ANN (Billy Ed Wheeler) ≪ ⓒ '68 Quartet Music ≫ I know I'll never meet another hunk of woman like my Ann Cause she makes me feel like a great big man I'm a gonna go tell her mama what I think about her say thank you ma'am For giving me your daughter Ann She sure is stacked from her toes to the pretty little nape Of her neck she's packed like a seed in a grape she's smooth as marble skin When I see her I believe I'm a real young guy And every time I go to work I think I might die if I can't hurry home again If the good Lord worked all night a makin' me a female plan I'd say no thanks Lord I'll just keep Ann [ strings ] How could I ever look at any other woman when I've got Ann Oh I feel so good when she takes my hand I'm a gonna go tell her daddy what I think about her say thank you man For giving me your daughter Ann When I come home and I feel like I've been run over By a ten-ton truck she can rub my shoulders and soothe my aches and pains If I lose my job and I'm down to a silver dollar And I feel like a dried up gourd in a holler she soothes my brow like summer rain If the good Lord worked all night a making me a female plan I'd say no thanks you Lord I'll just keep Ann Oh no thanks you Lord I'll just keep Ann |

She looks in the mirror and stares at the wrinkles that weren't there yesterday And thinks of the young man that she almost married What would he think if he saw her this way? She picks up her apron in little girl-fashion as something comes into her mind Slowly starts dancing rememb'ring her girlhood And all of the boys she had waiting in line Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife You see ev'rywhere any time of the day An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me The photograph album she takes from the closet and slowly turns the page And carefully picks up the crumbling flower The first one he gave her now withered today She closes her eyes and touches the house dress that suddenly disappears And just for the moment she's wearing the gown That broke all their minds back so many years Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife You see ev'rywhere any time of the day An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife You see ev'rywhere any time of the day An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife FADE You see ev'rywhere any time of the day An everyday housewife |

(Written by Glen Campbell)
(from the album 'Wichita Lineman') Chorus: Pity a man for he don't know The trouble he'll pass going down life's road When a man is one and twenty, he thinks he knows it all He can't see down the road of life where he'll ever fall But fall he will as he travels through life With all its pitfalls troubles and strife Now at fifty, he's going real strong He has him a family and a nice little home But old age is creeping up his spine And the day is coming when the sun won't shine Now at sixty, he won't have to guess He's already missed the boat that leads to success But he's done his best and he can't see why The fame of life just passed him by Now at seventy, he can see the light And he knows he's never been very bright But he's done his best as he's travelled by And now all he can do is just sit and sigh Repeat chorus... Now at eighty, he's ready for the wreath He's wore out his hair and two sets of teeth He has rheumatism in his hands and feet And nothing seems good to eat So you can pity him as he goes up the line As he wobbles on the spindle and he's almost blind And you can tell by the way that he travels alone That it won't be long before he's going home But if he's kept the commandments as he's travelled through life He'll have a home in heaven where there'll be no strife He's worked all his life to get things the way he wants them He comes here against his will and he goes away disappointed |

If you go away on this summer day then you might as well take the sun away
All the birds that flew in the summer sky When our love was new and our hearts were high When the day was young and the nights were long And the moon stood still for the night bird's song If you go away if you go away if you go away But if you'll stay I'll make you a day like no day has been or will be again We'll sail the sun we'll glide on the rain we'll talk to the trees and worship the wind Then if you go I'll understand leave me just enough love to fill up my hand If you go away if you go away if you go away If you go away as I know you will you must tell the world to stop turning Till you return again if you ever do for what good is love without loving you Can I tell you now as you turn to go I'll be dying slow to the next hello If you go away if you go away if you go away If you go away as I know you might there'll be nothing left in the world to trust Just an empty room full of empty space like the empty look I see on your face I have been the shadow of your shadow If I thought it might have kept me by your side If you go away if you go away if you go away But if you'll stay I'll make you a night like no night has been or will be again I'll sail on your smile I'll glide on your touch I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much But if you go I know I will cry and all the good is gone from the words goodbye If you go away if you go away if you go away please don't go away |

