I Believe In You

Buddy Cannon - Gene Dunlap

© Sawgrass Music, BMI

I believe in you this is all I need to be
Bound to use the same as free the key is understanding
I'll believe in you you saw me and let me know
To me reveal my soul I believe in you

I gave up all everything I was taught was real
Life was just a way to die till you taught me to feel

Now I believe in me you gave me a reason to
Took me in and cared for me you believed in me
And I believe in you

Long Gone Blues

Dave Hanner

© Lowery Music, BMI

You're the woman you're the girl
You're the only one in the whole world
That's got the power to give me these blues
While I have no power over you

I've got those long gone blues sittin' here thinkin' of you
I wish my feelings for you were long gone too
Long gone blues

If you ever think of me think of me now
Even though you're so far away
If you ever think of me think of me now
Loving you to this day

I've got those long gone blues sittin' here thinkin' of you...

(I've got those) long gone blues sittin' here thinkin' of you
I wish my feelings for you were long gone too
Long gone blues

Ain't No California

Sterling Whipple

© Tree Pub, BMI

Well I've lived my life on highways from sea to shining sea
So listen to my story save yourself some agony
Forget that urge to wander like a shadow on the ground
Find yourself a woman get a job and settle down

Cause there ain't no California where the water taste like wine
Ain't no big rock candy mountain where you feel good all the time
I ain't found that blue bayou though I've roamed my whole life long
Searching for my blue heaven heard somewhere that it's called home

Don't you listen to those freight trains let them scream into the night
Don't watch those greyhound buses semi-trucks and airplane lights
Let someone else be lonely let someone else be cold
Let someone else make sure those lies and stories all get told

Cause there ain't no California where the water taste like wine...
Cause there ain't no California where the water taste like wine...

Broken Man

Dave Hanner

© Lowery Music, BMI

It's been a month since she's been gone
I can see you're having trouble living on
You've got to do what you can
Women don't like a broken man

You may say that sounds cruel
I don't mean to say women won't pity you
But you need more than sorrow to win her hand
Women don't like a broken man

You sit all day you sit and stare
But you don't understand
What you feel what you do
Need not go hand in hand

It's been a year since she left you
You're still thinking about what she's done to you
Then I guess your life's back in your hands
Women don't like a broken man

You sit all day you sit and stare...

Try to understand
Women don't like a broken man
Then I guess your life's back in your hands
Women don't like a broken man

America's Sweetheart

Bob Corbin

© Return Music, BMI

Kenworths and Peterbilts parked in the lot
One more cup darling and make sure it's hot
She's somewhere around thirty though her eyes are old
With a pot full of coffee and a heart full of gold

She's America's sweetheart a truck drivers dream
The apple pie lady a hamburger queen
She's America's sweetheart the working man's friend
With a chewing gum smile and a fill 'er up again

Big trucks pull out on the interstate
She goes to her station and gathers the plates
With a Pall Mall cigarette hung from her lips
She cleans off the tables and counts up the tips

She's America's sweetheart a truck drivers dream...

She quarters the jukebox selection before
Another truck driver walks through the door
With a cup of her coffee and a piece of her pie
The knight of the road bid the sweetheart goodbye

She's America's sweetheart a truck drivers dream...
She's America's sweetheart a truck drivers dream...

What Comes Natural To A Fool

Ronal McCown

© Sawgrass Music, BMI

Now time and time again I know I've hurt you
But I can't seem to change these things I do
When temptation comes around I always let you down
Doing what comes natural to a fool

I've promised you before and I'll promise you once more
That I'm gonna change and make things up to you
But I guess I'll keep on till everything I love is gone
Doing what comes natural to a fool

You find it in your heart to forgive me
And I try to do the things I promised to
I'm trying to be true but I know I'm losing you
Doing what comes natural to a fool

I've promised you before and I'll promise you once more...

But I guess I'll keep on till everything I love is gone
Doing what comes natural to a fool
