1. BLUE SUEDE SHOES

Well it's a-one for the money, two for the show
Three to get ready now go cat go
But don't you, step on my blue suede shoes
Well you can do anything but lay off a-my blue suede Shoes

Well, you can knock me down, step on my face
Slander my name all over the place
Well do anything that you wanna do
But uh uh honey lay off of my shoes
And don't you, step on my blue suede shoes
Well you can do anything but lay off a-my blue suede Shoes
Let's go cats

Ah, walk it now!

Well you can burn my house, steal my car
Drink my liquor from an old fruit jar
Well do anything that you wanna do
But uh uh honey lay off a-my shoes
And don't you, step on my blue suede shoes
Well you can do anything but lay off of my blue suede Shoes
Rock it

Well it's blue, blue, blue suede shoes
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes Yeh!
Blue, blue, blue suede shoes, baby!

Well you can do anything but lay off a-my blue suede Shoes


2. I'M COUNTING ON YOU

All the words that I'll ever know
Still could not say
How much I need you so in ev'ry way
I go wrong and you guide me
As only you can do
Hold my hand, stand beside me
I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you dear
From the dawn of each day
To always come true dear
In your kind loving way
If you knew just how deeply
I feel things you do
Then you'd know how completely
I'm counting on you
I'm counting on you dear
From the dawn of each day
To always come true, dear
In your kind loving way
If you knew just how deeply
I feel things you do
Then you'd know how completely
I'm counting on you

5. I LOVE YOU BECAUSE

I love you because you understand dear
Every single thing I try to do.
Youre always there to lend a helping hand, dear.
I love you most of all because youre you.

No matter what the world may say about me,
I know your love will always see me through.
I love you for the way you never doubt me.
But most of all I love you cause youre you.

I love you because, because my heart is ligther
Honey everytime, everytime Im walking by your side
And I love you, yes I love you because the future is a little bit brighter
And the door, the door of my happiness, you open wide

No matter what may be the style or season,
I know your heart will always be true.
I love you for a hundred thousand reasons,
But most of all I love you cause youre you.


6. JUST BECAUSE

Well, well, well,
Just because you think you're so pretty,
And just because your momma thinks you're hot,
Well, just because you think you've got something
That nobody else has got,
You've caused me to spend all my money.
You laughed and called me old Santa Claus.
Well, I'm telling you,
Baby, I'm through with you.
Because, well, well, just because.

Well, well,
There'll come a time when you'll be lonesome
And there'll come a time when you'll be blue.
Well, there'll come a time when old Santa
He won't pay your bills for you.
You caused me to lose all my women
And now, now you say we are through.
Well, I'm telling you
Baby, I was through with you
A long, long, long time ago.

Well, just because you think you're so pretty
And just because your mama thinks you're the hottest thing in town
Well, just because you think you've got something
That nobody else has got,
You caused me to spend all my money.
Honey, you laughed and called me old Santa Claus.
Well, I'm telling you, baby I'm through with you
Because, well, well, just because.

8. TRYING' TO GET TO YOU

I've been trav'lin' over mountains
Even through the valleys, too
I've been trav'lin' night and day
I've been runnin' all the way
Baby, tryin' to get to you

Ever since I read your letter
Where you said you loved me true
I've been trav'lin' night and day
I've been runnin' all the way
Baby, tryin' to get to you

When I read your lovin' letter
Then my heart began to sing
There were many miles between us
But they didn't mean a thing

I just had to reach you, baby
In spite of all that I've been through
I kept trav'lin' night and day
I kept runnin' all the way
Baby, tryin' to get to you

Well if I had to do it over
That's exactly what I'd do
I would travel night and day
And I'd still run all the way
Baby, tryin' to get to you

Well, there's nothin' that could hold me
Or could keep me 'way from you
When your lovin' letter told me
That you really loved me true

Lord above He knows I love you
It was He who brought me through
When my way was dark at night
He would shine His brightest light
When I was tryin' to get to you


9. I'M GONNA SIT RIGHT DOWN AND CRY ( OVER YOU )

I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you
I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you
And if you ever say good-bye, if you ever even try
I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you

I'm gonna love you more and more every day
I'm gonna love you more and more in every way
And if you ever say good-bye, if you ever even try
I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you

I'm gonna tell my mama tell my papa too
So they'll know exactly what I'm gonna do
If you ever say good-bye, if you ever even try
I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you

I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you
I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you
I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you


10. I'LL NEVER LET YOU GO (LITTLE DARLIN')

I'll never let you go, little darlin'
I'm so sorry 'cause I made you cry
I'll never let you go, 'cause I love you
So please don't ever say good-bye

The stars would fall down beside me
The moon would hang its head and cry
My arms would never hold another baby doll
If we should ever say good-bye

Well, I'll never let you go
'Cause I love you, pretty baby
I-I'm so sorry 'cause I made you cry
I-I-I made you cry

Yeah, I'll never let you go
'Cause I love you, little baby
So please don't ever say good-bye


11. BLUE MOON

Blue moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own.
Blue moon, you knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for.

Blue, Blue, without a love of my own.

Blue moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own.

Blue, Whaaaaa, without a love of my own.

Blue moon, Blue, Whaa Whaa Whaa Whaa Whaa without a love of my own.

Omitted
(And then there suddenly appeared before me
the only one my arms will ever hold. I heard somebody whisper,
'Please adore me' and when I looked, the moon had turned to gold.)

Blue moon, now I'm no longer alone, without a dream in my heart,
without a love of my own.


12. MONEY HONEY

You know, the landlord rang my front door bell.
I let it ring for a long, long spell.
I went to the window,
I peeped through the blind,
And asked him to tell me what's on his mind.
He said,

Money, honey.
Money, honey.
Money, honey, if you want to get along with me.

Well, I screamed and I hollered,
I was so hard-pressed.
I called the woman that I loved the best.
I finally got my baby about half past three,
She said I'd like to know what you want with me.
I said,

Money, honey.
Money, honey.
Money, honey,
If you want to get along with me.

Well, I said tell me baby, what's wrong with you?
From this day on our romance is through
I said, tell me baby, face to face
How could another man take my place?
She said,

Money, honey.
Money, honey.
Money, honey,
If you want to get a long with me.

Well, I've learned my lesson and now I know
The sun may shine and the winds may blow.
The women may come and the women may go,
But before I say I love you so,
I want

Money, honey.
Money, honey.
Money, honey,
If you want to get along with me.