Maybe tomorrow I won't go home maybe she won't even care
At seven she'll throw a kiss towards the door and smile at my empty chair For there's nothing there for a man to cling to nothing to pull me back home Only a girl that's a stranger to me breathing on flames that are gone Home isn't where I hang up my hat every night And home isn't anything like cold arms holding me tight that's not right And home isn't some place to go just to feel all alone that's not home Maybe she might never see me again maybe that's the best way I'll join myself to some south blowing wind leave her to find her own way And maybe I'll find home someday |

Sometimes I imagine myself as a drifter,
Seeker of fortunes, connoisseur of great wines. Dashing through meadows of yellow and green, Trying to catch the impossible dream, Leavin' the straight life behind. Sometimes my thoughts may find me in Mexico, Drinkin' tequila goin' out of my mind. Havin' a ball on a couple 'a bob, Treatin' the ladies to corn on the cob, Leavin' the straight life behind. Suddenly all my silly thoughts disappear, She comes to me softly with crackers and beer, Winkin' and blinkin' and blowin' in my ear, Runnin' away with my mind. It's great to be in love, I'm not really thinkin' of Leavin' the straight life behind I'm just playin' a game in my mind. Once in a while in my mind I go bummin', Goin' to nowhere, with no worry of time Runnin' along chasin' after a train, Hummin' a song in the sun and the rain, Leavin' the straight life behind. I can just see me on a tropical island, Ridin' the surf and drinkin' coconut wine. Havin' me fun with the girls in the sand, Chasin' the sun through an innocent land, Leavin' the straight life behind. Suddenly all my silly thoughts disappear, She comes to me softly with crackers and beer, Winkin' and blinkin' and blowin' in my ear, Runnin' away with my mind. It's great to be in love, I'm not really thinkin' of Leavin' the straight life behind, I'm just playin' a game in my mind. |

Both Sides Now Lyrics
Bows and flows of angel hair, and ice cream castles in the air Feathered canyons everywhere, I've looked at clouds that way Now they only block the sun, they rain and snow on everyone So many things I could have done, but clouds got in my way I've looked at clouds from both sides now from up and down and still somehow It's cloud's illusion I recall, I really don't know clouds at all Moons and Junes and farris wheels. The dizzy dancing way you feel When every fairytale comes real. I've looked at love that way Now that's just another show you leave them laughing when you go If you care don't let them know don't give yourself away I've looked at love from both sides now from give and take and still somehow It's love's illusion I recall I really don't know love at all Tears and fears and feeling proud to say I love you right out loud Dreams and schemes and circus crowds I look at life that way Now old friends are acting strange. They shake their heads they say I've changed But something's lost and something's gained in living every day I've looked at life from both sides now from win and lose and still somehow It's life's illusion I recall. I really don't know life at all |

By the time I get to Phoenix She'll be rising She'll find the note I left hangin' On her door She'll laugh when she reads the part That says I'm leavin' 'Cause I've left that girl So many times before By the time I make Albuquerque She'll be working She'll prob'ly stop at lunch And give me a call But she'll just hear that phone Keep on ringin' Off the wall that's all By the time I make Oklahoma She'll be sleepin' She'll turn softly and call my name out loud And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her Tho' time and time I try to tell her so She just didn't know I would really go |

Living in the city
Ain't never been my idea Of getting it on But the job demands That you make new plans Before your big chance is gone You get a house in the hills You're paying everyones bills And they tell you that You're gonna go far But in the back of my mind I hear it time after time Is that who you really are Country boy You got your feet in L.A. But your mind's on Tennessee Looking back, I can Remember the time When I sang my songs for free Country boy You got your feet in L.A. Take a look at everything you own But now and then My heart keeps going home Talking on the telephone Setting up another day Of people to meet You've gotta do what's right You've gotta spend the night Staying in touch with the street When you're surrounded by friends They say the fun never ends But I guess I'll never figure it out Cause in the back of my mind I hear it time after time Is this what its all about Country boy You got your feet in L.A. But your mind's on Tennessee Looking back, I can Remember the time When I sang my songs for free Country boy You got your feet in L.A. Take a look at everything you own But now and then My heart keeps going home Country boy You got your feet in L.A. But your mind's on Tennessee Looking back, I can Remember the time When I sang my songs for free Country boy You got your feet in L.A. Take a look at everything you own But now and then My heart keeps going home |

