If You're Gonna Do Me Wrong (Do Me Right)

Max D. Barnes - Vern Gosdin

There's a closet full of dresses that I bought you
And here's the keys to the new car in the drive
And before you leave our room put on your best perfume
If you're gonna do me wrong do it right

Oh the next time the phone rings I won't answer
I don't wanna be the fool I was tonight
I don't wanna know the truth I don't wanna see the proof
If you're gonna do me wrong do it right

If you're gonna break my heart all to pieces
Just walk right out and leave me and end it all tonight
Take off your wedding band when he takes you by the hand
If you're gonna do me wrong do it right

Take off your wedding band when he takes you by the hand
If you're gonna do me wrong do it right

Slow Burnin' Memory

Max D. Barnes - Vern Gosdin

You taught me how to love you
Now you expect me to forget you
After all the promises we made
So I tell my heart it's over this hurt can't last forever
Just until the heartaches fad away

You got a slow burning memory
Maybe I'll get over you in time
Slow burning memory
Keeps on burning a hole in my mind

The day you said goodbye I began to realize
It would take a while for my broken heart to mend
I had hoped that you were dealing
With the same heartaches I'm feeling
Maybe our love was just dying to live

You got a slow burning memory
Maybe I'll get over you in time
Slow burning memory
Keeps on burning a hole in my mind

You got a slow burning memory
Keeps on burning a hole in my mind

This Ain't My First Rodeo

Hank Cochran - Dean Dillon - Vern Gosdin

You say you're mama called and you must go
She's down in the bed and needs you so
And you don't know if you'll be coming home tonight or not
But honey ain't your mama sick a lot

Lately you're head hurts every night
Could it be you wear your clothes too tight
Since you don't seem to hear or see a thing I say or do
Then I know there's nothing I can do for you

This ain't my first rodeo
This ain't the first time this old cowboy's been throwed
This ain't the first I've seen this dog and pony show
This ain't my first rodeo

You're telling me you lost you're wedding band
Somehow you say it slipped right off you're hand
And when I asked about those boxes stacked there by the door
You say it's just some old things you don't wear no more

I didn't make it all the way through school
But my mama didn't raise any fool
I may not be the Einstein of our time
But honey I'm not dumb and I'm not blind

This ain't my first rodeo
This ain't the first time this old cowboy's been throwed
This ain't the first I've seen this dog and pony show
Honey this ain't my first rodeo

Today My World Slipped Away

Mark Wright - Vern Gosdin

We made it final today
I gave you all I had you made your get away
All the love we once made
Turned to memories today

I left the courtroom and went straight to the church
I hit my knees and told God how much I hurt
There's nothing left of my heart
It's going to be so hard to make a new start

Cause today my world slipped away
We buried the plans that we made
And tonight I'm alone and afraid
Cause today my world slipped away

All my friends say I'll make it alright
I'll recover and start a new life
But that'll be so hard to do
Cause livin' ain't worth livin' without you

Cause today my world slipped away
We buried the plans that we made
And tonight I'm alone and afraid
Cause today my world slipped away
Cause today my world slipped away

Way Down Deep

Max D. Barnes - Max T. Barnes

This highway of heartache is rocky and rough
And I learned a long time ago
You can't build a fire in the ashes of love
And roses don't bloom in the snow

Down way down deep inside my soul
Where once it was cold and dark
I can feel your love take hold
Way down deep in my heart
[ instrumental ]
You were my light on the darkest of days
Through storms that were raging within
Then slowly but surely the clouds rolled away
And the sun started shining again

Down way down deep inside my soul...
Down way down deep inside my soul...
Down way down deep inside my soul...
Down way down deep inside my soul...

