The Byrds Your Gentle Way Of Loving Me written by Gary Paxton Gib Gilbreau
It's the humming of the engines on the Greyhound bus and trains
That keeps your memory on my mind and here with me
Many miles have come between us, cold nights on some roadside
Bringing back your gentle ways of loving me
It's the thought of how you love me, how you treat me, how you thrill
me
That clears my fogged-up mind to where I see
Some little girl as I walk by just looking at me sadly
Bringing back your gentle ways of loving me
It's just your gentle ways of loving me
It's just your gentle ways of loving me
It's the happiness I've never found with other loves that bothers
And a mother saying how her child loves me
And times you never talked about those late evening hours
Bringing back your gentle ways of loving me
It's just your gentle ways of loving me
It's just your gentle ways of loving me
It's just your gentle ways of loving me
It's just your gentle ways of loving me

The Byrds Truck Stop Girl written by Lowell George/Bill Payne
His tail lights flickered as he pulled up to the truck stop
The same old crowd was hanging out again tonight
He said fill up my tank while I go check my load
It feels like it's shifting all around
He was the kind of man to do all he could above all he had integrity
But he was so young and on a ten city run in love with a truck stop
girl
As he went inside he was merrily greeted
By the girl with whom he was in love
She held out a glass and said have another
This is the last time we can meet
With her hair piled up high and a look in her eye
That would turn any good man's blood to wine
All his eyes could see all his eyes could see
Were the stares from all those around him
He ran out to the lot and climbed into his rig
And drive off without tightening down
It was a terrible thing to see what remained
Of that rig that poor Danny was in
He was young and on a ten city run in love with a truck stop girl
