"I'll Fly Away"

"I'll Fly Away"


Some glad morning when this life is o'er,
I'll fly away;
To a home on God's celestial shore,
I'll fly away (I'll fly away).

[Chorus]
I'll fly away, Oh Glory
I'll fly away;
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I'll fly away (I'll fly away).

Just a few more weary days and then,
I'll fly away;
To a land where joy shall never end,
I'll fly away (I'll fly away)

[Chorus]

"I'll Go On Loving You"

"I'll Go On Loving You"



When I look into your soft green eyes
When I see your delicate body
Revealed to me as you slip off your dress
I'm reminded what I feel for you
Will remain strong and true
Long after the pleasures of the flesh

Then I'll go on loving you
I'll go on loving you
I'll go on loving you

Be it the wind or the rain
Or the moon up in the sky
The spin of the earth or the changes in the tide
I don't know what brought us together
What strange forces of nature
Conspire to construct the present
From the past

Then I'll go on loving you
I'll go on loving you
I'll go on loving you

When I look into your soft green eyes
When I see your delicate body
Revealed to me as you slip off your dress
I'm reminded what I feel for you
Will remain strong and true
Long after the pleasures of the flesh

Then I'll go on loving you
I'll go on loving you
I'll go on loving you

"I'll Try"

"I'll Try"



Here we are
Talkin' bout forever
Both know damn well
It's not easy together

We've both felt love
We've both felt pain
I'll take the sunshine
Over the rain

And I'll try
To love only you
And I'll try
My best to be true
Oh darlin', I'll try

So I'm not scared
It's worth a chance to me
Take my hand
Let's face eternity

Well I can't tell you
That I'll never change
But I can swear
That in every way

And I'll try
To love only you
And I'll try
My best to be true
Oh darlin', I'll try

I'm not perfect
Just another man
But I will give you
All that I am

And I'll try
To love only you
And I'll try
My best to be true
Oh darlin', I'll try

I'll try
To be true to you
I'll try
I'll try
To always love you
I'll try

"If French Fries Were Fat Free"

"If French Fries Were Fat Free"



Will I need a miss of my life
Each time I went left, I should've gone right
And love's no exception to this rule
Cause I turned around I lost you
Now I'm feeling lonesome and blue
Just the way I expect to
But there's something that I could use
To help me deal with this abuse
If French fries were fat free
And you still love me
If French fries were fat free
And you still love me
What a wonderful world this would be
If the whiskey really helped me
Forget your memory
I'd wear a smile endlessly
If French fries were fat free
And you still love me

You know the more I think about you
The more sense it makes
Cause grease and love both cause heartache
So I raise my glass and toast
These things I want the most
Though I probably never see
I can't help but believing
That if French fries were fat free
And you still love me
What a wonderful world this would be
If the whiskey really helped me
Forget your memory
I'd wear a smile endlessly
If French fries were fat free
And you still love me
Oh if French fries were fat free
And you still love me

"If I Had You"

"If I Had You"



If I could have you
I know what I'd do
This time I'd be true
If I had you

If you could be mine
I'd walk that straight line
There'd be no bad times
If I had you

I make the worst mistake
One fool could ever make
Tell me it's not to late
What can I do

If I could hold you tight
I'd have the world tonight
Everything would be alright
If I had you

I make the worst mistake
One fool could ever make
Tell me it's not to late
What can I do

If I could hold you tight
I'd have the world tonight
Everything would be alright
If I had you
Everything would be alright
If I had you

"If It Ain't One Thing (It's You)"

"If It Ain't One Thing (It's You)"



Well I guess it's just not my day
The wind blew my morning paper away
Then I cut my toe on a sliver of glass
From the stormdoor you broke when you left here so fast

If it ain't one thing it's you
If you've heard that I'm going crazy
It's true
The wheels seem to fall off whatever I do
If it ain't one thing
It's you

Well I rented that movie you hate
But that old VCR just chewed up the tape
Then I went to the freezer thought I'd cook me a steak
All I found was that old piece of our wedding cake

If it ain't one thing it's you
If you've heard that I'm going crazy
It's true
The wheels seem to fall off whatever I do
If it ain't one thing
It's you

But I never knew that I needed you so
But now that I've lost you, I can't let you go

If it ain't one thing oh it's you
If you've heard that I'm going crazy
It's true
The wheels seem to fall off whatever I do
If it ain't one thing
It's you
Oh if it ain't one thing
It's you

