Rainin'

Keith Sykes

© Bro'n Sis Music, BMI

Out my window not twenty-four hours ago
I saw my baby he was a-walkin' on out the door
Baby come on back I'm standin' by the porch swing
Hoo hoo hoo come on in honey lay it on me
It's rainin' rainin' in my soul
It's rainin' in my head baby think about it baby
I'm in love with you you see

Got to give me just one more chance
Got to come and live with me
Hey come on back I'm standin' by the porch swing
Hoo hoo hoo come on in honey lay it on me
It's rainin' rainin' in my soul
It's rainin' rainin' in my soul
[ instrumental ]
Wait a minute wait a minute baby
I've changed I've changed I've changed
I'll do anything that you want me to
If you just get me out of the rain
Hey come on back I'm standin' by the porch swing
Hoo hoo hoo come on in honey lay it on me
It's rainin' rainin' in my soul
It's rainin' rainin' in my soul
It's rainin' think about it baby rainin' in my soul
It's rainin' rainin' rainin' rainin' in my soul

Seven Year Ache

Rosanne Cash

© Atlantic Music, BMI

You act like you were just born tonight
Face down in a memory but feeling all right
So who does your past belong to today
Baby you don't say nothing when you're feeling this way

Girls in the bars thinking who is this guy
But they don't think nothing when they're telling you lies
You look so careless when they're shooting that bull
Don't you know heartaches are heroes when their pockets are full

Tell me you're trying to cure a seven year ache
See what else your old heart can take
Boys say when is he gonna give us some room
The girls say God I hope he comes back soon
[ instrumental ]
And everybody's talking but you don't hear a thing
You're still uptown on your downhill swing
Boulevard's empty why don't you come around
Baby what is so great about sleeping downtown

There's plenty of dives to be someone you're not
Just say you're looking for something you might have forgot
Don't bother calling to say you're leaving alone
Cause there's a fool on every corner when you're trying to get home

Just tell 'em your trying to cure a seven year ache...
Tell me you're trying to cure a seven year ache...

Blue Moon With Heartache

Rosanne Cash

© Atlantic Music, BMI

Blue moon out my window guess this means goodnight
And you come in and start right in not treating me right
Misery is a ball and all its company
I'll play the victim for you honey but not for free

I run into that heartache just like a wall
And act like nothing happened to me nothing at all
Lately I'm amazed at how blind we can be
Lately even dreaming feels like old reality

What would I give to be a diamond in your eyes again
What would I give to bring back those old times
What did I say to make your cold heart bleed this way
Maybe I'll just go away today

And I don't care who's waiting at my front door
You know that life don't hold no glamour anymore
Oh how can it all look so right and feel so wrong
I'll play the victim for you honey but not for long

What would I give to be a diamond in your eyes again
What would I give to bring back those old times
What did I say to make your past turn out this way
Maybe I'll just go away today
Maybe I'll just go away
Maybe I'll just go away
Maybe I'll just go away to stay
Maybe I'll just go away
Maybe I'll just go away
Maybe I'll just go away

What Kinda Girl

Steve Forbert

© Colgems Music, ASCAP

What kinda girl am I really am
I love some turkey but I don't eat lamb
No sweet potato but I do like ham
What kinda girl am I really am

What kinda girl am I really I
I kept my jacket but I lost my tie
I'll tell ya truly that I sometimes lie
What kinda girl am I really I

What kinda girl am I really who
Don't wear pajamas and I don't sniff glue
I'm Mississippi got the New York blues
What kinda girl am I really who

What kinda girl am I really what
I might be leavin' but the door ain't shut
I'm here for lovin' but I ain't no slut
What kinda girl am I really what

What kinda girl am I really am
I love some turkey but I don't eat lamb
No sweet potato but I do like ham
What kinda girl am I
Am I really am
Girl

You Don't Have Very Far To Go

Merle Haggard - Red Simpson

© Owen Publications, BMI

You always find a way to hurt my pride
If I'm not cryin' you're not satisfied
I don't know why you want to hurt me so
If you're tryin' to break my heart you don't have very far to go

You don't have very far to go before the heartaches begin
I already feel the sadness of a heartbreak settin' in
You've turnin' down the flame of love too low
If you're tryin' to break my heart you don't have very far to go

You don't have very far to go before the heartaches begin...

