All Is Forgiven, Come Home Composer(s): Candy Hemphill Christmas - Joel Hemphill Performer(s): Karen Froude
I gathered my treasures and followed the road With glamourous visions in mind I left some hearts aching, who'd loved me so strong I had new pleasures to find
The treasures were wasted And pleasures I tasted were bitter to me in the end And soulless I sought, I woke up and thought I heard a sweet voice on my way
Saying, "All is forgiven, come home All is forgiven, come home The Father's anxiously waiting, and watching the road All is forgiven, come home"
If you are someone who wandered away Leaving more love than you found Greener pastures glowing that caused you to stray Along the road leading down
There is someone who's love is forever He's the essence of mercy and grace Sweetly a small voice is speaking within Listen and you'll hear him say
"All is forgiven, come home All is forgiven, come home The Father's anxiously waiting, and watching the road All is forgiven, come home"
Come home, come home Ye who are weary, come home The Father's anxiously waiting, and watching the road All is forgiven, come home All is forgiven, come home All is forgiven, come home
Who's In The Strawberry Patch With Sally Composer(s): Russell Brown; Irwin Levine Performer(s): Tony Orlando & Dawn; Ray Conniff
One day happy, one day sad Feeling good, then feeling bad in anger words are spoken Then haste a heart is broken
who's in the strawberry patch with Sally Now that she's not picking them with me? Oh no, I don't care what they're doing there Beneath the shade of the old apple tree
Hey, I bet they're laughing and talking love talk Just like the way we used to do Ah, who's in the strawberry patch with Sally Whispering 'I love you'?
I can't take it, I just can't take it It's driving me mad Sally was the best love-maker That I ever had Who's in the strawberry patch with Sally? Who's making love to her tonight?
I can't take it, I just can't take it It's driving me mad Sally was the best love-maker That I ever had Who's in the strawberry patch with Sally While the Wabash moon is shining bright?
Had I been true to her I'd be there now In the strawberry patch with Sally tonight, oh yeah In the strawberry patch with my Sally tonight
All In The Name Of Love Performer(s): Willie Nelson
Big Jim Butcher was the king of the hill He ran his business with a deadly will His foreman, John, had a pretty wife The way she looked cut Jim like a knife
John was weak and his wife was, too Her name was Kate, and she fell in, too She let Big Jim do what he had to do And John stood by and his life was thru
It was all in the name of love All in the name of love You can't change the stars above All in the name of love
John took a bottle one drink at a time Stared off in space as he lost his mind Knew who it was on the telephone He saw it all and he felt so alone
One dark morning, John stood up like a man He took his shotgun with a steady hand He went to the motel - broke the door in He left two holes where two hearts had been
It was all in the name of love All in the name of love You can't change the stars above All in the name of love
He called the preacher and he called the law And when they got there it was pretty raw He said "Boys, you better come and take me away I've done all I can do in the name of love today"
It was all in the name of love All in the name of love You can't change the stars above All in the name of love
It was all in the name of love All in the name of love You can't change the stars above All in the name of love
It was all in the name of love All in the name of love You can't change the stars above All in the name of love
Who's Holding Donna Now? Composer(s): David Foster; Randy Goodrum; Jay Graydon Performer(s): DeBarge; Big Mountain
Sometimes a love won't let go Hard as I try I know it shows Everybody's telling me You'll be over her eventually But how am I supposed to feel so secure
When I keep wonderin' Who's holding Donna now And I keep wonderin' Who's heart she's knocking around There's nothing I wouldn't do To be in his shoes somehow And I keep wonderin' Who's holding Donna now And I keep wonderin' What magic can be found To turn me back to the one Who's holding Donna now
The letter started with goodbye I've read it half a million times Tell me this is just a dream When I wake up she'll be here next to me Tell me it will be just the way it was, oh
Well I keep wonderin' Who's holding Donna now And I keep wonderin' Who's heart she's knocking around There's nothing I wouldn't do To be in his shoes right now And I keep wonderin' Who's holding Donna now And I keep wonderin' What magic can be found To turn me back to the one Who's holding Donna now
