Walkin' And Hummin'

Clyde Wilson

© Central Songs, BMI

I feel so alone as I walk from my home
With no one to help me share my blues
Oh what could be worse than be born with a curse
That everything you love you always lose
I don't feel like talkin' I just feel like walkin'
And keep on a hummin' uh uh uh
[ instrumental ]
I'd feel better inside if I'd let go my pride
Tell all my friends exactly what you've done
But what good would it do I still wouldn't have you
Forgive me if I cry and walk and hum
I don't feel like talkin' I just feel like walkin'
And keep on a hummin' uh uh uh

I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry

Hank Williams

© Fred Rose Music, BMI

Hear that lonesome whippoorwill he sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whinin' low I'm so lonesome I could cry

I've never seen a night so long when time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind a cloud to hide his face and cry

Did you ever see a robin weep when leaves began to die
That means he's lost the will to live I'm so lonesome I could cry

The silence of a falling star lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder where you are I'm so lonesome I could cry
I'm so lonesome I could cry

I Could Never Be Ashamed Of You

Hank Williams

© Fred Rose Music, BMI

Everybody says you let me down
I should be ashamed to take you round
Makes no difference what you used to do
Darling I could never be ashamed of you

Maybe you were reckless yesterday
But together we can find a brighter way
In my heart I know that you'll come true
Darling I could never be ashamed of you
[ instrumental ]
All the happiness I've ever known
Came the day you said you'd be my own
And it matters not what we go through
Darling I could never be ashamed of you

Maybe you were cheated in the past
And perhaps those memories will always last
Even though you prove to be untrue
Darling I could never be ashamed of you

I Can't Help It (If I'm Still In Love With You)

Hank Williams

© Fred Rose Music, BMI

Today I passed you on the street and my heart fell at your feet
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
Somebody else walked by your side and he looked so satisfied
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you

A picture from the past came slowly stealing
As I brushed your arm and walked so close to you
Then suddenly I got that old time feeling
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
[ instrumental ]
It's hard to know another's lips will kiss you
And hold you the way I used to do
Heaven only knows how much I miss you
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you

Undesired

Tommy Collins - Bettie Westergard

© Central Songs, BMI

Oh blue is my life by day by night
Nobody cares if I live or die
Is a man not a man when he ends it all
When he take his own before hearing the call

If a coward I'd be to yeld to misery
No mercy will I ask when I sip from the cask
I've been titled at last undesired
Can't death be as bad as the heartaches I've had
Will the death take away all the pain
All the pain from one undesired

My lover's so fair as seas not do care
My heart if full of grief and despair
Chance I fancy has rubbed me of lust
She remain but I know or I feel that I must

If a coward I'd be to yeld to misery...
Undesired undesired

May You Never Be Alone

Hank Williams

© Fred Rose Music, BMI

Like a bird that's lost its mate in flight I'm alone and oh so blue tonight
Like a piece of driftwood on the sea may you never be alone like me

I believed the lies you told to me when you said my dear I worship Thee
Now here am I alone and blue all because I loved no one but you
[ instrumental ]
I gave up my friends I left my home when you promised to be mine alone
Now you're gone our love could never be may you never be alone like me

In the Bible God's own words to say for every wrong someday you'll pay
I pray the Lord to set me free may you never be alone like me

My Shadow

Bettie Husky

© Central Songs, BMI

Like a shadow I stood by you
I was happy and thought you were too
But you turned out the light and made things so dim
That my shadow won't darken your door again

No my shadow won't darken your door again
When a light's gone a shadow will come to an end
And I know I'm no more to you than a friend
No my shadow won't darken your door again
[ instrumental ]
Like a shadow I followed you
Where you went I always went too
But I got lost in the fall and another stepped in
Now my shadow won't darken your door again

No my shadow won't darken your door again...

I Lost My Love Today

Ferlin Husky - Bettie Westergard

© Central Songs, BMI

I've seen people everywhere who said they didn't care
If life for them would come to an end and they just sit and stare
I've thought it was a shame I said they were insane
I couldn't see why they wanted to die but I didn't know the pain

I wonder what I'd say if my life turn out that way
I never knew but now I do I lost my love today
I lost my love today I lost my love today
I can't go on my heart is gone I lost my love today

Alone And Forsaken

Hank Williams

© Fred Rose Music, BMI

Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh Lord if you hear me please hold to my hand please understand

We met in the springtime when blossoms unfold
The pastures were green and the meadows were gold
Our love was in flower as summer grew on
Her love like the leaves now has withered and gone
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh Lord if you hear me please hold to my hand please understand

The roses have faded there's frost at my door
The birds in the morning don't sing anymore
The grass in the valley is starting to die
And out in the darkness the whippoorwills cry
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh Lord if you hear me please hold to my hand please understand

Oh where has she gone to oh where can she be
She may have forsaken some other like me
She promised to honor to love and obey
Each vow was a plaything that she threw away
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh Lord if you hear me please hold to my hand please understand hold to my hand

There'll Be No Teardrops Tonight

Hank Williams

© Fred Rose Music, BMI

I'll pretend I'm free from sorrow make believe that wrong is right
Your wedding day will be tomorrow but there'll be no teardrops tonight

Why oh why should you desert me are you doing this for spite
If you only want to hurt me then there'll be no teardrops tonight
v
I'll believe that you still love me when you wear your veil of white
But you think that you're above me so there'll be no teardrops tonight

Shame oh shame for what you're doing other arms will hold you tight
You don't care whose life you ruin so there'll be no teardrops tonight

Living In A Trance

Ferlin Husky

© Husky Music, BMI

You cast the spell on me the first time we met
Be wished and enchanted at first glance
Hypnotized by your command let you get the upper hand now I'm living in a trance
Living in a trance in a world of lost romance I never had a chance living in a trance
Captured by your charms living just for you
I was happy in our make believe romance
I never knew then the spell you had me in now I'm living in a trance
Living in a trance in a world of lost romance I never had a chance living in a trance

Why Should We Try Anymore

Hank Williams

© Fred Rose Music, BMI

What's the use to deny we've been living in lie that we should have admited before
We were just victims of a half hearted love so why should we try anymore

The vows that we make are only to break we drift like a wave from the shore
The kisses we steal we know are not real so why should we try anymore
[ instrumental ]
Our story so old again has been told on the past let's close the door
And smile don't regret just live and forget oh why should we try anymore
