That Just About Does It

Max D. Barnes - Vern Gosdin

Every night you go to bed crying
There's nothing left to do when love is dying
So before the whole world knows how we're hurtin'
Don't you think it's time we pulled the curtains

So many times I talked you out of leavin'
And so many times you've tried to fight the feeling
I guess we've tried and failed once too often
Now the suitcase down the hallway does the talking

That just about does it don't it
That'll just about kill it won't it
Maybe we should call a truce
We could but what's the use
That just about does it don't it

It's sad to think that words could come between us
And what I said God knows I didn't mean it
It's time we realized this time it's over
It's tearing us apart to stay together

And that just about does it don't it
That'll just about kill it won't it
Maybe we should call a truce
We could but what's the use
That just about does it don't it

Maybe we should call a truce
We could but what's the use
That just about does it don't it

Take Me Home To Alabama

Hank Cochran - Mack Vickery - Vern Gosdin

Take me home to Alabama
I've been gone much longer than I cared to be
Take me back to Alabama
Where the Heart of Dixie waits for me
And the Heart of Dixie beats for me

Too many years have passed since I've been home
And I don't know what's changed since I've been gone
Though I know it's just as beautiful as I recall
And I can hardly wait to see it all

Huntsville to the moon, and Birmingham
To the white sandy shores of Alabam'
Ooh Alabama the beautiful where I was raised
And I don't know just what took me away

Take me home to Alabama
And let that sun and sunshine shine on me
Take me back to Alabama
Where the Heart of Dixie waits for me
And the Heart of Dixie beats for me

Take me home to Alabama
Where the Heart of Dixie waits for me
And the Heart of Dixie beats for me

I'm Still Crazy

Buddy Cannon - Vern Gosdin - Steve Gosdin

Well I woke up one morning with a note up on my chest
It said I'm gone for good you're no longer with the best
I never dreamed there'd ever be another made for you
So I just went crazy there was nothing left to do

I used to be crazy over you
Nobody else could move me like you used to
I had to be out of my mind thinking I'd soon be over you
But I'm still crazy and I'm not over you

When the bad news finally hit me lord it hurt me to the bone
I was just a fool to think you could be just a little bit gone
But it would be easy it wouldn't be hard to forget
Little did I know that I hadn't seen nothing yet

I used to be crazy over you
Nobody else could move me like you used to
I had to be out of my mind thinking I'd soon be over you
But I'm still crazy and I'm not over you

Oh I'm still crazy and I'm not over you
Oh I'm still crazy and I'm not over you
Oh I'm still crazy and I'm not over you

Do Me A Favor

Hank Cochran - Buddy Cannon - Vern Gosdin

I am an anti everything man
A scab on the lips of the Lord
My caustic dismissal is all I need to get you
To fall on your sword

It's easy to live fast
It's harder to live I woke up today with a gun
Ignoring your history is killing your past
You might run forever if death never lasts

So do me a favor
Your behavior is just a reason why
There is no savior when you're wasted
Let's face it there's a side of you that
Knows you're a failure lives for the danger
Feels like an enemy but looks like a stranger

The bell has rung on the titans
Everybody give us some room
Your so called set of fake morals
I can't tell the difference is that an excuse

The matter at hand is a matter of time
A sad little kid with broken toys
Your dogmatic license has kept you inside
What will you do when you're burning alive

So do me a favor...
So do me a favor...

I don't mind my old dead story
And I don't want to lie to you
I know my glory will never be the same as truth
By now my only enemy is you

I won't go slowly I'll leave you behind
Leave you behind leave you behind
Leave you behind

Tanqueray

Hank Cochran - Mack Vickery - Vern Gosdin

Once again I slip back in the gin and settle in
Oh my bottle and me sail out to sea to meet her again
Than El Cafe Khartoum near a quiet lagoon
Where we played and played
All the ladies sing your Caribbean dreams drinking Tanqueray

Tanqueray take me away
You're a time machine that I need day by day
Tanqueray take me away
Each time that I need her gets sweeter and sweeter
Take me away Tanqueray

Morning comes takes me from another night with you
So I hurry through what I have to do to get back to you
That El Cafe Khartoum near a quiet lagoon
Where we played and played
All the ladies sing your Caribbean dreams drinking Tanqueray

Tanqueray take me away
You're a time machine that I need day by day
Tanqueray take me away
Each time that I need her gets sweeter and sweeter
Take me away Tanqueray

Each time that I need her gets sweeter and sweeter
Take me away Tanqueray

Alone

Max D. Barnes

Alone at a table for two alone waiting for you
I ordered the wine like so many times before
Then a chill crawled all over me
My God! This is how it would be
If you just didn't love me any more

I never knew how much I loved you
Until I sat here all by myself
You know you control my heart and my soul
There'll never be anyone else
So don't be surprised at these tears in my eyes
It's a feeling I've never known
Now I can see I was never meant to be alone

Alone I'd never stand tall alone I'd be nothing at all
Your empty chair nearly scared me to death
And then you walked through that door
And my heart started beating once more
Oh please don't ever leave me here like this

I never knew how much I loved you...

It's a feeling I've never known
Now I can see I was never meant to be alone
Oh now I can see I never want to be alone

Right In The Wrong Direction

Hank Cochran - Mack Vickery - Vern Gosdin

Well your office called to say you wouldn't be long
Since when did your boss get a jukebox of his own
When I called to see how long you'd be they said you'd been long gone
You're headed right in the wrong direction if you wanna come home

Well you're leaving clues that any ole fool can see
Honey you're the fool if you think your foolin' me
If you wanna go just let me know we can sure enough get it all
You're headed right in the wrong direction if you wanna come home

If you want to keep your home you better straighten up your act
Cause honey I can love you I can even help you pack
If you turn around and come home now I just might not be gone
You're headed right in the wrong direction honey if you wanna come home
Well your headed right in the wrong direction honey if you wanna come home

I'm Only Going Crazy

Max D. Barnes - Vern Gosdin

Take the house take our rings
Take the car take everything
Things just won't be the way they were before
Take it all take your time
Take what's yours take what's mine
Where I'm going I just won't need them anymore

Leave the one that loves you so
And leave the heart that won't let go
And two arms that won't hold you anymore
There's nothing left to say or do
Can't blame me can't blame you
Where I'm going it just don't matter anymore

I'm only going crazy you're leaving me I know
It's just around the corner I don't have very far to go
For me it's almost over as far as you're concerned
I'm only going crazy I've already made the turn
I'm only going crazy I've already made the turn

You're Not By Yourself

Hank Cochran - Buddy Cannon - Vern Gosdin

You're leaving without a reason
At least a reason you just won't say
You won't tell me where you're going
Or if you're going to stay

And if you thought your leaving would kill me
Honey would you still go anyway
And if you thought your staying would save me
Ooh I'm ready to be saved

You say your not leaving for somebody else
I guess I believe that it's true
And if you find your future is the past that you left
And if you're all alone you're not by yourself

You say your not leaving for somebody else
I guess I believe that it's true
And if you find your future is the past that you left
And if you're all alone you're not by yourself
If you're all alone you're not by yourself
