Six foot six stood on the ground, weighted 235 pounds. But I saw that giant of a man brought down to his knees by love. He was the kind of man who would gamble on love.
I'm gonna tell you a story that's all about. This job I had one time as a talent scout, hmm.. I had a hard day at the office and the boss wasn't in town.
Well now, listen people let me tell you some news. I'll sing a song called the crude oil blues. We're low on heat 'n' all. We're low on gas. And I'm so cold I'm about to freeze myself.
Well my throat was dry and it was getting late. I was at this bar on the interstate. When this guy with this bird on his shoulder walked through the door.
Well if I can keep it on the ground. When I put that hammer down. Then I'll be Texas bound and a flyin'. . I've got my 10 in the wind. Let it all hang out again.
Take your left foot;. Put it in front of the right.. Now, take your right foot,. Put 'er down in front of the left.. Whoa! Son, you are on your way, now;.
I went to the reunion. Of the class of '84. And I saw my old sweetheart. Who said she just divorced. . We talked about the good days. And the life we once planed.
It started with one look kept on getting stronger. What I've been holding back won't be held back any longer. Let me say to you what my heart's been longing to.
Once a mother stood on a corner. Tears betrayed her painted smile. She was trading in her halo. For just enough to feed her child. . Then an old man, cold and hungry.
Here we are out of cigarettes holding hands and yawning look how late it gets. Two sleepy people by dawn's early light and too much in love to say goodnight.
Turn the world around the other way. Back it up and stop on yesterday. Back to before that silly fight. And give me a chance to make things right. I said some things I didn't mean to say.
Twas the dawn of a beautiful beautiful day. When Jesus came into my heart. He came in the darkness and blackness of night. And bade all my sins to depart.
See them tumbling down pledgin' their love to the ground. Lonely but free I'll be found. Driftin' along with a tumbling tumbleweed. Cares of the past are behind nowhere to go but I'll find.
There is someone walking behind you turn around look at me. There is someone watching your footsteps turn around look at me. There is someone who really loves you here's my heart in my hand.
Troubled in mind, I'm little blue. Bet you I won't be blue always. 'Cause that ol' sun's gonna shine. On Jerry Lee Lewis's back door step someday. . I'm gonna lay my head.
It's too soon to know if I can forget her. My heart's been broken into many pieces. And it's too soon to know. . Time passes slow will I ever know. If I can forget her and not let her show.
The prairie sun sends down its ray to warm my heart through every day. The starlight beam that guides my way is just the touch of God's hand. The scattered pearls of morning dew the rainbow mist on hills of blue.
I wish I could come back to you dear. I know that you want me to. But too much waters run under that old bridge. There's too many rivers between me and you.
Hang down your head Tom Dooley hang down your head and cry. Hang down your head Tom Dooley poor boy you're bound to die. . I met her on the mountain and there I took her life.
Well today I started loving you again. And I'm right back where I've really always been. I got over you just long enough to let my heartache mend. Then today I started loving you again.
