It's snowing out there in the gloaming I've sat here and watched it all night. The kids will be thrilled when they awaken and look at the fields deep and white.
If I never love again I won't feel cheated you gave me more than I knew how to use. On the day we met my journey was completed. Even though my odden years won't be with you.
Once again it's twelve o'clock and you're still gone darling are you ever coming home. I don't mind this waiting for you while you're gone. But darling are you ever coming home.
[ Nat ]. I remember when I was a lad times were hard and things were bad. But there's a silver lining behind every cloud. Just poor people that's all we were tryin' to make a livin' out of black land dirt.
At last I found the way to free myself from you. And all the heartaches that you left to make me blue. I thought my world had ended when you said goodbye.
Lord bless your children who walk in perfection who manage to Master your will. Give them their share of sweet milk and wild honey. Provide bread of life till they're filled.
If you're weary from climbin' mountains. And you've been troubled with heavy rain. If you're drinkin' from a fountain. That never cleanses your thirsty dream.
Sing me a song of praise and glory help this wanderin' child to understand. That's when I close my eyes in sleep eternal I'll be clinging to a saving hand.
The bright array of city lights as far as I can see. The great white way shines through the night for lonely girls like me. A cabarete a honky tonk their flashing signs invite.
Cincinnati, Ohio, Cincinnati, Ohio. . One more hour and I'll be home. Close my eyes and rest my bones. Can't be more than a mile or so. From Cincinnati, Ohio, Cincinnati, Ohio.
Found some letters you wrote me this morning. And they told of the love we once knew. Now they're gone I'd burned them to ashes. Don't want nothing to remind me of you.
Though it happened long ago, the hurt just won't let go. And it's burning a hole in my mind. I see her and I see you and the things we used to do. And it's burning a hole in my mind.
Well I'm tired of travellin' down this rocky old road. This old heart of mine is so hurtin' from a heavy load. Only Jesus knows the way my heart went wrong.
Well it was barely past eleven when my pills kicked in. That cabernet didnt hurt my cause as I stumbled down the rue. Not even half as drunk as these strangers I pass.
Jesus, touch my sinful soul. And let my cry for peace come to a hush. Let my footsteps follow Thee. And help me walk across the bridge of love. . Over the river of life's intentions.
(You were born to sing). There's only one thing to do when you find out that you were born to sing. No matter what your age you gotta get on the stage cause you were born to sing.
It makes no difference if you're rich or poor or if you're smart or dumb. A woman's place in this old world is under some man's thumb. And if you're born a woman you're born to be hurt.
I've heard them say a heartache's just a memory as soon as you forget it disaapears. I tried but I can't hide my heart from misery for I remember between each tear.
I just can't get it through my head you love another now instead. Can't make myself believe we're really through. I'm walking up and down the hall talking to a silent wall.
Among the local taverns there'll be a slack in business. Cause Jesse's drinkin' came before the groceries and the rent. Among the local women there'll be a slack in cheatin'.
