Life is tough and full'a stuff. Life is hard as rock. No one around to pull you out. No one to stop the clock. . Now we don't need no chaperones. All policemen please go home.
While you are out beneath the moonlit sky. I sit here and stare at the wall. I think of you sweetheart and days gone by. And I know two more years is all.
Nestled in the heart of the Tennessee hills. Midst peaceful pines 'neath the rocks and the rills. There stands my old homestead of long years ago. Brings back sweet memories of the one I loved so.
Come pretty young girls give me your attention. To these few lines I've tried to write. About a man who I won't mention. Who courted of his charming bride.
Here's the story of two childhood sweethearts. And the love that you shared still untold. How our simple little vows they were broken. And the love that I treasured more than gold.
Come take me by my trembling hand. And hold me close to you. And think of all the days gone by. The days when love was true. . Come go with me to the old depot.
In a little country village. I met a man and he was blind. As I helped him cross the highway. I cried thy burdens are greater than mine. . I can see the light of day.
I wait for you dear all night long. It seems you never do get home. I fall asleep at the break of day. Just to drive these awful blues away. . Wake up sweetheart, the night has passed.
My heart is breaking and there's tears in my eyes. The heartaches you caused me has wrecked my young life. The love that you promised to me was untrue.
Is it true that I've lost you. Am I not the only one. After all this pain and sorrow. Darling think of what you've done. . Heart to heart dear how I need you.
Out in the cold world and far away from home. Some mother's boy is wandering all alone. No one to guide him or keep his footsteps right. Some mother's boy is homeless tonight.
Listen poor sinner you're drifting away. From the dear Saviour who's pleading today. What will you do when the Saviour comes nigh. When the pale horse and his rider go by.
I left my old home in the mountains. And the only friends I ever had. And while I rambled this world over. My heart felt so lonely and sad. . I'm going back to the old home.
Sweetheart I recall the day I first met you. I wonder if you remember the same. We talked of the love we shared for each other. And longed for the day we'd change your sweet name.
Theres a beautiful land way over the sea. A place was prepared by Jesus for me. Im living the life Ill not go astray. And be with my Lord in heaven someday.
Many years now have passed since I saw my darling last. But she waits alone there just for me. I'll be going back some day and I never more will stray.
Well, God spoke to Moses at the burning bush. Burning bush, Lord the burning bush. God spoke to Moses at the burning bush. Saying I am the Lord, thy God.
You look at me and wonder, you look at me and doubt,. Darling your eyes are asking, "Will the flame burn out?". Well, no one is sure of sun shine, no one is sure of dawn,.
Absolue truth, absolute reality,. its those thigns that dont change,. those things that dont fade away,. no matter how much you dont believe them,. no matter how hard you try to wish them away..
The date was set, this night was saved. (the music played). For holy vows to be unmade. Silent bouquets fell to the floor. (with no remorse). Forsaking what they're living for.
