Made his way out from the low lands The son of a preacher man Then he seemed to lose direction On his way to the promised land, no no
It started with a woman And it ended in a bottle fight The jury would not forgive him When he took a man within an inch of his life
When they took away his freedom Buried his soul aside, no no
In the company of strangers You find the enemy within, no And the walls that capture evil Keep the faith from getting in In the company of strangers
So he sits behind these gray walls Staring at the yellow moon His dreams lie shattered all around him Casting shadows into his room, baby
When they took away his freedom They buried his soul aside, no no
In the company of strangers You find the enemy within, no And the walls that capture evil Keep the faith from getting in In the company of strangers
So the years passed by one day Steps outside to the blinding sun No money in his pockets, and his clothes ????? But under his shirt he wears a gun, no no
When they buried him the very next morning ????? that went wrong In a graveyard full of outlaws In a stranger's ?????
In the company of strangers You find the enemy within, no no And the walls that capture evil Keep the faith from getting in
In the company of strangers You find the enemy within And the walls that capture evil Keep the faith from getting in
In the company, in the company of strangers Listen, I've gotta get out of here, I've gotta get out of here...
I was down and out, and living on my luck Even that was wearing thin Turned around one day and you were standing there, babe You made my life begin
You're the only reason I'm living I'm loving every minute with you, yeah You're the reason I'm living And I owe it all to you
I was lonely, I was down, and I was broke 'Bout as low as a man could be You picked me up and you saved me, baby 'Cause you believed in me, yes you did
You're the only reason I'm living I'm loving every minute with you, yeah You're the reason I'm living And I owe it all to you, yeah
I'm looking back all things going down You made me strong Baby, showed me how to get along You know you did
Now I stand up straight and hold my head up high I'm as proud as any man could be See I've got everything that a man could want to have Because of you and me, whoa oh
You're the only reason I'm living I'm loving every minute with you, yes I am You're the reason I'm living And I owe it all to you, yeah
You're the only reason I'm living Loving every minute with you You're the reason I'm living And I owe it all to you, yeah
Yes, I owe it You know I owe it Baby, baby, baby, baby
ABANDONED AND ALONE (Written by Dave Colwell, and ????? Lister)
A fugitive soul out on parole Standing alone, no, where can I go? In a world so cold with no hand to hold Searching through my heart, yeah, but nobody knows
And if I wondered why, maybe I would break If I wondered how much more I can take If I changed my mind, who could I tell? If I made the time, I know that well
I'm abandoned and alone, ????? Side against a side, no place to hide I'm abandoned and alone, no easy road Leaves a man ?????
You know it does, baby
Just follow the dream, I'll do what I can I've got to be strong, you know, you know I got, I got a plan
If I wondered why, maybe I would break If I wondered how much more I can take If I changed my mind, who could I tell? If I changed the time, I know that well
I'm abandoned and alone, ????? Side against a side, no place to hide I'm abandoned and alone, no easy road Leaves a man ?????
If I wondered why, maybe I would break If I wondered how much more I can take If I changed my mind, who could I tell? If I made the time, I know that well
I'm abandoned and alone, no easy road Side against a side, no place to hide I'm abandoned and alone, no easy road Leaves a man ?????
I'm abandoned and alone, ????? Side against a side, no place to hide I'm abandoned and alone, no easy road Leaves a man ?????
Well, I'm deep down I saw you baby in the corner of my eye You were looking oh so fine You drove by me in a purple Cadillac Heading for a friend of mine I saw you later down on highway 41 Doin' ‘bout a hundred and three I tried to catch ya, but baby I lost ya Baby won't you come home with me I want to take you Down down down I'm so deep down in love (down down down) Babe you got me fallin' (down down down) Babe I'm so deep down in love
Common baby won't you take me with you I need a shot of rhythm and blues I plan to stop, but the band is so hot Ain't got nothing to lose Oh mama mama lookin' so cool I want to make you mine all mine You know baby you're driving me crazy You're driving me out of my mind I'm gonna take you, down down down Babe I'm so deep down in love (down down down) Babe you got me fallin' (down down down)
(down down down) Babe I'm so deep down in love (down down down) You know you got me goin' (down down down) Babe I'm so deep down in love, no, no, no You know that i want ya, got to have ya, want ya, need ya
I'm making sure Another late night drags on Just one more drink But you know I'm wrong Sooner or later When everyone's gone You just shake your head And take my hand
You seem to know what it takes me Time to tell But then you know me Suprprises me how well You make me an offer That I can't refuse Take my arm and walk away
{Chorus}: Help me find my way home Along this rocky road 'Cause I can't carry on Will you head me to my bed Ease my aching head
Take me where I belong
Sometimes you smile At the clothes that I wear You listen to reason When I just don't care It's bringing me down Then I start to fall You catch my heart And I don't let it go
{Chorus}
As I see you lay your head I'm glad it's next to mine, mine, whoa
