(Ladies and gentlemen
Please make welcome to Lowes Theater in Branson Missouri
Miss Connie Smith)

Don't talk to me cause I can't listen
And I wouldn't wanna waste your time
I apologize but did I mention
I've got my baby on my mind

Lately I've been a little dizzy
With a sickness called preoccupied
I've got things to do but I'm too busy
I've got my baby on my mind

He's got a love that is real
He's got a love I can feel
He's got a love he's got a love
He's got a love no one can steal

I don't wanna talk about this weather
Cause I love it come rain or shine
I've got to go I'll see you later
I've got my baby on my mind

Now let's listen to the band

My favorite color is the rainbow my favorite song's Walk The Line
And my favorite day is tomorrow I've got my baby on my mind

He's got a love that is real...
I don't wanna talk about this weather...

Thank you you're wonderful
Welcome to our show

Where Is My Castle

Dallas Frazier

More than once I've cried because impatience let me down
I could see the gold before the gold was found
And everytime I've trusted love to lead me by the hand
It circled back and left me where I stand

Where is my castle where is my destiny
How much longer will I have to dream
Where is my sunshine where is my valley
Where is the love that's meant for me
[ steel - fiddle ]
If they do somethin' you like let 'em know will you

Well next time I cross over that old bridge I'm gonna stay
I don't care if the river washes it away
Cause I'm not gonna take one step until the day I find
A man with a faithful heart and a made-up mind

Where is my castle where is my destiny...

Thank you you do that so well
Will you just keep that up and help us get this next song started will you

Just One Time

Don Gibson

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

This was a song that was a smash hit for Don Gibson when he wrote and recorded it
And it was also a number one record for me

If I could see you just one time
Oh how it'd ease my troubled mind
If I could hold you just one time
And then pretend that you're still mine

Lips that used to thrill me so
They now thrill someone else I know
Gone is the love that once was mine
Wish I could see you just one time

Oh oh oh how I love you so oh I miss you so
I I I'd give this heart of mine
If I could see you just one time
[ guitar ]
Wish I could relive just one time
Turn back the pages and there I'd find
That same old love that once was mine
Wish I could see you just one time

Oh oh oh how I love you so oh I need you so...
Oh oh oh how I love you so oh I miss you so...

If I could see you just one time
Wish I could see you one
Caught ya it's time to quit now we're almost done
More time one more time

Thank you you did good thank you very much

Louisiana Man

Doug Kershaw

I really love Branson
You know one of the neat things about Branson is the fact
That people from all over the world come here
And I know amid all of these folks from all of these places
There's gotta be a cajun or two out there
Am I right great
Cause this next song is for you and it's the key of Aye
You like that cajun fiddle

At birth mom and papa called the little boy Ned
They raised him on the banks of a riverbed
A houseboat tied to a big tall tree
A home for my mapa and my mama and me

Well the clock strikes three papa jumps to his feet
Already mama's cookin' papa somethin' to eat
At half past papa he's ready to go
He jumps in his pirogue headed down the bayou

He's got fishin' lines strung across the Lousiana River
Gotta catch a big fish for us to eat
He's settin' traps in the swamp catchin' anything he can
Gotta make a livin' he's a Lousiana man
Gotta make a livin' he's a Lousiana man

Oh muskrat hides a hangin' by the dozen
Even got a little mink a muskrat's cousin
Gotta 'em out dryin' in the hot hot sun
Tomorrow papa's gonna turn 'em into mon
[ fiddle ]
Well they call my mama Rita and my daddy Jack
And little baby brother on the floor that's Mack
Now big brother Ed's on the bayou fishin'
Fran and Malan are the family twins

Well on the river floats papa's great big boat
Cause that's how my papa goes into town
It takes ever bit of a night and a day
To even reach a place where the people stay

Well I can hardly wait until tomorrow comes around
That's the day my papa takes the furs to town
Papa promised me that I could go
He even let me see a cowboy show

I saw the cowboys and Indians for the first time then
I told my papa gotta go again
Papa said hon we got lines to run
We'll come back tomorrow cause there's work to be done

He's got fishin' lines strung across the Lousiana River...

