1.I Just Wish You Were Someone I Love
Lyricist：Larry Gatlin
I did not mean to mislead you
(I did, I did)
And I never intended that push come to shove
And I don't have one thing against you
(I don't, I don't)
I just wish you were someone I love
I thought I had fallen forever in love
The minute your red gingham dress hit the floor
But after I'd taken of all of your favors
The hungry inside of me cried out there's more
Don't misunderstand me, it's not that you're lacking
The fact is your beauty's what dreams are made of
I do not have one thing against you, sweet lady
I just wish you were someone I love
And I did not mean to mislead you
(I did, I did)
And I never intended that push come to shove
I don't have one thing against you
(I don't, I don't)
I just wish you were someone I love
I did not mean to mislead you
(I did, I did)
And I never intended that push come to shove
(I never)
I don't have one thing against you
(I don't, I don't)
I just wish you were someone I love
I did not mean to mislead you
(I did, I did)
And I never intended that push come to shove
(I never)
2.The Prodigal Son
Lyricist：Larry Gatlin
There was a young man who had the best of everything
He was the first born of a wealthy man
But he was not satisfied with the best of everything
So he took his possessions in his hand
He traveled far and wide and he tasted worldly pleasure
But deep inside, he was lonely without measure
He wound up in a pig pen, nearly dead
Then he raised his eyes toward Heaven and he said
â½I will arise and go back to my father's house
I will beg him to forgive me for the fool I've been
I will arise and go back to my father's house
I will gladly be a servant if he'll take me back againâ
I was a young man who had the best of everything
I was the first born of a hardworking man
But I was not satisfied with the best of everything
So I took my possessions in my hand
I traveled far and wide and I tasted worldly pleasure
But deep inside, I was lonely without measure
I wound up in Las Vegas, nearly dead
Then I raised my eyes toward Heaven and I said
â½I will arise and go back to my father's house
I will beg him to forgive me for the fool I've been
I will arise and go back to my father's house
I will gladly be a servant if he'll take me back againâ
So I did arise and go back to my father's house
I said, â½Father, I'm sick and tired of being aloneâ
So I did arise and go back to my father's house
And then he wrapped his arms around me
And said, â½Son, you're welcome homeâ
3.The Lady Takes The Cowboy Everytime
Lyricist：Larry Gatlin
Smooth talker
He thinks he'll be the one to walk her to his room
But for all of his schemin', he's only dreamin'
He might as well be gone
Because she's got her eyes on the dance floor
She's made up her mind
And the lady takes the cowboy every time
'Cause she's just dyin' to do the Texas 2-step
And she just can't wait to strut her stuff
Dancin' to the 'Cotton Eyed Joe'
So she'll come dancin' till the band stops playin'
At 2 in the mornin'
And still have time for one beer before she goes
Off with her 2-steppin' cowboy
She'll have time for one beer before they go
Tall and handsome
He thinks he'll probably land somewhere in her arms tonight
Well, he thinks he's cool but she thinks he's a fool
He might as well turn and go
Because she's got her eyes on the dance floor
She's made up her mind
And the lady takes the cowboy every time
'Cause she's just dyin' to do the Texas 2-step
And she just can't wait to strut her stuff
Dancin' to the 'Cotton Eyed Joe'
So she'll come dancin' till the band stops playin'
At 2 in the mornin'
And still have time for one beer before she goes
Off with her 2-steppin' cowboy
She'll have time for one beer before she goes
4.Talkin' To The Moon
Lyricist：Larry Gatlin
Well, I must be crazy but I keep on dreamin'
And prayin' you might be comin' back soon
Keep on hopin' for all the good it does me
Lord, I might as well be talkin' to the moon
Well, I keep on thinkin' that maybe
Baby, you might be changin' your tune
Well, I keep on hopin' for all the good it does me
Lord, I might as well be talkin' to the moon
'Cause the moon don't seem to answer like it used to
Back years ago, we'd talk for hours at a time
And you don't seem to love me like you used to
That long ago, when you were mine, when you were mine
I keep on thinkin' that someday
Some way you might be changin' your tune
I keep on hopin' for all the good it does me
Lord, I might as well be talkin' to the moon
(Crazy, dreamin', prayin')
Well, I keep on hopin' for all the good it does me