"If Jesus Walked The World Today"

"If Jesus Walked The World Today"


If Jesus walked the world today, Hed probably be a Hillbilly
Common man of men and the King of many
Hed lay his hands on his brother man, save us all from the sinnin
If Jesus walked the world today, Hed probably be a Hillbilly

[Instrumental Interlude]

If He was here today I bet Hed drive a Chevrolet
Workin at the plant drawin workers pay
Hed preach in some little country church outside of the city
If Jesus walked the world today, Hed probably be a Hillbilly

If Jesus walked the world today, Hed probably be a Hillbilly
Common man of men and the King of many
Hed lay his hands on his brother man, save us all from the sinnin
If Jesus walked the world today, Hed probably be a Hillbilly

[Instrumental Interlude]

His long hair and sandled feet would be in style
Surround himself with the good old boys to tell His tale
Hed have a mighty cross tatoo on his hands by the nail holes that killed Him
If Jesus walked the world today, Hed probably be a Hillbilly

If Jesus walked the world today, Hed probably be a Hillbilly
Common man of men and the King of many
Hed lay his hands on his brother man, save us all from the sinnin
If Jesus walked the world today, Hed probably be a Hillbilly

[Instrumental Interlude]

Some folks would say it wasnt really Him
You know theyd probably send Him off to some kind of looney bin

They wouldnt hang Him on the cross but theyd find some way to condem Him
If Jesus walked the world today, Hed probably be a Hillbilly

If Jesus walked the world today, Hed probably be a Hillbilly
Common man of men and the King of many
Hed lay his hands on his brother man, save us all from the sinnin
If Jesus walked the world today, Hed probably be a Hillbilly
Hed be a Hillbilly, yeah, Hed be a Hillbilly
Id bet Jesus be a Hillbilly, Lord, you know Hed be a Hillbilly

"If Love Was A River"

"If Love Was A River"



If love was a river
And I was a drowning man
Would you get in the water
Would you lend me a hand
If love was a river
Would you sit on the land

If love was a mountain
High above this town
Would you climb to the top
Would you never look down
If love was a mountain
Would you go around

Love rarely knocks so many times upon your door
And heaven only knows if it will come back anymore
If love was a firefly
Sitting in your hand
Would you laugh when it twinkled
Let it go again
If love was a firefly
Would you understand

If love was a party
With everyone you know
Would you dance if I asked you
Would you smile and say no
If love was a party
Would you even go

Love rarely knocks so many times upon your door
And heaven only knows if it will come back anymore

If love was a fast train on a one-way track
Would you turn in your ticket
Would you never look back
If love was a fast train
Would you even pack?

"If We Make It Through December"
(with Merle Haggard)

"If We Make It Through December"
(with Merle Haggard)



If we make it through December
Everything's gonna be all right, I know
It's the coldest time of winter
And I shiver when I see the falling snow
If we make it through December
Got plans to be in a warmer town
Come summer time
Maybe even California
If we make it through December
We'll be fine

Got laid off down at the factory
And their timing's not the greatest
In the world
Heaven knows I've been working hard
Wanted Christmas to be right
For daddy's girl
I don't mean to hate December
It's meant to be this happy time of year
And my little girl don't understand
Why daddy can't afford no Christmas here

If we make it through December
Everything's gonna be all right, I know
It's the coldest time of winter
And I shiver when I see the falling snow
If we make it through December
Got plans to be in a warmer town
Come summer time
Maybe even California
If we make it through December
We'll be fine...

"If You Don't Wanna See Santa Claus Cry"

"If You Don't Wanna See Santa Claus Cry"



Well I'm making out my list
For ole St. Nick tonight
But I'm afraid what I want this year
Can't be had

But Santa he's the kind
When he makes up his mind
Wishes can come true
And I bet my Christmas stockin'
If my wish don't come knockin'
He's gonna be blue

So baby come home
If you don't wanna see Santa Claus cry
He can't see where he's going
When it's snowing
If there tears in his eyes

And don't you know his ho ho ho will be
A sad sad sigh
So baby come back to me
If you don't wanna see Santa Claus cry

And don't you know his ho ho ho will be
A sad sad sigh
So baby come home to me
If you don't wanna see Santa Claus cry

So baby come back to me
If you don't wanna see Santa Claus cry...
