Subject: Lyr Add: MAKES NO DIFFERENCE NOW
Well, let's see, there's Hank Williams' "Dear John, I sent your saddle home" and "Move it on over". and "Makes no difference now" which is a real beaut.

Makes no difference now what kind of life fate hands me
I'll get along without you now that's plain to see.
I don't care what happens next for I'll get by somehow
I don't worry,'cause it makes no difference noe.

II
It was just a year ago when I first met you
I learned to Love you and I thought you loved me too
But that's all in the past and I'll get by somehow
I don't worry 'cause it makes no difference now.

III
Now that all is said and done, I'll soon forget you
And I know that this won't be so hard to do
Maybe happiness will come your way someday somehow,
but I don't worry, 'cause it makes no difference now.


From Hank Snow's "Down the trail of aching hearts"

Once I was passing your window under the light from a star.
Someone was singin our love song, and played it on my old guitar.

But of all those (and I know a l;ot more) there's none can equal a song composed by the ever lovely and lovable Donna Gibson (Ma Fazoo) who insist that it does not relate to me.

I bet you never ever thought , did'ja,
You'd never think I could or should, would Yuh? You think that I should sit here and cry don't yuh, wish I'd crawl off and die don't you
Bet you think the whole thing's a lie, dont yuh?
But it's true, it's true, it's true'it's true, it's true.
I'm in a proper snit, I think I'll have a fit, to think I'd take this sh....ituation from a doorknob such as you.
You know you done me wrong, so I wrote this song,
AND IF I HAD IT TO DO ALL OVER AGAIN, I'D DO IT ALL OVER YOU.
