T.G. Sheppard Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.I Loved 'Em Every One

Lyricist:P Sampson

I've known some painted ladies that sparkled in the light
Country girls that loved the lovers moon
Some I never really knew, though I always wanted to
Some I only met once in a room

Some said they liked my smile, others of 'em stayed a while
While others left me on the run
This is the only way, only way I have to say
I loved 'em every one

Big, little or short or tall, wish I could've kept them all
I loved 'em every one
Like to thank 'em for their charms, holdin' me in their arms
And I hope they had some fun

Here's to the ladies in saloons and living rooms
Summer nights that lasted until dawn
Here's to the memories, everyone's a part of me
Oh, I loved 'em every one

Big, little or short or tall, wish I could've kept them all
I loved 'em every one
Like to thank 'em for their charms, holdin' me in their arms
And I hope they had some fun

Big, little or short or tall, wish I could've kept them all
I loved 'em every one
Like to thank 'em for their charms, holdin' me in their arms
And I hope they had some fun


2.Do You Wanna Go to Heaven

Lyricist:Kenneth Eugene Jones, Claude Putman Jr.

It was the hottest day of August
All of us were down by the banks of the Paint Rock River
I was next in line to be baptized at the innocent age of ten
And I'll never forget, I remember it yet, the taste of that
clear, pure water
And that preacher's words still fill my head and I hear them now
and then

He said, â½Do you wanna go to heaven?'
And I said, 'Yeah, just lead me on'
â½Take my hand, can you feel that feelin'?â
And I said, â½Yeah just lead me onâ

It was the hottest night of summer
And our final high school dance were just about over
I was old enough for the taste of love when boys turn into men
And I'll never forget, I remember it yet, the taste of that
clear, pure water
But the preacher's words I've barely heard, as sweet Bonnie Lou
gave in

She said, â½Do you wanna go to heaven?'
And I said, 'Yeah, just lead me on'
â½Take my hand, can you feel that feelin'?â
And I said, â½Yeah just lead me onâ

It was a lonely night in August
She was sittin' at the end of the bar when I saw her
And with the little wine and a little time she would be a prize
to win
Now I'll never forget, I remember it yet, the taste of that
clear, pure water
But that preacher's words could not be heard
Wen she whispered, come on in

She said, â½Do you wanna go to heaven?'
And I said, 'Yeah, just lead me on'
â½Take my hand, can you feel that feelin'?â
And I said, â½Yeah just lead me onâ

She said, â½Do you wanna go to heaven?'
And I said, 'Yeah, just lead me on'
â½Take my hand, can you feel that feelin'?â
And I said, â½Yeah just lead me onâ

She said, â½Do you wanna go to heaven?'


3.One For The Money

Lyricist:Buck Moore, Mentor Williams

He said, 'I'm sorry I have to cancel the plans we made
I got a weekend business trip bound to LA'
She drives him to the airport

And watches till he boards the plane
Then she hurries to a phone booth
And across town the telephone rings

She's got one for the money
Two for the show
One to pay for the credit cards
And two to rock 'n roll

One gave her the wedding ring
The new car that she drives
But two gives her the feeling she needs
That one's money can't buy

Now she arrives at the honky tonk
Just a little bit late
Parks her Mercedes 'round back
'Cause her name's on the license plate

She steps into another life
As she walks through the door
Then she melts into his arms
As they dance out across the floor

And she's got one for the money
Two for the show
One to pay for the credit cards
And two to rock 'n roll

One gave her a wedding ring
The new car that she drives
But two gives her the feeling she needs
That one's money can't buy

Another wild lover's weekend
Ends too soon
And when they open up the blinds
It's Sunday afternoon

She wishes it could last forever
And he's beggin' her to stay
But she's got to pull herself together
'Cause there's a plane coming in from LA

And she's got one for the money
Two for the show
One to pay for the credit cards
And two to rock 'n roll

One gave her the wedding ring
The new car that she drives
But two gives her the feeling she needs
That one's money can't buy

She's got one for the money
And you know two for the show
One to pay for the credit cards
And two to rock 'n roll

One gave her the wedding ring
The new car that she drives
But two gives her the feeling she needs
That one's money can't


4.Faking Love

Lyricist:M Berg, B Braddock

You turn down the covers
I'll turn down the lights
As we turn to each other
There's no turning back tonight

I lay on I love you
And you lay on your charms
As we lie here
In each other's arms

Faking love, faking love
Only temporary lovers
As we lie here to each other
We're just faking love

You put on the coffee
I'll put on a smile
We'll put each other on
And laugh and talk a little while

There's no use in crying
For a feeling that's all gone
We both knew we were lying
All along

