The Bed You Made For Me

Paulette Carlson

© Warner-Tamerlane Pub, BMI

Darlin' were you listenin' when I called you late last night
Or did the sleep get in your eyes did it bind me from your sight
Or was she lyin' with you was it hard for you to speak
And did you tell her she was sleeping in the bed you made for me

And did you tell her she was sleeping in the bed you made for me
Did she like my satin sheets and did you sing her to sleep
And my pillow that she slept on did it bring her sweet dreams
Did you tell her she was sleeping in the bed you made for me

The pillow that you made for me it was softer than the down
And the headboard came from an old house that was bound to be torn down
And the songs you always sang to me oh as I fall asleep
Do they sound the same to her in the bed you made for me

And did you tell her she was sleeping in the bed you made for me...
[ instrumental ]
Now you can take my old pillow and throw it out the door
You can buy another bed you can find another headboard
Cause I ain't gonna lie beneath those satin sheets she tore
The bed you made for me it isn't mine anymore

And did you tell her she was sleeping in the bed you made for me...

Who's Lonely Now

Don Cook - Karen Brooks

© Cross Keys Pub, ASCAP

You walked out on a good love and you found somebody new
And now the one that turned your head is turning her back on you

Who's lonely now who's heart is hurtin' I've had my share of those blues
Who's lonely now who's head is reeling you're finally feeling it too
Now you need a little sympathy you never should've walked out on me
Who's lonely now

I feel a whole lot better I got a new attitude
So you can take my crying towel and carry it home with you

Who's lonely now who's heart is hurtin' I've had my share of those blues...

When your rejected you feel neglected it's true
In your condition you need attention and you know I'd like to help
But I'm seeing someone else who's lonely now
[ instrumental ]
Now you know I'd like to help but I'm seeing someone else

Who's lonely now who's heart is hurtin' I've had my share of those blues...

Who's lonely now who's lonely now who's lonely now
Who's lonely now who's heart is hurtin' who's lonely now

Whiskey If You Were A Woman

Bob Morrison - Johnny McRae - Marian Francis

© Music City Music, ASCAP

He's told me a million times he's sorry
I always take him back though soon I know
He'll spend the night with you and leave me crying
You don't love him but you won't let him go

Oh whiskey if you were a woman
I'd fight you and I'd win Lord knows I would
Oh whiskey if you were a woman
I'd drive you from his tangled mind for good
[ instrumental ]
No matter what you'd do I'd do it better
You'd never be the woman I could be
But you don't have a heart or any feelings
So I can't even ask for sympathy

Oh whiskey if you were a woman...

Oh whiskey if you were a woman
I'd drive you from his tangled mind for good

Somewhere Tonight

Harlan Howard - Rodney Crowell

© Tree Pub, BMI

Somewhere tonight he's a live wire
He's got his sights on someone new
Somewhere tonight he's a high flyer
And I'm so lonesome I don't know what to do

I bet he's out there shinin' like a diamond don't you know
Turnin' heads and breakin' hearts and puttin' on a show
Rollin' like a summer storm driftin' with the wind
And I just wish he'd blow my way again

Somewhere tonight he's a live wire...
[ instrumental ]
I've read that goodbye letter at least a thousand times
He said I was the only one who almost changed his mind
But better homes and garden parties weren't his cup of tea
Somewhere tonight he's running wild and free

Somewhere tonight he's a live wire...
And I'm so lonesome I don't know what to do

Someone Else's Trouble Now

Gary Nicholson - Pam Tillis

© Tree Pub, BMI

I heard he's with someone new
Wish her luck cause she'll need it fore she's through
That man's nothin' but a crash course in the blues
But some girls gotta learn the hard way

Well he'll disappear till you think he must be dead
Then he'll sweet talk his way back into your bed
Lose all your money on his inside bets
Burn up your sofa with his cigarettes

But he's someone else's trouble now somebody else's to worry about
Lord knows I loved him the best way I knew how
But he's someone else's trouble now yes he's someone else's trouble now

She won't believe how that man can lie
Looking back now I laugh at his wild alibis
But there was nothin' funny bout it at the time
Still I thought I could not live without him

But he's someone else's trouble now somebody else's to worry about...

With mixed emotions I set him free
Cause every now and then he was as sweet as he could be
Can't help but think about him when the nights are long
Sometimes I miss him but I'm so glad he's gone
[ instrumental ]
Yes he's someone else's trouble now somebody else's to worry about...

