I got a woman with plenty of money
She got the money and I got the honey
Called my baby late last night
She told me daddy everything was all right

She got the money and I got the honey
She got the money and I got the honey
She got the money and I got the honey

I don't have to worry about her she's real fine
I know my baby and she's all mine
She give me a cadillac, a diamond ring
She told me daddy don't you worry bout a thing

She got the money and I got the honey
She got the money and I got the honey
She got the money and I got the honey

She's all mine and I'm so glad
She's the best woman that I ever had
She's all mine and I'm so glad
She's all mine and I'm so glad
She's all mine and I'm so glad

Ah, stop your train
Ah mama stop your train

Leaves were falling ..Just like embers
In colors red and gold they set us on fire
Burning just like a moonbeam ..in our eyes

Somebody said they saw me
Swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud.
Killing the Blues

I am guilty of something
I hope you never do because there is nothing
Sadder than losing .. yourself in love

Somebody said they saw me
Swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud.
Killing the Blues

Somebody said they saw me
Swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud.
Killing the Blues

Now, you ask me Just to leave you
To go out on my own and get what I need to
You want me to find ..what I've already had

Somebody said they saw me
Swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud.
Killing the Blues

Somebody said they saw me
Swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud.
Killing the Blues

Strange things are happening every day
I hear the music up above my head
Though the sight of my heart has left me again,
I hear music up above

Secrets are written in the sky
Looks like I've lost the love I've never found
Though the sound of hope has left me again,
I hear music up above

Standing in my broken heart all night long
Darkness held me like a friend when love wore off
Looking for the lamb that's hidden in the cross
The finder's lost

I know I've loved you too much
I'll go on alone to get through

I hear Rosetta singing in the night
Echoes of light that shine like stars after they're gone
Tonight she's my guide as I go on alone
With the music up above

. . .


If the wild bird could speak
He'd tell the places you have been
He's been in my dreams
And he knows all the ways of the winds

Polly, come home again
Spread your wings to the wind
I felt much of the pain
As it begins

Dreams cover much time
Still they leave blind the will to begin
I searched for you there
And now look for you from within

Polly, come home again
Spread your wings to the wind
I felt much of the pain
As it begins

Polly, come home again
Spread your wings to the wind
I felt much of the pain
As it begins

Some sunny day-hay baby
When everything seems okay, baby
You'll wake up and find that youA???re alone
Cause I'll be gone
Gone, gone, gone really gone
Gone, gone, gone, cause you done me wrong

Everyone that you meet baby
As you walk down the street baby
Will ask you why you're walkin' all alone
Why you're on your own
Just say I'm gone
Gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone gone, cause you done me wrong

If you change your way baby
You might back to stay baby
Ya better hurry up if ya don't wanna be alone
Or I'll be gone
Gone, gone, gone
Really gone
Gone, gone, gone
Cause you done me wrong

Done me wrong, now now

Some sunny day-hay baby
When everything seems okay, baby
You'll wake up and find that you're alone
Cause I'll be gone
Gone, gone, gone really gone
Gone, gone, gone, cause you done me wrong
You done me wrong
You done me wrong
well, well, well, well...

Believe me when I tell you
I will try to understand
Belive me when I tell you
I could never kill a man
But to know that another man's holding you tight
Hurts me little darling
Thru the morning thru the night

The bond has been broken
The promise you gave
The words that were spoken
I cannot be your slave
But to know that the trust you had in me is gone
Hurts me little darling
Thru the nightime thru the dawn

I dreamed just last night you were there by my side
Your sweet loving tenderness
Easing my pride
But then I awoke dear and found you not there
It was just my old memory of how much I care

Belive me when I tell you
I will try to understand
Belive me when I tell you
I could never kill a man
But to know that another man's holding you tight
Hurts me little darling
Thru the morning thru the night

Caught out running - just a little too much to hide
Baby baby, everything's gonna work out fine
Please read the letter - I nailed it to your door
It's crazy how it all turned out - you needed so much more

Too late, too late - the fool can read the signs
Baby baby, you better check between the lines
Please read the letter I wrote in my sleep
With the help and consultation of the angels of the deep

