longer
'Fore you come back and give me another chance

I thank you for your call but someone's knockin' at the door
And he's drivin' a big old Cadillac
I prob'ly won't be home when you come to get your clothes
There on the back porch in a paper sack

I'm wearin' my jeans a little bit tighter
Changed my hair style and I'm learnin' how to dance
So maybe you best wait a little bit longer
'Fore you come back and give me another chance

I'm wearin' my jeans a little bit tighter
Changed my hair style and I'm learnin' how to dance
So maybe you best wait a little bit longer
'Fore you come back and give me another chance

"Another Lonely Song"

"Another Lonely Song"



Time won't ease my memory it's killing me now
And Lord how I need him here just to feel him near and hear him breathing
Still the night goes on and on another lonely song I'm singing
Lord don't think bad of me don't get mad at me you know I'm weak
And it couldn't cause a whole lot of harm to be in somebody's arms
Cause she's in his I know she is I know she is but God I love him
And though I shouldn't give a damn that's the way I am now
And Lord guess I'll stay this way I can't play this way just because I'm lonely
Still the night goes on and on another lonely song I'm singing
Lord don't look down on me don't frown on me let's just keep talking

Another lonely song I'm singing

"Apartment No. 9"

"Apartment No. 9"



Just follow the stairway
To this lonely world of mine
You'll find me waitin' here
In apartment number nine

Not so very long ago
You walked away from me
And after all the plans we made
You decided to be free

Loneliness surrounds me
Without your arms around me
And the sun will never shine
In apartment number nine

I keep waitin' in this lonely room
Just in case you change your mind
You'll find me waitin' here
In apartment number nine

Loneliness surrounds me
Without your arms around me
And the sun will never shine
In apartment number nine

No,the sun will never shine
In apartment number nine

"Away In A Manger"

"Away In A Manger"



Away in a manger, no crib for His bed
The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head
The stars in the Heavens looked down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus, asleep in the hay

Beneath me Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever and love me I pray
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And take us to Heaven to live with Thee there

Away in a manger, no crib for His bed
The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head
The stars in the Heavens looked down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus, asleep in the hay

The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

"Baby, Come Home"

"Baby, Come Home"



Oh baby come home baby come home oh baby come home please come on home

Come on home now baby come home
Well I miss you so much come one home come on home
