Am I dreaming or is that the morning sunlight shining in. I can't believe it, I was so sure my world was comin' to an end. I may never live to see the day your memory lets me go.
Granddaddy used to sit me on his knee. And tell me how it was in the old country. Famine and floods and crops that failed. I'd listen for hours as he told his tale.
My windshields cracked just like my heart. My tires are all flat just like my brain. My engines running rough, just like my soul. Dont know how much further we can go burning this much oil.
I never want this night to end. Sitting here hanging out, with all of my friends. Telling stories, too many secrets for one man to hold. Catching up on our lives, out on the road.
[ Both ]. We're far apart but our hearts're holding hands. [ Merle ]. It's lonely just to sit here by myself each night. Not knowing when I'll ever get to hold you tight.
This world's enough to break a man's heart. Make him question who's in charge. And then you ask me to believe. What I can't see. . Well, my TV sold me some sin.
Ugh.... I saw you last night with your handsome new dude. Kissing and smiling last night. I would rather have poisoned beaked sparrows. Pluck out my cryin' eyes.
La la la la la. Ooh hey hey hey. La la la la la. . Every year about this time the local gentry. Have a meeting in Chickasaw land. They all come to judge each and every entry.
It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta day. I was out choppin' cotton, and my brother was balin' hay. And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat.
Now, friends listen well, let me tell you a story. I remember just like yesterday. Of a footloose young lad who ran off with the circus. Much to his mama's dismay.
One heart is beatin' the other one's cheatin'. That's the way it always seems to be. . In one heart there's romance. The other there is no chance. Two hearts can't be in love and disagree.
I got you on my mind again. I tried to keep a smile on my face and make believe another never took my place. But just when I think I forgotten that's when I got you on my mind again.
Hey I'm just an old chunk of coal. But I'm gonna be a diamond some day. I'm gonna grow and glow till I'm so blue pure perfect. I'm gonna put a smile on everybody's face.
Out in the cold world and far away from home. some mother's boy is wanderin' all alone.. No one to guide him or keep his footsteps right. Some mother's boy is homeless tonight..
Look a-yonder comin', comin' down that railroad track. Hey, look a-yonder comin', comin' down that railroad track. It's the Orange Blossom Special bringin' my baby back.
I walked out to the graveyard. Down by the Church of God. I looked upon the one I love. That would soon be covered with sod. . Up along the Ohio river.
Traveling down this long lonesome highway. I'm so lonesome I could cry. Memories of how we once loved each other. And now you are saying goodbye. . On and on I'll follow my darling.
OLE SLEW FOOT. (Howard Hausey - Eddie Manney). '59 Cave Music. . High on the mountain what do you see. Bear tracks bear tracks lookin' back at me. You better get your rifles boys before it's too late.
Farethee well Old Joe Clark. Farethee well I say. Farethee well Old Joe Clark. I'm bound go go away. . I will not go to Old Joe's house. I'll tell ya the reason why.
Written by dave bartholemew and pearl king.. . One night with you. Is what I'm now prayin'for. All the things that we two could plan. Would make my dreams come true.
