Nothing Can Stop My Love

Roger Miller - George Jones

© Fort Knox Music, BMI / Trio Music, BMI

Well I gotta get up I gotta keep goin'
Rain or shine sleetin' or snowin'
Nothing can stop me stop me stop my loving you
Run through woods climb a high mountain
Love's in my heart like water in a fountain
Nothing can stop me stop me stop my loving you

Cross the fire walk through river
You'll be the taker I'll be the giver
I'll give you lovin' lovin' honey that's what I'll do
Build a great wall and I'd tear it to pieces
I gotta get to your love and kisses
Nothing can stop me stop me stop my loving you
[ fiddle ]
Well I can't stop praisin' the day I found you
I'd walk a hundred miles just to be around you
Nothing can stop me stop me stop my loving you
Nothing at all nothing in the world can
Make me stop fallin' for you my girl friend
Nothing can stop me stop me stop my loving you

Cross the fire walk through river...
[ steel ]
I walk through the woods climb a high mountain
Love's in my heart like water in a fountain
Nothing can stop me stop me stop my loving you
Build a great wall and I'd tear it to pieces
I gotta get to your love and kisses
Nothing can stop me stop me stop my loving you

No Use To Cry

George Jones

No use to cry don't even try to stop yourself from being lonely
I'm leaving you so you'll be blue a long long time
You thought you were smart to break a heart that love no one but you dear only
I'm gonna do your heart the same way you did mine
[ fiddle ]
I'll board the train I won't explain just why the reason is I'm lately
Cause you'll know why but not to cry just wait and see
I gave you a home you done me wrong I tried so very hard to please you
Well it's goodbye no use to cry it's gotta be
[ fiddle ]
You'll never win so think again before you do the same thing over
There's not a man that ever can believe your lies
Go right ahead and wish you was dead keep all your love deep undercover
Then when he's gone and you're alone no use to cry

No No Never

George Jones - Bernard Spurlock

Sweetheart did you think I'd be untrue
Did you think I'd ever cheat on you
No no no no never
Sweetheart did you think that I'm the kind
Or that I'd ever change my mind
No no no no never

Oh won't you be my little wife
Let me love you all my life
Cause don't you know I'm inclined
I want your lovin' all time
Sweetheart did you think I'd be untrue
Did you think I'd ever cheat on you
No no no no never
[ steel - guitar - fiddle ]
Sweetheart did you think the sun would shine
If I couldn't have you all the time
No no no no never
Sweetheart did you think I'd ever try
Do you think I'd ever make you cry
No no no no never

Well won't you be my little wife
And let me love you all my life
Cause you know that I'm inclined
I want your lovin' all the time
Sweetheart did you think it would make you blue
To treat me as sweetly as you do
No no no no never
[ piano ]
Sweetheart did you think it would make you blue
To treat me as sweetly as you do
No no no no never

If I Don't Love You Baby

George Jones - J.P. Richardson

Well, you got my heart a feelin' used and jumpy
The road of love is gettin' mighty mighty bumpy
Tell me pretty mama have I filled your heart with ache
Well if someone knew your affiliated
Then it's makin' me feel like I'm outdated
If I don't love you grits ain't groceries
And that's another poor mans place.

Well, let me know honey, tell me what's a-matter
Lat me know what's on your mind
If I don't love you ain't a cow in texas
They raise 'em there all the time.

Well, I don't want to soumd like I'm demandin'
I just wanta get a little understanding
If I don't love you grits ain't groceries
And that's another poor mans place.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, won't you tell me something, baby
Tell me what's a-matter
Let me know what's on your mind
If I don't love you ain't a cow in texas
They raise 'em there all the time.

Well, I don't want to soumd like I'm demandin'
I just wanta get a little understanding
If I don't love you grits ain't groceries
And that's another poor mans place...

