"Someday After A While"

"Someday After A While"

I've got to ride that lonesome train.
My heart is heavy with aches and pain.

[Chorus:]
I said but someday, someday baby,
After a while,
You will be sorry.

Every day, my clouds are grey;
It takes you to roll all those clouds away.

[Chorus]

Trouble, trouble, trouble on my mind.
Trouble, trouble, way down the line.
I don't need, I don't need no sympathy,
So babe, babe, don't you, don't you pity me.

I may be blue, but I don't mind,
Because I know way down the line,

[Chorus]

"Someone Like You"

"Someone Like You"

I got up this morning and fell out of bed
Trying to make it to the door.
The wind was high, I didn't have much time,
Trying to find a man to score.

And then you came up on the other side
To brighten up my day.
I knew right away
That this could be my day.

[Chorus:]
Someone like you
Could make me change my ways.
Someone like you
Could turn the nights into days.

There you were, standing
On a crowded street.
You looked so good, though the air was bad,
Walking through the fog.

[Chorus]

I want to thank you, thank you now
For getting me back on my feet again.
I want to thank you, thank you now
For getting me back on my feet again.

[Chorus 2x]

"Something Special"

"Something Special"

[Chorus:]
She's something special, I can't explain it,
But when she's near me, I can't contain it.
And just one look at her face is good enough for me.

No way of knowing which way I'm going,
But I can't stop it, it keeps on growing.
And just one look at her face is good enough for me.

She ain't too pretty, she ain't too tall,
In fact she ain't too much of anything at all.
I don't care what the people say,
They're going to find out some sweet day.

She is precious, she is charming,
She is so innocent it's really disarming.
And just one look at her face is good enough for me.

[Chorus]

She is precious, she is charming,
She is so innocent it's really disarming.
And just one look at her face is good enough for me,
Is good enough for me,
Is good enough for me.

"Something's Happening"

"Something's Happening"

[Chorus:]
Something's happening, something's going on.
Something's happening, something so strong.
Something's happening, something all over the world.

Spirit's moving and it's moving fast.
You better get aboard and don't be last.
Something's happening, something all over the world.

My life has been a series of endless changes,
A constant struggle to be free.
One thing I know for sure now baby,
It's me for you and you for me.

[Chorus]

[Repeat First Verse]

[Chorus]

"Songbird"
(with Willie Nelson)

"Songbird"
(with Willie Nelson)

For you, there'll be no more crying,
For you, the sun will be shining,
And I feel that when I'm with you,
It's alright, I know it's right

To you, I'll give the world
To you, I'll never be cold
'Cause I feel that when I'm with you,
It's alright, I know it's right.

And the songbirds are singing,
Like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you,
Like never before.

And I wish you all the love in the world,
But most of all, I wish it from myself.
And the songbirds keep singing,
Like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you,
Like never before, like never before.

"Spiral"

"Spiral"

You don't know how much this means
To have this music in me
I just keep playing these blues
Hoping that I don't lose

I just keep playing my song
Hoping that I get along
You don't know how much it means
To have this music in me

In the morning
In the daytime
In the evening
In the nighttime too
I gotta have it
I gotta have this blues
I gotta have it

You don't know how much it means
To have this music in me
I just keep playing my song
Hoping that I get along

In the morning
In the daytime
In the night
In the night time too
In the morning
In the daytime
In the evening
In the midnight hours

I gotta have it
I gotta have
I gotta have this blues
I gotta have it
I gotta have

"Spoonful"

"Spoonful"

Could fill spoons full of diamonds,
Could fill spoons full of gold.
Just a little spoon of your precious love
Will satisfy my soul.

[Chorus:]
Men lies about it.
Some of them cries about it.
Some of them dies about it.
Everything's a-fightin' about the spoonful.
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.
That spoon, that spoon, that spoonful.

Could fill spoons full of coffee,
Could fill spoons full of tea.
Just a little spoon of your precious love;
Is that enough for me?

[Chorus]

Could fill spoons full of water,
Save them from the desert sands.
But a little spoon of your forty-five
Saved you from another man.

[Chorus]

"Sporting Life Blues"

"Sporting Life Blues"

I'm getting tired
Of hanging 'round
Think I will marry
And settle down
'cos this old nightlife
This old sportlife
Is killing me

I've got a letter
From my home
Most of my friends are
Dead and gone
I begin to worry
I begin to wonder
'bout days to come
My mother used to
Talk to me
I was young and foolish
And could not see
Now I've got no mother
My sisters and brothers
Don't care for me
I swear I'm gonna
Change my ways
I'm getting older
Everyday
When I was young and foolish
It was so easy
To run and play

I'm getting tired (I'm getting tired)
Of hanging 'round (of hanging 'round)
Think I will marry (think I will marry)
And settle down (and settle down)
'cos this old nightlife
This old sportlife
Is killing me
This old nightlife
This old sportlife
Is killing me

"Standin' Round Crying"

"Standin' Round Crying"

Oh baby, look how you got me standin' 'round crying.
Oh baby, look how you got me standin' 'round crying.
Lord I love you little girl, you're always resting on my mind.

Oh baby, I ain't gonna be riding you 'round in my automobile.
Oh baby, I ain't gonna be riding you 'round in my automobile.
You got so many men, I'm afraid you may get me killed.

Oh baby, you ain't nothing like you used to be. (No, don't get me killed, honey!)
Oh baby, you ain't nothing like you used to be. (Oh man, leave that woman alone!)
When I was deep in love with you, little girl, you were just sweet as an apple on a tree.

"Starbound"
(performed by Willie Nelson)

"Starbound"
(performed by Willie Nelson)

When you and I are ready, no longer earthly-bound
We'll travel through the crystal night, starbound
Heaven holds a mystery, wrapped inside a sound
Through the eyes of time, starbound, you and I
A floating star is what we are
Suspended in space
Outward-bound it's the only home we've found
To save the human race
Speed is now their captain, kings that lost their crown
Motion is our master, starbound
Starbound
Starbound
