Standin' there by the window
Starin' out at the night
You've got so many troubles
On your nervous mind
But don't worry baby
It's gonna work out fine
You hear the sound of footsteps
Stealing 'cross the floor
You picked up the receiver
You didn't know what for
Then you saw the shadow
Steppin' through the door
Well don't worry baby
What the world may bring
Well don't worry baby
It won't change a thing
Life is a fly
And then you die
Standin' there by the window
Starin' out at the night
You see your lover leanin'
Against the old street light
But don't worry baby
It's gonna be alright
He was tossin' and turnin'
And he couldn't sleep
He said you shouldn't bother
It was just a dream
So where was he goin'
Headin' down the street
Well don't worry baby
What the world may bring
Well don't worry baby
It won't change a thing
Life is a fly
And then you die
. . .

Speak softly, don't wake the baby
Come and hold me once more
Before I have to leave
Because there's a lot of work out there
Everything will be fine
And I'll send for you baby
Just a matter of time
Our life, the only thing we know
Come and tell me once more
Before you have to go
That's there's a better world out there
Though it don't feel right
Will it be like I hope
Just a matter of time
And I hope it's all it seems
Not another empty dream
There's a time for you and me
In a place living happily
And I hope it's all it seems
Not another empty dream
There's a time for you and me
In a place living happily
Walk quietly, don't make a sound
Believe in what you're doing
I know we can't be wrong
Don't worry about us here
It will be alright
And we'll be there with you
Just a matter of time
And we'll all be together
Just a matter of time
A matter of time
We'll be together
In a matter of time
You and me, a matter of time
It will be like I hoped
A matter of time
. . .

It's been a long and loney lonely year
Since the last time I saw you my dear
Don't you remember when I was in my surrender
I said I'd always love you endlessly
Hey little sweetheart, so how you doing now?
I thought without me you probably would drown
I guess I was wrong and for that it is so long
Take care my darling, I hope to see you around
Parting with you I'll never ever get
Our love can be here and instantly regret
You showed me love and gave me understanding
Baby with out you it's going to leave me shredded
It's been a long and loney lonely year
Since the last time I saw you my dear
Don't you remember when I was in my surrender
I said I'd always love you endlessly
I said I'd always love you endlessly
I said I'd always love you endlessly

Now at last the night has fallen
We're all alone
The sky is dark, the stars are bright
And we're so far from home
You and I have been together
For so many years
If love is right, why do you fight
To hold back needless tears
Tell me that it'll be alright
But when I'm deep inside I realize
That this our last night
Bring your pretty head closer
Get it close to mine
Your eyes are saying something
But the words are hard to find
Love don't know it lasts forever
Ours is here to stay
After all the love we've given
Please don't look at me that way
Tell me that it'll be alright
But when I'm deep inside I realize
That this our last night
Feelings come and hearts fall broken
Slipping through our hands
The ways of life and love
I'll never never understand
If it's true what you've been saying
If there's still a chance
Why is it that the two of us
Can't rescue this romance
Faded love don't ever come back
So the story goes
There is a side of you and I
Where love no longer goes
Tell me that it'll be alright
But when I'm deep inside I realize
That this our last night
. . .

How could things be so easy some days
And so hard in times when I could use
Some help coming by my way
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
You say that I should be somebody
Don't you think that I'd be funny
In a suit and tie, ol' mister nine-to-five
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
I've been racking my brain
Trying to find a way to make ends meet
I've been making two bridges
Write you songs that you can sing
There ain't anybody else that I could be
Say, how long will it be now
How long will it be now
How long will it be now
How long will it take to make him see my side
I ain't no nine to five
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
If you could only own a mountain made of solid gold
What difference would it make
You'd just have more to break
And I don't know why you won't take me for myself
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself
I just don't know why you won't take me for myself

