Just Someone I Used To Know

Jack Clement

© Jack Music, BMI

There's a picture that I carry
One we made some time ago
When they ask who's in the picture with me
I say just someone I used to know

Just someone I used to spend some time with
Just a flame that's lost its glow
But I don't tell them of the nights I cried without you
I say just someone I used to know

Just someone I used to run around with
Just a friend from long ago
I don't tell them how lost I am without you
I say just someone I used to know
I say just someone I used to know

Daddy Was An Old Time Preacher Man

Dolly Parton - Dorothy Jo Hope

© Velvet Apple Music, BMI

Daddy was an old time preacher man
He preached the word of God throughout the land
He praeached so plain a child could understand
Yes daddy was an old time preacher man

He told the people of the need to pray
He talked about God's wrath on Judgement Day
He preached about that great eternity
He preached hell so hot that you could feel the heat

Daddy was an old time preacher man
And Leona would get up to testify
As we'd sing in the sweet by and by
Then we'd sing I'm on my way to Canaan's Land
Yes daddy was an old time preacher man

Revivals and camps meetin's with four weeks
Folks came from all around to hear him preach
Daddy said if one is saved it's worth it all
But the aisles were always filled to altar call

Daddy was an old time preacher man...

Daddy worked for God but asked no pay
For he believed that God provides away
We never had a lot but we got by
I guess it's cause the Lord was on my daddy's side

Yes daddy was an old time preacher man
In the sweet by and by we shall meet on that beautiful shore
I'm on my way to Canaan's Land yes daddy was an old time preacher man
In the sweet by and by we shall meet on that beautiful shore
I'm on my way to Canaan's Land yes daddy was an old time preacher man

Tomorrow Is Forever

Dolly Parton

© Velvet Apple Music, BMI

Take my hand and run with me out of the past called yesterday
And walk with me into the future of tomorrow
Yesterday must be forgot no looking back no matter what
There's nothing there but mem'ries that bring sorrow
Yesterday is gone gone but tomorrow is forever

No more crying tears leave tracks
And mem'ries find their way back
Tomorrow's waking let's journey there together
Yesterday is gone gone gone but tomorrow is forever

I care not for yesterday I love you as you are today
Yesterday just helped to pass the time while waiting
We must forget the passing time my love for you is the real kind
The kind that won't hurt you no never
Yesterday is gone gone gone but tomorrow is forever
Yesterday is gone gone gone but tomorrow is forever

Jeannie's Afraid Of The Dark

Dolly Parton

© Velvet Apple Music, BMI

Her two little feet would come ringing into
Our bedroom almost every night
Her soft little face would be wet from her tears
And her little heart pounding with fright
She'd hold out her arm then she'd climb in beside us
In a small voice we'd hear her remark
Mommie and daddy can I sleep here with you
Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark

One day in the summer we took some flowers
To place on some old family grave
Jeannie said mommie ain't it dark in the ground
Oh daddy I'd be so afraid
Then she looked up at her daddy and me
And said something that broke both our hearts
She said when I die please don't bury me
Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark

Jeannie was always afraid of the dark
And we never could understand why
Cause we looked after Jeannie with the very best of care
Because Jeannie was our only child
Perhaps it was death that she was so afraid of
Cause it took her one dark stormy night
I think we always knew that we'd never see Jeannie grown
Cause it seemed that she was destined to die
But on Jeannie's grave we've placed en eternal flame
That glows and never loses its spark
And on the darkest night there's always a light
Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark
Our Jeannie's afraid of the dark

The Last Thing On My Mind

Tom Paxton

© Deep Fork Music, ASCAP

It's a lesson too late for the learning
Made of sand made of sand
In the wink of an eye my soul is turning
In your hand in your hand

Are you going away with no word of farewell
Will there be not a trace left behind
I could have loved you better didn't mean to be unkind
You know that was the last thing on my mind

As I walk alone my thoughts are tumbling
Round and round round and round
Underneath our feet a subway's rumbling
Underground underground

Are you going away with no word of farewell...

I got reasons of plenty for going
This I know this I know
The weeds have been steadily growing
Please don't go please don't go

Are you going away with no word of farewell...
[ instrumental ]
Are you going away with no word of farewell...
You know that was the last thing on my mind

The Pain Of Loving You

Dolly Parton - Porter Wagoner

© Velvet Apple Music, BMI

You just can't stand to see me happy
Seems you hurt me all you can
Still I go on loving you
But I'll never understand

Oh the pain of loving you
Oh the mis'ry I go through
Never knowing what to do
Oh the pain of loving you
[ instrumental ]
To love and hate at the same time
The line between the two is fine
But two has bound me heart and soul
So strong that I can't let you go

Oh the pain of loving you...
Oh the pain of loving you

Holding On To Nothin'

Jerry Chesnut

© Tree Pub, BMI

We're holding on with nothin' left to hold on to

I'm so tired of holding on to nothin'
The years have shown no kindness for the hard times we've been through
We've squeezed the life from every dream and still go right on bluffin'
With really nothin' left to hold on to

Oh why do we keep holding on with nothin' left to hold on to
Let's be honest with each other that's the least that we can do
I feel guilty when they envy me and you
We're holding on with nothin' left to hold on to
[ instrumental ]
We were young and foolishly mistaken
Victims of a passion much too strong to be denied
With only tears to show for all the years that we've been fakin'
God only knows how long h

Run That By Me One More Time

Dolly Parton

© Velvet Apple Music, BMI

Run that by me one more time to make sure that I heard you right
I hope you don't expect me to believe that line
I might be crazy but I ain't dumb and I know a lie when I hear one
Would you run that by me one more time

Well you're late again I see what's your excuse this time
Don't try to kiss and make up when you smell so strong from wine
Well I'm not late the clock is wrong you need to wind Big Ben
Honey that's not wine you smell that's aftershave for men
Would you run that by me one more time

Run that by me one more time to make sure that I heard you right...

What happened to the money I gave you to pay the rent
The rent is overdue and we ain't got one red cent
Well I put it in the cookie jar that day you brought it home
One day when I come back from town
I'll be dogged if that money wasn't gone
Ha ha would you run that by me one more time

Run that by me one more time to make sure that I heard you right...

You keep drinkin' that aftershave it's gonna kill you if I'm lucky
You spent that money didn't you
I didn't spend it I oughta box your jaws
Oh you'd hit your mom before you hit me
Would you run that by me one more time run that by me one more time
I don't want to run that by you one more time
Shot your mouth I don't have to you ain't my pa

We'll Get Ahead Someday

Mack Magaha

© Warden Music, BMI

We'll get ahead someday
We'll get ahead someday
If the sun comes up and we both cut down
We'll get ahead someday

Well I get up early work hard all day
Listen to the troubles of my friends
But I don't realize till I get home
Whan an awful shape we're in
The car's wore out kids need shoes
Got a bill from a doctor today
The landlord said you'll get out tomorrow
If you don't get me some pay

We'll get ahead someday...

The paper says there's a sale downtown
I gotta have some money today
Well there's things at home that ain't never been used
You bought last bargain day
Well you go out one Saturday night
Just spend too much money on wine
Well I work hard all week long
And I gotta have a little fun sometimes

We'll get ahead someday...

If the sun comes up and my wife cuts down
We'll get ahead someday