Don't pull your love out on me baby
If you do, I think that maybe I'll just lay Me down and cry for a hundred years Don't pull your love out on me, honey Take my heart, my soul, my money But don't leave me here to drown in my own tears You say you're gonna leave Gonna take that big white bird Gonna fly right out of here without a single word But you know you'll break my heart When I watch you close that door 'Cause I know I won't see you any more (repeat chorus) Haven't I been good to you What about that brand new ring Doesn't that mean love to you Doesn't that mean anything If I throw away my pride and I got down on my knees Would you make me beg you pretty please (Repeat chorus) There's so much I want to do I've got love enough for two I'll never use it girl If I don't have you (repeat chorus) THEN YOU CAN TELL ME GOODBYE Kiss me each morning for a million years Hold me each evening by your side Tell me you love me for a million years Then if it don't work out Then if it don't work out Then you can tell me goodbye Sweeten my coffee with a morning kiss Soften my dreams with your sigh After you've loved me for a million years Then if it don't work out Then if it don't work out Then you can tell me goodbye If you must go I won't grieve If you just wait a life time before you leave If you must go, I won't say no Just so we can say that we tried Tell me you love me for a million years Then if it don't work out Then if it don't work out Then you can tell me goodbye |

I still hear your sea winds blowing I still see her dark eyes glowing She was 21 When I left Galveston Galveston, oh Galveston I still hear your sea waves crashing While I watch the cannons flashing I clean my gun And dream of Galveston I still see her standing by the water Standing there looking out to sea And is she waiting there for me? On the beach where we used to run Galveston, oh Galveston I am so afraid of dying Before I dry the tears she's crying Before I watch your sea birds flying in the sun At Galveston, at Galveston |

It's knowing that your door is always open
And your path is free to walk That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag Rolled up and stashed behind your couch And it's knowing I'm not shackled By forgotten words and bonds And the ink stains that are dried upon some line That keeps you in the backroads By the rivers of my memory That keeps you ever gentle on my mind It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy Planted on their columns now that bind me Or something that somebody said Because they thought we fit together walking It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find That you're moving on the backroads By the rivers of my memory And for hours you're just gentle on my mind Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines And the junkyards and the highways come between us And some other woman's cryin' to her mother 'Cause she turned and I was gone I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face And the summer sun might burn me 'til I'm blind But not to where I cannot see you walkin' on the backroads By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin' Cracklin' caldron in some train yard My beard a rustling, cold towel, and A dirty hat pulled low across my face Through cupped hands 'round the tin can I pretend to hold you to my breast and find That you're waiting from the backroads By the rivers of my memories Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind |

If you see your brother standing by the road
With a heavy load from the seeds he sowed And if you see your sister falling by the way Just stop and say you're goin' the wrong way You've got to try a little kindness yes show a little kindness Yes shine your light for everyone to see And if you'll try a little kindness and you'll overlook the blindness Of the narrow minded people on the narrow minded streets Don't walk around the down and out lend a helping hand instead of doubt And the kindness that you show every day will help someone along their way You've got to try a little kindness... You've got to try a little kindness... |

Written by Jimmy Webb - 1969
The end has come and found us here With our toys scattered all around us here The puzzle that we never found an answer for Still asks us, darlin', just what all the games were for And here we stand in a box of sand Where's the playground Susie? You're the one who's supposed to know her way around Where's the playground Susie If I don't stay around? If I don't stay around? The carousel has stopped us here It twirled a time or two and then it dropped us here And still you're not content with something about me But what merry-go-round can you ride without me To take your hand ? How would you stand? Where's the playground Susie If I decide to let you go and play around? Where's the playground Susie If I don't stay around? If I don't stay around? Where's the playground Susie? You're the one who's supposed to know her way around Where's the playground Susie If I decide to let you go and play around? |

