I don't talk to Him that much. I know I never pray enough. Ooh, but I don't know where I would be. Without Jesus here with me. . I don't know why I'm still here.
I'm packing up to sing my songs, all these towns blend into one,. I'm somewhere in Madrid.. I got here on crowded trains with old guitars and a famous name,.
She was from North Louisiana in the town of Mer Rouge. I fell in love in a week or two,. It didn't take long to love a girl like that. We were barely ten in the cotton fields.
You built a house with your two hands. You built a fire down in the sand. You drive no matter where we go. And I tried but it's so hard to get my mother to discard.
Not gonna worry bout it here. I left my troubles all behind. You know I don't where we're going. If you ask me, just wanna get the car and drive. . You know baby, I'm down for anything.
A past that's sprinkled with the blues. A few old dreams that I can't use. Who'll buy my mem'ries. Of things that used to be. There were the smiles before the tears.
Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer. That calls me from a world of care. And bids me at my Father's throne. Make all my wants and wishes known.
I've been living a new way. Of life that I love so. But I can see the clouds are gathering. And the storm will wreck our home. . For last night he held you tightly.
Walk through this world with me,. Go where I go. Share all my my dreams with me,. I need you so. In life we search and some of us find. I've looked for you a long, long time.
Well in North Carolina, way back in the hills. Me and my old pappy had a hand in a still. We brewed white lightnin' 'til the sun went down. Then he'd fill him a jug and he'd pass it around.
Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why. You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby. Lord, I can't help but love you 'til the day that I die. So tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby why.
Write a song. Write a song about the very song you sing. Pen a line about a line within a line. Write a song about a song. Think a thought. Think a thought about the very thought you think.
This mornin the pews were hay bales. The pulpit, a saddle thrown over a stall. The floor just a carpet of sawdust. The baptistery just a rusty ol' traul.
Well, it's cheek to cheek and it's face to face. If I told ya once, I told ya twice. East is east, west is west. Fire is fire an' ice is ice. . That wind's gonna blow tomorrow.
You left me and you went away. You said you'd be back and just that day. You've broken your promise and you left me here alone. I don't know why you did dear, but I do know that you're gone.
Everybody says she is a wild card, a heart ache,. The kinda girl, you never know, where she's gonna land. Oh now she's going out, and making friends,.
As I went now for to take a little walk,. I came upon that Wild Bill Jones. He was a'walkin' and a'talkin' by my true lover's side. And I bid him to leave her alone.
Whiskey River, take my mind. Don't let her memory torture me. Whiskey River, don't run dry. You're all I got, take care of me. . Whiskey River, take my mind.
Sometimes I don't know where. This dirty road is taking me. Sometimes I can't even see the reason why. I guess I keep a-gamblin'. Lots of booze and lots of ramblin'.
