Tonight The Heartache's On Me
by Mary Francis, Johnny MacRae,Bob Morrison
You could've heard a pin drop
When they walked through the door
I had to turn my eyes away
My heart fell to the floor
Someone whispered, "Where's her halo?"
'Cause she had an angel's face
He stood there smiling holding on
to the one who took my place
Chorus
So Tonight the heartache's on me
Let's drink a toast to the fool who couldn't see
Bartender, pour the wine 'cause the hurtin's all mine
Tonight the heartache's on me
I wonder if he told her
She's the best he's ever known
The way he told me ev'ry night
When we were all alone
She'll find out when the new wears off
He'll find somebody new
She'll learn what heartache's all about
And what I'm goin' through
Chorus
Bad Loser
by Bill Lloyd, Pam Tillis
You're bringing out a side of me
I never knew was there
I took pride in cut 'n dry goodbyes
I never wasted a tear
Living in an easy come, easy go world
Look what you've done to this girl
Chorus 1
I'm a bad loser when love's worth fightin' for
I'm a bad loser, don't wanna ever see you
Walkin' out my door
This love of ours just took me by surprise
It wasn't part of my plans
Ain't it easy sittin' on the fence?
Ain't it hard to take a stand?
You've took me farther than I've ever been
Baby, now I'm playin' to win
Chorus 2
I'm a bad loser, it's something I can't control
I'm a bad loser, I just don't know...
Know if I can let you go
Bridge
I'm good at hangin' when the goin' gets tough
Real good at ridin' when the road is rough
But I'm not perfect baby,
You're gonna see
After what love's done to me
Repeat Chorus 2

Too Gone To Care
by John Scott Sherrill
You see that big old yellow cab
Is always just a call away
And you can catch a Greyhound
Just about any time of day
And all along the harbor ships are
Slipping out of town
And way out on the runway
Well that's where the rubber leaves the ground
Chorus
She keeps thinking that it's too hard to fake it
When it isn't there
He's gonna tell her he'll be to late to make it
But she'll be too gone to care
They got trains down at the station
You know they run all night
And they got tail lights on the highway
That just keep fading out of sight
And there's a boat out on the river
Goin' with the flow
And if all else fails there's always
Rubber on the road

Why Can't I Stop Loving You
by Michael Henderson, Wally Wilson
I've put away all the pictures
All the old love letters too
There's nothin' left here to remind me
Why can't I stop loving you?
Got back into circulation
"Till I found somebody new
But there was always something missing
Why can't I stop lovin' you
Bridge
I can hold back the teardrops
I can smile through the pain
But the one thing I can't stop
Is the echo of your name
Honey why can't we talk it over
There must be something we could do
So my heart won't have to wonder
Why can't I stop loving you

Whiskey, Lies And Tears
by Joy Lynn White, Sam Hogin, Ted Lindsay
I used to love the way you call me baby
But now baby just don't sound the same
And I don't see it gettin' any better
With the whiskey, your lies and my tears
Chorus
Well I've almost gone insane
Tryin' to put up with the pain
What a fool I was to think you'd ever change
I know now love can't win
It's got no chance against
All the whiskey, your lies and my tears
The last time I said next time is the last time
And the last time came stumblin' in last night
So now it's time to say goodbye forever
To the whiskey, your lies and my tears

Wild Love
by Dennis Linde
You look so out of place in this little country bar
Don't know the circumstances but here you are
Go on and run but you won't get too far
'Cause you can't escape my wild love
I work six days a week waitin' tables here
Always dreamin' someone like you would appear
Now that I've found you let me make it clear
That you can't escape my wild love
Bridge
Somehow you ended up on the wrong side of the tracks
Now that I've got you here, boy, there ain't no turnin' back
solo
We're gonna party till the sun comes up
I'll ride you in my hot pink pick-up truck
If you've got other plans then you're just out of luck
'Cause you can't escape my wild love
solo
solo
Bridge
Once your big brown eyes adjust to this soft blue neon light
You'll clearly see the one who's gonna rock your world tonight
We're gonna party till the sun comes up
I'll ride you in my hot pink pick-up truck
If you've got other plans then you're just out of luck
'Cause you can't escape my wild love
No, honey, you can't escape my wild love

Burning Memories
by Pat McLaughlin, Duke Merrick
I light up my lantern for another night
This old heart of mine ain't feeling right
Seems like all old lovers get to be bad news
The ones you finally learn to love you turn around and lose
Chorus
Burnin' memories to feel the flame
Of a love grown cold - no one to blame
Wishful thinking things were still the same
I'm burning memories to feel the flame
Outside my window in a blue streetlight
A couple slowly walking home and holdin' tight
My arms are aching but it's not my turn
There's just a few more memories I've left to burn
Repeat Chorus

On And On And On
by Bill Anderson
All good things come to an end
Guess that means we'll never love again
The end of our love, the end of my dreams
The end of almost everything it seems
Except these heartaches, these teardrops
And this loneliness goes on and on and on
On and on and on as if there were no tomorrow
As if the night had come to stay and there would be no dawn
Love has stopped, time has stopped
Everything on this earth has stopped
Except these heartaches, these teardrops
And this loneliness goes on and on and on

You Were Right From Your Side
by Jim Rushing
Starin' out an airport window on a morning hard as stone
Watchin' a big Delta bird taxi through the dawn
A lonely chill sweeps over me as that smoking liner climbs
You were right from your side, I was left from mine
Chorus
Now you're gone you're flying high above the clouds
And I must walk my tears through this faceless crowd
And in the good-bye atmosphere I can hear a thousand times
You were right from your side, I was left from mine
You were a slave to freedom to the highway and the song
My idea of freedom was wanting to belong
I was looking for a story, Lord, not just some old line
You were right from your side, I was left from mine
Repeat Chorus
Tag
Oh you were right from your side I was left from mine

I Am Just A Rebel
by Bob DiPiero, John Scott Sherrill, Dennis Robbins
I am just a rebel, that's what I am
I can raise the devil with a five piece band
I got two fists of iron, I got a heart of gold
I just have a hard time doin' what I'm told
Chorus
Bein' a hillbilly don't get me down
I like it like that
In fact, you know it makes me proud
Yeah, I'm American made by my ma and pa
Southern born by the grace of God
And I'm bound to be a rebel
Till they put me in the ground
I am just a rebel, can't you see
Don't go lookin' for trouble, it just finds me
When I'm walkin' down the street, people stop and stare
I know they're talkin' about me
They say "there goes a rebel there."
Repeat Chorus
Tag
Yeah, I'm bound to be a rebel
Till they put me in the cold, cold ground
