I AIN'T NEVER

(Mel Tillis - Webb Pierce) « © '59 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
Well I ain't never I ain't never
Seen nobody like you no no no never have I ever seen nobody like you

You call me up and say to meet me at nine
I have to hurry hurry but I'm there on time
I walk right up and knock on your door
The landlord says she ain't a here no more

I ain't never oh darling seen nobody like you
Hoo hoo but I love you yeah I love you I love you just the same
[ guitar ] Well you tell me sweet things that you don't mean
You've got me a livin' in a haunted dream
You make me do things I don't wanna do
My friends say oh Webb what's wrong with you

I ain't never oh darling seen nobody like you
Hoo hoo but I love you yeah I love you I love you just the same
I love you just the same I love you just the same

IT'S MY WAY

(Wayne P. Walker - Webb Pierce) « © '56 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI / Songs Of PolyGram, BMI »
I'll live every day for you I'll breath ever breath for you
And if I'm mean and make you blue it's my way of loving you
If I say that you're untrue and it breaks your heart in two
I can't help these things I do it's my way of loving you

Try to understad my love look into my heart
Can't you see I'd want to die if we'd ever part
All my life I'll love you so there'll be times it may not show
That my love for you is true it's my way of loving you

Try to understad my love...

GOTTA TRAVEL ON

(Paul Clayton) « © '60 Sanga Music, BMI »
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
Summer's almost gone yes winter's comin' on
I've laid around and played around this old town too long
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

Papa writes to Johnny but Johnny can't come home
Johnny can't come home no Johnny can't come home
Papa writes to Johnny but Johnny can't come home
Cause he's been on the chain gang too long

I've laid around...

High sheriff and police ridin' after me ridin' after me yeah they're comin' after me
High sheriff and police ridin' after me and I feel like I've gotta travel on

I've laid around...

I wanna see my honey wanna see her bad
Wanna see her bad yeah wanna see her bad
Wanna see my honey wanna see her bad
She's the best girl this poor boy ever had

I've laid around...
And I feel like I've gotta travel on

Each time our fingers touch you know I love you so much
It all depends on you honey what have we gonna do

You're my every dream my every scheme don't ever say goodbye

I'LL NEVER HAVE TO BE ALONE

(Mel Tillis) « © '60 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
One of these days yes I know I'm gonna find me a girl
A pretty little girl a dolly I can call my own
And that'll be the day I'll be sittin' on the top of the world
Me and my girl then maybe baby I'll never have to be alone

I ain't never had a love affair nobody for my very own
The pages are empty in my little black book I walk in the moon alone
One of these days yes I know I'm gonna find me a girl
A pretty little girl then maybe baby I'll never have to be alone
[ guitar ] One of these days the sun's gonna shine right through my front door
A pretty little girl is gonna walk about ten I'll never be lonely no more
And that'll be the day I'll sit on the top of the world
Me and my girl then maybe baby I'll never have to be alone

WHIRLPOOL OF LOVE

(Webb Pierce - Gary Williams) « © '60 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
(Whirlpool whirlpool of love
Everyone says stay away from her door)
You'll end up with heartaches like you ain't before
But I'm lonesome for you in this world that I call a whirlpool of love
(Nothing seems good for me when you're away)
If I'm sad or happy in the night time or day
It all depends on you darling you see in this whirlpool of love

You brought me many heartaches before
But in your heart dear you know
(I am still waiting for you as before)
Soon I'll be knocking on your heart's door
One word from you will set me free from this whirpool of love

You brought me many heartaches before...
(Whirlpool whirlpool of love)

NO LOVE HAVE I

(Mel Tillis) « © '60 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
Honey bee loves the honey chickadee loves the sky
Everybody loves somebody but no love have I no love have I
Standing on the corner lovers pass me by
How my heart is crying cause no love have I no love have I

(Every night in my prayers I pray for some lost love to come my way)
Then we'll spend our lonely hours making love in an ivory tower
Lonely is the city when the moon lights up the sky
But what good is that moonlight if no love have I no love have I

(Every night in my prayers I pray...

IS IT WRONG (FOR LOVING YOU)

(Warner McPherson) « © '60 Unichappell Music, BMI »
Is it wrong for loving you is it wrong for being true
Tell me darling tell me please dear is it wrong
Have I waited for so long has your love for me gone
Is it wrong is it wrong for loving you

Way down deep inside my heart you're the only love sweetheart
Yes the only true love I ever knew
But I ask myself inside no need telling myself lies
Is it wrong is it wrong for loving you

Is it wrong for loving you...
So is it wrong is it wrong for loving you

I'M TIRED

(Mel Tillis - Webb Pierce - Buck Peddy) « © '58 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
Oh Lord I'm tired tired of living this a way
Standing on the corner of a busy street
I'm looking for your face in every crowd I see
Checking every honky tonk in this town
I'm tryin' to find the places that you hang around
(Oh Lord I'm tired tired of living this a way
Oh Lord I'm tired tired of living this a way)

I've been waitin' on you baby night and day
I'm wonderin' if your love will ever come my way
But time's runnin' out and I'm a slowin' down
I'm tired of being just another hang around
(Oh Lord I'm tired tired of living this a way
Oh Lord I'm tired tired of living this a way)

There ain't no happiness in anything I do
I found myself so lonely when I'm not with you
What makes you just a kinda girl a guy will love
You've got so many others that you're thinking of
(Oh Lord I'm tired tired of living this a way
Oh Lord I'm tired tired of living this a way)

POISON LOVE

(Elmer Laird) « © '50 Anne Rachel Music, ASCAP »
(All your poison love has stained the life's blood in my heart and soul dear
And I know my life will never be the same
All my pleas and prayers have been in vain for you and you alone dear
And you know that you are guilty of a shame)

Into each life a love is born for one and one alone dear
The love I chose was surely not for me
But still my heart cries out for you and you alone my darling
And my better judgement tells me to say no

(All your poison love...

IN THE JAILHOUSE NOW

(Jimmie Rodgers) « © '28 Peer International, BMI »
He's in the jailhouse now he's in the jailhouse now
I told him once or twice to quit playin' cards and a shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse now

Well I had a friend named Rambling Bob who used to steal gamble and rob
He thought he was the smartest guy in town
But I found out last Monday that Bob got locked up Sunday
They got him in the jailhouse way downtown

He's in the jailhouse now...
[ piano ] Well I went out last Tuesday I met a girl named Susie
I told her I was the swellest man around
She started to spend my money and she started to callin' me honey
We took in every honky tonk in town

We're in the jailhouse now...