I am a lineman for the county
And I drive the main roads Searching in the sun for another overload I hear you singing in the wires I can hear you through the whine And the Wichita lineman Is still on the line I know I need a small vacation But it don't look like rain And if it snows that stretch down south won't ever stand the strain And I need you more than want you And I want you for all time And the Wichita lineman Is still on the line And I need you more than want you And I want you for all time And the Wichita lineman Is still on the line |

Here's to the people who gave me life
And then showed me how to live it And taught me that you measure love By how freely you can give it And the gift I give to you Is the lesson that I learned That when a love is true It has nothing in return Unconditional love, that they gave to me It wasn't mine to keep and I knew someday I'd hand it down to you and hope that I can be The one who makes you see The importance of unconditional love And there were times I know I let them down But never once was I rejected And when I stood alone to face this world Somehow I still felt protected That's the common bond we share And it will last through the years And you can trust that I'll be there Through the good times and the tears Unconditional love, like they gave to me It's not yours to keep and I know someday Someone will look to you and you will have to be The one who makes him see The importance of unconditional love |

By the time I get to Phoenix She'll be rising She'll find the note I left hangin' On her door She'll laugh when she reads the part That says I'm leavin' 'Cause I've left that girl So many times before By the time I make Albuquerque She'll be working She'll prob'ly stop at lunch And give me a call But she'll just hear that phone Keep on ringin' Off the wall that's all By the time I make Oklahoma She'll be sleepin' She'll turn softly and call my name out loud And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her Tho' time and time I try to tell her so She just didn't know I would really go |

About five o'clock in the late afternoon sun's gettin' drowsy above me
Tonight I walk neath the sparkling moon with the girl who is happy to love me She's my sweet country girl and she's all that I need The whole world wears the smile when she's talking Sweet country girl it's not hard to believe Pretty flowers bloom wherever she's been walking uh-huh Shadows erase in the last light of day night time is startin' to settle Red colored stone Lord is leading my way to her cottage way down in the meadow She's my sweet country girl... Green trees and golden hay and sunshine here every day Big cities far behind me well it's love with her to think I'm a gonna stay About five o'clock in the late afternoon... She's my sweet country girl yes she is She's my sweet country girl and I love her she's my sweet country girl |

Looking back on the days
When I was scuffling for a buck Not overly concerned with life and love I was always feeling sorry For myself and my bad luck I never stopped to think what life's made of With my nose to the grindstone And my collar to the wheel I fought for my daily dollar like a man Then you came into my life And nothing else seemed real I found the answer right here in my hands Now I've got everything a man could ever need I've got dreams to dream and songs to sing In the morning I've got hands to hold my baby-child And eyes to watch my woman smile I've got everything a man could ever need Now my working days seem shorter Than they ever did before And the evening breeze gets cooler day by day And the morning sun is always shining Down on my backdoor And your laughter washes all my tears away And there's not a day goes by When I don't look up to the sky And humbly thank the good Lord up above For bringing you to me in time To make me realize That all a poor man really needs is love Now I've got everything a man could ever need I've got dreams to dream and songs to sing In the morning I've got hands to hold my baby-child And eyes to watch my woman smile I've got everything a man could ever need I've got everything a man could ever need |

Love is like a warm and tender rain
Splashin' on the roof Beatin' on the window pain She was like a soft and gentle breeze Seemin' so sincere Pretty as you please Though the time we spent together was so small I keep wondering if I'll pull through it all But the way you held me close and call my name The pain I'm feelin' now Tells me love is not a game Every time I looked into her eyes I couldn't really see What was on her mind 'Cause she'd been through this many times before I never realised I must have been a bore Now I believe in love to be Just simple truth and harmony Happiness both day and night No one wrong or right But the way you held me close and call my name And the pain I'm feelin' now Tells me love is not a game |