Is It Raining At Your House

Hank Cochran - Dean Dillon - Vern Gosdin

Is it raining at your house like it's raining at mine
Do you miss me like I miss you is it cloudy all the time
Do you tremble when the phone rings and you think I'm on the line
Is it raining at your house like it's raining at mine

Does it thunder and lightnin' even when the sun shines
Is it raining at your house like it's raining at mine

Is it raining at your place just like it is over here
If it is then sweetheart like me I know you're scared
I just called you to console you like any old friend would do
Is it raining at your house and by the way I still love you

Friday Night Feelin'

Richard Landers

Like so many times before
Her voice still echoes down the hallway
I won't be coming back no more

Five nights a week I kept her happy
We lived in perfect harmony
But our trouble starts on Friday
That feeling takes control of me

It's that Friday night feeling
That I can't seem to control
Pretty ladies and sweet music
It's down deep in my soul

And this feeling won't leave me
Till Sunday morning comes
Oh, this Friday night feeling
It won't let me go home

I just stopped in to cash my paycheck
Thought I drink one then go home
Then I saw that good looking lady
Setting at the bar alone

Well, she had that look of needing someone
Felt that feeling coming on strong
Oh, this Friday night feeling
Just won't let me go home

Till The End

Cathy Gosdin

If I never see your loving face again
I'll go on loving you till the end
And if my broken hearted love don't find a way to mend
I'll go on lovin' you till the end

The years and miles may separate you from me
The pain may lessen more as time goes by
But as for me your memories will never fade
And I'll go on lovin' you till the end

If we're ever free to love again I know
Straight to your waiting arms is where I'll go
And there I'll stay forever and I'll prove to you again
I'll go on lovin' you till the end
I'll go on lovin' you till the end

I Can Tell By The Way You Dance (You're Gonna Love Me Tonight)

Sandy Pinkard - Robb Strandlund

I can see every time I look into your eyes
You don't care a thing about those other guys
Without words you make me understand what's on your mind
The rhythm of your body close to mine
I can tell by the way you dance
That you're gonna love me tonight

Sometimes it's cold sometimes it's hot
Love's either right or it's wrong
Feels so good love you a lot
Right here beside me is where you belong

I don't care if everybody knows the way I feel
Until the dream of holdin' you is real
I can tell by the way you dance
That you're gonna love me tonight
[ instrumental ]
Sometimes it's cold sometimes it's hot
Love's either right or it's wrong
Feels so good love you a lot
Right here beside me is where you belong

I don't care if everybody knows the way I feel
Until the dream of holdin' you is real
I can tell by the way you dance
That you're gonna love me tonight

I can tell by the way you dance
That you're gonna love me tonight

Ooh ooh I can tell by the way you dance
That you're gonna love me tonight

Oh I can tell by the way you dance
That you're gonna love me tonight

Time Stood Still

Robert Jone

You made my world go round
But now it's upside down
Time stood still
When you said goodbye

You made my heart complete
Then broke it at my feet
Time stood still
When you said goodbye

And now the seasons don't change
The days have no names today is like yesterday
I lean on the wine but your memories
Like time baby won't stay away

To get you off my mind
Just takes a little time
But time stood still
When you said goodbye

And now the seasons don't change
The days have no names today is like yesterday
I lean on the wine but your memories
Like time baby won't stay away

To get you off my mind
Just takes a little time
But time stood still
When you said goodbye

Was It Just The Wine

Buddy Cannon - Vern Gosdin

Yeah we laughed and talk and joke a while
Yeah we drank a few
Yet I waltz across the dance floor with you

Did we look each other in the eye
Did we see a sign
Did we fall in love or was it just the wine

Or was it just the wine
That made me break right down
And cry with the blues
Or was it just a memory of someone
Before you're tellin' me we're through

Did I hold your body close to mine
Did we make promises till the end of time
Did we fall in love or was it just the wine

Or was it just the wine
That made me break right down
And cry with the blues
Or was it just the memory of someone
Before you're tellin' me we're through

Did I hold your body close to mine
Did we make promises till the end of time
Did we fall in love or was it just the wine