Lord, I might as well be talkin' to the moon
Well, I might be crazy
(Well, I might be crazy)
Keep on dreamin'
(Keep on dreamin')
And prayin'
(Prayin')
You might be comin' back soon
But I keep on hopin'
(I keep on hopin')
For all the good it does me
Lord, I might as well be talkin' to the moon
Well, I keep on thinkin' that maybe
Baby, you might be changin' your tune
Well, I keep on hopin'
(I keep on hopin')
For all the good it does me
5.Take Me To Your Lovin' Place
Lyricist：Larry Gatlin
Take me to your lovin' place, take me right now
With your lovin' touch erase every line that's written on my
brow
Take me in your lovin' arms, I pray that you would
May not be forever more, it will be for good
Don't ask me to give you forever
Forever is one thing I ain't got to give
Worryin' about forever makes for dyin' slow
And lady, I'm just dyin' to live
I ain't got no room for no prophet of doom
Tryin' to scare me out of my mind
'Cause my future is in much bigger hands than mine
So lady, let's live while it's time
Take me to your lovin' place, take me right now
With your lovin' touch erase every line that's written on my
brow
Take me in your lovin' arms, I pray that you would
May not be forever more, it will be for good
Take me to your lovin' place, take me right now
Take me to your lovin' place, take me right now
6.Denver
Lyricist：Larry Gatlin
We pulled into Denver, as the sun was lightin' up the Rockies
Checked into a cheap hotel and fell asleep, holdin' each other
close
We just knew in our hearts this had to be a new beginning
Well, I guess it goes to show you just how li'l some people know
The first year in Denver, we were as happy as we could be
The good times I remember, we loved and heard, and heard lovin'
free
But then she dropped me in Denver, so I know I had at least a
mile to fall
Is there life after Denver？ Is there life after Colorado at all？
I crawled out of Denver, moved a little higher in the Rockies
Decided I would try my hand, pickin' up the pieces that she left
And Lord, it didn't take long to realize that higher ain't
always better
And it's awful cold and lonely when you're king of the mountain
All by yourself
The first year in Denver, we were as happy as we could be
The good times I remember, we loved and heard and heard lovin'
free
But then she dropped me in Denver, so I know I had at least a
mile to fall
Is there life after Denver？ Is there life after Colorado at all？
Lord, is there life after Denver？ Is there life after loving her
at all？
7.She Used To Be Somebody's Baby
Lyricist：Larry Gatlin
She used to be some, somebody's baby
Used to be some, somebody's girl
She used to be some, somebody's lady
She used to be some, somebody's world
And before you start actin' like the king of the mountain
You'd better hear one thing, Jack
Somebody wants her back
(Somebody wants her)
Yeah, somebody wants her back
(Somebody really wants her)
Uh huh, somebody wants her back
(Somebody wants her back)
Yeah, somebody wants her back
She used to be some, somebody's baby
Somebody's girl
She used to be some, somebody's lady
She used to be some, somebody's world
And before you start actin' like the king of the mountain
You'd better hear one thing, Jack
Somebody wants her back
(Somebody wants her)
Uh huh, somebody wants her back
(Somebody really wants her)
Yeah yeah, somebody wants her back
(Somebody wants her back)
Uh huh, somebody wants her back
You came in like a thief in the night
And stole her right out of my hands
I didn't even see you comin' until you were gone
I had it figured right down to the letter
But you never figured into my plans
But everything's a-gonna be different from now on
She used to be some, somebody's baby
Somebody's girl
She used to be some, somebody's lady
She used to be some, somebody's world
And before you start actin' like the king of the mountain
You'd better hear one thing, Jack
Somebody wants her back
(Somebody wants her)
Uh huh, somebody wants her back
(Somebody really wants her)
Yeah yeah, somebody wants her back
(Somebody wants her back)
Uh huh, somebody wants her back
Better not be spendin' a lot o' your time hangin' out downtown
Better be takin' care of business back at home
You better start lookin' over your shoulder
'Cause I might be gainin' ground
'Cause I'm gonna get right back what was my own, my own
'Cause she used to be some, somebody's baby
Somebody's girl
She used to be some, somebody's lady
She used to be some, somebody's world
And before you start actin' like the king of the mountain