It's knowing that your door is always open
And your path is free to walk That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag Rolled up and stashed behind your couch And it's knowing I'm not shackled By forgotten words and bonds And the ink stains that are dried upon some line That keeps you in the backroads By the rivers of my memory That keeps you ever gentle on my mind It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy Planted on their columns now that bind me Or something that somebody said Because they thought we fit together walking It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find That you're moving on the backroads By the rivers of my memory And for hours you're just gentle on my mind Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines And the junkyards and the highways come between us And some other woman's cryin' to her mother 'Cause she turned and I was gone I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face And the summer sun might burn me 'til I'm blind But not to where I cannot see you walkin' on the backroads By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin' Cracklin' caldron in some train yard My beard a rustling, cold towel, and A dirty hat pulled low across my face Through cupped hands 'round the tin can I pretend to hold you to my breast and find That you're waiting from the backroads By the rivers of my memories Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind |

Well honey I know I've said it many times before I said I'd never say it again
I guess I shouldn't say anything at all since you're supposed to belong to him But I just can't let you go but I'm tellin' you just how much I love you So that is why I'm gonna say it one more time Honey come back I just can't stand each lonely day's a little bit longer And the last time I held you seems like a hundred years ago Back to his arms and never know the joy of love that used to taste like Honey come back where you belong to only me Well I guess that's about all I gotta say So I'm just gonna pack my bags and I'm gonna walk I know those bright lights're callin' you honey big fine cars and fancy clothes But if you ever want someone to just love you and some day you just may Just give me a call you know where I am and here's what I'll say Honey come back...

I have to admit
That no-one could love me like you did And there were more laughs Than tears any day Like children at play But somewhere and somehow We lost each other How high did we go When we loved each other How high did we go When we said we care-hare-are-hared For the first time I'm scared I have no regrets Lookin' back I hold nothing against you 'Cause I learned to love And that's more than most ever know And I just can't believe That we've lost each other How high did we go When we loved each other How high did we go When we said we care-hare-are-hare-ared For the first time I'm scare-ared How high did we go ho ho When we loved each other How high did we go When we said we care-hare-are-hared |

The palpitating beast that beats within my battered breast
Burning and bedevilling, not allowing any rest The thunder in my mind reflects the storm within my heart A blasting, blaring sound that tears my soul apart If this is love ... who needs it? There's a tender, tempting feeling that is growing in my mind Soothing and caressing a part of me that's blind A warming worm that's mellowing and eating my resolve Changing and challenging my cold heart to dissolve If this is love ... I want it! Now a flaming, flaring fire I feel has trapped me in it's trance Flashing and flickering and forcing me to dance I'm raised by its pure energy, aborning me anew Blinding but enlightening, I know the fire is you If this is love ... I need it If this is love ... I want it If this is what love is like ... oh yes, I need it Oh if this is what love is like, I wanna have a taste of it |

Moonlight and roses are the goin' thing

Love is like a warm and tender rain Splashing on the roof beatin' on the window pane She was like a soft and gentle breeze Seemin' so sincere pretty as you please. Though the time we spent together was so small I keep wondering if I walked through it all But the way you held me close and called my name And the pain I'm feeling now tells me love is not a game. Every time I looked into her eyes I couldn't really see what was on her mind 'Cause she's been through this many times before Never realized I must have been a poor. Now I believe that love could be just simple true and harmony Happiness for day and night no one wrong or right But the way you held me close and called my name And the pain I'm feeling now tells me love is not a game... |

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 잠깐 동안은 잘 지냈어요 잠깐 동안은 웃을 수도 있었지요 하지만 어젯밤 그대를 만났을 때 그대는 내 손을 꼭 잡아 주었죠 그대는 안부 인사를 하러 들러서 나에게 잘 지내라고 했지만 내가 당신 때문에 울며 지낸다는 건 알아채지 못했지요 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 그대는 ""안녕!""이라 말하고는 홀로 서 있는 나를 두고 떠나 버렸죠 나는 홀로 남아 하염없이 눈물지어요 그대의 손길이 참았던 내 울음을 터지게 할 수도 있음을 잘 모르겠어요 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? For 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 Yeah, crying, crying over you 나는 그대를 잊었다고 생각했어요 하지만 사실은 예전보다도 훨씬 더 그대를 사랑합니다 하지만 그대여, 나는 어떡하면 좋죠? 그대는 나를 사랑하지 않으니 나는 그대를 생각하며 계속 울고만 있을 겁니다 그래요, 이젠 그대는 가고 없지요 지금 이 순간부터는 계속 나는 하염없이 울고만 있을 겁니다 아, 그대를 생각하며 계속 울고만 있을 거예요 |

