2. _ 16 Tons
Some people say a man is made outta mud
A poor man's made outta muscle and blood
Muscle and blood, skin and bones
A mind that's a-weak and a back that's strong
You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shine
I picked up my shovel and I walked to the mine
I loaded sixteen tons of number nine coal
And the straw boss said "Well, a-bless my soul"
You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store
If you see me comin', better step aside
A lotta men didn't, a lotta men died
One fist of iron, the other of steel
If the right one don't a-get you
Then the left one will
You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go
I owe my soul to the company store

3. _ Blue
Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me
Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Tears fill my eyes till I can't see
Three o'clock in the morning
Here am I
Sittin' here so lonely
So lonesome I could cry
Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me
Now that it's over
I realized
Those weak words you whispered were nothin' but lies
Blue oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me
Why can't you be blue over me

4. _ Swingin'
There's a little boy, in our neighborhood.
His name is Charlie Jackson, and he's really lookin' good.
I had to go and see him, so I called him on the phone.
I walked over to his house, and this was goin' on.
His brother was on the sofa, eatin' chocolate pie.
His Momma was in the kitchen, cuttin' chicken up to fry.
His Daddy was in the backyard, rollin' up a garden hose.
I was on the porch with Charlie, feelin' love down to my toes.
And we were swingin' (swingin')
Aw, yeah now we were swingin' (swingin')
Little Charlie he's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on his front porch in this swing,
Just a swingin' (swingin')
Yeah, and we'll be swingin'. (swingin')
Yes, we'll be swingin'. (swingin')
Little Charlie he's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on his front porch in this swing,
Just a swingin' (swingin')
Now Charlieshe's a darlin', she's the apple of my eye.
When I'm on the swing with him, it makes me almost high.
And Charlie is my lover, and he has been since the spring.
I just can't believe it started on his front porch in this swing.
Just a swingin'. (swingin')
Ah-just a swingin'. (swingin')
Little Charlie he's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on his front porch in this swing,
Just a swingin' (swingin')
I said Little Charlie he's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on his front porch in this swing,
Just a swingin' (swingin') (swingin')

6. _ When I Call Your Name
I rushed home from work like I always do
I spent my whole day just thinking of you
When I walked through the front door my whole life was changed
'Cause nobody answered when I called your name
Oh the lonely sound of my voice calling
Is driving me insane
And just like rain the tears keep falling
Nobody answers when I call your name
A note on the table that told me goodbye
It said you'd grown weary of living a lie
Your love has ended but mine still remains
But nobody answers when I call your name
Oh the lonely sound of my voice calling
Is driving me insane
And just like rain the tears keep falling
Nobody answers when I call your name
Oh the lonely sound of my voice calling
Is driving me insane (is driving me crazy)
And just like rain the tears keep falling
Nobody answers when I call, when I call your name

8. _ I Can't Be Myself
It's a way of mine to say just what I'm thinking
And to do the things I really want to do
And you want to change the part of me I'm proud of
So I can't be myself, when I'm with you
Oh, you never liked the clothes I wear on Sunday
Just because I don't believe the way you do
But I believe the Lord knows I'm unhappy
And I can't be myself when I'm with you
I can't be myself and be what pleases you
Deep down inside I don't believe that you want me to
And it's not my way to take so long deciding
That I can't be myself when I'm with you
I can't be myself and be what pleases you
Deep down inside I don't believe that you want me to
And I believe the Lord knows I'm unhappy
And I can't be myself when I'm with you
And I can't be myself when I'm with you

9. _ The Only Mama That'll Walk The Line
Well everybody knows you been steppin' on my toes
And I'm gettin' pretty tired of it
You keep a steppin' out of line and a messing with my mind
If you had any sense you'd quit
'Cause ever since I was a little teeny weeny girl
I said you were the only man in my whole world
Now you'd better do some thinkin' then you'll find
You got the only mama that'll walk the line
I keep a-workin' every day all you wanna do is play
I'm gettin' tired of staying home all night
Well I'm a-coming unglued from your funny little moods
Now honey baby that ain't right
'Cause ever since I was a little teeny weeny girl
I said you were the only man in my whole world
And now you'd better do some thinkin' then you'll find
You got the only mama that'll walk the line
You keep a-packin' on my clothes
Nearly everybody knows that you're still just a-puttin' me on
And when I start a-walkin' gonna hear you start a-squawkin'
And a-beggin' me to come back home
'Cause ever since I was a little teeny weeny girl
I said you were the only man in my whole world
Now you'd better do some thinkin' then you'll find
You got the only mama that'll walk the line
You got the only mama that'll walk the line

10. _ Help Me Make It Through The Night
Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it loose and let it fall
Playing soft against your skin
Like the shadows on the wall
Come and lay down by my side
Till the early morning light
All I'm taking is your time
Help me make it through the night
I don't care if it's right or wrong
I don't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
'Cause tonight I need a friend
Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
And it's sad to be alone
Help me make it through the night
Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
I don't wanna be alone
Help me make it through the night
I don't wanna be alone
Help me make it through the night

11. _ He Stopped Loving Her Today
He said I'll love you 'til I die
She told him you'll forget in time
As the years went slowly by
She still preyed upon his mind
He kept her picture on his wall
Went half crazy now and then
He still loved her through it all
Hoping she'd come back again
Kept some letters by his bed
Dated 1962
He had underlined in red
Every single I love you
I went to see him just today
Oh but I didn't see no tears
All dressed up to go away
First time I'd seen him smile in years
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
You know she came to see him one last time
Oh and we all wondered if she would
And it kept running through my mind
This time he's over her for good
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today

12. _ 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
Couldn't drink enough to keep you off my mind
Tonight the bottle let me down
And 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 an old familiar way
Tonight the bottle let me down
and 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

13. _ Rose Colored Glasses
I don't know why I keep on believing you need me
When you've proved so many times that it ain't true
And I can't find one good reason for staying
Maybe by leaving would be the best for you
But these rose colored glasses
That I'm looking through
Show only the beauty
'Cause they hide all the truth
And they let me hold on to the good times, the good lines
The ones I used to hear when I held you
And they keep me from feeling so cheated, defeated
When reflections in your eyes show me a fool
These rose colored glasses
That I'm looking through
Show only the beauty
'Cause they hide all the truth
So I just keep on hopin', believing
That maybe by counting the many times, I've tried
You'll believe me when I say, I love you
And I'll lay these rose colored glasses aside

14. _ A Good Hearted Woman
A long time forgotten the dreams that just fell by the way
The good life he promised ain't what she's livin' today
But she never complains of the bad time or the bad things he's done
She just talks about the good times they've had and all the good times to come
Yeah she's a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
She loves him in spite of his wicked ways she don't understand
With teardrops and laughter they pass through this world hand in hand
She's a good hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man
He likes the bright lights and night life and good time friends
When the party's all over she'll welcome him back home again
Lord knows she don't understand him but she does the best that she can
She's a good hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man
I'm a good hearted woman in love with a good timin' man
And I love him in spite of his wicked ways I never understand
With teardrops and laughter we pass through this world hand in hand
I'm a good hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man
With teardrops and laughter we pass through this world hand in hand
I'm a good hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man
I'm just a good hearted woman lovin' a good timin' man
