There's a long black train comin' down the line,
Feeding off the souls that are lost and cryin'.
Rails of sin, only evil remains.
Watch out, brother, for that long black train.
Look to the heaven's, you can look to the sky.
You can find redemption staring back into your eyes.
There is protection and there's peace the same:
Burnin' your ticket for that long black train.
'Cause there's victory in the Lord, I say.
Victory in the Lord.
Cling to the Father and his Holy name,
And don't go ridin' on that long black train.
There's an engineer on that long black train,
Makin' you wonder if the ride is worth the pain.
He's just a-waitin' on your heart to say:
"Let me ride on that long black train."
But you know there's victory in the Lord, I say.
Victory in the Lord.
Cling to the Father and his Holy name,
And don't go ridin' on that long black train.
Well, I can hear the whistle from a mile away.
It sounds so good but I must stay away.
That train is a beauty makin' everybody stare,
But its only destination is the middle of nowhere.
But you know there's victory in the Lord, I say.
Victory in the Lord.
Cling to the Father and his Holy name,
And don't go ridin' on that long black train.
I said cling to the Father and his Holy name,
And don't go ridin' on that long black train.
Yeah, watch out brother for that long black train.

Some men dream of crossign oceans
Some men dream one day to fly
Spend their whole lifes out there floatin'
On the water and the sky
Some men dream of buildign fortunes
Some men dream of havin' fame
Nothin' else is more important
Than making money and a name
But in my dreams I see
A little sky blue house
Beside a small stream
A front porch, screen door
The sound of bare feet runnin' and cartoons
In my dreams, your dreams come true
I come find you in your garden
Pullin' weeds between the rows
Trade a kiss for a glass of water
Sit and watch what love can grow
In my dreams I see
A little sky blue house
Beside a small stream
A front porch, screen door
The sound of bare feet runnin' and cartoons
In my dreams, your dreams come true
In my dreams your dreams
Are the only things
That really matter to me
When you smile I smile
What makes you happy makes me happy too
In my dreams your dreams come true
. . .

I have been around
This old block before
I've walked into abruptly closign doors
Schooled in hard knocks, I've learned alot
'Bout how a heart can brake
I might not know what love is
But I know what it ain't
It aint layin' in the dark and wonderin' why she hasnt called
And now it's 2 am
It ain't driving by her house to find her wrapped up in the arms of you ex-best
friend
It ain't bold face lies or alibies that cannot be explained
I might not know what love is
But I know what it ain't
You say you could
Show me how to love
Baby there's one thing
You can be sure of
I wouldn't treat you wrong cause I've been on
The hurting side of pain
I might not know what love is but I know what it aint
It ain't showing up for dinner with a rose and chardonnay
Then drinkin by yourself
It ain't a postcard from Hawaii sayin' we can still be friends
But I met someone else
It ain't bold face lies or alibies that cannot be explained
I might not know what love is
But I know what it ain't
It ain't a mink coat, forty pairs of shoes, two 14 karet anklets on my
mastercard
It ain't walkin in a pawn shop, recognizing her engagement ring she swore she
lost
It ain't bold face lies or alibies that cannot be explained
I might not know what love is
But I know what it ain't
If you had all day I could tell you things
That would make a grown man faint
I might not know what love is
But I know what it ain't
. . .

I sure do like your Cadillac
Brings lots of memories back
I always felt like a star
Drivin' around in that car
'Cause I had one one time
Oh I had one one time
You probably think I'm lyin'
But I had one one time
Have you got a job that you love
Each day you can't wait to get up
You feel proud when you draw your pay
Would you be surprised if I say
I had one one time
Oh I had one one time
Now I hold a cardboard sign
But I had one one time
I bet you've got a good friend
You always hang out on weekends
Since high school you've been thick as thieves
Well I bet you'd never believe
I had one one time
Oh I had one one time
Somewhere along the line
But I had one one time
That beautiful girl beside you is probably your wife
Man, you've got it all, I'd say you live quite a life
I had one one time
Oh I had one one time
Maybe I've lost my mind
. . .

It wasn't even in my plan
A week in the sun and some fun in the sand
I was really only passing through
It all began on ocean drive
Standin' in line for a burger and fries
Coincidently so were you
We took a quiet corner booth
Didn't plan on hangin' out in Florida
Never was to good at standin still
Suddenly it's lookin' like I'm gonna
Kill a few more days in Jacksonville
I'm givin' up my walkin' shoes
While the wind and the waves wash away my blues
And you help me lose track of time
Rock and roll, your holdin' me
Rockin' in your arms by a rollin' sea
It was easy makin' up my mind
I can see forever in your eyes, your eyes
Didn't plan on hangin' out in Florida
Never was to good at standin still
Suddenly it's lookin' like I'm gonna
Kill a few more days in Jacksonville
Didn't plan on hangin' out in Florida
Never was to good at standin still
Suddenly it's lookin' like I'm gonna

Woke up at 5 am, put on my camouflage
Wiped off my .243 and fired up my dodge
Headed out to my old deerstand back in the pines
Gonna get me a ten point buck with 11 inch tines, yeah
Settled in, hiddin from the wind, waitin on the sun
You might end up being my supper if you get in the way of my gun
It's so still I can hear the train from ten miles away
If I'm here eight hours from now it'll be ok, yeah
Cause I'm a backwoods boy
Grew up on a dirt road
I'm a backwoods boy
With no better place to go
Waitin' on a deer, wishin' on a star
I'll always be true to my heart
Cause I'm a backwoods boy
I'm a backwoods boy
Sittin' on the back of Lynches
River with a little campfire
Sleepin' on the ground, diggin'
The sound of a backwoods choir
Talkin to the man in the moon
Way up in the sky
He told me to let my worries
Roll on by
Cause I'm a backwoods boy
Grew up on a dirt road
I'm a backwoods boy
With no better place to go
Waitin' on a deer, wishin' on a star
I'll always be true to my heart
Cause I'm a backwoods boy
. . .

