"Crying"

"Crying"

I was all right
For a while
I could smile for a while
And then I saw you last night
You held my hand so tight
As you stopped to say hello
As you wished me well
You couldn't tell that
That I'd been crying

I thought that I
Was over you
But it's true oh so true
I love you even more than I did before
But darlin' what can I do
For you don't love me
And I'll always be
Crying
Over you
Crying
Over you

Yes now you're gone
And from this moment on
I'll be crying
Crying
Crying
Crying
Crying
Crying
Oh over you

I was all right
For a while
I could smile for a while

"Daddy"

"Daddy"

I sang about Mama, but I guess I forgot Daddy
So Dad, this is for you

Who's the one who used to tickle your toes
And wrinkle his nose
Who taught you how a choo-choo goes
Daddy
Oh Daddy

And who's the one who'd wake in darkest night
To see if you were alright
His baby sleeping tight
Daddy
Daddy

Who's the one who worked so hard all day
But when his job was through
He'd come home and play with you
Daddy
Daddy

And who's the one who let you put some lipstick on
And wear your hair down long
When Mom was gone
Daddy
Daddy

It was Daddy
My Daddy

Daddy
Oh Daddy

And who's the one that would wait up late
Waiting on his baby girl to tell him all about her date
Daddy
Daddy

And who's the one who saw your tears were real
And said no matter how you feel
A love wound will heal
Daddy
Daddy

And who's the one who's cared your whole life through
Now there's someone who has taken you
And who's the one on your wedding day
Who has to smile and say
I do I give my girl away
Daddy
My Daddy

"Didn't It Rain"

"Didn't It Rain"

Didn't it rain children
Talk about rain oh my Lord
Didn't it fall didn't it fall
Didn't it fall my Lord didn't it rain

Didn't it rain children
Talk about rain oh my Lord

Oh it rained forty days
And it rained forty nights
There was no land no where in sight
God send the angel to spread the news
He haste his wings and away he flew
To the East to the West
To the North to the South
All day all night how it rained how it rained

Didn't it rain children
Talk about rain oh my Lord
Didn't it fall didn't it fall
Didn't it fall my Lord didn't it rain

Some at the window some at the door
Some said Noah can't you take a little more
No no said Noah no no my friends
The nature got to keep you can't get in
I told you I told you a long time ago
You wouldn't hear me you disobey me
Lord send the angel a warning to you
It began to rain and now you are through

Well it rained forty days
Forty nights without stopping
Noah was glad
When the rain stopped dropping
Knock at the window knock at the door
Come on brother Noah
Can't you take any more
No no my brothers you are full of sin
God has the key you can't get in
Would you listen how it rained

Didn't it rain children
Talk about rain oh my Lord
Didn't it fall didn't it fall
Didn't it fall my Lord didn't it rain

Didn't it rain children
Talk about rain oh my Lord
Didn't it fall didn't it fall
Didn't it fall my Lord didn't it rain

"Do What You Gotta Do"

"Do What You Gotta Do"

Girl, I can understand how it might be
Kinda hard to love a guy like me
I don't blame you much for wanting to be free
I just wanted you to know

I've loved you better that your own kin did
From the very start it's my own fault
What happens to my heart
You see I've always known you'd go

So you just do what you gotta do
My wild sweet love
Though it may mean that I'll never kiss
Those sweet lips again

Pay that no mind
Find that dappled dream of yours
Come on back and see me when you can

Now I know it'll make you feel sad
And make you feel so bad
They say you don't treat me me like you should
They got ways to make you feels no good
I guess they got no way to know

I've had my eyes wide open from the start
And girl, you never lied to me
The part of you that they'll never see
Is the part you've shown to me

So you just do what you gotta do
My wild sweet love
Though it may mean that I'll never kiss
Those sweet lips again

Pay that no mind
Find that dappled dream of yours
Come on back and see me when you can

"Do You Wanna Go To Heaven"

"Do You Wanna Go To Heaven"

It was the hottest day of August
All of us were down by the banks of the Paint Rock River
I was next in line to be baptized
At the innocent age of ten

And I'll never forget I remember it yet
The taste of that clear pure water
And that preacher's words still fill my head
And I hear them now and then he said

Do you wanna go to heaven
And I said yeah just lead me on
Take my hand can you feel that feeling
And I said yes just lead me on

It was the hottest day of summer
And our final high school dance was just about over
I was old enough for the taste of love
When boys turn into men

And I'll never forget I remember it yet
The taste of that clear pure water
But the preacher's words I barely heard
As sweet Bonnie Lou gave in she said

It was a lonely night in August
She was sitting at the end of the bar when I saw her
And with a little wine and an little time
She would be a prize to win

Now I'll never forget I remember it yet
The taste of that clear pure water
But that preacher's words could not be heard
When she whispered come on in she said

"Doctor Good"

"Doctor Good"

Doctor God, Doctor God
Won't you give me an appointment
Been so long since I've had a check up
Can you squeeze me in today?

