1. Inherit The Wind
(Eddie Rabbitt)

Baby a-don't fall in love with me
I'll only bring you grief
Baby, don't set your heart on me
I'll only have to leave

'Cos the north wind flows through my veins
Like my dad there's a dream in my brain
In the morning I'll have to leave again
That's how it is when you inherit the wind (Inherit the wind)
Inherit the wind

Daddy, he was a wanderinging man
I hardly knew his face
Momma, she cried for him at night
He never stayed in one place

I can't give you the love you need
I just won't be here that long
But if you still want me here tonight
I'll love you till the break of dawn



2. This Is The Story
(Arnold / Morrow / Martin)

I play the song, it was once our own
Your photograph's by my side
I know I can't forget you
So I don't even try

The note you left is in my hand
I read again what you say
You're sorry but you love him
And you've both gone away

This is the story of a man
Whose world has fallen apart
And it's the story
That is breaking my heart

An open fire, my favourite chair
I get a book from the shelf
But the words I am reading
Could apply to myself

It's the story that is breaking my heart
Yes, it's the story that is breaking my heart



3. Stranger in my own home town
(Percy Mayfield)

I'm like a stranger
Like a stranger in my own home town
I'm like a stranger
Like a stranger in my own home town

My so called friends stopped being friendly
Ah but you can't keep a good man down
No, can't keep him down

I came home with good intentions
About 5 or 6 years ago
I came home with good intentions
About 5 or 6 years ago

Oh, my home town won't accept me
I just don't feel welcome here no more

My home town won't accept me
Just don't feel welcome here no more

I came home with good intentions
About 5 or 6 years ago, yes I did
I came home with good intentions
About 5 or 6 years ago
But my home town won't accept me
Just don't feel welcome here no more
I'm like a stranger, like a stranger in my own home town
Yeh, I'm like a stranger, like a stranger in my own home town
My so called friends stopped being friendly
Ah but you can't keep a good man down
All you friends out there, yeah, yeah
Ah da da da ..........
My so called friends stopped being friendly

I came home with good intentions
About 5 or 6 years ago, yes I did
I came home with good intentions
About 5 or 6 years ago
My so called friends stopped being friendly
Oh but you can't keep a good man down

I'm like a stranger, like a stranger in my own home town
I'm like a stranger, like a stranger in my own home town
My so called friends stopped being friendly
Oh but you can't keep a good man down

(I'm going back down down to Memphis
I'm gonna start driving them trucks again)



4. A Little Bit Of Green
(Arnold / Morrow / Martin)

Now that the truth is hard to face
I can't forget you once were mine
Now someone else is in my place
Whenever we meet my heart beats out of time

Just a little bit of green
Clouds my eyes to what I've seen
Just a little bit of green
When I see you with someone new
And knowing that there's nothing I can do

Please don't try to tie me down
Those are the words you often say
I can't help seeing you around
You smile with surprise, I turn my eyes away

Just a little bit of green
Wow-oh-ho, clouds my eyes to what I've seen
Just a little bit of green
When I see you with someone new
And knowing that there's nothing I can do

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Just a little bit of green



5. And The Grass Won't Pay No Mind
(Neil Diamond)

Listen easy, you can hear God calling
Walking barefoot by the stream
Come on to me, Your hair's softly falling
On my face as in a dream
And the time will be our time
And the grass won't pay no mind

Saying nothing, lying where the sun is
Baking down upon our sides
My lips touch you, with their soft wet kisses
Your hands gentle in reply
And the time will be our time
And the grass won't pay no mind

Child, touch my soul with your cries
And the music will know what we've found
I, hear a hundred good-byes
But today I hear only one sound
The moment we're living is now
Now now now now now now now

Young bird flying, and a soft wind blowing
Cools the sweat inside my palms
Close my eyes, hear the flowers growing
As you lay sleeping in my arms
And the time will be our time
And the grass won't pay no mind
No the grass won't pay no mind



6. Do You Know Who I Am ?
(Russell)

Ah, Do you know who I am
Have you have any idea who I am ?
Yes it's been quite a while
And it's so good to see you again

It's so dark in this place
That I can't see your face
May we leave ? Oh I see
Does he know who I am
And what once was between you and me

Do you know how I tried
Have you any idea how I tried ?
Not to keep you inside
Do you know darling how much I cried

I remember you said
That you had to forget about me, and be free
Do you know who I am or have you forgot about me ?

