Am I Blue?
Am I Blue?
Composer(s): Harry Akst - Grant Clarke
First release by: Ethel Waters & Her Ebony 4 - 1929
Covered by multiple other artists
I'm just a woman, a lonely woman
Waiting on the weary shore
I'm just a woman who's only human
One you should feel sorry for
It was a morning, long before dawn
Without a warning I found he was gone
How could he do it, why should he do it
He never done it before
Am I blue, am I blue
Ain't these tears in these eyes telling you
How can you ask me am I blue
Why, wouldn't you be too
If each plan with your man
Done fell through
There was a time
When I was his only one
But now I'm the sad and lonely one ... lonely
Was I gay, until today
Now he's gone, and we're through
Am I blue

Woman Without Love
Woman Without Love
Composer(s): Jerry Donald Chestnut
Performer(s): Johnny Darrell;
and various other artists
Her eyes tell the story so well
She tries hard to hide
So little expected, too often neglected
A woman stripped of her pride
Always so careful not to cry
Until I fall asleep
And there in the silence
She lies with a tear on her cheek
The thought comes to mind that I read sometime
Or heard it, I can't quite recall
That a man without love's only half of a man
But a woman is nothing at all
She knows I don't love her
Although, heaven knows how I've tried
Her reason for living, to go right on giving
Is the one thing that she's been denied
Without any warning
In the wee hours of the morning she cries
The hurt deep inside she tries so to hide
Is beginning to show in her eyes
Then a thought comes to mind that I read sometime
Or heard it, I can't quite recall
That a man without love's only half of a man
But a woman is nothing at all
Yeah, a man without love's only half of a man
But a woman is nothing at all

Am I Asking Too Much
Am I Asking Too Much
Composer(s): Richards - R. Dean Taylor
Performer(s): Diana Ross & The Supremes
Through a shadowed world
I drift in emptiness and doubt
Because I push aside the love
I just can't live without
Please won't you give my crying eye
Just one more chance to see
That look upon your face
That promised love to me
Am I asking too much
Or is this love we had
Lost beyond recall
Am I asking too much
Can we start again and rise above it all
Kiss my ears with gentle words I need to hear
(Baby I love you)
Let your arms reach out and
Tell me that you need me dear
(Baby I need you)
'Cause if you need me darling
Baby, you'll forgive
(Forgive me dear)
You'll forgive me says the breath of air
I need to live
Am I asking too much
Even though I hurt you so
Don't say we're through
Am I asking too much
Won't you let me try
And make it up to you
All the precious hours we've wasted
All the bitter tears we've tasted
I need your love inside of me
Make me the girl I used to be
In your heart is there no longer room for me to live
When all I did was take, all you did was give
All the tears I made you cry
Turned your heart to stone
Has loneliness made up your mind
To live alone
Am I asking too much
Or is this love we had
Lost beyond recall
Am I asking too much
Can we start again and rise above it all
Am I asking too much
Won't you let me try
And make it up to you
Am I asking too much
Even though I hurt you so
Don't say were through
Am I asking too much
Or is this love we had
Lost beyond recall

Woman To Woman
Woman To Woman
Composer(s): Homer Banks; Eddie Marion; Henderson Thigpen
Performer(s): Shirley Brown
Hello
May I speak to Barbara
Barbara, this is Shirley
Now you might not know who I am
But the reason I'm callin' you is because
I was goin' through my old man's pockets this morning
And I just happened to find your name and number
So woman to woman
I don't think it's bein' any more than fair than to call you
And let you know where I'm comin' from
Now Barbara, I don't know how you're gonna take this
But whether you be cool or come out of a bag on me
You see, it really doesn't make any difference
But it's only fair that I let you know
That the man you're in love with, he's mine
From the top of his head to the bottom of his feet
The bed he sleeps in, and every piece of food he eats
You see, I make it possible
The clothes on his back, ha-ha, I bought him
The car he drives, I pay the note every month
So I'm tellin' you these things to let you know how much I love that man
And woman to woman I think you'll understand just how much I'll do to keep him
Woman to woman
If you've ever been in love
Then you'd know
How I feel
And woman to woman
Now if you were in my shoes
Wouldn't you have done
The same thing too
Whoa, woman to woman
Can't you see where I'm comin' from
And woman to woman
Ain't that the same thing you would have done
Woman to woman
Now should I just step aside
And let her take
What's rightfully mine
Whoa, woman to woman
Was I right or was I wrong
And I ain't gon' let you
Break up my happy home
Now woman to woman
Now you see I don't want no trouble now
I hope you understand
I love that man and he's mine
I'm talkin' to you woman to woman
You should be woman enough to understand
That man
I love that man
Woman, woman, woman to woman
He's mine
And I ain't gon' give him up
No, baby, and I ain't lyin'
The best of my years went into that man

