Don't look at me with love in your eyes
Go look for someone that can make it worth while
I'm hurtin' from the love affair I didn't want to end
I'm in no condition to try to love again
Don't smile at me because it's no use I don't have a smile that I can give to you
Someday I might look you up but let me be till then
I'm in no condition to try to love again
I'm in no condition to try to love again
The girl I love just broke my heart and it must have time to mend
She gave me the breeze now she's gone with the wind
I'm in no condition to try to love again
[ ac.guitar ]
I'm in no condition to try to love again...
I'm in no condition to try to love again

This is just another town that I painted
You're just another girl that were not too well equated
I'm a drifter at this time and we parted oh but why am I so heavy hearted
It's just another town on the highway
Just like a thousand others I passed her goin' my way
I just came to say goodbye why do I wanna cry after all it's just another town
That's just another door why can't I open it and go
If I told you what's in my heart I'm sure that you'd say no
It's just another town that won't miss me
You're just another girl that was kind enough to kiss me
My mind says walk away why does my heart say stay
After all it's just another town after all it's just another town

I thought I'd like to leave the black side of life for a while
To live alone and have some fun
So I told her to take the kids and go back to her ma
That's how I wanted it to be and I felt satisfied it was over and done
I wake up every morning make myself a cup of jay
Down to the factory that's where I spend my pay
Five o'clock the whistle blows and that leaves the evening free
That's how I wanted it to be

Well it didn't take me long to find out just how much I missed her
So I wrote and told her to take the kids and come on back home
Cause I was ready to settle down now
Well you see I just got her letter today
And it seems she's found someone she can depend on
That's how I wanted it to be she ain't coming home no more
I wake up every morning...

The Moods Of Mary

[No lyrics]

. . .


There's a time to laugh and there's a time to cry
There's a time to live and love but my love for you has died
I just don't want you anymore although you've done your part
I can love you out of sympathy I'm gonna break your heart
I always kinda like you dear and your cute little ways
But I never meant for you to fall in love with me this way
I should have never let you on and drag your love this far
I'm sorry dear don't waste your tears I'm gonna break your heart
The time to laugh is over and the time to cry has come
But we shared a lot of good times I've thought we had a lot of fun
I've stayed as long as I'm goin' to now I've just got to go
But darling before I do there's something I want you to know
I tried to make you happy dear I tried to do my part
But love just died go on and cry I'm gonna break your heart
But love just died go on and cry I'm gonna break your heart

Well it's over yes it's finished that's what they tell me
The judge just signed the papers at his desk
Well it's over and it's finished so they tell me but oh what a heck of a mess
There stands my daughter and my son she's just three he's only one
They don't seem to understand why mommy's standing with another man
Well it's over and it's finished guess I'll move to a new address
But oh what a heck of a mess
[ steel ]
There stands my daughter and my son...
But oh what a heck of a mess

. . .


No I can't take it no longer I'm goin' out of my mind
Baby since you been goner you know I cry all the time
I'm gonna crawl right back to you on my knees
Cryin' take me back please baby please please please
I can't take it no longer I got to be in your arms
You know it really is a wonder I ain't in the funny farm
Cause the sun ain't shinin' and it's nine eight degrees
But I'm shiverin' and shakin' and bout to freeze
I can't take it no longer I can't take it no longer
[ steel ]
I ain't gonna pay no attention to my pride
Cause without your sweet love I get to be tired
I can't take it no longer I'm goin' out of my mind
Baby since you been goner you know I cry all the time
I'm gonna crawl right back to you on my knees
Cryin' take me back please baby please please please
I can't take it no longer I can't take it no longer
I can't take it no longer I can't take it no longer

. . .


I'm nobody's child I'm nobody's child I'm like a flower just growing wild
There's no mommy's kisses and no daddy's smiles
Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child

I was slowly passin' an orphan's home one day
And stop there for a moment just to watch the children play
Alone a boy was standin' and when I asked him why
He turned his eyes that couldn't see and he began to cry
People come for children and take them for their own
But they all seem to pass me by and leave me all alone
I know they'd like to take me but when they see that I'm blind
They always take some other child and I'm left behind
I'm nobody's child...

No mother's arms to hold me or soothe me when I cry
Sometimes it gets so lonely here I wish I could die
I walk the streets of heaven where all the blinds can see
And just like for the other kids there'd be a home for me
No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smiles nobody wants me I'm nobody's child

Next Best Thing To Nothing

[No lyrics]

Like the prairie breeze you go where you please ridin' trails that lead to nowhere
There's places to grow roots but your restless boots never seem to want to go there
Kiowa Jones Kiowa Jones
But no man can lead his life without a reason for his bein'
Your world's such drifter's world but there's another world that's more worth seein'
Kiowa Jones Kiowa Jones
[ whistle ]
But no man can lead his life...
Kiowa Jones Kiowa Jones