Who's holding Donna now I keep wonderin' Who's heart she's knocking around There's nothing I wouldn't do To be in his shoes right now (Whoa whoa whoa!) Who's holding Donna now (Ohhhh Donna) What magic can be found To make me the one, Who's holding Donna now I can't get Donna off my mind Who's holding Donna now I keep wonderin' Who's heart she's knocking around There's nothing I wouldn't do To be in his shoes right now

Whos Gonna Take The Garbage Out Composer(s): Teddy Wilburn; Johnnny Tillotson; Lucille Cosenza Performer(s): Ernest Tubb & Loretta Lynn
I take too much abuse from you that's all I ever get Yeah... Callin' a man like you a husband is just like callin' a wildcat a pet
You'd better stop your runnin' around straighten-up and start movin on But who's gonna take your garbage out when I've packed my bags and gone
Each day you walk off over me can't you take another out If you start actin' like married man maybe we could find the way to work things out
You'll find your key won't fit the lock if you keep on a keepin' on But who's gonna take your garbage out when I've packed my bags and gone
I know you think I'm runnin' round and that's why you're so peeved That's another line of that same old stuff that I hope you don't expect me to believe
Go out tonight but don't come back because you just lost a home But who's gonna take your garbage out when I've packed my bags and gone
I know you think I'm runnin' round and thats why youre so peeved That's another line of that same old stuff that I hope you don't expect me to believe
Go out tonight but don't come back because you just lost a home But who's gonna take your garbage out when I've packed my bags and gone Honey who's gonna take your garbage out when I've packed my bags and gone
You're gonna miss me honey gal Ah Who are you kiddin'
Who's Gonna Take You Home Tonight Composer(s): Martin Page Performer(s): Tom Jones
There's a place you go after dark Where you sell your haunted heart In the shadows you look for the friend Who'll take you where the sidewalks ends
And it's a sad affair You reach out but no one's there
Tell me who's gonna take you home tonight Take your hand and hold you tight Who'll be the one to make it right And promise you paradise
Tell me who's gonna take you home tonight Turn the darkness into light And wipe away the tears you cry Just another stranger Will be taking you home tonight
You couldn't see that love was the price What happened to the light in your eyes Broken dreams fall at your feet You stand alone on a dead end street
So who's gonna hear you prayer Look around there's no one there He'll tell you dreams come true And take you to some rented room But when the blinds are drawn Another angel will fall
I guess it's in your blood One love just ain't enough
Tell me who's gonna take you home tonight Take your hand and hold you tight Who'll be the one to make it right And promise you paradise
Tell me who's gonna take you home tonight Turn the darkness into light And wipe away the tears you cry Just another stranger Will be taking you home tonight
All In Love Is Fair Composer(s): Stevie Wonder First release by: Stevie Wonder - 1973 Covered by multiple other artists
All is fair in love love's a crazy game Two people vow to stay in love as one they say
But all is changed with time the future none can see the road you leave behind Ahead lies mystery
But all is fair in love I had to go away A writer takes his pen to write the words again All in love is fair
All of fate's a chance it's either good or bad I tossed my coin to say to say in love with me you'd stay but all in war is so cold
you either win or lose when all is put away the losing side I'll play
But all is fair in love I should have never left your side A writer takes his pen to write the words again that all in love is fair A writer takes his pen to write the words again
Don't Be Surprised Composer(s): Margie Singleton - Jerry Kennedy Performer(s): Dave Dudley
I've known all alone that you had leavin' on your mind My questions had been answered by the look that's in your eyes Any day now you'll come to me and I know just what you'll say First you apologize say that you expect the words and then walk away
Don't be surprised if I don't look surprised when you say goodbye Don't be takin' by surprise but you expect the absence of tears in my eyes Any day now you'll come to me...
Who's Gonna Play This Old Piano? Composer(s): Ray Griff Performer(s): Jerry Lee Lewis
Who's gonna play this ol' piana After I'm not here? Who's gonna sing these sad songs to you 'Cause your eyes to fill with tears? Who's gonna keep these ivories talking Like Jerry's doin' now? Who's gonna play this ol' piano After my last bow? When that final curtain calls Someday lord it will!

Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes Composer(s): Troy Seals; Max D. Barnes Performer(s): George Jones; Tammy Wynette
You know this old world is full of singers But just a few are chosen To tear your heart out when they sing Imagine life without them All your, radio heros Like the outlaw that walks through Jesse's dream
No, there will never be another Red-headed stranger A Man in Black and Folsom Prison Blues The Okie from Muskogee Or Hello Darling Lord I wonder, who's gonna fill their shoes
(Chorus:) Who's gonna fill their shoes Who's gonna stand that tall Who's gonna play the Opry And the Wabash Cannonball Who's gonna give their heart and soul To get to me and you Lord I wonder, who's gonna fill their shoes
God bless the boys from Memphis Blue Suede Shoes and Elvis Much too soon he left this world in tears They tore up the Fifties Old Jerry Lee and Charlie And old Go Cat Go still echoes through the years
You know the heart of country music Still beats in Luke the Drifer You can tell when hew sings I Saw the Light Old Marty, Hank and Lefty Why I can feel them right here with me On this Silver Eagle rolling through the night
Mad Composer(s): Tom T. Hall Performer(s): Dave Dudley
I got about half high so I spent the whole weekend out I got home Monday morning tore up like a can of Kraut My only suit was layin' on the steps I just picked up and run and I ain't been back there since Well mad yeah she's mad It's back to the doghouse I know from the practise I've had When she's mad I play a dangerous game In the obituary column they've already printed my name
She's five feet three and weights about hundred and eight She's the kind of gal who don't believe in men a makin' mistakes She's sweet and mighty nice But when she's mad she's got a voice that'll cut through ice Well mad ooh she's mad...
She's got eyes like a cat and she watches every move that I make An alarm clock mind that's ringin' every time that I'm late I'm sorry sick and all alone But I'll have to stick it out cause it just ain't safe to go home Well mad ooh she's mad... In the obituary column they've already printed my name In the obituary column they've already printed my name
Who's Crying Now Composer(s): Jonathan Cain; Steve Perry Performer(s): Journey
It's been a mystery and still they try to see Why somethin' good can hurt so bad Caught on a one-way street, the taste of bittersweet Love will survive somehow, some way
One love feeds the fire One heart burns desire I wonder, who's cryin' now Two hearts born to run Who'll be the lonely one I wonder, who's cryin' now
So many stormy nights, so many wrongs or rights Neither could change their headstrong ways And in a lover's rage, they tore another page The fightin' is worth the love they save
One love feeds the fire One heart burns desire I wonder, who's cryin' now Two hearts born to run Who'll be the lonely one I wonder, who's cryin' now
Only so many tears you can cry 'Til the heartache is over And now you can say your love Will never die
Whoa, oh
One love feeds the fire One heart burns desire I wonder, who's cryin' now Two hearts born to run Who'll be the lonely one I wonder, who's cryin' now
Lasciami appoggiare un po' la testa sopra il tuo seno adagio adagio con la tua dolcezza mi sfiori la mano un brivido mi increspa la pelle mentre lasci cadere lo scialle le tue calze colore di mare giù dal letto le vedo volare e nell'ombra il profilo del corpo immaturo che hai Così piccola come un pulcino insieme mi tieni vicino con quel modo di inventare l'amore che tu hai Così piccola come un pulcino che si appisola nella mia mano con quel modo di giocare amore che tu hai Non dirmi che hai paura a fare l'amore perchè non ci credo che cosa ti succede proprio adesso che io ti volevo Se davvero ho sbagliato qualcosa sono quì posso chiederti scusa se sorridi ad una stella così bella come nell'improvviso diventerai incosciente anche tu..... Così piccola come un pulcino insieme mi tieni vicino con quel modo di inventare l'amore che tu hai Così piccola come un pulcino che si appisola nella mia mano con quel modo di giocare amore che tu hai
Who's Cheatin' Who Composer(s): Jerry Hayes Performer(s): Alan Jackson; and various other artists
Everywhere you look you can write a book On the trouble of a woman and a man But you can not impose you can't stick your nose Into something that you don't understand
But still you wonder Who's cheatin' who, who's being true Who don't even care anymore It makes you wonder Who's doing right with someone tonight And who's car is parked next door
I thought I knew her well I really couldn't tell That she had another lover on her mind You see it felt so right when she held me tight How could I be so blind
But still you wonder Who's cheatin' who, who's being true Who don't even care anymore It makes you wonder Who's doing right with someone tonight And who's car is parked next door
A heart is on the line each and every time Love is stolen in the shadows of the night Though it's wrong all along it keeps going on As long as you keep in outta sight
But still you wonder Who's cheatin' who, who's being true Who don't even care anymore It makes you wonder Who's doing right with someone tonight And who's car is parked next door
Who's Blue Now? Composer(s): Caesar; Meyer Performer(s): Fred Waring
Who's blue now? You ought to know You made me go Who's blue now? You ought to say You had your way
You drifted far apart from me You didn't care You took the very heart from me You didn't spare me
Who's saying "Oh, what a break! What a mistake!" Who's paying With many a heartache? Hate you, I don't Love you I won't Now that I'm through Who's blue now? Nobody but you!
