THAT COMPLETELY DESTROYS MY PLANS

(Jan Crutchfield) « © '66 Songs Of Universal, BMI »
(For as long as someone else is there beside you
That completely destroys my plans)

I knew from the first that I loved you
But my heart was yours to command
Now you tell me you think you love another
And that completely destroys my plans

My plans were just to be happy
But now I don't see how I can
For as long as someone else is there beside you
That completely destroys my plans

So I told myself I'll forget you
And I'll do it as fast as I can
But I can't even take down your picture
And that completely destroys my plans

For as long as someone else is there beside you
That completely destroys my plans

/ Port Music, ASCAP JUANITA JONES

(Paul Evans - Paul Parnes) « © '67 De Shufflin Inc, ASCAP / Port Music, ASCAP »
Juanita Carmela Garcia down in Juarez Mexico
Her dark flashing eyes hide a secret she'll never let anyone know
All of the boys down in Juarez won't leave Juanita alone
Cause they don't know that Juanita Garcia is really Juanita Jones

One day from north of the border an outlaw rode into town
He won the heart of Juanita and they hid where they'd never be found
She knew that she shouldn't love him he never could make her a home
But still they married in secret and he changed her name to Juanita Jones

Then down from El Paso a sheriff's posse caught him when he was alone
They filled him with lead and they left him for dead
But he managed to make it back home he said
He said Juanita please listen for I know that I'm losing my life
If you want to hold up your head in this town don't let them know you're my wife

Juanita Carmela Garcia down in Juarez Mexico...
Oh they don't know that Juanita Garcia is really Juanita Jones

TOP OF THE WORLD

(Johnny Irwin) « © '67 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
How's the view from the top of the world
I wonder are you still my girl
From so far above me can you hear my plea
Wait for me at the top of the world

I just thought you might like to know
That someone down here below
Is hopefully climbing the ladder of fortune
Don't step on my fingers don't make me let go

From your view at the top of the world
Do you remember you're still my girl
Or have you forgotten your promise to me
That we'd meet at the top of the world

From so far above me can you hear my plea
Wait for me at the top of the world
Wait for me at the top of the world

NOTE IN BOX NO. 9

(Paul Evans - Paul Parnes) « © '67 De Shufflin Inc, ASCAP / Port Music, ASCAP »
I just came home from a trip where I sang in Minnesota
On to the Grand Ole Opry tonight
And from the stage in the audience I will see my baby
And later I hold her so tight

I miss her so on the road so I'll ask her to marry
And I'll take her along the next time
It feels so good to be back but before the show goes on
I'll check the fan mail in Box No 9

But in Box No 9 was a note in a tear stained letter
And the note says goodbye
I'll never see her again all that's left to call mine
Is the note in Box No 9

(Now here's a fella who's driven many a mile to be with us tonight
Let's give him a big welcome as he steps out
The star of this here Grand Ole Opry Stu Phillips)

Well there's her empty seat I guess there'll be no one out there
To sing my love songs to anymore

She needs someone to love every day so she's found someone new
Who won't leave her to cry

ADIOS ALITA

(Steve Karliski-Joseph Locascio) « © '67 Painted Desert Music, BMI / Mad Hatter Music, BMI »
South of the border there's a small hacienda
Near the lake that's as blue as the Mexican sky
Alita waits here for that happy manana
We swore that we'd share when I kissed her goodbye
She doesn't know that the judge said I'll never go home anymore
The room that I sit in has bars on the window and locks on the door
Got into a fight in Laredo one night and I killed there you see
And when daylight comes the padre and wonder are coming for me

Adios Alita our tomorrows are so far away
Jou te amou Alita our mananas are over today

The jailyard is empty except for the scuffle
I see by the wall with a rope hanging down
The bright Texas morning is still very quiet
The prayer of the padre is the only sound
Each step that I take leads me from my Alita who's waiting for me
Tears fill my eyes as I think of our sweet love that never will be
I know you can't hear me but Alita sweet Alita it's time for goodbye
In a moment or so both the man and his true love are gonna die

