"I Washed My Hands In Muddy Water"

"I Washed My Hands In Muddy Water"


I was born in Macon Georgia
They kept my daddy over in Macon jail
He told me if you keep your hands clean
You won't hear them bloodhounds on your trail

Well I fell in with bad companions
Robbed a man, oh up in Tennessee
They caught me way up in Nashville
They locked me up and threw away the key

I washed my hands in muddy water
Washed my hands, but they didn't come clean
Tried to do what my daddy told me
But I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream

Well I asked the judge now when's my time up
He said son, oh you know we won't forget
If you try just to keep your hands clean
We might just make a good man of you yet

Oh I couldn't wait to get my time up
I broke out, broke out of Nashville jail
I just crossed the state-line of Georgia
Well I can hear those bloodhounds on my trail

I washed my hands in muddy water
Washed my hands, but they didn't come clean
Tried to do what my daddy told me
But I must have washed my hands in a muddy stream

"I Will Be Home Again"

"I Will Be Home Again"


I will be home again
Don't worry dear
I'll be home again
So won't you dry the tear
The promise in your eyes
Will see me through
There'll be brighter skies
When I come back to you

A-a-ah sweetheart
The love you're giving
Thrills my hungry heart
You make my life worth the living
Although we are apart
I will be home again
We'll start anew
Darling until then
Our dreams will have to do

A-a-ah sweetheart
The love you're giving
Thrills my hungry heart
You make my life worth the living
Although we are apart
I will be home again
We'll start anew
Darling until then
Our dreams will have to do

"I Will Be True"

"I Will Be True"


I will be true
No matter what they may say
I will be true
Although you're far, far away

Each night I pray
All day I'll say silent prayers
That when I open my door
I'll find you there

Somehow I feel
That someday we'll meet again
Don't ask me how
It's something I can't explain

Until the day
I give up all hope of you
Assure yourself this, I'll do
I will be true

That someday we'll meet again
Don't ask me how
It's something I can't explain

Until the day
I give up all hope of you
Assure yourself this, I'll do
I will be true

"I'll Be Back"

"I'll Be Back"


All right

Well, I'll be back, yeah, I'll be back
Like a homesick train on a one-way track
I got to travel and hit the gravel
But I'll be back, yeah, I'll be back

Well, I'll return, I shall return
Don't cool those lips, we're gonna see 'em burn
'Cause I'll be missin' your kinda kissin'
But I'll be back, yeah, I'll be back

Yeah, there ain't nobody to tell me stay or go, oh no
And no one tells the four winds where to blow
I'll be back, I'm comin' back
Don't throw away that welcome mat

The door I'm hopin', will still be open a teeny weenie crack
To your shack
So keep that love light burnin'
But I'll be back, yeah, I'll be back

Yeah, there ain't nobody to tell me stay or go, oh no
And no one tells the four winds where to blow
I'll be back, I'm comin' back
Don't throw away that welcome mat

The door I'm hopin' will still be open a teeny weenie crack
To your shack
So keep that love light burnin', I'll be back
Yeah, I'll be back

"I'll Be Home For Christmas"

"I'll Be Home For Christmas"


I'll be home for Christmas,
You can plan on me.
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents for the tree.

Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light leads.
I'll be home for Christmas, oh yes
If only in my dreams.

"I'll Be Home On Christmas Day"

"I'll Be Home On Christmas Day"


On the hills of Georgia
Across the plains of Tennessee
I've seen and I've done most everything
That a man can do or see
But if I could only borrow one dream from yesterday
I'd be on that train tomorrow
I'll be home on Christmas day

And so many times before
She left that candle burning
Oh, too many tears fell
My soul fills with yearning
If I had sense at all
I'd just be on my way
Be on that train tomorrow
Be home on Christmas day

Everytime I think about her
All the love I left behind
Memories still linger in my troubled mind
I could set aside my pride
And I'd be on my way
I'd catch that train tomorrow
And be home on Christmas day

If I had any sense at all
I'd just be on my way
I'd catch that train tomorrow
I'd be home on Christmas day
I said I'd catch that train tomorrow
I'd be home on Christmas day

"I'll Be There"

"I'll Be There"


I'll be there when all your dreams are broken
To answer your unspoken prayer, oh....
When the little things you're doin', ooh, don't turn out right
Don't you worry darlin' I'll be there

There whenever you need to know that there is someone who cares, oh yeah!
So if your new love isn't your true love
Don't you worry darlin', I'll be there

There whenever you need to know that there is someone who cares, oh yeah!
So if your new love isn't your true love
Don't you worry darlin', I'll be there
Don't you worry darlin', I'll be there
Don't you worry darlin', I'll be there

"I'll Hold You In My Heart"


I said I'd hold, I said I'd hold,

Like you've never been held before
Well I'll think of you each day and then I'll dream the night away

"I'll Never Fall In Love Again"

"I'll Never Fall In Love Again"


I've been in love so many times
I thought I knew the score
Now you've treated me so wrong
I can't take any more

And it looks like I'm never gonna fall in love again
Fall in love, I'm never gonna fall in love
I mean it, I mean it, fall in love again

I gave my heart so easily, cast aside my pride
When I saw you in his arms baby
I broke up and cried

And it looks like I'm never gonna fall in love again
That's what I'm sayin' Fall in love, No, I'm never gonna fall in love
Please don't make me fall in love again

That's why I, no, I'm never gonna fall in love
Please don't make me, don't make me, fall in love again
