A Satisfied Mind

Red Hayes - Jack Rhodes

© Starday Music, BMI

How many times have you heard someone say
If I had his money I could do things my way
But little they know that it's so hard to find
One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind

Once I was wadin' in fortune and fame
Ev'rything that I dreamed for to get a start in life's game
But suddenly it's happened I lost ev'ry dime
But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind
[ instrumental ]
Money can't buy back your youth when you're old
Or a friend when you're lonely or a love that's grown cold
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind

When life has ended my time has run out
My friends and my loved ones I'll leave there's no doubt
But there's one thing for certain when it comes my time
I'll leave this ol' world with a satisfied mind

My Bonfire

Horace Whatley - Jack Segal - Orville Stone

© We Three Music, BMI

From your penthouse high above
Where you live now with your love
Can you see my golden bonfire burning bright
Maybe somehow you will know
What that glow is down below
For I'm burning your love letters here tonight

I feed 'em to the hungry flame
And watch it take command
Each letter warmed me when it came
But now they're cold in hand

Bonfire bonfire hear my plea
Blaze away a memory
Burn this yearning from my heart
And set me free

My bonfire's a bitter joke
Your love was just the same
I watch my dreams go up in smoke
My soul is in the flame

Bonfire bonfire hear my plea...

I Like Girls

Cy Coben

© Delmore Music, ASCAP

I like girls I like girls
I like their ribbons and I like their curls
I like 'em cause they're soft and sweet
I like to watch 'em on the street
I like their hair and when they wear that perfume on their clothes
Do I like girls oh I like girls and I don't care who knows
I used to hunt a fish till I kissed a girl and vow
Makin' love to them well that's my hobby now
I like girls I like girls they're like diamonds they're like pearls
I like to date 'em ev'ry night I like to hug and squeeze 'em tight
When I crush 'em in my arms they cuddle up and coo
Do I like girls do I like girls you bet your life I do
[ instrumental ]
I like girls I like girls
I like their ribbons and I like their curls
They're so sweet and they're so shy
When they kiss me I could die
When they giggle and when they wiggle they thrill me with their charms
I like girls I like girls especially in my arms
When I was just a kid kissin' girls with sissy stuff
But now that I've grown up I just can't get enough
Oh I like girls I like girls I like to give 'em all a whirl
Blondy redhead or brunet I like any kind they get
Sunday I will kiss 'em all that's part of my big plan
I like girls and the girls like me and I'm a lucky man

Ivory Tower

Jack Fulton - Louis Roberts

© E.H. Morris Co, ASCAP

Come down come down from your ivory tower
Let love come into your heart
Don't lock yourself in your ivory tower
Don't keep us so far apart

I love you I love you
Are you too far above me to hear
Come down come down from your ivory tower
You'll find true love has its charm
It's cold so cold in your ivory tower
But warm so warm in my arms
[ instrumental ]
I love you I love you...

Johnny Mullins

© Budde Songs, BMI

Oh mama I'm excited I'm almost outta breath
What I saw the like to made me run myself to death
I was on the mountain side when I looked down below
And glory be I thought I'd better come and let you know

That we got company comin' company comin'
We got company comin' up the road
They're down the road about a mile
They'll be here in a little while
There's company comin' up the road
[ instrumental ]
Well Granny change your apron and Willie shine your shoes
Sally put your new dress on we got no time to lose
I'll go find a welcome mat and spread it out with cheer
I don't know yet just who they are can't pick 'em out from here

But we got company comin' company comin'
We got company comin' up the road
They're comin' up the mountain side
Susie don't you run and hide
There's company comin' up the road
[ instrumental ]
Well run out to the henhouse and wring a neck or two
We'll have chicken and dumplin's and some yeller gravy too
Grandpa get your fiddle down they might want a tune
Ev'rybody hurry cause them folks'll be here soon

And we got company comin' company comin'
We got company comin' up the road
Land of Goshen I allow they'll be here any minute now
There's company comin' down the road
[ instrumental ]
Oh we got company comin' company comin'
We got company comin' up the road
Land of Goshen I allow they'll be here any minute now
There's company comin' down the road

Born To Lose

Frankie Brown

© Peer Int, BMI

Born to lose I've lived my life in vain
Every dream has only brought me pain
All my life I've always been so blue
Born to lose and now I'm losing you

Born to lose it seems so hard to bear
How I long to always have you near
You've grown tired and now you say we're through
Born to lose and now I'm losing you
[ instrumental ]
Born to lose my every hope is gone
It's so hard to face an empty dawn
You were all the happiness I knew
Born to lose and now I'm losing you

