I wandered so aimless life filled with sin
I wouldn't let my dear saviour in Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night Praise the Lord I saw the light. I saw the light I saw the light No more darkness no more night Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight Praise the Lord I saw the light. Just like a blind man I wandered along Worries and fears I claimed for my own Then like the blind man that God gave back his sight Praise the Lord I saw the light. I saw the light I saw the light No more darkness no more night Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight Praise the Lord I saw the light. I was a fool to wander and a-stray Straight is the gate and narrow the way Now I have traded the wrong for the right Praise the Lord I saw the light. I saw the light I saw the light No more darkness no more night Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight Praise the Lord I saw the light. |

I hear the train a comin'
It's rolling round the bend And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when, I'm stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin' on But that train keeps a rollin' on down to San Antone.. When I was just a baby my mama told me "Son, Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns." But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die When I hear that whistle blowin', I hang my head and cry.. I bet there's rich folks eating in a fancy dining car They're probably drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars. Well I know I had it coming, I know I can't be free But those people keep a movin' And that's what tortures me... Well if they freed me from this prison, If that railroad train was mine I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line Far from Folsom prison, that's where I want to stay And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away... |

You've painted up your lips
And rolled and curled your tinted hair Ruby are you contemplating Going out somewhere The shadow on the wall Tells me the sun is going down Oh Ruby Don't take your love to town It wasn't me That started that crazy Asian war But I was proud to go And do my patriotic chore And yes, it's true that I'm not the man I used to be Oh, Ruby I still need some company It's hard to love a man Whose legs are bent and paralyzed That my wants and needs of a woman of your age Ruby, I realized Oh Ruby Don't take your love to town She's leaving now cause I just heard the slamming of the door The way I know I've heard it Some 100 times before And if I could move I'd get my gun And put her in the ground Oh Ruby Don't take your love to town Oh Ruby for God's sake turn around |

I have the invitation that you sent me
You wanted me to see you change your name I couldn't stand to see you wed another But dear I hope you're happy just the same. Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel That should be ringing now for you and me Down the aisle with someone else you're walking Those wedding bells will never ring for me. --- Instrumental --- I planned a little cottage in the valley I even brought a little band of gold I thought someday I'll place it on your finger But now the future looks so dark and cold. I fancy that I see a bunch of roses A blossom from an orange tree in your hair And while the organ plays I'll love you truly Please let me pretend that I am there. Wedding bells are ringing in the chapel Ever since the day you set me free I knew someday that you would wed another But wedding bells will never ring for me... |

Well, I was born a coal miner's daughter, In a cabin, on a hill in butcher holler, We were poor, but we had love, That's the one thing daddy made sure of, He shoveled coal to make a poor man's dollar. My daddy worked all night in the Van Lear Cole Mines, All day long in a field a-hoein' corn, Mommy rocked the babies at night, and read The Bible by the coal-oil light, And everything would start all over come break of mornin'. Daddy loved and raised 8 kids on a miner' pay, Mommy scrubbed our clothes on a wash board every day, Why, I seen her fingers bleed, to complain, there was no need, She'd smile in mommy's understanding way. In the summertime we didn't have shoes to wear, But in the winter time, we'd all get a brand new pair, From a mail-order catalog, money mad from selling a hog, Daddy all ways managed to get the money somewhere. Yeah, I'm proud to be a coal miner's daughter, I remember well, the well where I drew water, The work we done was hard, at night we'd sleep 'cause we were tired, I never thought of leavin' Butcher Holler. Well, a lot of things have changed since way back then, And it's so good to be back home again, Not much left but the floor, nothin' lives here anymore, 'Cept the memories of a coal miner's daughter. |

