"In The Hills Of Shiloh"

"In The Hills Of Shiloh"



Have you seen Amanda Blaine in the hills of Shiloh
Wandering through the morning rain in the hills of Shiloh
Have you seen her at her door listening for the cannon roar
And the man who went to war from the hills of Shiloh.

Have you heard her mournful cries in the hills of Shiloh
Have you seen her haunted eyes in the hills of Shiloh
Have you seen her running down searching through the sleepy town
In her yellowed wedding gown in the hills of Shiloh.

Have you seen her standing there in the hills of Shiloh
Wind a blowing through her hair in the hills of Shiloh
Listening for the sound of guns listening for the rolling drums
And the man who never comes to the hills of Shiloh.

Have you heard Amanda sing in the hills of Shiloh
Whispering to her wedding ring in the hills of Shiloh
Hear her humming soft and low poor Amanda doesn't know
It was ended forty years ago in the hills of Shiloh...

"In The Misty Moonlight"

"In The Misty Moonlight"



In the misty moonlight by the flickering firelight
Any place is all right long as I'm with you
In a faraway land on the trophic sea sand
If your hand's in my hand I won't be blue.

Way up on the mountain, a way down in the valley
I know I'll be happy anyplace anywhere I don't care
In the misty moonlight by the flickering firelight
Any place is all right long as you are there.

You know I could be happy in just one little room
With only a table and a chair
As happy as I'd be in a kingdom by the sea
Darling, if you're there.

And I could be rich or I could be poor
But if you were by my side
I could be anyplace in the whole wide world
And I know that I'll be satisfied.

Way up on the mountain, a way down in the valley
I know I'll be happy anyplace anywhere I don't care
In the misty moonlight by the flickering firelight
Any place is all right long as you are there.

Any place is all right long as you are there...

"In The Same Old Way"

"In The Same Old Way"



In the same old way I still love you
And the same foolish heart still beats for you
Nothing's changed about me since you walked out that day
And I still love you in the same old way.

In the same old way your mem'ries haunt me
But I know in my heart you'll never want me
Yes, you're gone but I still love you just like I did yesterday
Yes, I still love you in the same old way.

I guess I should feel better
But I never will
'Cause I still love you
And I can't change the way I feel.

In the same old way, I'm crazy 'bout you
But can't help wondering how I'm goin' to live without you
We've said our last goodbyes by now you're far so far away
And I still love in the same old way.

Yes, I still love in the same old way...

"Invisible Tears"

"Invisible Tears"



Invisible tears in my eyes, incredible pain in my heart
Indestructable memories are passing in review
Impossible though things may get, improbable I will forget
Indelible memories of sweet loveable you.

You're back again so I'll let you in
Altough I'm only stealing pictures from the past
Those arms are not real but somehow I feel
If I'd just close my eyes then maybe it will last.

Invisible tears in my eyes, incredible pain in my heart
Indestructable memories are passing in review
Impossible though things may get, improbable I will forget
Indelible memories of sweet loveable you.

Invisible tears in my eyes, incredible pain in my heart
Indestructable memories are passing in review
Impossible though things may get, improbable I will forget
Indelible memories of sweet loveable you...

"Is It Wrong"

"Is It Wrong"



Is it wrong for loving you, is it wrong for being true
Tell me please, tell me dear is it wrong
Have I waited for so long, has your love for me gone
Is it wrong, is it wrong for loving you?

Oh, way down deep inside my heart you're the only love sweetheart
Yes, the only true love I ever knew
But I ask myself inside, no need tellin' myself lies
Is it wrong, is it wrong for loving you?

(Is it wrong, is it wrong, is it wrong?)

Way down deep inside my heart you're the only love sweetheart
So is it wrong, is it wrong for loving you?...

"Isn't That Just Like Love"

"Isn't That Just Like Love"



It seems so easy
To just fall in love with you
Never intending to
Isn't that just like love?

And we two that once were friends
May never talk again
It seems so sad within
Isn't that just like love?

Friends stop me every day
And ask me why you went away
I just shake my head and say
Isn't that just like love?

To leave me with nights to fill
Knowing our love was still
Knowing I always will
Isn't that just like love?

And sure as my old heart will mend
Someone will smile at me and then
I may just do it all again
Now, isn't that just like love?

