Steal Your Heart Away

Hey hey, you know that you're so fine
I wanna love you all the time.
I'm gonna steal your heart away,
Steal your heart away.
I'm gonna steal your heart to me,
No more would it stray, 
Steal your heart away.

What should I care about, about your other man?
I just wanna love you just as much as I can.
I'm gonna steal your heart away,
Steal your heart away.
Oh I'm gonna steal your heart, babe.
No more will it stray,
Steal your heart away.

My momma told me afore I was five years old
She said “You're gonna be a star some day, son you got heart and soul”
Steal your heart away, yeah
Steal your heart away, yeah.
I'm gonna steal your heart, babe,
No more will it stray,
Steal your heart away.

Lose Your Money

Everybody's talking
To that girl of mine
'Cause they really like her, 
She's so fine.

Lose your money 
But don't lose your mind,
Lose your woman 
But don't fool with mine.

I heard you lost your woman
Because you did her wrong,
Gambled all your money
Playing dice.

Lose your money 
But don't lose your mind,
Lose your woman 
But don't fool with mine.

Now I don't aim
To lose my woman yet
'Cause she wasn't 
A easy one to get.  [sic]

Lose your money 
But don't lose your mind,
Lose your woman 
But don't fool with mine.

Go on ahead and light up the town
And do everything that your heart desires, baby,
Yeah but, just remember,
Just like, just like I told you so many times before,
I know that you're gonna come running back.
Yes baby, you're gonna come running back and knocking so hard on my door, baby.

Time is on my side
Yes it is, baby,
Time is on my side,
Gotta believe me.

Now I got some real love,
It's the kind you need.

It's Easy Child

It's easy, child, falling in love with you.
It's easy, child, falling in love with you.
It's easy, easy, easy child,
It's easy falling in love with you.

Now it didn't take much to falling in love with you,
The minute I felt your touch I knew what I'd got to do.

It's easy, easy, easy child,
It's easy falling in love with you.
It's easy falling in love with you.

It's easy, child, falling in love with you.
It's easy, child, falling in love with you.
Whoa it's easy, easy, easy child,
It's easy falling in love with you.

Now it didn't take much to falling in love with you,
The minute I felt your touch I knew what I'd got to do.

It's easy, easy, easy child,
It's easy falling in love with you.

From The Bottom Of My Heart

I can't be any more
     (in love with you).
There ain't nowhere I can find now
     (anymore to)
That I can criticize.

From the bottom of my heart
I really love you,
Oh yes I do now.

It didn't take too long to be sure.
From the bottom of my heart,
Oh I really do.

Things you do I admire
     (And I'm in love with you).
You gotta realise that, baby,
Every day I love those higher and higher.
     (I find no faults in you)
That I can criticize.
From the bottom of my heart
Oh I really love you,
Oh yes I do now.

It didn't take too long to be sure,
From the bottom of my heart,
Oh I really do.

Now don't you ever go away,
Without you I just don't know where to start over.
I'm asking you to stay and, baby,
I know I'm saying it
From the bottom of my heart.

It's a love, that I know
     (And I'm in love with you).
Oh you gotta realise, baby,
As day by day our love will grow.
     (I find no faults in you)
That I can criticize.
From the bottom of my heart
Oh I really love you,
Yes I do now.

It didn't take too long to be sure,
From the bottom of my heart,
Oh I really do.

Oh I really do love you.
Oh I really do love you, baby.

Yes, I really do love you,
Yeah.
Love.
Oh.....

Come Back (I Don't Want To Go On Without You)

I don't want to
Go on without you.
It's so bad to be lonely,
Oh baby, come home.

I need you,
Yes I do now.
My room is so blue,
I keep seeing your face
Oh, every place, oh.

Oh, here in the gloom
Of my lonely room
I hold her handkerchief
And smell her sweet perfume.

I can't stand to
     (oh no, no, no)
Live on without you,
Oh my darling
Hear my pleas,
Come on back to me.

Here in the gloom
Of my lonely room
I hold her handkerchief
And smell her sweet perfume.

I can't stand to
     (oh no, no, no)
Live on without you,
Oh my darling
Hear my pleas,
Come on back to me.

I can't stand it, 
I can't stand it to be,
Don't you go now.
Don't you go now.
Don't you go now.

And My Baby's Gone

We're not in love
Anymore.
I'm like a rich man
Gone poor.

All my treasures are stolen.
Yeah, all my treasures are stolen.

My baby,
My baby,
My baby,
My baby,
Yeah my baby is gone.

Without your heart
Anymore
I'm like a room
With no door.

Now when I walk and crawl,
Now when I walk and crawl,

But my baby,
Yeah, my baby,
But my baby,
My baby,
My baby is gone.

We're not in love
Anymore.
I'm like a rich man
Gone poor.

All my treasures are stolen.
Yeah, all my treasures are stolen.

Oh my baby,
Yeah, my baby
Oh my baby,
Yeah, my baby,
My baby

My baby,
Oh oh, my baby
Oh my baby,
My baby,
My baby is gone

Oh yeah
