YES MR. PETERS

(Steve Karliski - Larry Kolber) « © '65 Screen Gems Music, BMI »
Hello (hello dear will the same place be alright)
Yes indeed Mr Peters I can work late tonight
(Dear is she near can't she hear what you say)
You're right Mr Peters and I'm leaving right away

(Are you sure she's not listening on the other line)
No of course not Mr Peters you can call me anytime
(What if she knows just where you go each time you get my call)
Don't worry Mr Peters cause my wife don't mind at all

(Please hurry up dear cause I'm so in love with you)
I know exactly how you feel cause I feel the same way too

(Tell me dear how much longer must we live this line)
I don't know Mr Peters but I should be there by nine
(Well don't be late I can't wait to be with you once more)
Don't worry Mr Peters I'm just headin' for the door
Well yes Mr Peters I'm just headin' for the door

ONE BY ONE

(Johnny Wright - Jack Anglin - Jim Anglin) « © '53 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
One by one we've broke each vow we made
(It was you who lied it was me who paid)
As sure as there's a heaven beyond the sun
We'll pay for our lies one by one

My plans and hopes have tumbled down
My castle of dreams plunged to the ground
(How can you face me after what you've done
You've shattered my dreams one by one)

One by one we've broke each vow we made...
[ piano ] How can you go to sleep at night
Don't know mem'ries make you long for daylight
(You'll pay the price after having your fun
You'll regret each mistake one by one)

One by one we've broke each vow we made...

BACK STREET AFFAIR

(Billy Wallace - Jimmy Rule) « © '52 Unichappell Music, BMI »
You didn't know I wasn't free when you fell in love with me
And with all your young heart you learned to care
(It brought me shame and disgrace the world has tumbled in my face)
Cause they call our love a back street affair

They say you wrecked my home I'm a husband that's gone wrong
They don't know the sorrow that we've had to bear
(For the one you're tied to was the first to be untrue)
Yes they call our love a back street affair
[ steel ] We have each other now that's all that matters anyhow
Oh the judgement of gossip's never fair
We'll just be brave and strong then someday they'll see they're wrong
Let 'em call our love a back street affair

When all the talk has died away and they've got nothing left to say
And the happiness we've hoped for then we'll share
We'll climb a mountain high and the world will hear us cry
That our love is not a back street affair

TROUBLE ON OUR LINE

(Dixie Dean - Robert A. King) « © '65 Shelby Singleton Music, BMI »
Just thought I call to see if you're alone
(Yes I am he just went out to use the phone)
How do you know (he asked me for a dime)
Yes I did and we've got trouble on our line

Trouble on our line yes the phone I rang was mine
And now we both got trouble on our line

Now you found out the foolish thing I tried to do
(And you know that I've been cheating just like you)
I guess that I just had our number on my mind
The way we found that we've got trouble on our line
[ steel ] Trouble on our line because the phone I rang was mine
We found that we've got trouble on our line
We found that we've got trouble on our line

WE MUST HAVE BEEN OUT OF OUR MINDS

(Melba Montgomery) « © '63 Glad Music, BMI / Pappy Daily Music, BMI »
We said our goodbyes long ago
Never thinking we'd miss each other so
All the memories we can't leave behind
Oh we must have been out of our minds

(I thought I loved another not you)
How foolish I thought the same too
They both turned out to be the wrong kinds
Oh we must have been out of our minds
[ steel ] Let's forgive and forget the past we've known
And reap together the wild seeds we've sowed
Surely they can forgive us and find
Oh we must have been out of our minds

(I thought I loved another not you)...
Yes we must have been out of our minds

JUST BETWEEN THE TWO OF US

(Liz Anderson) « © '64 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Just between the two of us let's live up this fantasy
For we no longer care enough to even disagree

People think it's wonderful our love can be so true
(You never say an angry word no matter what I do)
And you have so much faith in me you trust me enywhere
(But the reason if they only knew is that we just don't care)

