You ain't never been blue, no, no, no
You ain't never been blue Till you've had that mood indigo That feeling goes stealing right down to my shoes While I just sit here and sigh Go along blues I always get that mood indigo Since my baby said goodbye And in the evening when the lights are low I'm so lonely I could cry For there's nobody who cares about me I'm just a poor fool that's bluer than blue can be When I get that mood indigo I could lay me down and die You ain't been blue, no, no, no You ain't never been blue Till you've had that mood indigo That feeling goes stealing right down to my shoes While I just sit here and sigh Go along blues |

He needs me
He doesn't know it, But he needs me And so no matter where he goes, Though he doesn't care He knows that I'm there He needs me I oughta leave him, But he needs me I know that I ain't very bright Just to tag along Oh, but right or wrong I'm his... And I'm here And I'm gonna be his friend, Or his lover Cause my one ambition is To wake him and make him discover that He needs me I've got to follow where he leads me Or else he'll never know That I need him Just as he needs me |

Coots, Lewis
For all we know We may never meet again Before we go Make this moment live again We won't say goodbye Until the last minute I'll hold out my hand And my heart will be in it For all we know This might only be a dream We come and we go Like the ripples, like the ripples in the stream So baby, love me, love me tonight Tomorrow was made for some Oh, but tomorrow But tomorrow may never, never come For all we know Yes, tomorrow may never, never come For all we know |

Earl S. Burroughs
Plain gold ring on his finger he wore It was where everyone could see He belonged to someone, but not me On his hand was a plain gold band Plain gold ring has a story to tell It was one that I knew too well In my heart it will never be spring Long as he wears a plain gold ring Oh, oh When nighttime comes a' callin' on me I know why I will never be free I can't stop these teardrops of mine I'm gonna love him till the end of time Plain gold ring has but one thing to say I'll remember till my dying day In my heart it will never be spring Long as he wears a plain gold ring Plain gold ring on his finger he wore Plain gold ring on his finger he wore Plain gold ring on his finger he wore |

Old girl you're through Sit there, count your little fingers Unhappy little girl blue Sit there and count the raindrops Falling on you It's time you knew All you can ever count on Are the raindrops That fall on little girl blue Won't you just sit there Count the little raindrops Falling on you 'Cause it's time you knew All you can ever count on Are the raindrops That fall on little girl blue No use old girl You might as well surrender 'Cause your hopes are getting slender and slender Why won't somebody send a tender blue boy To cheer up little girl blue |

Jimmy Webb
Do what you gotta do Come on back see me when you can Man I can understand how it might be Kinda hard to love a girl like me I don't blame you much for wanting to be free I just wanted you to know I've loved you better that your own kin did From the very start it's my own fault What happens to my heart You see I've always known you'd go So you just do what you gotta do My wild sweet love Though it may mean that I'll never kiss Those sweet lips again Pay that no mind Find that dappled dream of yours Come on back and see me when you can Now I know it'll make you feel sad And make you feel so bad They say you don't treat me me like you should They got ways to make you feels no good I guess they got no way to know I've had my eyes wide open from the start And man you never lied to me The part of you that they'll never see Is the part you've shown to me So you just do what you gotta do My wild sweet love Though it may mean that I'll never kiss Those sweet lips again Pay that no mind Find that dappled dream of yours Come on back and see me when you can |

The other woman finds time to manicure her nails,
The other woman is perfect where her rival fails. And she's never seen with pin curls in her hair - anywhere. The other woman enchants her clothes with French perfume. The other woman keeps fresh cut flowers in each room. There are never toys scattered anywhere... And when her old man comes to call, He'll find her waiting like a lonesome queen. 'cause when she's by his side it's such a change from her old routine. But... The other woman will always cry herself to sleep. The other woman will never have his love to keep. And, as years go by... The other woman will spend her real life alone. |