Am I A Toy Or A Treasure
Am I A Toy Or A Treasure
Composer(s): Arthur Altman - Singer - Taylor
Performer(s): Kay Starr
Am I a toy
Or a treasure?
Which of the two
Am I to you?
Am I a puppet
That you dangle on a string?
Or is your love for me
A rare and precious thing?
Oh, will I be yours
To cherish forever
Or thrown away
One thoughtless day?
Am I to be
A here to stay thing
Or just another play thing?
Am I a toy
Or a treasure to you?
Am I a toy
Or a treasure?
Which of the two
Am I to you?
Am I a puppet
That you dangle on a string?
Or is your love for me
A rare and precious thing?
Oh, will I be yours

Or thrown away
One thoughtless day?

A here to stay thing
Or will I be another play thing?

Woman Of The World (Leave My World Alone)
Composer(s): Sharon Rose Higgins
Performer(s): Loretta Lynn
You came from the city streets to my little country town
Your spell is on my baby and you've got me sorrow bound
You don't really love him you're playin' around for fun
Woman of the world leave my world alone
You're the devil's woman that's what my man don't know
Why I wear more in swimmin'
than you wear to parties where you go
There's a place I know where you should go
for that's where you belong
Woman of the world leave my world alone
I don't know about the things the bright lights talk to you
My country boy don't know them any better than I do
I'll have to watch him hurtin' after you are gone
Woman of the world leave my world alone
You're the devil's woman that's what my man don't know
Why I wear more in swimmin' than you wear to parties where you go
There's a place I know where you should go for that's where you belong
Woman of the world leave my world alone

Woman Of The World
Composer(s): Darren Solomon; Steven Tyler
Performer(s): Aerosmith
Well, she's the woman of the world
And God she know it
She'll turn my head
Every time she shows it
Yeah, nothing you can do
Nothing you can say
No way you can try to change her way
She might be gone tomorrow
Honey, say what you gotta say
Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy what a woman
Well I tried, I tried so hard to please her
She'd give me a look if I beg to tease her
There's nothing you can say
Nothing you can do
No way you can try to choochie coo
She might be gone tomorrow
Oh, Lordy what you gonna do
And I tried with an open hand
And a heart of sorrow
Hoped that everything would be all right
Don't save too much lovin' for tomorrow
Get out all your lovin' here tonight
And I tried with an open hand
And a heart of sorrow
Hoped that everything would be all right
Don't save too much lovin' for tomorrow
Get out all your lovin' here tonight
She got big-eyed cats
She got coats of sable
She seats forty-four at her dinner table
And there's nothing you can do
Nothing you can say
No way you can try to change her way
She might be gone tomorrow
Oh, throwin' it all away

Always Wanting You
Always Wanting You
Composer(s): Merle Haggard
Performer(s): Merle Haggard; Loretta Lynn
Always wanting you, but never having you
Makes it hard to face tomorrow 'cause I
Know I'll be wanting you again
Always loving you, but never touching you
Sometimes hurts me almost more than I can stand
I'd been better off if I'd turned away and never
Looked at you the second time
'Cause I really had my life all together till your eyes meet mine
And there I say a yearning and a feeling 'cross
The room that you felt for me
Wish I'd had a way of knowing that the things we had in
Mind could never be
Always wanting you, but never having you
Makes it hard to face tomorrow 'cause I
Know I'll be wanting you again
Always loving you, but never touching you
Sometimes hurts me almost more than I can stand

Woman Of Labrador
Woman Of Labrador
Composer(s): Andy Vine
Performer(s): Andy Vine; Lindsay Street
Woman of Labrador
Children round your cabin door
Wondering when their daddy will be home
He's gone on trapping lines
Seems like such a long long time
Since he's waved his last farewell
And left you alone
Woman of Labrador
Turn your mind to daily chores
Hunting and catching fish
To feed your family
At night when they're all in bed
You go outside and raise your head
Watch the northern lights go dancing
High over the sea
Daughter of Labrador
Those days are here no more
You wonder if your baby will ever understand
The hardships that you endured
When everyone you knew was poor
Sharing everything you had
And living off the land
Woman of Labrador
Children round your cabin door
Wondering when their daddy will be home
He's gone on the trapping lines
Seems like such a long long time
Since he's waved his last farewell
And left you alone