Just between the two of us let's live up this fantasy
For we no longer care enough to even disagree
[ piano ] Everybody envies us and the way we get along
(But between the two of us we know our love is gone)
I wish we could go back again to days that used to be
(We fought a lot but even then I knew you cared for me)

Now we get along so well no teardrops ever fall
But there's no love no anything there's nothing left at all
Everybody envies us and the way we get along
But just between the two of us we know our love is gone

WE MUST LOOK IN THE MIRROR

(Curly Putman) « © '65 Tree Publishing, BMI »
It's like heaven for me to be near you
(And I try hard to put thoughts of home behind)
While holding you I feel no shame in the things we do
But tomorrow's dawn will bring our hearts a change of mind
For we must look in the mirror tomorrow at our sorrow and at ourselves
[ steel ] It's so wrong but my love was never stronger
(But in your arms this wrong always seems so right)
I don't see how this can go on any longer
So let's say goodbye and let it in tonight
For we must look in the mirror tomorrow at our sorrow and at ourselves

SLIPPIN' AROUND

(Floyd Tillman) « © '49 Peer International, BMI »
Seems we always have to slip around to be together dear
Slippin' around afraid we'd might be found
I know I can't forget you and I've gotta have you near
So we'll just just have to slip around and live in constant fear

Though you're tied up with someone else and I'm all tied up too
(I know we've made mistakes dear but I'm so in love with you)
I hope someday I'll find a way to bring you back to me
Then we won't have to slip around to share our company
[ piano - steel ] Oh you're tied up with someone else...

WE COULDN'T TELL A CHILD

(Ralph Davis - Pete Drake) « © '65 Careers Music, BMI »
We weren't afraid to face the world but we couldn't tell a child

I'm glad that I have told you all about her
(And I told you about him without a doubt)
Our cheating's reached the point it's breaking up our home
And there's one who's got to know that we've left out

How can you tell a child you don't love his mommie
(If I say I don't look back would you realize)
We didn't care who knew about the way we live
We weren't afraid to face the world but we couldn't tell a child

We've known for so long our love was over
But there's one thing that we've just pushed aside
We couldn't tell the one that needed most to know
We weren't afraid to face the world but we couldn't tell a child
We weren't afraid to face the world but we couldn't tell a child

DON'T LET ME CROSS OVER

(Penny Jay) « © '62 Troy Martin Music, BMI »
Don't let me cross over love's cheatin' line

I'm tempted my darling to steal you away
Don't let me cross over stay out of my way
You know that I love you and I'm not the stealing kind
But I'm faced with heartaches at love's cheatin' line

Don't let me cross over love's cheatin' line
You belong to another and can never be mine
I know one step closer would be heaven divine
Don't let me cross over love's cheatin' line
[ steel ] (I've tried to forget you but what else can I do
When your eyes keep saying that you love me too
I know if I lose you not a dream will I have left
I don't want to cheat dear but I can't help myself)

Don't let me cross over love's cheatin' line...

LET'S DO WHAT'S RIGHT EVEN IF IT'S WRONG

(Bob Morris - Faye Hardin) « © '65 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Let's do what's right even if it's wrong

Our hearts belong together cause we love each other so
But we both belong to someone else and they must never know
We know our love will never die but this just can't go on
Let's do what's right even if it's wrong

Let's do what's right even though we're crying
At least we'll know that we're really trying
So let's go back to the homes where we both belong
Let's do what's right even if it's wrong
[ steel ] Let's do what's right even though we're cryin'...

MORE THAN WE DESERVE

(Harry Pryor) « © '65 Funny Farm Music, BMI »
I named my little girl after you (I named my little boy after you)
Now we can hold on to a memory through him and her
I call her name and think of you (I hear his voice and you're there too)
It's just a memory but for you and me it's more than we deserve

We knew we were wrong we both have a home but we didn't change
Now if we talk it right chance's all we might we will have to explain
I call her name and think of you (I hear his voice and you're there too)
It's just a memory but for you and me it's more than we deserve
[ guitar ] We knew we were wrong we both have a home...
