LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO AROUND

(Jim Anglin) « © '66 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
Love makes the world go around around around
Nothing to take its place has been found
Love makes people happy from a king to a clown
Oh yes love makes the world go around

I know a man now he's old
Spent his all life courting silver and gold
Moneywise he's the richest man in town
Inside his lonely mansion no love can be found

Love makes the world go around around around...
[ steel ] Remember the tragedy of a great movie star
She brought joy to millions was worshiped from afar
It seems she had ev'rything was gifted from above
Yet took her own life she had ev'rything but love

Love makes the world go around...
Yes love makes the world go around

TOUCH MY HEART

(Johnny Paycheck - Aubrey Mayhew - Donny Young) « © '66 Dream City Music, BMI »
Touch my heart feel the hurt it's destroying me
I've tried but I can't seem to shake his memory
Touch my heart feel the hurt the pain and misery
And tell me again what love can do for me

If you lived in my world awhile you'd soon forget how to smile
In my world there's a million ways to cry
If you had my eyes you could see how someone changed my destiny
I'm a girl who can't live and yet can't die
[ steel ] Touch my heart feel the hurt it's destroying me...

I'M LIVING IN TWO WORLDS

(Jan Crutchfield) « © '66 Forrest Hills Music, BMI / Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
I'm living in two worlds dividing my time
Unhappy in your world and lonesome in mine

When I'm in your world I just pretend
That I'm really happy though I don't fit in
Then I drift in my world so cold and alone
I'm living in two worlds where do I belong

I'm living in two worlds dividing my time...

Old friends in your world are new friends to me
So I can't take part in your ole memories
Our love's shared in two worlds that don't turn the same
We each have our own worlds and neither can change

I'm living in two worlds dividing my time...

STAND BESIDE ME

(Tompall Glaser) « © '66 Ensign Music, BMI »
Stand beside me stand beside me
You're the only one who ever made me care

I can't stand to think that I might be alone
Not alone again not the way it was back then
Before you walked into my heart and told me we would never part
So stand beside me don't ever let me be alone again

Stand beside me stand beside me
For if I should lose you I just couldn't get anywhere
Stand beside me stand beside me
You're the only one who ever made me care

There'll be times when ev'rything goes wrong
But darling I won't care if I know you're standing there
No matter what we have to do together we can see it through
So stand beside me and I'll be standing right there next to you

Stand beside me stand beside me...

I'M JUST NOT SMART

(Johnnie Bailes) « © '66 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
So you're gone again out somewhere a rambling
And I can feel that heartache's bout to start
If I was smart with you I'd quit this gambling
But I guess I'm just not smart

I can't help what people say I still love you
They don't know and they can't see what's in my heart
They keep saying if I'm smart that I will leave you
But I guess I'm just not smart
[ piano ] Love like ours just wasn't meant for parting
For it's too deep embedded in my heart
I should have known not to have let it started
But I guess I'm just not smart

I can't help what people say I still love you...

GET YOUR LIE THE WAY YOU WANT IT

(Billy Mize) « © '66 Central Songs, BMI »
Straighten up your tie and comb your hair
Look as though you've spent your time alone
Wash away her lipstick from your collar
Get your lie the way you want it then come on home

Make sure there's no blonde hair on your shoulder
Tear up the name and number of her phone
Smile and don't let on how much you've shame me
Get your lie the way you want it then come on home

Come on home to me to the one who's number two
The one who throws away her pride to keep on loving you
I'll be waiting when you come back from the other love you've known
Get your lie the way you want it then come on home
Get your lie the way you want it then come on home

HURTIN'S ALL OVER

(Harlan Howard) « © '66 Tree Publishing, BMI »
A year ago today I felt like dying
As unloved and unwanted as a heart could be
But time has a way of changing yesterday
Now the hurtin's all over all over me

Yes the hurtin's all over all over my body
It started in my heart and it spread all over me
Father time did his part took the hurt out of my heart
Now the hurtin's all over all over me
[ steel ] Now my arms ache to hold you like they used to do
And my eyes ache for the love light they no longer see
How I miss your caress how my lips ache to be kissed
Yes the hurtin's all over all over me

Oh the hurtin's all over all over my body...
Yes the hurtin's all over all over me

BABY'S COMING HOME

(Dallas Frazier) « © '66 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Tonight baby's coming home

Clean the house and dust the chandelier
Make my face and then comb out my hair
And then I'll put his favorite dress on
Tonight baby's coming home

For a while I thought our love was gone
But both of us now know that we were wrong
No longer will my nights be spent alone
Tonight baby's coming home

For a while I thought our love was gone...
Tonight baby's coming home

THERE GOES MY EVERYTHING

(Dallas Frazier) « © '65 Husky Music, BMI / Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
There goes my only possesion there goes my ev'rything

I hear footsteps slowly walking
As they gently walk across a lonely floor
And a voice is softly saying
Darling this will be goodbye forever more

There goes my reason for living
There goes the one of my dreams
There goes my only possesion
There goes my ev'erything

As my mem'ry turns back the pages
I can see the happy years we had before
Now the love that kept this old heart beating
Has been shattered by the closing of a door

There goes my reason for living...
There goes my only possesion there goes my ev'rything

ONLY ME AND MY HAIRDRESSER KNOW

(Arthur Thomas) « © '66 Johnny Bienstock Music, BMI »
Ev'rybody says I always look so happy
They always tell me you're so good for me
They never see the worry that I try to hide
Cause I keep it covered up so they can't see

It's funny what a little hairdye can do
It can take the years right off of you
But there's one thing that it can't take away
And that's these heartaches that haunt me night and day

My hairdresser covers up the grey
And I paint on a put-on smile to go out ev'ryday
I've kept the hurt concealed the real me never shows
Only me and my hairdresser know
[ guitar ] Appearances can of'en be decievin'
And even though the truth one can hide
But underneath it all the truth is hurting
And as long as I've got make up I've got pride

My hairdresser covers up the grey...
Only me and my hairdresser know

ONCE

(Ted Harris) « © '66 Plainspoken Music, ASCAP »
I was foolish once and I let my once get away

I was happy once you'd never believe it today
I got careless once all at once you got away

Life had beauty once it's not worth living today
I slipped out once all at once you slipped away

Oh great regret like the flavor of wine
Only grows deeper with the passing of time

Life had meaning once it's cold so empty today
I was foolish once I let my once get away
I let my once get away

COMING ON STRONG

(David Wilkins) « © '66 Johnny Bienstock Music, BMI »
Comin' on strong comin' on strong
I can feel the heartaches coming on strong
I can feel the teardrops the pain and sorrow
Ever since you've been gone they've been coming on strong

Pain come on in hello sorrow I see you're back again
Teardrops glad you dropped by cause you can help drown my pride
And since you're here the time seems just fine
To let you know that you're gonna be with me till I lose my mind

You've been gone much too long
And I can feel the heartaches comin' on strong
Only thing you left me was misery for company
And mem'ries of a love gone that wrong keep comin' on strong
And mem'ries of a love gone that wrong keep comin' on strong
