DO YOU REMEMBER THESE

(Don Reid - Harold Reid - Larry Lee) « © '72 House Of Cash, BMI »
Saturday morning serials chapters 1 through 15
Fly paper penny loafers Lucky Strike Green
Flat tops sock hops Studebaker Pepsi please
Ah do you remember these

Cigar bands on your hand your daddy's socks rolled down
Sticks snow floats and aviator caps with flaps that button down
Movie stars on Dixie Cup tops and knickers to your knees
Ah do you remember these

The hit parade grape Tru-Aid The Sadie Hawkins Dance
Pedal pushers duck tail hair and peggin' your pants
Howdie-Doodie Tutti-Frutti the seam up the back of her hose
Ah do you remember those

James Dean he was keen Sunday movies were taboo
The Senior Prom Judy's mom rock and roll was new
Cracker Jack prize stars in your eyes as daddy tore the keys
Ah do you remember these

The boogy man lemonade stand and takin' your tonsils out
Hindenburg and wait your turn and four foul balls you're out
Cigarette loads and secret codes and savin' lucky stars
Can you remember back that far

The boat neck shirts and fender skirts and crinoline petticoats
Mum's the word and a dirty bird and a double root beer float
Moon hub caps and loud heel taps and he's a real gone cat
Ah do you remember that

Dancin' close little moron jokes and cooties in her hair
Captain Midnight Ovaltine and the Whip at the County Fair
Charles Atlas Course Roy Roger's Horse and only the Shadow knows
Ah do you remember those

Gable's charm Frog in your arm loud mufflers pitchin' woo
Going steady Veronica and Betty white bucks and Blue Suede Shoes
Knock Knock jokes and who's there Dewey Dewey who
Do we remember these yes we do
Ah do we do we remember these

I'D RATHER BE SORRY

(Kris Kristofferson) « © '71 Combine Music, BMI »
If you hurt me you won't be the first or the last
In the lifetime of many mistakes
But I won't spend tomorrow regreting the past
For the chances that I didn't take

Cause I'll never know till it's over
If I'm right or I'm wrong loving you
But I'd rather be sorry for something I've done
Than for something that I didn't do

When you touch me it's easy to make me believe
Tomorrow won't take you away
But I'll gamble whatever tomorrow might bring
Of a life that I'm living today

Cause I'll never know till it's over...

EVERY DAY WILL BE SUNDAY BYE AND BYE

(Bob Miller) « © '61 MCA Music, ASCAP »
Oh bye and bye bye and bye
Oh when I reach that home byeond the sky
Far from the land of worry and pain sickness will never come again
And every day will be Sunday bye and bye

Bye and bye oh bye bye
Oh when I reach that home byeond the sky
Livin' in sunshine of his love thinkin' of the wonder from above
And every day will be Sunday bye and bye


When I reach that city city so bright and fair
All of my friends and loved ones are gonna welcome me up there
I'm gonna sit down put on my long white robe sit down beside my Lord
And every day will be Sunday bye and bye

Oh bye and bye bye and bye...
Oh bye and bye bye and bye...

SHE THINKS I STILL CARE

(Dickey Lee - Steve Duffy) « © '62 Glad Music, BMI / Pappy Daily Music, BMI / Songs Of PolyGram, BMI »
She thinks I still care

Just because I asked a friend about her
Just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just because I rang her number by mistake today
She thinks I still care

Just because I haunt the same old places
Where the mem'ry of her lingers everywhere
Just because I'm not the happy guy I used to be
She thinks I still care

And if she's happy thinking I still need her
Then let that silly notion bring her cheer
Oh how could she ever be so foolish
Tell me where did she get such an idea

Just because I asked a friend about her
Just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just bacause I saw her then went all to pieces
She thinks I still care
How could she think I still care

GOT LEAVIN' ON HER MIND

(Jack Clement) « © '65 Songs Of PolyGram, BMI »
The longer I know her the more I can tell my darling's not happy with me
The longer I know that I know her too well the less love in her eyes I see

Cause she don't hold and kiss me like she did one time
I think my sweet baby's got leavin' on her mind
[ harmonica ] The stronger I hold her the farther apart my darling is growing from me
The danger of my darling breaking my heart it's fast movin' in on me

Cause she don't hold and kiss me...
She don't hold and kiss me..
She don't hold and kiss me..

