Bill Monroe - RCA Country Legends (2002) by Bill Monroe (보컬) on maniadb.com

Good morning captain, good morning son
Do you need another mule skinner out on your new road line?

I like working I'm rolling all the time
I can pop my initials on a mule any old time

I'm going to town, what do you want me to bring you back?
Bring a walker and a cane and a John B. Stetson hat

Hey little water boy, bring that bucket around
And if you don't like your job set your water bucket down

No answer to my letter
To soothe my aching heart
Oh, why did God ever permit
True love like ours to part

No letter in the mail today
No answer from my love
Nobody knows what I've been through
No one but God above

This is what I wrote to her
I know that I'm to blame
I know that I have broken your heart
And then I signed my name

No letter in the mail today
No answer from my love
Nobody knows what I've been through
No one but God above

I'm traveling down this road today
Yes, traveling my last time
If there's no letter in the box
I'm leaving this world behind

No letter in the mail today
No answer from my love
Nobody knows what I've been through
No one but God above

Lord I ain't no stranger now
Lord I ain't no stranger now
I've been introduced to the Father and the Son
Lord I ain't no stranger now

Cryin' holy unto my Lord
Cryin holy unto my Lord
Lord if I could I surely would
Stand on that rock where Moses stood

Sinners run and hide your face
Sinners run and hide your face
Run to the rocks and hide your face
The rocks won't have no hiding place

I'm leavin' you to worry you off my mind
Lord, I'm leavin' you to worry you off my mind
'Cause you keep me worried troubled
Troubled all the time

Ah, six white houses going two by two
Ah, six white houses going two by two
That some other woman
Has took my love from you

Ah, the train I'm ridin' is sixteen coaches long
Ah, the train I'm ridin' is sixteen coaches long
That woman I'm lovin'
She's got another man and gone

If you don't believe I'm leavin' just count the days I'm gone
If you don't believe I'm leavin' just count the days I'm gone
Next time you see your daddy
It'll be on judgment morn'

Ah, tell me pretty woman which way the river runs
Ah, tell me pretty woman which way the river runs
Runs from by back door
To the set of the rising sun

I went downtown thought I had a dime
Got home this morning didn't have a dime
Lordy Lordy Lordy got the dog house blues
No use talkin' I got the dog house blues

Come home this morning about half past eight
She said honey you're out too late
Lordy Lordy Lordy got the dog house blues
No use talkin' I got the dog house blues

I went in the house to start the fire
She kicked me out in the middle of the night
Lordy Lordy Lordy got the dog house blues
No use talkin' I got the dog house blues

I fell in the yard mad as I can be
Said to my dog make room for me
Lordy Lordy Lordy got the dog house blues
No use talkin' I got the dog house blues

Eight weeks ago tonight we parted
It's hard to realize we're through
When we quit you said you'd always love me
Now I wonder if you feel the way I do

I'll never forget our days together
Even tho' I know they're very few
I loved you then and will forever
I wonder if you feel the way I do

It's the strangest and the sweetest love dear
That two people ever knew
You told me that I need not worry
That for ever you'd be true

It makes no difference where I wander
No matter what I say or do
I'll always think of you my darlin'
And wonder if you feel the way I do

As through this dreary world I wander
My thoughts will always be of you
It see me to me there's no use livin'
If you feel the way I do

If I had my way I'd leave here today
I'd leave in a hurry
I'd find me a place where I could stay
And not have to worry

A place I could use
A place I could lose the Tennessee Blues

I'd find me a spot on some mountain top
With no one around me
Valleys and streams, birds in the trees
And hills that surround me.

I'd try to forget all my regrets
I'd keep just the good times
I'd wake and I'd sleep, nothing but peace
Feel free all the time.

When you reach that golden city (golden city)
Friends and loved ones you shall see (you shall see)
When the saints come out to meet you (out to meet you)
Oh shake my mother's hand for me

Shake my mothers hand and tell her (and then tell her)
Happy may her spirits be (your spirits be)
When the saints come out to meet you (out to meet you)
Oh shake my mother's hand for me

There are times I often wonder
How can all these trials be
Time can't keep me here much longer
Oh shake my mother's hand for me

Over there you'll meet my Savior
Many loved ones you will see
When you've had a talk with Jesus
Oh shake my mother's hand for me

Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Oh

Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?

Were you there when they nailed Him to the Cross?
Were you there when they nailed Him to the Cross?
Oh

Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they nailed Him to the Cross?

Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
Oh

Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble.
Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?

Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Oh

Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?

Look a-yonder comin', comin' down that railroad track
Hey, look a-yonder comin', comin' down that railroad track
It's the Orange Blossom Special bringin' my baby back

Well, I'm going down to Florida and get some sand in my shoes
Or maybe Californy and get some sand in my shoes
I'll ride that Orange Blossom Special and lose these New York blues

"Say man, when you going back to Florida?"
"When am I goin' back to Florida? I don't know, don't reckon I ever will"
"Ain't you worried about getting your nourishment in New York?"
"Well, I don't care if I do-die do-die, do-die, do-die"

Hey talk about a-ramblin' she's the fastest train on the line
Talk about a-travellin' she's the fastest train on the line
It's that Orange Blossom Special rollin' down the seaboard line

The longest train I ever saw
Went down that Georgia line
The engine passed at six o'clock
And the cab passed by at nine

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
And we shiver when the cold wind blows
Who who hoo hoo hoo, who who hoo hoo hoo

I asked my captain for the time of day
He said he throwed his watch away
A long steel rail and a short cross tie
I'm on my way back home

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
And we shiver when the cold wind blows
Who who hoo hoo hoo, who who hoo hoo hoo

Little girl, little girl, what have I done
That makes you treat me so?
You caused me to weep, you caused me to mourn
You caused me to leave my home

In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun never shines
And we shiver when the cold wind blows
Who who hoo hoo hoo, who who hoo hoo hoo

Did you ever wonder about the riddle
What kind of spirit lives in a fiddle
Well, it's old Satan, right there a waiting
Or are you tuned with the angel band

Well, you back up and push
Back up and push
Back up and push
Back off of sin and let Glory in
You can't go wrong singing this song
Back up and push away

Now back up and push.



If you let the devil, play on your senses
Prepare to suffer the consequences
The foolish measure of the worldly pleasure
Can only drag you to the roaring fire

Well, you back up and push
Back up and push
Back up and push
Back off of sin and let Glory in
You can't go wrong singing this song
Back up and push away
