To me she was a little Angel. Sent down to me from God above. It was on the day that I first met her. Then I told her of my love. . It's mighty dark for me to travel.
It was midnight on the stormy deep. My solitary watch I'd keep. And think of her I'd left behind. And ask if she'd be true and kind. . I never shall forget the day.
[Chorus]. Memories of you, sweetheart, still haunt me so. Everytime I hear your name I almost cry. But, there's just one thing that I want you to know.
Mother left this world of sorrow. Our home was silent and so sad. Dad took sick and had to leave us. I have no home No mother nor dad. . There's a little lonesome grave yard.
There's folks building homes as sweet as can be. They're leveling their yards and planting their trees. But my little hut, I'll just let it be. Lord Jesus, is building a mansion for me.
My people were here long before the others cast their sails to the wind. Before the tears of innocence like a hard rain would desend. My people spread like eagle wings across the mountains and the plains.
Crossroads, seem to come and go, yeah.. The gypsy flies from coast to coast. . Knowing many, loving none,. Bearing sorrow havin' fun,. But back home he'll always run.
A boy heard the voice of the whippoorwill one night. And went out to find where he was singing. He had to walk quite a ways through a big field. Because the song of the whippoorwill carried so well in the wind.
My Lord and I;. We're gonna' walk and tell the story, children,. My Lord and I;. When I come to the river, wide,. The blessed Lord is gonna'. Calm the tide,.
If I was the last person to know. How you cheated me. Did you think I could let go. Of your betrayal easily. Oh no it went deep. I lost a lot of sleep.
Yeah.... Oh.... . (nothin's gonna stop me this time). (nothin's gonna stop me this time). . (nothin's gonna stop me this time). . Been on the loosing side.
The baby cries I could almost die from lonesome. The late show's gone and the coffee's on I think I reach some. Somewhere out there my love you share but your thoughts are far from home.
I left Garden City Kansas with a ticket and a yen to see New York. I typed eigty words a minute so your corporation let me go to work. I fetch paper clips and coffee even help you dodge your domineering wife.
I hear footsteps in the street below me just an echo in the cold and loenly rayin. And my heart breaks with every step that's taken me. As he walk on out to me at midnight train.
Big Jimmy Baker and Marty Gray met at a teenage party. Jimmy took Marty to school the next day both of them were tardy. Sittin' in the parking lot talking over things, waitin' for the morning bell to ring.
music intro. oooh. oooh...do with me what you want. together we can share. this special love. if you don't. you will be sorry. cuz unlike me. there is no one.
Mary, did you know. That your baby boy, would one day walk on water?. Mary, did you know. That your baby boy, would save our sons and daughters?. . Did you know.
People try to put us down. 'Cause they think we get around. Things I do look awful c-c-c-cold. I know I'll die before I get old. . This is my generation....
How do we get out from all they put out?. The feelings are let out, and we give our best out. When envy comes put on, all you do is look on. You can't put your shoes on; convenience is pulling you down....
