Why don't you love me like you used to do?
How come you treat me like a worn out shoe? My hair is still curly and my eyes are still blue Why don't you love me like you used to do? Ain't had no lovin' like a-huggin' and a-kissin' in a long, long while We don't get nearer, further, closer than a country mile Why don't you be the sort you used to be? How come you find so many faults with me? I'm the same old trouble that you've always been through Why don't you love me like you used to do? Ain't had no lovin' like a-huggin' and a-kissin' in a long, long while We don't get nearer, further, closer than a country mile Why don't you spark me like you used to do? Say sweet nothings like you used to coo Somebody's changed, so let me give you a clue Why don't you love me like you used to do? |

Sweet dreams of you, every night I go through
I should hate you girl the whole night through Instead I'm having sweet dreams all about you You don't love me it's plain I should have known you'd never share my name Why can't I forget you girl, start loving someone new? Instead I'm having sweet dreams all about you Why can't I forget my past, start loving someone new? Instead I'm having sweet dreams all about you Sweet dreams of you, every night I go through I should hate you girl the whole night through Instead I'm having sweet dreams all about you |

We used to go out walkin' hand in hand
You told me all the big things you had planned It wasn't long till all your dreams came true Success put me in second place with you You have no time to love me anymore Since fame & fortune knocked upon our door I spend all my evenings all alone Success has made a failure of our home If we could spend an evening now & then Perhaps we'd find true happiness again You never hold me like you used to do It's funny what success has done for you You have no time to love me anymore Since fame & fortune knocked upon our door I spend all my evenings all alone Success has made a failure of our home |

You may be sweet and nice
That won't keep you warm at night 'Cause I'm the one who taught you how To do the things you're doing now He may feel all your charms He may hold you in his arms But I'm the one who let you in I was right beside you then Once upon a time You let me feel you deep inside And nobody knew, nobody saw Do you remember the way you cried? I'm your toy, I'm your old boy But I don't want no one but you to love me Oh I wouldn't lie You know I'm not that kind of guy Once upon a time You let me feel you deep inside And nobody knew, nobody saw Do you remember the way you cried? I'm your toy, I'm your old boy But I don't want no one but you to love me Oh I wouldn't lie You know I'm not that kind of guy Tonight The Bottle Let Me Down Tonight the bottle let me down It let your memory come around The one true friend I thought I'd found Tonight the bottle let me down I've always had a bottle I could turn to And lately I've been turnin' every day But the wine don't take effect the way it used to And I'm hurtin' in old familiar ways Tonight the bottle let me down It let your memory come around The one true friend I thought I'd found Tonight the bottle let me down Each night I leave the bar room when it's over Not feeling any pain at closing time But tonight your memory found me much too sober I can't drink enough to keep you off my mind Tonight the bottle let me down It let your memory come around The one true friend I thought I'd found Tonight the bottle let me down |

Tonight the bottle let me down
It let your memory come around The one true friend I thought I'd found Tonight the bottle let me down I've always had a bottle I could turn to And lately I've been turnin' every day But the wine don't take effect the way it used to And I'm hurtin' in old familiar ways Tonight the bottle let me down It let your memory come around The one true friend I thought I'd found Tonight the bottle let me down Each night I leave the bar room when it's over Not feeling any pain at closing time But tonight your memory found me much too sober I can't drink enough to keep you off my mind Tonight the bottle let me down It let your memory come around The one true friend I thought I'd found Tonight the bottle let me down |

We stood there in the courthouse room so close but far apart
You brought along the lawyer and I brought a broken heart The judge pronounced the words the way you wanted him to do You changed your name from Brown to Jones and mine from Brown to Blue I couldn't help my tears from falling on the courtroom floor My love, they took away my right to love you anymore My world just seemed to stop as I stood there so close to you You changed your name from Brown to Jones and mine from Brown to Blue The judge forgot to tell me how I'd live my life alone What I would do without you after loving you so long He didn't seem to care that I'm still in love with you You changed your name from Brown to Jones and mine from Brown to Blue I couldn't help my tears from falling on the courtroom floor My love, they took away my right to love you anymore My world just seemed to stop as I stood there so close to you You changed your name from Brown to Jones and mine from Brown to Blue |