Last night I got Loaded
On a bottle of gin, on a bottle of gin
Last night I got loaded
On a Bottle of gin, on a bottle of gin
But I feel alright, I feel alright
I feel alright, I feel alright
Night before last I got loaded
On a bottle of whiskey, on a bottle of whiskey
Night before last I got loaded
On a bottle of whiskey, on a bottle of whiskey
But I feel alright, I feel alright
I feel alright, I feel alright
Tonight I might get loaded
On a bottle of wine, on a bottle of wine
Tonight I might get loaded
On a bottle of wine, on a bottle of wine
But I feel alright, I feel alright
I feel alright, I feel alright

A sonar del bajo sexto
Al compar del contrabajo
Y al arrullo de acordeon
En esta noche cantada
Bajo al pie de tu ventana
Vengo entregarte mi amor
Hace tiempo que te quiero
Hace tiempo que te adoro
Con todo mi corazon
Y te juro que no miento
Pues jamas un buen norteno
Habla sin tener honor
Serenata nortena
Al estilo Nuevo Leon
Que tambien en Matamoros
Por Reynosa y Rio Bravo
Son de pura tradicion
Por estas que no le estrane
Que no venga con mariachi
Que no venga con orquesta
O con cualquier otro son
Pero es que aqui en mi Norte
Pero es que aqui en mi Norte
Reina mas el acordeon
Chaparrita de mi vida
Mi nenita consentida
Eres tambo y orejon
Y al perfume de tu encanto
Yo te adoro, te idolatro
Con todo mi corazon
Serenata nortena
Al estilo Nuevo Leon
Que tambien en Matamoros
Por Reynosa y Rio Bravo
Son de pura tradicion

Evangeline is on the roam
Just barely seventeen
When she left home
Don't know where she is
Or where she's going
She is the queen of make believe, Evangeline
I can still remember this little girl
Black eyes just staring
At this big old world
Ran off to find some American dream
Train ticket in one hand
In her new blue jeans
Evangeline is on the roam
Just barely seventeen
When she left home
Don't know where she is
Or where she's going
She is the queen of make believe, Evangeline
She went out dancin' on a Saturday night
Silk stockings and high heels
Blue liner on her eyes
But on Sunday morning she's all alone
Head lying on the nightstand
By the telephone
Evangeline is on the roam
Just barely seventeen
When she left home
Don't know where she is
Or where she's going
She is the queen of make believe, Evangeline
She is the queen of make believe, Evangeline

You know your love for me
Has given me a thrill
And I just can't stand still
Pretty mama, you know I love you so
'Cause I love you and I want you, Baby
I got to let you know
You know your kiss kiss kiss
Has set me off my feet
And that just can't be beat
Pretty mama, with any other girl
'Cause I love you and I want you, Baby
I got to let you know
Every night in my dreams
I can hold you near
Even then I still feel
That loving you is real
You know my love's still strong
And I'm still holding on
Ain't nothing we can't do
Pretty darlin', you know I love you so
'Cause I love you and I want you, Baby
I got to let you know
Every night in my dreams
I can hold you near
Even then I still feel
That loving you is real
You know my love's still strong
And I'm still holding on
Ain't nothing we can't do
Pretty mama, you know I love you so
'Cause I love you and I want you, Baby
I got to let you know
'Cause I love you and I want you, Baby
I got to let you know

Through the chill of winter
Running across the frozen lake
Hunters are out on his trail
All odds are against him
With a family to provide for
The one thing he must keep alive
Will the wolf survive?
Drifting by the roadside
Climbs each storm and aging face
Wants to make some morning's fate
Losing to the range war
He's got two strong legs to guide him
Two strong arms keep him alive
Will the wolf survive?
Standing in the pouring rain
All alone in a world that's changed
Running scared, now forced to hide
In a land where he once stood with pride
But he'll find his way by the morning light
Sounds across the nation
Coming from your hearts and minds
Battered drums and old guitars
Singing songs of passion
It's the truth that they all look for
The one thing they must keep alive
Will the wolf survive?
Will the wolf survive?