I Washed My Face In The Morning Dew
I Washed My Face In The Morning Dew
Composer(s): Tom T. Hall
First release by: Tom T. Hall - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists
The first strange town I was ever in
The county was hangin' a man
Nobody cared if he lived or died
And I just didn't understand
So I washed my face in the morning dew
Bathed my soul in the sun
Washed my face in the morning dew
And kept on movin' along
The second strange town that I was in
They were laughin' at a poor crippled man
Beggin' for nickels and dimes on the street
And I just didn't understand
So I washed my face in the morning dew
Bathed my soul in the sun
Washed my face in the morning dew
And kept on movin' along
The third strange town that I was in
Was settled, peaceful and nice
The rich got richer and the poor got poorer
And to me it didn't seem right
So I washed my face in the morning dew
Bathed my soul in the sun
Washed my face in the morning dew
And kept on movin' along
Someday times are bound to change
It can't be very far
And each injustice I have seen
Will come before the bar
Then I'll wash my face in the morning dew
Bathe my soul in the sun
Wash my face in the morning dew
And my journey will be done
Then my journey will be done

Woman Is The Nigger Of The World
Woman Is The Nigger Of The World
Composer(s): John Lennon; Yoko Ono
Performer(s): John Lennon; Cássia Eller
Woman is the nigger of the world
Yes she is... think about it
Woman is the nigger of the world
Think about it... do something about it
We make her paint her face and dance
If she won't be a slave, we say that she don't love us
If she's real, we say she's trying to be a man
While putting her down we pretend that she's above us
Woman is the nigger of the world.. yes she is
If you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with
Woman is the slave of the slaves
Ah, yeh... better scream about it
We make her bear and raise our children
And then we leave her flat for being a fat old mother hen
We tell her home is the only place she should be
Then we complain that she's too unworldly to be our friend
Woman is the nigger of the world... yes she is
If you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with
Woman is the slave to the slaves
Yeh (think about it)
We insult her every day on TV
And wonder why she has no guts or confidence
When she's young, we kill her will to be free
While telling her not to be so smart
We put her down for being so dumb
Woman is the nigger of the world
Yes she is...
If you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with
Woman is the slave to the slaves
Yes, she is...
If you believe me, you better scream about it
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance

Boy Like You
Boy Like You (aka Girl Like You)
Composer(s): Tompall Glaser
Performer(s): Loretta Lynn
There's a jukebox in my ear playin' so loud I can hardly hear
It's tellin' a story about a boy like you
And each selection that I make tells me how my heart will break
For fallin' in love with a boy like you
Though it's just an ol' machine without a heart but oh so mean
It says I'll prob'ly spend my whole life feelin' blue
So I'll put in one more dime and play that same song one more time
'Cause I wanna hear about a boy like you
Though it's just an ol' machine without a heart but oh so mean
It says I'll prob'ly spend my whole life feelin' blue
I know that I should go on home but I can't stand to be alone
'Cause I always dream about a boy like you
Yes I always dream about a boy like you

Versions In Other Languages:
1980 - Une Femme Amoureuse (by Mireille Mathieu)
1981 - To Je Štestí (by Helena Vondrácková)
Life is a moment in space
When the dream is gone
It's a lonelier place
I kiss the morning goodbye
But down inside you know
We never know why
The road is narrow and long
When eyes meet eyes
And the feeling is strong
I turn away from the wall
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all...
I am a woman in love
And I do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do?
With you eternally mine
In love there is
No measure of time
We planned it all at the start
That you and I
Would live in each other's hearts
We may be oceans away
You feel my love
I hear what you say
No truth is ever a lie
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all
I am a woman in love
And I do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do?
I am a woman in love
And I'm talking to you
Do you know how it feels?
What a woman can do
It's a right
That I defend over and over again......

I Hope I Never Love That Much Again
I Hope I Never Love That Much Again
Composer(s): Roy Baham)
Performer(s): Dave Dudley
I know just how great love can be, I loved so much one time
I know how it hurts to see it end
I've had my share and if I live to be a hundred years
I hope I never love that much again
The bigger the love, the harder the fall
And it takes a long time for a heart to mend
If there should ever come a time when I could love at all
I hope I never love that much again
I loved her more than life itself, she was ev'rything to me
For I believed in life and love back then
If I can just forget she's gone, if her mem'ry sets me free
I hope I never love that much again
The bigger the love, the harder the fall
And it takes a long time for a heart to mend
If there should ever come a time when I could love at all
I hope I never love that much again
I hope I never love that much again

Woman in Chains

Well I feel lying and waiting is a poor man's deal
And I feel hopelessly weighed down by your eyes of steel

Trades her soul as skin and bone
Sells the only thing she owns
Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains
Men of Stone Men of Stone
Well I feel deep in your heart there are wounds Time can't heal
And I feel somebody somewhere is trying to breathe
Well you know what I mean

I'll tear it a part but I won't understand
I will not accept the Greatness of Man
It's a world gone crazy
Keeps Woman in Chains
