If I say yes, I'm sure you'll say no
If I say stop I know you'll say go
What seems to be the problem here
Is you and me, 'cause we just can't agree
So let's just say goodnight and go home

You're always right, and I have never
Been wrong. The way we are it's getting
Harder to hang on.
But who's to blame, when two things are
Never the same, it's not people
That change, it's maybe living from day to day

What can I say, the Lord just made us this way
What can I do you know what I've been thru.
It's just this world, it makes it hard for
A guy and girl, but we could give it a whirl,
So let's just say goodnight and go home


. . .



[Chorus:]
She's got me walking, got me talking,
Talking to myself. And I've got no money,
Got no honey, trouble is all I have

It happened just the other night
I had been out drinking and I was
Feeling fine, but when I got home
She was at the door, she had fire
In her eyes.
So I tried to keep my cool, wasn't
Much more that I could do.
Then she let me have it right between
The eyes and I knew our love was thru

[Chorus]

Now what is a man to do
When a woman wants it all from you
Says if you want to be my man
Better quit that band and stop
Acting like a fool

[Chorus]


. . .



Cuando te cases con el otro ire a tu boda,
Cuando pregunten en seguida me opendre,
Y si pregunta el jura que porque me opongo,
Yo le dire que porque tu eres mi querer,
Y si se enoja el que ira ser tu esposo.

Saco mi cuete y me pongo a disparar
Al fin y al cabo yo no le tengo a la muerte
Y voy al bote porque soy la autoridad

[Chorus:]
Ay! Anselma, Anselma, Anselma
Chaparra de mis penares,
O, dejas que te visite
O, te mando a los jendarmes

Y si te niegas a matrimoniar conmigo
Les quiteo el rancho y propiedad de tu papa
Les pongo ipuestos y hasta les quemo la casa
Porque por algo soy aqui la autoridad

Yo ordeno, y mando en todo este munisipio
Yo te lo digo por si quieres escapar
Aya en el otro el que manda es mi tio elijio
No mas le digo y te tiene que agarrar

[Chorus]


. . .



Well come on let's go, let's go, let's go
Little darling
And tell me that you'll never leave me
Come on let's go and do it again

Well now swing me, swing me, all the way
Down there
Come on let's go little darling
Come on let's go again once more

[Bridge:]
Well now I love you so
And I'll never let you go
Come on Baby so
Oh! Pretty baby I love you so

Well come on let's go, let's go, let's go
Little darling
And tell me we'll always be together
Come on let's go again and do it again

[Bridge]

Well let's go, let's go, let's go little sweetheart
And tell me we'll always dance together
Come on let's go and do it again


. . .



You know I love you Baby
Every word is true
There ain't nothing in this world I
Would do for you to show my love is true
To show my love is true

To show I love you Honey
This is what I'll do
I'll stop chasing every pretty little
Girl in town to show my love is true
To show my love is true

To show I love you Sugar
Baby hear me through
I'll quit hanging around those topless bars
And stay right here with you
To show my love is true

To show how much I love you
What more can I do
I won't drink that premium T-bird wine
And stay right here with you
To show my love is true

To show I love you Darling
How much can I do
I'll give up my friends, that old
Juke box, hang up my rocking shoes
To show my love is true

Now wait a minute Baby
Let me think this thru
I can't see myself
Wasting all my time
Trying to prove my love for you
Let's see who's love is true


. . .



Why do you do the things you do to me
Why do you do the things you do to me
I love you Baby now Baby can't you see

You got me jittery nervous all through the day
You got me jittery nervous all through the day
Well brother you know that really doesn't pay

How can you jive me and treat me this way
I'm getting sick and tired of bending your way
Please straighten out Baby stop your game
Come on now Honey don't give me more pain

Well! Why do you do it to me yeah!
Well! Why do you do it to me
I love you Baby now Baby can't you see

My friends all say that you're so doggone sweet
My friends all say that you're so doggone sweet
Well what they don't see is someone not so neat


. . .



Ya no quiereo que me beses ni besarte
Ni mirarte ni siquera oir tu voz
Por que supe que tenias otro amante
Y en Laredo ya tenias otros dos

[Chorus:]
Te gusta mucho el baile
Y bailas al compas
Te vas hasta Laredo
Y quieres mas y mas

Soy ranchero jugador y navegante
Ya me voy para nunca mas volver
Me dejastes sin dinero y sin rolante
Por el mundo te me echastes a correr

[Chorus:]
Te gusta mucho el baile
Y bailas al compas
Te vas hasta Laredo
Y quieres mas y mas

Ya me voy a te dejo en San Antonio
Tu manita no te la puedo quitar
Momento que pareces el demonio
Cuando mueves la cintura pa' bailar

[Chorus:]
Te gusta mucho el baile
Y bailas al compas
Te vas hasta Laredo
Y quieres mas y mas
