One of my favorites of his is โ€˜I canโ€™t help it if Iโ€™m still in love with you.โ€™

I read a story about how that song got written. He and his new wife went to Nashville to try to sell some of his songs and the publisher was skeptical that he had actually written them. He said, โ€œYour wife and I will go across the street and have lunch. While weโ€™re gone, write me a song about running into an old love on the street.โ€ They came back after lunch and he sang them this:

[quote]Today I passed you on the street
And my heart fell at your feet
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
Somebody else stood by your side
And he looked so satisfied
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
A picture from the past came slowly stealing
As I brushed your arm and stood so close to you
Suddenly I got that old time feeling
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
It's hard to know another's lips have kissed you
And held you just the way I used to do
Heaven only knows how much I've missed you
I can't help it if I'm still in love with you
Oh, I can't help it if I'm still in love with you[/quote]

Several great versions. Hank's, Norah Jones', and of course, The Joker's.
