DON'T WORRY BOUT ME
(Marty Robbins)
« © '56 Mariposa Music, BMI / Unichappell Music, BMI »
Don't worry bout me it's all over now
Though I may be blue I'll manage somehow
Love can't be explained can't be controled
One day it's warm next day it's cold
Don't pity me for feeling blue
Don't be ashamed it might have been you
Oh oh oh oh love kiss me one time then go love
I'll understand don't worry bout me
[ piano ]
Sweet sweet sweet love I want you to be
As happy as I when you love me
I'll never forget you your sweet memory
It's all over now don't worry bout me
When one heart tells one heart one heart goodbye
One heart is free one heart will cry
Oh oh oh oh sweet sweet baby sweet baby sweet
It's all right don't worry bout me
(Don't worry bout me)

FUNNY HOW TIME SLIPS AWAY
(Willie Nelson)
« © '61 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Well hello there my it's been a long long time
How am I doing oh I guess that I'm doing fine
It's been so long now and it seems that it was only yesterday
Gee ain't it funny how time slips away
How's your new love I hope that she's doing fine
I heard you told her that you'd love her till the end of time
Now that's the same thing that you told me seems like just the other day
Gee ain't it funny how time slips away
Gotta know now if I'll see you around
Don't know when though I'll never know when I'll be back in town
But remember what I tell you that in time you're gonna pay
And it's surprising how time slips away

LOOKING BACK
(Clyde Otis - Brook Benton - Belford Hendricks)
« © '59 Clyde Otis Music, BMI / Ensign Music, BMI »
Looking back over my life I can see where I caused you strife
But I know oh yes I know I'd never make that same mistake again
Looking back over my deeds I can see signs of wise girl heeds
But if I just have a chance I'd never make that same mistake again
Once my cup was overflowing but I gave nothing in return
Now I can begin to tell you what a lesson I have learned
Looking back over the slate I can see love turn to hate
But I know oh yes I know I'll never make that same mistake again
Once my cup was overflowing...

PADRE
(Alan Romans - Paul F. Webster)
« © '57 Anne Rachel Music, ASCAP »
Padre Padre in my grief I turn to you
The day that we wed you blessed us and said may heaven bestow you grace
There in that holy place we shared our first embrace
Padre Padre what happened to our love so true
Padre Padre in my grief I turn to you
Then she came along and sang him her song and won him with honeyed lies
She ownes the golden eyes now it's my heart that cries
Now I kneel and pray the hours away and weary my heart has grown
Wondering where love has flown counting my tears alone
Padre Padre please tell me how such thing can be
Padre Padre pray for my love and me Padre Padre pray for my love and me

BELLE OF THE BALL
(Harlan Howard - Buck Owens)
« © '62 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Darling oh darling where are you tonight
Don't you even miss me at all
You once danced with me and whispered tenderly
That I was the belle of the ball
The belle of the ball now stands by the wall
You told me you love me and then let me fall
But my heart will yearn until you return
And call me the belle of the ball
[ piano ]
Young lovers dance by me with stars in their eyes
As soft music flows through the hall
I'll keep watching the door till you come back once more
Then I'll be the belle of the ball
The belle of the ball...
Then I'll be the belle of the ball

EVERYBODY LOVES A LOVER
(Richard Allen - Richard Adler)
« © '62 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Everybody loves a lover I'm a lover everybody loves me
Anyhow that's how I feel what I feel just like body and I
I should worry not for nothing everybody loves me yes they do
And I love everybody since I fell in love with you
Who's the most popular personality
I can't help to think it's no one else but me
Gee I feel just about ten feet tall havin' a ball
Well I'll be just like body and I
Everybody loves a lover
[ sax ]
Who's the most popular personality...
I should worry not for nothing everybody loves me yes they do
And I love everybody since I fell in love with
Fell in love with fell in love with you

THIS SAD OLD HOUSE
(Harlan Howard - Carlos Minor)
« © '62 Tree Publishing, BMI »
This sad old house has missed you so
Although you left us long ago
But if you just walk through that door
This sad old old house would smile once more
You ain't contented we were two
We've fell apart when we lost you
Whatever made you hurt a soul
This sad old house would like to know
Each night I always hurry home
In tears it tells me you're still gone
Sweetheart if you walk through that door
This sad old house would smile once more
[ guitar ]
Each night I always hurry home...

HE CALLED ME BABY
(Harlan Howard)
« © '61 Central Songs, BMI »
He called me baby baby all night long
Used to hold and kiss me till the dawn
Then one day I awoke and he was gone
Now there's no more baby baby all night long
He called me baby baby all night long
Kissed my tears away when things went wrong
What I'd give if he'd just come back home
And call me baby baby all night long
[ piano ]
He called me baby baby all night long
Build me up so high and made me strong
Now each time in dreams just like a song
I still hear baby baby all night long

THEY LISTENED WHILE YOU SAID GOODBYE
(Harlan Howard)
« © '62 Vidor Publications, BMI »
The birds stop their singing when I'm passing by
And even the flowers just stand there and cry
But they know the reason I have tears in my eyes
They listened while you said goodbye
You say what you're seeking is over the hill
And that I'll find a new love but I never will
For you didn't know my whole world stood still
And listened while you said goodbye
[ piano ]
The sun has stopped shining the moon hides its face
He promised so much now he hides in disgrace
I guess all creation was there that night
And listened while you said goodbye
You say what you're seeking...

YOU'D BETTER GO
(Harlan Howard - Wynn Stewart)
« © '58 Central Songs, BMI »
You'd better go each moment that you linger
Makes me forget his ring is on my finger
We love each other that I knew so we must draw the line
You'd better go before I change my mind
You'd better go for I'm afraid your charms
We'll shatter my resistance and I'll end up in your arms
He loves me so and dear you know I hate to be unkind
You'd better go before I change my mind
[ ac.guitar ]
To keep you here would thrill me be unmeasured
But we're not always free to do the things that bring us pleasure
He loves me so and dear you know we'd hate ourselves in time
You'd better go before I change my mind
You'd better go before I change my mind

IS THIS MY DESTINY
(Helen Carter)
« © '57 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Cursed with sorrow pain and woe full of feeling I can't show
Hopeless love what else for me is this my destiny
I know God has surely made for every man somewhere a maid
Someone stole my love from me is this my destiny
At night I cry and wonder why I must live while others die
The grave would be escape from this my destiny
[ piano ]
At night I cry and wonder why...
From this my destiny

HEARTACHES BY THE NUMBER
(Harlan Howard)
« © '59 Tree Publishing, BMI »
(Heartaches by the number heartache number one two three)
Heartache number one was when you left me
I never knew that I could hurt this way
Heartache number two was when you came back again
You came back but never meant to stay
Now I've got heartaches by the number troubles by the score
Every day you'd love me less each day I love you more
I've got heartaches by the number a love that I can't win
But the day that I stop counting that's the day my world will end
Heartache number three was when you called me
You said you were coming back to stay
With hopeful heart I waited for your knock on the door
I waited but you must lost your way
Now I've got heartaches by the number...
