Where, oh where, can my baby be? the lord took her away from
Me. shes gone to heaven, so Ive got to be good. so I can see my baby when i
Leave this world.

We were out on a date in my daddys car. we hadnt driven very far. there in
The road, straight ahead. a car was stalled, the engine was dead.

I couldnt stop, so I swerved to the right. Ill never forget the sound that
Night. the screamin tires, the bustin glass. the painful scream that I heard
Last.

Oh where, oh where, can my baby be? the lord took her away from me. shes gone
To heaven, so Ive got to be good. so I can see my baby when I leave this world.

When I woke up the rain was pourin down. there were people standin all around.
Something warm flowing through my eyes. but somehow I found my baby that night.
I lifted her head, she looked at me and said. hold me darling, just a little
While. I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss. I found the love that i
Knew I had missed.

Well now shes gone. even though I hold her tight. I lost my love, my life,
That night.

Oh where, oh where, can my baby be? the lord took her away from me. shes gone
To heaven, so Ive got to be good. so I can see my baby when I leave this
World.

I just get all choked up when I hear this one.

Put another log on the fire.
Cook me up some bacon & some beans.
Go out to the car & change the tire.
Wash my socks & sew my old bluejeans.

C'mon baby, you can fill my pipe & then go fetch my slippers, & boil me up another pot of teaaa,
than put another log on the fire babe,
& come & tell me why your leavin' me.

Now, don't I let you wash the car on Sunday?
And don't I warn you when your gettin' fat?
Ain't I gonna take you fishin' with me someday?
Now a man can't love a woman more than that.
Ain't I always nice to your kid sister?
Don't I take her drivin' every night?
So, sit here at my feet
cuz I like you when your sweet
And you know it ain't feminine to fight.

So, put another log on the fire.
Cook me up some bacon & some beans.
Go out to the car, lift it up & change the tire.
Wash my socks & sew my old blue jeans.
C'mon baby, you can fill my pipe & then go fetch my slippers & boil me up another pot of teaaa,
then put another log on the fire babe,
and come & tell me why your leavin' me.

We need a little humor too.

PAUL DAVIS - "I Go Crazy"

Hello girl it's been awhile
Guess you'll be glad to know
That I've learned how to laugh and smile
Getting over you was slow
They say old lovers can be good friends
But I never thought I'd really see you
I'd really see you again

I go crazy
When I look in your eyes
I still go crazy
No my heart just can't hide
That old feelin' inside
Way deep down inside
Oh baby, you know when I look in your eyes
I go crazy

You say he satifies your mind
Tells you all of his dreams
I know how much that means to you
I realize that I was blind
Just when I thought I was over you
I see your face and it just ain't true
No it just ain't true

I go crazy
When I look in your eyes
I still go crazy
That old flame comes alive
It starts burning inside
Way deep down inside
Oh baby, you know when I look in your eyes
I go crazy

[Instrumental Interlude]

Whoah-hoo-hoo

I go crazy
You know when I look in your eyes
I go crazy
No my heart just can't hide
That old feelin' inside
Way deep down inside
I go crazy

Uncle Lem
By Merle Haggard

Ladies of the Garden Club say his home is just a disgrace to the town
If the mayor wants re-elected he'd better pass some laws and tear it down
They wanna' cover it with flowers, maybe even plant some Dogwood trees.
I guess that they've forgotten, when we were kids, what that place used to be.

I know it's just a shanty now but Lord that place was built with human tears
For it's the home of Uncle Lem who was born and raised and lived there ninety years
There's not a boy in this ole' town that had'nt stopped for water at his well.
Or sat on his porch in the evenin' and listened to the stories that he'd tell.

His hair was the color of cottonfields and his skin was old and brown
And he was born in that rundown shack before there was a town
He bought that shack and piece of earth for the highest price you'd pay
His Mom was bought and sold there, Uncle Lem was born a slave.

(spoken)
The mayor and some ladies of the Garden Club went out to that old shack
to tell Uncle Lem that he'd have to find another place to live. But they found him there
in that old broken down rockin' chair and on an old brown paper sack thay found his will.
Now I wanna leave my old shotgun to the fine mayor of this town for I remember when
he was just a little fella' he used to follow me around. Lord, I wish I had more to
leave to my friends that I love, but, Lord, all I've got's this old shack and piece of earth
and I want it to go to the ladies of the Garden Club.

His hair was the color of cottonfields and his skin was old and brown
And he was born in that rundown shack before there was a town
He bought that shack and piece of earth for the highest price you'd pay
His Mom was bought and sold there, Uncle Lem was born a slave.
