Hang Your Head In Shame

Fred Rose - Ed Nelson - Steve Nelson

© Milene Music, ASCAP

Oh don't your conscience ever bother you
Everytime you hear my name
Think of all the harm that I've gone through
And hang your head in shame

Someone came along and took my place
And you gave me all the blame
Now you should go somewhere and hide your face
And hang your head in shame
[ instrumental ]
Oh when you said I was the only one
Was that just your little game
Now look back at all the wrong you've done
And hang your head in shame

Oh you don't miss me since we've been apart
I wish that I could say the same
Think of how you broke my trusting heart
And hang your head in shame

That Silver Haired Daddy Of Mine

Gene Autry - Jimmy Long

© Western Music, ASCAP

In a vine covered shack in the mountains
Bravely fighting the battles of time
There's a dear one who's weathered life's sorrow
It's that silver haired daddy of mine

If I could recall all the heartaches
Dear old daddy I've caused you to bear
If I could erase those lines from your face
And bring back the gold to your hair

If God would but grant me the power
Just to turn back the pages of time
I'd give all I own if I could but atone
To that silver haired daddy of mine
[ instrumental ]
If I could recall all the heartaches...
If God would but grant me the power...

I Can't Go On This Way

Fred Rose

© Milene Music, ASCAP

Oh moanin' low moanin' high hair is turning gray
Oh I don't care if I live or die I can't go on this way
Woe is me so is you what a price to pay
Tell me what I'm a gonna do I can't go on this way

Every night I walk the floor worried over you
All I do is watch the door hopin' you'll come through
Oh pacin' up pacin' down till the break of day
I'm the saddest soul in town I can't go on this way
[ instrumental ]
Oh where are you at tonight while I wait and pray
You know you ain't doin' right I can't go on this way
Lonesome me sad and blue tryin' hard to say
I'm so much in love with you I can't go on this way

Oh you don't want me anymore guess my love was blind
I never felt this way before bout to lose my mind
Oh moanin' low moanin' high hair is turning gray
I don't care if I live or die I can't go on this way

That Little Boy Of Mine

Wayne King - Benny Maroff - Walter Hirsch

© Morris Music, BMI

A tiny turned up nose two cheeks just like a rose
So sweet from head to toes is that little boy of mine
Two arms that hold me tight two eyes that shine so bright
Two lips that kiss goodnight that little boy of mine

No one will ever know just what his coming has meant
Uh huh I love him so he's something heaven has sent
He's all the world to me he climbs upon my knee
To me he'll always be that little boy of mine
[ instrumental ]
No one will ever know just what his coming has meant...

Farther And Farther Apart

Fred Rose

© Milene Music, ASCAP

We're getting farther and farther apart dear
I see a far away look in your eyes
I guess I'm losin' my place in your heart dear
You're wonderin' how you're to tell me goodbye

That ole spark of love has stopped burnin'
But somehow I knew from the start
You'd soon grow tired of the heart that was yearnin'
We're getting farther and farther apart
[ instrumental ]
I keep each moment we shared as a token
I hide the thrill of your kiss in my heart
It's hard to know that these words must be spoken
We're getting farther and farther apart

The romance we treasured is ending
I hold back the teardrops that start
I guess there's no use to go on pretending
We're getting farther and farther apart

Never Have Never Will

Tim Johnson - Steven Jones

© Blackwood Music, BMI

I never have and never will my dear step out on you
I cross my heart and swear that I don't want nobody new
Darling please don't think that I've been running round on you
I never have and never will I cross my heart it's true

I've never had but just one love and that one love is you
And if I ever lost you dear I don't know what I'd do
Honest hon I swear that I don't want nobody new
I never have and never will I cross my heart it's true
[ instrumental ]
I've never had but just one love and that one love is you...

I Dreamed Of An Old Love Affair

Jimmie Davis - Charles Mitchell - Bonnie Dodd

© Peer Int, BMI

Just like old time you were here last night
Gone was my worry and care
But when I awoke I knew then that I
Had dreamed of an old love affair

I was alone in the darkness my dear
Many dreams ago you left me there
Sunlight told me you were gone and I
Had dreamed of an old love affair
[ instrumental ]
I've been so lonely since you said goodbye
I loved you with all of my heart
Heaven was mine when you smiled last night
And said that we'd make a new start

Life seems so empty without you my dear
If it's sun or rain I just don't care
Sunlight told me you were gone and I
Had dreamed of an old love affair

Daddy's Little Girl

Bobby Burke - Horace Gerlach

© Ocheri Pub, ASCAP

You're the end of the of the rainbow my pot of gold
You're daddy's little girl to have and to hold
A precious Jim that's what you are
Your mommy's bright and shining star

You're the spirit of Christmas my star on the tree
You're the Easter bunny to your mommy and me
You're sugar you're spice you're everything nice
And you're daddy's little girl
[ instrumental ]
You're the end of the of the rainbow my pot of gold...

You Make Me Feel Funny Honey

Fred Rose

© Milene Music, ASCAP

Ooh you makes me feel so funny honey
When you make a love the way you do
Ooh you makes me feel so funny honey
Each time you kiss me it's somethin' new

I feels like anytime I'm gonna sprouts some wings and fly
Babe I really loves you and I will until I die
Ooh you makes me feel so funny honey
Does I make you feel a funny too
[ instrumental ]
Ooh you makes me feel so funny honey
Babe I feels like laughin' all the time
Ooh you makes me feel so funny honey
It's hard to really b'lieve that you are mine

I pinch myself to see if I'm dreamin' baby when I wake
All day long I thinks of you with every breath I take
Ooh you makes me feel so funny honey
Does I make you feel a funny too
Ooh does I make you feel a funny too

Rockin' Alone In An Old Rockin' Chair

Bob Miller

© DeSylva-Brown-Henderson Music, ASCAP

I saw an old mother with silvery hair
Rockin' alone in her old rockin' chair
She looked so neglected by those who should care
Rockin' alone in that old rockin' chair

Her hands all caloused wrinckled and old
A life of hard work is the story they told
And I've thought of angels as I saw her there
Rrockin' alone in her old rockin' chair
[ instrumental ]
I know of some kids in an orphanen's home
Who think they owned heaven if she was their own
They'd never be willing to let her sit there
Rockin' alone in that old rockin' chair

Bless her old heart do you think she'd complain
Though life has been bitter she'd live it again
And carry her burdens much more than her share
Rockin' alone in her old rockin' chair

Honky Tonkin' Party Girl

Bettie Westergard

© Central Songs, BMI

You honky tonkin' party girl what are you gonna do
When your youth fades in the past and men won't notice you
You live a tantalizin' life always looking for a deal
When you could be somebody's wife and live a life that's real
You honky tonkin' party girl what are you gonna do
When your youth fades in the past and men won't notice you
[ instrumental ]
You honky tonkin' party girl what are you gonna do
When your youth fades in the past and men won't notice you
You think it's fun to less abode in your world of sin
But tell me kid when you get old who'll you turn to then
You'll search around and try to find a love that's real and true
But you'll end up with someone that's lived a life like you
You honky tonkin' party girl what are you gonna do
When your youth fades in the past and men won't notice you

Useless

Martin Gore

© Blackwood Music, BMI

Useless to worry useless to care
The hurt that you brought me is more than I can bear
It cut like a knife dear when you said that we was through
I know it's useless to love you but I do

Useless useless useless to worry over you
But I can't stand the thought of you make love to someone new
If you thirst to love you but I do
[ instrumental ]
Useless useless useless to worry over you...