Cry Cry Cry

Don Devaney - John S. Sherrill

© Music City Music, ASCAP

It's just a little creek now but when the rain comes down
It's gonna be a ragin' river I just heard my baby say goodbye
He left me here holdin' back my tears now he's gone forever
The dam's gonna break and I'm a gonna cry cry cry

I'm a gonna cry and I don't care who sees
I wonder if he knows what he's done to me
I'm gonna love that boy till the day I die
Till the day I do I'm gonna cry cry cry
[ instrumental ]
Now he's gone the pain's comin' on I can feel my whole body shaking
Looky here now what's this in my eyes
All I hear ringing in my ear is the sound of my heart breaking
Till the day I'm breaking I'm gonna cry cry cry

I'm a gonna cry and I don't care who sees...
I'm a gonna cry and I don't care who sees...
Till the day I do I'm gonna cry cry cry

This Side Of Goodbye

Michael Noble - Jeff Penning - Cactus Moser

© WB Music, ASCAP

Six or seven hours ago seemed the only thing to do
Was head out on the open road and find anywhere else I wouldn't find you
Through the window of the room neon flashes vacancy
Brighter than the quarter moon and colder inside than I thought it would be

With all these miles behind me all those reasons why
Fade into my mem'ry this side of goodbye
This side of goodbye
[ instrumental ]
Sittin' on a single bed silent television glows
I'm looking back and up ahead at what it all was and where it all goes
Oh why'd we have to drift apart a little further every year
And why'd we take a smile to heart not nearly as deep as any one tear

With all these miles behind me all those reasons why why why
Fade into my mem'ry this side of goodbye
This side of goodbye
[ instrumental ]
Reaching out was hard somehow for so long
But easy now if you were here or just picked up the phone

All these miles behind me all those reasons why why why...

This side of goodbye
This side of goodbye

(Do You Love Me) Just Say Yes

Bob DiPiero - John S. Sherrill - Dennis Robbins

© Attack Music, ASCAP

If I came by around nine tonight baby doubt would it be all right
I've got it bad boy I must confess
Tell you now honey would you mind if I took your hand in mine
Could I hold you just say yes

Come on it's on the tip of your tongue so easily done such a small request
Oh babe you got something to say don't keep me waiting don't make me guess
Oh do you love me just say yes

You don't have to go on and on cause you know what I really want
And that's your love no more no less
There's only one thing I need to hear when you whisper in my ear
And that's one word just say yes

Come on it's on the tip...
Oh do you love me just say yes

Honky Tonk Heart

Jim Photoglo - Russell Smith - Howard Smith

© Berger Bits Music, ASCAP

Our song of life is almost ended

Well I met you in a bar and you looked like a movie star
When we touched I could feel a spark
I was young and foolish too my friends warned me about you
But I believed in your honky tonk heart

Our song of love is almost ended
I can feel us driftin' apart
I won't play second fiddle
To the beat of your honky tonk heart
[ instrumental ]
Well we used to feel the same but now one of us has changed
Oh the night life isn't my life anymore
What matters most to me is a home and a family
But you cant find that behind those swingin' doors

Our song of love is almost ended...

Go on back to the bar where I found you
Go on back to your so called second home
You'll feel better with your good time friends around you
And I'll be here but I won't be alone

Our song of love is almost ended...
To the beat of your honky tonk heart

A Change

Steve Bogard - Rick Giles

© Blackwood Music, BMI

Been a long time lonely grown set in my ways
No eye for tomorrow just a chain of yesterdays
You were the first time I knew where I stood
Now I walk a new line and I think the change is gonna do me good

Gonna suit me fine bring me back again
It's just a matter of time gonna play my cards right
Gonna knock on wood I know that it's coming
And I think the change is gonna do me good

Stone cold sober in the broad daylight
Downtown dancin' on a Saturday night
Just thinkin' about you makes me feel alright
It's the way that you love me the way that you love me
[ instrumental ]
Stone cold sober in the broad daylight...

Your love is a shadow across all my dreams
I wake up and want you and your face is all I see
No words have been spoken it's all understood
My heart is wide open and I think the change is gonna do me good

Gonna suit me fine bring me back again...
Gonna suit me fine it's just a matter of time