She looks in the mirror and stares at the wrinkles that weren't there yesterday
And thinks of the young man that she almost married What would he think if he saw her this way She picks up her apron in little girl fashion as something comes into her mind Then slowly starts dancing remembering her girlhood And all of the boys she had waiting in line Ah such are the dreams of the everyday housewife You see everywhere anytime of the day And everyday housewife who gave up the good time for me The photograph album she takes from the closet and slowly turns the page And carefully picks up the crumbling flower The first one he gave her now withered with age She closes her eyes and touches the housedress that suddenly disappears And just for a moment she's wearing the gown That broke all their minds back so many years Ah such are the dreams... Ah such are the dreams... Ah such are the dreams... |

This is one of my favourite Hank Williams songs
We could be here all evening if I did all my favourite Hank William songs He was an incredible folk country writer This one is called I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry Ready? Make 'em cry SteveWell hear that lonesome Wipperwill He sounds to blue to fly That midnight train Lord, it's whining low And why'm so lonesome I cou-ould cry Did you ever see a robin weep When he's began to die It means he's lost Lord, the will to live And I'm so lonesome I cou-ould cry Play it Steve Yeah, yeah I thought it was wonderful And the silence of a fallen stars It lights up a purple-le sky And as I wonder Sweet darlin', where you are I'm so lonesome I cou-ould cry And I'm so loneso-ome That I could cry-hy |

I've been walkin' these streets so long
Singin' the same old song I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway Where hustle's the name of the game And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain There's been a load of compromisin' On the road to my horizon But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me Like a rhinestone cowboy Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo Like a rhinestone cowboy Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know And offers comin' over the phone Well, I really don't mind the rain And a smile can hide all the pain But you're down when you're ridin' the train that's takin' the long way And I dream of the things I'll do With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe There'll be a load of compromisin' On the road to my horizon But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me Like a rhinestone cowboy Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo Rhinestone cowboy Gettin' cards and letters from people I don't even know And offers comin' over the phone Like a rhinestone cowboy Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo FADE Like a rhinestone cowboy Gettin' card and letters from people I don't even know |

Southern nights
Have you ever felt a Southern night Free as a breeze, not to mention the trees Whistling tunes that you know and love so Southern nights Just as good even when you close your eyes I apologize to anyone who can truly say That he has found a better way Southern skies Have you ever noticed Southern skies It's precious beauty lies just beyond the eye It goes running through your soul Like the stories of old Old man, he and his dog They walk the old land Every flower touched his cold hand As he slowly walked by Weeping willows would cry for joy, joy Feel so good, feel so good, it's frightening Wish I could stop this world from fighting La da da da da........ Mysteries like this and Many others in the trees Blow in the night in the Southern skies Southern nights They feel so good, it's frightening Wish I could stop this world from fighting La da da da da........ |

If you see your brother standing by the road
With a heavy load from the seeds he sowed And if you see your sister falling by the way Just stop and say you're goin' the wrong way You've got to try a little kindness yes show a little kindness Yes shine your light for everyone to see And if you'll try a little kindness and you'll overlook the blindness Of the narrow minded people on the narrow minded streets Don't walk around the down and out lend a helping hand instead of doubt And the kindness that you show every day will help someone along their way You've got to try a little kindness... You've got to try a little kindness... |

You know, my love, my only wish is happiness for you
So I work real hard to strike it rich but everytime I do I blow it all on some old witch I hardly ever knew How come everytime I itch I wind up scratchin' you When everything's ain't going right, I hurry home to you You kiss my lips and you comfort me as only you can do But the eagle flies on Friday night and my senses fly off too How come everytime I itch I wind up scratchin' you I dream of coming home to you; a knight in shining armour 'Cause it seems to me that you rate much more Than a broken down, busted farmer Everytime I get ahead, I act like someone new I waste the whole night talking big and spending money too Then I sneak in bed beside you; broke and blue How come everytime I itch I wind up scratchin' you, ahhh How come everytime I itch I wind up scratchin' you |

