1. _ Funny How Time Slips Away
(words & music by willy nelson)
Well hello there,
My it's been a long long time
How am i doin',
Oh well i guess i'm doin' fine
It's been so long now and it seems that
It was only yesterday
Mmm, ain't it funny how time slips away
How's your new love,
I hope that he's doin' fine
Heard you told him, yes baby
That you'd love him till the end of time
Well you know, that's the same thing
That you told me
Well it seems like just the other day
Mmm, ain't it funny how time slips away
Gotta go now,
Guess i'll see you hanging round
Don't know when though, oh
Never know when i'll be back in town
But i remember what i told you
That in time your gonna pay
Well ain't it surprisin' how time slips away
Yeah, ain't it surprisin' how time slips away

2. _ Love Me
(words & music jerry leiber - mike stoller)
Treat me like a fool,
Treat me mean and cruel,
But love me.
Wring my faithful heart,
Tear it all apart,
But love me.
If you ever go,
Darling, i'll be oh so lonely
I'll be sad and blue,
Crying over you, dear only.
I would beg and steal
Just to feel your heart
Beatin' close to mine
Well, if you ever go,
Darling, i'll be oh so lonely
I'll be sad and blue,
Crying over you, dear only.
I would beg and steal
Just to feel your heart
Beatin' close to mine

Darling, i'll be oh so lonely
Beggin' on knees,
All i ask is please, please love me
Oh yeah

(words & music by jerry leiber - mike stoller)
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time.
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time.
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine.
When they said you was high classed,
Well, that was just a lie.
When they said you was high classed,
Well, that was just a lie.

And you ain't no friend of mine.

5. _ Proud Mary
(words & music by john fogerty)
Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day
Haven't ever lost one minute of sleeping
Worried about the way things might have been
Been a lot of places down in memphis
I umped a lot of babes down in new orleans
Had a lot of shots at good times in the city
Till i hitched a ride on a river bout queen
A big wheel keeps on turnin'
Proud mary keeps on burnin', rollin', rollin'
Rollin' on a river
Rollin, rollin, rollin on a river
If you come down to the river
I betcha you're gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry
'cause you have no money
People along the river are happy to give
I said a big wheel keeps on turnin'
Proud mary keeps on burnin', rollin', rollin'
Rollin' on a river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river

6. _ Teddy Bear
(words & music by mann-low)
Baby let me be,
Your lovin' teddy bear
Put a chain around my neck,
And lead me anywhere
Oh let me be
Your teddy bear.
I don't wanna be a tiger
Cause tigers play too rough
I don't wanna be a lion
'cause lions ain't the kind
You love enough.
Just wanna be, your teddy bear
Put a chain around my neck
And lead me anywhere
Oh let me be
Your teddy bear.
Baby let me be, around you every night
Run your fingers through my hair,
And cuddle me real tight

7. _ You Don't Have To Say You Love Me
(words & music by wickham - napier - bell - donaggio - pallavicini)
When i said, i needed you
You said you would always stay
It wasn't me who changed, but you
And know you've gone away
Don't you know that now you're gone
And i'm left her on my own
Then i have to follow you
And beg you to come home
You don't have to say you love me
Just be close at hand
You don't have to stay forever
I will understand
Believe me, believe me
I can't help i love you
But believe me, i'll never tie you down
Left alone with just a memory
Life seems dead and so unreal
All that's left is loneliness
There's nothing left to feel

8. _ Can't Help Falling In Love
(words & music by george weiss - hugo peretti - luigi creatore)
Wise men say only fools rush in
But i can't help falling in love with you
Shall i stay
Would it be a sin
If i can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For i can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For i can't help falling in love with you
For i can't help falling in love with you

9. _ Impossible Dream (the Quest)
(mitch leigh/joe darion)
To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afat
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest to follow that star
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far
To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march
Into hell for a heavenly cause
And i know if i'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When i'm laid to my rest
And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star
The fight the unbeatable foe
To dream the impossible dream
And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star
To fight the unbeatable foe
To dream the impossible dream

10. _ Heartbreak Hotel
(words & music by mae b. axton - tommy durden - elvis presley)
Well, since my baby left me,
I found a new place to dwell.
It's down at the end of lonely street
At heartbreak hotel.
You make me so lonely baby,
I get so lonely,
I get so lonely i could die.
And although it's always crowded,
You still can find some room.
Where broken hearted lovers
Do cry away their gloom.
You make me so lonely baby,
I get so lonely,
I get so lonely i could die.
Well, the bell hop's tears keep flowin',
And the desk clerk's dressed in black.
Well they been so long on lonely street
They ain't ever gonna look back.
You make me so lonely baby,
I get so lonely,
I get so lonely i could die.
Hey now, if your baby leaves you,
And you got a tale to tell.
Just take a walk down lonely street
To heartbreak hotel.

