"She's Had All The Dreamin' She Can Stand"

"She's Had All The Dreamin' She Can Stand"


Chased our dreams endlessly, through it all she stood by me
More than that Lord, she was such a friend
Dreamin's all I had to give, she needed more to live
She's had all the dreamin' she can stand.

She was always good to me, good as anyone to be
And I was always part of all her plans
But one by one the dreams all died
And late at night I'd hear her cryin'
She's had all the dreamin' she can stand.

She's had all the dreamin' she can stand
She wants something real she can hold in her hand
Things like other people have not just dreams that's all gone bad
She's had all the dreamin' she can stand.

[Instrumental]

She's had all the dreamin' she can stand
She wants something real she can hold in her hand
Things like other people have not just dreams that's all gone bad
She's had all the dreamin' she can stand.

Things like other people have not just dreams that's all gone bad
She's had all the dreamin' she can stand...

"Sing A Happy Song"

"Sing A Happy Song"



Everybody oughta sing a happy song
Be thankful to be a-livin'
The good things that you get
Are just interest on your givin'

And walkin' a mile kind words in a smile
To everyone you meet all along
Can multiply with each passin' by
And we all sing a happy song

Well, it's a sad ol' world that we're a-livin'
A man told me yesterday
Well, he said I didn't have any reason to care
'Cause tomorrow I'd be blown away

Well, I wondered, was he right
And I wear all night until the new day came along
Then the sun shone bright and the world looked bright
So I sang me a happy song

Everybody oughta sing a happy song
Be thankful to be a-livin'
The good things that you get
Are just interest on your givin'

And walkin' a mile, kind words in a smile
To everyone you meet all along
Can multiply with each passin' by
And we all sing a happy song

Well, today you need a program
To see who to shootin' who
And I hear folks a-sayin'
That tomorrow we'll all be through

'Cause we got a bum and they got a bum
And all God's children got a bum
I don't know what's wrong
But we'll all get along
If we just sing a happy song

Everybody oughta sing a happy song
Be thankful to be a-livin'
The good things that you get
Are just interest on your givin'

And walkin' a mile, kind words in a smile
To everyone you meet all along
Can multiply with each passin' by
And we all sing a happy song

Everybody oughta sing a happy song
Be thankful to be a-livin'
The good things that you get
Are just interest on your givin'

And walkin' a mile kind words in a smile
To everyone you meet all along
Can multiply with each passin' by
And we all sing a happy song

Can multiply with each passin' by
And we all sing a happy song

"Sing Me Back Home"

"Sing Me Back Home"


The warden let the prisoner down the hallway to his doom
I stood up to say goodbye like all the rest
And I heard him tell the warden just before he reached my cell
Let my guitar playing friend do my request.

Let him sing me back home with the song I used to hear
Make my old mem'ries come alive
Take me away and turn back the years
Sing me back home before I die.

[Instrumental]

I recall last Sunday morning a choir from off the street
Came in to sing a few old gospel songs
And I heard him ask the singers there's a song my mama sang
Could I hear it once before you move along.

Won't you sing me back home with the song I used to hear
Make my old mem'ries come alive
Take me away and turn back the years
Sing me back home before I die.

Sing me back home before I die...

"Sing That Kind Of Song"

"Sing That Kind Of Song"


Sing me a song about heartache
Sing me a song sad and blue
Make me remember old mem'ries
Make it remind me of you.

Put in plenty of teardrops
Make my emotions overflow
Sing me a song about a love affair gone wrong
Make me cry, sing that kind of song.

Leave out all of the happiness
Put in all of the loneliness
And sing me a song bout a love affair gone wrong
Make me cry, sing that kind of song.

[Instrumental]

Leave out all of the happiness
Put in all of the loneliness
And sing me a song bout a love affair gone wrong
Make me cry, sing that kind of song...

"Smooth Sailin'"

"Smooth Sailin'"


There's a gonna be smooth sailin' from now on
'Cause my cheatin' baby's gone.
Diamond rings, I can't afford
So I threw her overboard
Smooth sailin' from now on.

Well, I've satisfied my hanker
And I've got somebody new
When I could loose my anchor
I saw the last of you

There's a gonna be smooth sailin' from now on
'Cause my cheatin' baby's gone
Maybe I'll have peace of mind
'Cause I know just what I'll find
Smooth sailin' from now on.