You'd better hear one thing, Jack
Somebody wants her back
(Somebody wants her)
Uh huh, somebody wants her back
(Somebody really wants her)
Somebody wants her back
(Somebody wants her back)
Somebody wants her back
(Somebody wants her)
Oh yeah, somebody wants her back
(Somebody really wants her)
Uh huh, somebody wants her back
(Somebody really wants her)
Yeah yeah, somebody wants her back
(Somebody wants her back)
Uh huh, somebody wants her back
8.What Are We Doin' Lonesome
Lyricist：Larry Gatlin
We both look like grownups to me
And we both look like we're both in need of a little bit of
company
Since we both look like we both know what to do
What are we doin' lonesome？ What are we doin' blue？
What are we doin' blue？
I came in here to kill a little time
Maybe find a heartbeat, some of a vital sign
To make sure we're still livin' after all
After the fall
We shared a drink and a little bit of conversation
What we're feelin' now really don't need no explanation
Since we both look like we both know what to do
What are we doin' lonesome？ What are we doin' blue？
(Why are we still blue)
What are we doin' blue？
'Cause we both look like grownups to me
And we both look like we're both in need of a little bit of
company
Since we both look like we both know what to do
What are we doin' lonesome？ What are we doin' blue？
(Why are we still blue)
What are we doin' blue？
9.Sure Feels Like Love
Lyricist：Larry Gatlin
Sure feels like love, the best I remember
Sure feels like love, the best I recall
It's so good, it feels like the first time I reached out
And really went for it all
Sure feels like love, 'cause I don't remember
The last time that love felt this strong
So you're either gonna have to stop what you're doin' to me
right now
Or you're gonna have to keep doin' it all night long
You're drivin' me crazy and you may even try
I know you're a lady, there's no way of denyin'
I don't remember the last time love felt this strong
So you're either gonna have to stop what you're doin' to me
right now
Or you're gonna have to keep doin' it all night long
Sure feels like love, the best I remember
Sure feels like love, the best I recall
It's so good, it feels like the first time I reached out
And really went for it all
Sure feels like love, 'cause I don't remember
The last time that love felt this strong
So you're either gonna have to stop what you're doin' to me
right now
Or you're gonna have to keep doin' it all night long
You're either gonna have to stop what you're doin' to me right
now
Or you're gonna have to keep doin' it all night long
10.Houston (Means I'm One Day Closer To You)
Lyricist：Larry Gatlin
Houston, Houston means
That I'm one day closer to you, oh honey
Houston, Houston means
The last day of the tour and we're through
Well honey, you and God in heaven above
Know I love what I do for a living, I do
Ah, but Houston, Houston means

Yeah, singing at the world's biggest rodeo show
Was a great time for me and the guys

Sure makes a cowboy blue
But here I am in Houston
And I'm one day closer to you

11.Love Of A Lifetime
Lyricist：Larry Gatlin
If you never come to me again
I've had the love of a lifetime and I've had a best friend
The hours that I've spent with you
Are the best I've ever spent
Even if you never come to me again
'Cause you are my love of a lifetime, lady
You are the best any man can do
Yeah, you are my love of a lifetime, lady
And if you never come to me again
I'll still be lovin' you, I'll still be lovin' you
And if you never sleep here in my arms again
I've had the love of a lifetime and I've had a best friend
It's not that I wouldn't mind losin' you
It's just that you taught me to win
Even if you never sleep in my arms again
'Cause you are the love of a lifetime, lady
You are the best any man can do

12.I Don't Wanna Cry
Lyricist：Larry Gatlin
I don't wanna cry this early this mornin'
But cry I will if you go through with me, with me alone
I don't wanna cry this early this mornin'
So lay back down and love me and leave the leavin' till later on
I don't wanna think about tomorrow
Lord knows, I got my hands full just worryin' about today
If it's true that God sees every sparrow when it falls
I hope He'll see me fallin' if you up and walk away
'Cause I don't wanna cry this early this mornin'
But cry I will if you go through with me, with me alone
I don't wanna cry this early this mornin'
So lay back down and love me and leave the leavin' till later on
So lay back down and love me and leave the leavin' till later on
I don't wanna cry
