INTRO

I don’t care if tomorrow never comes,
This world holds nothin’ for me.
I’ve been lonely night and day ever since you went away,
So I don’t care if tomorrow never comes.

If tomorrow never comes and the sun don’t ever shine,
It won’t matter with me.
For when she went away, my world ended that day,
So I don’t care if tomorrow never comes.

INSTRUMENTAL

My lonely mind wanders back to days that used to be,
My broken heart cries out for you.
Oh, if I can’t have you here, I can’t go on my dear,
So I don’t care if tomorrow never comes.

If tomorrow never comes and the sun don’t ever shine,
It won’t matter with me.
For when she went away, my world ended that day,
So I don’t care if tomorrow never comes.

If tomorrow never comes and the sun don’t ever shine,
It won’t matter with me.
For when she went away, my world ended that day,
So I don’t care if tomorrow never comes.

Tuning: Standard

Well why don’t you love me like you used to do
How come you treat me like a worn out shoe
My hair’s still curly and my eyes are still blue
Why Don’t You Love Me Like You Used To Do.

Chorus:
Ain’t had no lovin’ like a huggin’ and a kissin’
in a long, long while
We don’t get nearer or further or closer
than a country mile;

Why don’t you spark me like you used to do
And say sweet nothin’s like you used to coo
I’m the same old trouble that you’ve always been through
Why Don’t You Love Me Like You Used To Do.

Well, why don’t you be just like you used to be
How come you find so many faults with me
Somebody’s changed so let me give you a clue
Why Don’t You Love Me Like You Used To Do.

(Repeat Chorus)

Why don’t you say the things you used to say
What makes you treat me like a piece of clay
My hair’s still curly and my eyes are still blue
Why Don’t You Love Me Like You Used To Do.

Tuning: Standard

Intro:

I know there’s never been a man in the awful shape I’m in
I can’t even spell my name my heads in such a spin
Today I tried to eat a steak with a big old table spoon
You got me chasin rabbits walkin on my hands and howlin at the moon

Well Sug I took one look at you and it almost drove me mad
And then I even went and lost what little sense I had
Now I can’t tell the day from night I’m crazy as a loon
You got me chasin rabbits pullin out my hair and howlin at the moon

Break:

Some friends of mine asked me to go out on a huntin spree
Cause there ain’t a hounddog in this state that can hold a light to me
I ate three bones for dinner today I tried to tree a coon
You got me chasin rabbits cratchin fleas and howlin at the moon

(Repeat Break)

I rode my horse to town today and a gas pump we did pass
I pulled him up and I hollered whoa and I said fill him up with gas
The man picked up a monkey wrench and wham he changed my tune
You got me chasin rabbitts spittin out teeth and howlin at the moon

I never thought in this old world a fool could fall so hard
But honey baby when I fell the whole world must have jarred
I think I’d quit my doggish ways if I’d take me for your goom
You got me chasin rabbitts pickin out rings and howlin at the moon

Well, when I woke up this mornin’
There was a note upon my door
Said don’t make me no coffee Babe
’Cause I won’t be back no more
And that’s all she wrote, Dear John
I’ve sent your saddle home

Now Jonah got along in the belly of the whale
Daniel in the lion’s den
But I know a guy that didn’t try to get along
And he won’t get a chance again
And that’s all she wrote, Dear John
I’ve fetched your saddle home

Now she didn’t forward no address
Nor she didn’t say goodbye
All she said was if you get blue
Just hang your little head and cry
And that’s all she wrote, Dear John
I’ve sent your saddle home

Now my gal’s short and stubby
She’s strong as she can be
But if that little old gal of mine
Ever get’s a-hold of me
That’s all she wrote, Dear John
I’ve sent your saddle home

Now Jonah got along in the belly of the whale
Daniel in the lion’s den
But I know a man that didn’t try to get along
And he won’t get a chance again
And that’s all she wrote, Dear John
I’ve fetched your saddle home

Now I went down to the bank this morning
The cashier said with a grin
I feel so sorry for you Hank
But your wife has done been in
And that’s all she wrote, Dear John
I’ve sent your saddle home

Intro:

