Timber I'm Falling

Ferlin Husky - Dalton Timbur

(Timber timber)

Timber I'm falling true love is calling
Timber I'm falling in love with you
Well timber I'm falling true love is calling
Timber I'm falling in love with you

Well you're my little baby I don't mean maybe
You've got me wearing my brand new shoes
I like your walking I like your talking
Good morning sunshine and goodbye blues

Well timber I'm falling true love is calling...
[ instrumental ]
Timber I'm falling true love is calling...

Well I'll ask your mama I'll ask your papa
If they will give me their daughter's hand
Well you've got the honey I've got the money
Two dollars cash and the preacher man

Well timber I'm falling true love is calling...
Said timber I'm falling true love is calling...
Timber timber timber

Don't Count The Diamonds

Ferlin Husky - Dalton Timbur

© Husky Music, BMI

Don't count the diamonds in her wedding band
Until she wears it on her hand

I once believed in all she told me
My faithful bride she was to be
But then a thief walked in between us
And stole her love away from me

Don't count the diamonds in her wedding band
Until she wears it on her hand
Don't count the diamonds in her wedding band
Until she wears it on her hand

My heart has finally learned it's lesson
To never love just anyone
You can't believe on someone's promise
Until the promise has been done

Oh don't count the diamonds in her wedding band
Until she wears it on her hand

As Close As We'll Ever Be

Harlan Howard

© Central Songs, BMI

Once those two lips were true lips they meant every word they said
But a woman has the right to change her mind and you did
Was on a June night of moonlight when you said you loved me
But that's as close as we will ever be

That's as close as we will ever be
You took back the heart you gave me
Once we planned and we schemed we talked and we dreamed
But that's as close as we will ever be

Yes we planned and we schemed we talked and we dreamed
But that's as close as we will ever be

Somebody Save Me

Alex Zanetis

© Tuckahoe Music, BMI

Throw me a life line I'm caught in the sea
Of perfume and sweet talk she's temptin' me
Somebody save me I'm falling in love
With a beautiful angel that fell from above

Throw me a life line I'm caught in the sea
Of perfume and sweet talk she's temptin' me
Somebody help me I'm tumbling through space
And a million bright stars I see all picture her face
[ instrumental ]
Throw me a life line I'm caught in the sea...
Throw me a life line I'm caught in the sea...

Just Another Lonely Night

Bettie Husky

Just another lonely night

An ashtray filled with cigarettes but none with lipstick stains
A secret place where lovers met but never will again
I hate to sit here all alone with blues for company
But I'll just stay here by the phone in case you call for me
Just another lonely night just another lonely night

The coffee's cold and heartaches call oh why can't it be you
Please don't let this be the end of the love that we once knew
I can't believe that you won't call so I'll just sit and wait
My foolish heart keeps telling me she's just a little late
Just another lonely night just another lonely night

Stand Up

Cliff Crofford

© Central Songs, BMI

Stand up if you've ever had the feelin'
Stand up yes and let yourself be counted
Stand up and everybody shout it
Stand up stand up by me

Well I just got laid off a job
I went for my unemployment claim
The man said I didn't qualify
Come back a year from today

Stand up if you've ever had the feelin'...

Stand up if you've ever had the feelin'...

Well I just got married last week
The biggest wedding you ever saw
She gave me another family
Ten brothers and a mother-in-law

Stand up if you've ever had the feelin'...
Stand up if you've ever had the feelin'...
Stand up if you've ever had the feelin'...

