Don't You Believe Her

Nat Stuckey

She can give you a reason to live if she wants to
She can make you forget other loves that you've known
She has two lips and two arms that thrill you as bad if you do
And if you want her to give them to you she will

Don't you believe her
I did and soon she'll be leaving me
Don't you believe her
I did and soon she'll be leaving you
[ instrumental ]
She can tell you a lie you'll believe if she has to
And you'll trust her till time and the tide both stands still
She can cry on your shoulder and swear to the things that she won't do
Ah but be careful cause when you're not looking she will

Don't you believe her...
Don't you believe her...

Almost Persuaded

Billy Sherrill - Glenn Sutton

© Al Gallico Music, BMI

Last night all alone in a barroom
Met a girl with a drink in her hand
She had ruby red lips and coal black hair
And eyes that would tempt any man

Then she came and sat down at my table
And as she placed her soft hands in mine
I found myself wanting to kiss her
For temptation was flowing like wine

And I was almost persuaded
To strip myself of my pride
Almost persuaded
To push my conscience aside

Then we danced and she whispered I need you
Take me away from here and be my man
Then I looked in her eyes and I saw it
The reflection of my wedding band

And I was almost persuaded
To let soft lips lead me on
Almost persuaded
But your sweet love made me stop and go home

Mickey Jaco

© Wilderness Music, BMI

People say when I walk by
There he goes a lucky guy
He got a big long car a lotta money too
But I don't wanna be with me
If you're not with me too

Fancy clothes diamond rings
Pretty house yeah all these things
People say he can't be blue
But I don't wanna be with me
If you're not with me too
[ instrumental ]
My fancy clothes my diamond rings
Pretty house yeah all these things
I'd give them all up for you
Cause I don't wanna be with me
If you're not with me too

No I don't wanna be with me
If you're not with me too

I Made Her That Way

George Jones - Dale Ward

© Glad Music, BMI

See that girl over there by the jukebox
Hear the lonely song that she plays
Well you ask me if I know why she's cryin'
I know a little I made her that way

Well you ask me if I know why she's lonely
And why her head is dizzy from wine
And did I know she was everybody's baby
I know a little for once she was mine

Well I knew her when she was happy
And I love you was all she could say
But a lot of times I let her get lonely
I know a little I made her that way
[ instrumental ]
I knew her when she was happy...
I know a little I made her that way

The Wild Side Of Life

William Warren - Arlie Carter

© Unart Music, BMI

You wouldn't read my letter if I wrote you
You asked me not to call you on the phone
But there's something I'm wanting to tell you
So I wrote it in the words of this song

I didn't know God made honky tonk angels
I might have known you'd never make a wife
You gave up the only one that ever loved you
And went back to the wild side of life
[ instrumental ]
The glamour of the gay night life has lured you
To the places where the wine and liquor flow
Where you wait to be anybody's baby
And forget the truest love you'll ever know

I didn't know God made honky tonk angels...

There Stands The Glass

Russ Hull - Mary Jean Shurtz - Audrey Grisham

© Jamie Music, BMI

There stands the glass that will ease all my pain
It will settle my brain it's my first one today
There stands the glass fill it up to the brim
Till my troubles grow dim then I'll be on my way

I wonder where you are tonight
I wonder if you are all right
I wonder if you think of me in my misery
There stands the glass fill it up to the brim
Till my troubles grow dim then I'll be on my way

I wonder where you are tonight...

Look Into My Teardrops

Harlan Howard - Don Bowman

© Wilderness Music, BMI

Look into my teardrops and darling you will see
The reflection of an angel that made a fool of me
Look into my teardrops and you will see the eyes
That promised me so many things but all of them were lies

Look into my teardrops in the mirror of my soul
And you will see the girl who stilled my only world but I couldn't hold
Look into my teardrops and you will see the one
That broke my heart forever aren't you proud of what you've done

Look into my teardrops in the mirror of my soul...
[ instrumental ]
Look into my teardrops in the mirror of my soul...

If You Were Mine To Lose

Mickey Jaco

© Wilderness Music, BMI

If you were mine to lose I'd gladly let you go
Cause that would mean you once belonged to me
I'd gladly face the heartache of losing you some day
Cause then at least I'd have a memory

Through all the years I've known you you've never noticed me
Just a friend that's all I've been to you
I'd gladly let you break my heart for just one memory
Just to know that you were mine to lose

If I could only hold you just one time
For one short moment heaven would be mine
If you were mine to lose I'd gladly let you go
Just to know that you were mine to lose

If I could only hold you just one time...

Fraulein

Lawton Williams

© Travis Music, BMI

Far across these blue waters lives an old German's daughter
On the banks of the old River Rhine
Where I loved her and left her but I can't forget her
She is my pretty Fraulein

Fraulein Fraulein look up toward the heavens
At nights when the stars start to shine
By the same stars above you I swear that I love you
You are my pretty Fraulein
[ instrumental ]
My memories wander away over yonder
To the sweetheart that I left behind
In a moment of glory her face came before me
The face of my pretty Fraulein

Fraulein Fraulein walk down by the river
Pretend that your hand's holding mine
By the pale moon above you I swear that I love you
You are my pretty Fraulein

Take Me

Leon Payne - George Jones

© Glad Music, BMI

Take me
Take me to your darkest room
Close every window and bolt every door
The very moment I heard your voice
I'd be in darkness no more

Take me to your most barren desert
A thousand miles from the nearest sea
The very moment I saw your smile
It would be like heaven to me

There's not any mountain too rocky to climb
No desert too barren to cross
Somewhere if you could just show a sign
Of love I could bear any loss

Take me to Siberia
And the coldest weather of the wintertime
It would be just like spring in California
As long as I knew you were mine

There's not any mountain too rocky to climb...
Take me to Siberia...

Another Man's Woman

Harlan Howard

© Wilderness Music, BMI

I've tried to be strong I've tried to leave town
This conscience of mine is getting me down
I needed a love someone sweet and kind
But another man's woman was all I could find

Another man's woman how low can I get
It's too soon to answer for I'm fallin' yet
There's so many others who need love like mine
But another man's woman was all I could find
[ instrumental ]
There's so many others who need love like mine
But another man's woman was all I could find

Before I'll Set Her Free

Mickey Jaco

© Wilderness Music, BMI

I stood and saw the judge's gavel fall
And much to my dismay these words I've heard him say
I've listened to your story boy and it seems to me
You'd be better off if you'll set her free

But I love her I love her down on my knees I cry
And I don't want to lose her heaven knows I try
To make her happy but she wants more than me
And I'll take her like she is before I'll set her free
[ instrumental ]
Judge I know she loves me in her own kind of way
Even though she hurts me a hundred times a day
You tell me that it's better that I should set her free
But judge what would you do if you were me

You see I love her I love her inspite of all she's done
And I'll keep right on hopin' someday that time will come
When she'll decide that she wants only me
And I'll take her like she is before I'll set her free
