You Don't Have to Say You Love Me
(Ghost) Riders In the Sky
Vaughn Monroe
Peak Billboard position # 1 in 1949
Monroe may not have sung it precisely this way but a recording by him was not
available so the words and music herein are taken from the sheet music as written
by Stan Jones
Monroes' version, as well as competing versions by Peggy Lee (# 2), Bing Crosby
(#14), and Burl Ives (# 21) were all charted as just "Riders In the Sky"
Later, The Ramrods took it to # 30 in 1961 with the parenthetical (Ghost) added,
as did the Baja Marimba Band (#52 in 1966) and The Outlaws (#31 in 1

If I Lost You
theres been times ive felt like half a man
life had me down on my knees
troulbed times i dont understand
why they happen to me
i have struggled through the dark ness
and i have found the light of day
but if i lost you
thered be no sun shine shinin through
i dont know what in the world i would do
if i lost you
like a ship with no harbor,
like a bird with no wings,
like a fish out of water,
a dreamer without a dream,
i have learned about losing
i could lose most n e thing,
but if i lost you
thered be no sun shine shinin through
i dont know what in the world i would do
if i lost you
