SOMEDAY (YOU'LL WANT ME TO WANT YOU)

(Jimmy Hodges) « © '54 Songs Of Universal, BMI »
I know that someday you'll want me to want you
When I'm in love with somebody else
You expect me to be true and keep on loving you
Though I'm feeling blue you think I can't forget you

Until someday you'll want me to want you when I'm strong for somebody new
Though you don't want me now I'll get along somehow and then I want want you
[ guitar ] I know that someday you'll want me to want you when I'm strong for somebody new
And though you don't want me now I'll get along somehow and then I won't want you

JUST CALL ME LONESOME

(Rex Griffin) « © '53 Anne Rachel Music, ASCAP »
Why must I love the heartless one who'll never know the harm she's done
Though love is blind I should have known just call me lonesome from now on
I climb the stairs up to my room but no one meets me in my gloom
The silence tells me she is gone just call me lonesome from now on
[ guitar ] These walls will hide me when I cry and hope that heaven lets me die
What good is life when hope is gone just call me lonesome from now on
I pray my memories at last will fade into the distant past
If I must live and love alone just call me lonesome from now on

(NOW AND THEN THERE'S A) FOOL SUCH AS I

(Bill Trader) « © '52 MCA Music, ASCAP »
Pardon me if I'm sentimental when we say goodbye
Don't be angry with me should I cry
When you're gone yet I'll dream a little dream as years go by
Now and then there's a fool such as I


Now and then there's a fool such as I am over you
You taught me how to love and now you say that we're through
I'm a fool but I'll love you dear until the day I die
Now and then there's a fool such as I


Now and then there's a fool...

TILL THE END OF THE WORLD

(Vaughn Horton) « © '56 Southern Music, ASCAP »
Till the star in the sky seems to shine till the sand in the desert grows cold
Till the last petals fall from the roses and the silver in your hair turns back to gold
Till the sun and the moon hide in darkness and we wait for the great light to shine

My darling that's how long I will love you till the end of the world you'll be mine
[ guitar ] Till the sun and the moon...

HOW'S THE WORLD TREATING YOU

(Boudleaux Bryant - Chet Atkins) « © '56 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
I've had nothing but sorrow since you said we were through
There's no hope for tomorrow how's the world treating you
Every sweet thing that mattered has been broken in two
All my dreams have been shattered how's the world treating you

Got no plans for next Sunday got no plans for today
Everyday is blue Monday every day you're away
Though our pathways have partied to your mem'ry I'm true
Guess I'll stay broken hearted how's the world treating you

Do you wonder about me like I'm hoping you do
Are you lonesome without me have you found someone new
Are you burning and yearning do you ever get blue
Do you think of my returning how's the world treating you

THROW ANOTHER LOG ON THE FIRE

(Charles Tobias - Jack Scholl - Murray Mencher) « © '58 Ched Music, ASCAP / Feist Catalog, ASCAP »
Throw another log on the fire keep my golden memories aglow
I don't see the face of my loved one when the love's a burning low
Throw another log on the fire bring back all the sweetest days I've known
When our hearts were young in the springtime and her love was mine alone
There's nothing left but the embers springtime seems so long ago
Throw another log on the fire keep my golden memories aglow
[ guitar ] Throw another log on the fire keep my golden memories aglow

MAKING BELIEVE

(Jimmy Work) « © '54 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Making believe that you still love me it's leaving me alone and so blue
I'll always dream still I'll never own you making believe is all I can do

I can't hold you close when you're not with me
You're somebody's love you'll never be mine
Making believe I'll spend my lifetime loving you making believe
[ guitar ] Making believe I'll never lost you but my happy hour I'll find now so few
My plans for the future will never come true dear
I'm making believe what else can I do

SATAN CAN'T HOLD ME

(Orville Stevens - Frank Kratz - Paul Gilley) « © '59 Tree Publishing, BMI »
When the trumpets are sounded and the judgement we stand
And the Lord up in heaven takes you by the hand
If for things I've done wrong I am sent down below
Satan can't hold me this much I know

Satan can't hold me nobody can angel or devil spirit or man
Through the valleys of darkness I'll come to your side
You are my beacon my love my guide
[ piano ] I will climb over mountains high up in the blue
I'll swim every river that keeps me from you
Till that wonderful day we're together again
Satan can't hold me true love must win

Satan can't hold me...

AM I LOSING YOU

(Jim Reeves) « © '56 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Am I losing you are my fears coming true how I wish I knew am I losing you
Is your love really through is there somebody new tell me what to do am I losing you

Am I too blind to see what's been happ'ning to me
Every road has a bend will I be sweetheart or friend
Will the sweet things you do be for somebody new
Tell me what to do am I losing you

Am I too blind to see...

SCARLET RIBBONS (FOR HER HAIR)

(Jack O. Segal - Evelyn Danzing) « © '57 Mills Music, ASCAP »
I peeked in to say goodnight and then I heard my child in prayer
Send for me some scarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons for my hair
All the stores were locked and shuttered all the streets were dark and bare
In our town no scarlet ribbons no scarlet ribbons for her hair
Through the night my heart was aching just before the dawn was breaking
I peeked in and on her bed in gay profusion laying there
Scarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons pretty scarlet ribbons for her hair
If I live to be a hundred I will never know from where
Came those lovely scarlet ribbons scarlet ribbons for her hair

DEAR HEARTS AND GENTLE PEOPLE

(Bob Hillard - Sammy Fain) « © '59 Better Half Music, ASCAP / Fain Music, ASCAP »
I love those dear hearts and gentle people who live in my hometown
I love those dear hearts and gentle people who never ever let you down
They read the good book from Friday to Monday that's how the weekend goes
I've got a dreamhouse I'll build there one day with picket fence and rambling rose
I feel so welcome each time that I return till my happy heart's laughing like a clown
I love those dear hearts and gentle people who live and love in my hometown
[ piano ] They read the good book from Friday to Monday that's how the weekend goes
I've got a dreamhouse I'll build there one day with picket fence and rambling rose
I feel so welcome each time that I return till my happy heart's laughing like a clown
I love those dear dear hearts and gentle people who'll never ever let you down
They live and love in my hometown

MAY THE GOOD LORD BLESS AND KEEP YOU

(Meredith Wilson) « © '50 Frank Music, ASCAP / Meredith Wilson Music, ASCAP »
May the good Lord bless and keep you whether near or far away
May you find that long awaited golden day today
May your troubles all be small ones and your fortunes ten times ten
May the good Lord bless and keep you till we meet again

May you walk with sunlight shining and a bluebird in every tree
May there be a silver lining back on every cloud you see
Fill your dreams with sweet tomorrows never mind what might have been
May the good Lord bless and keep you till we meet again

(May you walk with sunlight shining) and a bluebird in every tree...
