SEVEN LONELY DAYS

(Earl Shuman - Alden Shuman - Marshall Brown)
« © '53 Music Sales, ASCAP »
Seven lonely days make one lonely week
Seven lonely nights make one lonely me
Ever since the time you told me we were through
Seven lonely days I've cried and cried for you

Oh my darlin' I'm cryin' boo hoo hoo hoo
There's no use in denyin' I've cried for you
Was your favorite pass time just a makin' me blue
Last week was the last time I cried for you
[ steel ] Seven hankies blue I filled with my tears
Seven letters too I filled with my fears
Guess it never pays to make your lover blue
Cause seven lonely days I've cried and cried for you

Oh my darlin' I'm cryin' boo hoo hoo hoo...

Seven lonely days make one lonely week...
Seven lonely days make one lonely week...

TODAY I STARTED LOVING YOU AGAIN

(Merle Haggard - Bonnie Owens)
« © '67 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Today I started lovin' you again
I'm right back where I've really always been
I got over you just long enough to let my heartaches mend
Then today I started lovin' you again

What a fool I was to think I could get by
With only these few million tears I've cried
I should have known that the worst was yet to come
And that cryin' time for me had just begun

Today I started lovin' you again...
Yes today I started lovin' you again

ONLY MAMA THAT'LL WALK THE LINE

(Ivy J. Bryant)
« © '67 Central Songs, BMI »
Won't you tell me if you can what's the matter with a man
When he starts stayin' out all night
Should you hit him in the head with a pan of cornbread
Or tell him honey baby that's alright

Cause ever since I was a little bitty teeny girl
He thought he was the only man in this whole world
But now he'd bettter do some thinkin' then he'll find
He's got the only mama that'll walk the line
[ guitar ] A workin' ever day all he wants do is play
I'm tired of him leavin' me alone
I'm comin' unglued from his funny little moods
When he finally thinks of draggin' back home

Cause ever since I was a little bitty teeny girl...
[ guitar ] I keep a packin' up my clothes but ev'rybody knows
That I'm really just a puttin' you on
When I start to walkin' that's when you start a squawkin'
And a beggin' me to come back home

Cause ever since I was a little bitty teeny girl...

INVISIBLE TEARS

(Ned Miller - Sue Miller)
« © '64 Central Songs, BMI »
Invisible tears in my eyes incredible pain in my heart
Indestructable memories are passing in review
Impossible though things may get improbable I will forget
Indelible memories of sweet loveable you

You're back again so I'll let you in
Although I'm only seein' pictures from the past
These arms aren't real but somehow I feel
If I just close my eyes then maybe it will last

Invisible tears in my eyes...

D-I-V-O-R-C-E

(Bobby Braddock - Curly Putman)
« © '68 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Our little boy is four years old and quite a little man
So we spell out the words we don't want him to understand
Like T-O-Y or maybe S-U-R-P-R-I-S-E
But the words we're hiding from him now tears the heart right out of me

Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E becomes final today
Me and little J-O-E will be going away
I love you both and this will be pure H-E double L for me
Oh I wish that we could stop this D-I-V-O-R-C-E

Watch him smile he thinks it's Christmas or his fifth birthday
And he thinks C-U-S-T-O-D-Y spells fun or play
I spell out all the hurtin' words and turn my head when I speak
Cause I can't spell away this hurt that's drippin' down my cheeks

Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E becomes final today...

I'M TIED AROUND YOUR FINGER

(John Paul Jones - Patsy Jones)
« © '68 Careers Music, BMI »
Put me where you want me I'll stay until you call
And when someone throws you over I'll brace you for the fall
I'll help you to forget her when you need sympathy
I'm tied around your finger so you won't forget me

I'm tied around your finger so keep me on a string
And if you ever need me just give my phone a ring
I'm tied around your finger the way I want to be
I'm tied around your finger so you won't forget me
[ piano ] Keep me in a corner but keep me in your heart
Remember that I love you each time the teardrops start
You know where you can find me when her love brings misery
I'm tied around your finger so you won't forget me
I'm tied around your finger so you won't forget me

YOU'RE TELLING ME SWEET LIES AGAIN

(Jack Rhodes - Gertrude Cox)
« © '58 Central Songs, BMI »
I thought any fool could be fooled only once That a burned child remembers the pain
Yet here I am listening with stars in my eyes You're telling me sweet lies again
They're tender and soothing like a kiss to my heart I know that it's healing in vain
The wound will be deepened you'll say we must part You're telling me sweet lies again
[ steel ] Let some angel or fairy come rescue my heart
Wave a wand to change my fate that's so plain
I'm lost in a trance or a spell I can't break You're telling me sweet lies again
They sound so familiar like a book read before I know that the ending's the same
Some magic is holding me spell bound once more You're telling me sweet lies again

YOU KNOW WHERE YOU CAN GO

(John Paul Jones - Patsy Jones)
« © '69 Careers Music, BMI »
You come in at two o'clock and think I'm fast asleep
But I've been sittin' countin' minutes here instead of sheep
And I see red all over your shirt I've had enough and so
I know where you've been and now you know where you can go

You stepped in my life and started steppin' out on me
But I'll be hanged if you can keep me hangin' from your tree
I found out what you've been doin' where you spend your dough
I know where you've been and now you know where you can go

You think I can laugh it off while you carry on
But I was made up of your rib and not your funny bone
If handsome is as handsome does then you're an ugly man
I've taken all this lyin' down so now I'll take my stand
Baby I'm through with you so I'll make like the wind and blow
I know where you've been and now you know where you can go
[ dobro ] You think I can laugh it off...
I know where you've been and now you know where you can go

SOMEONE'S HEARTACHE

(Charlie Louvin)
« © '67 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
There comes someone's heartaches he's walkin' straight to me
Somebody cry a love has died he's somebody's shattered dream
If he should stop at my table will I be the next to cry
Would I be smart to hide my heart and let him walk on by
[ guitar ] I see the trace of teardrops and he wears a phoney smile
He's hungry for a new love but for just a little while
But I can't hide my feelings my loneliness he sees
Here comes someone's heartaches he's walkin' straight to me
Here comes someone's heartaches and he's walkin' straight to me
