1.Do You Believe Me Now?

(Vern Gosdin)

Don't you think you should have called
To tell me you were coming down
Oh you look so out of place
On this troubled side of town
It's a place where losers go
When they know there's nothing left
And after losing you
I just lost the will to live
Do you believe me now
I told you time and time again
My heart and soul is in your hands
Do you believe me now?
Do you believe me now
Look at the living dying proof
I ain't nothing without you
Do you believe me now?
I don't know what changed your mind
I won't ask if this is real
I don't know if you're a dream
I just know how good it feels
If you could find it in your heart
To say the fire for me still burns
I'll find a place to turn around
Down this road of no return
Do you believe me now
I told you time and time again
My heart and soul is in your hands
Do you believe me now?
Do you believe me now
Look at the living dying proof
I ain't nothing without you
Do you believe me now?


2.Heartaches By The Number

(Dwight Yoakum)

Heartache number one was when you left me
I never knew that I could hurt this way
Heartache number two was when you came back again
You came back and never meant to stay
Now I've got heartaches by the numbers
Troubles by the score
Everyday you love me less
Each day I love you more
Now I've got heartaches by the numbers
A love that I can't win
But the day that I stop counting
That's the day my world will end
Heartache number three was when you called me
And told me you was coming home to stay
With a hoping heart I waited for your knock on the door
I waited but you must have lost your way
Now I've got heartaches by the numbers
Troubles by the score
Everyday you love me less
Each day I love you more
Now I've got heartaches by the numbers
A love that I can't win
But the day that I stop counting
That's the day my world will end
Oh the day that I stop counting
That's the day my world will end


3.Seven Spanish Angels

(Ray Price & Willie Nelson)

He looked down into the brown eyes
And said 'Say a prayer for me'
And she threw her arms around him
Whispered 'God will keep us free'
They could hear the riders coming
He said 'This is my last fight,
'If they take me back to Texas,
'They won't take me back alive'
There were seven Spanish angels
At the altar of the Sun
They were praying for the lovers
In the Valley of the Gun
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels
Took another angel home
She reached down and picked the gun up
That lay smoking in his hand
She said 'Father please forgive me,
'I can't make it without my man'
And she knew the gun was empty
And she knew she couldn't win
But her final prayer was answered
When the rifles fired again
There were seven Spanish angels
At the altar of the Sun
They were praying for the lovers
In the Valley of the Gun
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish angels
Took another angel home
There were seven Spanish angels (at the altar)
At the altar of the Sun (oh I believe)
They were praying for the lovers (yeah they was)
In the Valley of the Gun (well, well, well)
When the battle stopped and the smoke cleared (there was
thunder)
There was thunder from the throne (oh yeah)
And seven Spanish angels
Took another angel home


4.Somebody Lied

(Ricky Van Shelton)

Hello? Yeah, this is me
Lord it's been a long, long time
I know this ain't no social call
So go ahead, get it off your mind
You heard what? Well it ain't true
I was here most all last night
I got over you the day you left
Lord I'll bet somebody lied
They said what? That I was crying
I haven't shed a tear in years
That I spoke your name
Well that's insane
I hardly noticed you're not here
That I showed your picture
To some stranger
Don't you think I've got no pride
They've been here at home
Face down on shelf
Lord I'll bet somebody lied
But if they were true
What would it matter to you
Would it change the way you feel
If the rumers were right
Would you be here tonight
To help this old heart heal
Well don't worry
It wasn't me
Just someone whose world was torn in two
Someone who looks a lot like me
And loved someone like you
So forget the tears
I never cry
Lord I'll bet somebody lied


5.Wine-Colored Roses

(George Jones)

Today I got a long letter
From one who still cares for me
She asked lots of questions
Like would I call her sometime
And was I getting back on my feet
She asked if I had quit drinking
Like I promised her long ago
The words wouldn't come
When I called and she answered
Oh but I found a way to say no
I sent her some wine-colored roses
The color of grapes on the vine
When she sees the wine-colored roses
They'll tell her I'm still on the wine
The roses will say I still love her
Their color will cause her to cry
One dozen reasons to tell her I'm sorry
And twelve pretty flowers don't lie
I sent her some wine-colored roses
The color of grapes on the vine
When she sees the wine-colored roses
They'll tell her I'm still on the wine
