The man who Shot Liberty Valance Gene Pitney
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDN4L7cAQf0

Lyrics

When Liberty Valance rode to town the womenfolk would hide, they'd hideWhen Liberty Valance walked around the men would step aside'cause the point of a gun was the only law that Liberty understoodWhen it came to shootin' straight and fast---he was mighty good.

>From out of the East a stranger came, a law book in his hand, a manThe kind of a man the West would need to tame a troubled land'cause the point of a gun was the only law that Liberty understoodWhen it came to shootin' straight and fast---

he was mighty good.Many a man would face his gun and many a man would fallThe man who shot Liberty Valance, he shot Liberty ValanceHe was the bravest of them all.

The love of a girl can make a man stay on when he should go, stay onJust tryin' to build a peaceful life where love is free to growBut the point of a gun was the only law that Liberty understoodWhen the final showdown came at last, a law book was no good.

Alone and afraid she prayed that he'd return that fateful night, aww that nightWhen nothin' she said could keep her man from goin' out to fight>From the moment a girl gets to be full-grown the very first thing she learnsWhen two men go out to face each other only one retur-r-r-nsEveryone heard two shots ring out, a shot made Liberty fall

The man who shot Liberty Valance, he shot Liberty ValanceHe was the bravest of them all.The man who shot Liberty Valance, he shot Liberty ValanceHe was the bravest of them all.

16 Tons Tennessee Ernie Ford

Lyrics

I was born one mornin' when the sun didn't shinePicked up my shovel and I walked to the mineI hauled Sixteen Tons of number 9 coalAnd the store boss said,

""Well, bless my soul""(Chorus:)You haul Sixteen Tons, whadaya getAnother day older and deeper in debtSaint Peter don't you call me cause I can't goI owe my soul to the company store

Repeat ChorusBorn one morning it was drizzl'n rainFightin' and Trouble are my middle name

I was raised in a canebrake by an old mama lion

And no high-toned woman make me walk the line

Repeat ChorusSee me comin' better step aside

A lot of men didn't and a lot of men diedI got one fist of iron and the other of steelAnd if the right one don't get ya, the left one will

Repeat Chorus

Born one mornin' when the sun didn't shinePicked up my shovel and I walked to the mineI hauled Sixteen Tons of number 9 coalAnd the store boss said, ""Well, bless my soul""
