SOUL DEEP

(Wayne Carson Thompson)
« © '68 Budde Songs, BMI »
Darling I don't know much I know I love you so much
My life depends on your touch
And my love is a river running soul deep
Way down inside me it's soul deep

It's too big to hide and it can't be denied
My love is a river running soul deep soul deep

I work myself to death for ya just to show I adore ya
Nothing I wouldn't do for ya
Cause my love is a river running soul deep
Way down inside me it's soul deep

Too big to hide...

All I am or ever hoped to be depends on your love for me
Baby believe me if you'd do leave me
I'd be nothing but an empty shell I know darn well

Darling I don't know much...
It's too big to hide...

MAN'S KIND OF WOMAN

(George J. Rizzo)
« © '69 Twin Forks Music, BMI »
I'm a man's kind of man and I know what I want when I look at you
I'm a man's kind of man and I know what I need when I look at you
Cause you're a man's kind of woman and now I know
That this man's kind of man's got a long long way to go

I'm a man's kind of gambler and I win at almost anything I do
I can cheat the world with a losing hand
Walk away not give a damn except for you
Cause you're a man's kind of woman and now I know
Oh that this man's kind of man's got a long long way to go

I'm a man's kind of man and I had my share of women everywhere I'd go
And when a woman loves a man
There's no woman who can stand next to you that I know
Cause you're a man's kind of woman and now I know
That this man's kind of man's got a long long way to go
Long way to go

WITH PEN IN HAND

(Bobby Goldsboro)
« © '68 Detail Music, BMI »
With pen in hand you signed your name
Today at five I'll be on that train
And you'll be free and I will be alone so alone
If you think we can't find the love we once knew
If you think I can't make everything up to you
Then I'll be gone and you'll be on your own you'll be on your own

Can you take good care of Johnny
Can you take him to school everyday
Can you teach him how to catch a fish
And keep all those bullys away hear what I say

Can you teach him how to whistle a tune
Can you tell him about the Man on the Moon
If you can do these things
Then maybe he won't miss me maybe he won't miss me

And tonight as you lay in that big lonely bed
And you look at the pillow where I laid my head
With your heart on fire will you have no desire to kiss me and to hold me
And if you can forget the good times we had
If you don't think the good times won't outweigh the bad
Then sign your name and I'll be on my way I'll be on my way hmm hmm

WHEN THE WIND BLOWS IN CHICAGO

(Scott Turner - Audie Murphy)
« © '64 Irving Music, BMI »
Well here here I am in Chicago
All alone near the place where we met
As I walk through the rain the wind whispers your name
Oh why won't they let me forget

Cause when the wind blows I get lonely
And one day for sure you will find
That the wind always blows in Chicago
So I'm lonely most all of the time

Well folks they look so happy here on State Street
They don't know that our love's not the same
I'm alone in the crowd with my hopes in the clouds
Cause the wind just whispers your name
Yes the wind always blows in Chicago
I'm so lonely most all of the time

JUST ENOUGH TO START ME DREAMIN'

(Hank Cochran)
« © '69 Tree Publishing, BMI »
You started a flame I can't drown
Then told me you see me around
All I have to do is get a glimpse of you and then
That's just enough to start me dreamin' again

You promised a love I could hold
Then you turned away so distant and cold
All I have to do is hear about you from a friend
And that's just enough to start me dreamin' again

And as long as I dream you'll be on my mind
And lately I've been dreaming all the time
All I do is think about you and the dream that didn't end
And that's just enough to start me dreamin' again
And that's just enough to start me dreamin' again

I JUST CAN'T HELP BELIEVIN'

(Cynthia Weil - Barry Mann)
« © '68 Screen Gems Music, BMI »
Oh I just can't help believin' when she smiles up soft and gentle
With a trace of misty morning and a promise of tomorrow in her eyes
And I just can't help believin' when she's lying close beside me
And my heart beats with the rhythm of her sighs
This time the girl is gonna stay this time the girl is gonna stay
For more than just a day

Oh I just can't help believin' when she slips her hand in my hand
And it feels so small and helpless that my fingers fold around it like a glove
And I just can't help believin' when she's whispering her magic
And her tears are shining honey sweet with love
This time the girl is gonna stay this time the girl is gonna stay
For more than just a day

LEAVING ON A JET PLANE

(John Denver)
« © '69 Cherry Lane Music, ASCAP / Music Of 1091, ASCAP »
Oh my bags are packed I'm ready to go
I'm standing here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breaking it's early morn
the taxi's waitin' he's blowing his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could die

So kiss me and smile for me tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe I hate to go

There's so many times I've let me down
So many times I've played around
I tell you now that they don't mean a thing
Every place I'll go I'll think of you
Every song I'll sing I'll sing for you
When I come back I'll bring your wedding ring

So kiss me and smile for me...

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time let me kiss you
Then close your eyes I'll be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
About the times I won't have to say

So kiss me and smile for me...
I hate to go I hate go

TODAY I STARTED LOVING YOU AGAIN

(Merle Haggard - Bonnie Owens)
« © '67 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Well today I started loving you again
And I'm right back where I've really always been
I got over you just long enough to let my heartache mend
Then today I started loving you again

What a fool I was to think I could get by
With only these few million tears I've cried
Well I should have known the worst was yet to come
And that crying time for me had just begun

Cause today I started loving you again...

SHADOWS OF HER MIND

(Kris Kristofferson)
« © '68 Careers Music, BMI »
I met her sadly in the slowly falling rain
Crying softly in her loveliness and pain
Knowing no one needin' someone bad as me
And she told me as I held her trembling hand
Walking slowly how she'd never known a man
Living lonely in her cottage by the sea

When the morning came her tears had changed to laughter
And before the night her heart beat close to mine
And I thought as she lay sleeping bout the secrets she was keeping
Hidden somewhere in the silence of the shadows of her mind

In the morning as I wakened with the dawn
Without warning I could feel that she was gone
Leaving nothing but her silence next to me
And lonely footprints that I followed in the sand
Walking slowly for I knew where they would end
Disappearing in the silence of the sea

And I sometimes hear the echoe of her laughter
As I search for what I know I'll never find
For the answer I was seeking was the secrets she's still keeping
Hidden somewhere in the silence of the shadows of her mind
Hidden somewhere in the silence of the shadows of her mind

MARY IN THE MORNING

(Johnny Cymbal - Michael Lendell)
« © '67 Songs Of Universal, BMI »
Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning
When through a sleepy haze I see her lying there
Soft as the rain that falls on summer flowers
Warm as the sunlight shining on her golden hair mhm

When I awake and see her there so close beside me
I want to take her in my arms the ache is there so deep inside me

Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning
Chasing a rainbow in her dream so far away
And when she turns to touch it I kiss her face so softly
And then my Mary wakes to love another day mhm

And Mary's there in sunny days or stormy weather
She doesn't care cause right or wrong the love we share we share together

Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the evening
Kissed by the shades of night and starlight in her hair
And as we walk I hold her close beside me
All our tomorrows for lifetime we will share mhm
And Mary's there

I'LL GIVE YOU THREE GUESSES

(Johnny Mercer - Henry Mancini)
« © '70 Famous Music, ASCAP »
I'll give you three guesses who loves you
Who's loved you right from the start
And not your mother who likes to baby you so
And not the boy back home you used to know oh no

There's somebody special who needs you together or apart
Bet you don't need three guesses and not even two
To know that I'm the one sweetheart
[ guitar ] Oh yes there's somebody special...
