Marching across the desert sands. Condemned to drift from land to land. No food or water or heaven's rain. So many tears and so much pain. It's a long road the nights are so cold.
Just try being lonely and you'll know just how I feel. I saw you with your new love and oh it hurt me so. Funny how I see your face everywhere I go. You smiled and looked to be so happy as you passed by.
Only a tramp was Lazurus' sad fate, he who laid down at the rich man's gate. He begged for the crumbs from the rich man to eat. He was only a tramp found dead on the street.
A little boy is what my daddy wanted a little girl just didn't fit his plans. To help him on the road when he was on it cause daddy was a truck drivin' man.
I would walk out of my friends to get to you. If I lose them all for your love I'll do that too. Guess they mean well when they tell me what to do. Oh but they don't know how far I'll go to get to you.
Together again my tears have stopped falling the long lonely nights are now at an end. The key to my heart you hold in your hand. And nothing else matters we're together again.
Yeah baby I got your letter I knew you're right. I knew you wanna come home to me some cold and lonely night. You say you'll be a good boy if I'll just hold you tight.
Well mama go a tippy tippy toeing through the house. Gotta see what's the matter with the baby. It's been a bawlin' and a squallin' and a kickin' on the wall.
When burdens seem to overcome, there's a higher power. Who's able and refuses none, there's a higher power. Then why ask men to help you through, there's a higher power.
There are three ways three ways three ways to love you it's true. One is the wrong way one is the right way but the best is the way I love you. . One is the wrong way like some people do.
I know your head is hurtin' and you're sleepy. The night was rough and you've had too much beer. Here's an ice cold towel the coffee's perkin'. Prepare yourself for what you're 'bout to hear.
You take me out in splendor then go home to her. Whisper words so tender then go home to her. Though the things we do are wrong I'm not sure I can go on.
A memory often comes to visit. As I lay in my bed late at night. Of mama along in the kitchen. Mending clothes by a little all night. . She sewed till her fingers were slowing.
I wish I had button eyes and a red felt nose. Shaggy cotton skin and just one set of clothes. Sittin' on the shelf in the local department store. With no dreams to dream and nothing to be sorry for.
We were sent to this world. Now we see all the action. The man in hate's lair, commanding us. His statement to share. . Nation free!. We're fighting for.
Now that all my dreams come true. They seem a frozen false reality. And though my hopes have not all gone. It's you to bring me out of all this vanity.
I've always had the power in me. Never lost control of will. Broken promises and lies. Too many pass before my eyes. All I ever wanted was you. But you left me now we're through.
(We need to see our vision-we can make it come true. Living out our creation, no more sins to pay). We need to see our vision, we can make it come true.
Take my hand now, I will lead you far away. From our homeland, to a place we shall not stay. But for moments, until your crying fades. And the haunting, of all those who paid.
