Heartaches By The Number

(Harlan Howard)

Now I've got heartaches by the number troubles by the score

Every day you love me less each day I love you more

Yes I've got heartaches by the number a love that I can't win

But the day that I stop counting that's the day my world will end.

Busted

(Harlan Howard)

The bills are all due and the babies need shoes but I'm busted

Cotton is down to a quarter a pound but I'm busted

Got a cow that's gone dry and a hen that won't lay

A big stack of bills that gets bigger each day

The county's gonna haul my belongings away I'm busted I'm busted.

Pick Me Up On Your Way Down

(Harlan Howard)

Pick me up on your way down when you're blue and all alone

When their glamour starts to bore you come on back where you belong

You may be their pride and joy but they'll find another toy

Then they'll take away your crown pick me up on your way down.

I've Got a Tiger By the Tail

(Harlan Howard - Buck Owens)

I've got a tiger by the tail it's plain to see

Well I won't be much when you get through with me

I'm losin' weight and turnin' mighty pale

And it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail.

Yeah, it looks like I've got a tiger by the tail...