I miss you so much
I don't know what to do
Can't bear the thought of
My life without you
Please baby, let's unburn all our bridges
Whatever it was
That tore us apart
Can surely be healed
With forgiving hearts
Please baby, lets unburn all our bridges
Tempers were lost
Emotions ran high
Feelings were wounded
On the night of goodbye
We said some things
We didn't mean
That wasn't you baby
That wasn't me
I still love you
I will till I die
And love is much stronger
Than anger or pride
Please baby, let's unburn all our bridges
Tempers were lost
Emotions ran high
Feelings were wounded
On the night of goodbye
We said some things
We didn't mean
That wasn't you baby
That wasn't me
I still love you
I will till I die
And love is much stronger
Than anger or pride
Please baby, let's unburn all our bridges
Please baby, let's unburn all our bridges
Unburn all our bridges

Uptowns got it hustlers
The bowery's got its bums
42nd street got big jim walker
He's a pool shootin' son of a gun
Yeah he's big and dumb as a man can come
But he's stronger than a country hoss
And when the bad folks all get together at night
You know they all call big jim boss
And they say
You don't tug on superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask of the ol' lone ranger
And you don't mess around with Jim
Well outta south alabama come a country boy
He said I'm looking for a man named jim
I am a pool shootin boy
My name is Willie McCoy
But down home they call me slim
Yeah I'm lookin for the king of forty second street
He drivin' a drop top cadillac
And last week he took all my money
And it may sound funny
But I come to get my money back
And everybody say
Jack, don't you know
You don't tug on superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask of the ol' lone ranger
And you don't mess around with Jim
Well a hush fell over the pool room
When Jimmy come boppin' in off the street
And when the cutting was done
The only thing that wasn't bloody
Was the souls of the big mans feet
Yeah he was cut in bout a hundred places
And he was shot in a couple more
And you better believe
They sung a diffrent kinda story
When big Jim hit the floor, uh huh
Now they say
You don't tug on superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask of the ol' lone ranger
And you don't mess around with Jim
Now they say
You don't tug on superman's cape
You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask of the ol' lone ranger
And you don't mess around with Slim
You don't pull the mask of the ol' lone ranger

If you've got a little girl, you better take the time
To go to her tea parties and give her a piggyback ride
Be a dragon or a dinosaur every chance you get
Cause one day you can bet
She'll go on you
Before you turn can around
And it's so lonely watchin' that
Fast train leavin' town
Better cherish her every second of your life
Cause this precious little thing that we call time
She'll go on you
If you got a special one
You better love her everyday
Leave her notes on the frigerator door
And send her sweet bouquets
Always be her confidant
A safe place for her to rest
Or that little thing you call you happiness
She'll go on you
Before you turn around
And it's so lonely watchin' that
Fast train leavin' town
Better cherish her every second of your life
Take her in your arms and do her right
She'll go on you
If you've got you momma there
You outta thank her everyday
For nursin' all your colds and
Sittin' up when you'd stay out late
Now all her hair is grey, and every year she's not as strong
One of these days before to long
She'll go on you
Before you turn around
And it's so lonely watchin' that
Fast train leavin' town
Better cherish her every second of your life
Cause before you get the chance to goodbye
She'll go on you
Yeah this precious little thing that we call life
. . .

She was out last night till way past ten
Same thing all over again but with my best friend
Why'd she wanna make me so mad
I treat that bad woman good
Lord I need a good woman bad
Now when I asked her to go to Sunday school
She went and called me a damned old fool
Now I don't understand
Why'd she wanna make me so sad
I treat that bad woman good
Lord I need a good woman bad
Here she comes
There she goes
Well I saved my money and I bought her a car
She got it stolen outside the bar
She looks good but she might not be
The kind of woman that I'm likely to need
Well I don't know why I let her walk on me
She's impolite as she can be
Now I'm startin to think
Hey maybe I've been had
I treat that bad woman good
Lord I need a good woman bad
I treat that bad woman good
Lord I need a good woman bad
I treat that bad woman good

You talk about your feeling
Sometimes I keep mine to myself
But that doesn't mean your foolish
And you know I don't want anybody else
And you can say I love you
Like hello and goodbye.
Well I don't say it very often
But you know I'll love you till the day I die
That's just the difference
Between a woman and a man
Thank god for that difference
When we both understand
A woman and a man
I turn on like a light bulb
You warm up like an iron
And you might take a little longer
But your into it just as strong as I am
That's just the difference
Between a woman and a man
Thank god for that difference
When we both understand
A woman and a man
A woman and a man