When I agree with you baby it makes you mad
and when I don’t it makes you sad
When I argue back you pack and leave
and when I don’t you pout in grieve

Chorus:
There just ain’t nobody knows what I go through
Will you please make up your mind what you want me to do

You say get out and I’d better stay gone
Then you have a big policeman drag me back home
You holler good and loud put him in the calaboose
Then you cry and ask the judge won’t you please turn him loose

(Repeat Chorus)

My life with you baby has been one hard knock
Lord my head looks like an old chop block
And I’ll tell you right now honey that ain’t all
You done kicked me till I feel like a used football

(Repeat Chorus)

You knock me down and then you pick me up
Honey do you have to love so dog gone rough
I wish to my soul you’d slow down the pace
Cause I tell you right now the hides gettin scace

(Repeat Chorus)

Why when I married you you were such a meek little thing
But honey among tigers you’d be queen
If a poor little rabbit had you on his side
Every hound in the country would crawl off and hide

(Repeat Chorus)

Tuning: Standard

Chorus:

Weary blues from waiting
Lord I’ve been waiting too long
These blues have got me crying
Oh sweet mamma please come home

The snow falls around my window
But it can’t chill my heart
God knows it died the day you left
My dream world fell apart

(Repeat Chorus)

Through tears I watch young lovers
As they go strolling by
Oh all the things that might have been
God forgive me if I cry

(Repeat Chorus)

I’m a headin’ back to Dixie
That’s the place I long to be
Where the cotton grows and the Swanee flows
That’s home sweet home to me
Where they meet you and they greet you
With the sweetest how you all
Well shut my mouth, I’m a headin’ south
On the Dixie Cannonball.

Chorus:
On the Dixie Cannonball, on the Dixie Cannonball
Just listen to the whistle, it’ll thrill you one and all
And I know there’s some one waitin’, with the sweetest how you all
Well shut my mouth, I’m a headin’ south
On the Dixie Cannonball.

When I cross them Smokey mountains
I’ll be countin’ every mile
When the whistle blows, I’ll be on my toes
And I’ll shuffle down the aisle
And I know I’ll not be lonesome
When I see them treetops tall
I’m coming through on the big choo-choo
On the Dixie Cannonball.

Chorus:

Yes, I’m goin’ back to Dixie
That’s the place I long to be
Where the cotton grows and the Swanee flows

That’s home sweet home to me
Where they meet you and they greet you
With the sweetest how you all
Well shut my mouth, I’m a headin’ south
On the Dixie Cannonball.

Intro:

Comb your hair and paint and powder
you act proud and I’ll act prouder
You sing loud and I’ll sing louder
tonight we’re settin’ the woods on fire

You’re my gal and I’m your feller
dress up in my frock and yeller
I’ll look swell but you’ll look sweller
settin’ the woods on fire

We’ll take in all the honky tonks
tonight we’re having fun
We’ll show the folks a brand new dance
that never has been done

I don’t care who thinks we’re silly
you’ll be daffy I’ll be dilly
We’ll order up two bowls of chili
settin’ the woods on fire

Break:

I’ll gas up my hot rod stoker
we’ll get hotter than a poker
You’ll be broke but I’ll be broker
tonight we’re settin’ the woods on fire

We’ll sit close to one another
up our street and down the other
we’ll have ball oh brother
settin’ the woods on fire

We’ll put aside a little time
to fix a flat or two
My tire and tubes are doin fine
but the air is showin’ through

You clap hands and I’ll start howlin
we’ll do all the law’s allowin
Tomorrow I’ll be right back plowin’
settin’ the woods on fire

Today I passed you on the street,
And my heart fell at your feet.
I CAN’T HELP IT if I’m still in love with you.
Somebody else stood by your side,
And he looked so satisfied.
I CAN’T HELP IT if I’m still in love with you.

A picture from the past came softly stealing,
As I brushed your arm and walked so close to you.
Then suddenly I got that old time feeling.
I CAN’T HELP IT if I’m still in love with you.

It’s hard to know another’s lips will kiss you.
And hold you just the way I used to do.
Oh, heaven only knows how much I miss you.
I CAN’T HELP IT if I’m still in love with you.

Repeat last line.