Gotta make a livin' he's a Lousiana man
Gotta make a livin' he's a Lousiana man

Thank you very much

Several years ago I had an idea for a song I wanted to write
About the way love should be
So this is for all you folks that are in love
And boy I hope that includes everbody

You've Got Me (Right Where You Want Me)

George Richey - Connie Smith

© Al Gallico Music, BMI / Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

Oooh darling could I just have one moment with you
We're here all alone just us two
Let me try to tell you in a few little words
How my heart feels about you

Why if there were no rainbow I'd paint one for you
And I'd teach the robin a new song or two
Then I'd find forever and hand it to you
Oh I wish there was more could do

You've got me right where you want me
It's true I'm right in the palm of your hand
You've got me right where you want me
And I want me right where I am
[ steel ]
You've got me right where you want me
It's true I'm right in the palm of your hand
You've got me right where you want me to be
And I want me right where I am
I want me right where I am oooh

Thank you thank you very much

You know we travel all around the country
And we get to talk to the folks after the concerts
We get so many people come up and say
Well I wanted to hear this song and you didn't sing it
And I wanted to hear that song and you didn't sing it
And so what we've done because we don't have time to do
All the ones that we've recorded
We just put some together
And hopefully we'll find some here that you'll recognize
And it will be the one you're lookin ' for
If not just kinda act like it is will you so you'll make us feel good

Medley Of Hits

Dallas Frazier - Bill Anderson

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

JUST FOR WHAT I AM

Blue ain't just the word it's a feeling
A feeling of loneliness that I can feel right now
Love has looked at me but tried to change me
I wished that love would take me just for what I am

Just for what I am I want someone to love me
Someone who won't expect me to feel like their old mem'ry
Just for what they see oh just for bein' me
Well I want someone to love me just for what I am
I want someone to love me just for what I am

(Now Dallas Frazier wrote that song not only for me
But he wrote it about me this is one of his ballads)

RUN AWAY LITTLE TEARS

Run away little tears you've been locked up too long
Run away little tears our baby's gone

I look at his picture touch an old souvenir
And then grow weak from holding back these locked up tears

Run away little tears you've been locked up too long
Run away little tears our baby's gone
Run away little tears our baby's gone

NOBODY BUT A FOOL (WOULD LOVE YOU)

Nobody but a fool would love you after the way you've done me
Broke every vow you made me broke every rule
Who'd lie awake all night cryin' till you were out of sight
Loving you with all of her might nobody but a fool
Nobody but a fool

TINY BLUE TRANSISTOR RADIO

He bought it for my birthday just one short year ago
This tiny blue transistor radio
We stayed out late and listened to the music soft and low
On the tiny blue transistor radio

And the man at the radio station made the special dedication
Aw to Jimmy and the girl that he love so
We kissed each other gently as we listened so intently
To the tiny blue transistor radio
Oh my tiny blue transistor radio

This is my second record
One of 33 Bill Anderson songs I've recorded so far

THEN AND ONLY THEN

In your haste you left and said you'd be returnin'
Thank you
In my sorrow I forgot to ask you when
And in my lonely room I sit and count the hours
Every minute hoping I'll look up and you'll come walking in

For then and only then will I stop crying
And this aching breaking heart of mine will mend
Not until I feel your arms around me
Will I be happy and I live for then and only then

I NEVER ONCE STOPPED LOVING YOU

We'd love again just the way we used to do
And then today when you came back my patience was rewarded
For I never once stopped loving you
I never once stopped loving you

One of those hits songs first by me and now the Whites

IF IT AIN'T LOVE (LET'S LEAVE IT ALONE)

If it ain't love then let's don't even let it start
Let's leave it alone
If it ain't love then let's don't temp our foolish heartas
Let's leave it alone

Well if happiness is free just like a rollin' stone
And only love can make it stay at home
Now feelin's have a way of mixin' right with wrong
If it ain't love let's leave it alone

If it ain't love then let's don't even let it start...

