"Rocking Chair"

"Rocking Chair"


Old rockin' chair's got me, my cane by my side
Fetch me that gin, son, 'fore I tan your hide
Can't get from this cabin, goin' nowhere
Just set me here grabbin' at the flies round this rockin' chair

My dear old aunt Harriet, in Heaven she be
Send me sweet chariot, for the end of the trouble I see
Old rockin' chair gets it, Judgement Day is here
Chained to my rockin' chair

Old rockin' chair's got me, son, (Rocking chair got you, father)
My cane by my side, (Yes, your cane by your side)
Now fetch me a little gin, son (Ain't got no gin, father)
What? 'fore I tan your hide, now, (You're gonna tan my hide)

You know, I can't get from this old cabin (What cabin? joking)
I ain't goin' nowhere (Why ain't you goin' nowhere?)
Just sittin' me here grabbin' (Grabbin')
At the flies round this old rockin' chair (Rockin' chair)

Now you remember dear old aunt Harriet, (Aunt Harriet)
How long in Heaven she be? (She's up in Heaven)
Send me down, send me down sweet (Sweet chariot) chariot

Old rockin' chair gets it, son (Rocking chair get it, father)
Judgement Day is here, too (Your Judgement Day is here)
Chained to my rockin', old rockin' chair

Go down easy and let me take my time.
Go down easy and let me take my time.
Rock me slow till I lose my mind.

[Chorus:]
Roll it over, let's take it from behind.

It's only love, God knows it ain't no crime.

You don't know how much it means to be here in your arms.

"Rollin' And Tumblin'"

"Rollin' And Tumblin'"


Well, I woke up this morning, my biscuit rolling on.

Well now, come here baby, sit down on daddy's knee.
Well now, come here baby, sit down on daddy's knee.
I want to tell you about the way they treated me.

Well, I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long.
Well, I rolled and I tumbled, cried the whole night long.
When I woke up this morning, all I had was gone.

"Run"

"Run"


Love on my mind, I used to be
Living it up, fancy free,
Then one night it came to an end;
I met that girl and the trouble began.

[Chorus:]
Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run.
Whatcha gonna do to me?
Something inside of me keeps on telling me to run.
Whatcha gonna do to me?

I was hooked with just one look,
Easy prey, child's play.
I knew this girl was no one night stand;
Felt just like putty in her hands.

[Chorus]

Got no answers, got no cure,
But one thing I know for sure:
This is the girl, she's the one.
She makes it so hard for me to run.

[Chorus]

People tell me,
You might as well face it, she's covered all the bases.
You might as well face it, she's covered all the bases.

[Chorus 2x]

"Run Back To Your Side"

"Run Back To Your Side"


'Fore the daylight catch me
I'll be moving on
'Fore the daylight catch me
I'll be moving on
I got nothing to lose, boy
All I had is gone

I should've know better
I should've hung around
I should've know better
I should've hung around
I had my head out of the window
Big beat on the ground

I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
You know that I miss you
Can't be satisfied

Well, I don't wanna be here
When the sun go down
I don't wanna be here
When the sun go down
Another day goin' nowhere
In this lonesome town

I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
Well, you know that I miss you
Can't be satisfied

I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
But you know that I miss you
Can't be satisfied

'Fore the daylight catch me
I'll be moving on
'Fore the daylight catch me

"Run Home To Me"

"Run Home To Me"


We went down to the seaside,
One cold frosty morning.
Just to go out for a drive,
For an hour or two.

I walked down to the water,
With my love and our baby.
Watched the waves breaking in,
We're enjoying the view.

Then I heard myself saying,
"We should do this more often,
To watch the little ones playing,
On that bright stony shore."

And I wished deep down in my heart,
That we could stay here forever.
In these sweet simple moments,
That will come back no more.

When it's 3 o'clock in the morning,
And something scared you from your breast,
I will gently rock you in my arms,
And lay your little head on my chest,

And when you run, from my arms,
Know we'll always find you.
And when you run, out of loving,
And run home to me. (Run home to me)

And the years fly by so quickly,
Like a plane before my eyes,
And you've grown up into a woman,
Before I had time, had time to realize.

And then you'll run, from my arms,
And we'll always come and find you.
And when you run, out of loving,
Then run home to me.

Lord when you run, run out of my arms,
We will always come and find you,
And when you run, out of loving,
Then run home to me. (Run home to me)

"Run So Far"

"Run So Far"


You fly
Out as your smile wears thin
And I sigh
Knowing the mess you're in
And you know that you can't get away
And you know you can't hide it from yourself

Lonely days, heavy heart
No escape, can only run so far

I know
Something I ought to say
Stuck here
Trying to find a way
And you know that you can't get away
And you know you can't hide it from yourself

Lonely nights, blue guitar
No way out, can only run so far

Lonesome tears, at the bar
One way street, can only run so far

I pray
That you might make it through
Those teardrops
Now seems a part of you
And you know that you can't get away
And you know you can't hide it from yourself

Fallin' down, under par
Can't get out, can only run so far

Lonely days, heavy heart
No escape, can only run so far

Lonesome tears, at the bar
One way street, can only run so far

"Runaway Train"

"Runaway Train"


There's a hungry road I can only hope's
Gonna eat me up inside.
There's a drifting spirit coming clean
In the eye of a lifelong fire.
Till Monday I'll be around next week;
I'm running ahead of my days.
In the shotgun chance that scattered us,
I've seen the error of my ways.

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh.

Well we've wrapped ourselves in golden crowns
Like sun gods spitting rain.
Found a way home written on this map
Like red dye in my veins.
In the hardest times that come around,
The fear of losing grows.
I've lost and seen the world shut down;
It's a darkness no one knows.

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh.

And I've poured out the pleasure and dealt with the pain.
I'm standing in a station waiting in the rain.
I'm starting to feel a little muscle again,
But love is lost like a runaway train.

I'm out of control and out of my hands.
I'm tearing like a demon through no man's land.
I'm trying to get a grip on my life again.
Nothing hits harder than a runaway train.

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh.

"Running On Faith"

"Running On Faith"


[Chorus:]
Lately I've been running on faith
What else can a poor boy do?
But my world will be right
When love comes over you

Lately I've been talking in my sleep
I can't imagine what I'd have to say
Except my world will be right
When love comes back your way

I've always been
One to take each and every day
Seems like by now
I'd find a love who cares just for me

Then we'd go running on faith
All of our dreams would come true
And our world will be right
When love comes over me and you

[Chorus]

Then we'd go running on faith
All of our dreams would come true
And our world will be right
When love comes over me and you
When love comes over you
