We must be loving right
FORTY MILES FROM POPLAR BLUFF
Duet by Dolly Parton and Porter Wagoner

I've never had a pair of shoes that weren't all hand-me-downs
And daddy's morning coffee came from ol' left over ground
My mama wore no jewelry or any store bought stuff
And home was on a hillside forty miles from Poplar Bluff
Forty miles back in Missouri there's a different way of life
Where a man thinks of his neighbor and not his neighbor's wife
Life is far from fancy sometimes mighty rough
But contentment makes it worth it forty miles

Bye Bye Love
I can't feel this way much longer
Expecting to survive
With all these hidden innuendoes
Just waiting to arrive
It's such a wavy midnight
When you slip into insane
Electric angel rock and roller
I here what you're playing
It's an orangy sky
Always it's some other guy
It's just a broken lullaby
Bye bye love
Bye bye love
Bye bye love
Bye bye love
Substitution mass confusion
Clouds inside my head
Were fogging all my energies
until you visited
Eyes of porcelain and blue
Could shock me into sense
You think you're so illustrious
You call yourself intense
Bye bye love
Bye bye love
Bye bye love
Bye bye love