Friends are never earned they're a gift from the loving God
And they're precious beyond human evaluation But you dare not take them for granted or they'll lift away like a smoke And the warmth of their caring will vanish into the chill of the endless nights Most of my friends are unknowns they probably won't even rate an obituary Unless they live and die in a small town Somewhere where nothing much ever happens But a few of my friends are big people They'd made the word ring with laughter down to this string of court They're famous sensitive talented and their names are household words And yet they're no more precious in God's eyes or in mine Than those wonderful nobodys who live and die in small towns Who is your friend he's someone who warms you with a nod Or with an unspoken word in hard times when you're hurting beyond words Who is your friend he's someone who holds you to her breast And sighs softly into your hair when no other medicine could possibly stop the pain A friend is someone who clings his glass against yours Or answers the phone at three in the morning when you're lost And with a few words of encouragement and concern Makes you realize that you're not really lost at all Friends come in both sexes in all shapes and sizes The most imprtant thing they have in common is their ability To share with you your most sky splitting joys Or your deepest most spelling ol' some sorrows for they're all your friends |

Galveston, oh Galveston
I still hear your sea winds blowing I still see her dark eyes glowing She was 21 When I left Galveston Galveston, oh Galveston I still hear your sea waves crashing While I watch the cannons flashing I clean my gun And dream of Galveston I still see her standing by the water Standing there looking out to sea And is she waiting there for me? On the beach where we used to run Galveston, oh Galveston I am so afraid of dying Before I dry the tears she's crying Before I watch your sea birds flying in the sun At Galveston, at Galveston |

The palpitating beast that beats within my battered breast
Burning and bedevilling, not allowing any rest The thunder in my mind reflects the storm within my heart A blasting, blaring sound that tears my soul apart If this is love ... who needs it? There's a tender, tempting feeling that is growing in my mind Soothing and caressing a part of me that's blind A warming worm that's mellowing and eating my resolve Changing and challenging my cold heart to dissolve If this is love ... I want it! Now a flaming, flaring fire I feel has trapped me in it's trance Flashing and flickering and forcing me to dance I'm raised by its pure energy, aborning me anew Blinding but enlightening, I know the fire is you If this is love ... I need it If this is love ... I want it If this is what love is like ... oh yes, I need it Oh if this is what love is like, I wanna have a taste of it |

Take my hand for a while
Explain it to me once again Just for the sake Of my-why broken heart Look into my eyes And maybe I will understand How love I counted on Was never there You see, I-I thought That you might love me So you caught me, it seems Off balance with a heart so full Of love and pretty dreams That two should share And so, I-I know But please before you go Take my hand for a while Explain it to me once again Just for the sake Of my-why broken heart |

I'll ease at your table and I'll sleep in your clover Who cares what tomorrow shall bring Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine I'll taste your strawberrys and I'll drink your sweet wine And a million tomorrows shall all pass away here I forget all the joy that is mine today I can't be contented withg yeasterday's glory I can't live on promissess winter just brings Today is my moment and right now is my story while I laught and I cry and I sing Today while the blossoms... |

Written by Jimmy Webb - 1969
The end has come and found us here With our toys scattered all around us here The puzzle that we never found an answer for Still asks us, darlin', just what all the games were for And here we stand in a box of sand Where's the playground Susie? You're the one who's supposed to know her way around Where's the playground Susie If I don't stay around? If I don't stay around? The carousel has stopped us here It twirled a time or two and then it dropped us here And still you're not content with something about me But what merry-go-round can you ride without me To take your hand ? How would you stand? Where's the playground Susie If I decide to let you go and play around? Where's the playground Susie If I don't stay around? If I don't stay around? Where's the playground Susie? You're the one who's supposed to know her way around Where's the playground Susie If I decide to let you go and play around? |