My Baby Thinks He's A Train

Leroy Preston

© Bumblebee Music, BMI

It's three a.m. in the mornin'
The train whistle is blowin'
It sounds like some lonesome song got in my soul in my soul
My baby split blank and he won't be back no more

My baby thinks he's a train
He makes his whistle stop then he's gone again
Sometimes it's hard on a poor girl's brain a poor girl's brain
I'm tellin' you boys my baby thinks he's a train

Locomotion's the way he moves
He drags me round just like an old caboose
I'm tellin' you girls that man's insane
My baby thinks he's a train

Choo choo rages on train sound
It's the noise that you hear when my baby hits town
With his long hair flyin' man he's hard to take
What you supposed to do when your baby thinks he's a train

He eats money like a train eats coal
He burns it up and leaves you in the smoke
If you wanna catch a ride you wait till he unwinds
He's just like a train he always gives some tramp a ride

Locomotion's the way he moves...

Only Human

Keith Sykes

© Mud Bluff Music, BMI

If I was stoned and on my own
Maybe I could take it when you leave me all alone
But you know I'm only human and it hurts me when you're gone

If my heart was like a diamond just as cold as ice
When I see you with another you know I might not be surprised
But you know I'm only human and I've got to pay the price

Oh the blue sky reminds me of the place you put me in
You know I'm only human time and time again

If I could make it any better well I would be no matter what
I'd stay inside alone and suffer and give up everything I've got
But you know I'm only human and you treat me like I'm not

Oh the blue sky reminds me of the place you put me in
You know I'm only human time and time again

If I could make it any better well I would be no matter what
I'd stay inside alone and suffer and give up everything I've got
But you know I'm only human and you treat me like I'm not
Yeah you know I'm only human and you treat me like I'm not
Well you know I'm only human and you treat me like I'm not

Where Will The Words Come From

Glenn D. Hardin - Sonny Curtis

© Viva Music, BMI

Where will the words come from
When I tell you I don't love you anymore
When I command my lips to say
It's over now please go away

Will the words be there
Or will they fail me like they've always done before
Where will the words come from
When I tell you I don't want you I don't love you anymore

What happened to the love we had when it went away
Did it change itself into a cloud and become a rainy day
Where will the words come from
When I tell you I don't want you I don't love you anymore

Where will the words come from
When I tell you I don't love you anymore
When I search inside my soul
For words to tell of love grown cold

Will the words be there...

Hometown Blues

Tom Petty

© Almo Music, ASCAP

Baby can't wait baby gotta go
Got to do a number on the late late show
Do a little song do a little dance
Want some make the best of her big chance

Don't really matter if she don't or if she do
She's tryin' to make the best of the hometown blues

I got a friend got a little girl
Said she's the best in the whole wide world
Sounds so good it sounds unreal
It might not last but it's no big deal

Don't really matter if she don't or if she do...

Baby save me save me save me your sweet smile
Honey I really need for you to help me kill a little bit o' time

All of the girl rules run with the crowd
They go wild when the lights go down
They got a little money they live in a dream
They wanna be the queen of every little scene

Don't really matter if she don't or if she do...

Baby save me save me save me
Your sweet smile
Honey I really need for you
To help me kill a little bit o' time

All of the girl rules run with the crowd
They go wild when the lights go down
They got a little money they live in a dream
Wanna be the queen of every little scene

Don't really matter if she don't or if she do...

I Can't Resist

Rodney Crowell - Hank DeVito

© Coolwell Music, ASCAP

I'm on your new wave link I know what you must think
I've never felt like this I can't resist
Knowing love like this I can't resist

In from the outside at last I've lived alone in your past
I've known no love like this I can't resist
(Knowing love like this) I cant resist
(I love the way you cast your spell) I can't resist
(No other ever looked so good) I can't resist
(The tender way you show your charm) I can't resist
[ instrumental ]
This heart no longer my own without no neutral zone
Within your sweet caress I can't resist
(Knowing love like this) I can't resist
(Knowing love like this) I can't resist
