CHEATING GAME
(Dennis Knutson - Bonnie Guitar)
« © '73 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Break a heart and laugh and walk away of true love you've made a mockery
Free to go knowing next time you'll pay the price for your common vice
The cheating game
Love and lies go hand in hand your love goes free like wind blow sand
Seeking out unwary prey teaching them the way you play
The cheating game
Who knows the mind of the cheating kind who's blocked the shadows from sight
Who's gonna pay the price to make the wrong seem right
You're gonna go act free to live a life without a blame
While I reap the harvest of heartaches from the cheating game
You planted the seed now I must sow my love alone to make it grow
Carrying the only thing you left me a legacy
From the cheating game
The web of dreams you weave so well was casting to die for my private cell
Taking love forsaking love making me a viction of the cheating game
Who knows the mind of the cheating kind...

KANSAS CITY SONG
(Buck Owens - Red Simpson)
« © '70 Tree Publishing, BMI »
For two long weeks you're goin' to Kansas City
And I'm sure to goin' to miss you while you're gone
This ol' time will seem to die without you
But it will sure come to life when you come home
So take care of you for me in Kansas City
And honey call me every now and then
Take care of you for me in Kansas City
Cause I'll miss you till you're in my arms again
Now honey watch those Kansas City cuties
And don't let them fool you with their charms
Have a lot of fun but remember that I love you
And I'm waitin' here with my two empty arms
So take care of you for me in Kansas City....
[ steel ]
Now I ain't never been to Kansas City
But I've heard stories about the guys that's gone
So if you just got to go to Kansas City
Take your time a gettin' there but hurry home
And take care of you for me in Kansas City...
Yes I'll miss you till you're in my arms again

WHEN YOU GET BACK FROM NASHVILLE
(Buck Owens - Bob Morris)
« © '73 Tree Publishing, BMI »
When you get back from Nashville
Darling then will you settle down
Hang up your guitar forget being a star
When you get back from Nashville town
Tammy is eight she'll be in upper grade
And Billy's just starting to school
We tag along while you sing your songs
Because we believe so in you
Fortune and fame has been your first name
But maybe God never meant it to be
So darling come home and sing us your songs
Cause you'll always be famous with me
When you get back from Nashville...
When you get back from Nashville town

WHEN YOU GET TO HEAVEN (I'LL BE THERE)
(Buck Owens)
« © '73 Tree Publishing, BMI »
When you get to heaven I'll be there
If I should go first and have to leave you
To face this life alone with all its cares
Darling don't forget you'll find me waiting
To help you climb up heaven's golden stairs
When you get to heaven I'll be waiting
When you get to heaven I'll be there
Just inside the pearly gates darling that's where I'll wait
When you get to heaven I'll be there
[ guitar - steel ]
Sometimes this old road gets rough and rocky
Sometimes you may wonder what's the use
But darling keep your chin up and keep smiling
Inside heaven's door I'll wait for you
When you get to heaven I'll be waiting...
When you get to heaven I'll be there

LOVING YOU
(Buck Owens)
« © '73 Tree Publishing, BMI »
You take my breath away each time you touch me
Your kiss is like a kiss of morning dew
I fall apart inside each time you hold me
It's like a rushing time loving you
Loving you is the only thing I want to do
Loving you is what God intended me to do
So help me to survive to stay close by your side
And let me live my life loving you
Loving you is the only thing I want to do...
And let me live my life loving you

BIGGEST STORM OF ALL
(Buck Owens - Gene Price)
« © '69 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Mama said it was raining on the day that I was born
And it rained the day that daddy passed away
Now everytime it rains it tears into my brain
And today is gonna be a rainy day
On the day I first met you I thought my life would change
Your shining face turned all the clouds away
Now as I sit here crying the clouds are back again
And today is gonna be a rainy day
It's gonna rain today cause you just walked away
The clouds are here and still the rain will fall
And the rain that falls today will wash my world away
And this will be the biggest storm of all
Yes this will be the biggest storm of all

LOVE'S GONNA LIVE HERE
(Buck Owens)
« © '64 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Oh the sun's gonna shine in my life once more
Love's gonna live here again
Things are gonna be the way they were before
Love's gonna live here again
Love's gonna live here love's gonna live here
Love's gonna live here again
No more loneliness only happiness
Love's gonna live here again
[ guitar - steel ]
I hear bells a ringing I hear birds a singing
Love's gonna live here again
I hear bees a humming and I know the days're coming
Love's gonna live here again
Love's gonna live here love's gonna live here...
Love's gonna live here again
