How many years how many rollin' stones above. Liky a Gypsy I have roamed from place to place. Fortune never came to me how happy I would be. Just to look again upon your smiling face.
Our meeting's a pleasure. And parting is grief. But a false hearted lover. Is worse than a thief. . A thief can but rob you. And take what you save. But a false hearted lover.
I'm waiting to hear you call me darling. I'm waiting to hear you call me dear. You know that I have always loved you. Don't make me lonely all these years.
Each day I get so lonely while living here below. My Saviours waiting patiently, I'm planning soon to go. I'm on a firm foundation thats built with Gods own hand.
I'm on my way to Canaan's land. I'm on my way to Canaan's land. I'm on my way to Canaan's land. I'm on my way, praise the Lord, I'm on my way. . If sister don't go, it won't hinder me.
Oh I was lost in the darkness and I wandered astray. With no one to help me see along on my way. Until I heard Jesus calling saying. Come unto me and I'm traveling on and on.
Tonight I'm all alone, no place to call my own. Don't have no one to love me anymore. I'm gonna pack up my grip and take a long, long trip. Back to the one that I love so.
For many long years through this world I have roamed. Not thinking of the day last to come. But now I have changed, and I want the world to know. That I'm going to make heaven my home.
Now this is a story about the young man from Natchez Mississippi. Whose father took a steamboat called the Delta Queen to New Orleans. And got killed in a poker game.
Now you just told me that you're leaving. On the next train coming down. I love you dear but I won't follow. I just think I'll stay around. . For I know someday you'll want me.
I've slipped around, dear, two-timing you. Having fun now, like some guys do. But now I'm sorry and now I'm true. Forgive me, darling, its up to you. .
I'll never love another now that you've gone away. And left me here to grieve dear all alone. It seems, I always lose my dear no matter how I try. I'll never love another until the day I die.
I used to sit alone at night and worry little darling. For I thought you meant the world to me. But now things have changed and those days are gone forever.
Don't think that I'll be hangin' 'round while you're havin' fun. I won't sit there cryin' over you. Well from now on when you step out I'll tell you what I'll do.
You spurned the love I gave you, darling. A love you once was proud to own. You found someone whom you love better. And in my dreams I walk alone. . I'll just pretend that I don't love you.
I'll be on that good road some day I'll be on that good road some day. That same old train's gonna come back again and roll all my blues away. . Now darlin' you can't love one darlin' you can't love two.
Close your eyes, close the door. You don't have to worry anymore. 'Cause I'll be your baby tonight. . Well that mockingbird is gonna sail away. We're gonna forget it.
Are you going to be. A saint on that shore. Are the center left far behind?. . Don't you think of your soul. And want to be saved. Don't you want to go to Heaven sometime?.
One night as I rambled down by the sea shore. And wind, it did whistle and the waters did roar. I heard a fair maiden make a pitiful sound. It sounded so lonesome in the waters around.
Tonight I'm sad my heart is weary. Wondering if I'm wrong or right. To think about you though you left me. I wonder where you are tonight. . The rain is cold and slowly falling.