Faking love, faking love
Only temporary lovers
As we lie here to each other
We're just faking love

Faking love, faking love
Only temporary lovers
As we lie here to each other
We're just faking love

We're just faking love


5.Smooth Sailin'

Lyricist:Claude Putman Jr., Sonny Throckmorton

We got smooth sailin', sailin'
Looks like every drop of rain is gone, gone, gone
Smooth sailin', sailin'
And a blue sky full of rainbows from now on

We didn't break apart in stormy weather
We didn't run aground like others do
Now we're not afraid when storm clouds gather
We got the kind of love to see us through

We got smooth sailin', sailin'
Looks like every drop of rain is gone, gone, gone
Smooth sailin', sailin'
And a blue sky full of rainbows from now on

Found each others arms in troubled waters
Found that that's the safest place to go
From now on we can laugh at troubled waters
'Cause the roughest storms just seem to make love grow

We got smooth sailin', sailin'
Looks like every drop of rain is gone, gone, gone
Smooth sailin', sailin'
And a blue sky full of rainbows from now on

We got smooth sailin', sailin'
Looks like every drop of rain is gone, gone, gone
Smooth sailin', sailin'
And a blue sky full of rainbows from now on

We got smooth sailin', sailin'
Looks like every drop of rain is gone, gone, gone
Smooth sailin', sailin'
And a blue sky full of rainbows from now on

We got smooth sailin', sailin'
Looks like every drop of rain is gone, gone, gone
Smooth


6.Last Cheater's Waltz

Lyricist:Sonny Throckmorton

She's was going to pieces, he walked in the door
She just had to see him, she can't wait no more
Tonight he'll be with her no matter the cost
As the band plays the Last Cheater's Waltz

He tells her he loves her as the music plays on
He tells her he needs her but someone's at home
The ball game's all over and she knows she's lost
As the band plays the Last Cheater's Waltz

And, ooh, ooh, ooh, don't they sound lonely?
And, ooh, ooh, ooh, don't they play sad?
And, ooh, ooh, ooh, three quarter only
Watch how he holds her as they dance to the Last Cheater's Waltz

And, ooh, ooh, ooh, don't they sound lonely?
And, ooh, ooh, ooh, don't they play sad?
And, ooh, ooh, ooh, three quarter only
Watch how he holds her as they dance to the Last Cheater's Waltz


7.War Is Hell (On the Homefront Too)

Lyricist:Jones Bucky E, Putman Claude (jun), Wilson Dan Burton Jr

It was July hot in Georgia in 1942
All the men were off to war and the woman had nothing to do
I was sixteen and hungry looking for my first taste of love
When I brought the groceries to the door I didn't know how close
I was

Her long blond hair was flowing and she smelled like sweet
perfume
When I laid her groceries down she said you don't have to leave
so soon
A woman sure gets lonely when a men gone off to fight
She reached up for my trembling hand as tear drops filled her
eyes
Then she said

War is hell on the home front too
God only knows what a woman goes though
She still needs what a man that's gone can't do
I can't fight this fire along
Stay with me until it's gone
Ooh war is hell on the home front too

It was July hot in side me as she lead me to the bed room door
With satin sheets and pleasure I never knew I could feel before
My first taste of lovin' was everything it should have been
When a woman's fighting loneliness it's a battle she can't win

I'll always remember what she did and what she said
But the one thing I remember most was
The way she turned his picture over
Face bound on the table by her bed and now she says

War is hell on the home front too
God only knows what a woman goes though
She still needs what a man that's gone can't do
I can't fight this fire along
Stay with me until it's gone
Ooh war is hell on the home front too

War is hell on the home front too
God only knows what a woman goes though
She still needs what a man that's gone can't do
I can't fight this fire along
Stay with me until it's gone
Ooh war is hell on the home front too

War is hell on the home front too
God only knows what a woman goes though
She still needs what a man that's gone can't do
I can't fight this fire along
Stay with me until it's gone
Ooh war is hell on the home front too


8.I'll Be Coming Back For More

I've had girls and I've had women
You weren't the first
You probably won't be the last
But lady, after last night's lovin'
I'll bet my soul, you're the best

You put your lips where they belong
You brought the love for my secret dreams
I've been held but never touched
You touch me now, I'll never be the same

Baby, I'll be coming back for more
Some night you'll find me at your door
You know just what a body's for
Now other loves just leave me bored

Last night you took away my breath
And babe, I still ain't found it yet
So you can know one thing's for sure
I'll be coming back for more

I know people stand between us
Someone loves me, someone loves you
But baby, now I've tasted heaven
There's nothin' else that I can do

