LEAVIN' TOWN

(Bobby Bare) « © '65 Central Songs, BMI »
There she goes again see her smiling
So happy with the new love that she's found
See her whisper in my ear all those things I used to hear
Oh how that hurts me so I'm leavin' town
She's the reason why I'm leavin' town

I'm going far away where no one knows me
When morning comes well I won't be around
To see her whisper in his ear kiss and call him dear
Oh I can't stand that so I'm leavin' town
Bet she's even glad I'm leavin' town
[ guitar ] I'm going far away where no one knows me
When morning comes well I won't be around
To see her whisper in his ear kiss and call him dear
Oh I can't stand that so I'm leavin' town
Packin' up my hurt and leavin' town
Mhm leavin' town bet she's even glad I'm leavin' town

TIME TO BUM AGAIN

(Harlan Howard) « © '64 Bramble Music, BMI »
Woman you get meaner every day and your naggin' is hard to stand
So I'll pack my things and I'll be on my way cause it's time to bum again
This house gets smaller with every day and the walls are closin' in
I guess I've said all there is to say and it's time to bum again

The time has come to bum again I'm gonna see all the places I ain't been
Woman you've stirred up the wild wild wind and it's time to bum again
[ ac.guitar ] I'll visit my buddy out in Bakersfield we soldiered together years back
We'll talk night and day till there's no more to say then I'll head on down the track
I may come back in a year or two and you may not desire me then
There are some things that a man must do and it's time to bum again

The time has come to bum again...
Woman you've stirred up the wild wild wind and it's time to bum again

IF YOU REALLY WANT ME TO I'LL GO

(Delbert McClinton) « © '65 Gold Rhyme Music, BMI »
If you really want me to I'll go
It's not that I want to but I'll go
If you've found somebody who could love you more than me
If you really want me to I'll go

I don't know just what you're tryin' to do
You told me that your love for me was true
I don't understand my love please tell me what to do
If you really want me to I'll go

I need you more than you know ask me to do anything but go
I can hardly talk afraid I'll cry just can't bring myself to say goodbye
Don't tell me that it's over I don't wanna know
If you really want me to I'll go
[ ac.guitar ] I need you more than you know...
If you really want me to I'll go

BABY DON'T BE LOOKING IN MY MIND

(Harlan Howard) « © '65 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Baby don't be looking in my mind
You might not like what you find
For honey I know you better than you think I do
So baby don't be looking in my mind

Don't expect sweet I-love-you's on and on
If I didn't love you I'd be gone
Don't change the way I live just take what I can give
And baby don't be looking in my mind

Don't expect my every thought to be of you
For I'm a man and men have things to do
I'm proud to be your man and I love you all I can
But baby don't be looking in my mind
[ ac.guitar ] Don't expect my every thought to be of you...
Baby don't be looking in my mind

BUT THAT'S ALL RIGHT

(Autry Inman) « © '65 Tree Publishing, BMI »
I gave my heart I gave my all you built me up then you let me fall
You wore my ring upon your hand but then you changed your mind
But that's all right I looked around and found true love
[ ac.guitar ] You made me laugh you made me cry I wished that day that I could die
You never dreamed that by and by I'd be glad you changed your mind
Yes that's all right I looked around and found true love

TIME WILL TELL THE STORY

(Waylon Jennings) « © '65 Tree Publishing, BMI »
It seems I see you everywhere you and your new lover there
Time will tell the story of your new love
Do you think he'll ever be the man you've tried to make of me
Time will tell the story of your new love

The day when he's a used-to-be he'll be just as blue as me
Losing all that he dreams of
Time is all it takes to tell the story that I know so well
Time will tell the story of your new love
[ ac.guitar ] The day when he's a used-to-be...
Time will tell the story of your new love
Time will tell the story of your new love

YOU'RE GONNA WONDER ABOUT ME

(Mel Tillis) « © '65 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
Pretty soon this old town I'll be leaving
And I'm going just as far as I can go
Cause ever since you've put me down I can't stand to stay around
This old town and all the friends we used to know

And when that old north wind comes a howlin'
And your cold arms long for company
When the moon peeps through the pines
And there's mem'ries on your mind
You're gonna wonder about me
Babe you're gonna wonder about me
[ harmonica ] Pretty soon you may find that you miss me
But by then I'll be many miles away
I may be in Baltimore with old friends I knew before
I don't know if that's for sure I can't say

But when that old north wind...
Babe you're gonna wonder about me
You're gonna wonder about me
Babe you're gonna wonder about me

FOR LOVIN' ME

(Gordon Lightfoot) « © '65 WB Music Co, ASCAP »
That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me
Everything we had is gone if you can see
That's what you get for lovin' me

Don't you shed a tear for me
I ain't the love you thought I'd be
I've had a hundred just like you but don't be blue
I'll have a thousand before I'm through

That's what you get for lovin' me...
[ guitar ] There you go you're cryin' again
You should have known how things would end
But someday when your poor heart is on the mend
I just might pass this way again

That's what you get for lovin' me...
That's what you get for lovin' me

ANITA YOU'RE DREAMING

(Waylon Jennings - Don Bowman) « © '65 Irving Music, BMI / Parody Publishing, BMI »
Anita come closer stop crying and listen to me
I guess it's too late now but somehow I must make you see
What we thought was our world was only a dream world
And we just can't go on like this
Anita you're dreaming of a world that can never exist

Anita it's over there's nothing that's left now to say
Anita you're dreaming and I know it's better this way

Anita come closer and close your pretty blue eyes
Your young dreams just can't be and somehow you must realize
That each time you're with me my conscience reminds me
Of someone who's waiting alone
Anita you're dreaming and when you awake I'll be gone

Anita it's over there's nothing...

DOESN'T ANYBODY KNOW MY NAME

(Rod McKuen) « © '65 Almo Music, ASCAP »
I've been away for so long fought a war that's come and gone
Doesn't anybody know my name
My sister upped and wed mom was sick and took to bed
And my old dog Red's gone lame

Please tell me if you can what time the trains roll in
(Two ten six eighteen) ten forty four

This old house is falling down there ain't no need in me for hanging round
Doesn't anybody know my name
The girl I left behind she's gone with this friend of mine
I don't have to see a sign to know things ain't the same

Please tell me if you can...

You can't get far away on just a soldier's pay
Doesn't anybody know my name
Used to be when I could see everybody wanted me
Guess nobody cares to see a blind man catch a train

Please tell me if you can...

FALLING FOR YOU

(Ralph Mooney) « © '64 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
You bring me happiness then leave me loneliness
My world is in distress yet I keep falling for you
You look into my eyes and tell the sweetest lies
You're a heartbreak in disguise yet I keep falling for you

Oh darling when you're near my world is happy dear
But when you disappear I don't know what to do
I love in misery you're so unfair to me it's such a mystery
Why I keep falling for you
[ guitar ] Oh darling when you're near...
It's such a mystery why I keep falling for you

I WONDER JUST WHERE I WENT WRONG

(Waylon Jennings - Don Bowman) « © '65 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Your love I'm no longer sure of
Seems there's times you'd rather be alone
And if I'm losing you tell me what did I do
Oh I wonder just where I went wrong

Even though I still feel the same
I can't help but feel I'm to blame
Have I done all that I can do to show my love for you
Oh I wonder just where I went wrong
[ organ ] Even though I still feel the same...
Oh I wonder just where I went wrong
