Baby Ain't That Fine

Dallas Frazier

© Blue Crest Music, BMI

I'm gonna be your baby and I'm gonna be your guy
We're gonna cook some lovin' it's gonna sizzle and fry
Baby ain't that fine baby ain't that fine

I'm gonna give you lovin' and I'll say take your time
We'll be rockin' and swingin' higher than a Georgia pine
Baby ain't that fine baby ain't that fine

I get a little bitty tingle up and down my spine
My head gets dizzy everytime you say you're mine

The birds are gonna be singin' the bells are gonna chime
We're gonna love each other and the sun is gonna shine
Baby ain't that fine baby ain't that fine

I get a little bitty tingle...
The birds are gonna be singin'...
Baby ain't that fine baby ain't that fine

If I Were

Earl Montgomery

© Glad Music, BMI

If I were your friend then I wouldn't be very blue
Cause sometimes you would have me around you
If I were a smile I could feel your lips so warm
If I were your love then would I be in your arms

If I were a prayer you say before you go sleep tight
Then I know I'd be in your mind tonight
If I were a song the words you sing would tell of me
If I were your love then I wouldn't be lonely

Wishful thinking in a world of fantasy
Yes someone you just forgot
And you only might as well believe
For I can be something that I'm not

If I were your picture your love for me would always last
If I were your love then I wouldn't be just your past
If I were your love then I wouldn't be just your past
No if I were your love then I wouldn't be just your past

I've Got A New Heartache

Wayne P. Walker - Ray Price

© Cedarwood Pub, BMI

You're back in town again spreadin' talk around
That I'm still in love with you though you let me down
I hate to admit it but I guess the talk is true
Or else you couldn't make my heart ache the way you do

I've got a new heartache about an old sweetheart
That's left me for somebody new
I've got a new heartache about an old sweetheart
And that's why I'm feeling so blue
[ instrumental ]
Why did you turn up again I was doing fine
I'd found another sweetheart to drive you from my mind
I thought that I'd forgotten you but I know that it's not true
Or else you couldn't make my heart ache the way you do

I've got a new heartache about an old sweetheart...

I'm A People

Dallas Frazier

© Blue Crest Music, BMI

There I was on the marquee a workin' for a livin'
I've been gettin' instead of a givin'
A hangin' by my tail a waitin' for the dinner bell
Puttin' humans off

Every day them fools rush in
And lay down my cage and watch them grin
I put 'em all off I'd hum a little song
And watch 'em all go tee-hee

But I spell a P a little bitty E
Sweet bop bop bop shoo shoobie doobie doh
In a little round O
Now you add another P a big skinny L
There's one more E
And you got a people that looks like me

Now a monkey don't have to go down town
And ask for a job and gettin' turned down
I'm mad at me I could smash me cause I'm a people
[ instrumental ]
Now a monkey don't have to shoot and speak
All he do is drink his fees
Oh me what luxury but I'm a people

Now I spell a P a little bitty E
Sweet bop bop bop shoo scoobie doobie doh
In a little round O
Now you add another P a big skinny L
There's one more E
And you got a creature that looks like me

Now if anyone knocked on my door today
There'd be a little sign says gone away
Down to the zoo diggin' you know who
Cause I'm a people

Now I spell a P a little bitty E...

That's All It Took

George Jones - Darrell Edwards - Charlotte Grier

© Glad Music, BMI

That's all it took the mention of your name
And all my love for you burst into flame
I've tried so hard to let you go by look
How I still tremble at your name that's all it took

That's all it took to make me know that I still care
It seems my heart just can't give up the dreams we used to share
I tell my friends I'm happy but they read me like a book
And when today I heard them say your name that's all it took
[ instrumental ]
That's all it took to make me yearn to your embrace
I guess I might as well admit no one can take your place
I tell my friends I'm happy but they read me like a book
For when today I heard them say your name that's all it took
For when today I heard them say your name that's all it took

Simply Divine

Melba Montgomery

© Glad Music, BMI

When your arms hold me I thrill through and through
When your arms hold me I thrill the same too
No other can take it from these arms of mine
Oh this feeling you give me is simply divine

We're meant for each other we both know it's true
And everyone round us say the same too
Just one kiss from your lips tells me you're mine
Oh this feeling you give me is simply divine
[ instrumental ]
Just being near you means so much to me
If ever I'd lost you how lonesome I'd be
I'll love you forever till the end of the time
Oh this feeling you give me is simply divine

We're meant for each other...

