(Words & music by Evans - Tobias) Blue river, it can't be found on any map that I know But it's the place where lonely lovers all go To cry their tears, blue river It winds along a path of heartache and pain Of broken dreams from lovin' someone in vain Like I loved you, and baby I still do I held you so tight You were out of my sight I'm feelin' so low But I gotta go Blue river because you never really cared about me From now on baby that's where I'm gonna be Cryin' over you, by the river of blue (words & music by Carl Perkins) Well, it's one for the money, Two for the show, Three to get ready, Now go, cat, go.

Do anything that you want to do, but uh-uh, Honey, lay off of my shoes Don't you step on my Blue suede shoes. You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes. Burn my house, Steal my car, Drink my cider From my old fruitjar. Do anything that you want to do, but uh-uh, Honey, lay off of my shoes Don't you step on my blue suede shoes. You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes.

But which road leads you to tomorrow? Charro... You've turned your back on yesterday Betrayed a man who swore he'd make you pay For when you left you took his pride away You know he'll never let you break away so easily You'll have to fight, before you're free But how much more time can you borrow? Charro... Now in a single moment your past grows dim One thought goes racing across your mind You ride to meet the woman you stole from him Oh no!...Charro don't go!... Charro don't go!!... There's something hanging, in the wind Your past is catching up and closing in You've been halfway to hell and back again And now you laugh in the devil's face with your last breath... You'll run a race with life and death... But will you live to see tomorrow? Charro...