The Face Of A Clown

Carolyn Penick

© Moss-Rose Pub, BMI

It's hard for me to smile I feel like crying
Yet I always manage to grin
Friends won't know the pain that I feel
Or know the misery I'm in

Everyone thinks I'm happy
For I smile and never frown
But looks are deceiving and nobody knows
The hurt behind the face of a clown

I've got a little pride my tears I'll hide
Whenever you're around
You'll never know you hurt me so
For I have a face of a clown

I'll try to conceal the pain I feel
I won't let it get me down
You won't have the pleasure of knowin'
The hurt behind the face of a clown
The hurt behind the face of a clown

Love Looks Good On You

Jerry Shook

© Sure-Fire Music, BMI

I've never seen that look in your eyes before
I've never seen that smile on your lips before
I guess I never knew what true love could do
But love sure looks good on you

I can tell he's been more than good to you
He's done more than I ever hoped to do
He's given you that look that I wanted to
And love sure looks good on you

I thought I had loved you but I see I was wrong
Now I know that in his arms is where you belong
It's been a long long time since I've seen you
And I miss you much more than I wanted to

So I guess I'd better go before I let it show
One more thing love looks good on you
Love sure looks good on you

Who's Next

Carolyn Penick

© Moss-Rose Pub, BMI

(Who's next to be who's next to me to be the first on your list)

I was the first one to hold you in my arms
I was the first one to capture all your charms
I was the first one to ever make you fall
You were playin' a game put my love to shame
And I wasn't the first one at all

So who's next to take my place
Who's next to share your embrace
Who's next to kiss your lips
Who's next to be who's next to me
To be the first on your list
[ instrumental ]
The people they told me what you would put me through
But I wouldn't listen I thought your love was true
Now I know better it's plain for me to see
After you took my heart and broke it apart you really didn't love me

So who's next to take my place...
Who's next to take my place...
Who's next to take my place...

Black Sheep

Jack Rhodes - Ferlin Husky

© Central Songs, BMI

(Black sheep black sheep)

This world holds many mysteries that I don't understand
One is why the wanderlust is born in the heart of a man
I kissed young lips that thrilled me so and set my soul on fire
I'm a black sheep boy and I just can't find the lips my heart desire

Black sheep (black sheep) black sheep (black sheep)
Why do I have to roam why can't I have a happy heart
Like other guys I've known

This wanderlust in my hungry heart keeps me on the go
I'm a black sheep boy there's a lot more oats that we've gotta sow

Black sheep (black sheep) black sheep (black sheep)
I've known life I've tasted love from a girl that's true and sweet
She haunts me in my dreams at night and I can hardly sleep
I wanna settle down so bad but my wanderin' heart says no
Black sheep boy there’s a lot more places we've gotta go

Black sheep (black sheep) black sheep (black sheep)...

I can hear my mama say as she sits there all alone
My black sheep boy is a coming back never more to roam

Black sheep (black sheep) black sheep (black sheep)...

Black sheep (black sheep) black sheep (black sheep)
Black sheep (black sheep) black sheep (black sheep)

It Scares Me

Ferlin Husky

© Husky Music, BMI

There isn't anyone in this whole wide world
I trust as much as I trust you my baby
But the thought of comin' home dear
And find you've gone oh oh how it scares me

Though I have faith in you in everything you do
It scares me just to think how it would be
The thought of someone new making love to you
Oh oh how it scares me
[ instrumental ]
Though I have faith in you in everything you do...
Oh oh how it scares me

Open Up The Book (And Take A Look)

Ferlin Husky - Lester Vanadore - Tommy Stough - Paul Johnson

© ATV Songs, BMI

It's all written there
Open up the Book and take a look
It's all written there
Open up the Book and take a look

Adam was the first man ever invented
He lived all alone and was never contented
The Lord took a rib and He made him a mate
Then Brother Adam made his first mistake

It's all written there...

Satan came along with an apple so bright
He tempted Eve and she took a big bite
Then came the troubles that we all know
Handed down from a long time ago

It's all written there...

Jonah went for a sail against the word of the Lord
Storm came up and they threw him overboard
Then came a whale and it swallowed him down
Three days later he was back on the ground

It's all written there...

Well the sky got cloudy and the world got dark
Then Brother Noah built himself an ark
Then came the animals two by two
The hippopotamus and kangaroo

It's all written there...