Isn't that just like love?
Isn't that just like love?...

"It Ain't Me Babe"

"It Ain't Me Babe"



Go away from my window
Leave at your own chosen speed
I'm not the one you want babe
I'm not the one that you need.

You say you're looking for someone
Never weak but always strong
To protect you and defend you
Whether you are right or wrong.

Someone to open each and every door
But it ain't me babe, no, no, no
It ain't me babe, it ain't me
You're looking for babe.

Go lightly from the ledge babe
Go lightly on the ground
I'm not the one you want babe
I'll only let you down.

You say you're looking for someone
Who'll promise never to part
Someone to close his eyes for you
Someone to close his heart.

Someone to die for you and even more
But it ain't me babe, no, no, no
It ain't me babe, it ain't me
You're looking for babe...

"It's A Freezing In El Paso"

"It's A Freezing In El Paso"



I can hear the footsteps walkin' by my bedside, Lord, she's leavin'
I can smell the perfume driftin' through my room
If I try to make her stay I'd know she couldn't leave and hurt me
Might as well be on the darkside of the moon.

'Cause it's freezin' in El Paso in the summer
All the sweet things here are dyin' on the vine
Wish that woman could have took it when the hard times came around
Wish her winter hadn't spoil my summertime.

So when her plane takes off for Memphis I'll be sittin' in some tavern
I'll be washin' out the corners of my mind
When she's in the wild blue yonder I'll be feedin' that old jukeboy
Playin' every happy song that I can find.

'Cause it's freezin' in El Paso in the summer
All the sweet things here are dyin' on the vine
Wish that woman could have took it when the hard times came around
Wish her winter hadn't spoil my summertime...

"Jackson"

"Jackson"



We got married in a fever hotter than a pepper sprout
We've been talkin' bout Jackson ever since the fire went out
I'm goin' to Jackson, I'm gonna mess around
Yeah, I'm goin' to Jackson, look out Jackson town.

Well, you go on down to Jackson, go ahead and wreck your health
Go play your hand you big talkin' man and make a big fool of yourself
Yeah, yeah, go to Jackson, (I'm goin' baby) but go comb your hair
I'm gonna snowball Jackson, yeah, go ahead and see if I care.

Oh, when I breeze into that city the people gonna stoop and bow
All them Jackson women they're gonna teach me what they don't know how
I'm goin' to Jackson, I turn loose to my coat
Yeah, I'm goin' to Jackson, goodbye, that's all she wrote, (bye bye baby.)

They'll be laughin' at you in Jackson and I'll be dancin' on the pony keg
They'll lead you round the town like a scalded hound
With your tail tucked between your legs
Yeah, yeah, go to Jackson you big talkin' man
And I'll be waitin' in Jackson behind my Japan fan.

We got married in a fever hotter than a pepper sprout
We've been talking 'bout Jackson ever since the fire went out
I'm goin' to Jackson that's a natural fact
Yeah, I'm goin' to Jackson ain't never comin' back.

We got married in a fever hotter than a pepper sprout
We've been talking 'bout Jackson ever since the fire went out
I'm goin' to Jackson that's a natural fact
Yeah, I'm goin' to Jackson ain't never comin' back.

Yeah, we got married in a fever hotter than a pepper sprout
We've been talking 'bout Jackson ever since the fire went out

Yeah, I'm goin' to Jackson ain't never comin' back...

"Jeannie's Last Kiss"

"Jeannie's Last Kiss"



(Come give Jeannie one last kiss.)

The moon hid its light and the midnight was still
And they had their last quarrel on top of the hill
And she said to him please as they stood in the mist
If we must part this way come give Jeannie one last kiss.

But in anger he turned with no kiss and no care
There she stood on the cliff with the wind in her hair
The next mornin' they learned that his Jeannie was dead
Girl climbin' and slipped all the newspapers said.

Then night after night when the moon hides its light
The wind's in the mist
Seem to cry out his name and call him again
Come give Jeannie one last kiss.

Years have gone by and they talk of him still
And the voice that was callin' from the top of the hill
And they tell of the night that he ran from his door
How he ran toward the cliff then was heard from no more.

Now night after night when the moon hides its light
And the wind's in the mist
All the old people swear that he's out there somewhere
To give Jeannie one last kiss.

Come give Jeannie one last kiss...
