"What Would My Mama Say"

"What Would My Mama Say"


You don't know what it's about, but you go out and try
You're young and your wings have just feathered
And you're dying to fly
Dreaming is easy, but living is hard I'm afraid
I come from South Georgia
And I feel like I walked all the way

How much does it cost to Valdosta
How much for just a part of the way
Lord I'm tired and I'm hungry
And I ain't got much money
What would my mama say

Sometimes the notion comes,
One wants to just run away
From all that he's bothered by
Little things, day after day
Sometimes the rain is cold
Sometimes the sun shines down
Life's just a ball game
that can't be played all in one town

How much does it cost to Valdosta
How much for just a part of the way
Lord I'm tired and I'm hungry
And I ain't got much money
What would my mama say

How much does it cost to Valdosta
How much for just a part of the way
Lord I'm tired and I'm hungry
And I ain't got much money
What would my mama say
What would my mama say

"When A House Is Not A Home"

"When A House Is Not A Home"


I walk up to my door and hate to turn the key
Emptiness is all that waits inside for me
That's how it is when the one you love is gone
That's how it is when your house is not a home
I look around and see things marked with his and hers
Things like these just make things that much worse
That's how it is since I live my life alone
That's how it is since my house is not a home

Is there a way up for soul so torn as mine
Each day I live I'm like a prisoner passin' time
That's how it is ask anyone who lives alone
That's how it is when your house is not a home

"When Two Worlds Collide"

"When Two Worlds Collide"


Your world was so different from mine don't you see
We just couldn't be close though we tried
We both reached for heavens but ours weren't the same
That's what happens when two worlds collide
Your world was made up of things sweet and good
And my world could never fit in wish it could
Two hearts lie in shambles and oh how they've cried
That's what happenes when two worlds collide

Your world was made up...

"Where Have All The Average People Gone"

"Where Have All The Average People Gone"


The people in the city call me country because of how I walk and talk and smile
Well I don't mind them laughin' in the city but the country folks all say I'm citified
The fightin' men may say that I'm a coward because I never pushed no one around
Gentle people call me troublemaker cause I'll always fight and stand my ground
Funny I don't fit where have all the average people gone
Some pious people point and call me sinner because to them I've never seen the light
Other folks think of me as a preacher I'm just doin' what I think is right
The wealthy people think that I am a hobo lean and hungry writin' mornful songs
And the poor poor people think I am a rich man but really I'm just tryin' to get along
Yes it's funny I don't fit tell me where have all the average people gone
And the government has given me a number to simplify my birth and life and death
And still my woman thinks I'm awful important
Like moon and sun and sea and sky and breath
Yes it's funny I don't fit where have all the average people gone
Funny I don't fit where have all the average people gone

You can't roller skate in a buffalo herd

You can't take a shower in a parakeet cage

All you gotta do is put your mind to it
Knuckle down, buckle down, do it, do it, do it
Well, you can't go swimmin' in a baseball pool

"With Pen In Hand"

"With Pen In Hand"


With pen in hand you signed your name today at five I'll be on that train
And you'll be free and I will be alone so alone
If you think we can't find the love we once knew
If you think I can make everything up to you
Then I'll be gone and you'll be on your own on your own
Can you take good care of Johnny can you take him to school everyday
Can you teach him how to catch a fish and keep all those bullys away
Can you teach him how to whistle a tune can you tell him about the Man in the Moon
If you can do these things then maybe he won't miss me maybe he won't miss me
And tonight as you lay in that big lonely bed
Can you look at the pillow where I laid my head
With your heart on fire will you have no desire to kiss me and to hold me
And if you can forget all the good times we had
If you can think that the good times don't outweigh the bad
Then sign your name and I'll be on my way on my way

"Won'tcha Come Be My Friend"

"Won'tcha Come Be My Friend"


I live in the midst of a strawberry field
I pick the strawberries and hand some to you
And if the fruit doesn't suit you I'll hand you some flowers
A strawberry field is a rose garden too

And I love it, every day of my life
I love my children and I'm true to my wife
And I love you, won'tcha come be my friend
You may never get another chance to be insane again

Na-na-na

I'm rich so I'm able to do as I choose
So I cut paper dolls out of yesterday's news
I shop at the market, I dine at the grand
My uncle plays drums in a twenty piece band

And I love it, every day of my life
I love my children and I'm true to my wife
And I love you, won'tcha come be my friend
You may never get another chance to be insane again

Na-na-na

"World I Can't Live In"

"World I Can't Live In"


Once more I've said that I'll leave you
But once more I'm changing my mind
Yours is a world I can't live in
But without you I can't live in mine

You'd rather go places without me
I don't understand you at times
Yours is a world I can't live in
But without you I can't live in mine

Could be it's just your way of loving
And you don't mean to treat me unkind
Yours is a world I can't live in
But without you I can't live in mine

"World So Full Of Love"

"World So Full Of Love"


I know how it feels to be alive with no desire to live
I know how it feels to die inside and try hard to forgive
And my way of finding out is 'cos a love just let me down
In a world so full of love, yet not enough to go around

I was once so proud to have her love
That I could burst with pride
But that sunshine turned to storm
and now that's all I feel inside
It's enough to make me wish
that I could hide and not be found
In a world so full of love yet not enough to go around

I could sit for days and wonder and not find the answer still
By the time I die I wonder if by then I even will
I must live to be a hundred if I hope to live it down
In a world so full of love yet not enough to go around
