How many times have you heard someone say. If I had his money I would do things my way?. But little they know that's so hard to find. One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind.
The sweetest songs belong to lovers in the gloaming. The sweetest days are the days that used to be. The saddest words I ever heard were words of parting.
[G] A Prodigal son once [C] strayed from his [G] father. To travel a land of [A] hunger and [D] pain. And [G] now I can see the [C] end of my [G] journey.
I know not where on earth to find you. I know not how or when to start. I only know, I'm here without you. I've got pins and needles in my heart. . The days and night are growing longer.
Way back in the hills, when a boy, I once wandered. Buried deep in her grave lies the one that I love. She was called from this earth, a jewel for Heaven.
I have heard your stories about your fast trains. But now I'll tell you bout one all the southern folks have seen. She's the beauty of the southland listen to that whistle scream.
Jole Blon Delta flower you're my darling you're my sunshine. Oh I love you darling forever I love you promise I'll always be true. Oh ho ho ah ha ha. [ fiddle ].
Everybody's going out and having fun. I'm just a fool for staying home and having none. I can't get over how she set, set me free, oh lonesome me. . A bad mistake I'm making by just hanging 'round.
I wanna hear it again. Just the way it was back then. When my mama sang to me. It was love and harmony. In that old time sunshine song. . With the mellowing of years.
No one will ever know my heart is breaking. Although a million teardrops start to flow. I'll cry myself to sleep and wake up smiling. I'll miss you but no one will ever know.
Take that night train to Memphis. Take that night train to Memphis. And when you arrive at the station. I'll be right there to meet you. I'll be right there to greet you.
Tonight down here in the valley. I'm lonesome and oh how I feel. As I sit here alone in my cabin. I can see your mansion on the hill. . Do you recall when we parted.
The sunshine comes from lonesome valley. And all alone I must remain. While far away through lonesome valley. Comes a dying cry of the midnight train.
You left me baby a year ago. But I still love you, I'm mourning low. Lord I'm blue and so down hearted. That lonesome old river's my home. . I bought you diamonds, fine clothes to wear.
Low and lonely sad and blue. Thinking only of little you. Always trying to keep from crying. I'm low and lonely over you. . Do you miss me? Say you do.
Life is like a mountain railroad with an engineer that's brave. We must make the run successful, from the cradle to the grave. Watch the curves, the hills, the tunnels never falter, never quail.
Beside a new made grave heartbroken my love for her. Won't let me go away. And leave her there to sleep forever all alone beneath. That lonely mound of clay.
Why do you treat me as if I were only a friend?. What have I done that has made you so different and cold?. Sometimes I wonder if you'll be contented again.
In the evening, in the shadows,. I'll be waiting, in Louisi- an - a,. And when I hear your sweet voice,. I'll rejoice, I'll be happy,. And saving my kisses for you..
