Well on the day that I left school. I thought that I'd be pretty cool. And I'd move up to the city for awhile. So I'm sitting in this cafe. with a coffee I mean latte.
I got back in town a day before I'd planned to. I smiled and said I'll sure surprise my wife. I don't think I'll phone I'll just head on home. For I didn't know the cold hard facts of life.
I tried so hard my dear, to show that you're my every dream. Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme. A mem'ry from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart.
Come on rain, pour on down. Flood that runway, shut it down. She's in Dallas, waiting on a plane. Don't let her leave, come on rain. . Unleash your fury, fill the sky.
Under the stars, Spanish guitars. Sing the Santa Maria outside my room. The music's playing on a sweet bougainvillea breeze. Romantically, oh, but not for me.
There's smoke down by the river. Hear the cannon and the drum. I've got one thing to ask you honey. Can you run?. . You know I hate to ask so late. But the moment's finally come.
One morning in Jerusalem about the break of dawn. A great trial was in session, they tried our blessed lord. They scorned him and they mocked him, they made him carry the cross.
Could you love me one more time. With a love that really is mine. I've waited so long they say you've gone wrong. Have I lost you forever this time. .
Do you remember Long time ago. Daddy worked a man called Cotton Eyed Joe. Daddy worked a man called Cotton Eyed Joe. . I could have been married long time ago.
Children go where I send Thee. How will I send thee. Oh I'm gonna send thee one by one. . one was a little bitty baby born,. born in Bethlehem. . Two was Paul and Silas.
Don't go so far away love, try to stay around. For losing you would be more than I could bear. Though I'm tied to another, I hope someday she'll set me free.
I have left the land of bondage with its earthly treasures. I've journeyed to the place where there is love on every hand. I've exchanged the land of heartaches for the land of pleasure.
As you go along from day to day. No thoughts of God, no time to pray. Though He gave His life, that you and me. And this old sinful world be free. . Oh, the voice I heard from heaven's throne.
Pull up the vibes that you're playing. Can you play some more, can you play some more?. Lift it up, jock it up, pull it up, come again now. Can you play some more, can you play some more?.
Cigarettes, whiskey and wild, wild women. They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane. Cigarettes, whiskey and wild wild women. They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane.
Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new. For my yearning heart keeps saying you're not mine. My troubled mind knows soon to another you'll be wed. And that's why I'm lonely all the time.
The cat came back. . Now old Uncle John had troubles of his own. He had an ol' yellow cat that wouldn't leave home. He tried everything he knew to keep the cat away.
I hate men with connections. I hate your connections. I said, I don't like your connections. . I don't like your connections. I hate men with connections.
Saving all your money for fame. Giving everything, giving everything. You hate ones face. And hope that others will love the other. So many shadows under my eyes.
I know your teeth have gnashed through death. Still you come to me. So gently. Find a soft place on your body. And rub me with it. Oh, this I won't soon forget.
