DON'T COME BACK KNOCKING (Buddy Holly - Sue Parrish)
_________________________________________________________________
Well, I found you're a rover and it's made me blue
Like a talent scout you want some love that's new
Don't come back knocking at my heart's closed door
For I won't be home, don't call an' knock no more
Well, when you went away and left me all alone
While you played around I waited at home
Don't come back knocking at my heart's closed door
For I won't be home, don't call an' knock no more
You had all my heart, it was your very own
You weren't satisfied, now I'll go on alone
Don't come back knocking at my heart's closed door
For I won't be home, don't call an' knock no more
(Oh, let's really knock it this time boys!)
Well, pity those with hearts so empty and cold
To never know true love, a treasure to hold
Don't come back knocking at my heart's closed door
For I won't be home, don't call an' knock no more

DOOR TO MY HEART (Bob Montgomery)
_________________________________________________________________
|  | | | Buddy and Bob |
I'll open the door and let you find me
The door to my heart, your love behind me
But you were not willing to just step insi-i-ide
Now the door to my heart i-is still open wide
I hoped you would enter and stay there with me
When I opened the door to let your love come in
Now you've shunned my ho-o-ope, my love and my pri-i-ide
But the door to my heart i-is still open wide
Now you've shunned my ho-o-ope, my love and my pri-i-ide
But the door to my heart i-is still open wide

DOWN THE LINE (Buddy Holly - Bob Montgomery)
_________________________________________________________________
Well, my ol' car's a-rollin' down the line
Thoughts of my baby runnin' through my mind
She's a-waitin' for me, I gotta be on time
I gotta go, go, go, go, go, go, go
I gotta go, go, go, go, go, go, go
Well, the white marker's flying off the road below
Man, I'm a-really flyin' low
My baby's waitin', I can't go slow
I gotta go, go, go, go, go, go, go
I gotta go, go, go, go, go, go, go
Well, a big policeman pulled alongside a-me
He said, "Boy you ain't quite as fast as me!"
I showed him a picture of that baby of mine
He said, "Boy you gotta roll on down that line !"
Well, my ol' car's a-rollin' down the line
Thoughts of my baby runnin' through my mind
She's a-waitin' for me, I gotta be on time
I gotta go, go, go, go, go, go, go
I gotta go, go, go, go, go, go, go
Repeat from the beginning
Roll on down the line

DROWN IN MY OWN TEARS (Ray Charles)
________________________________________________________________
Wet rains the tear into my eyes
when I began to realize
I cried so much since you been gone
I guess I'll drown in my own tears
I've really cried just like a child
My poor little tears are running wild
If you don't think you'll be home soon
I guess I'll drown, oh-yeah, in my own tears
I know it's true, into each life
Well, some rain, rain must fall
Clouds over here without you
It keeps a-rainin' more and more
Why can't you come on home
oh-yes, so I won't be all alone
If you don't think, you'll be home soon
I guess I'll drown in my own tears
Oh don't let me drown in my own tears

 BUDDY HOLLY - Early In The Morning
Well! you're gonna miss me
Early in the morning, one of these days, oh yeah
Well, you're gonna want me
Early in the morning
When I'm away... hey!, hey!, don't ya know
Yes, you'll be sorry for the times I cried
You'll be sorry for the times you lied
Well, you're gonna miss me
Early in the morning, one of these days, oh yeah
Well, you know a rolling stone (rolling stone)
Don't gather no moss (gather no moss)
And you cross your bridge (cross your bridge)
When it's time to cross (time to cross)
Well, you broke my heart (broke my heart)
When you said goodbye (said goodbye)
Now the milk is spilt but, you're gonna cry!
Yeah, early in the morning
You're gonna know, that I was right
Oh, yeah!, yeah!, early in the morning
When there's nobody
To hold you tight... oh, oh, oh!!

You're gonna miss the best man you ever had
Yes, you're gonna miss me
Early in the morning, one of these days, oh yeah

You'll miss the best man you ever had
Yes, you're gonna want me
You're gonna miss me a-one of these days, yeah yeah yeah

EVERYDAY (Charles Hardin - Norman Petty)
_________________________________________________________________
 Everyday - BUDDY HOLLY
Everyday it's a-gettin' closer
Goin' faster than a rollercoaster
Love like yours will surely come my way
A-hey, a-hey-hey
Everyday it's a-gettin' faster
Everyone said, "Go ahead and ask her"
Love like yours will surely come my way
A-hey, a-hey-hey
Everyday seems a little longer
Every way love's a little stronger
Come what may
Do you ever long for true love from me
Everyday it's a-gettin' closer
Goin' faster than a rollercoaster
Love like yours will surely come my way
A-hey, a-hey-hey
Everyday seems a little longer
Every way love's a little stronger
Come what may
Do you ever long for true love from me
Everyday it's a-gettin' closer
Goin' faster than a rollercoaster
Love like yours will surely come my way
A-hey, a-hey-hey
Love like yours will surely come my way
