...1951, Marty Robbins graba "Love me, or leave me alone"




A lonely wife had written a letter one sad day
to the one she loved who'd wandered far away
and her teardrops fell like rain falling on the window pane
them she read the note and this it had to say
if you love me come and stay
if you don't please stay away
either love me or leave me alone
don't come back and say you'll stay
if you plan to leave someday
either love me or leave me alone
I can't stand this grief and strife
sick with heartache, sick with fright
since we've married you've left me to roam
i have led a lonely life
since you took me for your wife
either love me or leave me alone
Love me now or say goodbye
don't come back and live a lie
you must love me or leave me alone
love like yours just can't be true
but i'm still in love with you
you must love me or leave me alone
If you love me come and stay
if you don't please stay away
either love me or leave me alone
don't come back and say you'll stay
if you plan to leave someday
either love me or leave me alone

(Marty Robbins)

...1956, Bobby Helms graba "Fraulein"



Hank Locklin



Willie Nelson



Johnny Rodriguez




Far across deep blue waters, lives an old german's daughter
by the banks of the old river Rhine
where i loved her and left her, but i can't forget her
i miss my pretty Fraulein
Fraulein, Fraulein, look up toward the heaven
each night when the stars start to shine
by the same stars above you, i swear that i love you
you are my pretty Fraulein
When my memories wander, away over yonder
to the sweetheart that i left behind
in a momento of glory, a face comes before me
the face of my pretty Fraulein
Fraulein, Fraulein, walk down by the river
pretend that your hand's holdin' mine
by the same stars above you, i swear that i love you
cause you are my pretty Fraulein

(Lawton Williams)

...1959, Stonewall Jackson graba "Mary don't you weep" en Columbia




Oh Mary don't you weep for me
oh Mary just you wait for me
the battle will soon be over
oh Mary don't you weep
Jimmy sent a letter to his bride back home
for three long years now he's been gone
he left her cryin' on her wedding day
and went to fight the battle of the blue and gray
Oh Mary don't you weep for me
Oh Mary just you wait for me
the war's gonna soon be over
oh Mary don't you weep
Mary's young heart was filled with joy
when she got the letter from her soldier boy
his words of love made her heart beat fast
Oh Mary don't you weep for me
oh Mary just you wait for me
the battle will soon be over
oh Mary don't you weep
On that same day Atlanta burned down
her soldier boy he fell to the ground
now Mary sits alone by the candle light
and reads his letter over every night
Oh Mary don't you weep for me
oh Mary just you wait for me
the war's gonna soon be over
oh Mary don't you weep
Oh Mary don't you weep for me
oh Mary just you wait for me
the battle's gonna soon be over
oh Mary don't you weep
oh Mary don't you weep
Oh Mary don't you weep

...1958, Bill Anderson graba "That's what it's like to be lonesome"



Conway Twitty



Gene Stuart



Cal Smith



Johnny Bush y Justin Trevino




The streets are dark and empty
and you walk them all alone
you think about your love affair
and wonder what went wrong
You go to bed each night
and pray you'll never see the dawn
afraid of each tomorrow
with it's heartless cold unknown
And that's what it's like to be lonesome
without your love it's such an empty world
and that's what it's like to be lonesome
i know 'cause i'm a mighty lonesome girl
You search to find a tavern
where the music's playing loud
you try to lose your heartache
in the laughter or the crowd
But the happy couples make you think of
things that might have been
and you have to fight the teardrops
till you're by yourself again
And that's what it's like to be lonesome
without your love it's such an empty world
and that's what it's like to be lonesome
i know 'cause i'm a mighty lonesome girl

(Bill Anderson)

...1964, Connie Smith graba "Then and only then"



Loretta Lynn




In your haste you left and said you'd be returnin'
in my sorrow i forgot to ask you when
in my lonely room i sit and count the hours
every minute hoping i'll look up and you'll come walkin' in
For then and only then will i stop crying
and this aching, breaking heart of mine will mend
not until i feel your arms around me
well, i'll be happy and i live for then and only then
All that's left inside my heart is just your echo
and the tiny thread of hope to which i cling
but if i keep holding on, maybe some day
you'll remember where you left me
and come back for me again
For then and only then will i stop crying
and this aching, breaking heart of mine will mend
not until i feel your arms around me
well, i'll be happy and i live for then and only then
and i'll live for then and only then

(Bill Anderson)