Do you think there's a chance
You and I could start over anew ?
Is there a prayer you still care
Or has it just been too long and we're through ?
Well, what about you and him ?
Oh he's only a friend
Well I see there's still a chance for me

Maybe some other time, in some other place
With our love in your heart and a smile on your face
You will know who I am
When that time comes you'll know who I am
You will know who I am
When that time comes you'll know who I am, mmm
You will know who I am
When that time comes you'll know who I am



7. From A Jack To A King
(Miller)

From a Jack to a King from loneliness to a wedding ring
I've played an Ace and I won a Queen
I walked away with your heart

Ah, from a Jack to a King
With no regrets I stacked, I stacked the cards, I stacked the cards last night
And lady luck played her hand just right
You made-a me king of your heart

Ah for just a little while I thought that I might lose a game
Ah but just in time I saw that twinkle in your eye
From a Jack to a King of loneliness to a wedding, wedding, wedding ring
I played an ace and I won a Queen
You made-a me king of your heart

La la la la etc.

For just a little while I thought that I might lose a game
Ah but just in time I saw, I saw the twinkle in your eye
From a Jack to a King from loneliness to a wedding, wedding, wedding ring
I played an ace and I won a Queen
You made-a me king of your heart

(La la la la la etc.)



8. The Fair's Moving On
(Fletcher / Flett)

All the rides are over and done
It's late and no prizes are left to be won
The rides are closed, it's the end of the day
The horses are moving away
Yes the fair's moving on
And I'll soon be gone
Remember the love that we've known
Yes the fair's moving on
But I won't leave you long
It's the last time you'll be on your own

The music has ended, the carousel's still
The horses in boxes with the big ferris wheel
The canvass and glitter are safely on board
The trailers will soon hit the road

Yes the fair's moving on
And I'll soon be gone
Remember the love that we've had
Yes the fair's moving on
But I won't leave you long
I'm comin' back so please don't be sad

At dawn I'll be gone but I'll soon return
Till then the fair's moving on (fair's moving on)
Till then the fair's moving on (fair's moving on)
Till then the fair's moving on (fair's moving on)
Till then the fair's moving on



9. You'll Think Of Me
(Shuman)

I'm sorry now girl, but I must leave you
There's something deep inside my soul keeps calling me
The winter wind girl, will not deceive you
And in your cold and empty bed, you'll think of me, oh yes
You'll think of me (You'll think of me)

You've see me coming, you'll see me going
Don't ask me why, I'm just the kind needs to be free
Just like that outlaw wind keeps on a-blowin'
Yeh, and in your cold and empty bed, you'll think of me, oh yes
You'll think of me (You'll think of me)

Now I know you loved me just like I wanted
I know you followed me across that anguished sea
But baby I've got a heart that's haunted
Yeh, and in your cold and empty bed, you'll think of me, oh yes
You'll think of me (You'll think of me)

Ah but you should know girl that I'll be crying
Out on that lonely road where not a soul can see
I'll shed my tears for a love that's dying
Yeh, and in your cold and empty bed, you'll think of me, oh yes
You'll think of me (You'll think of me)

The summer sun girl will bring a stranger
And he'll be better to you than I used to be
And when he takes you into his arms girl
Well, in your warm and loving bed, you won't think of me no more
You won't think of me (You won't think of me)

Then in your warm and loving bed, you won't think of me, no, no
You won't think of me
(You won't think of me)
(You won't think of me)
(You won't think of me)



10. Without Love (There Is Nothing)
(Danny Small)

I awakened this morning, I was filled with despair
All my dreams turned to ashes and gall, oh yeah
As I looked at my life it was barren and bare
Without love I've had nothing at all

Without love I had nothing
Without love I had nothing at all
I have conquered the world
All but one thing did I have
Without love I had nothing at all

Once I had a sweetheart who loved only me
There was nothing, oh that she would not give, oh no
But I was blind to her goodness and I could not see
That a heart without love cannot live
