1. That's All Right (Mama)

Well, that's all right, mama
That's all right for you
That's all right mama, just anyway you do
Well, that's all right, that's alright.
That's all right now mama, anyway you do

Well, mama she done told me,
Papa done told me too
Son, that gal your foolin' with,
She ain't no good for you'
But that's all right, that's all right.
That's all right now mama, anyway you do

I'm leavin' town now baby
I'm leavin' town for sure
Well, then you wont be bothered with
Me hangin' 'round your door
But, that's all right, that's all right.
That's all right now mama, anyway you do

I done a di-di di-di-di-di di-di-di-di di-di-di-di
I don't need your lovin', that's all right.
That's all right now mama, anyway you do



2. Lawdy Miss Clawdy

Well lawdy, lawdy, lawdy miss clawdy
Girl you sure look good to me
But please don't excite me baby
I know it can't be me

'Cause I give you all my money
Yeah but you just won't treat me right
You like to ball every morning
Don't come home till late at night

Gonna tell, tell my mama
Lord, I swear girl what you been doing to me
I'm gonna tell everybody that I'm down in misery

So bye, bye, bye, baby
Gal, I won't be comin' no more
Goodbye little darlin' down the road I'll go (* See below)
So, bye, bye, bye baby
Girl, I won't be comin' no more
Goodbye little darlin' down the road I'll go



3. Mystery Train

Train I ride, sixteen coaches long
Train I ride, sixteen coaches long

Well that long black train got my baby and gone

Train, train, comin' 'round, 'round the bend
Train, train, comin' 'round, 'round the bend
Well it took my baby, but it never will again no, not again

Train, train, comin' down, down the line
Train, train, comin' down down the line
Well it's bringin' my baby, 'cause she's mine all, all mine
(She's mine, all, all mine)

Train, train, comin' 'round, 'round the bend 'round, 'round the bend
Train, train, comin' 'round, 'round the bend 'round the bend
Well it took my baby, but it never will again never will again
Oh woh! Ha ha ha ha ......
Train, train, comin' down, down the line
Train, train, comin' down down the line
Well it's bringin' my baby, 'cause she's mine all, all mine



4. Playing For Keeps

I-I'm playin' for keeps
This time it's real
And I want you to know
Exactly how I feel
I-I'm playin' for keeps
For sure this time
And I won't be happy
Un-until I know you're mine

There have been others
That could love me true
But no one else
Can thrill me like you do
I-I'm playin' for keeps
Oh love me too
Oh, don't make me sorry
That I fell in love with you



5. Poor Boy
(Matson - Presley)

* They call me poor boy, poor boy, poor boy
But I ain't lonesome and I ain't blue
'Cause I could never be a poor boy
As long as I've got a dolly like you

Ain't got a crust, ain't got a cent
Can't buy a jug, can't pay the rent
I got a heart full of dreams
And a lot of memories
And that's enough for me

*Repeat

Can't buy a house, can't buy a lot
Ain't got a bean, I ain't got a pot
But what I got is a heart full of
Lovin' memory
And that's enough for me

*Repeat

Don't have a pig, don't have a cow
I don't have a horse to pull a plough
But what I got is a heart full of
Lovin' memory
And that's enough for me

They call me poor boy, poor boy, poor boy
But I ain't lonesome and I ain't blue
'Cause I could never be a poor boy
As long as I've got a dolly like, I've got a dolly like
I've got a dolly like .... you



6. My Baby Left Me

Yes, my baby left me
Never said a word
Was it something I done
Something that she heard?

My baby left me,
My baby left me,
My baby even left me,
Never said a word.

Lord, I stand at my window
Wring my hands and cry,
I hate to lose that woman,
Hate to say good-bye.

You know she left me,
Yeah, she left me.
My baby even left me,
Never said a word.

Play the blues, boys.

Baby, one of these mornings,
Lord it won't be long.
You'll look for me, baby,
And daddy will be gone

You know you left me.
You know you left me.
My baby even left me,
Never said good-bye.

Now I stand at my winda'
Wring my hands and moan.
All I know is that the one I love is gone.

Yes, my baby left me,
Never said a word.



7. I Was The One

I was the one who taught her to kiss
The way that she kisses you now
And you know the way she touches your cheek
Well, I taught her how

I was the one who taught her to cry
When she wants you under her spell
The sight of her tears drives you out of your mind
I taught her so well

And then one day
I had my love as perfect as could be
She lived, she loved, she laughed, she cried
And it was all for me
I - I'll never know who taught her to lie
And now that it's over and done
And who learned the lesson when she broke my heart?
I was the one



8. Shake, Rattle And Roll

Well get out of that bed, wash your face and hands
Get out of that bed, wash your face and hands
Well get in that kitchen
And make some noise with the pots and pans
Well I believe to my soul you're the devil in nylon hose
Well I believe to my soul you're the devil in nylon hose
'Cause the harder I work the faster my money goes

Well I said shake, rattle and roll
I said shake rattle and roll
I said shake, rattle and roll
I said shake rattle and roll
Well you won't do right
To save your doggone soul

Shake rattle and roll

I'm like the one-eyed cat peeping in a seafood store
I'm like the one-eyed cat peeping in a seafood store
Well I can look at you tell you ain't no child no more
I believe you're doin' me wrong and now I know
I believe you're doin' me wrong and now I know
'Cause the harder I work the faster my money goes

Shake it again!

I been over and in, way down underneath
I been over and in, way down underneath
You make me roll my eyes
And then you make me grit my teeth



9. I'm Left, You're Right, She's Gone

Well, you're right, I'm left, she's gone.
You're right, and I'm left all alone.
Well, you tried to tell me so,
But how was I to know
That she was not the one for me?

You told me all along,
You're right, our love was so wrong.
But now I changed my mind,
Because she broke the ties that bind,
And I know that she never cared for me.

Well, I thought I knew just what she'd do,
I guess I'm not so smart.
Oh, you tried to tell me along she'd only break my heart.
I'm left, you're right, she's gone.
You're right, and I'm left all alone.

Well, she's gone I know not where,
But now I just don't care.
For now I'm falling for you.

If you'll forgive me now,
I'll make it up somehow.
So happy we will be,
In a home just for three,
And I'll soon forget her,
Now I know.

Well, I thought I knew just what she'd do,
I guess I'm not so smart.
You tried to tell me all along,
She'd only break my heart.

Well, you're right, I'm left, she's gone.
You're right, and I'm left all alone.
Well, she's gone, I know not where,
But now I just don't care,
For now I've fallen for you.



10. You're A Heartbreaker

You're a heartbreaker
You're a love faker
You're a heartbreaker playing with fire
You're a tear snatcher
You're a quarrel patcher
But you can't break my heart anymore
For I have just found someone else who's sure to take your place
Someone I can always trust to fill this empty space

* You're a heartbreaker
You're a love faker
But you can't break my heart anymore

You're a smooth talker
You're a real cool walker
But now you have talked out of turn
You're a high stepper
You're an eye-catcher
But you won't catch my glances anymore.
For I have just found someone else who's sure to take your place,
Someone I can always trust and to fill this empty space.

* Repeat

You're a heartbreaker
You're a love faker
A heartbreaker playing with fire
You're a tear snatcher
You're a quarrel patcher
But you can't break my heart anymore
For I have just found someone else who's sure to take your place
Someone I can always trust to fill this empty space

* Repeat
