YOU'RE GONNA BE SORRY

(Dolly Parton) « © '66 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
Someday you're gonna want me but I ain't gonna be around
Someday you'll find you miss the kiss that you're forever turnin' down
When you decide you want the love that once you could've had
Well that's gonna be too bad and you're gonna be sorry

You're gonna be sorry for all the dirty deals you've handed me
All the nights you've stayed away you wish you'd spent with me
While you were busy makin' out I was makin' plans for checkin' out
And when you find this out you're gonna be sorry

You'll wake up crying for me like I've done so many nights for you
You'll walk the floor and you'll call my name but I ain't gonna hear you
You'll curse the night and you'll hate yourself for ever doin' me wrong
But I'm gonna be long gone and you're gonna be sorry

You're gonna be sorry for all the dirty deals you've handed me
All the nights you've stayed away you wish you'd spent with me
While you were busy makin' out I was makin' plans for checkin' out
And when you find I'm gone you're gonna be sorry
You're gonna be sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry

I WISH I FELT THIS WAY AT HOME

(Harlan Howard) « © '67 Tree Publishing, BMI »
If I could be with you forever
My restless heart would never want to roam
I've never been loved the way you love me
I wish I felt this way at home

When you kiss me it's words without speaking
And I don't believe that God would call this wrong
Your arms are the refuge I was seaking
I wish I felt this way at home

But I don't and I won't we did all that we could
He and I we tried hard but it's just no good
I may never be free cause I've no reason
And I don't expect for you to wait that long
But I'll say one more time as I'm leavin'
I wish I felt this way at home
Yes I wish I felt this way at home

FALSE EYELASHES

(Bob Tubert - Demetrius Tapp) « © '67 Vintage Music, BMI »
Folks back home think I'm a star now when they hear my records play
They say their hometown girl made good and should go long long way
Mom wonders why I don't drive back in that big fine car I own
The truth is I don't have a car and I'm ashamed to go back home

A pair of false eyelashes and a tube of cheap lipstick
A pair of worn-out high heel shoes and a dress that doesn't fit
These are all of my possessions all I have to my name
And the record played in my hometown is my only claim to fame

I'm so glad that dad can't see me now his favorite little girl
Singin' in this dingy place on the wrong side of the world
Now I'm glad that I can't see the boy that offered me his name
For I was blind and turned from him in this empty search for fame

A pair of false eyelashes...
Yes the record played in my hometown is my only claim to fame

I'LL OILWELLS LOVE YOU

(Dolly Parton - Bill Owens) « © '66 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
I met a man in Texas and oh he was so fine
And I said to myself self I'm gonna make him mine
He owned a lot of oilwells and his bankroll sure was healthy
I knew that if I married him I'd suddenly be wealthy

Oh I'll oilwells love you and I'll oilwells care
And I'll oilwells need you I want you oilwells dear

Well I never had no money not a penny to my name
And I said I'd find a rich man and I'd love my way to fame
So he took me in his arms I cuddled up real near
The moneybug then bit me and I whispered in his ear

Oh I'll oilwells love you...

He looked into my eyes thought he saw a love light shine
Little did he know that that light was dollar signs
Now that we are married there ain't nothin' left to tell
We'll live happy ever after cause oil is well that ends well

Oh I'll oilwells love you...
I'll oilwells love you...

ONLY WAY OUT (IS TO WALK OVER ME)

(Neal Merritt) « © '67 Central Songs, BMI »
The only way out is to walk over me

So you found someone else and you're going to leave
Did she tell you I don't love you did you really believe
On the floor by the door I'll be down on my knees
Cause the only way out is to walk over me

You don't hear and you don't feel but I know you can see
And just to prove that I love you I'll crawl at your feet
Just look down at the ground where your footprints will be
Cause the only way out is to walk over me

You have put me just as low as anyone ought to go
But I'll lay down beside what's left of my pride
If you go then you'll know cause you can't help but see
That the only way out is to walk over me
[ steel ] You have put me just as low...
Yes the only way out is to walk over me

LITTLE BIT SLOW TO CATCH ON

(Curly Putman) « © '66 Tree Publishing, BMI »
I'm a little bit slow to catch on when I do I'm caught on
A little bit slow to move on
but your baby is a movin' on on your baby is a movin' on

Well I couldn't see the light for the brightness
Of the sweet little smile that you gave me
I couldn't see how you were cheatin' on me
But finally I'm a catchin' on on finally I'm a catchin' on

I'm a little bit slow...
[ steel ] I couldn't see the hurt for the happy
And at first that's the way you made me
It took me a while to get your style
But finally I'm a catchin' on on finally I'm a catchin' on

I'm a little bit slow...

