The Moon Is Full

I said the moon is full, I feel my love comin' down
I said the moon is full, I feel my love comin' down
You see I met this little girl, I don't think I'm gonna want to, want to, leave this town

All my friends call me crazy, you just don't know how I feel inside
All my friends call me crazy, you just don't know how I feel inside
You know I love this little girl, 'cause she's got the little pretty, pretty brown eyes

Gonna take that train in the mornin', I think I'm gonna go back home
Gonna catch that train in the mornin' y'all, I think I'm gonna go back home
And I know that my little girl know, oh that I won't be gone, I won't be gone 'till dawn

If I miss that train, I think I'm gonna to have to hitch-hike
If I miss that train in the mornin' y'all, I guess I'm gonna have to hitch-hike
And I'll let my little girl know, I'll just be gone, I'll be gone overnight

T-bone Shuffle

Let your hair down, baby, let's have a natural ball
Let your hair down, baby, let's have a natural ball
If you don't let your hair down, woman, we can't have no fun at all

Oh, and you can't take it wit' you, that's one thing for sure
Oh, and you can't take it wit' you, that's one thing for sure
There ain't nothin' in the world, that a T-Bone shuffle won't cure

Come here baby, sit down on your daddy's knee
Come here baby, sit down on your daddy's knee
I've got somethin' pretty baby, somethin' that's ailin' me

She's Into Something

Say what you do!

Snappin' of a finger make a dog wag it's tail
A whistle from her voice make a train jump it's rail
Take her to the racetrack
Show her face
A horse in years will come in first place!

She's into something
She's into something
She's into something
You should be into something too!

Well you laughed at her about a week ago
Now she's met a man with a whole lot of dough and oh yeah he's rich!
I seen the money!
And all she had to was to call the man "Honey"

She's into something
She's into something
She's into something
You should be into something too!

She rides around town
On her wheel
Oh yeah you might say she got herself a stone-cold deal
One thing the girl
She don't have to do
Is worry 'bout no money when the payment's due!

She's into something
She's into something
She's into something man you should be into something too!

Black Cat Bone

I believe, My baby got a black cat bone
I believe, My baby got a black cat bone
Seems like everything I do
Seems like I do it all wrong

I tried so hard, to get along with that woman of mine
I tried so hard, to get along with that woman of mine
Seems the more I try
She goes around cheatin' and Lyin'.

I walked all the way from Dallas
Down to Wichita Falls
Got to thinkin' 'bout that Big Leg Woman
And it weren't no walk at all

I believe My baby got a black cat bone

Dream

Last night once again I had the dream
I tossed and I turned
That old feeling's still the same
It was so real, I woke up cold and sweating
I wonder did I call her name?

In the dream she was right there with me
Right there with me in the bed
She said, "Bobby, come and kiss me"
"Never leave me" is what she said
But when I reached out to hold her
Oh, I woke my wife instead

Once again, once again, I had the dream
Six years since I've seen her
Ain't no doubt about what it means, no, no
I tried hard not to think about her
But all she left me was this dream

All she left me was the dream
All she left me was a dream

A dream

All she left me was the dream

I dreamed I called her name

I dreamed I held my baby in my arms

Oh, what a dream

Blackjack

Ah, let me tell you people
About this Blackjack game
It's caused me nothing but trouble
And I've only myself to blame

Hey hey hey, yeah
How unlucky can one man be
Well every quarter I get now
Lord, Blackjack takes it away from me

My friends don't come around me
Because I've been so blind
I can't even borrow a nickle
Now I've almost lost my mind

Hey hey hey, yeah
How unlucky can one man be
Well every quarter I get
Lord, Blackjack takes it away from me

I sat there with two tens
I thought I'd have some fun
The dealer hit sixteen with a five
Just enough to make twenty one

Hey hey hey, yeah yeah
How unlucky can one man be
Well every quarter I get
Yeah, Blackjack takes it away from me
