Well I knew a man named Campbell he'd cheat and steal and gamble
And I guess he tried most everything lowdown He was out tomcattin' last night when he got in a great big fight And then a big policeman came and slapped him down He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now) He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now) Well I told him once or twice to quit drinkin' gin and shootin' dice He's in the jailhouse now Well when I met Bill's old gal Saddie and she said (have you seen my baby) And I told her he was downtown in the can Well old Saddie she started fussin' she went down to the jailhouse a cussin' She said I come down here to get my man She's in the jailhouse now (she's in the jailhouse now) She's in the jailhouse now (she's in the jailhouse now) So you can understand how little old Saddie got throwed in the can She's in the jailhouse now Well old Bill broke out one day I guess he thought he get away But at the railway station they took him by the arm The chief said I've come for you and Bill said (now this won't do) Because Bill Campbell never was my name He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now) He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now) Well old Bill he broke out and all over town the fool walked about He's in the jailhouse now He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now) Well I told him once or twice to quit drinkin' gin and shootin' dice He's in the jailhouse now |

He wasn't prepared for a daughter
He thought how nice a son would have been But she had her way with her father When she smiled at him. Years ago he stopped trying to change her He knew that he just couldn't win She'd come home with stray dogs and strangers And he'd have to let 'em in, when she smiled at him. Now those old memories linger In his mind she's still only ten And he's still wrapped round her finger Like the first time, when she smiled at him. When he gave her away at the wedding He paused for a moment and then He whispered I think now I'm ready When she smiled at him. Now as the years fade into each other He may forget some things now and then But her face now so much like her mother's Carries him back again, to when she smiled at him. Now those old memories linger In his mind she's still only ten And he's still wrapped round her finger Like the first time, when she smiled at him. And he's still wrapped round her finger Like the first time when she smiled at him... |

Forget about it, I'm admittin' I was wrong
So, I'll just take my old guitar and walk out the door Forget about it, I'll be gone And you'll have memories you'll find hard to ignore. 'Cause after all I'll see you sometimes maybe When I can't recall how you drove me crazy Forget about it, when forever's over I won't remember how much I love you anymore. Forget about it, put me out of your head Now that you're free and easy out there on the town Forget about it, when you're lying in your bed Just wishing I was there to lay my body down. 'Cause after all I'll see you sometimes, baby When you will recall how I drove you crazy Forget about those starlit nights Laying by the fireside holding tight. I can't remember when it felt so right So just forget about it. Forget about it, if you see me On the street don't wave don't wink Don't try to tease me with your smile Forget about it if we chance to meet somewhere Don't think it's 'cause I'm tryin' to reconcile. 'Cause after all I'll see you sometimes, baby When I can't recall how you drove me crazy Forget about those starlit nights. Forget about those starlit nights. Forget about it... |

It began, I believe when Adam found Eve
He woke up and made her his wife On that very first day she asked in dismay Am I the first girl in your life. Wives don't like old girlfriends You know that's a fact of life Wives don't like old girlfriends And girlfriends don't like old wives. Now, if you don't lie I'll bet every guy Has an old flame that he thinks about Wives pretend not to care but to her it's as clear as if you were thinking out loud. Wives don't like old girlfriends You know that's a fact of life Wives don't like old girlfriends And girlfriends don't like old wives. Oh, it's an awful sad affair And though it's not goin' anywhere. Wives don't like old girlfriends You know that's a fact of life Wives don't like old girlfriends And girlfriends don't like old wives. You know that's a fact of life And girlfriends don't like You know they don't like 'em And girlfriends don't like old wives... |

What have I got to do to make you love me
What have I got to do to make you care What do I do when lightning strikes me And I wake to find that you're not there. What have I got to do to make you want me What have I got to do to be heard What do I say when it's all over Sorry, seems to be the hardest word. It's sad, so sad, it's a sad, sad situation And it's gettin' more and more absurd It's sad, so sad, why can't we talk it over Always seems to me Sorry, seems to be the hardest word. It's sad, so sad, it's a sad, sad situation And it's gettin' more and more absurd It's sad, so sad, why can't we talk it over Always seems to me Sorry, seems to be the hardest word. What have I got to do to make you love me Oh, what have I got to do to be heard What do I do when lightning strikes me What have I got to do? What have I got to do Sorry, seems to be the hardest word... |

