Kaw-Liga was a wooden indian standing by the door
He fell in love with an indian maid over in the antique store
Kaw-Liga just stood there and never let it show
So she could never answer yes or no
He always wore his sunday feathers and held a tomahawk
The maiden wore her beads and braids and hoped someday he'd talk
Kaw-Liga, too stubborn to ever show a sign
Because his heart was made of knotty pine
Poor old kaw-liga, he never got a kiss
Poor old kaw-liga, he don't know what he missed
Is it any wonder that his face is red?
Kaw-Liga,that poor old wooden head
Kaw-Liga was a lonely indian, never went nowhere
His heart was set on the indian maid with the coal black hair
Kaw-Liga just stood there and never let it show
So she could never answer yes or no
Poor old kaw-liga, he never got a kiss
Poor old kaw-liga, he don't know what he missed
Is it any wonder that his face is red?
Kaw-Liga,that poor old wooden head
Then one day a wealthy customer bought the indian maid
And took her oh so far away, but old kaw-liga stayed
Kaw-Liga just stands there as lonely as can be
And wishes he was still an old pine tree
Poor old kaw-liga, he never got a kiss
Poor old kaw-liga, he don't know what he missed
Is it any wonder that his face is red?
Kaw-Liga,that poor old wooden head
Kaw-liga, Kaw-liga Kaw-Liga....

Hey good lookin' what you got cookin'?
How's about cookin' something up with me?
Hey good lookin' what you got cookin'?
How's about cookin' something up with me?
I'm free and ready so we can go steady
How's about keeping steady company
I'm gonna throw my name book over the fence
Buy myself one for five or ten cents
Keep it till it's covered with age
Cos I'm writing your name on every page
Hey good lookin' what you got cookin'?
How's about cookin' something up with me?
Hey good lookin' what you got cookin'?
How's about cookin' something up with me?
Hey good lookin' what you got cookin'?
How's about cookin' something up with me?
Hey sweet baby, don't you think maybe
we could find a brand new recipe?
I've got a hopped up Ford and a ten dollar bill
I know a spot right over the hill
There's soda pop and the dancing's free
So if you wanna have fun come along with me
Hey good lookin', Hey good lookin'
Hey good lookin', Hey good lookin'
Hey good lookin'....

Music & Lyrics : Hank Williams
Goodbye, Joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh.
Me gotta go, pole the pirogue down the bayou.
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and filé* gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Thibodaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin',
kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen.
Dress in style and go hog wild, me oh my oh.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and filé gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Settle down far from town, get me a pirogue
and I'll catch all the fish in the bayou.
Swap my mon to buy Yvonne what she need-o.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and filé gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.

(Hank Williams)
I know you tried your best to love me
You smiled when your heart told you to weep
You tried to pretend that you were happy
Ooh last night I heard you crying in your sleep
You gave the best years of your life, dear
And each preccious vow you tried to keep
I love you so much I want you happy
Ooh last night I heard you crying in your sleep
Your heart is yearning for an old love
With new love it's useless to compete
It hurts me to know that you're unhappy
Yeah last night I heard you crying in your sleep
You know that you are free to go, dear
And don't mind me if I weep
I know I can never make you happy
Cos last night I heard you crying in your sleep
. . .

The news is out all over the town,
That you,ve been seen a-runnin' round,
I know that I should leave, but then,
I just can't go – you win again.
This heart of mine could never see,
what everybody knew but me,
just trustin' you was my great sin,
what can I do? You win again.
I'm sorry for your victim now,
‘cause soon his head, like mine, will bow,
he'll give his heart, but all in vain,
and someday say, "you win again".
You have no heart, you have no shame,
You take true love and give the blame,
I guess that I should not complain,
I love you still – you win again.

Your cheatin' heart will make you weep
You'll cry and cry and try to sleep
but sleep won't come the whole night through
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you
When tears come down like fallin' rain
you'll toss around and call my name
You're gonna walk that floor the way I do
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you
When tears come down like fallin' rain
you'll toss around and call my name
You're gonna walk that floor the way I do
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you

I tried so hard my dear to show
That you're my every dream
Yet you're afraid each thing I do
Is just some evil scheme
A memory from your lonesome past
Keeps us so far apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold cold heart?
Another love before my time
Made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is paying now
For things I didnt do
In anger unkind words are said
That makes the teardrops start
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold cold heart?
There was a time when I believed
That you belonged to me
But now I know your heart is shackled
To a memory
The more I learn to care for you
The more we drift apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind
And melt your cold cold heart?

Tonight down here in the valley
I'm lonesome and oh, how I feel
As I sit here alone in your cabin
I can see your mansion on the hill
Do you remember when we parted?
The story to me you revealed
You said you could live without love, dear
In your loveless mansion on the hill
I've waited all through the years. love
To give you a heart true and real
Cos I know you are living in sorrow
In your loveless mansion on the hill
The light shines bright from your window
The trees stand so silent and still
I know you're alone with your pride, dear
In your loveless mansion on the hill
. . .

Today I passed you on the street
And my heart was at your feet
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
Somebody else stood by you're side
And he looked so satisfied
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you.
A picture from the past came slowly stealing
As I bruced your arm and walked so close to you.
And suddenly I got that old time feeling
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you.
instrumental part
It's hard to know that other lips will kiss you
And hold you close the way I used to do
Oh heaven only knows how much I miss you
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you..

Why, oh [F] why - should you de-[C] sert me
Are you [F] doin' this for [G7] spite
If you [C] only [C7] want to hurt [F] me
Then There'll [C] Be No [G7] Teardrops To-[C] night.
I'll believe that you still love me
When you wear your veil of white
But you think that you're above me
So There'll Be No Teardrops Tonight.
Shame, oh shame - for what you're doin'
Other arms will hold you tight
You don't care whose life you ruin
But There'll Be No Teardrops Tonight.

Did you hear that lonesome whippoorwill?
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low
And I'm so lonesome I could cry
Did you ever see a night so long
When time goes crawlin' by?
The moon just went behind a cloud
And I'm so lonesome I could cry
Did you ever see a robin weep
When leaves begin to die?
That means he's lost the will to live
And I'm so lonesome I could cry
The silence of a fallin' star
Lights up a purple sky
And as I wonder where you are
I'm so lonesome I could cry
Yeah I-I could cry-eye-eye
I could cry-eye, eye-eye-eye, I-I could cry-eye
I could cry-eye, oh-oh-oh-oh
I-I could cry, I could cry
. . .
