Toby Hughes         30

1. "I know, I know that one day you'll wake up and find
    That my love was a true love"   (11)
IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME   Brook Benton/Randy Travis  7/4/7
(Benton wrote and recorded the original pop version. Several country artists 
have recorded it over the years.  Sonny James even had a #1 hit with it in 
the late 60s.  Randy Travis had the second and latest #1 country hit.)

2. "I was standing by my window on one cold and cloudy day"  (5)
WILL THE CIRCLE BE UNBROKEN  Carter Family/Nitty Gritty Dirt Band  5/4/5
(A classic if there ever was one!)

3. "Everybody knows where you go when the sun goes down
    I think you only live to see the lights of town"   (10)
CRY, CRY, CRY   Johnny Cash/Marty Stuart   0/0/0
(I was surprised nobody got this one.  These are the first two lines of the 
first song I can ever remember Marty Stuart singing on the radio.  A tribute to
one of his mentors, Johnny Cash.)

4. "The more that I cry
    The faster that train flies
    Farther on down the track"   (2)
SHE'S GONE, GONE, GONE   Lefty Frizzell/Glen Campbell   5/2/4

5. "The image of a man who let love slip through his hands"  (7)
STATUE OF A FOOL   Jack Greene/Ricky Van Shelton    4/2/4
(One late night when the radiowaves were cooperating, I heard WSM play a 
tape of them singing it together at the Grand Ole Opry. That may be the 
ulitmate version.)

6. "...I can't seem to stop
    I love to give the girls a whirl
    To the music of an ole jukebox"   (12)
HONKY TONK MAN   Johnny Horton/Dwight Yoakam   6/1/6
(Dwight was easy.  Johnny was difficult.  Only Toby Hughes got him correct.)

7. "Here comes pride up the backstretch
    Heartaches goin' to the inside"  (6)
THE RACE IS ON   George Jones/Sawyer Brown   7/7/5

8. "He said, Sit down I got some bad news and it's gonna hurt"  (4)
THE NIGHT THE LIGHTS WENT OUT   Vicki Lawrence/Reba McEntire   5/3/5
(Yes, the same Vicki Lawrence from "The Carol Burnett Show" and "Mama's 
Family.")     

9. "I want to learn to rope and ride
    I want to ride o'er the plains and the deserts
    Out west of the Great Divide"   (1)
I WANT TO BE A COWBOY'S SWEETHEART   Patsy Montana/Suzy Bogguss   6/6/4
(Over fifty years ago, Patsy Montana became the first lady to have a million 
selling country record with her version of this song.)

10. "We met by chance and I knew at a glance that I'd found my destiny
     Now I want to carry you off and marry you if you will agree"  (3)
ABOVE AND BEYOND   Buck Owens/Rodney Crowell   4/1/4
(Only Ellen Drew identified Buck Owens.)

11. "Yesterday's gone
     Just love me from now on
     Be true to me forget about the past"  (8)
I DON'T CARE  Webb Pierce/Ricky Skaggs   3/1/3
(If you were close to the title you got credit.  Only Toby Hughes 
identified Webb Pierce.)

12. "I've grown so used to you somehow
     Well, I'm nobody's sugar daddy now"  (9)
LOVESICK BLUES   Hank Williams, Sr/George Strait  6/6/5
