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 |

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? ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By FUQUA, HARVEY <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |

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 |
