Baltimore Oriole
Took one look at that mercury, forty below No life for a lady To be draggin' her feathers around in the snow Leaving me blue, off she flew To the Tangipaho-down Louisiana Where a two-tiin' Jaybird Met the divine Miss O I'd like to ruffle his plumage That Baltimore Oriole Messed around with that big guy Till he singed her wings Forgivin' is easy - it's a woman like, now and then Could happen to thing Send her back home Home ain't home without her warbling How she can sing Make a lonely man happy, Baltimore Oriole Come down from that bough Fly to your daddy now. |

I read your letter, darlin'
Tears filled my eyes All of the promises you made were nothing but lies So I turned your photograph around face to the wall And when I dim the lights in my room tonight Teardrops will fall Teardrops will fall tonight Tears I can't hide Tears that I'd rather keep Deep down inside Tears fall And love is gone beyond these walls And when I dim the lights in my room tonight Teardrops will fall I'm gonna pray tonight, baby Hopin' you will hear And maybe you'll write all those wrongs And dry each tear I sit alone tonight Hopin' you will call And when I dim the lights in my room tonight Teardrops will fall Teardrops will fall tonight Tears I can't hide Tears that I'd rather keep Deep down inside Tears fall And love is gone beyond these walls And when I dim the lights in my room tonight Teardrops will fall Teardrops will fall tonight Tears I can't hide Tears that I'd rather keep Deep down inside Tears fall And love is gone beyond these walls And when I dim the lights in my room tonight When I dim the lights in my room tonight Teardrops will fall |

Now There's a man you'll hear about
Most anywhere you go, And his holdings are in Texas And his name is Diamond Joe. And he carries all his money In a diamond-studded jar. He never took much trouble With the process of the law. I hired out to Diamond Joe, boys, Did offer him my hand, He gave a string of horses So old they could not stand. And I nearly starved to death, boys, He did mistreat me so, And I never saved a dollar In the pay of Diamond Joe. Now his bread it was corn dodger And his meat you couldn't chaw, Nearly drove me crazy With the waggin' of his jaw. And the tellin' of his story, Mean to let you know That there never was a rounder That could lie like Diamond Joe. Now, I tried three times to quit him, But he did argue so I'm still punchin' cattle In the pay of Diamond Joe. And when I'm called up yonder And it's my time to go, Give my blankets to my buddies Give the fleas to Diamond Joe. |

Why does the sun go on shining
Why does the sea rush to shore Don't they know it's the end of the world 'Cause you don't love me any more Why do the birds go on singing Why do the stars glow above Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when I lost your love I wake up in the morning and I wonder Why everything's the same as it was I can't understand, no, I can't understand How life goes on the way it does Why does my heart go on beating Why do these eyes of mine cry Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when you said goodbye Why does my heart go on beating Why do these eyes of mine cry Don't they know it's the end of the world It ended when you said goodbye |
