YOU'RE EASY TO LOVE

(Dave Burgess) «© '63 C Minor Music, BMI »
Well it's easy for me to be true depend on me
I'll always be faithful to you honey you just wait and see
I'll never have a roving eye my love for you will never die
And honey here's the reason why you're easy to love

You made me happy as I could be I'm satisfied
I hope you're just as happy with me you know how much I've always tried
Here's another thing for you to know my love for you is going to grow
And every day I'm going to show you're easy to love

It makes me oh so proud just to be with you
And it's a mighty good feeling to know you feel the same way too
Well you've answered every one of my dreams they've all come true
The world's a better place it seems every since I met you
And here's the last thing I'd like to say thanks so much for loving me this way
And promise me you'll always stay so easy to love
[ guitar ] And here's the last thing...
You're easy to love so easy to love

MY DREAMS TELL IT LIKE IT WAS

(Betty Jean Robinson - Barbara Albert) «© '72 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
My dreams tell it like it was but my eyes see it like it is

Seems like only yesterday when I had everything
But today I can't face the hurt tomorrow bring
For reality and yesterday is all there is
My dreams tell it like it was but my eyes see it like it is

All I ever wanted in my life was you
Now there's nothing left worth looking forward to
Except the past that's full of broken promises
My dreams tell it like it was but my eyes see it like it is
[ guitar ] I pretend your arms are holding me so tenderly
And each embrace I've locked away in memory
For only in my dreams your love brings happiness
My dreams tell it like it was but my eyes see it like it is
All I ever wanted...

TOP OF THE MORNING

(Arthur Leo Owens - Dennis Knutson) «© '75 Tree Publishing, BMI »
I'm wakin' up to sunshine blue skies and happy times knowin' that she's by my side
Morning comes creeping she's still sleeping wake up it's time sleepy eyes
Outside our window the blue skies are dawnin' the sunshine is peeking through
The redbird's a singing happiness a ringing top of the morning to you

Tick tock the time is flyin' by Lord knows that I love you so
Tick tock the time has passed us by wish you didn't have to go
Outside our window the sunshine is playin' a peek-a-boo game to the tune
Of redbirds a singing happiness a ringing top of the morning to you
[ guitar ] I lay here in silence of love's sweet alliance a fantasy dream world come true
Door bell's a ringin' it's time to stop dreamin' and we've got the world yet to do
Outside our window the sunshine is playin' a peek-a-boo game to the tune
Of redbirds a singing happiness a ringing top of the morning to you

Tick tock the time is flyin' by...
Redbirds a singing happiness a ringing top of the morning to you

I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW

(Betty Jean Robinson) «© '74 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
I want you to know if things should go wrong
As you walk through your world if you're walking along
Give me your burden I'll carry your load
Remember I love you I just want you to know

Whatever you do or whatever they say
There's someone believing in you all the away
Anytime you feel lonely or need someone to hold
Remember I love you I just want you to know

I want you know when we're far apart
When I cannot steal to you heart to heart
If warm lips should whisper sweet words that aren't so
Remember I love you I just want you to know
Remember I love you I just want you to know

FOLLOW ME

(John Denver) «© '70 Cherry Lane Music, ASCAP / Dimensional Music Of 1091, ASCAP »
It's by far the hardest thing I've ever done
To be so in love with you and so alone

Follow me where I go what I do and who I know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down all the way and all around
Take my hand and I will follow too

It's long been on my mind you know it's been a long long time
I'll try to find a way that I can make you understand
The way I feel about you just how much I need you
To be there where I can talk to you when there's no one else around
Follow me where I go...

You see I'd like to share my life with you and show you things I've seen
Places where I'm going to places where I've been
To have you there beside me and never feel alone
And all the time that you're with me then we will be at home

Follow me where I go what I do and who I know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down all the way take my hand and I will follow too

MERRY-GO-ROUND OF LOVE

(Robert Lee Floyd) «© '74 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Here we go round the merry go round the merry go round of love
Round and around the merry go round findin' true love sure is tough
Some people fallin' off some are gettin' on some are gettin' ready to jump
Here we go round the merry go round the merry go round of love

I just got off of the merry go round and my heart was startin' to mend
The last ride I had was awful bad I swore I'd never get on again
Then I met a little girl and she gave me a whirl now I'm off for another ride
I guess I'll be riding the merry go round till the day I die

Here we go round the merry go round...
How long will I ride the merry go round how long will it be this way
How many times will it go round and round before I find a girl who'll stay
Everytime I think about a true love and my riding days are done
Along comes a man who takes her by the hand and I'm back where I started from

Here we go round the merry go round...
Here we go round the merry go round the merry go round of love

COLORADO COUNTRY MORNING

(Johnny Cunningham - Bob Duncan) «© '73 Bridge Building Music, BMI / Glenwood Music, ASCAP »
Looking through the window of the greyhound station down in San Antone
Watching people come and people go and feeling so alone
And every face I see reminds me of the one I've left behind me crying
Knowing I should go back home and heaven knows how hard I'm trying

To see that Colorado country morning with the dusty roads and warm sunshine
I've got the Colorado country morning and a Denver woman on my mind
[ fiddle ] I remember standing at the door and looking back as she lay sleeping
And very gently through the window pane the morning sun was creeping
And without a sound I turned around and softly kissed her goodbye
Now with all behind I often find myself wondering why
I left that Colorado country morning...
I left that Colorado country morning...

I ALMOST LOST MY MIND

(Ivory Joe Hunter) «© '49 Unichappell Music, BMI »
When I lost my baby I almost lost my mind
When I lost my baby I almost lost my mind
My head is in a spin since she left me behind
(It's killin' me) I pass a million people I can't tell who I meet
I pass a million people don't know who I meet
Cause my eyes are full of tears where can my baby be
(Pick it son) [ guitar ] I went to see the Gypsy and I had my fortune read
I went to see the Gypsy had my fortune read
Then I hung my head in sorrow when she said what she said
(What she said honey) Now I can tell you people the news was not so good
Now I can tell you people the news was not so good
She said your baby's done and quit you this time she's gone for good

SHE EVEN WOKE ME UP TO SAY GOODBYE

(Mickey Newbury - Doug Gilmore) «© '69 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Morning's come and Lord my mind is aching
The sunshine's standing quietly at my door
Just like the dawn my heart is silently breaking
With my tears it goes tumbling to the floor
Once again this whole town will be talking
Lord I've seen that pity that's in their eyes
They couldnever understand it's her sorrow and not a man
No matter what they say I know she tried

Baby has packed her soft things and she's left me
But I just know she never meant to make me cry
It's not her heart it's just her mind she didn't mean to be unkind
Why she even woke me up to say goodbye
[ dobro ] Baby has packed...

SO GOOD TO BE BACK WITH YOU

(Ruby Moody - Marvin Thompson) «© '74 Hank's Music, BMI »
Always and always I'll love you forever
Oh it's so good to be back with you

The grass looks greener on the other side
I crossed over to the arms of someone new
Searching for something I had all the time
Oh it's so good to be back with you

So good to feel your arms around me again
So good to feel your heart beat with mine
All the bad times are gone I'll be yours from now on
Darling fate has been so kind

Nothing else matters we're together at last
And I know that you love me too
Always and always I'll love you forever
Oh it's so good to be back with you
Always and always I'll love you forever
Oh it's so good to be back with you