There's no use to dream of happiness
All I see is only loneliness
All my life I've always been so blue
Born to lose and now I'm losing you

Midnight

Boudleaux Bryant - Chet Atkins

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

Midnight I spent another lonely day thinkin' of you
Midnight tomorrow is on its way empty and blue
I'm so lonely so lonely at midnight for you

Midnight oh what a lonely time to weep I ought to know
Midnight I should have been fast asleep hours ago
Still I'm cryin' I'm cryin' cause I miss you so
[ instrumental ]
Midnight I lie in the bed and stare at nothin' at all
Wondering wondering why you don't care wishin' you'd call
Tears keep flowing like drops from a waterfall

Midnight I spent another lonely day thinkin' of you...

That's It

Gary Walker - Porter Wagoner

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

I hear bells a ringin' and my heart is singin' a song
The way I'm a feelin' I know it won't be long
So get closer to me say lip-to-lip just a little closer
That's it that's it baby that's it

The blues start wingin' and the bells keep ringin' above
We both know what it means to be in love
It's you for me and me for you so pitch the woo that's overdue
That's it baby that's it
[ instrumental ]
Now when we're dancin' my heart is singin' a song
When you're away I know you're doin' me wrong
So while you're here let's do it up right you may be gone tomorrow night
Get closer to me baby that's it
[ instrumental ]
There'll be no pretendin' when we start makin' love
Ever time you're near ol' Cupid gives a shove
I allow ast how that now's the time to cuddle up and that's no crime
That's it baby that's it
[ instrumental ]
There'll be no goodbyin' and no more cryin' here
Cause my tears start flyin' ev'ry time I know you're near
If I should ask you by the way if you'll be mine I hope you'll say
That's it baby that's it

I Guess I'm Crazy (For Loving You)

Werly Fairburn

© Mallory Music, BMI

I guess I'm crazy for lovin' you
You tell me many ways that I won't do
I may be playin' a losin' game
I guess I'm crazy but I'll never change

I've tried to let you go it's no use this I know
I don't care if it's so it has to be
My heart keeps sayin' that I'm a fool
I guess I'm crazy for lovin' you
[ instrumental ]
I've tried to let you go it's no use this I know...

I'm Stepping Out Tonight

Gene Mooney

© Budde Songs, BMI

All week long I've had the blues and it's about to get me down
This loneliness is just too much for anyone to be around
But tonight I'm a gonna have some fun I'm gonna try with all a my might
So you better watch out you pretty little girls I'm a steppin' out tonight
I'm a steppin' out tonight

I'll get around and paint this town and see what I can find
Maybe I'll find a pretty little girl who'll give me the come-on sign
And if I do woe is me cause I'm a gonna be a sight
So you better watch out you pretty little girls I'm a steppin' out tonight
I'm steppin' out tonight
[ instrumental ]
To look at me you'd think I'd be another bashful guy
But I long for the chance to find romance and I just won't pass it by
When I hold their hands they'll understand we'll get along all right
So you better watch out you pretty little girls I'm a steppin' out tonight
I'm steppin' out tonight

I'll get around and paint this town and see what I can find...

Living In The Past

Celia Ferguson - Sandra Ferguson

© Budde Songs, BMI

I'm livin' in the past a life I once knew
You left me behind what else can I do
I'm cryin' in my sleep my dreams won't come true
I'm livin' in the past with mem'ries of you

You say you've found a new love and I should find one too
You tell me to forget you that's somethin' I can't do
I'm livin' in the past I guess I can't learn
I'm hopin' that someday my love you'll return
[ instrumental ]
You say you've found a new love and I should find one too
You tell me to forget you that's somethin' I can't do
I'm prayin' night and day that you're sorry too
I'm livin' in the past dear what about you

Tricks Of The Trade

Gene Wilson

© Budde Songs, BMI

Don't scorn me if I slip around on you
Don't hate me if I fancy someone new
Don't blame me if my love just can't be true
It's the tricks of the trade I've learn from you

How many nights have I cried over you
And how many time has your love been untrue
So don't blame me if I cheat'n lie to you
It's the tricks of the trade I've learned from you
[ instrumental ]
Don't cry dear if I come in at three
And don't forget dear you did the same things to me
Don't blame me if your tears I fail to see
It's just the tricks of the trade you taught to me

How many nights have I cried over you...