I was all right for a while
I could smile for a while But when I saw you last night You held my hand so tight When you stopped to say hello And though you wished me well You couldn't tell That I'd been Crying over you Crying over you Then you said So long Left me standing all alone Alone and crying, crying, crying, crying It's hard to understand That the touch of your hand Can start me crying I thought that I was over you But it's true, so true I love you even more Than I did before But darling, what can I do Oh you don't love me And I'll always be Crying over you Crying over you Yes, now you're gone And from this moment on I'll be crying, crying, crying, crying I'm crying, crying Oh-oh-oh-over you |

Now I lay me down to sleep
And if I sleep, perhaps I'll dream. If I dream, I'll be with you, In the shelter of your arms. I pray that god will lengthen night, And grant me time before the light. For the light of day will take me From the shelter of your arms. And though I know it's just a dream, A dream that soon must end, The arms I feel, I know are real, And I'm happy, once again. If I die, while I am asleep, I pray my dreams he'll let me keep, And carry me through eternity In the shelter of your arms. And though I know it's just a dream, A dream that soon must end, The arms I feel, I know are real And I'm happy, once again. And if I die while I am asleep, I pray my dreams he'll let me keep, And carry me through eternity In the shelter of your arms |

(There goes my everything)
I hear footsteps slowly walkin', As they gently walk across a lonely floor. And a voice is softly sayin', "Darling, this will be goodbye forever more." There goes my reason for livin'. There goes the one of my dreams. There goes my only possesion. There goes my everything. As my mem'ry turns back the pages, I can see the happy years we had before. Now the love that kept this ol' heart beatin', Has been shattered by the closin' of the door. There goes my reason for livin'. There goes the one of my dreams. There goes my only possesion. There goes my everything. There goes my reason for livin'. There goes the one of my dreams. There goes my only possesion. There goes my everything. There goes my only possesion. There goes my everything... |

Every little thing I try to do Your always there to lend a helping hand dear But most of all I love you cause you're you No matter what may be the style or season I know your love will always see me through I love you for a hundred- thousand reasons But most of all I love you cause you're you I love you because my heart is lighter Every time I'm walking by your side I love you because the future's brighter The glow to happiness you've opened wide No matter what the world may say about me I know your heart will always be true I love you for the way you never doubt me But most of all I love you cause you're you |

I can't stop loving you so I've made up my mind
To live in memory of old lonesome times I can't stop wanting you it's useless to say So I'll just live my life in dreams of yesterday Those happy hours that we once knew though long ago they still make me blue They say that time heels a broken heart But time has stood still since we've been apart I can't stop loving you... |

Faithless love like a river flows.
Raindrops falling on a "broken rose" Down in some valley where nobody goes. And the night falls in Like a cold dark wind. Faithless love like a river flows. Faithless love, where did I go wrong Was it telling stories in a heartbreak song? Where nobody's right, nobody was wrong. Faithless love will find you, And its misery entwine you. Faithless love, where did I go wrong. Well I guess I'm standing in the hall of broken dreams; That's the way it sometimes goes. And every new love never turns out like it seems; Guess the feeling comes and goes. Faithless love like a river flows. Raindrops falling on a "broken rose" Down in some valley where nobody goes. Faithless love has found me, Thrown its chilly arms around me. Faithless love like a river flows. |

Why does the sun go on shining?
Why does the sea rush to shore? Don't they know it's the end of the world caus you don't love me anymore Why do the birds go on singing? Why do the stars glow above? Don't they know it's the end of the world it ended when I lost your love I wake up in the morning and I wonder Why everythings the same as it was I can't understand no I can't understand How life goes on the way it does Why does my heart go on beating Why do these eyes of mine cry? Don't they know it's the end of the world it ended when you said good bye Why does my heart go on beating? Why do these eyes of mine cry? Don't they Know it's the end of the world it ended when you said good bye |

