Big Big Heartaches

At night I try to sleep but sleep won't come
So I walk the floor and greet the morning sun
The past with all its lurin' memories
Controls this broken heart inside of me

Big big heartaches hurt me so
How can I make my foolish heart let go
Big big heartaches keep hanging on
Big big heartaches since you're gone
[ instrumental ]
I guess that I will always be a fool
My heart will always tell me what to do
My mind tells me it's best to let you go
My heart cries out that I still love you so

Big big heartaches hurt me so...
Big big heartaches since you're gone

Why Does The Lady Cry

Through the window of the toy-shop I saw them
A little girl holdin' hands with her dad
I wanted to run to her but I couldn't let her know
That I am the mother she never had

She never knew that her mommie was outside
She was a baby when I told them goodbye
Then they walked out past me and I heard her asked her dad
Daddy why does the lady cry
[ instrumental ]
I stood there till they were out of sight
Deep in mem'ry all the days gone by
As they walked on their way there we echoes left behind
Daddy why does the lady cry

White Lightning

J.P. Richardson

Well in North Carolina way back in the hills
Lived my old pappy and he had him a still
He brewed white lightnin' till the sun went down
He fill him a jug and he pass it around
Mighty mighty pleasin' my pappy's corn squeezin'
(Whew white lightnin')

Well the G men T men revenoers too
Searchin' for the place where he made his brew
They were lookin' tryin' to book him
But my pappy kept on cookin'
(Whew white lightnin')
[ instrumental ]
Well a city slicker came and he said I'm tough
I think I'd like to taste that powerful stuff
He took one slug and he drank it right down
I heard him moanin' as he hit the ground
Mighty mighty pleasin' my pappy's corn squeezin'
(Whew white lightnin')

Well the G men T men revenoers too...
[ instrumental ]
Well I asked my old pappy why he called his brew
White lightnin' stead of mountain dew
I took a little sip and right away I knew
My eyes bugged out and my face turned blue
Mighty mighty pleasin' my pappy's corn squeezin'
(Whew white lightnin')

Well the G men T men revenoers too...

The Mood I'm In

Melba Montgomery - Carl Montgomery

From my window I can see the light at the place we used to go
And in the distance I hear laughter from all the friends I know
I dress to go and they'll expect me they invited me but then
A party just don't fit the mood I'm in

There's not supposed to be teardrops where there's people havin' fun
And I know I'll shed millions between now and gone
There's no use to try enjoy them I just pole the knife for them
Their company won't change the mood I'm in
[ instrumental ]
Yes I'll take a walk all by myself to try and lose my blues
I can't stay here in this lonely room I once shared with you
My heart is filled with our ol' mem'ries of things I know won't be again
A party just don't fit the mood I'm in

Lies Can't Hide What's On My Mind

Melba Montgomery - Carl Montgomery

The nights I spend in old familiar places
Dancin' to a jukebox playin' loud
Everywhere I go I search the faces
Hopin' I'll see you among the crowd

I try to hide the way I feel about you
But the smile I wear don't fool your friends or mine
They know I lie when I say I don't need you
And the lies can't hide what's on my mind
[ instrumental ]
At times it's hard to cover up my feelings
When someone speaks your name I fall apart
Instead of tears I smile to hide emotions
That I've had lost inside my broken heart

But a close look in my eyes reveals the sadness
And it scares away each new love that I'd find
My lips can say I love you to another
But the lies can't hide what's on my mind

I'm Never Gonna Be The Same

Melba Montgomery - Carl Montgomery

Take a look at me tell me what do you see
I know you're gonna find just a little bit of sign made by misery
I can't give my heart to somebody new
The day my world fell apart you took my heart with you

All of my friends keep a tellin' me I've changed
And it's true without you I'm never gonna be the same
When I lost you I lost a part of me too
And I'm never gonna be the same old me without you
[ instrumental ]
All of my friends keep a telling me I've changed...
No I'm never gonna be the same old me without you

Constantly

Melba Montgomery

© Glad Music, BMI

If my face shows that I'm lonesome when a tear falls on my cheek
And to you I seem a stranger keep to answer when you speak
If at times I seem unhappy deep inside it's the real me
Since I've lost my one and only I've been hurtin' constantly

If you see me talkin' to myself at night walkin' along
These aren't the only foolish things I've done since he's been gone
I may suddenly start cryin' if I'm home or on the street
Since I've lost my one and only I've been hurtin' constantly

(Since I've lost my one and only I've been hurtin' constantly)

All the time I'm hurtin' all the time I'm blue
Can't find consolation when my heart won't forget you
If at times I seem unhappy deep inside it's the real me
Since I've lost my one and only I've been hurtin' constantly
Since I've lost my one and only I've been hurtin' constantly

I'll Always Keep On Loving You

Johnny Mathis

I say tomorrow I'll forget you
That I won't always be this blue
I'll soon forget I ever met you
But I'll always keep on lovin' you

I'll try to hate you even though you're down
I guess I told a million lies on you
I've even said I'm glad you're not around
But I'll always keep on lovin' you
[ instrumental ]
I'll tell my heart at times to live again
I say I'll find another too
Cause I don't ever seem to make it
Cause I'll always keep on lovin' you

I'll try to hate you even though you're down...

Yearning (To Kiss You)

George Jones - Eddie Eddings

© Starday Music, BMI

Yearning to be with the one I can't agree with
Yearning to hear you call my name
Like a fool I left you and now I can't forget you
Please forgive me take me back again

I'll never be the same without you darlin'
You'll always be my everything
My love for you's still burnin' and my poor heart is yearnin'
While you wear another's name

Yearning to hold you and let my arms unfold you
Yearning to hear you call my name
Yearning to kiss you oh darlin' how I'LL miss you
Oh how I wish you felt the same

I never knew how much you cared about me
I thought that you were foolin' me
Now I'm yearning to kiss you oh darlin' how I'll miss you
I wish that we could make commence sweetheart

I Can't Change Overnight

George Jones - Johnny Mathis

© Glad Music, BMI

There's a love in my heart that I'd been keepin'
I don't know how to give it away to someone new
Though you just walked away and left me weepin'
And I can't change overnight from lovin' you

If I can't walk with you then I'll walk all alone
Where my feet touch the ground then that's where I'll call home
Though you say to forget the love that we once knew
I can't change overnight from lovin' you
[ instrumental ]
Oh you say to forget the lips I used to kiss
Find someone to take the place of the love I still miss
I don't like all this loneliness that I go through
I can't change overnight from lovin' you

If I can't walk with you then I'll walk all alone
Where my feet touch the ground then that's where I'll call home
I don't like all this loneliness that I go through
I can't change overnight from lovin' you
