DEVIL LIKE ME (NEEDS AN ANGEL LIKE YOU)

(Red Simpson - Don Rich)
« © '66 Central Songs, BMI »
Well a devil like me needs an angel like you to really tame me down
If an angel like me had a devil like you I'd stop your runnin' around
Yeah I'd stay at home like a good man should I'd never ever make you blue
Cause a devil like me needs an angel like you you bet your little heart he do

Well you've never been warm for a steady girl you've always played the field
A this one that one ever other which one just another turn of the wheel
But when you've walked in with your big brown eyes
And your pretty little dress of blue
I knew a devil like me needs an angel like you you bet your little heart we do
[ steel - guitar ] Well a devil me had an angel like you I'd change my reputation
Cause a devil like me with a shady past ain't got no recommendation
I'd give you real love true love a whole lotta sweet love
And make your ever dreams come true
Yes an angel like me needs a devil like you you bet your little heart she do

Well a devil like me needs an angel like you to really tame me down
If an angel like me had a devil like you I'd stop your runnin' around
Yeah I'd stay at home like a good man should I'd never ever make you blue
Cause a devil like me needs an angel like you you bet your little heart he do
Cause the devil like you needs an angel like you you bet your little heart we do

TERRIBLE TANGLED WEB

(Billy Mize)
« © '66 Central Songs, BMI »
You've got a way of makin' me blue
And you've got a way of a hurtin' me too
Ooh what a terrible tangled web we weave don't we
You've got a gentleman on the side
And you've got a friend that you are tryin' to hide
Ooh what a terrible tangled web we're we don't we

We both got our way of goin' our way knowin' the cost gets greater each day
I know you know we know we both deceive don't we
We've got a way of livin' a lie and life's got a way of a makin' us cry
Ooh what a terrible tangled web we weave don't we
[ guitar ] Why do we have to settle for it how can we take too much more it
It figures we both lack the nerve to leave don't we
We've got a way of livin' a lie and life's got a way of makin' us cry
Ooh what a terrible tangled web we weave don't we
Ooh what a terrible tangled web we weave

OLD STANDBY

(Red Simpson - Fuzzy Owen)
« © '66 Central Songs, BMI »
I never know how long I'll get to hold you
I never know when you'll find someone new
You're only mine when you grow tired of someone else
I'm just another stoppin' place for you

I'm just your ole standby that's all I am to you
I'm just your ole standby you want me when you're blue
I know you never love me and the thought makes me cry
Cause I know for sure that I'm nothin' more than just your ole standby
[ guitar - steel ] I tell myself that lovin' you's not wrong
But in my heart I know that it's a lie
You come around when you want me then you're gone
And once again I'm just your old standby

I'm just your ole standby that's all I am to you...

FOREVER AND EVER

(Buck Owens)
« © '65 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Forever and ever I'll love you
I'll swear by the stars up above you
There never will be any other
I'll love you forever and ever

The sun may stop shinin' in heaven
The salty ole sea may run dry
The Man in the Moon may stop smilin'
But I'll always be by your side

Forever and ever I'll love you...
[ guitar - steel ] No other arms ever will hold me
No other lips ever will kiss me
No other heart ever will miss me
I'll love you forever and ever

Forever and ever I'll love you...
I'll love you forever and ever

HEART TALK

(Dick Curless)
« © '64 Aroostock Music, BMI »
You touch my hand I understand
I nod my head and I know you've read what's on my mind
Mhm love you all the time that's heart talk
A little smile you wink your eyes and all the while
It's no surprise I love you still
Mhm and I always will that's heart talk

Some people don't know how it's done or how to go about it
Well I'd say they've got the wrong one cause there's no doubt about it

If you should leave I wouldn't grieve
This one last kiss tells me you'll miss me all the time
Mhm what's on your mind try heart talk
[ piano ] If you should leave I wouldn't grieve...

NO FOOL LIKE AN OLD FOOL

(Buck Owens)
« © '63 Tree Publishing, BMI »
The first time you hurt me I thought I'd die
The second time it happened I cried all night
They say a heart can stand just so much grief and pain
But a fool in love keeps lovin' they never change

There's no fool like an ole fool
That's loved and lost at least a hundred times
There's no fool like an ole fool
That keeps on fallin' for the same ole line
[ steel ] You call and say you're sorry that you let me down
I take you back cause you're what makes my world go round
And though I know my chances are so very small
I'd rather have a part of you than none at all

There's no fool like an ole fool...

I CAN'T STOP MY LOVING YOU

(Buck Owens - Don Rich)
« © '63 Tree Publishing, BMI »
You turn your head each time I meet you on the street
I brush your arm as you pass by but you won't speak
I call you on the telephone but can't get through
But I can't stop my lovin' you

So many times I've tried to find somebody new
Yeah to feel again the feelin' I once felt with you
Though someone else is doin' things I used to do
Oh I can't stop my lovin' you

Can't sleep at night can't hold you tight
Since this loneliness replaced the love we knew
I still hang around though you've turned me down
For I can't stop my lovin' you no I can't stop my lovin' you

CONGRATULATIONS (YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT)

(Buck Owens - Don Rich)
« © '66 Tree Publishing, BMI »
If you see me walkin' round in circles
If you see me starin' at the sky
If you think that I miss you since you left me
Congratulations you're absolutely right

If you think life's been empty since you left me
If you think that I cry for you at night
If you think I'd take you back in a minute
Congratulations you're absolutely right
[ steel ] If you think that I try to call your number
If you think I drive by your house at night
If you think I still love you like I used to
Congratulations you're absolutely right

If you think life's been empty since you left me...

TOO LATE

(Billy Mize)
« © '66 Central Songs, BMI »
We must face the world around us
It's not our fault that heaven found us
Too late to be anything but wrong
We're both married to another
And passion holds us to each other
Too late to be anything but wrong

We've both tried to look inside
Our hearts and find a way to hide
The love that's been denied us for so long
If it's wrong or right or heartless
We'll meet again tonight in darkness
Too late to be anything but wrong
[ steel ] Why do we rate a twist of fate
To bring us love so strong too late
And torture us to have to wait so long
If it's wrong and we both know it
We're too weak to overthrow it
Too late to be anything but wrong
We live in sin and we're above it
But nothin' more can be made of it
Too late to be anything but wrong

YOU YOU ONLY YOU

(Red Simpson - Don Rich)
« © '66 Central Songs, BMI »
I've got two arms that reach for you
I've got two eyes that watch for you
And I've got a heart full of love it's true for you you you

I'd take the moon from the skies for you
And I'd climb the mountains high for you
And I'd drain the oceans dry it's true for you you you

You you only you you're what I need to make my dreams come true

I got a little dog that wags his tail for you
I got a little boat that I'd sail for you
And I'd like to spend my whole life through with you you you
[ steel - guitar ] I've got somethin' old somethin' new
Somethin' borrowed somethin' blue
And I've got a ring laid away it's true for you you you

I'll keep you happy you'll never pine
I'll be yours and you'll be mine
And I'll be till the end of time with you you you

You you only you you're what I need to make my dreams come true

There's a cute little house that I'll buy for you
The minute that I say I do
And there I'll spend my whole life through with you you you
Yes me and you