Jou te amou jou te amou jou te amou jou te amou
Adios Alita our tomorrows are so far away
Jou te amou Alita our mananas are over today

CASTLE A CABIN

(Larry Butler) « © '67 Tree Publishing, BMI »
She's from a castle I'm from a cabin
No road connecting the two

I remember the first time I saw her the girl with the long golden hair
Her clothes were of velvet silks and satins fit for a princess to wear

How much I wanted to see her in a place with no one around
But with she in white linen me in blue denim
I'd feel like a new tramp in town

She's from a castle I'm from a cabin
No road connecting the two

So you see I have a little to offer as far as silver or gold
All I have is a love for this girl in my heart
That's worth more than riches I'm told

She's from a castle I'm from a cabin
No road connecting the two

OUR LAST RENDEZVOUS

(Wes) « © '67 Writer Share »
The candle on the table still burning
One glass of wine left by you
I guess that you won't be returning
Cause tonight is our last randezvous

Softly the music is playing
Love songs that remind me of you
And I hear those sweet lips still saying
Goodbye it's our last randezvous

I never thought when it started
This would be day it would end
I'm alone and so broken hearted
Cause tonight is our last randezvous
Yes tonight is our last randezvous

VIN ROSE

(Cindy Walker - Stu Phillips) « © '67 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Fill the glasses with sparkling wine and we'll drink to girls we left behind
Play the music and as it plays toast the girls we loved so far away

To the girls in Texas and in Tennessee
Here's too pretty girls wherever they may be
Anywhere the sun sets anywhere it shines
Here's to love and here's to yours and mine

Fill the glasses with Vin Rose sweet and warm as red lips far away
Play the music and we'll pretend they will wait till we come home again
[ piano ] To the girls in Texas and in Tennessee...
Fill the glasses with Vin Rose...

TO GET TO YOU

(Jean Chapel) « © '67 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
I'd walk out on all my friends to get to you
If I lose them all for your love I'll do that too
Guess they mean well when they tell me what to do
But they don't know how far I'll go to get to you

Burning bridges behind me to get to you
Breaking all ties that bind me to get to you
I hold your love far above what I go through
I'd give all I own for a stepping stone to get to you

If it's the last thing I do I'll get to you
Because I know just how much you want me to
You're the only thing that can bring my world in view
Every breath I take every move I make is to get to you

Burning bridges behind me to get to you...

I LOSE MORE GIRLS THAT WAY

(Harlan Howard - Wally Lewis) « © '67 Tree Publishing, BMI »
When I'm out with someone new I forget and mentioned you
And I lose more girls that way
And then sometimes to my shame I have called them by your name
And I lose more girls that way

I compare them all to you but somehow they never do
So I find they never every day
But no matter who I find you'll still be there on my mind
And I lose more girls that way

My heart is an open book they know with just one look
That I'll always love you come what may
Little things they say and do always make me mention you
And I lose more girls that way I lose more girls that way

ANGEL OF LOVE

(Stu Phillips) « © '67 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Angel of love please look and see
There must be someone just for me
Andgel of love look from above
Help me I'm lonely I've got no one to love

Those lights from yonder city don't they make a pretty sight
But I've been there alone before I just walked all night
Angel of love please find someone
It's a world of joy for others but a lonely world for one
[ vibes ] Those lights from yonder city...

ROCK-A-BYE HEARTACHE

(Glenn D. Tubb) « © '67 Combine Music, BMI »
Rock-a-bye heartache she's back again
She comes and she goes like the wild fickle wind
A vagabond dreamer with a heart none can claim
She follows the sunshine runs from the rain

Rock-a-bye heartache let the hurt press now
Things will be fine now the teardrops will thin
Rock-a-bye heartache go off to sleep now
I'll wake you when she's gone again
[ strings ] Rock-a-bye heartache she's in my arms now
Soon she will kiss me I won't need you then
Rock-a-bye heartache go off to sleep now
I'll wake you when she's gone again
