HAPPY HOUR

(Buck Owens) « © '73 Tree Publishing, BMI »
I hide my guilty feelings in the wine
And I leave responsibility behind
I know I'll get home late tonight again
But happy hour don't start till she walks in

Happy hour don't start till she gets close to me
An angel in disguise I know
Happy hour don't start till she takes all of of me
And happy hour don't end till she lets go

I've got two little children there at home
And a loving wife that love just me alone
And they'll be waiting there when I walk in
Just as soon as happy hour is gone again

Happy hour don't start till she gets close to me...
No happy hour don't end till she lets go

BRING BACK MY PEACE OF MIND

(Buck Owens) « © '70 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Bring back my peace of mind let me live again
End my long lonely nights make my heart beat again
Drive my grey skies away let the sunshine begin
Bring back my peace of mind and let me live again

I miss your fingertips I miss your loving lips
I miss the tender little things you used to do
I tried so hard to find some other peace of mind
But now I must face the fact there's just one you

Bring back my peace of mind let me live again...
Bring back my peace of mind and let me live again

ACROSS THIS TOWN AND GONE

(Buck Owens - Gene Price) « © '69 Tree Publishing, BMI »
It's time to leave so let me go I've just been wastin' time
I'll call you in a year or so if I can spare a dime

We couldn't change the bad to good the good Lord knows we tried
And a one way love just ain't no good and I can't live a lie

So I'll just hit the road a crying low
I'll walk so fast you'll never know
I'm crying and dying
Before one teardrop hits the ground
I'll be halfway across this town and gone
[ guitar ] Perhaps in time the hurt will heal if I just walk away
I love you so I hate to go there's no other way

I'll just hit the road a crying low...

Before one teardrop hits the ground
I'll be halfway across this town and gone

FISHIN' ON THE MISSISSIPPI

(Bob Morris) « © '67 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Well I'm fishin' in the middle of the Mississippi river
And the water's too muddy to drink
A big catfish chewin' in my little toe
And my baby's waitin' on the bank

Well I tried to make a livin' on the Mississippi river
It's a mighty hard life to live
But I'm gonna build a house for my pretty little baby
And I'm gonna build it on the hill

Don't you know if I'm lucky I catch you catfish
Sell 'em for a dollar bill
Then I buy another board and a pocketful of nails
For the little house on the hill

Well I'm fishin' in the middle of the Mississippi river...
[ fiddle ] Well my daddy told me that there's sure gonna be
A lotta hard times comin' around
Well I'd rather be fishin' on the Mississippi river
Than a diggin' in a cold cold ground

Well I couldn't make whiskey like all of the others
But my baby would set me free
And I have to go runnin' down the Mississippi river
When the law comes callin' on me

Well I'm fishin' in the middle of the Mississippi river...
Well I'm fishin' in the middle of the Mississippi river...

GOOD OLD DAYS (ARE HERE AGAIN)

(Buck Owens) « © '73 Tree Publishing, BMI »
The good old days are here again my baby's coming home
She'll soon be back within my arms yes back where she belongs

The lonely nights are gone for good like castles in the air
The good old days are here again God answered all my prayers

The train is stoppin' at the station I can hardly stand this waitin'
Here she comes
Watch her as she runs to meet me trembling lips that strain to greet me
God she's warm

The lonely nights are gone for good...
The train is stoppin' at the station...
The lonely nights are gone for good...

SECRET LOVE

(Paul F. Webster - Sammy Fain) « © '53 WB Music, ASCAP »
Now my secret love's no secret anymore

Once I had a secret love
That lived within the heart of me
All too soon my secret love
Became impatient to be free

And so I told a friendly star
The way that lovers often do
Just how wonderful you are
And why I'm so in love with you

Now I shout it from the highest hill
I even told the golden deffodils
And now my heart's an open door
And my secret love's no secret anymore
[ fiddle ] And my secret love's no secret anymore

IT NEVER WILL BE OVER FOR ME

(Buck Owens) « © '73 Tree Publishing, BMI »
You're standing there explaining that it's over
That all the love we've know is down the drain
You say there's nothing left now to talk over
That there's no use for us to fan the flame
But you can't see what's going on inside me
And you can't feel the trembling in my knees
And though I know nithing's colder
Than an old love that's gone over
Still it never will be over for me

No it never will be over for me
Yes it takes more than words to set me free
Goodbye can't make our love a memory
And it never will be over for me
Goodbye can't make our love a memory
And it never will be over for me

EASY LOVIN'

(Freddie Hart) « © '70 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Easy lovin' so sexy lookin'
I know from the feeling that it comes from the heart
Easy lovin' everyday's things givin'
To count all my blessings I wouldn't know where to start

Everytime I look you over so real to life it seems
Upon your pretty shoulders there's a pair of angel wings
Easy lovin' seein's believin'
Life with you is like living in a beautiful dream

Everytime I look you over so real to life it seems...

THAT LOVING FEELING

(Buck Owens) « © '73 Tree Publishing, BMI »
When it's snowing in December and her kiss don't make me tremble
You're in trouble cause that loving feeling's gone

When you wake up in the night and reach to touch her
And suddenly you realize she's gone
You tell yourself that it don't really matters
But then you toss and turn all night till down

You stumble down the stairs to make some coffee
Convince you'll be much better off alone
But when all the peace and quiet starts to drive you up to wall
You're in trouble cause that loving feeling's gone

When you've lost that loving feeling you're in trouble
When a tender loving kiss don't turn you on
When it's snowing in December and her kiss don't make me tremble
You're in trouble cause that loving feeling's gone
Yes you're in trouble cause that loving feeling's gone