Baby, I'll be coming back for more
Some night you'll find me at your door
You know just what a body's for
Now other loves just leave me bored

Last night you took away my breath
And babe, I ain't found it yet
So you can know one thing's for sure
I'll be coming back for more

Baby, I'll be coming back for more
Some night you'll find me at your door
You know just what a body's for
Now other loves just leave me bored
Last night you took away my breath


9.You Feel Good All Over

Honey, you feel good all over
Each part is so easy to touch
Oh, you feel good all over
And that's why I need you so much

When you're here by my side
With your arms open wide
Heaven is happening to me
I don't know where to start
Lord, I love every part
And I want everything that I see

Honey, you feel good all over
Each part is so easy to touch
Oh, you feel good all over
And that's why I need you so much

When you're holding my hand
I'm one hell of a man
When you kiss me, you set me on fire
You're easy to hold
From your head to your toes
And you fill me up with desire


10.Devil In A Bottle (1975)

TG Sheppard
And she knows (and she knows) the hell I'm going through
In this world (in this world) inside my head
There's a devil (there's a devil) in a bottle
And he wants to see me dead

I fall into her arms and she helps me with my clothes
Yeah she stays on with me cause she really knows
Cause I'm trying lord to find my freedom
By escaping to the only freedom I've ever known

And she knows (and she knows) the hell I'm going through
In this world (in this world) inside my head
There's a devil (there's a devil) in a bottle
And he wants to see me dead

There's a devil (there's a devil) in a bottle (in the bottle)
And he wants (and he wants) to see me dead
And it's killing her to see me die this way


11.Last Cheater's Waltz (1979)

TG Sheppard
He tells her he loves her and the music plays on
He tells her he needs her but someone's at home
The ballgames all over and she knows she's lost
As the band plays the last cheater's waltz

And ooo-hoo-ooo don't they sound lonely
And ooo-hoo-ooo don't they play sad
And ooo-hoo-ooo three chord of lonely
Watch how he holds her as they dance
To the last cheater's waltz


12.When Can We Do This Again (1978)

TG Sheppard
She said now when can we do this again
Oh tell me when can we do this again
I'll be so lonely I'll be hurting till then
So tell me when can we do this again

In a house out in the suburbs comes the youth of one more
working day
Dinners cooking in the kitchen and I just put one more beer away
I've just got to see her gotta find a way to slip away
She's burning up my memory and even now I can hear her say

She said now when can we do this again
Oh tell me when can we do this again
I'll be so lonely I'll be hurting till then
So tell me when can we do this again

When can we do this again
Oh tell me when can we do this again
I'll be so lonely I'll be hurting till then
So tell me when can we do this again


13.I LOved Them Every One (1981)

TG Sheppard
Some said they liked my smile others of them stayed a while
While others left me on the run
This is the only way only way I have to say
Mmm, I loved them everyone

Big, little, short or tall wish I had kept them all
Mmm I loved them everyone
Like to thank them for their charms and holding me in their arms
And I hope they had some fun

Here's to the ladies in saloons and living rooms
Summer nights that lasted until dawn
Here's to the memories everyone's a part of me
Oh I loved them everyone

Big, little, short or tall wish I had kept them all
Mmm I loved them everyone
Like to thank them for their charms and holding me in their arms
And I hope they had some fun

Big, little, short or tall wish I had kept them all
Mmm I loved them everyone
Like to thank them for their charms and holding me in their arms
And I hope they had some fun


14.War Is Hell On The Homefront (1982)

TG Sheppard
Her long blond hair was flowing and she smelled like sweet
perfume
When I laid the groceries down she said you don't have to leave
so soon
A woman sure gets lonely when her man goes off to fight
She reached out for my trembling hand as teardrops filled her
eyes then she said

War is hell on the homefront God only knows what a woman goes
through
She still needs what a man that's gone can't do
I can't fight this fire alone stay with me until it's gone
Oh war is hell on the homefront too

It was July hot inside me as she lead me to her bedroom door
The satin sheets and pleasures I never knew I could feel before
My first taste of loving was everything that it should have been
When a woman's fighting loneliness it's a battle she can't win

I'll always remember what she did and what she said
But the one thing that I'll remember most
Is the way she turned his picture over
Face down on the table by her bed then she said

War is hell on the homefront God only knows what a woman goes
through
She still needs what a man that's gone can't do
I can't fight this fire alone stay with me until it's gone
Oh war is hell on the homefront too

War is hell on the homefront God only knows what a woman goes
through
She still needs what a man that's gone can't do
I can't fight this fire alone stay with me until it's gone
Oh war is hell on the homefront too
