TONIGHT THE HEARTACHE'S ON ME
(Bob Morrison - Johnny McCrae - Mary W. Francis)
« © '94 Bob Morrison Music, ASCAP / Music City Music, ASCAP »
You could have heard a pindrop when they walked through the door
Had to turn my eyes away my heart fell to the floor
Someone whispered where's your halo she had an angel face
He stood there smiling holding on to the one who took my place
So tonight the heartaches on me on me
Let's drink a toast to the fool who couldn't see
Bartender pour the wine cause the hurtin's all mine
Tonight the heartaches on me
[ steel ]
I wonder if he told her she's the best he's ever known
The way he told me every night when we were all alone
She'll find out when the new wears off he'll find somebody new
She'll learn what heartaches all about and what I'm going through
But tonight the heartaches on me on me...
Yes tonight the heartaches on me

BAD LOSER
(Bill Lloyd - Pam Tillis)
« © '91 Ben's Future Music, BMI / Blackwood Music, BMI / Tree Publishing, BMI »
You're bringing out a side of me I never knew was there
I took pride in cut'n dried goodbyes I never wasted a tear
Living in an easy come easy go world
Look what you've done to this girl
I'm a bad loser when love's worth fightin' for
I'm a bad loser don't wanna ever see you walkin' out my door
[ guitar ]
This love of ours took me by surprise it wasn't part of my plans
Hey ain't it easy sittin' on the fence and ain't it hard to make a stand
You took me farther than I've ever been
And baby now I'm playing to win
Cause I'm a bad loser it's something I can't control
I'm a bad loser I just don't know don't know if I can let you go
I'm good at hangin' when the goin' gets tough
Real good at ridin' when the road is rough
But I'm not perfect baby you're gonna see
After what love's done to me yeah
[ steel ]
Cause I'm a bad loser when love's worth fightin' for...
Oh I'm a bad loser don't wanna ever never gonna let you go
Noo no no I'm a bad loser

TOO GONE TO CARE
(John Scott Shrerrill)
« © '92 New Wolf Music, BMI / Tree Publishing, BMI »
You see that big old yellow cab is always just a call away
And you can catch a Greyhound just about anytime of day
And all along the harbor ships are slipping out of town
Way out on the runway that's where the rubber leaves the ground
She keeps thinking that it's too hard to fake it
When it isn't there
He's gonna tell her he'll be too late to make it
But she'll be too gone to care
They got trains down at the station you know they run all night
They got tail lights on the highway that just keep fading out of sight
There's a boat out on the river just going with the flow
And if all else fails there's always leather on the road
She keeps thinking that it's too hard to fake it...
[ fiddle - steel ]
She keeps thinking that it's too hard to fake it...
Too gone to care too gone to care too gone to care

WHY CAN'T I STOP LOVING YOU
(Michael Henderson - Wally Wilson)
« © '93 Colgems Music, ASCAP / Cross Keys Publishing, ASCAP »
I've put away all the pictures all the old love letters too
Should be nothing to remind me why can't I stop loving you
Right back into circulation even found somebody new
There was always something missing why can't I stop loving you
I can hold back the teardrops I can smile through the pain
But the one thing I can't stop is the echo of your name
[ steel - guitar ]
I can hold back the teardrops...
Honey can't we talk it over must be something we could do
So my heart won't have to wonder why can't I stop loving you
Oh why can't I stop loving you

WHISKEY LIES AND TEARS
(Sam Hogin - Ted Lindsay - Joy Lynn White)
« © '90 Ancient Mystic Music, BMI / Tree Publishing, BMI / Cross Keys Publishing, ASCAP »
I used to love the way you'd call me baby
But now baby just don't sound the same
And I don't see it gettin' any better
With the whiskey your lies and my tears
Well I've almost gone insane tryin' to put up with the pain
What a fool I was to think you'd ever change
I know now love can't win it's got no chance against
All the whiskey your lies and my tears
[ fiddle + steel ]
The last time I said next time is the last time
And the last time came stumbling in last night
So now it's time to say goodbye forever
To the whiskey your lies and my tears
Well I've almost gone insane...
All the whiskey your lies and my tears