You say you can't see the light for the darkness
That surrounds you since I'm gone
You can't even sleep cause you're lonely
Well finally you're a catchin' on on finally you're a catchin' on

I'm a little bit slow...
I'm a little bit slow...

BRIDGE

(Dolly Parton) « © '67 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
The bridge so high the bridge so tall
Here is where it's started on the bridge
The moon is big and yellow and the stars are all aglow
From the bridge I see reflections in the waters far below
You kissed me for the first time here and held me awfully tight
And the bridge became our favorite place we came here often in the night

And one night while standing on the bridge desire swept through us both
Passion took us by the hand and showed us where to go
From the bridge we saw a meadow so we ran together there
Where we found love together our motions filled the air

The bridge so wide the bridge so long
Where once we stood together tonight I stand alone

Tonight while standing on the bridge my heart is beating wild
To think that you could leave me here with our unborn child
My feet are moving slowly closer to the edge
Here is where it's started and here is where I'll end it

LOVE AND LEARN

(Bill Owens) « © '67 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
That's the way love is you have to love and learn

I've lost again why can't I win
These tears that I cry make my eyes burn
Each new love I find turns out to be the wrong kind
And it looks like I'll just have to love and learn

Love and learn just hurt and yearn
For someone who will love me in return
I'll be hurt many times before the right one I find
But that's the way love is you have to love and learn
[ steel ] Love and learn just hurt and yearn...
Yes that's the way love is you have to love and learn

I'M RUNNING OUT OF LOVE

(Bill Owens) « © '67 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
I'm runnin' out of love and I'm runnin' out of patience
You seem to get worse every day
I'm runnin' out of love better learn to resist temptation
Or someday you wake up and I'll be far away

How long did you think you could keep on doin' me wrong
How long did you think I'd stay quiet and take it
The love I had for you is almost gone
I ain't gonna let you take my heart and break it

I'm runnin' out of love...
[ steel ] You come and go just anytime you want to
And you never bother to tell me where you're going
And I wonder if there's anything you don't do
Someday you'll pay for the wild seeds you're sowin'

I'm running out of love...

JUST BECAUSE I'M A WOMAN

(Dolly Parton) « © '67 Velvet Apple Music, BMI »
I can see you're disappointed by the way you look at me
And I'm sorry that I'm not the woman you thought I'd be
Yes I've made my mistakes but listen and understand
My mistakes are no worse than yours just because I'm a woman

So when you look at me don't feel sorry for yourself
Just think of all the shame you might have brought somebody else
Just let me tell you this then we'll both know where we stand
My mistakes are no worse than yours just because I'm a woman

Now a man will take a good girl and he'll ruin her reputation
But when he wants to marry well that's a different situation
He'll just walk off and leave her to do the best she can
While he looks for an angel to wear his wedding band

Now I know that I'm no angel if that's what you thought you'd found
I was just a victim of a man that let me down
Yes I've made my mistakes but listen and understand
My mistakes are no worse than yours just because I'm a woman
No my mistakes are no worse than yours just because I'm a woman

BABY SISTER

(Shirl Milete) « © '66 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Baby sister what a waste to see you in this place
I lose my mind from worryin' over you
In a barroom filled with people all higher than a steeple
But I know why you do the things you do

And I curse the man that made you what you are today
I hope he dies a thousand times a thousands ways
Your eyes are filled with tears sis let's get out of here
Cause I love you baby sister let's go home
[ steel ] And I curse the man...
Cause I love you baby sister let's go home

TRY BEING LONELY

(Buck Trent - George McCormick) « © '67 Warden Music, BMI »
Suppose you wanted someone the way I want you
Just imagine your body mind and soul breaking in two
Walk the floor each night shed tears you can't conceal
Just try being lonely then you'll know just how I feel

I saw you with your new love and oh it hurt me so
Funny how I see your face ev'rywhere I go
You smiled and looked to be so happy as you passed by
So I hurried around the corner so you wouldn't see me cry

Supposed you wanted someone...
Just try being lonely then you'll know just how I feel
