To You And Yours (From Me And Mine)

Bill Anderson

© Tree Pub, BMI

Wedding bells are ringing on two sides of town tonight
One wedding it's at seven one's at nine
A pair of old sweethearts will hold their new sweethearts so tight
Best of luck to you and yours from me and mine

To you and yours may happiness flow free
May you find in him the faith you lost in me
And although I don't love her yet perhaps I will in time
Best of luck to you and yours from me and mine
[ instrumental ]
I'm afraid to say I do for fear I really done
Afraid my conscience might not walk the line
For even though I'll kiss her lips it's your lips that I want
That's a difference in you and yours and me and mine

To you and yours may happiness flow free...

The Wall

Harlan Howard

© Cedarwood Pub, BMI

There's a lot of strange men in cell Block 10 but the strangest of them all
Was a friend of mine who just spent his time staring at the wall
(Staring at the wall)

In his hand was a note that his gal had wrote and it proved that crime don't pay
Twas the very same gal he robbed and stole for name in her weddin' day
(Name in her weddin' day)

As he looked at the wall so strong and tall I could hear him softly curse
Nobody a tall ever climbed that wall but I'm gonna be the first
(I'm gonna be the first)
[ instrumental ]
The warden walked by and said son don't try I would hate to see you fall
There is no doubt they would carry you out if you ever touch that wall
(Ever touch that wall )

A year's gone by since he made his try but I can still recall
How hard he tried and the way he died but he never made that wall
(Never made that wall)

There's never been a man ever shook this can but I know a man who tried
The newspapers called it a jailbreak plan but I know it was suicide
Know it was suicide

Where Did The Sunshine Go

Boudleaux Bryant - Felice Bryant

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

Where did the sunshine go why is it raining so
Where is the love I used to know where did the sunshine go
Where did the sunshine go why do the cold winds blow
Where is the one I needed so where did the sunshine go

I discovered the sunshine in my darling's loving smile
Like a fool I thought the sun had come to stay
Then she fell for another and the sun went out of style
And the springtime vanished when she went away

Where did the sunshine go why is it raining so...
[ instrumental ]
Where did the sunshine go why is it raining so...
Where did the sunshine go why is it raining so...

East Virginia

Eric Darling - Bob Carey - Alan Arkin

© E.B. Marks Music, BMI

I was born in East Virginia North Carolina I did go
There I met the fairest maiden her name and age I did not know

Her hair it was a light brown color her lips they were red ruby's red
On her breast she wore white lily there I longed to lay my head

I was born in East Virginia North Carolina I did go...

I'd rather be in some dark holler where the sun don't never shine
Than to know she loved another and to know she'd never be mine

I was born in East Virginia North Carolina I did go...
Her name and age I did not know

Rainbow

Russ Hamilton

© Glenwood Music, ASCAP

I'm saving my money to buy you a rainbow
A rainbow to fit on your finger
After I've gone and bought you the rainbow
I'll go out and I'll buy you the moon

When we go walking side by side in the moonlight
We count the stars as we go strolling by
Maybe one day will on those beautiful diamonds
That glisten like the teardrops from your eyes
[ instrumental ]
I'm saving my money to buy you a rainbow...

I Want A Girl

Willie Nelson

© Pamper Music, BMI

I want a girl whose heart has been broken
By a love that has passed her by
I want a girl whose lips have been taken
By lips that have kissed and lied

I want a girl whose heart has known pain
The kind that I'm feeling in mine
One who will understand how I feel
And one who will not make me cry
I want a girl whose heart has been broken
The way that my darling broke mine
[ instrumental ]
I want a girl whose heart has known pain...

Three Steps To The Phone (Millions Of Miles)

Harlan Howard

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

It's only three steps to the phone
I could say we're just three steps apart
I could say it but I'd be so wrong
For I'm millions of miles from your heart

It's only eight steps to the door
That you entered so many times
But you'll never walk in anymore
But I'm millions of miles from your mind

We were very happy and you loved me till we happened alone
Then our world of love fell apart
Now it's only three steps to the phone
But I'm millions of miles from your heart
[ instrumental ]
We were very happy and you loved me till we happened alone...

