3.Why Don't You Try Me
(e. young)
If your man has got you on the run why don't you try me ？
If you wanna have a little fun, oh baby, why don't you try me ？
If you tote more that you can bear, if your troubles been more
than your share
And if things are not going just right why don't you try a man
like me tonight ？
Why don't you try me tonight ？
Why don't you try me ？
Why don't you try me tonight ？
Why don't you try me ？
Last night while i was trying to sleep
I heard a racket from the room next door, hum
And that was you and your man havin' a fight
Like you've done so many nights before
'woman, i'll turn you every which way but loose'
Is what i heard him shout, uh-oh, look out!
So i jumped out of the bed and i opened the door
Just as you came runnin' out
And i hollered： why don't you try me tonight ？
Why don't you try me ？
Why don't you try me tonight ？
Why don't you try me ？
I ain't saying i'm all that you need
And i won't tell you, honey, you will be free
But all night, well, i will keep trying
And when i say i want ya, girl, you know i'm not lyin'
You see a good woman out on the streets these days, friends
Ah, a bad old man can't be hard to find, no, no

And call true love a crime
That's why i keep asking ya, baby

4.Down In The Boondocks
(joe south)
Down in the boondocks, down in the boondocks
People put me down 'cause that's the side of town i was born in
I love her and she loves me
But i don't fit in her society
Lord have mercy, i'm a boy from down in the boondocks
Now, every night i watch the lights from the house upon the hill
Well, i love a little girl who lives up there and i guess i
always will
But i don't dare knock on her door
'cause her daddy is my boss man
So i'll just have to be content and see her whenever i can
Take a trip on down in the boondocks,
Take a ride on down in the boondocks
People put me down 'cause that's the side of town i was born in
See, i love her and she loves me
But i don't fit her society
Lord have mercy, i'm a boy from down in the boondocks
One fine day i'll find a way and move from this old shack
Well, i'll hold my head up like a king and i'll never, never
will look back
'til that morning i'll work and slave
And i'll save every dime
But tonight she'll have to steal away
To see me one more time
Get together, darling, down in the boondocks
Making love, darling, down in the boondocks
People put me down 'cause that's the side of town i was born in
I love her and she loves me
But i don't fit her society
Lord have mercy, i'm a boy from down in the boondocks
Lord have mercy, i'm a boy from down in the boondocks
5.Johnny Porter
(bobby ray appleberry／william cuomo)
Johnny porter was the oldest in his family
And i remember he was almost twenty one
Y'know i can't quite explain the situation
But he broke into his father's truck and stole a gun
Mother running down the highway screaming
Johnny it's too bad, oh it's too and it's bad
And it's too bad
Well, his father wonders where he got the money
And he wonders if he got it right or wrong
Then johnny killed a man in pensacola, florida
And he caught a freight train and and took off on the run
Well, run, johnny, run
They're rolling right behind you
Run, johnny, run
You know they're gonna find you
You come out late at night, 'cause you're running for your life
Hum, johnny porter
Johnny porter
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, it's a shame the way you make your mother worry
And it's hurts inside to sit and watch her cry
And it will be a long time before she knows the answer
But it won't be long before she will see ya die
Well, i was standing in my front door early this morning
So sad, when i heard my name was said
Johnny porter was no good than anybody
But i hate to see him throw his life away
Now, run, johnny, run
They're rolling right behind you
Run, johnny, run
You know they're gonna find you
You come out late at night, 'cause you're running for your life
Well, johnny porter, johnny porter
Found him holed up in some dark and dirty building
Heard his mother begging, 'please, let johnny go!'
That's when john fired his pistol
As a warning and he said,
'i was born to die by the gun'
'i was born to die by the gun'
'i was born to die by the gun'
6.The Way We Make A Broken Heart
(john hiatt)
Just a one more kiss
He'll have to miss
This night with you
Now you're guilty of this secret love as i am too
You'll get used to telling lies
And feeling sorry when he cries
Now that the strings are attached
He'll catch on, we've done our part
'cause this is the way we make a broken heart
Lesson number one
We've just begun
To hurt him so
And with lesson two
He'll long for you
When lights are low
Then we get to lesson three
Where he gets down on his knees
And begs you to stop at the door
Just before he comes apart
And this is the way we make a broken heart
Now we've layed a trail of tears
For him to follow
And we've thought of every line
That he might swallow
And with lesson four
There'll be no more
For him to bear
And on some dark night
We'll dim the lights
On this affair
Then he'll find somebody new
And she will hurt him too
'cause there must be millions just like you and me
Practiced in the art
This is the way we make a broken heart
Oh, this is the way we make a broken heart
This is the way we make a broken heart
7.Crazy 'bout An Automobile(Every Woman I Know)
(william r. emerson)
-man, i'm gonna tell you my story
-go on and tell about it, go on and tell about it more
-just what i've been doing
-what you've been doing, ry ？
-well, you know i used to be particular about the womens that i
picked
-aha!

