I know you fled. You got afraid and ran away. But didn't I do. All that I could to make you stay. . Flawless in fact. The way that I act around you. So don't come and say.
There's smoke down by the river. Hear the cannon and the drum. I've got one thing to ask you honey. Can you run?. . You know I hate to ask so late. But the moment's finally come.
From Tampa Florida's pride and joy. To California shame. She left home and came out west. And changed her Christian name. . She thumbed her way for seven days.
I see the town where we were born. I see the place we were raised. I see all the things you wanted that I never gave. I see sadness. I see sorrow. I see pain on your face.
To every silver cowboy who rode the silver screen. Do you remember ridin' through the strand. And do you remember me I'm the front row kid. Who galloped right behind you 'til the end.
Now the music is playin'. In a whiskey saloon. It comes through my window. Like a favorite tune. . I could walk down the stairway. I could walk down the street.
SPECIAL SONG FOR WANDA. WRITERS HAROLD AND DON REID. . Wanda was alone at night while he was somewhere servin' A Navy wife with too much spare time on her hands His letters were a comfort and I think she really loved him But paper words don't fill the space when someone needs a man. And I'd just like to sing a special song for Wanda Cause Wanda was a special friend of mine And somewhere makin' up his bed in Newport News Virginia I hope Wanda hears my song and plays it one more time. Wanda gave me everything a body ever needed But a body's needs will sometimes lead a soul to sin She was only lonesome a wife on leave of duty She went down in history and probably will again. And I'd just like to sing a special song for Wanda Cause Wanda was a special friend of mine And somewhere makin' up his bed in Newport News Virginia I hope Wanda hears my song and plays it one more time. I hope Wanda hears my song and plays it one more time....
Risk my soul, test my life. For my bread. Spend my time, lost in space. Am I dead?. . Let the river flow. Through my callused hands. And take me from my own.
Solomon was the son of the Gentile adulteress. Bathsheba and David, Israel's greatest king. As king, he built the temple that God would not let his father build.
A runaway was found today dyin' in the ally. He didn't have a name, a number or a home. They found him cold as ice, he was feelin' no pain. His destination was termination, a dead end situation.
Stand up and shout. . Stand up and shout. Stand up, stand up. Stand up and let it out. Stand up and shout. Stand up, stand up, stand up. . I know what you want and what you're thinking.
David, son of Jesse. Shepherd to his father's sheep. Played the harp when Saul got weary. Rocked the giant till he was fast asleep. . People prayed when Saul killed thousands.
At the end of a dream. If you know where I mean. When the mist just starts to clear. . In a similar way. At the end of today. I could feel the sound of writing on the wall.
The greatest Christmas present. Is something you cant buy. . When World War II was over. We trimmed the tree alone. But we saved the star for daddy. 'Cause daddy was coming home.
Got a ticket for a ride. Never stop until I'm satisfied. It's a party on the sun. Feel the heat coming from my gun. . Flying high on rock and roll. Like a fever burning in my soul.
Somebody new will be coming along. Somebody new will be coming along. Before the last one is good and gone. Somebody new will be coming along. Somebody new will be coming along.
Someday when it's all over and they come to carry me. And you're walkin' slow and wearin' black with the rest of the family. And the choir stands to sing a song, make sure it's one of mine.
Gimme blood, gimme blood. Gimme blood, gimme blood pollution. Gimme blood, gimme blood. Gimme blood, gimme blood pollution. . Bad mornings, good nights.
It's a small, small world. Fancy meetin' you. I don't believe I've seen you since. The day we both left school. . Well, man, I can't believe it. I've been wonderin' where you were.
In my youth I was enchanted. Took the good, good life for granted. Thought the better things were handed out for free. But since then I've learned that living.
