Georgia Keeps Pulling On My Ring

David Wilkins - Tim Marshall

© Emerald Isle Music, BMI

Georgia sweet sweet Georgia keeps pulling on my ring

Most men would give their right off or anything they own
To have a woman just like you to be waitin' when they come home
But the devil made me cheat on you one too many times
And honey I'm sorry but she left heaven on my mind

Georgia sweet Georgia keeps pulling on my ring
I need her and I love her Lord she's a sweet and precious thing
Her sweet and easy loving Lord beats all I've ever seen
Georgia sweet sweet Georgia keeps pulling on my ring

I didn't wanna fall in love with anybody else
But when I tasted heaven Lord I just couldn't help myself
I pray someday that you'll forget and forgive me for all these things
I just can't seem to love you with Georgia pulling on my ring

Georgia sweet Georgia keeps pulling on my ring...

Honky Tonk Song

Mel Tillis - Buck Peddy

© Cedarwood Pub, BMI

Got me room in a cheap hotel
My head was a spinnin' and I didn't feel well
I laid right down and tried to go to sleep
A band kept a playin' in the joint underneath
I picked up my pillow and I covered up my head
But the band kept a playin' and a shaken my bed

Honky tonk all night long honky tonk same old song
Honky tonk my money's all gone honky tonk she done me wrong
I turned and I tossed and I couldn't go to sleep
Cause the band kept a playin' with a honky tonk beat
[ instrumental ]
I'm so blue my baby's gone
She took all my money and she left me all alone
I'm tryin' to forget her but I don't know what to do
The honky tonk song keeps a leakin' through
I picked up my pillow and I covered up my head
But the band kept a playin' and a shaken my bed

Honky tonk all night long honky tonk same old song...
Honky tonk all night long honky tonk same old song...

Let It Ring

David Barnes

© Neverbreak Music, ASCAP

I lie in bed this lonely bed and suddenly I cry
The night is cold and I'm alone and you're the reason why
I never thought I'd miss someone the way that I miss you
I guess the joke's on me cause I'm the one who said we're through

You always saved your love for me no matter what the price
And even when you knew you'd lose you made the sacrifice
But I'm the one who always had to have somebody new
I'd laugh and say don't call me now look who's calling who

But let it ring please don't answer cause I don't know what I'd say
If I heard your voice I might break down and throw my pride away
Just let it ring please don't answer that at least I know I've tried
And I'll still be the only one who knows how much I cried
And I'll still be the only one who knows how much I cried

Yours To Hurt Tomorrow

Peggy Forman

© Hello Darlin' Music, SESAC

I hold her close and try to do the things you never did
I love her like a woman and tease her like a kid
I do the things I hope will bring sunshine to her life
She'll be yours to hurt tomorrow but she's mine to love tonight

She'll hurry home tomorrow to pretend that she's a wife
But if you show just a little love she wouldn't be here tonight
She's found warmer lips to kiss her loving arms to hold her tight
She'll be yours to hurt tomorrow but she's mine to love tonight
[ steel ]
What a shame that you forgot what this woman's love can bring
If you just do the things you did before you changed her name
But until then I'll be the man who brightens up her life
She'll be yours to hurt tomorrow but she's mine to love tonight

She'll hurry home tomorrow to pretend that she's a wife...

She Loves Me

Tony Joe White - Shirl Milete

© Tree Pub, BMI

You've always been good to me and I know how hard you tried
And maybe that should be enough to keep me satisfied
But the lonely in a man needs more than just a friend
And that's where she came in and she loves me

I know you've walked an extra mile
You could always find a smile
That could hold me for a while but she loves me
[ steel ]
You're a good and faithful woman and I hope someday you'll find
Someone who'll bring out in you the love I've been denied
But as for me it's over I've finally found another
And I'm sorry but I love her and she loves me

I know you've walked an extra mile...
She loves me

The Grandest Lady Of Them All

Bob Morrison - Mel McDaniel

© Music City Music, ASCAP

She's never in the spotlights but everybody knows that she's the star
And once she shines opon you she'll make you truly proud of where you are
She'll wipe away the pain of all the dues you had to pay
When the curtain to her world starts to unfold
With mother tender hand she will applaud and feed the hunger in your soul

And she's known as the Grand Ole Opry
Where the legend come to call
She's the queen of country music
She's the grandest lady of them all

She sings of desperados and lonesome whistle love and midnight train
And the coal mines of Kentucky and how it feels to be out in the rain
She sings of Texas cowboys of hoboes and of heroes
And the loneliness up where and prison blues
But most of all she sings about the common people just like me and you

And she's known as the Grand Ole Opry...

Maybelline

Chuck Berry - Alan Freed - Russ Fratto

© Arc Music, BMI

As I was motivatin' over the hill I saw Maybelline in a Coupe DeVille
Cadillac movin' down an open road nothin' outrunnin' my V-8 Ford
Cadillac doin' bout ninety-five bumper to bumper rollin' side to side

Maybelline why can't you be true
Oh Maybelline why can't you be true
You done started back
Doin' the things you used to do

Well the Cadillac moved up ahead of the Ford
The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
It done got cloudy and started to rain I tooted my horn for the passin' lane
The rain water blown all under my hood I knew that were doin' my motor good

Maybelline why can't you be true...
[ guitar ]
Well now the motor cooled down and the heat went down
And that's when I heard that highway sound
Cadillac settin' like a ton of lead a hundred and ten a half a mile ahead
Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still I caught Maybelline at the top of the hill

Maybelline why can't you be true...

I've Never Loved You More

Raymond Smith

© Hello Darlin' Music, SESAC

I got out of bed this morning smoked a cigarette or two
Then I read the morning paper just the way I always do
Saw a picture of you darling and I thought of yesterday
And I know I've never loved you more than I'm loving you today

Heard my wife say come to breakfast and I quickly turned away
She said darling what's the matter aren't you feeling well today
Oh it's just an old discomfort and it soon will go away
But I know it's never hurt me more than it's hurtin' me today

What a shame to waste a woman like the one I married to
But I know I could love her if it's only worth for you
I keep praying old mem'ries soon will fade away
But I know I've never loved you more than I'm loving you today

Victim Of My Needs

John Riggs

© Cross Keys Pub, ASCAP

I'll go out tonight in hopeful desperation
Though I know there's little chance that I'll succeed
I just got to search this town until I find you
I've become a victim of my needs

I cried as finally realized the hurt you left is twice my size
The tears I shed can't drown the pain inside
My mind I'm sure this time will go if I don't bring you home I know
That I've become a victim of my needs
[ steel ]
I just need to hold you close and taste your kisses
How I miss the kind of life we used to live
I got chills that I can't warm with all the sweet wine
I've become a victim of my needs

I cried as finally realized the hurt you left is twice my size...

I Never Did Quite Get Over You

Monk Gentry

© Hello Darlin' Music, SESAC

Oh yes you were my first love I was your first love too
But I never did quite get over you
I almost forgot you almost a time or two
But I never did quite get over you

When I had to leave for a little while you promised you'd wait
But the days were long and the nights were cold just plain the rest on fate
When I heard you found a new love I found the new love too
But I never did quite get over you
[ steel ]
I hear your new love really loves you mine really loves me too
But I never did quite get over you
I almost forgot you almost a time or two
But I never did quite get over you
No I never did quite get over you
