Blue Kentucky Girl

Johnny Mullins

© Sure-Fire Music, BMI

You left me for the bright lights of the town
A country boy sat out to see the world
Remember when those neon lights shine down
That big old moon shines on your Kentucky girl

I swear I love you by the moon above you
How bright it's shining in your world
Some morning when you wake up all alone
Just come on home to your blue Kentucky girl
[ instrumental ]
Don't wait to bring great riches home to me
I need no diamond rings or fancy pearls
Just bring yourself you're all I'll ever need
That's good enough for this blue Kentucky girl

I swear I love you by the moon above you...
Just come on home to your blue Kentucky girl

The Wayfaring Stranger

Brian Ahern

© Leeds Music, ASCAP

I am a poor wayfaring stranger
While traveling through this world of woe
Yet there's no sickness toil or danger
In that bright world to which I go

I'm going there to see my father
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm only goin' over Jordan
I'm only goin' over home
[ instrumental ]
I know dark clouds will headin' around me
I know my way is tough and steep
Yet beauteous fields lie just before me
Where God's redeemed their vigils keep

I'm going there to see my mother
She said she meet me when I come
I'm only goin' over Jordan
I'm only goin' over home

Beneath Still Waters

Dallas Frazier

© Blue Crest Music, BMI

Beneath still waters there's a strong undertow
The surface won't tell you what the deep water knows
Darling I'm saying I know something's wrong
Beneath still waters your love is gone

Even a fool could see that you'll soon be leaving me
But each and every heart must take its turn and misery
This time it's me and I'll cry alone
Beneath still waters your love is gone
[ instrumental ]
Even a fool could see that you'll soon be leaving me...

Beneath still waters your love is gone
Beneath still waters your love is gone

Born To Run

Paul Kennerley

© Irving Music, BMI

Well I never did crawl and I never did toe the line
No man is master to me I ain't that kind
I just put on my travelin' shoes if you want to win you just can't lose
The time or stay behind

Well I was born to run to get ahead of the rest
To know that I wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free and be someone
I was born to be fast I was born to run

I've taken chances the times I've made mistakes
But you don't get a thing unless you take the breaks
Living as dangerous as dynamite sure makes you feel nervous
But it makes you feel all right makes you feel all right

Well I was born to run to get ahead of the rest...
[ instrumental ]
Nobody gonna make me do the things their way
By the time you figure it out it's yesterday
It comes to he who waits I'm told
But I won't need it when I'm old and gray yeah I want it today

Well I was born to run to get ahead of the rest...
I was born to run to get ahead of the rest...

Someone Like You

Bob McDill - Dickey Lee

© Jack Music, BMI

Others have touched me soft in the night
And others have kissed me and held me tight
Good times and lovers I've had a few
But I was just waiting for someone like you

Others have loved me before your time
Some who were gentle some who were kind
Don't it seem funny I never knew
I was just waiting for someone like you

No I never wasted a minute of my time
Cause every road I ever took led me to your side
I have been lonely and I have been loved
I got used to losing what I'm fondest of
But it's all so clear now my whole life through
I was just waiting for someone like you

Mr. Sandman

Pat Ballard

© E.H. Morris Co, ASCAP

Mr Sandman bring me a dream
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen
Give him two lips like roses and clover
Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over

Sandman I'm so alone
Don't have nobody to call my own
Please turn on your magic beam
Mr Sandman bring me a dream

Mr Sandman bring me a dream
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen
Give him the word that I'm not a rover
Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over

Sandman I'm so alone...

Mr Sandman bring me a dream
Give him a pair of eyes with a some hither gleam
Give him a lonely heart like Pagliacci
And lots of wavy hair like Liberace

Mr Sandman someone to hold
Would be so peachy before we're too old
So please turn on your magic beam
Mr Sandman bring us please please please
Mr Sandman bring us a dream

I'm Movin' On

Hank Snow

© Hill And Range Songs, BMI

Yeah that big eighteen wheeler rollin' down the track
Means your true lovin' mama ain't comin' back
I'm movin' on I'll soon be gone
You were flyin' too high for my little old sky I'm movin' on
That big loud whistle as it blew and blew
Said hello to the Southland we're comin' to you
I'm movin' on keep rollin' along
Yeah you had the laugh on me but I've set you free and I'm movin' on
[ instrumental ]
Mister fireman won't you please listen to me
Cause I got a pretty daddy in Tennessee
Keep movin' me on keep rollin' on
So shovel the coal let this rattle a roll and keep movin' me on
Mister engineer take that throttle in hand
This rattler's the fastest in the Southern land
Keep movin' me on keep rollin' on
You can ease my mind put me there on time and movin' on
[ instrumental ]
I warned you baby from time to time but you just wouldn't listen or pay me no mind
I'm movin' on keep rollin' along
You have broken your vow and it's all over now I'm movin' on
You switched your engine now I ain't got time
For a trifling woman on my main line I'm movin' on keep rollin' on
I've warned you twice now you can settle the price I'm movin' on

(Lost His Love) On Our Last Date

Conway Twitty - Floyd Cramer

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

It's over our love affair too late now I find I care his sweet love no more I'll share
Now he's gone I'm alone I was wrong should have known took me home on our last date
I searched for a simple way to tell him what I had to say
I kissed him watched him walk away
Set him free foolishly destiny misery tragedy on our last date
[ instrumental ]
Took the ring from my tremblin' finger brushed the tears from my baby's eyes
Walked away didn't know but I'll soon miss him so I guess I was too young to realize
So blind I couldn't see how much he really meant to me
And that soon he would always be on my mind in my heart
I was blind from the start lost his love on our last date

Save The Last Dance For Me

Doc Pomus - Mort Shuman

© Rumbalero Music, BMI

You can dance
Every dance with the girl who gives you the eye
Let her hold you tight
You can smile
Every smile for the girl who'd like to treat you right
Neath the pale moonlight
But don't forget who's takin' you home
And in who's arms you're gonna be
Oh darlin' save the last dance for me

Oh I know that the music's fine like sparklin' wine
Go and have your fun
Dance and sing
But while we're apart don't give your heart to anyone
And don't forget who's takin' you home
And in who's arms you're gonna be
Oh darlin' save the last dance for me

You can dance
Go and carry on till the night is gone
And it's time to go
If she asks if you're all alone can she take you home
You must tell her no

And don't forget who's takin' you home
And in who's arms you're gonna be
Oh darlin' save the last dance for me
And don't forget who's takin' you home
And in who's arms you're gonna be
Oh darlin' save the last dance for me