Doctor God, oh Doctor God
I know there's a long line waiting
Emergency situation
And I need you
Doctor God

Now I have come to seek the prophet, yeah
Oh
Can you tell me is he in today
Show me to the man with the healing hands
And tell him to come and take me by my hand
Don't you know I need, I need the Doctor,
Right away

Doctor God, Doctor God
Can you forgive me for the way I've been living
Taking more than giving
I'm just tired of living this way

Doctor God, Oh Doctor God
Show me that road to salvation
And lead me away from temptation
And close the door to hate
Oh, Doctor God

"Don't Worry"

"Don't Worry"

Don't worry 'bout me, it's all over now
Though I may be blue, I'll manage somehow
Love can't be explained, can't be controlled
One day it's warm, next day it's cold.

Don't pity me, 'cause I'm feelin' blue
Don't be ashamed, it might have been you
Oh, oh, oh, oh, love, kiss me one time, then go, love
I'll understand, don't worry 'bout me.

Sweet, sweet, sweet love; I want you to be
As happy as I, when you loved me
I'll never forget you, your sweet memory
It's all over now, don't worry 'bout me.

When one heart tells, one heart, one heart good-bye
One heart is free, one heart will cry
Oh, oh, oh, oh, sweet, sweet baby sweet, baby sweet
It's alright, don't worry 'bout me

"Don't Worry, Baby"
(originally by The Beach Boys)

"Don't Worry, Baby"
(originally by The Beach Boys)

Well, it's been building up inside of me
For, oh, I don't know how long
I don't know why
But I keep thinkin'
Somethings bound to go wrong

But she looks in my eyes
And makes me realize
When she says
(Don't worry baby)
Don't worry baby
(Don't worry baby)
Everything will turn out alright
(Don't worry baby)
Don't worry baby
(Don't worry baby)
(Baby)

Each morning I awake and fine
The sunlight softly shining in her hair
And then I realize that I'm only
Thinkin' that she really doesn't care
There's magic in her eyes
That makes me come alive
When she says

(Don't worry baby)
Don't worry baby
(Don't worry baby)
Everything will turn out alright
(Don't worry baby)
Don't worry baby
(Don't worry baby)
Don't worry baby

She told me Baby, when you leave today
Just take along my love with you
And if you knew how much I loved you
Baby nothing could go wrong with you
Oh what she does to me
When she makes love to me
And she says

(Don't worry baby)
Don't worry baby
(Don't worry baby)
Everything will turn out alright
(Don't worry baby)
Don't worry baby
(Don't worry baby)
Don't worry baby
Everything will turn out alright

"Don't You Love Me Anymore"

"Don't You Love Me Anymore"

Oh oh
I thought I'd see you smile
When I walked in the door
Thought those arms of yours would be open wide
The way they were before
Why do you look at me
Like I'm some stranger now
Why do you pull away
When you used to hold me so tight

Don't you love me anymore
Have your learned to live your life without me
Don't you love me, anymore
When did the fire go out
Where did the feeling go
Did it slip away when I wasn't there
Baby now I've come home
I thought you'd want me babe
I was so sure you'd ask me to to stay
I thought you'd need this too
Guess it didn't work out that way

Don't you love me anymore
Have you learned to live your life without me
Don't you love me anymore
Darling

When did the fire go out
Where did the feeling go
Why do you pull away
When you used to hold me so close baby
Don't you love me anymore
Have your learned to live your life without me
Don't you love me anymore
Don't you love me anymore
Have your learned to live your life without me

"Early Morning Hush"

"Early Morning Hush"

Sometimes I wake up and the dark of night is creeping
And the early morning hush is all around
I wonder if any of my dreams are worth keeping
Or are they as foolish as they sound

There's so little time
And so much living
And so many treasures to be found
Maybe someday I'll find myself a warm bed to sleep in
Then the early morning hush won't get me down

There's so little time
And so much living
And so many treasures to be found
Maybe someday I'll find myself a warm bed to sleep in
Then the early morning hush won't get me down

Oh
Maybe someday I'll find myself a warm bed to sleep in
Then the early morning hush won't get me down

Early morning hush
Early morning hush
Early morning hush