In the chilly hours and minutes of uncertainity I want to be
In the warm hold of your loving mind To feel you all around me and to take your hand along the sand Ah but I may as well try and catch the wind When sundown pales the sky I want to hide a while behind your smile And everywhere I'd look your eyes I'd find For me to love you now t'would be the sweetest thing t'would make me sing Ah but I may as well try and catch the wind [ ac.guitar ] When rain has hung the leaves with tears I want you near to kill my fears To help me leave all my blues behind Standing in your heart is where I want to be and long to be Ah but I may as well try and catch the wind [ strings ] Ah but I may as well try and catch the wind |

It's knowing that your door is always open
And your path is free to walk That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag Rolled up and stashed behind your couch And it's knowing I'm not shackled By forgotten words and bonds And the ink stains that are dried upon some line That keeps you in the backroads By the rivers of my memory That keeps you ever gentle on my mind It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy Planted on their columns now that bind me Or something that somebody said Because they thought we fit together walking It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find That you're moving on the backroads By the rivers of my memory And for hours you're just gentle on my mind Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines And the junkyards and the highways come between us And some other woman's cryin' to her mother 'Cause she turned and I was gone I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face And the summer sun might burn me 'til I'm blind But not to where I cannot see you walkin' on the backroads By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin' Cracklin' caldron in some train yard My beard a rustling, cold towel, and A dirty hat pulled low across my face Through cupped hands 'round the tin can I pretend to hold you to my breast and find That you're waiting from the backroads By the rivers of my memories Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind |

IT'S OVER
If time were not a moving thing And I could make it stay This hour of love we share would always be There'd be no coming day To shine a morning light Make us realize our night Is over When you walk away from me there Is no place to put my hand Except to shade my eyes against the sun That rises o'er the land I watch you walk away somehow I have to let you go now It's over If you knew just how I really Feel you might return and yet There are so many times that people Have to love and then forget Though there might have been a way I have to force myself to say It's over [ strings ] So I turn my back and Turn my collar to the wind Move along in silence Tryin' not to think at all, Send my tired feet before me Walk the silent street before me It's over It's over |

I'd like to stay with you for a while but I have promisses to keep
I could be happy here with you but I'm a so wild oat to reap My strenght tells me my weakness shows you make me think of coats and ties Of babies home security and jobs that last from nine to five I could conjure up the constant state of happiness But I know that I am just another man And in knowing that I know that I'll get more or less what I can get So I'll do what I can I have many steps to take reckless steps I cannot share A mountain waits for me to climb and I must climb because it's there I could conjure up... But if you should not let me go and if you want me as I am And for a while I'll be a God instead of just another man mhm |

Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning When through a sleepy haze I see her lyin' there Soft as the rain that falls on summer flowers Warm as the sunlight shinin' on her golden hair, mhm. When I wake and see her there so close beside me I want to take her in my arms The ache is there so deep inside me And nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning. Chasin' a rainbow in the dream so far away And when she turns to touch it I kiss her face so softly My Mary wakes to love another day, mhm. My Mary's there in sunny days or stormy weather She doesn't care 'cause right or wrong The love we share we share together And nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the evening. Kissed by the shades of night and starlight on her hair And as we walk I hold her close beside me Oh, how tomorrows for lifetime we'll share, mhm. Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the morning Nothing's quite as pretty as Mary in the evening... |

I spend the night in a chair thinkin' she'll be there but she never comes
And then I wake up and wiped the sleep from my eyes And I rise to face another day without her It's just no good anymore when you walk through the door of an empty room And then you go inside and sat at the table for one It's no fun when you spend the day without her We burst the pretty baloon it took us to the Moon Such a beautiful thing bit it's ended now But it sounds like a lie if I say I'd rather die than live without her [ ac.guitar - strings ] I spend the night in a chair... |

Other eyes see star up in the skies but for me they shine within your eyes As the trees reach for the sun above so my arms reach out to you for love With your hand resting in mine I feel a power so divine You're my world you are my night and day You're my world you're every breath I breathe If our love ceased to be then it's the end of my world for me [ strings ] With your hand resting in mine... |