I'LL TAKE CARE OF YOU

(Don Reid) « © '72 House Of Cash, BMI / Songs Of Universal, BMI »
When you grow tired of bein' pretty when you grow older and pay your dues
When you grow tired of too much living honey I'll take care of you

I'll make good for you I'll take care of you
When you grow tired of bein' young and all your songs are sung
Honey I'll take care of you

When you grow tired of spending evenings placing twilight to the dew
When you grow tired of wealthy people honey I'll take care of you

I'll make good for you...
Honey I'll take care of you

TAKE ME HOME COUNTRY ROADS

(John Denver - Bill Danoff - Taffy Nivert) « © '71 Cherry Lane Music, ASCAP / Music Of 1091, ASCAP / WB Music, ASCAP »
Almost heaven West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains Shenandoah Valley
Life is old there older than the trees
Younger than the mountains growing like a weed

All my mem'ries gather round her
Miner's lady stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine teardrops in my eye

Country roads take me home to the place I belong
Ol' Virginia mountain mama take me home country roads

I hear her voice in the morning as she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road I get a feeling that I should have been
Home yesterday yesterday

Country roads take me home...
Country roads take me home...
Take me home country roads take me home country roads

DADDY

(Don Reid - Harold Reid) « © '72 House Of Cash, BMI »
His deeds were never published for the public
Things he did were never done for show
His name was never printed in the paper
Until about two days ago

He only filed a short form for his taxes
No one asked him how he felt about the war
He always had a good word for his neighbor
Now his good words won't be heard anymore

And through the rain I heard the choir singing
Nearer my God to Thee
Through the mist I saw some children crying
And I felt nearer my God to Thee

His table was never full of plenty
His silverware was never the real thing
But the tears on the faces of his family
Were just as real as if he been a king

Preacher said he'd always been a good man
But preachers always throw that phrase around
But the tears I tasted gave his words new meaning
Watching old friends puttin' daddy in the ground

And through the rain I heard...

NEVER ENDING SONG OF LOVE

(Delaney Bramlett) « © '71 Unart Catalog, BMI »
I've got a never ending love for you from now on that's all I wanna do
From the first time we met I knew I'd have a never ending love for you

After all this time of being alone
We can love one another feel for each other from now on
Feels so good I can hardly stand it
[ guitar ] I've got a never ending love for you from now on that's all I wanna do
From the first time we met I knew I'd sing my never ending song of love to you

After all this time of being alone...
[ guitar ] I've got a never ending love...
I've got a never ending love...
[ guitar ] That's my my never ending song of love to you

DIFFERENT SONG

(Don Reid) « © '72 House Of Cash, BMI »
I've sung everything from hard times to heaven
To the cold winds that chill my very soul
And I've sung everything from lonely nights and taverns
To dimestore women on the throw
And I've sung everything from sunshine to sadness
From the good life to hells of poverty
But I'll sing a different song and tell a different story
Cause Jesus ain't the different song to me

And he said he'll me meet me in the morning
In the sweet still shadows of his love
He said he'll me meet me in the morning
In the warm soft goodness of his love

SINCE THEN

(Lew DeWitt) « © '72 House Of Cash, BMI »
In my youth I was enchanted took the good good life for granted
Thought the better things were handed out for free
But since then I've learned that living does require a bit of giving
And some things that I'd been missing now I see
And there was a time when I was slow to lend a helping hand
I'm not perfect but I've learned a lot since then

There were times when I thought surely I'd find riches in a hurry
And become the judge and jury of my time
And the life I thought so splended turned before me to be mended
Placing realms where I intended not to climb
And the world that used to fall in step beneath my guiding hands
Is still turning but it's changed alot since then

Since then (since then) I've made a new way
Since then (since then) I've found a new day
Since then (since then) the shackles that bound
I've been (I've been) unshackled (unbound)
Since when my pride was always pushing me to be a bigger man
I'm still trying and I've learned alot since then

Since then (since then) I've made a new way...
I'm still trying and I've learned alot since then
