TIME'S JUST RIGHT

(Jerry Foster - Bill Rice)
« © '70 PolyGram Int, ASCAP »
This ain't no time to be goin' for a walk
So take off your coat and let's have a little talk
Cause I found out where you went last night
Let's talk about it now cause the time's just right

I been talkin' to some friends of mine
And I found out where you spend your time
You come a draggin' in just about daylight
Let's talk about it now cause the time's just right

The time's just right to do all the tellin'
It ain't no use for you to start yellin'
Screamin' and a hollerin' like you do ev'ry time
The time's about right for a piece of my mind
[ guitar ] Well I'm a gettin' pretty tired of bein' treated like a child
While you run around like somethin' gone wild
You never come home till you're bout half tight
Let's talk about it now cause the time's just right

Now don't you look at me with that sheepish grin
I saw you last night tryin' to tiptoe in
Cause I waited up for you most all night
Let's talk about it now cause the time's just right

Yeah the time's just right to do all the tellin'...
[ steel ] I'll tell you right now your goose is cooked
Cause baby I found your little black book
And this time I got the proof in black and white
So let's talk about it now cause the time's just right

The time's just right to do all the tellin'...

WOMAN LIVES FOR LOVE

(Glenn Sutton - Norro Wilson - George Richey)
« © '70 Al Gallico Music, BMI »
I don't mind waiting up for you late hours
And I always try to smile when you come in
I don't mind getting up so early
Get the kids to school and you off to work again

Sometimes a woman's life is not so easy
And a man at times is hard to understand
And I know that sometimes you think you failed me
But in your way I know you do the best you can

So I'll do anything for you anything you want me to
And never once will you hear me complain
For my day is made at night when you kiss and hold me tight
And say you love me cause a woman lives for love
[ steel ] So I'll do anything for you anything you want me to...

HUSBAND HUNTING

(Liz Anderson)
« © '69 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
I'm lonely and I'm lookin' for a husband
Like I do every Friday at this time
A frisky thinkin' whiskey drinkin' husband
I'm lookin' for a husband and he's mine

If there's a tavern in the town
Then that's where I'll look for my man
It's a payday and he's nowhere to be found
So I'm husband hunting again

All week long he's good as gold and then some
A really sweet and family lovin' guy
When payday comes he's high and wide and handsome
He's high and wide and handsome mostly high

If there's a tavern in the town...
[ piano - steel ] I'm lookin' for a husband who is faithful
Who's used to workin' hard for ev'ry cent
I'm lookin' for him and I'd sure be grateful
To get to him before he drinks the rent

If there's a tavern in the town...
If there's a tavern in the town...

(Conway Twitty)
« © '69 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Hello darlin' nice to see you it's been a long time
You're just as handsome as you used to be
How's your new love are you happy hope you're doin' fine
Just to know this means so much to me

What's that darlin' how'm I doin' guess I'm doin' all right
Except I can't sleep and I cry all night till dawn
What I'm trying to say is I love you and I miss you
And I'm so sorry that I did you wrong

Hold me darlin' let me kiss you just for old time sake
Let me hold you in my arms one more time
Thank you darlin' may God bless you and may each step you take
Bring you closer to the things you seek to find

Goodbye darlin' gotta go now gotta try to find a way
To lose these mem'ries of a love so warm and true
And if you should ever find it in your heart to forgive me
Come back darlin' I'll be waiting for you

HEAVENLY SUNSHINE

(Glenn Sutton - George Richey)
« © '68 Al Gallico Music, BMI »
I've search for words so many times that would best describe
The thrill it gives me just to have you at my side
But I can't find one single word that properly defines
How sweet it is just knowing that all your love is mine

Your love is heavenly sunshine heavenly sunshine
You fill my heart with your sweet love so divine
Heavenly sunshine heavenly sunshine
You make me happy cause your love is mine

The colors in the rainbow are a lovely sight to see
But even rainbows lose their glow when you smile at me
And when you kiss me I can hear a thousand bluebirds sing
And no matter how it sounds the words could only mean one thing

Your love is heavenly sunshine heavenly sunshine...

(John D. Loudermilk)
« © '67 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Gather round girls you I grew up with
My ole friends that I used scuff with
I need your tender words so kind
You've all had your time to cry but ole friends stood closely by
Friends of mine stand by me it's my time

It's my time it's my time it's my time
It's my time to cry oh oh oh it's my time to cry ah ah ah
It's my time to cry yeah yeah yeah it's my time

Gather round boys I used to play house with
Come here boys I first kissed on the mouth with
I need you around me at this time
You've all had your misty eyes but ole friends stood by to dry
Friends of mine stand by me it's my time

It's my time it's my time it's my time...
It's my time it's my time it's my time...