I can hardly bear the sight of lipstick
On the cigarettes there in the ashtray Lyin' cold the way you left 'em, But at least your lips caressed them While you packed Or the lip-print on a half-filled cup of coffee That you poured and didn't drink But at least you thought you wanted it, Tat's so much more than I can say for me What a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there The lawn could stand another mowin' Funny I don't even care As you turn to walk away As the door behind you closes The only thing I have to say It's been a good year for the roses After three full years of marriage, It's the first time that you haven't made the bed I guess the reason we're not talkin', Tere's so little left to say we haven't said While a million thoughts go racin' through my mind I find I haven't said a word From the bedroom the familiar sound Of a baby's cryin' goes unheard What a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there The lawn could stand another mowin' Funny I don't even care As you turn to walk away As the door behind you closes The only thing I have to say It's been a good year for the roses |

I got loaded last night on a bottle of gin
And I had a fight with my best girlfriend When I'm drinkin' I am nobody's friend So please baby wait for me until they let me out again I know the same thing has happened before And each time it happens, I hate it more & more When I'm drinkin' I am nobody's friend So please baby wait for me until they let me out again I spent a whole lotta time sittin' & thinkin' Sittin' & just thinkin' 'bout you If I didn't spend so much time sittin' & drinkin' We'd still have the love I thought we knew I won't promise the same thing won't happen again But I can promise, it'll be a long, long time till then 'Cause when I'm drinkin' I am nobody's friend So please baby wait for me until they let me out again |

Up above me are the skies
Like the twinkle in your eyes Blue must be the colour of the blues In the mail, the letters came But you can't pay for love the same Blue must be the colour of the blues The bluebird singin' in the trees Seems to sympathize with me 'Cause he's not singin' like he used to do Pretty waters in the sea Feel as cold as you left me Blue must be the colour of the blues Blue days come and blue days go The way I feel, nobody knows Life is finally empty without you There's a blue note in each song That I sing since you've been gone Blue must be the colour of the blues |

I can tell somewhere there's someone you love more than me
Someone you love more than me And it hurts to say it that you have a right to be free I know that's the way it should be Oh but I'm too far gone Too far gone I know I've loved you too much for too long And I'm too far gone If ever your new love should hurt you or make you feel blue Hurt you or make you feel blue Just remember your old love will still be around loving you I'll be around loving you Oh 'cause I'm too far gone Too far gone I know I've loved you too much for too long And I'm too far gone |

Darling, there is one thing I must tell you, you must know
It's so hard to say the words I feel This fancy that I'm on's been going on too long It's time to stop pretending things are real 'Cause I've been living deep in sin, I've been living blind And I just don't know what's right or wrong To take a chance on losing you is such a silly thing to do A chance I might wake up and find you gone Blue, so blue, my love is burning blue Any private flame could be a lie Blue, so blue, my love still burns for you But I know I'll only make you cry A thief can only steal from you He cannot break your heart He can never touch the precious things inside Someone like you should surely be Miles and miles away from me Then you'd never care how much I lied So try to understand the pain It takes so long when I explain Please don't you forget how much I lied How much I lied |

I got the picture that you gave to me
And it's signed with love, just like it used to be The only thing different, the only thing new I got the picture, he's got you I got the records that we used to share And they still sound the same, as when you were here The only thing different, the only thing new I got the records, he's got you I got your memory, or has it got me? I really don't know, but I know it won't let me be I got your class ring that proves you care And it still looks the same as when you gave it dear The only thing different, the only thing new I got these little things, he's got you I got your memory, or has it got me? I really don't know, but I know it won't let me be I got the picture that you gave to me And it's signed with love, just like it used to be The only thing different, the only thing new I got these little things, he's got you |

Everybody knows where you go when the sun goes down
They say you only live to see the lights of town I wasted my time when I would try, try, try 'Cause when the lights have lost their glow, you'll cry, cry, cry Soon your sugar-daddies will all be gone And you'll wake up some cold day and find you're alone You'll come to me but I'm gonna tell you bye, bye, bye When I turn around and walk away, you'll cry, cry, cry You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll cry alone When everyone's forgotten and you're on your own You're gonna cry, cry, cry I lie awake at night and wait till you come in You stay a little while and then you're gone again Every question that I ask, I get a lie, lie, lie For every lie you tell, you're gonna cry, cry, cry When your fickle little love gets old, no one will care for you You'll come back to me for a little love that's true I'll tell you no and you're gonna ask me why, why, why When I remind you of all of this, you'll cry, cry, cry You're gonna cry, cry, cry and you'll want me there It'll hurt when you think of the fool you've been You're gonna cry, cry, cry |

