T-BONE SHUFFLE
Let your hair down baby,
Let's have a natural ball
Let your hair down woman,
Let's have a natural ball
‘Cause if you ain’t happy,
Can’t have no fun at all.

Well you can't take it with you,
That's one thing for sure.
Oh. you can't take it with you,
That's one thing for sure.
There's nothing wrong with you,
That a good T-Bone shuffle can't cure.

Have fun while you can,
Fate's an aweful thing.
Have fun while you can,
Fate's an aweful thing.
You can't tell what might happen,
That's why I love to sing

Let your hair down woman,
Let's have a natural ball
Let your hair down baby,
Let's have a natural ball
Well if you ain’t happy,
We can’t have no fun at all

Well you can't take it with you,
That's one thing for sure.
Oh. you can't take it with you,
That's one thing for sure.
There's nothing wrong with you,
That a good T-Bone shuffle can't cure

Have fun while you can,
Fate's an aweful thing.
Have fun while you can,
Fate's an aweful thing.
You can't tell what might happen,
That's why I love to sing

FURTHER ON UP THE ROAD
Further on up the road
Someone's gonna hurt you like you hurt me
Further on up the road
Someone's gonna hurt you like you hurt me
Further on up the road,
Oh baby, just you wait and see.

You gotta reap just what you sow
That old saying is true
You gotta reap just what you sow
That old saying is true
Just like you treat somebody,
Somebody’s gonna mistreat you.

And now you’re laughing, pretty baby,
Someday you're gonna be crying
Now you’re laughing, pretty baby,
Some someday you're gonna be crying
Further on up the road
You'll find out I wasn't lying
Ooooh

Further on up the road
When you're all alone and blue
Further on up the road
When you're all alone and blue
You’re gonna ask me to take you back baby
But I’ll have somebody new

Bell has tolled, my baby caught that train and gone
Well It’s all my fault, I must have did somebody wrong

Everything that happens, you know I am to blame

Gonna find myself a doctor, maybe bad luck could change

LAST NIGHT
Last night I lost the best friend I ever had
Last night I lost the best friend I ever had
Now she gone and left me, that makes me feel so bad

Now it's early in the morning and my love is comin' down for you
I’ll see is early in the morning and my love is coming down for you
I want you to tell me baby, baby what are we gonna do

I’ll gonna wait for tomorrow, they tell me every day brings 'bout a change
I’m gonna wait for tomorrow, they tell me every day brings 'bout a change
Well I love you, love you baby, don't you know that's a cryin' shame

MAYBELLENE
Maybellene, why can't you be true
Oh Maybellene , why can't you be true
You have started back doin' the things you used to do

As I was motivatin' over the hill
I saw Mabellene in a Coup de Ville
A Cadillac rollin' on the open road
Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford
The Cadillac doin' about ninety-five
Bumper to bumper, rollin' side by side
Maybellene, why can't you be true
Oh Maybellene , why can't you be true
You have started back doin' the things you used to do

The Cadillac pulled up ahead of the Ford
The Ford got hot and wouldn't do no more
It then got cloudy and started to rain
I tooted my horn for a passin' lane
The rainwater blowin' all under my hood
I know that I was doin' my motor good
Maybellene, why can't you be true
Oh Maybellene , why can't you be true
You have started back doin' the things you used to do
Yeah

Maybellene, why can't you be true
Oh Maybellene , why can't you be true
You have started back doin' the things you used to do

The motor cooled down the heat went down
And that's when I heard that highway sound
The Cadillac asittin' like a ton of lead
A hundred and ten half a mile ahead
The Cadillac lookin' like it's sittin' still
And I caught Mabellene at the top of the hill
Maybellene, why can't you be true
Oh Maybellene , why can't you be true
You have started back doin' the things you used to do

BRIGHT LIGHTS, BIG CITY
Bright lights, big city
Went to my baby's head
Oh, bright lights, big city
Went to my baby's head

I'd tried to tell her moma
But she wouldn’t believe that I had said
It’s all right pretty baby
Yes gonna need my help some day
Oh, it's all right pretty baby
Yes gonna need my help some day
Well you wish you had to listened
To some of those things I said

Go ahead pretty baby
Honey knock yourself out
Oh, go ahead pretty baby
Honey knock yourself out
Well, I still love you baby
‘Cause you don't know what it's all about

Bright lights, big city
Went to my baby's head
Oh, bright lights, big city
Went to my baby's head
I'd tried to tell her woman
But she wouldn’t believe that I had said

I'd tried to tell her woman
But she wouldn’t believe that I had said

HONKY TONK

DUST MY BROOM
I'm gettin’ up in the mornin',
Believe I'll dust my broom
I'm gettin’ up soon in the mornin',
Believe I'll dust my broom
Gonna quit the best girl I’m lovin’,
And my friends can get my room

I'm gonna write a letter,
Telephone every town I know
I'm gonna write a letter,
Telephone every town I know
If I don’t find her in West Helena,
She be in East Monroe, I know

I don't want no woman,
Wants every downtown man she meets
I don't want no woman,
Wants every downtown man she meets
Man, she's a no good doney,
They shouldn't alow her on the street
Oh no

I believe, I believe my time ain't long
I believe, I believe my time ain't long
I’m gonna quit the best girl I’m lovin’
And break up my happy home

SHORT FAT FANNIE
I was slippin’ and slidin’ with a long tall Sally
Peekin' and a hidin',duck back in the alley
Don't wanna rip it up,don't wanna dance with Annie
I've got a brand new lover name is Short Fat Fannie

One day while I was fooling in the Heartbreak Hotel
Where I met Fannie and she sure looked swell
I told her that I loved her and I'd never leave
And she put her arms around me, and she gave me fever

She's my tutti fruiti,I love the child so
Watch me like a hound dog everywhere I go
Fanny is around about my p’s and g’s
And she might step on my blue suede shoes

Well at a honky tonk party just the other night
Fannie got jealous and she started a fight
Because I was dancin’ with MaryLou
I had to call Jim Dandy to the rescue

Short Fat Fannie is my heart’s desire
Short Fat Fannie sets my soul on fire
Monday we were married on Blueberry Hill
Now I’m so happy and I love her still

She's my big fat tutti fruiti, I love the child so
Watch me like a hound dog everywhere I go
When she is around about my p's and g's
She might step on my blue suede shoes

Well at a honky tonk party just the other night
Fannie got jealous and she started a fight
‘Cause at club I’s dancin with MaryLou
I had to call Jim Dandy to the rescue

Short Fat Fannie is my heart’s desire
Got the kind of lovin’ sets my soul on fire
Short Fat Fannie, I love you so
I’ll never let Short Fat Fannie go

COME BACK BABY
Oh come back, baby
Mama please dont go, yeah
The way I love you
Child you'll never know
Oh, come back baby,
Yeah, let's talk it over one more time
Oh now

Yes I admit, baby
That I was wrong, yeah
Oh, don't you know, baby
You’ve been gone too long
Well come back baby,
Lord, let's talk it over one more time
Oh now

Say If I could holler
Like a mountain jack
Oh, I’d go up on the mountain
Call my baby back
Oh, come back baby,
Lord, let's talk it over one more time
Oh now

Now one of these days, baby
And It won't be long,
You gonna look for me child
And I’ll be gone
Come back baby,
Lord. let's talk it over one more time
Oh now

Now one of these days, baby
And It won't be long,
You gonna look for me child
And I’ll be gone
Come back baby,
Lord. let's talk it over one more time
Oh now
