Sawmill

Mel Tillis - Horace Whatley

© Cedarwood Pub, BMI

Well once I was a slave at the Sawmill
Talk about a poor boy talk about a poor boy
Never saw a dollar bill
Well my work was so hard at the Sawmill
Think about a poor boy think about a poor boy
When you go to write your will

Well see my teardrops fallin' down
My wife left this Sawmill town
She said Sawmill life had been a sin
Cause the gravy was too thin
I can't a work no more at the Sawmill
Mercy on a poor boy mercy on a poor boy
Let me have a dollar bill
[ instrumental ]
If you bring your wife to the Sawmill
Well how you gonna please her how you gonna please her
When she wants a dollar bill
They're not satisfied at the Sawmill
Women like a dollar women like a dollar
Yes and women always will

See my teardrops fallin' down...

Mercy on a poor boy mercy on a poor boy
Let me have a dollar bill

Leona

Leona was a woman that lived in our town
Pretty as a picture with big ol' eyes of brown
She danced and she partied almost ev'ry night
Leona only lived for things that wasn't right

Leona Leona your ways are so strange
Leona Leona will you ever change

One night she was dancin' she met an older man
She thought that he had money and he became Leona's plan
And as she cast her evil spell upon her older prey
She had that old man dreaming he was in his younger days

She took him to her pretty home and turned her lights down low
As the old man's heart beat faster his eyes began to glow
She kissed him she loved him she gave of her charms
But the old man he died that night in Leona's arms

Leona Leona your ways are so strange...

There were many at the funeral they seen Leona cry
When the preacher told the people how the old old man had died
But after it was over and they had him in the ground
Leona had that preacher man and headin' back to town

Leona Leona your ways are so strange...
Leona Leona your ways are so strange...

Bobbi

Ev'ry word on my mind Bobbi is your goodbye

Black black black black is the day
No sun is shining in my world Bobbi since you went away
Sad sad sad sad is my heart
All my laughter's turned to tears Bobbi since we've been apart

Ev'ry pretty flower's turned to brown
They all look like me with their heads bowed down
My heart only sing the saddest songs
Bobbi since you've been gone

Cry cry cry you know I cry
Ev'ry word on my mind Bobbi is your goodbye
[ instrumental ]
Ev'ry pretty flower's turned to brown...
Cry cry cry you know I cry...
Ev'ry word on my mind Bobbi is your goodbye

Borrowed Angel

Mel Street

© Levisa Music, BMI

Her fingers feel so gentle with her hand in mine
Her hair feels like silk on my arms
Her lips tell me so sweetly that she's mine alone
Until we part tonight and she goes home

Borrowed angel belongs to someone else
I love my borrowed angel I just can't help myself
That ring on her finger don't belong to me
But she loves me and I know she'll save some borrowed time for me
[ instrumental ]
I wish that I could have her more than just tonight
We can't go on like this it isn't right
When that lonesome feelin' comes knocking on my door
I'll call my borrowed angel to ease the pain once more

Borrowed angel belongs to someone else...
Yes she loves me and I know she'll save some borrowed time for me

Remembering

Jerry Reed Hubbard

© Vector Music, BMI

Ev'ry night I go down to the same little joint
Fill up my glass till I reach the point past remembering
Where the music is loud the conversation is free
A dance or two with someone to keep me from remembering
The fool I've been the hurt I've caused
The good woman that I've loved and lost
For she's constantly with me in memory
I'd go home but I couldn't sleep
And after hours I'd be walkin' the streets remembering

A good woman's love is hard to find
And my woman's love was just that kind

Well I know I'm the reason that she's gone today
I miss her so and the price that I pay is remembering
I take her to sleep in my dreams ev'ry night
Then start all over in the mornin' light remembering
The way it was when she loved me
Then like a fool how I carelessly broke her heart
Then watched my world fall apart
I'd give this world for yesterday
Just to have her love me the way I remember
Just to have her love me the way I remember

Live In My Heart

Jerry House

© Sawgrass Music, BMI

Live in my heart pay me no rent
Live in my heart and wonder where loneliness went

There's a room built for you why don't you move in today
You'll be warm in my arms and no harm will come your way

Ev'rything you'll ever need will always be at the door
And your love will be enough to keep you up forever more

Live in my heart pay me no rent....

If you're just on the move I will prove my love someway
And I will show my feelings on you will know it ev'ryday

If we ever get together you will never move away
Here's my heart take it sweetheart it's your apartment move in today

Live in my heart pay me no rent....

Cheap Imitation

Ronal McCown

© Sawgrass Music, BMI

She was just another cheap imitation of you

Your mem'ry keeps me running round till last night out on the town
I met someone to chase away my blues
But her blonde hair and her blue eyes were all that lived through a sunrise
She was just another cheap imitation of you

She kept saying all along I was right and you were wrong
So I listened like a broken heart will do
But nothin' turned out right cause when I saw her in the light
She was just another cheap imitation of you
[ instrumental ]
Runnin' from your memory it's hard to hide in misery
But it's so easy to believe her love is true
So last night one more time I got out of my mind
And I woke up with cheap imitation of you

She kept saying all along I was right and you were wrong

If I Throw Away My Pride

Wayne P. Walker

© Cedarwood Pub, BMI

If I'm sorry for the things you think I've done
When you know you've always been the only one
If I get down on my knees cross my heart and ask you please
If I throw away my pride will you come home

If I ask forgiveness when my sins are none
If I promise there'll be better day to come
If I say the fault is mine when I loved you all the time
If I throw away my pride will you come home
[ instrumental ]
Love can't be a one way street and still survive
It takes more than one to keep a love alive
Even though the cost is high our love's worth another try
If I throw away my pride will you come home
If I throw away my pride will you come home

Take A Look At Me

Ronal McCown

© Sawgrass Music, BMI

Goodnight all you angel band Lord let sleep hold to my hand
I'm just a kid again like I used to be

I haven't learned a single thing I'm back and forth just like a swing
I've got the same old song to sing take a look at me

I'm just somebody going my way
I know as much about tomorrow as I learned about today

So I'll go my merry way and when there's nothing left to say
Guess I'll just go on out and play Lord take a look at me

I haven't closed a single door I'm just the way I was before
I can fall in love once more would you look at me

Guess you could say that I'm a clown but I help make the world go round
By makin' my own peculiar sounds take a look at me

I'm just somebody going my way...
So I'll go my merry way...

Thank You For Being You

Kent Westberry - Hal Harbour

© Sawgrass Music, BMI

I thank you for the sunshine that you put into my skies
I thank you for the love light that's shining in my eyes
And for the thoughtfulness you put in ev'rything you do
Oh but most of all I wanted to thank you for being you

I thank you for the babies that brighten up my life
I love you for the way you've been a lovin' faithful wife
And for all the happiness we've known and good times we've been through
Oh but most of all I wanted to thank you for being you

I know God would want an angel in his heaven just like you
And for lending me your love sweetheart I want to thank him too

I thank you for the tender ways you show me that you care
And when I feel the need for you I know I'll find you near
I thank you for a thousand things that keep me close to you
Oh but most of all I wanted to thank you for being you
Yes most of all I wanted to thank you for being you
