Such An) Easy Question
(Blackwell – Scott)

Do you or don’t you love me?
Such an easy question
Why can’t I get an answer? Tell me.
Will you or won’t you need me?
Such an easy question
Why can’t I get an answer?
* All you do is-a give a sigh
And beat around the bush
Can it be that you’re too shy
To give yourself a little old push?
Can you or can’t you tell me yes?
It’s such an easy question
Why can’t I get an answer?
* Repeat
Oh yeh
It’s such an easy answer
To such an easy question
Why can’t I get an answer
To such an easy question?
Why can’t I get an answer?

Early Mornin’ Rain
(G. Lightfoot)

In the early mornin’ rain
With a dollar in my hand
And an achin’ in my heart
And my pockets full of sand
I’m a long ways from home
And I miss my loved ones so
In the early mornin’ rain
With no place to go
Out on runway number nine
Big 707 set to go
But I’m out here on the grass
Where the pavement never grows
Where the liquor tasted good
And the women all were fast
There she goes my friend
She’s rollin’ out at last
Hear the mighty engines roar (Hear the mighty engines roar)
See the silver wing on high (See the silver wing on high)
She’s away and westward bound
For above the clouds she’ll fly
Where the mornin’ rain don’t fall
And the sun always shine
She’ll be flyin’ o’er my home
In about three hours time
This ol’ airport’s got me down
It’s no earthly good to me
‘Cause I’m stuck here on the ground
Cold and drunk as I might be
Can’t jump a jet plane (Can’t jump a plane)
Like you can a freight train (Like a freight train)
So I’d best be on my way
In the early mornin’ rain
So I’d best be on my way
In the early mornin’ rain
So I’d best be on my way
In the early mornin’ rain

Easy Come, Easy Go
(Weisman / Wayne)

Easy come, easy go

Sailor beware take it slow

Echoes Of Love
(Roberts / Bachelor)

Though you are gone, I still wear your ring
They’re playing the song we used to sing
Echoes of love, echoes of love
Are coming to me out of the past
The letters you wrote I treasure them so
And I hear your voice wherever I go
Echoes of love, echoes of love
Are coming to me out of the past
In the rustle of the breeze; in the patter of the rain
In the rushing of the seas, all I hear is your name
Come back my love and once you are near
Darling I know no more will I hear
Echoes of love, echoes of love
’cause you’ll be with me right in my arms
Echoes of love, echoes of love
’cause you’ll be with me right in my arms

Edge Of Reality
(Giant / Baum / Kaye)

I walk along a thin line darling
Dark shadows follow me
Here’s where life’s dream lies disillusioned (disillusioned)
The edge of reality
Oh I can hear strange voices echo (echo)
Laughing with mockery (mockery)
The borderline of doom I’m facing (I’m facing)
The edge of reality
* On the edge of reality she sits there tormenting me
The girl with the nameless face
On the edge of reality where she overpowers me
With fears that I can’t explain
She drove me to the point of madness (madness)
The brink of misery (misery)
If she’s not real then I’m condemned to (condemned to)
The edge of reality
* Repeat

El Paso
(Marty Robbins)

(One of a number of songs Elvis sang a line or two of in 1970’s concerts)
(Lyrics contributed by Rien van Houten)

Out in the West Texas town of El Paso
I fell in love with a Mexican girl.
Night-time would find me in Rosa’s cantina;
Music would play and Felina would whirl.
Blacker than night were the eyes of Felina,
Wicked and evil while casting a spell.
My love was deep for this Mexican maiden;
I was in love but in vain, I could tell.
B:
One night a wild young cowboy came in,
Wild as the West Texas wind.
Dashing and daring,
A drink he was sharing
With wicked Felina,
The girl that I loved.
So in anger I
Challenged his right for the love of this maiden.
Down went his hand for the gun that he wore.
My challenge was answered in less than a heart-beat;
The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor.
Just for a moment I stood there in silence,
Shocked by the bountiful deed I had done.
Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there;
I had but one chance and that was to run.
B:
Out through the back door of Rosa’s I ran,
Out where the horses were tied.
I caught a good one.
It looked like it could run.
Up on its back
And away I did ride,
Just as fast as I
Could from the West Texas town of El Paso
Out to the bad-lands of New Mexico.
Back in El Paso my life would be worthless.
Everything’s gone in life; nothing is left.
It’s been so long since I’ve seen the young maiden
My love is stronger than my fear of death.
B:
I saddled up and away I did go,
Riding alone in the dark.
Maybe tomorrow
A bullet may find me.
Tonight nothing’s worse than this
Pain in my heart.
And at last here I
Am on the hill overlooking El Paso;
I can see Rosa’s cantina below.
My love is strong and it pushes me onward.
Down off the hill to Felina I go.
Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys;
Off to my left ride a dozen or more.
Shouting and shooting I can’t let them catch me.
I have to make it to Rosa’s back door.
B:
Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel
A deep burning pain in my side.
Though I am trying
To stay in the saddle,
I’m getting weary,
Unable to ride.
But my love for
Felina is strong and I rise where I’ve fallen,
Though I am weary I can’t stop to rest.
I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle.
I feel the bullet go deep in my chest.
From out of nowhere Felina has found me,
Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side.
Cradled by two loving arms that I’ll die for,
One little kiss and Felina, good-bye.

El toro
(Giant,Baum,Kaye)

There’s a legend of a famous matador
Who went to meet El Toro
Though he fought as he had never done before
He could not beat, El Toro
* The bull El Toro, brought him defeat and fame
And to his sorrow, the matador drew shame
They said time would never heal the many scars
Brought by the great, El Toro
And the bitterness that burned deep in his heart
Caused him to hate, El Toro
* Repeat
So one night, when no-one was in sight
The matador, went to settle the score
In the lonely fields, beneath the pale moonlight
He sought the bull…and they fought once more
When they found the matador they saw him dying
He’d never see tomorrow
Now they say that on the spot where he was lying
Still walks the proud El Toro
The bull El Toro, brought him defeat and fame
And to his sorrow, the matador knew shame….