I Will Miss You When You Go

Ernest Tubb - Henry Stewart

© Ernest Tubb Music, BMI

I will miss you when you go much more than you'll ever know
But I'll have a memory to keep you near
In my heart you will remain but it just won't be the same
I will miss a million things that make you dear

Your lovely ways make you so sweet I prayed the angels fair will keep
You're happiness oh you'll be blessed just as you deserve to be
And as you travel on your way just remember that each day
Someone thinks of you and hopes you're happy dear
[ instrumental ]
(I ask for a silver star to shine brightly where you are
To guide your way through all eternity)
And when it's shining from above it will sparkle down with love
In all its glory for the world to see

Your kindly heart will help you find the happiness you have in mind
Your treasured chest will be the best cause it's filled with God's sunshine
I wonder why there are so few lovely people just like you
My but I will surely miss you when you go (when you go)

Those Brown Eyes

Woody Guthrie - Eric Darling - Bob Carey - Alan Arkin

© Sanga Music, BMI

One evening when the sun was low my brown eyes whispered I must go
Not one second would she wait she kissed my cheek but left my gate

Those brown eyes I love so well those brown eyes I long to see
How I long for those brown eyes but strangers they have grown to be

One night I met her on the street I tipped my hat but did not speak
Another man walked by her side and soon I thought she'd be his bride

Those brown eyes I love so well those brown eyes I long to see...

Six long years for me she cried it was her brother by her side
Now up in heaven for all to see my brown eyed angel waits for me

Those brown eyes I love so well those brown eyes I long to see...
But strangers they have grown to be

If You Don't Somebody Else Will

Johnny Mathis - Jimmy Fautheree - Geraldine Hamilton

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

If you don't wanna kiss me say so baby
Somebody else will somebody else will well you know they will
If you don't wanna kiss me say so baby
Somebody else will somebody else could kiss me better

Now I ain't a gonna beg you for your love anymore
Ever since the first time I have done learned the score
I thought I had to have you once but that's in the past
And since I found out I'm free from you well I'm free at last

If you don't wanna hold me say so baby
Somebody else will somebody else will well you know they will
If you don't wanna hold me say so baby
Somebody else will somebody else could hold me better
[ instrumental ]
If you don't wanna be mine say so baby
Somebody else will somebody else will well you know they will
If you don't wanna be mine say so baby
Somebody else will somebody else could love me better

Baby Blue Eyes

Jerry Jacobson

© MCA Music, BMI

I met her and with just a glance I thought I found my one romance
She smiled and I was in a trance I called her baby blue eyes
We fell in love right from the start and then she said we'd never part
Who ever think she'd break my heart oh not my baby blue eyes

And then one day she went away I didn't know why
Too later on I heard she's gone with some other guy
So now I sit and cry all day my friends all shake their heads and say
Too bad it had to end this way he lost his baby blue eyes

And then one day she went away without even saying why
My darling's gone guess I'll live on but I'll just hate to try
So now I sit and cry all day my friends all shake their heads and say
Too bad it had to end this way he lost his baby blue eyes
I lost my baby blue eyes bye bye baby blue eyes

Life's Railway To Heaven

M.E. Abbey - Charlie Tillman

© Bridge Building Music, BMI

Life is like a mountain railroad with an engineer that's brave
We must make each run successful from the cradle to the grave

Watch the curves the fills the tunnels never falter never fail
Keep your hand upon the throttle and your eye upon the rail

Blessed Savior Thou must guide us till we reach that blissful shore
Where the angels wait to join us in Thy grace forevermore
[ instrumental ]
Blessed Savior Thou must guide us till we reach that blissful shore...
In Thy grace forevermore
