----------------------------------------------------------------------------
When you know you're lonely
You're not the one and only
#01)
But when you discover that your life is dreary
Don't you come a-knockin' on my door
Why, I'll be all dolled up and singin' that song that says
You dog, I told you so
#02)
Last night I was blind
But today I see
I did you wrong
#03)
I wonder why nobody don't like me
Or is it the fact that I'm ugly?
#04)
You've grown tired
And now you say we're through
#05)
I lived my life and shunned the naked light of day
And only now I see the years ran away
#06)
Hip! She tells me to jump and I jump
(Jump Jump!) Ho! She tells me to dance and I dance
Gotta listen or get no kissin'
#07)
Do you remember me, Baby
Like I remember you
You used to laugh at me
And holler, "Who who who"
#08)
I stood on this corner
Waiting for you to come along
So my heart could feel satisfied
#09)
I can't help it if that doggoned moon above
Makes me need someone like you to love
#10)
When my bankroll is getting small
I think of when I had none at all
And I fall asleep
#11)
And night after night
As strange as it seems
The sound of her laughter
Will sing in your dreams
#12)
I gave that notion up the day
A lumberjack came in, and it wasn't to pray
#13)
I couldn't sleep at all last night
Just a-thinking of you
#14)
It's starrin' me and my sweet dream
'Cause she's the one makes me feel this way
#15)
I warned her of the dangers
Don't speak to strangers
Did by chance
She find new romance
#16)
Crowded streets, busy feet hustle by him
Downtown shoppers, Christmas is nigh
#17)
When the world outside my house is pulling us apart
Press your lips to mine and hold me with your heart
#18)
How come every time I'm with her
She whispers so soft and low
It makes me want to jump and holler
And bump my head into a door
#19)
Heal the sick, raise the dead
Make the little girls talk out of their heads
#20)
Here's a chance to change your mind
'Cause I'll be gone a long long time
#21)
Every time I call on you
It seems it's positively true
That you've been out with someone I once knew
#22)
Tonight I'll sing my songs again
And I'll play the game and pretend
#23)
He says her lips are warm
Each time they kiss goodnight
And just as sweet as any lips can be
#24)
Think of me
When you're away
Call me darling
Just once a day
#25)
------------
Tie-Breakers
-------------
Well, sometimes, I might get drunk
Walk like a duck and smell like a skunk
#T1)
I don't know why my heart flips
I only know it does
I wonder why I love you, Baby
I guess it's just because
#T2)