NO LOVE AT ALL

(Wayne Carson Thompson - Johnny Christopher)
« © '70 Budde Songs, BMI / Screen Gems Music, BMI »
I see in the paper nearly ev'ryday
People breakin' up and just walkin' away
From love and that's wrong that's so wrong
A happy little home comes up for sale
Because two fools half tried and failed
To get along and you know that's wrong
A man hurts a woman and a woman hurts a man
And neither one of them won't love and understand
And take it with a grain of salt

But I believe that a little bit of love is better than no love
Even a sad love is better than no love
Even a bad love is better than no love at all
A little bit of love is better than no love
Even sad love is better than no love
Any kind of love is better than no love at all

No love at all is a poor ol' man
Standin' on the corner with his hat in his hand
And thare's no place to go and he's feelin' low
No love at all is a child in the street
Dodgin' traffic and a beggin' to eat
On a tennament row and that's a rough row to hoe
No love at all is a troubled young girl
Standin' on a bridge on the edge of the world
And it's a mighty short fall

But I believe that a little bit of love is better than no love...

March out love to the beat of the drum
Give out your love got to give it to someone
Spread a little joy spread a little sunshine
Give a little kindness spread a little goodness
Come on people now try it one time yeah

A little bit of love is better than no love...
A little bit of love is better than no love...

TOMORROW NEVER COMES

(Ernest Tubb - Johnny Bond)
« © '58 Unichappell Music, BMI »
Oh you tell me that you love me you tell me that you care
That tomorrow we'll be married but tomorrow is never there

Many weeks now have I waited many long nights have I cried
Just to see that happy mornin' when I'd have you right by my side

But tomorrow never ever comes no tomorrow never comes
You tell me you tell me you love me and you say that you want me
But tomorrow never comes

ALL DAY SUCKER

(Liz Anderson - Casey Anderson)
« © '70 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
I got up at six this morning and I polished up the sun
So when you woke up the sun would shine on you
Raced the dog to get the paper so when to breakfast you sat down
I could be the one that you'd say thank you to

From the first thing in the mornin' till the last thing in the night
Ev'ry hour and ev'ry minute I'm your fool
Anyway that I can please you I will try with all my might
I'm an all day sucker when it comes to you

So from morning until evening I'll be at your beck and call
I'll do anything at all that pleases you
You can wind me round your finger almost anyway at all
I'm an all day sucker when it comes to you
[ steel ] Then today I cleaned your workshop washed the car and mowed the lawn
And I even shined the laces in your shoes
I try hard to make you love me and it's all an uphill run
I'm an all day sucker when it comes to you

So from morning until evening I'll be at your beck and call...
So from morning until evening I'll be at your beck and call...
I'm an all day sucker when it comes to you

I FOUND YOU JUST IN TIME

(Billy Sherrill - Glenn Sutton)
« © '70 Al Gallico Music, BMI »
I found you just in time
You brought meaning to this life of mine
And made a broken heart a valentine
At last my lonely hours are all behind

You kissed me just in time
To fill the longing in these lips of mine
Just when I thought the sun would never shine
I found you just in time

Just in time to save my world
Heaven sent you to my door
Just in time two arms reached out
Held me close and let me love once more
Love once more

Don't let me cry again
Don't ever let me hear goodbye again
Cause baby when I almost lost my mind
I found you just in time

ALABAM

(Lloyd Copas)
« © '60 Copas Publishing, BMI »
Well I went to a Turkey roast down the street
The people down there eatin' like wild geese
I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam
Well you talk about your people havin' a whale of time
Yeah a eatin' up a chicken and drinkin' up wine
I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam
[ banjo ] Now some folks say that a tramp won't steal
Well I caught three in my corn field
I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam
Well one had a bushel and the other had a peck
And one had a roastin' ear tied around his neck
I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam
[ steel ] Well there comes Sally walkin' down the street
With a run down shoe tied on her feet
I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam
Well hello Sally now how are you
With the run down slipper turn and tore up shoe
I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam
When I get ready to leave this earth
I'm a gonna look back for my money's worth
I'm on my way I'm goin' back to Alabam
I'm goin' back to Alabam
