My Woman My Woman My Wife

Marty Robbins

© Mariposa Music, BMI

Hands that are strong but wrinkled doing work that never gets done
Hair that's lost some of its beauty by too many hours in the sun
Eyes that show some disappointment and there's been quite a lot in my life
She's the foundation I lean on my woman my woman my wife

Every day has been uphill we climb but we can't reach the top
I'm weak and I'm easily discouraged she just smiles when I want to stop
Lips that are weary but tender with love that strengthens my life
A saint in a dress made of gingham my woman my woman my wife

Two little babies were born in the spring but died when the winter was new
I lost control of my mind and my soul but my woman's faith carried us through

When she reaches that river Lord you know what she's worth
Give her that mansion up yonder cause she's been through hell here on earth
Lord give her my share of heaven if I've earned any here in this life
Cause God I believe she deserves it my woman my woman my wife
My woman my woman my wife

Once A Day

Bill Anderson

(Once a day every day all day long)

When I found somebody new I thought I never would
Forget you for I thought then I never could
But time has taken all the pain away
Until now I'm down to hurtin' once a day

Oh once a day all day long and once a night from dusk till dawn
The only time I wish you weren't gone is once a day every day all day long
[ instrumental ]
(Once a day every day all day long)

I'm so glad that I'm not like a friend I knew one time
He lost the one he loved then slowly lost his mind
He sat around and cried his life away
Well lucky me I'm only crying once a day

Oh once a day all day long and once a night from dusk till dawn...
Is once a day every day all day long

Here We Go Again

Don Lanier - Red Steagall

© Dirk Music, BMI

Here we go again she's back in town again
I'll take her back again one more time
Here we go again the phone will ring again
I'll be her fool again one more time

I've been there before and I'll try it again
But any fool knows that there's no way to win
Here we go again she'll break my heart again
I'll play the part again one more time
(I'll be her fool again one more time)

(I've been there before and I'll try it again)
But any fool knows that there's no way to win
Here we go again she'll break my heart again
I'll play the part again one more time
I'll be her fool again one more time

Make The World Go Away

Hank Cochran

© Pamper Music, BMI

Make the world go away and git it off my shoulders
Say the things you used to say and make the world go away

Do you remember when you loved me before the world took me astray
If you do then forgive me and make the world go away

Make the world go away and git it off my shoulders...

I'm sorry if I hurt you I'll make it up day by day
Just say you love me like you used to and make the world go away

(Make the world go away) and git it off my shoulders
Say the things you used to say and make the world go away
Say the things you used to say and make the world go away
(Make the world go away away)

The Tip Of My Fingers

Bill Anderson

© Champion Music, BMI

I reached out my arms and I touched you
With soft words I whispered your name
I held you right on the tip of my fingers
But that was as close as I came

My eyes had a vision of sweet lips
Yielding beneath my command
I held your love on the tip of my fingers
But I let it slip right through my hands
Yes I let it slip right through my hands

Somebody took you when I wasn't looking
And I should have known from the start
It's a long long way from the tip of my fingers
To the love hidden deep in your heart
To the love hidden deep in your heart

I held your love on the tips of my fingers
But I let it slip right through my hands
But I let it slip right through my hands

Detroit City

Mel Tillis - Danny Dill

© Cedarwood Pub, BMI

I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I want to go home

Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
And I dreamed about those cotton fields and home
I dreamed about my mother dear old papa sister and brother
I dreamed about that girl who's been waitin' for so long

I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I want to go home

Homefolks think I'm big in Detroit City
From the letters that I write they think I'm fine
But by day I make the cars and by night I make the bars
If only they could read between the lines

You know I rode the freight train north to Detroit City
After all these years I find that I've just been wastin' my time
So I just think I'll take my foolish pride put on a Southbound freight and ride
And goin' back to the loved ones the ones I left waitin' so far behind

I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I want to go home
I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I want to go home
(I wanna go home oh how I wanna go home)

Together Again

Buck Owens

© Central Songs, BMI

Together again my tears have stopped falling
The long lonely nights are now at an end
The key to my heart you hold in your hand
And nothing else matters we're together again
[ strings ]
(Nothing else matters we're together again)

Together again the grey skies are gone
You're back in my arms now where you belong
The love that I knew is living again
And nothing else matters we're together again
And nothing else matters we're together again
(Together again)

Heart Over Mind

Mel Tillis

© Cedarwood Pub, BMI

I love you so much that I can't leave you
Even though my mind tells me I should
Then you make me think you really love me
Then all my thoughts of leaving do no good

You've got me heart over mind worried all the time
Knowing you will always be the same
You'll keep hurtin' me I know but I just can't let you go
Cause my heart won't let my love for you change
[ instrumental ]
Now friends tell me they see you out with others
In my heart I try hard to forget
You come home and tell me you still love me
I still hope there's some chance for us yet

You've got me heart over mind worried all the time...

Cause my heart won't let my love for you change
Cause my heart won't let my love for you change

Turn The World Around

Ben Peters

© Shelby Singleton Music, BMI

Turn the world around the other way back it up and stop on yesterday
Back to before that silly fight and give me a chance to make things right

I said some things I didn't mean to say things that I am sorry for today
Down on my knees I beg you please to turn the world around the other way

I never really wanted us to break up
Snd I'm sorry for each teardrop that you've cried
We need to give our hearts a chance to make up
And darling will you stand in by my side

We'll turn the world around the other way back to where it started yesterday
Just take my hand together we can turn the world around the other way

Turn the world around the other way back it up and stop on yesterday
Just take my hand together we can turn the world around the other way
Yes turn the world around the other way

It Keeps Right On A Hurtin'

Johnny Tillotson

© Ridge Music, BMI

(And it keeps right on a hurtin' since you're gone)

I cry myself to sleep each night wishing I could hold you tight
Life seems so empty since you went away
The pillow where you lay your head now holds my lonely tears instead
And it keeps right on a hurtin' since you're gone

It keeps right on a hurtin' every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
And I can't help it I don't think I can go on
And it keeps right on a hurtin' since you're gone

They say a man should never cry but when I see you passing by
My heart breaks down and cries a million tears
You broke my heart and set me free but you forgot your memory
And it keeps right on a hurtin' since you're gone

Yes it keeps right on a hurtin' every minute of the day...
And it keeps right on a hurtin' since you're gone
