Big Bad Bill (is Sweet William Now) 03:33
lyrics
buy track
Well, I went down yonder in Louisville Lived a cat named Big Bad Bill I wants ta tell ya Ah, the cat was rough and tough he would strut his stuff Had the whole town scared to death When he walked by, they all held their breath He's a fightin' man, sure enough And then Bill got himself a wife, now he leads a different life Big Bad Bill is Sweet William now Married life done changed him somehow He's the man the town used to fear Now they all call him Sweet Papa Willy Dear Stronger than Sampson I declare Till a brown-skinned woman's bobbed his hair Big Bad Bill don't fight anymore (No, no, no) He's doin' the dishes an' moppin' up that floor (Yes he is) Well he used to go out drinkin' lookin' for a fight Now he gotta see that sweet woman every night Big Bad Bill is Sweet William now Aw, play it boys Aw, yeah! Who! I likes that, yeah ("Yeah, " say I) Ah, why-well, Big Bad Bill don't fight anymore (No, he don't) He's doin' the dishes 'n moppin' up that floor (Yes he is) Well he used to go out drinkin' lookin' for a fight Now he gotta see that sweet woman every night Big Bad Bill is Sweet William now (Doin' the dishes) Big Bad Bill is Sweet William now (Moppin' up that floor!) Big Bad Bill is Sweet William now

I don't care if Monday's blue Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too Thursday I don't care about you It's Friday I'm in love Monday you can fall apart Tuesday Wednesday break my heart Oh, Thursday doesn't even start It's Friday I'm in love Saturday wait And Sunday always comes too late But Friday never hesitate I don't care if Monday's black Tuesday, Wednesday heart attack Thursday never looking back It's Friday I'm in love Monday you can hold your head Tuesday, Wednesday stay in bed Or Thursday watch the walls instead It's Friday I'm in love Saturday wait And Sunday always comes too late But Friday never hesitate Dressed up to the eyes It's a wonderful surprise To see your shoes and your spirits rise Throwing out your frown And just smiling at the sound And as sleek as a shriek Spinning round and round Always take a big bite It's such a gorgeous sight To see you in the middle of the night You can never get enough Enough of this stuff It's Friday I'm in love I don't care if Monday's blue Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too Thursday I don't care about you It's Friday I'm in love Monday you can fall apart Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart Thursday doesn't even start It's Friday I'm in love

Honey Pie 02:16
lyrics
buy track
She was a working girl North of England way Now she's hit the big time In the U.S.A. And if she could only hear me This is what I'd say. Honey pie, you are making me crazy I'm in love but I'm lazy So won't you please come home. Oh honey pie, my position is tragic Come and show me the magic Of your Hollywood song. You became a legend of the silver screen And now the thought of meeting you Makes me weak in the knee. Oh honey pie, you are driving me frantic Sail across the Atlantic To be where you belong. Will the wind that blew her boat Across the sea Kindly send her sailing back to me. Honey pie, you are making me crazy I'm in love but I'm lazy So won't you please come home.

Heart of Gold 03:08
lyrics

I want to live, I want to give I've been a miner for a heart of gold It's these expressions I never give That keep me searchin' for a heart of gold And I'm getting old Keep me searchin' for a heart of gold And I'm getting old I've been to Hollywood, I've been to Redwood I crossed the ocean for a heart of gold I've been in my mind, it's such a fine line That keeps me searchin' for a heart of gold And I'm getting old Keeps me searchin' for a heart of gold And I'm getting old Keep me searchin' for a heart of gold You keep me searchin' And I'm growing old Keep me searchin' for a heart of gold I've been a miner for a heart of gold

Heard it in a Love Song 04:11
lyrics
buy track
I ain't never been with a woman long enough, for my boots to get old We've been together so long now they both need to be sewed If I ever settle down you'd be my kind And it's a good time for me to head on down the line Heard it in a love song Heard it in a love song Heard it in a love song Can't be wrong I'm the kinda man likes to get away Like to start dreamin' about tomorrow today Never said that I love you, even thought it's so Where's that duffle bag of mine it's time to go Heard it in a love song Heard it in a love song Heard it in a love song Can't be wrong I'm gona be leavin' at the break of dawn Wish you could come but I don't need no woman taggin' along So I'll sneak out that door couldn't stand to see you cry I'd stay another year if I saw a tear drop in your eye Heard it in a love song Heard it in a love song Heard it in a love song Can't be wrong I never had a damn thing but what I had I had to leave it behind You're the hardest thing I ever tried to get off my mind Always something greener on the other side of that hill I was born a wrangler and a rambler and I guess I always will Heard it in a love song Heard it in a love song Heard it in a love song Can't be wrong
