JEANNIE'S WAITING

(Hank Cochran) « © '65 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Don't say no more Jeannie's waiting
And I've always been as true as I could be
Your lips look so warm and inviting
I'd better leave Jeannie's waiting for me

If she knew I was here she'd be crying
And that's something I never want to see
Your hands are so warm they're too warm
I'd better leave Jeannie's waiting for me

And I love her much too much to ever hurt her
We'd both be better off if I'd leave
Fate was so unkind to throw us here together
I'd better leave Jeannie's waiting for me

Fate was so unkind to throw us here together
I'd better leave Jeannie's waiting for me

YOURS AND HIS

(Dick Overbey) « © '67 Ridgeway Music, BMI / Sanborn Publishing, BMI »
The hours late so I tried to walk in silenct
Toward the house we shared so many yeras
Suddenly I find my feet will go no farther
And I stand here in the darkness fightin' tears

How could I forget that I no longer live here
When this is where my life whole meanin' is
How could I forget the night that you first told me
Everything once yours and mine is yours and his
[ guitar ] What makes me slip in the shadows toward the window
I knew I had no business being there
I lost control and couldn't keep from shouting
That's our room someone again out of there

My shout was heard I hear my daughter crying
Wish that I could give her just one little kiss
But I must run before you find me out here mumbling
Everything once yours and mine is yours and his
Happiness once yours and mine is yours and his

I'LL CHEAT AGAIN

(Gene Davis) « © '67 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
That old feeling built in up inside me
And I know that soon I'll lose control
My strenght to resist is wearin' thin
When temptation comes I'll cheat again

I'm not proud of myself when it's over
I'll go home and I'll face the one I love
And I know although I'm so shamed
When temptation comes I'll cheat again

When I hold her in my arms I keep wondering
Does she know or suspect I been untrue
Because I'm weak she'll be hurt by my sins
When temptation comes I'll cheat again
[ steel ] When I hold her in my arms I keep wondering...

WHAT IF IT HAPPENED TO YOU

(Scott Turner - Johnny Carver) « © '68 Unart Catalog, BMI »
What if it happened to you
What do you think you would do
You say go on without her with the heart that's broke in two
But what if it happened to you

What makes a heart want to live
When there's no more love left to give
You tell me not to cry but my baby just said goodbye
And what if it happened to you

You say things that will help me today
But tonight will the hurt go away
There she sits with him alone and soon they'll both go home
And what if it happened to you

WITH EVERY HEARTBEAT

(Johnny Carver) « © '67 Tree Publishing, BMI »
With every heartbeat our love is gonna grow
And there's no way to say how much I know
I just know I'll never let you go
With every heartbeat our love is gonna grow

With every kiss it feels so heavenly
And that's the way it's always gonna be
Our love will grow much stronger every day
Here in your arms if where I'm gonna stay

With every heartbeat our love is gonna grow...
[ steel ] Sweetheart as years go by we'll be the same
Our love will be as sweet as falling rain
There'll never be no cause for doubt or fear
Just as long as I can hold you near

With every heartbeat our love is gonna grow...
With every heartbeat our love is gonna grow

FOOL'S NAMES FOOL'S FACES

(Donnie Fritts - Bill Blackburn) « © '67 Screen Gems Music, BMI »
Fool's names fool's faces are bound in public places

I was waitin' in a phone booth expecting a call
When I noticed the names and their numbers scratched on the wall
And my heart skipped a beat I could hardly beileve my eyes
Cause one of the name and numbers I recognized

Fool's names fool's faces are bound in public places
[ steel ] I could tell that her name had been written recently
And I knew that she'd been makin' a fool out of me
Cause under her number somebody wrote another line
It said just call this number if you're looking for a real good time

Fool's names fool's faces are bound in public places
Fool's names fool's faces are bound in public places

I CAN'T TELL MY RIGHT FROM MY WRONG

(Lamar Morris) « © '67 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Street light come on light my way home
Don't leave me in darkness alone
It's not that I'm afraid it's just that I've strayed
Till I can't tell my right from my wrong

The footprints behind me turned backwards
To an old love of yesterday
Well dream in my heart was broken
So in a world of darkness I'll stay

Street light shine down light up the ground
Help me guide my footsteps along
I'm not sure anymore what I'm living for
Since I can't tell my right from my wrong

I'm not sure anymore what I'm living for
Since I can't tell my right from my wrong

DOES HE LOVE YOU LIKE I DO

(Charlie Williams - Scott Turner) « © '65 Central Songs, BMI »
Every day he sends you flowers and calls you on the hour
Does all the things I never thought to do
When you're goin' out he's never late
If I came at home I made you wait
But tell me does he love you like I do

Oh to have you in my arms again I'd give all I've got
But don't you see I just can't be something that I'm not
He knows the proper things to say sends cards on every holiday
But does that really mean so much to you

All these sins are nice I know but later on when the lights are low
Tell me does he love you like I do
[ piano ] All those sins are nice I know but later on when the lights are low
Tell me does he love you like I do

YOU ARE THAT SOMETHING

(Scott Turner - Johnny Carver - Virginia Russell) « © '67 Unart Catalog, BMI »
You're something different that never came my way
A special girl that I can learn to love more everyday
Something changed inside me the day you came along
You are that something I can't put my fingers on
[ piano ] You're what I needed you're just my kind of girl
So twistly round your fingers then lead me to your world
I sure found something when you came along
You are that something I can't put my fingers on
You are that something I can't put my fingers on

SURE AS DEATH AND TAXES

(Bobby Sykes) « © '67 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
As sure as death and taxes I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna come and get you from the wrong side of the track
Gonna make you realize you're still in love with me
Sure as death and taxes wait and see

Well they say that death and taxes are the only things they're certain
Death and taxes ain't the reason my poor heart is hurtin'
One I love just left and left me lonely and blue
So there's just one thing left for me to do

As sure as death and taxes I'm gonna get you back...
[ guitar - steel ] I pay the taxes till my full pocketbook is hurtin'
When I get to all the pay I know I'll die for certain
But in this crazy life of strife is one thing that I claim
That's a woman that still wears my name

As sure as death and taxes I'm gonna get you back...
Just as sure as death and taxes wait and see

IF WE'D LET US

(Bobby Braddock - Buddy Mize) « © '67 Mariposa Music, BMI »
Oh we could be so happy if we'd let us

I've given all to you that I can give you
And you're telling me you've done the same
One of us is always givin' heartaches
When either one of us will take the blame

Oh we could be so happy if we'd let us
There's too much love invested for us to give up
We just can't walk away and forget us
Oh we could be so happy if we'd let us

We left our pride disguised our real feelings
We left our hearts standin' in each other's way
Misunderstanding's caused needless teardrops
And tear down our love a little more each day

Oh we could be so happy if we'd let us...
Oh we could be so happy if we'd let us