[Instrumental]

I've got me a new baby all my own
And I'll never sail my ship alone
From her head to her feet
She's got all those others beat
Smooth sailin' from now on.

I'll be the skipper
And we'll have a little crew
She and I and kisses
And Oh yes, Mr. Moon.

There's a gonna be smooth sailin' from now on
'Cause my cheatin' baby's gone
Maybe I'll have peace of mind
'Cause I know just what I'll find
Smooth sailin' from now on...

"Someone With No One To Love"

"Someone With No One To Love"


I'm as sad as a bird that can't sing
I'm lonely as a bell that can't ring
I'm blue as the sky up above
I'm just someone with no one to love.

No one,
No one,
I'm just someone
With no one to love.

[Instrumental]

I'm as sad as a leaf in the wind
I'm lonely as a man with no friend
I'm cold as a hand with no glove
I'm just someone with no one to love.

No one,
No one,
I'm just someone
With no one to love.

I'm just someone
With no one to love...

"Something's Wrong"

"Something's Wrong"


The love we used to know slipped away so long ago
It faded into ashes now it's gone
It's hard to live each day when there's nothing left to say
And there's nothing left to say but something's wrong.

Something's wrong when you no longer want to hold me
Something's wrong when your lips have turned to stone
When the love of your life turns into a waste of time
When there's no peace of mind something's wrong.

[Instrumental]

This house that love once made now has withered and decayed
For it takes more than nails and boards to make a home
Goodbye has crossed my mind at least a thousand times
For a house is not a home when something's wrong.

Something's wrong when you no longer want to hold me
Something's wrong when your lips have turned to stone
When the love of your life turns into a waste of time
When there's no peace of mind something's wrong.

When there's no peace of mind something's wrong...

"Song And Dance"

"Song And Dance"


Song and dance, song and dance
You're gettin' tired of your new romance
You're back now beggin' for another chance
Singin' that same old song and dance.

Well, you bought a ticket and you caught a train
You waved at me through the window pane
But you'll be back and it won't be long
And you'll be singin' that same old song.

Song and dance, song and dance
You're gettin' tired of your new romance
You're back now beggin' for another chance
Singin' that same old song and dance.

[Instrumental]

Well, you said you's gonna make you some brand new plans
And that you's gonna find you a brand new man
That's the same ol' song that I've heard before
And that's the same ol' dance on the same ol' floor.

Song and dance, song and dance
You're gettin' tired of your new romance
You're back now beggin' for another chance
Singin' that same old song and dance.

You're back now beggin' for another chance
Singin' that same old song and dance...

"Storm Of Love"

"Storm Of Love"


There's a storm of love a brewin'
Now, I'm a losin' you and nothin' that I do can make you stay
When you love me too my skies were always blue
But now the storm of love is on its way.

Everybody thought that we were perfect you and me
That we'd always be together for eternity
But the forecast wasn't quite the way it seemed to be
And the cloudy sky is all that I can see.

There's a storm of love a brewin'
Now, I'm a losin' you and nothin' that I do can make you stay
When you love me too my skies were always blue
But now the storm of love is on its way.

[Instrumental]

Like a leaf in the wind, what's my destiny
Without you I see only misery
Yesterday the weather changed now you grow cold to me
Now a cloudy sky is all that I can see.

There's a storm of love a brewin'
Now, I'm a losin' you and nothin' that I do can make you stay
When you love me too my skies were always blue
But now the storm of love is on its way...

"Streets Of Bakersfield"

"Streets Of Bakersfield"


I came here lookin' for somethin'
I couldn't find anywhere else
Well, I don't want to be nobody,
Just want a chance to be myself.

I've done a thousand miles of thumbin',
Yes, I've worn blisters on my heels
Trying to find me something better
On the streets of Bakersfield.

[Chorus:]
You don't know me but you don't like me,
You say you care less how I feel
How many of you that sit and judge me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?

[Instrumental]

Spent some time in San Francisco,
Spent a night there in the can
They threw this drunk man in my jail cell,
I took fifteen dollars from that man.

I left him my watch and my old house keys,
I don't like folks thinking that I'd steal
Then I thanked him as he was sleeping,
And I headed out for Bakersfield.

[Chorus:]
You don't know me but you don't like me,
You say you care less how I feel
How many of you that sit and judge me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield

How many of you that sit and judge me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield...
