Don’t Let the Good Times Fool You is the 14th album by American country singer Melba Montgomery (born October 14, 1938 in Iron City, Tennessee). In the 1970s, Montgomery was a successful solo artist in her own right. Her best-known solo hit is the No. 1 hit, "No Charge". The single "Don't Let the Good Times Fool You" reached the top 15 in 1975, the only top 40 hit from the album. Subsequent singles also released from the album, "Searchin' (For Someone Like You)" and "Your Pretty Roses Come too Late" did not bring much success.