Seasons Of My Heart

George Jones - Darrell Edwards

© Fort Knox Music, BMI / Trio Music, BMI

The seasons come the seasons go we get a little sunshine rain and snow
Just the way that it was planned to be
But there's no seasons in my heart while you play the leading part
Cause the flowers will bloom eternaly

Your leaving will bring autumn sorrow
And my tears like withered leaves will fall
But spring could bring some glad tomorrow
And darling we could be happy after all
[ steel ]
As it is in nature's plan no season get the upper hand
Oh how I try to keep this fact in mind
The trees are bare the cold wind blows and by experience we should know
That winter comes but the spring is close behind

Your leaving will bring autumn sorrow...

You Gotta Be My Baby

George Jones

© Glad Music, BMI / Pappy Daily Music, BMI

Oh you said you was my baby now I know that you're my baby
But it seems to me you got rovin' eye
If you wanna be my baby then you gotta be my baby
You can't keep your finger in two different fire
I remember how you pleaded when you told me that you needed
All my lovin' I believe it without a doubt
So if you wanna be my baby then you gotta be my baby
And you gotta leave 'em kissin' cousins out

Oh when you're high steppin' I'm a crawlin' low
I get suspicious and I'm a gonna tell you so
If you wanna be my baby then you gotta be my baby
And be nobody's baby but mine
[ guitar - piano - steel ]
Now I heard there was another so I went and asked your mother
If anybody hung around 'sides me
She gave me no satisfaction and now I can't take no action
But I think I'll hang around and see
If you wanna be my baby then you gonna be my baby
And you gotta come to me and tell me so
If you're gonna be my baby then you gotta be my baby
And I'm tired of waitin' round so let me know

Oh when you're high steppin' I'm a crawlin' low...

I Gotta Talk To Your Heart

George Jones

© Fort Knox Music, BMI / Trio Music, BMI

I've gotta talk to your heart you've got no right to make me cry
The love I've shone for you these years can't be washed away with tears
I've gotta talk to your heart
I've gotta make you understand our love is drifting far apart
Won't you please stop where you are let's not carry this too far
I've gotta talk to your heart

Too wise I told you all those lies that brought tears to your eyes
You know this never could be
So before you say goodbye give me another try
And I'll prove they're wrong you'll see

I've gotta talk to your heart just gotta make you understand
I've gotta try to change your mind give me just a little time
I've gotta talk to your heart
[ fiddle ]
Too wise I told you all those lies...
I've gotta talk to your heart...

I'm Ragged But I'm Right

George Jones

I've come here to tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right
I'm a tramp and a rounder I stay out late at night
I pour a high steak three times a day for my board
That's more than any loafer in this old town can afford

Well big electric fan to keep me cool when I sleep
A little baby boy to play around daddy's feet
I'm a rambler a gambler I lead every life
I tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right
[ piano - fiddle - steel ]
Well now I got married I knew I'd settled down
And build a little lovenest right here in my hometown
So now I've got a family one that I'm proud of
I know that I'll be happy cause there's the ones I love

Well big electric fan to keep me cool when I sleep...

Why Baby Why

George Jones - Darrell Edwards

© Fort Knox Music, BMI / Trio Music, BMI

Tell me why baby why baby why baby why
You make me cry baby cry baby cry baby cry
I can't live without you till the day that I die
So tell me why baby why baby why baby why

Well I got a crow I want to pick with you
Just like last time when the feathers flew
You're running wild a kickin' up your heels
A leavin' me home with a handful of bills

I can't live without you and you know it's true
But there's no livin' with you so what'll I do
I'm goin' honky tonkin' get as tight as I can
Maybe by then you'll preciate a good man

Tell me why baby why baby why baby why...
[ fiddle ]
Well now I don't know but I've heard say
That every little dog's a gonna have his day
You better pay attention don't you dare forget
Cause I'm just a little baby puppy yet

I caught you honky tonkin' with my best friend
The thing to do was leave you but I shoulda left then
Now I'm too old to leave you but I still get sore
When you come home a feelin' for the knob on the door

Tell me why baby why baby why baby why
You make me cry baby cry baby cry baby cry
I can't help but love you till the day that I die
So tell me why baby why baby why baby why
