How many girls choose cotton dress worlds
When they could have satins and lace And stand by her man, never once letting shade touch her face How many hearts could live through all the winters We've known and still not be cold True love travels on a gravel road. Love is a stranger and hearts are in danger All through streets paved with gold For true love travels on a gravel road. Down through the years we've had hard times and tears But they only helped our love grow And we'll stay together no matter how strong the wind blows Not once have I seen your blue eyes filled with envy Or stray from the one that you hold Oh true love travels on a gravel road. Love is a stranger and hearts are in danger All through streets paved with gold For true love travels on a gravel road. Yeah, true love travels on a gravel road. Mmmm True love travels on a gravel road. True love travels on a gravel road. |

As the snow flies
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin' A poor little baby child is born In the ghetto And his mama cries 'cause if there's one thing that she don't need it's another hungry mouth to feed In the ghetto People, don't you understand the child needs a helping hand or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day Take a look at you and me, are we too blind to see, do we simply turn our heads and look the other way Well the world turns and a hungry little boy with a runny nose plays in the street as the cold wind blows In the ghetto And his hunger burns so he starts to roam the streets at night and he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight In the ghetto Then one night in desperation the young man breaks the rules He buys a gun, steals a car, tries to run, but he don't get far And his mama cries As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man face down on the street with a gun in his hand In the ghetto As her young man dies, on a cold and gray Chicago mornin', another little baby child is born In the ghetto And his mama cries |

<< Mama Liked The Roses >>
--- Elvis Presley (Words & music by J. Christopher) Oh, mama liked the roses she grew them in the yard But Winter always came around and made the growing way too hard Oh, mama liked the roses and when she had the time She'd decorate the living room, for all us kids to see When I hear the Sunday bells ringing in the morning I remember crying when she used to sing Oh, mama liked the roses but most of all she cared About the way we learned to live And if we said our prayers You know I kept the family bible With a rose that she saved inside It was pressed between the pages Like it had found a place to hide Oh, mama liked the roses in such a special way We bring them every Mother's Day And put them on her grave Oh, mama liked the roses Mmmm Mama liked the roses |

Listen easy, you can hear God calling
Walking barefoot by the stream Come on to me, Your hair's softly falling On my face as in a dream And the time will be our time And the grass won't pay no mind Saying nothing, lying where the sun is Baking down upon our sides My lips touch you, with their soft wet kisses Your hands gentle in reply And the time will be our time And the grass won't pay no mind Child, touch my soul with your cries And the music will know what we've found I, hear a hundred good-byes But today I hear only one sound The moment we're living is now Now now now now now now now Young bird flying, and a soft wind blowing Cools the sweat inside my palms Close my eyes, hear the flowers growing As you lay sleeping in my arms And the time will be our time And the grass won't pay no mind No the grass won't pay no mind |

We can't go on together With suspicious minds And we can't build our dreams On suspicious minds So, if an old friend I know Drops by to say hello Would I still see suspicion in your eyes? Here we go again Asking where I've been You can't see these tears are real I'm crying We can't go on together With suspicious minds And we can't build our dreams On suspicious minds Oh let our love survive Or dry the tears from your eyes Let's don't let a good thing die When honey, you know I've never lied to you Mmm yeah, yeah |

Hey Jude, don`t make it bad.
Take a sad song and make it better. Remember to let her into your heart, Then you can start to make it better. Hey Jude, don`t be afraid. You were made to go out and get her. The minute you let her under your skin, Then you begin to make it better. And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain, Don`t carry the world upon your shoulders. For well you know that it`s a fool who plays it cool By making his world a little colder. Hey Jude, don`t let me down. You have found her, now go and get her. Remember to let her into your heart, Then you can start to make it better. So let it out and let it in, hey Jude, begin, You`re waiting for someone to perform with. And don`t you know that it`s just you, hey Jude, you`ll do, The movement you need is on your shoulder. Hey Jude, don`t make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better. Remember to let her under your skin, Then you`ll begin to make it Better better better better better better, oh. Na na na, na na na na, na na na, hey Jude... |

Seven lonely days and a dozen towns ago
I reached out one night and you were gone Don't know why you'd run, what you're running to or from All I know is I want to bring you home So I'm walking in the rain, thumbin' for a ride On this lonely Kentucky backroad I've loved you much too long; my love's too strong To let you go, never knowing what went wrong. Kentucky rain keeps pouring down, And up ahead's another town that I'll go walking through With the rain in my shoes, searchin for you In the cold Kentucky rain, in the cold Kentucky rain. Showed your photograph to some old gray bearded men Sitting on a bench outside a general store They said "Yes, she's been here" But their memory wasn't clear. Was it yesterday? No, wait the day before. Finally got a ride, with a preacher man who asked, "Where you bound on such a cold, dark afternoon?" As we drove on through the rain, as he listened I explained And he left me with a prayer that I'd find you. |