-but the way things has been going, i'll take 'em knock-kneed
and bow-legged
-what ？
-i'll even take 'em bald! man. i'll tell you why
-please, tell me why!
Every woman i know is crazy 'bout an automobile
Every woman i know is crazy 'bout an automobile
And here i am standing with nothing but rubber heels.
He-hey, every woman i know, crazy 'bout an automobile
Oh, every woman i know, crazy 'bout an automobile
And here i am standing with nothing but rubber heels.
Now look'it here!
They say, walking women home is a thing of the past
Women want to ride and ride around in class
Some like cadillacs, boys, some like fords
Some like anything as long as it rolls.
And here i am standing with nothing but rubber heels
Well, every woman i know she's crazy 'bout an automobile
Every woman i know is crazy 'bout an automobile
And here i am standing with nothing but rubber heels
One more thing i wanna tell you
Said, riding and loving just can't be beat,
You and your woman in your own front seat.
Now, she can play with your keys, shift the gears,
Turn on your radio just loud enough to hear.
Now, she can turn up the heat and flip on your fan,
And then you start rolling just as fast as you can.
Crazy 'bout an automobile
And just here i am standing with nothing but rubber heels
Man, when i get some money i just got to get me some kind of
automobile
You don't seem like the women in this town just don't pay no
attention to ya 'less you're driving
Look at that big, fine buick over there
Oh, i like that one
Yeah, now, looks like somebody left the keys in it
Oh, let's take a ride
Nothing but rubber heels
8.The Girls From Texas
(james lewis／jimmy holiday／cliff chambers)
Well, i met a girl from texas 'bout a year ago
Hadn't known her for too long when i had to let her go
You see, she had a razor, was ten inches or so
And every night you'd hear her knocking at my door
She said, 'baby, i'll give you the clothes on my back
You can have everything that i've got in my shack
But if you ever try to leave they'll take your out in sack
'cause me and my razor will see to that'
That's the way the girls are from texas
That's the way the girls are from texas
That's the way the girls are from texas
I thought about my situation, decided not to tarry
For my own self preservation i decided we should marry
When the preacher started reading 'bout 'till death do us part
I told him, 'skip it, we had that understanding right from the
start'
That's the way the girls are from texas
That's the way the girls are from texas (houston to san antone)
That's the way the girls are from texas (got to love 'em right
or leave 'em alone)
Well, we settled down, got me a little old job, '65 fairlane
ford
Every friday night i would stop in and cash my pay check down at
the grocery store
They had a little girl worked in there, must have been about
seventeen
She was the cutest thing i had ever seen
It's the same old story and i'm afraid it wasn't too very long
Before we had fallen deeply in love and i knew it was wrong
I said baby, we got to stop this thing right here
Or my woman is gonna cut my throat from ear to ear, that's right
Tearful suffocation, she looked up in my face
I could feel her heart was breaking as these sad words she did
say
'you should have told me you was married, baby
She pulled out a forty-five and let me have it, right smack
between the eyes
That's the way the girls are from texas
That's the way the girls are from texas
That's the way the girls are from texas
She was guilty, i was dead
Now, what'd you think that the old judge said ？
'ah, that's just the way the girls are down here in texas
Case dismissed!'
That's the way the girls are from texas
That's the way the girls are from texas (houston to san antone)
That's the way the girls are from texas (got to love 'em right
or leave 'em alone, boy)

10.Never Make Your Move Too Soon
(will jennings／nesbert hooper jr.)
Three days of snow out in birmingham
Thought you would wonder where i am
Called up your number all night long
No consolations on the telephone
Ran out and caught that midnight flight
Thought a little loving would make everything all right
But, no!
Landlord said, 'you'd moved away
And left me all your bills to pay'
It's too bad, baby, you might have made your move too soon
I think you might have made your move too soon, girl
Now, look here
Left me out here with a keno card
Life in vegas really ain't so hard
Ran it up to about fifty grand
Cashed it in and held it in my hand
That kinda money gets the word around
And makes a lost love come up found
I hear you knocking baby at my door
You ain't living here no more
I tried to tell you before
But you made your move too soon
Now i'm gonna play!
All right, now i'm just going to tell you one more thing
Well, i've been from texas down to tokyo
Okinawa back to ohio
Never tried to make the news
I'm just a man that loves to play the blues
Take my guitar everywhere
Now, if you people don't like it, i really don't care
Crowd jumps up and the band falls down
Love to see us rolling into town
Because the people know, well, we never make our move too soon
Never make your move too soon
Ya made your move too soon, girl
Ya made your move too soon, baby....babe
I think ya made your move too soon
Let's hear it for all the chickens that died in the heat wave
Two millions chickens, god almighty
In arkansas, down in oklahoma, by god
Texas, arizona
