I talked to you today,. About all the troubled times,. When nothing goes,. Nothing goes away. And all the things. You've told me to believe in.. I'm alone,.
I got a hole in my pocket. I got a tear in my heart. I got a door I can't unlock it. I live on shadows in the dark. . I hear the sound of a heartbeat.
Misty sunrise in my hometown. Rows of cotton bout knee high. Mrs. Baker down the dirt road. Still got clothes out on the line. Erwin Nichols there with Judge Lee.
She is smiling. Then she takes your hand. And with a kiss she lies. That's just how she cries. . She is dancing. Up above a flame. And without wings she flies.
I heard that warnin' whistle blowin'. I knew that train was comin' fast. The sound of the wheels was hypnotisin'. I could not move from it's path. I just stood there, glued to the tracks.
Sometimes I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders. And it brings me to my knees. Sometimes, I feel as though the things I know I can't control.
By the banks of the river, where the willows hang down,. And the wild birds a'warble with a low moaning sound,. Down in the hollow where the water runs cold,.
Just south of town 'bout a half mile down past Cemetary Ridge. Out behind the levy where the moss grows heavy there's a one lane wooden bridge. That leads to a backwoods beer joint bar they call the Loaded Dice.
Seventeen years, how could we know?. And thirteen years to make a flower grow. Tears that fell from your eyes. Were the one's heaven cries. For the children left to walk alone.
I've been humbled by the glory and the power of his love. When I've stumbled and I've fallen, he's been there to pick me up. In the face of all temptation, been the strength to stand my ground.
Am I dreaming or is that the morning sunlight shining in. I can't believe it, I was so sure my world was comin' to an end. I may never live to see the day your memory lets me go.
They fired me from my job. I worked at the slaughterhouse. They said I was one of the best gutters they've ever seen. But they fired me and they're gonna pay.
Blue moon you saw me standing alone. Without a dream in my heart. Without a love of my own. Blue moon, you knew just what I was there for. You heard me saying a prayer for.
Little darlin', love is not a crime. If it is then let me do my time. Lock my heart up, throw away the key. I'm a prisoner that don't wanna go free. .
Hey Mr Bartender, give me a drink. I wanna cold wet glass with bubbles in it. And that doesn't mean I can't handle. Anything stronger now, just think I'll wait a while.
Granddaddy used to sit me on his knee. And tell me how it was in the old country. Famine and floods and crops that failed. I'd listen for hours as he told his tale.
Sometimes my head is harder than a mule's. Around my friends, I'm a certified fool. But I'd walk through fire if you asked me to. That's what you love about me lovin' you.