Baby don't fall in love with me
I'll only bring you grief Baby, don't set your heart on me I'll only have to leave 'Cause the north wind flows through my veins Like my dad there's a dream in my brain In the morning I'll have to leave again That's how it is when you inherit the wind Inherit the wind Daddy, he was a traveling man I hardly knew his face Momma, she cried for him at night He never stayed in one place 'Cause the north wind flows through my veins Like my dad there's a dream in my brain In the morning I'll have to leave again That's how it is when you inherit the wind Inherit the wind Oh I can't give you the love you need I just won't be here that long But if you still want me here tonight I'll love you till the break of dawn 'Cause the north wind flows through my veins Like my dad there's a dream in my brain In the morning I'll have to leave again That's how it is when you inherit the wind Inherit the wind Inherit the wind, inherit the wind |

I awakened this morning, I was filled with despair
All my dreams turned to ashes and gone, oh yeah As I looked at my life it was barren and bare Without love I've had nothing at all Without love I've had nothing Without love I've had nothing at all I have conquered the world All but one thing did I have Without love I've had nothing at all Once I had a sweetheart who loved only me There was nothing, oh that she would not give, oh no But I was blind to her goodness and I could not see That a heart without love cannot live Without love I've had nothing Without love I've had nothing at all I have conquered the world All but one thing did I have Without love I've had nothing at all |

My warped and worried mind resortd
To wandering off to ponder things I never talk about A pretty girl I used to know but wouldn't know if we met face to face And defying every logic known I wish all the time machine could take me back again To the wonder of my first love, the old folks tease me 'bout Referring to her only as my little friend Somewhere far away and maybe not so far away The child has grown into a woman of the world I assume just knowing that she knew so much of life at such a tender age I learned from her the whispered things the big boys at the pool hall talk about The thrill and disappointment, fear and shame that first love brings But oh, how I thought I loved my little friend The fragrance of the green grass mingled with the scent of love and warming earth The moonlight night I kissed and cried and swore I'd never touch another girl But time moved fast and I moved on and I loved others time and time again But with each time I thought of her and always gave a little more Assembled love and rememberance for my little friend Oh-oh-oh assembled love and rememberance for my little friend Oh-oh-oh assembled love and rememberance for my little friend Oh-oh-oh assembled love and rememberance for my little friend |

When I think of how He came so far from glory Came to dwell among the lowly such as I To suffer shame and such disgrace On Mount Calvary take my place Then I ask myself this question Who am I? Who am I that The King would bleed and die for Who am I that He would pray not my will, Thy Lord The answer I may never know Why He ever loved me so But to that old rugged cross He'd go For who am I? When I'm reminded of His words I'll leave Him never If you'll be true I'll give to you life forever Oh I wonder what I could have done To deserve God's only Son To fight my battles until they're won For who am I? Who am I that The King would bleed and die for Who am I that He would pray not my will, Thy Lord The answer I may never know Why He ever loved me so But to that old rugged cross He'd go For who am I? But to an old rugged cross He'd go for, who am I? |

We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out Because I love you too much baby Why can't you see What you're doing to me When you don't believe a word I say? We can't go on together With suspicious minds And we can't build our dreams On suspicious minds So, if an old friend I know Drops by to say hello Would I still see suspicion in your eyes? Here we go again Asking where I've been You can't see these tears are real I'm crying We can't go on together With suspicious minds And we can't build our dreams On suspicious minds Oh let our love survive Or dry the tears from your eyes Let's don't let a good thing die When honey, you know I've never lied to you Mmm yeah, yeah |

As the snow flies
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin' A poor little baby child is born In the ghetto And his mama cries 'cause if there's one thing that she don't need it's another hungry mouth to feed In the ghetto People, don't you understand the child needs a helping hand or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day Take a look at you and me, are we too blind to see, do we simply turn our heads and look the other way Well the world turns and a hungry little boy with a runny nose plays in the street as the cold wind blows In the ghetto And his hunger burns so he starts to roam the streets at night and he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight In the ghetto Then one night in desperation the young man breaks the rules He buys a gun, steals a car, tries to run, but he don't get far And his mama cries As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young man face down on the street with a gun in his hand In the ghetto As her young man dies, on a cold and gray Chicago mornin', another little baby child is born In the ghetto And his mama cries |