Don't wait for the telephone if you want a call from me
There won't be anymore, there won't be anymore And don't wait for the mailman if you want a letter from me There won't be anymore, there won't be anymore All the love we had until you turn back And it broke my lovin' heart in two When you're heart is breakin' and you want some lovin' from me There won't be anymore, it won't be like before It won't be like before, there just won't be anymore All the love we had until you turn back And it broke my lovin' heart in two When you're heart is breakin' and you want some lovin' from me There won't be anymore, it won't be like before It won't be like before, there just won't be anymore |

Who do you see when you turn your eyes down?
Who do you see when I'm not seeing you? The news is out all over town and all these girls Are taking turns at being you Chorus: Well, well, well You'd better make up your mind Honey, are you straight or are you blind? She's coming in between us you know that she is I'm not holding on to her but one of us is My hands are in my pocket, my face is in a book She could walk 'round naked and I wouldn't sneak a look Chorus Honey are you straight or are you blind? She walked in and your eyes flew out the door You squeezed my hand 'til the circulation ceases She's just a doll like so many more She's the kind of doll that you'd like to pull to pieces Chorus Well, well, well You'd better make up your mind Honey are you straight or are you blind? |

Can Mary fry some fish, mama
I'm as hungry as can be Oh lord, how I wish, mama You could stop the baby cryin' 'Cause my head is killing me I saw my ex again last night mama She was at the dance at Miller's store She was with that Jackie White mama I killed them both And they're buried under Jacob's sycamore You think I'm psycho don't you mama I didn't mean to break your cup You think I'm psycho don't you mama You better let 'em lock me up Oh, don't hand me Johnny's pup mama As I might squeeze him too tight I'm havin' crazy dreams again mama So let me tell you 'bout last night I woke up in Johnny's room mama Standing right there by his bed With my hands around his throat mama Wishing both of us were dead You think I'm psycho don't you mama I just killed Johnny's pup You think I'm psycho don't you mama You'd better let 'em lock me up Oh you recall that little girl mama I believe her name was Betty Clark Oh don't tell me that she's dead mama 'Cause I just saw her in the park We were sitting on a bench mama Thinking of a game to play Seems I was holding a wrench mama Then my mind just walked away You think I'm psycho don't you mama I didn't mean to break your cup You think I'm psycho don't you mama Mama why don't you get up? |

You tell me you married an angel
She's made heaven out of your home You say there couldn't be rainbows in heaven 'Cause she's brought you happiness that you've never known You may hate me for what I've to tell you But you'll thank me for setting you right While you work to keep angels in heaven Your angel steps out of heaven each night Her heaven's not the same as you're living in It's any place where there's music and a free drink from him So call her your angel, I won't say you're not right But your angel steps out of heaven each night |

Here I am late again for the last time
And like I promised, I just told her goodbye Please believe me 'cause this time, it's really over And darling, you know I wouldn't lie Didn't I come and tell you about her How temptation lured she and I Now I know it was only fascination And darling, you know I wouldn't lie I had to let her down easy as slow as I could After all, she's got feelings too But it took a little longer than I thought it would But this time, she knows we're really through She wanted to hold me forever And this lipstick shows her final try And these tears on my shoulder are proof that she failed And darling, you know I wouldn't lie |

I might say that I don't care
Hold my head up in the air Even tell my friends I'm glad that you don't call But when the day is through That's when my heartaches start anew And that's when I miss you most of all And my arms keep reaching for you And my eyes keep searching for you And my lips keep calling for you And my shoes keep walking back to you No matter how much I pretend I wish I had you back again 'Cause nothin' means half as much as you My world just seemed to die The day you said goodbye And I can't forget no matter what I do And my arms keep reaching for you And my eyes keep searching for you And my lips keep calling for you And my shoes keep walking back to you |

I know the name on the tip of your tongue
And I know that accusing look Everybody knows I've been so wrong That's the problem and here's the hook Tears before bedtime There'll be trouble tonight I don't want to talk about it anymore I don't want to have another fight I don't want to talk I don't want to fight How wrong can I be before I am right For the tears that you boo hoo hoo hoo There can be no defence You say you'll forgive and forget But it's only a pretence Either you can leave the past behind Or give me something to disconnect my mind I sleep with my fists clenched tight When I don't lie awake all night I guess time gave up the ghost too late And the balance of our love Very soon turns to hate Darling your suspiciousness Tortures me at night But I can't excuse the cruel words That I use whenever we fight (chorus) |