IF I TALK TO HIM

If I talk to him I take him back again
Oh I'm afraid to even answer the phone
If I talk to him I take him back again
So if he calls please tell him I'm not home
If he calls please tell him I'm not home

AIN'T HAD NO LOVIN'

Ain't done one single thing this morning
Thank you
Except for crying all alone
Ain't had no lovin' since you've been gone
And I ain't a gonna get no lovin' till you come home
I ain't had no lovin' since you've been gone
And I ain't a gonna get no lovin' till you come home

About a little place somewhere in Ohio

CINCINNATI OHIO

One more hour and I'll be home
Close my eyes and rest my bones
I can't be more than a mile or so
From Cincinnati Ohio Cincinnati Ohio

Cincinnati where the river winds
Cross the Mason and the Dixie Line
Heaven waits for me I know
In Cincinnati Ohio Cincinnati Ohio

Cincinnati where the river winds...
Cincinnati Ohio Cincinnati Ohio

Thank you very much thank you

You know I've sung those songs so many times
But if you added them all together and the amount of times I've sung 'em all
I guess it probably wouldn't average up to this next one
Cause I guess I average singin' it at least

Once A Day

Bill Anderson

© Johnny Bienstock Music, BMI

Once a day every day all day long

When you found somebody new I thought I never would
Forget you for I thought then I never could
But time has taken all the pains away
Until now I'm down to hurtin' once a day

Once a day all day long
And once a night from dusk till dawn
The only time I wish you weren't gone
Is once a day every day all day long

Hear Jack
[ steel ]
I'm so glad that I'm not like a girl I knew one time
She lost the one she loved then slowly lost her mind
She sat around and cried her life away
Lucky me I'm only crying once a day

Once a day all day long...
Once a day every day all day long

Thank you thank you very much

I was at the Pan Theater in New Boston Ohio
Down near Portsmith one time years ago
And Miss Martha Carson was live on stage
She's such a great entertainter right up today she's marvelous
And when I got to see her she was singin' this song

Satisfied

Martha Carson

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

I've got that old time religion I've got that old time religion
And that is why I'm satisfied

Well you ask me if I'm happy and if I have that peace within
If I'm worried about tomorrow when I reach my journey's end
Well I'm satsified with my Jesus oh when he knocks I let him in
Cause he goes with me through all these valleys and I know he is my friend

Satisfied satisfied no troubles can ever keep me down
When by the road to death with my Jesus I'll be addressed
And then you'll know that I'm satisfied

Let's hear what Gary has to say
[ piano - steel - guitar ]
Well if my friends they all forsake me and they turn me from their door
And if they sow no seeds of kindness fate storm clouds all around me roar
Well it won't matter over yonder when I reach that other side
Cause I'm a gonna sit down with my Jesus that is why oh Lord I'm satsfied

Satisfied satisfed no troubles can ever keep me down
When by the close of death with my Jesus I'll be at rest
And then you'll know that I'm satisfied

Satisfied I'm satisfied ain't no trouble gonna ever keep me down
Oh when my eyes are close in death with my Jesus I'll be at rest
And then you'll know that I'm satisfied

Cause I got that old time religon got that old time religion
That is why I'm satisfied oh yeah

Thank you

I wanna sing you a song tonight
That when I have to narrow down
All the hundreds of songs I know and pick out my favorite
It usually turns out to be this one
Mostly because of what it says and who it's talkin' about
Cause it's talkin' about my dearest friend

How Great Thou Art

Stuart Hine

How great Thou art how great Thou art

Oh Lord my God when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds thy hands have made
I see the stars and I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power thruout this universe displayed

Then sings my soul my Saviour God to Thee
How great thou art how great Thou art
Then sings my soul my Saviour God to Thee
How great Thou art how great Thou art
[ steel ]
When Christ shall come with shouts of acclaimation
Oh to take us home what joy shall fill my heart
Then I will bow in humble adoration
And there proclaim oh my God how great thou art

Then sings my soul my saviour God to Thee...
How great Thou art how great Thou art

God bless you thank you

(Connie Smith
Jack Smith and the band thank you
Here's Connie Smith)
