You think you've lost your love
Well, I saw her yesterday
#01)
Honey, what's this jazz about love, honor, and obey?
That cat's talkin' to me!
#02)
A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
#03)
When I feel blue in the night
And I need you to hold me tight
#04)
Without your sweet love
What would life be?
#05)
I miss her lips and the smile on her face
The touch of her hand and this girl's warm embrace
#06)
Everyone is dancing
Yes, and gay
Cheetah, Boy, and Tarzan
Even Jane
Swinging from the trees
#07)
Well, I told your mama that you'd be in by ten
#08)
I left my baby and I feel so bad
I guess my race is run
Well, she's the best gal I've ever had
#09)
My dreams can all come true if you'll care for me
This love that I feel for you was just meant to be
#10)
Why do you miss
When my baby kisses me?
#11)
Just tonight I stood before the tavern
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
#12)
I recall the yellow cotton dress
Foaming like a wave
On the ground around your knees
#13)
Young girls picked them, every one
#14)
Hiya, folks
You say you lost your job today?
You say it's 4 AM and your kids ain't come home from school yet?
#15)
It's thunder and rain
But it's all the same
(La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la)
Ha, I'm payin' for this call
And I don't mind at all
#16)
Don't know just what I said wrong
But girl, I apologize
Don't go, here's where you belong
So wipe the tears from your eyes
#17)
I won't let you leave my love behind
#18)
The music stopped, there wasn't a sound
Over in the corner stood Bad Man Brown
Brown smiled and grinned, he said, "My friend,
You take three steps farther and I'm gonna do you in"
#19)
I'd ring it in the morning
I'd ring it in the evening
#20)
A heart can be easily broken
A heart can even stand still
A heart can be easily broken
But I know that mine never will
#21)
When he holds me tight
And he says he's mine
Sends those chills up and down my spine
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
He's the handsomest boy (he's the handsomest boy) that I ever did see
#22)
And the people in the houses
All go to the university
#23)
Well, darlin', now that you're gone
I don't know what I'll do
All the time and all my love for you
#24)
Please turn me loose
What's the use?
#25)
------------
Tie-Breakers
------------
Want some whiskey with your water?
Or sugar in your tea?
What are these crazy questions they're asking me?
This is the wildest party that ever could be
#T1)
So I fell down on my knees and I prayed
That the Lord would end our evil ways
And you threw your lovin' arms around me
#T2)