Feudin' And Fightin'

Larry Brittain

© Glad Music, BMI

You don't love me and you never did
You won't even help me mind these kids
All you wanna do is run around every night
Givin' all the girls the eye

Well you don't never comb your hair no more
You won't do the dishes and you won't sweep the floor
So how can you accept me to take you anywhere
Lookin' like a grizzly bear

Every durn night they're a feudin' and a fightin'
Screamin' and a hollerin' like thunder and lightnin'
My dagburn neighbors can't never agree
It's about to get the best of me

Well my wife keeps a sayin' that I outta call the cop
I keep a layin' here a hopin' they'll stop
And the kids are a howlin' til they woke ours too
Why don't they hurry up and get through

Well I shoulda known better than to marry you
There's better lookin' critters in the city zoo
You come home plastered every night
And all you wanna do is fight

Well all I wanna do is just have a little fun
A little drink or two when my work is done
I don't know why I ever bought that ring
Well I guess I musta been insane

Every durn night they're a feudin' and a fightin'...

Well my wife keeps a sayin' that I outta call the cop...

Well the kids are a howlin' till they woke ours too
Why don't they hurry up and get through

King And Queen

Earl Montgomery

© Glad Music, BMI

When they count all the tears that we cried
We'll break all records for the scar we'll be hidin'
When they bow down to failures say your majesty
Then king and queen we'll surely be

When they give a large banquet for fools
The guests of honor will be just me and you
Built to gold thrones to b-room by the lonely
Then king and queen we’ll surely be

We let our love lie around till it got dusty
From lack of use it faded from sight
When they give us a diamond for each memory
Then king and queen we'll surely be

We let our love lie around till it got dusty...
Then king and queen we'll surely be

My Shoes Keep Walking Back To You

Bob Wills - Lee Ross

© Valley Pub, BMI

I may say that I don't care and hold up head up in the air
Even tell my friends I'm glad that you don't call
But when the day is through and my heartaches start anew
Well that's when I miss you most of all

And my arms keep reaching for you my eyes keep searching for you
My lips keep calling for you and my shoes keep walking back to you
[ instrumental ]
No matter how much I pretend I wish I had you back again
For nothing else means half as much as you
My world just seemed to die the day you said goodbye
And I can't forget no matter what I do

And my arms keep reaching for you...
And my shoes keep walking back to you

I'm Looking For The Man

Melba Montgomery - Earl Montgomery

© Glad Music, BMI

I'm looking for the man looking for the man
I'm looking for the man so I must go
I'm looking for the man looking for the man
I'm looking for the man that I love so

Don't pour me a drink bartender I'm not here for wine
Don't show me a vacancy for I don't have the time
I'm looking for the man I made mad tonight
Accusing him of doing wrong when he was doing right

I'm looking for the man looking for the man...

Don't play me a song band leader just say when he left
Don't ask me to dance mister go ask someone else
I'm looking for the man before it's too late
For me to ask forgiveness for that one moment of hate

I'm looking for the man looking for the man
I'm looking for the man and he's not here
I'm looking for the man looking for the man
I'm looking for the man through all my tears
I’m looking for the man through all my tears

Your Old Standby

Jim Eanes - Wayne Perry

© Glad Music, BMI

(I'm nothing more than just your old standby)

A shoulder to cry on is all you want from me
Someone to share your heartaches when you cry
Someone you can depend on who will always be around
I'm nothing more than just your old standby

If you could call me darling if you could call me dear
If you could learn to love me by and by
I wouldn't mind this waiting for I could stand the pain
I'd be more to you than just your old standby
[ instrumental ]
You wouldn't call me darling and you wouldn't call me dear
I wonder if you'll miss me when I die
You have no consideration you show no sympathy
I'm nothing more than just your old standby

If you could call me darling...

Being Together

Melba Montgomery - Earl Montgomery

© Glad Music, BMI

Being together as two friends
This all our love has ever been
Now even our friendship has gone
When we're together we're all alone

Being together to forget
The ones we loved before we met
But now their mem'ries linger on
When we're together we're all alone

Being together all this time
With someone else on our mind
For them our love grew stronger as time went by
When we're together we're all alone

Being together all these years
We'll end up witout any tear
This is what we agree upon
When we're together we're all alone
