IF IT'S ALL THE SAME TO YOU

(Bill Anderson)
« © '67 Johnny Bienstock Music, BMI »
If it's all the same to you if you don't love me like before
I don't think I'll hang around and let you hurt me anymore
If it's all the same to you if your love has really gone
Pardon me while I walk out pick up my heart and move along
I'll bet you somewhere I'll find someone I can thrill with my kiss
Mhm if it's all the same to you yes and I sadly think it is
[ guitar ] If it's all the same to you...
Yes it's true honey I sadly think it is
That's the trouble baby I sadly think it is

PUT A LITTLE LOVE IN YOUR HEART

(Randy Myers - Jackie DeShannon - Jimmy Holiday)
« © '69 Unart Catalog, BMI »
Think of your fellow man lend him a helping hand
Put a little love in your heart
You see it's gettin' late oh please don't hesitate
Put a little love in your heart

And the world will be a better place
And the world will be a better place
For you for you and me and me
You just wait you just wait and see and see

Another day goes by and still the children cry
Put a little love in your heart
If you want the world to know we won't let hatred grow
Put a little love in your heart

And the world will be a better place...

Take a good look around and if you're looking down
Put a little love in your heart
I hope when you decide on just who'll be your guide
Put a little love in your heart

And the world will be a better place...

Put a little love in your heart each and every day
Put a little love in your heart everybody
Put a little love in your heart go now
Put a little love in your heart

UNTOUCHABLES

(Bill Anderson)
« © '70 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Me the girl untouchable who always kept her distance
Me the boy untouchable the wall of solid resistance
A walk a talk and one little kiss
Who would have thought it would lead to this
Love has touched the untouchables right in the heart

What am I gonna tell him what am I gonna say
How will I explain to her falling for you this way
Married and both untouchables
And that's what makes things worse
For love has touched the untouchables right in the heart
Right where it hurts
[ steel ] What am I gonna tell him...

TOGETHER WE'RE ONE

(Martin Greene - Jim Weed)
« © '70 Screen Gems Music, BMI »
What good is my life if I don't have you
Cause all of my dreams are built around you
I'd be like Miami without any sun
Without you I'm nothing without you I'm nothing together we're one
The roar of Niagara when you are near turns into a drip when you disappear
Imagine a party without any fun
Without you I'm nothing without you I'm nothing together we're one

When I'm happy oh it tickles me too
When I'm crying you know it hurts me through and through
It takes two hands to make one hold I belong to you baby body and soul
If you ever leave me and you don't come back
I'd be like a train without a railroad track
Just like a river with a no place to run
Without you I'm nothing without you I'm nothing together we're one

When I'm happy oh it tickles me too...

TRUER LOVE YOU'LL NEVER FIND

(Red Lane)
« © '69 Tree Publishing, BMI »
You emptied all my pockets you took away my gold
You stripped me of my innocence and left me in the cold
You robbed me of my patience
And you messed up my mind
But we're gonna stick together babe
Cause a truer love you'll never find than mine

You set my very soul on fire and burned it to the ground
You took my lovely little world and turned it upside down
You robbed me of my patience
And you messed up my mind
But we're gonna stick together babe
Cause a truer love you'll never find than mine

But we're gonna stick together babe
Cause a truer love you'll never find than mine

WHO IS THE BIGGEST FOOL

(Bill Anderson)
« © '70 Johnny Bienstock Music, BMI »
Who is the biggest fool of the two
You for loving me or me for loving you

We were both just out on the town both of us just killing time
When almost before I knew it your lips found their way up to mine
And now here we are doing things we both know we shouldn't do
And darling I wonder just which one of us is the biggest fool of the two

Who is the biggest fool of the two
You for loving me or me for loving you

Tomorrow we know we've got to forget this somehow
But in your arms tomorrow seems almost forever from now
But baby you've got another the same as I do
And it all just makes me stop and wonder
Which one of us is the biggest fool of the two
[ Both ] Who is the biggest fool of the two
You for loving me or me for loving you
You for loving me or me for loving you

TELL IT LIKE IT WAS

(Bill Anderson)
« © '70 Tree Publishing, BMI »
I come home every night and she meets me with a great big kiss
And she says I love you and how was your day
She brings me my slippers cooks my dinner and holds my hand
And vows her love for me won't ever fade away

Tell it like it was tell it like it was
Not like it is cause it ain't no more tell it like it was

I told her once I was born with a restless streak in me
But she laughed it off and said honey you're just a man
Go where you have to go do what you have to do
I love you and I'll wait for you and I'll understand

Tell it like it was tell it like it was...
[ steel ]
[ Bill ] I called her up last night from down in Mexico
She said baby it's cold tonight and I'm alone
I'm not gonna hold anybody I'm not gonna kiss anybody
I'm saving me for you till you get home
[ Jan ] Tell it like it was tell it like it was...
Yeah tell it like it was tell it like it was...

SINCE I MET YOU BABY

(Ivory Joe Hunter)
« © '56 Unichappell Music, BMI »
Since I met you baby my whole life has changed
Since I met you baby my whole life has changed
Everybody tells me that I'm not the same
I don't need nobody to tell my troubles to
I don't need nobody to tell my troubles to
Cause since I met you baby all I need is you
[ guitar ] Since I met you baby I'm a happy soul
Since I met you baby I'm a happy soul
I'm gonna try to please you every way I know hmm hmm

I KNOW YOU'RE MARRIED (BUT I LOVE YOU STILL)

(Don Reno - Mack Magaha)
« © '56 Fort Knox Music, BMI / Trio Music, BMI »
I know you're married but I love you still

The day I met you I knew you weren't free
ut I knew I'd love you through eternity
And though I knew you were another's bride
I vowed my heart would never leave your side
You know I love you and I always will
I know you're married but I love you still
[ steel ] I never would have made that sacred vow if I had only know what I know now
There's room for only you inside my heart so close together yet so far apart
You know I love you and I always will I know you're married but I love you still
I know you're married but I love you still

I'M LEAVING IT UP TO YOU

(Don Harris - Dewey Terry)
« © '63 ATV Songs, BMI / Venice Music, BMI »
I'm leavin' it all up to you you decide what you gonna do
Now do you want my love or are we through

That's why I'm leavin' it up...
[ guitar ] I've got my heart in my hand
But there's so much that I don't understand
And baby I don't know what I've done wrong
You know I worship the ground you walked on

That's why I'm leavin' it up...

TIME OUT

(Harlan Howard - Richard Johnson)
« © '70 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Let's take time out to get aquainted again
We're man and wife we might as well be friends
You don't kiss me like you used to kiss me
Sometimes I take that there must be somebody new

And when I come home at night you act like you didn't even miss me
Lately honey I've even had my doubts about you
We used to face the world and life together
We used to talk of our ambitions and our dreams
But lately we've been takin' our love for granted
We have time for everything except each other it seems

Let's take time out...
[ steel ] Let's go away and spend some time together
And see if that old spark of love's still burning bright
I want us to be close you know like we used to be
And not just two ships that pass each other in the night

Let's take time out...