We painted a beautiful scene
With brown eyes and emerald green The balck of the night and the silver moonlight on you and me But the tears that we're crying each day Had bled all the colors away now all I can see. Is two shades of blue (now it's over and it's) Poor me and you (all alone and wondering) What will we do (now our love is turning) Two shades of blue. In our kaleidoscope dream we could have had everything If only our lives would have started the night when we first met But reality pulled us apart now we're dancing Alone in the dark what a sad silhouette. Is two shades of blue (now it's over and it's) Poor me and you (all alone and wondering) What will we do (now our love is turning) Two shades of blue. But the tears that we're crying Each day had bled all the colors away Now all I can see is. Two shades of blue (now it's over and it's) Poor me and you (all alone and wondering) What will we do (now our love is turning) Two shades of blue... |

Put those guitars in their cases
Put those cases on the truck Drive that truck on to Memphis Tune those guitars back up. What we really love is playin' Rollin' never slowin' down But tonight I feel like stayin' I kind of like this little town. And I'm not ready to pack it up yet If you don't have to go Let's make this a night we'll never forget There's time for one more one more for the road. Tonight the lights feel like heaven Makes me want to give it all I got That's what I do for a livin' Am I lucky or what. And I'm not ready to pack it up yet If you don't have to go Let's make this a night we'll never forget There's time for one more one more for the road. What we really love is playin' Rollin' never slowin' down But tonight I feel like stayin' I kind of like this little town. And I'm not ready to pack it up yet If you don't have to go I'd like to stay here and pick one with Chet There's time for one more, one more for the road. |

Out my door the leaves are falling
A cold wild wind will come Sweethearts walk by together And I still miss someone. I go out to a party To look for a little fun But I find a darkened corner 'Cause I still miss someone. Though I never got over those blue eyes I see them everywehere I miss those arms that held me When all the love was there. I wonder if he's sorry For leaving what we had begun There's someone for me somewhere And I still miss someone. Though I never got over those blue eyes I see them everywehere I miss those arms that held me When all the love was there. And I wonder if he's sorry For leaving what we had begun There's someone for me somewhere And I still miss someone... |

A diamond is so hard to find
You keep searching patiently You take a stone and make it shine And somehow you bring out the best in me. I count on you to lift me up And sometimes take me down a peg With a word or just a touch Somehow you bring out the best in me. I'm gonna run until I go to distance 'Cause you believe I will And if I stumble baby what's the difference You're standin' by me, still. When there's a path in front of me But I can't find it for the trees I look at you and clearly see Somehow you bring out the best in me. I'm gonna run until I go to distance 'Cause you believe I will And if I stumble baby what's the difference You're standin' by me, still. When there's a path in front of me But I can't find it for the trees I look at you and clearly see Somehow you bring out the best. I look at you and clearly see Somehow you bring out the best in me... |

You've been knocked down, you've been dragged out
You've been misled and left for dead in the shadow of doubt Over your shoulder is your only view And all I can say, is don't let yesterday get the best of you. This is the beginning, this is not the end This is not the time to be lyin' down and finally givin' in This world keeps spinning around and again And this is the beginning this is not the end. Runnin' leaves you breathless, standin' makes you swoon Fightin' leaves you layin' down And stayin' down and prayin' it's all over soon Who knows what's waiting further on up the track One thing I know is there ain't no road gonna take you back. Cause this is the beginning, this is not the end This is not the time to be lyin' down and finally givin' in This world keeps spinning around and again And this is the beginning this is not the end. One day you're flyin', next day you crawl Next day you don't know why You can only fly so high till you begin to fall But sooner or later, you'll go it alone There's only one job and there's Nobody's problems to solve but your own. Cause this is the beginning, this is not the end This is not the time to be lyin' down and finally givin' in This world keeps spinning around and again And this is the beginning this is not the end. No, this is not the end yeah... |
