"It's A Sin"

"It's A Sin"


It's a sin, my darlin', how I love you
Because I know our love can never be
It's a sin to keep this memory of you
When silence proves that you've forgetten me.

But dreams are built for us as humblers
Each tie is broken like my heart
It's a sin, my darling, how I love you
So mush in love and yet so far apart

I'm sure you're happy with another
Whose cares and lovin' I can't win
Why pretend that I can live without you
When deep inside I know that it's a sin...

"It's All In My Mind"

"It's All In My Mind"


I Just Turned out the Lights upstairs,
I told you goodnight once again.
Oh, but I did not hear you whisper a word,
you must be sleeping, so I won't come in.
I told the kids to be quieter, mommy needs her rest,
how much silence this house must I find.
Why I even, fixed supper, oh but nobody showed up.
I'm alone now, it's been all in my mind.

Yes, it's all in my mind you've left nothin' behind

I just sit here and dig up all the memories I can find
I'll just turn on that old TV, Hon' while you pour the wine
(I love you), but it's all in my mind.

"It's Been A Beautiful Life"

"It's Been A Beautiful Life"


Darling, I've loved you all of these years
And you've never once caused the heartbreak or tear
Without you to love me oh what would I do
It's been a beautiful life loving you.

And darling, I love you more every day
And I'll stand beside you each step of the way
You've made it heaven, my dreams have come true
It's been a beautiful life loving you.

If ever I need you, you're always there
Life is much sweeter knowing you care
Always together till life is through
It's been a beautiful life loving you...

"It's Been So Long Darling"

"It's Been So Long Darling"


It's been so long darling since I had to go away
It's been so long darling and I can't forget that day
Although you never mentioned it you cried that whole day long
It's been so long darling but now I'm coming home.

It's been so long darling since I gazed into your eyes
It's been so long darling do you really realize
That got the thought of seeing you it scares me through and through
It's been so long darling since I had a kiss from you.

It's been such a long time darling but it won't be long now
It's been so long darling but I've kept every vow
I pray that you'll be waiting as you did in days gone by
It's been such a long time darling please don't blame me if I cry...

"It's Ok"

"It's Ok"


George Jones & Melba Montgomery
It's okay that you are leaving, it's okay if you don't care
It's okay that you are happy long as I don't interfere
It's okay with me sweet baby, I've been fed up from the start
It so fine to find another sucker, it's okay to break his heart
If you leave, I won't grieve
Leave today, it's okay
That's what you want, honky tonk
It's okay , it's okay, it's okay

It's okay you found another, it's okay if he wants you
It's okay to leave tomorrow that just what I hope you do
It's okay if your a cheater, it's okay if cheaters win
Cause it's best to be a loser when your in the shape I'm in
If you leave, I won't grieve
Leave today, it's okay
That's what you want, honky tonk
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay

If you leave, I won't grieve
Leave today, it's okay
That's what you want, honky tonk
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay...

"It's So Sweet"

"It's So Sweet"


It's so sweet to love you darling
Love we thought we'd never find
All the happiness you give me
Just to know your love is mine.

Love is such a happy feeling
One can feel love through and through
When together there is nothing
That can bother me and you.

It's so sweet to love you darling
Love we thought we'd never find
All the happiness you give me
Just to know your love is mine.

Nothing tempts our love to woman
For we love too much to stray
Hold my hand if you should weaken
Love grows stronger day by day.

It's so sweet to love you darling
Love we thought we'd never find
All the happiness you give me
Just to know your love is mine...

"Jambalaya (On The Bayou)"

"Jambalaya (On The Bayou)"


Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, me oh, my oh
Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh, my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have good fun on the bayou.

Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a file' gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.

Thibodeaux, Fontainbleau, the place is buzzin'
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style, go hog wild, me oh, my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.

Jambalaya, a-crawfish pie and-a file' gumbo
'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou...

"Jesus Saves Today"

"Jesus Saves Today"


Jesus saves today
Jesus saves today
When you feel you've reached the end
And you can't find a friend
Jesus saves today.
Now some people think that Jesus was just a prophet
And if I ended on the cross that's where He died
But I believe He was the true son of our father
Deep in my heart I feel him living inside.
Jesus saves today
Jesus saves today
Deny yourself, pick up the cross
If you know you are lost
'Cause Jesus saves today.
I believe the proof upon the Mount of Olive
For us all to turn from all our sinful ways
And Simon Peter saw Him walkin' upon the water
And I believe He's walking with us still today.
Jesus saves today
Jesus saves today
Deny yourself, pick up your cross
If you know that you are lost
'Cause Jesus saves today.
Now, Jesus saves today
Jesus saves today...

"Jesus, Hold My Hand"

"Jesus, Hold My Hand"


As I travel through this pilgrim land
There is a friend who walks with me
Leads me safely through the sinking sand
It is the Christ at Calvary.

This would be my prayer dear Lord each day
To help me do the best I can
For I need Thy light to guide me day and night
Blessed Jesus hold my hand.

[Chorus:]
Jesus hold my hand
I need thee every hour
Through this pilgrim land
Protect me by thy power.

Hear my feeble plea
O Lord look down on me
When I kneel in prayer I hope to meet you there
Blessed Jesus hold my hand.

[Instrumental]

Let me travel in the light divine
That I may see the blessed way
Keep me that I may be wholly Thine
And sing redemption's song some day

I will be a soldier brave and true
And ever firmly take a stand
As I onward go and daily meet the foe
Blessed Jesus hold my hand.

[Chorus:]
Jesus hold my hand
I need thee every hour
Through this pilgrim land
Protect me by thy power.

Hear my feeble plea.
And O Lord look down on me
When I kneel in prayer I hope to meet you there
Blessed Jesus hold my hand.

When I kneel in prayer I hope to meet you there
Blessed Jesus hold my hand...

"Julianne"

"Julianne"


Julianne was something special with lace and yellow ribbon
And she swore she'd never love a mountain man
How she became a lady is something I'll never understand
For she grew up in a poor old mountain clan.

Julianne said all them mountain men are nuttin' short of rotten
Don't you touch my dress with your old dirty hands
When I decide to love a man he won't be full of whiskey
I'm gonna have his love in every way I can.

Makin' money was a pleasure for her moma and her daddy
And you could do it all at Bill Mountain dan
Well, her daddy took the money while her sister poured the whiskey
Ah, no one ever bought from Julianne.

Julianne said all them mountain men are nuttin' short of rotten
Don't you touch my dress with your old dirty hands
When I decide to love a man he won't be full of whiskey
I'm gonna have his love in every way I can.

Well, late one Friday night Bill mountain dan ran out of whiskey
I road down the mountain and road with Julianne
That's the first time that they sent her but the last time they'll see her
'Cause I ain't lettin' go of Julianne.

Julianne said all them mountain men are nothin' short of rotten
Don't you touch my dress with your old dirty hands
When I decide to love a man he won't be full of whiskey
I'm gonna have his love in every way I can.

Juliann was something special in her lace and yellow ribbon
