Recorded by Hank Snow



While looking through my jewelry drawer

Beneath some paper, there I saw

An address book I'd kept throughout the years

It listed all the girls on it

Friends, my list sure has grown

Each name brings back the laughter and the tears

There were girls that I'd romance with

Girls that I had dance with

Some whose face that I just can't recall

There were girls I kissed and lied to

Some I couldn't, and though I tried to

The name of the game was love

And I played it with them all

There was Mary, Martha, Diana, Eva, Josie

Hannah, Anna, Sally, Beth and Rosie

Bonnie, Connie, Susan and Cindy

You get Claudette, Emma and a Minsy

Janet, Gina, Ingrid or a Bessie

Florance, Fanny, surely gonna test us

Francie, Nora, Alice, even Dolly

Gertie, Gretchen, Carmelita and Molly

Girls of every nation, each one a new temptation

They were great, I sure had a ball

They are girls that I had courted

Girls whose marriage plans I hoarded

The name of the game was love

And I played it with them all

There was Betty, Ann, Carol and Yuanita

Cora, Dora, Grace and Rosilita

Mory, Margie, Lisa, Katie

Dottie, Lottie, Lynn and a Sadie

Henrietta, Mabel, Jane and a Alice

Daisy, Maizie, Mona and Cecilia

Lois, Liza, Laura and Leona

Vida, Vee, Louisa and Ramona

Penny, Janice, Silvia, Elmira

Etta, Gretta, Louise or Mira

Merle and Perle, and Leorial and Denise

Doris, Picta, Julia and Amy

Frances, Flora, Dontie, even Trudy

Barbara, Ethel, Ellen is a beauty

Katie, Camden and Athenalina

Georgia, Clara, Alba and Ema

Iris, Elise, Dorothy and Hilda

Olga, Donna, Lulu, Bella, Gilda

Eunice, Phoebe, Ida and a Eda

And I loved them all

And I loved them all

  • Rhumba Boogie
    "Well come all you children give a listen to me let me tell you bout a new boogie beat
    There's no hesitation it's sweepin' the nation
    It's the Rhumba Boogie down the South American way
    While Madame Lozonga was teachin' La Conga in her little cabana in old Havana..."
  • Im Movin On
    "That big eight-wheeler rollin' down the track
    Means your true-lovin' daddy ain't comin' back
    'Cause I'm movin' on, I'll soon be gone
    You were flyin' too high, for my little old sky..."
  • The Golden Rocket
    "I was a good engine a-runnin' on time
    But baby I'm switchin' to another line
    So honey never hang your signal out for me
    I'm tired of runnin' on the same old track..."
  • Unwanted Sign Upon Your Heart
    "I'm a wonder, I'll keep drifting on
    Can't see, honey, why you done me wrong
    Hard luck sure has got me
    I can't sleep a wink..."
  • Music Makin Mama from Memphis
    "Listen to a story about a gal I know
    She's my music makin' mama, I'm her hillbilly beau
    She's sweeter than the music when she tickles the strings
    Sweeter than the flowers down in New Orleans..."
  • The Gold Rush Is Over
    "Oh! the gold rush is over so honey bye bye
    Stake out your claim now on some other guy
    I've wined you and dined you 'til my money is gone
    But the gold rush is over and the bum's rush is on..."
  • I Dont Hurt Anymore
    "It don't hurt anymore
    All my teardrops are dried
    No more walkin' the floor
    With that burnin' inside..."
  • Would You Mind
    "Words & Music by Cy Coben
    Recorded by Hank Snow

    Would you mind if my heart is beating so for you?..."