Once I stood beside a well of many words
Our house was full of rings and chimes and pretty birds
Please understand me - my walls came falling down
There's nothing here that's left for you
But check with Lost and Found

Please read the letter that I wrote
Please read the letter that I wrote

One more song, just before we go
Remember, baby, the things we used to know
Please read my letter and promise me you'll keep
The secrets and the memory to cherish in the deep

Please read the letter that I wrote
Please read the letter that I wrote

Long way going to
Get my medicine
Sky's the autumn grey of a lonely wren

Piano from a window played
Gone tomorrow, gone yesterday

I found it in the street
At first I did not see
Lying at my feet
A trampled rose

Passing the hat in church
It never stops going 'round

You never pay just once
To get the job done

What I done to me,
I done to you
What happened to the trampled rose?

In the muddy street
With the fireworks and leaves

A blind man with a cup I asked
Would he sing "Kisses Sweeter Than Wine"

I know this rose,
Like I know my name
The one I gave my love,
It was the same
Now I find it in the street,
A trampled rose

. . .


Went to a fortune teller
To have my fortune read
I didnt know what to tell her
I had a dizzy feeling in my head

She took a look of my palm
She said son you feel kind of warm
She looked into a crystal ball
She said youre in love

I said how could that be so
Im not friendly with the girls I know
She said when the next one arrives
You gotta look into her eyes

I left there in a hurry
Looking forward to my big surprise
The next day I discovered
That the fortune teller told me lies

I hurried back down to that woman
As mad as I could be
I said I didnt see nobody
Why'd she made a fool of me

Then something struck me
As if it came from up above
While looking at the fortune teller
I fell in love

Now Im a happy fella
I'm married to the fortune teller
I'm as happy as we can be
Now I get my fortunes told for free

. . .


Everybody's been talkin'
they say our love wasn't real
That it would soon be over
that's not the way I feel
But I don't worry, honey
let them say what they may
Come on and stick with me, baby
we'll find a way
Yes, we'll find a way

Everybody's been talkin'; yes, the news travels fast
They said the fire would stop burnin', that the flame wouldn't last
But I don't worry, honey; let them say what they may
Come on and stick with me, baby; we'll find a way
Yes, we'll find a way

Come on and stick with me, baby
Come on and stick with me, baby
Come on and stick with me, baby
Come on and stick with me, baby
Come on and stick with me, baby

Hey mama, when you leave
don't leave a thing behind
I don't want nothin'
I can't use nothin'

Take care into the hall
and if you see my friends
tell them I'm fine
not using nothin'

Almost burned out my eyes
threw my ears down to the floor
I didn't see nothinA???
I didn't hear nothin'

I stood there like a block of stone
knowin' all I had to know
and nothin' more
man, that's nothin'

Being born is going blind
and bowin' down a thousand times
to echoes strung
on pure temptation

Sorrow and solitude
these are the precious things
and the only words
that are worth rememberin'

Hey mama, when you leave
don't leave a thing behind
I don't want nothin'
I can't I can't use nothin'

I can't use nothin'

. . .


Once I had myself a good woman
But I just didn't treat her right
I was always leaving
Livin' a party life

True love was waiting for me
I was much too blind to see
Till she told me she would leave me
I said that's all right with me

Oh now she's gone
Realize I lost the best thing there is
And my pride keeps telling me
Let your loss be your lesson

Heaven knows I miss her lovin'
Heaven knows how much I cry
Just to think she had left me
And I know the reason why
I could tell she had been cryin'
It didn't seem to bother me
Cause I know there's no one blinder
Than a fool who just couldn't see

Now she's gone
I realize I lost the best thing there is
And my pride keeps tellin' me
Let your loss be your lesson

Let your loss be your lesson

. . .


God's given us years of happiness here
Now we must part
And as the angels come and call for you
The pains of grief tug at my heart

Oh my darling
My darling
My heart breaks as you take your long journey

Oh the days will be empty
The nights so long without you my love
And when god calls for you I'm left alone
But we will meet in heaven above

Oh my darling
My darling
My heart breaks as you take your long journey

Fond memories I'll keep of happy ways
That on earth we trod
And when I come we will walk hand in hand
As one in heaven in the family of god

Oh my darling
My darling
My heart breaks as you take your long journey
