FOOL NEVER LEARNS
(Sonny Curtis)
« © '64 Warner-Tamerlane Publishing, BMI »
A fool never learns
To get away just run away before his heart begins to break
A fool never learns
He'll wait around just hang around to see how much his heart can take
A fool never learns
To some girls love is just a game and some girls treat all fool the same
A fool never learns and I'm gonna do a very foolish thing
I'm gonna stick by you I'm gonna hang around
Wait around hope she'll love me again some day
They say a broken heart don't mark the end of time
That there are lots of girls who'd love to be just mine
But I don't believe that I could fall in love again
Cause I just can't remove the pain
A fool never learns and I'm gonna do a very foolish thing
I'm gonna stick by...
I'm gonna do a very foolish thing
A fool never learns

AS USUAL
(Alex Zanetis)

The sun comes up and brings the dawn as usual
When I awake I'll find you're gone as usual
But I can't find a way to let this crazy heart of mine forget
I pretend you're still beside me as usual
Each evening I take a walk as usual
I make believe that we still talk as usual
People always stop and stare I guess they just don't see you there
Don't they know you'll always be right here as usual
Today I looked into my mirror as usual
I told myself that you're still here as usual
And as I stood there telling lies the tears began to fill my eyes
Cause I know I'm only fooling myself as usual

I hear bees a hummin' and I know the days're comin' love's gonna live here again
Love's gonna live here...
Love's gonna live here again

LEFT OUT
(Jan Crutchfield)
« © '64 Sure-Fire Music, BMI »
Left out of things you do no longer loved by you
Now he takes you about while I just stay left out
He walks you close to me to let me know I'll be
Left out of your sweet dreams left out of everything
Oh it hurts me so to keep loving someone I must learn to live without
And it breaks my heart each time I see you with him knowing I'm left out
Left out and how I miss the lips I used to kiss
Left out of your sweet dreams left out of everything
Oh it hurts me so to keep loving someone...
Left out of everything

YOU CAN NEVER STOP ME LOVING YOU
(Ian Samwell - Jean Slate)
« © '63 Ridge Music, BMI »
You can never stop me loving you
You can never stop the way that my heart's beating to
You can never stop me loving you that's one thing you'll never do
You can take my picture off your shelf
You can go around all by yourself
You can have the others that we're through
But darling I know one thing you can't do
You can never stop me loving you...
You can hang the phone up when I call
You can say you don't love me at all
You can say it's over and we're through
But darling I know one thing you can't do
You can never stop me loving you...
You can never stop me loving you that's one thing you'll never do
You'll never stop me loving you

NEVER ALONE
(Betty Sue Perry)
« © '64 Sure-Fire Music, BMI »
(Never alone but always lonely)
Never alone but always lonely without you
I'm always found with friends around but still I'm blue
I play a part to hide a heart that's broke in two
I'm never alone but always lonely
Never alone but always lonely since you're gone
I join the crowd where laughter's loud still I'm alone
The city lights and party nights go on and on
I'm never alone but always lonely
I always smile so no one else would know
But all the while behind the smile tears want to flow
I see your face it's every place we used to go
I'm never alone but always lonely
I'm never alone but always lonely

TALK BACK TREMBLING LIPS
(John D. Loudermilk)
« © '63 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Talk back trembling lips shaky legs don't just stand there
Heart don't let her know that you're breaking in two
Everyday our love's a battle royal
Here it seems that fighting's all we do
But if I let you know how much I love you
You'll do things to me you shouldn't do
So talk back trembling lips shaky legs don't just stand there
Don't let her know that she's gettin' through to you
Talk back trembling lips burning eyes don't start crying
Heart don't let her know that you're breaking in two
[ ac.guitar ]
Everytime you up and hurt my feelings I pretend it couldn't matter less
But I'm just hiding all of my emotions behind the broken heart I guess
But talk back trembling lips...

NOT THAT I CARE
(Cindy Walker)
« © '63 Sure-Fire Music, BMI »
So you saw her last night with her new love
Yes they tell me they make quite a pair
And if they both look happy together
I just wonder not that I care
Tell me was she as lovely as ever
Like an angel with golden hair
Does she still close her eyes when she dances
I just wonder not that I care
Once I thought I couldn't live without her
Funny how wrong I could be
Now I never even think about her
What she does doesn't mean a thing to me
Well it's late so I guess I'll be going
Too much smoke what I need is some air
By the way did she ask you about me
I just wonder not that I care
[ piano ]
I just wonder not that I care

MIDNIGHT MARY
(Ben Raleigh - Art Wayne)
« © '64 Murbo Music, BMI »
Meet me at midnight Mary same place we always go
Meet me at midnight Mary and don't let anyone know
Don't let anyone know
Your daddy says I'm a bad boy and you've no future with me
So we can only get together by meeting secretly
Meet me at midnight Mary...
Just try a job on the railroad the work it's hard it's long
But I know it build us a future and show your daddy he's wrong
Meet me at midnight Mary...
As soon as I have some money for home and everything
We won't have to keep it a secret that you've got my wedding ring
Meet me at midnight Mary...
Don't let anyone know