Many years have come and gone
Since I wandered from my home In those Oklahoma hills where I was born Many a page of life has turned Many a lesson I have learned And I feel that in those hills I still belong. Way down yonder in the Indian nation Ride my pony on the reservation In the Oklahoma hills where I was born A way down yonder in the Indian nation A cowboy's life is my occupation In the Oklahoma hills where I was born. As I sit here today many miles I am away From a place I rode my pony through the draw Where the oak and blackjack trees Kiss the playful prairie breeze In the Oklahoma hills where I was born. Way down yonder in the Indian nation Ride my pony on the reservation In the Oklahoma hills where I was born A way down yonder in the Indian nation A cowboy's life is my occupation In the Oklahoma hills where I was born. --- Instrumental --- As I turn life a page To the land of a great old sage In the Oklahoma hills where I was born Where the Blackbony River flows In the snow white cotton grows In the Oklahoma hills where I was born. Way down yonder in the Indian nation Ride my pony on the reservation In the Oklahoma hills where I was born A way down yonder in the Indian nation A cowboy's life is my occupation In the Oklahoma hills where I was born... |

Listen to the jingle, the rumble and the roar
As she glides along the woodland, o'er the hills and by the shore Hear the rush of the mighty engine, hear the lonesome hobo's call He's riding through the jungle on the Wabash Cannnonball Now the western states are dandies, so the southern people say From Chicago and St. Louis and Peoria by the way To the lake of Minnesota, where the rippling waters flow No chances to be taken on the Wabash Cannonball Listen to the jingle, the rumble and the roar As she glides along the woodland, o'er the hills and by the shore Hear the rush of the mighty engine, hear the lonesome hobo's call He's riding through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball She pulled in to the station one cold December day As she rolled up to the platform, you could hear all the people say "Now there's a gal from Birmingham, she's long and she's tall She came down from Georgia on the Wabash Cannonball" Listen to the jingle, the rumble and the roar As she glides along the woodland, o'er the hills and by the shore Hear the rush of the mighty engine, hear the lonesome hobo's call He's riding through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball Now here's to Daddy Claxton, may his name forever stand And always be remembered in the courts of all the land His earthly race is over and as the curtain falls We'll carry him back to Dixie on the Wabash Cannonball Wabash Cannonball Listen to the jingle, the rumble and the roar As she glides along the woodland, o'er the hills and by the shore Hear the rush of the mighty engine, hear the lonesome hobo's call He's riding through the jungle on the Wabash Cannonball |

Hear that lonesome whippoorwill
He sounds too blue to fly The midnight train is whining low I'm so lonesome I could cry I've never seen a night so long When time goes crawling by The moon just went behind a cloud To hide its face and cry Did you ever see a robin weep When leaves begin to die? Like me he's lost the will to live I'm so lonesome I could cry The silence of a falling star Lights up a purple sky And as I wonder where you are I'm so lonesome I could cry |

I saw you last night in my dreams, love
I awoke as the clock was strikin' four But I didn't think that I'd meet you And now as you walk through the door Come sit here with me, little darlin' And allow me to sing I love you, sweetheart, I love you Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey As you stood there before me, I wondered If I'd ever get you off of my mind And the tears filled my eyes when you vanished With your golden curls that hung down behind Come sit here with me, little darlin' And allow me to sing I love you, sweetheart, I love you Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey Won't you come back to me in my dreams, love? Some dark night when I'm here all alone Would you tell me sweetheart that you love me? Some dark night when I'm here all alone Come sit here with me, little darlin' And allow me to sing I love you, sweetheart, I love you Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey |

Who did you say it was brother?
Who was it fell by the way? When whiskey and blood run together Did you hear anyone pray? CHORUS I didn't hear nobody pray, dear brother I didn't hear nobody pray I heard the crash on the highway But, I didn't hear nobody pray. When I heard the crash on the highway I knew what it was from the start I went to the scene of destruction And a picture was stamped on my heart. There was whiskey and blood all together Mixed with glass where they lay Death played her hand in destruction But I didn't hear nobody pray. I wish I could change this sad story That I am now telling you But there is no way I can change it For somebody's life is now through. Their soul has been called by the Master They died in a crash on the way And I heard the groans of the dying But, I didn't hear nobody pray. CHORUS |
