Hell High Water
By dickey betts
(c) 1980 emi blackwood music inc. and pangola publishing company
Weve been through hell and high water,
Ready to go through it all again.
As long as weve got a quarter between us all,
Were gonna have money to spend, oh.
Kicked down the doors in new orleans,
We got busted at grove hill where nobody goes,
And long bob drove us to the badlands,
You can bet your ass were gonna make it down to tomorrow nights show.
Chorus:
We took time by the horns,
Cryin out loud,
Stood there naked up there in front of the crowd,
Been a million miles,
On a lost highway,
They might name a street after us one of these days.
Oh, weve seen the good times, weve seen the bad.
Worse time we ever seen, is the best some folks ever had,
And the stone mowed us down, with a cold-hearted quill,

I Beg of You
I don't want my heart to be broken
cause it's the only one Ive got
So darling please be careful
You know I care a lot
Darling, please don't break my heart
I beg of you
I don't want no tears a fallin'
You know I hate to cry
But that's what's bound to happen
If you ever say goodbye
Darling, please don't say goodbye
I beg of you
Hold my hand and promise
That you'll always love me true
Make me know you love me
The same way I love you, little girl
Hold my hand and promise
That you'll always love me true
Make me know you love me
The same way I love you, little girl

One Way Out
Aint but one way out baby, lord I just cant go out the door.
Aint but one way out baby, and lord I just cant go out the door.
Cause theres a man down there, might be your man I dont know.
Lord you got me trapped woman, up on the second floor;
If I get by this time I wont be trapped no more.
So raise our window baby, I can ease out soft and slow.
And lord, your neighbors, no they wont be
Talking that stuff that they dont know.
Lord, Im foolish to be here in the first place,
I know some man gonna walk in and take my place.
Aint no way in the world, Im going out that front door
Cause theres a man down there, might be your man I dont know.
Cause theres a man down there, might be your man I dont know.
Cause theres a man down there,
Freely
Lord, it just might happen to be your man...
Lord, it just a might be your man,
Oh baby, I just dont know...

The Same Thing
Make a man go crazy, a woman wear her dress so tight
Make a man go crazy, a woman wear her dress so tight
Must be the same thing make a tom cat fight all night.
Make you feel so good when your baby get her evening gown
Make you feel so good when your baby get her evening gown
Must be the same thing make a preacher lay his Bible down.
Woah that same thing,
Woah that same thing,
Tell me who is to blame,
Whole world fighting about that same thing.
What makes all these men chase a big leg woman down,
What makes all these men chase a big leg woman down,
Must be the same thing make a poor dog a hurtin hound.
Woah that same thing,
Woah that same thing,
Tell me who is to blame,
Whole world fighting about that same thing.
Oh that same thing,
Woah that same thing,
Tell me who is to blame,

Need Your Love So Bad
Need your love so bad
John mertis
Fort knox music inc. (bmi) & trio music co. inc. (bmi)
I need someones hand to lead me through the night
Need someones arms, to love and squeeze me real tight.
And when the lights are low, when its time to go,
I need your love so bad.
I need some soft lips to hold so close to mine
Need someone to stand up and tell me when Im lyin
When the lights are low, and when its time to go,
I need your love so bad.
So give it up, and bring it on home to me.
Oh you can write it on a paper so it can be read to me.
Tell me you love me, stop drivin me mad,
Cause I need your love so bad.
I needed some voice, to take me through the night,
Dont you worry baby, I will not fuss and fight.
Well listen to my plea, now bring it on home to me,
Cause I need your love so bad.
Well, I need your love soooo bad.

Louisiana lou and three card monty john,
Oh lord, what a natural pair.

Watch the fastest hand youve ever seen.

Could be spoonful of diamonds
Could be spoonful of gold
But I want a spoon ot your precious love
To satisfy my soul
Chorus
Men lies about it
Some are wild about it
Some dies without it
Everythings right about spoonful
That spoon,that spoon,that spoonful
That spoon,that spoon,that spoonful
Could be spoonful of coffee
Could be spoonful of tea
But I want a spoon of your precious love
Thats good enough for me
Chorus
Men lies about it
Some are wild about it
Some dies without it