WILD LOVE
(Dennis Linde)
« © '94 Blackwood Music, BMI »
You look so out of place in this little country bar
I don't know the circumstances but here you are
Go on and run but you won't get too far
Cause you can't escape my wild love
I work six nights a week waitin' tables here
Always dreamin' someone like you would appear
Now that I've found you let me make it clear
That you can't escape my wild love
Somehow you've ended up on the wrong side of the tracks
Now that I've got you here boy there ain't no turnin' back
We're gonna party till the sun comes up
I'll ride you in my hot pink pickup truck
If you've got other plans then you're just out of luck
Cause you can't escape my wild love
[ guitar ]
Once your big brown eyes adjust to this soft blue neon light
You'll clearly see the one who's gonna rock your world tonight
We're gonna party till the sun comes up...
No honey you can't escape my wild love

BURNING MEMORIES
(Pat McLaughlin - Duke Merrick)
« © '85 Screen Gems Music, BMI / Colgems Music, ASCAP »
I light up my lantern for another night
This old heart of mine ain't feeling right
Seems like all old lovers get to be bad news
The ones you try so hard to hold you turn around and lose
Burning mem'ries to feel the flame
Of a love grown cold no one to blame
Wishful thinking things were still the same
I'm burning mem'ries just to feel the flame
Right outside my window in a blue street light
A couple slowly walking home and holding tight
While my arms are aching it's not my turn
There's just a few more memories I've left to burn
Burning mem'ries to feel the flame...
I'm burning mem'ries just to feel the flame

ON AND ON AND ON
(Bill Anderson)
« © '63 Tree Publishing, BMI »
And this loneliness goes on and on and on
All the things come to an end
Yes that means we'll never love again
The end of our love the end of my dreams
The end of almost everything it seems
Except these heartaches these teardrops
And this loneliness goes on and on and on
On and on and on as if there was no tomorrow
As if the night had come to stay and there would be no dawn
Love has stopped time has stopped
Everything on this earth has stopped
Except these heartaches these teardrops
And this loneliness goes on and on and on
[ steel ]
On and on and on as if there was no tomorrow...
This loneliness goes on and on and on

YOU WERE RIGHT FROM YOUR SIDE
(Jim Rushing)
« © '91 PolyGram Int, ASCAP »
Starin' out an airport window on a morning hard as stone
Watchin' a big Delta Bird taxi through the dawn
A lonely chill sweeps over me as that smokin' liner climbs
You were right from your side I was left from mine
Now you're gone you're flying high above the clouds
And I must walk my tears through this faceless crowd
And in the goodbye atmosphere I can hear a thousand times
You were right from your side I was left from mine
You were a slave to freedom to the highway and the song
My idea of freedom boy was wanting to belong
I was looking for a story Lord not just some old line
You were right from your side I was left from mine
Now you're gone you're flying high...
Oh yes you were right from your side I was left from mine

I AM JUST A REBEL
(Bob DiPiero - John Scott Sherrill - Dennis Robbins)
« © '89 Old Wolf Music, BMI / Tree Publishing, BMI / Trevcor Music, ASCAP »
I am just a rebel that's what I am
I can raise the devil with a five piece band
I got two fists of iron I got a heart of gold
I just have a hard time doin' what I'm told
Being a hillbilly don't get me down
I like it like that in fact you know it makes me proud
Yeah I'm American made by my ma and pa
Southern born by the grace of God
And I'm bound to be a rebel till they put me in the ground
I am just a rebel can't you see
Don't go looking for trouble it just finds me
When I'm a walking down the street people stop and stare
I know they're talking about me they say there goes that rebel there
And being a hillbilly don't get me down...
Oh yes I'm bound to be a rebel till they put me in the ground
Yeah yeah yeah I'm bound to be a rebel
Till they put me in the cold cold ground
I am just a rebel that's what I am
I am just a rebel can't you see yeah yeah
I am just a rebel