(words & music by otis blackwell - elvis presley)
You know i can be found,
Sitting home all alone,
If you can't come around,
At least please telephone.
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
Baby, if i made you mad
For something i might have said,
Please, let's forget the past,
The future looks bright ahead,
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
I don't want no other love,
Baby it's just you i'm thinking of.
Don't stop thinking of me,
Don't make me feel this way,
Come on over here and love me,
You know what i want you to say.
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
Why should we be apart?
I really love you baby, cross my heart.
Let's walk up to the preacher
And let us say i do,
Then you'll know you'll have me,
And i'll know that i'll have you,
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
I don't want no other love,
Baby it's just you i'm thinking of.
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.

13. _ Suspicious Minds
(words & music by mark james)
We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because i love you too much baby
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word i say?
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
So, if an old friend i know
Drops by to say hello
Would i still see suspicion in your eyes?
Here we go again
Asking where i've been
You can't see these tears are real
I'm crying
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And be can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
Oh let our love survive
Or dry the tears from your eyes
Let's don't let a good thing die
When honey, you know
I've never lied to you
Mmm yeah, yeah

14. _ For The Good Times
(words & music by kris kristofferson)
Don't look so sad, i know it's over
But life goes on and this old world will keep on turning
Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together
There's no need o watch the bridges that we're burning
Lay your head upon my pillow
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops fallin' soft against the window
And make believe you love me one more time
For the good times
I'll get along, you'll find another
And i'll be here if you should find you ever need me
Don't say a word about tomorrow or forever
There'll be time enough for sadness when you leave me
Lay your head upon my pillow
Hold your warm and tender body close to mine
Hear the whisper of the raindrops fallin' soft against the window
And make believe you love me one more time
For the good times
For the good times

(words & music by hoyt axton)
Well i've never been to spain
But i kinda like the music
Say the ladies are insane there
And they sure know how to use it
They don't abuse it
Never gonna loose it
I can't refuse it
Well, i've never been to england
But i kind of like the beatles
So i headed for las vegas
Only made it out to needles
Can you feel it
Must be weary
Oh so good... oh feel so good
Well i've never been to heaven
But i've been in oklahoma
Well, they tell me i was born there
But i really don't remember
In oklahoma or arizona
What does it matter
What does it matter

16. _ I Can't Stop Loving You
(words & music by don gibson)
I can't stop loving you
So i've made up my mind
To live in memory
Of such an old lonesome time
I can't stop wanting you
It's useless to say
So i'll just live my life
In dreams of yesterday.
Those happy hours
That we once knew
Though long ago,
They still make me blue
They say that time
Heals a broken heart
But time has stood still
Since we've been apart

17. _ You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'
(words & music by mann - weil)
You never close your eyes
Anymore when i kiss your lips
There's no tenderness
Like before in you fingertips
You're trying hard not to show it,
But baby, baby i know it
You've lost that lovin' feelin', oh that lovin' feelin'
You've lost that lovin' feelin', now it's gone, gone, gone
There's no tenderness in your eyes
When i reach out for you
Girl, you're starting to criticize
Every little thing i do
It makes me just feel like crying
'cause baby, something beautiful's dying
You've lost that lovin' feelin', oh that lovin' feelin'
You've lost that lovin' feelin', now it's gone, gone, gone
Baby, baby, i get down on my knees for you
If you would only love me like you used to do
We had a love, love, love, love affair every day
Oh don't, don't, don't, don't take it away
Listen to me, talkin' to you
Bring back that lovin' feelin, oh, that lovin' feelin'
Bring back that lovin' feelin, now it's gone, gone, gone
And i can't go on

18. _ Polk Salad Annie
(words & music by tony joe white)
Some of you all never been down south too much...
I' gonna tell you a little story, so you'll understand where i'm talking about
Down there we have a plant that grows out in the woods and the fields,
And it looks something like a turnip green.
Everybody calls it polk salad. now that's polk salad.
Used to know a girl that lived down there and
She'd go out in the evenings to pick a mess of it...
Carry it home and cook it for supper, 'cause that's about all they had to eat,
But they did all right.
Down in louisiana
Where the alligators grow so mean
Lived a girl that i swear to the world
Made the alligators look tame
Polk salad annie
'gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
For the mama was working on the chain-gang
What a mean, vicious woman
Everyday before suppertime
She'd go down by the truck patch
And pick her a mess of polk salad
And carry it home in a tote sack
Polk salad annie
'gators got you granny
Everybody said it was a shame
'cause the mama was working on the chain-gang
Whoo, how wretched, dispiteful, straight-razor totin' woman,
Lord have mercy.
Sock a little polk salad to him
Yeah, you know what, yeah, yeah
But daddy was a lazy and a no-count
Claimed he had a bad back
All her brothers were fit for
Was stealing watermelons out of my truck
For once polk salad annie
'gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
For the mama was working on the chain-gang
Sock a little polk salad to him
You know what meets a meal mention
You sock a little
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, yeah
Chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon
Chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon
Sock a little polk salad to him
You know what meets a meal mention
Sock a little polk salad to him
You know what meets a meal mention

(words & music by newbury)
Oh i wish i was in the land of cotton
Old things they are not forgotten
Look away, look away, look away dixieland
Oh i wish i was in dixie, away, away

But all my trials, lord will soon be over
