"Kentucky Means Paradise"

"Kentucky Means Paradise"


You take a K and a E N and a T U and a C K Y
And that spells KENTUCKY and it means paradise
You take a chicken and you kill it and you put it in the skillet
And you fry up a golden brown
That's southern cookin' and that's mighty nice
It don't cover lot when you look on a map
But I once studied geography when I sat in my mama's lap
You take a K and a E N and a T U and a C K Y
And that spells KENTUCKY and it means paradise

[Dobro]

It don't cover lot...

[Banjo]

It don't cover lot...
I said Kentucky and it means paradise

"Lean On Me"

"Lean On Me"


Y'know, sometimes in our lives
We all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's
Always tomorrow

Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
Oh, for, for it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

So, please, swallow your pride
If I have things
You need to borrow
Y'know, no, no one can fill
Those of your needs
That you won't let show

You just call on me, brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
Well, I just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it, it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

You just call on me, brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
Well, I just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Well, if there is a load
You have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right, I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just will call me

If you need a friend

Oh, call me

I'll be there

Call me, yeah

"Less Of Me"

"Less Of Me"


Let me be a little kinder let me be a little blinder
To the faults of those about me let me praise a little more
Let me be when I am weary just a little bit more cheery
Think a little more of others and a little less of me mhmm mhmm

Let me be a little braver when temptation bits me waver
Let me strive a little harder to be all that I should be
Let me be a little meeker with the brother that is weaker
Let me think more of my neighbor and a little less of me mhmm mhmm

Let me be when I am weary just a little bit more cheery
Let me serve a little better those that I am striving for
Let me be a little meeker with the brother that is weaker
Think a little more of others and a little less of me mhmm mhmm

"Let It Be Me"

"Let It Be Me"


I bless the day I found you
I want to stay around you
And so I beg you
Let it be me

Don't take this heaven from one
If you must cling to someone
Now and forever
Let it be me

Each time we meet, love
I find complete love
Without your sweet, sweet love
What would life be?

So never leave me lonely
Tell me you'll love me only
And that you'll always
Let it be me

Each time we meet, love
I find complete love
Without your sweet, sweet love
What would life be?

So never leave me lonely
Tell me you'll love me only
And that you'll always
Let it be me

Now and forever
Let it be me

"Long Black Limousine"

"Long Black Limousine"


There's a long line of mourners driving down our little street
Their fancy cars are such a sight to see
They're all of your rich friends who you knew in the city
And now they finally brought you home to me
When you left you told me someday you'd be returnin'
In a fancy car for all the town to see
Now everyone is watching you finally got your dream
You're riding in a long black limousine
The papers told of how you lost your life the party and the fatal crash that night
The race upon the highway the curve you didn't see
And now you're in that long black limousine
Through tear dimmed eyes I watch as you ride by
A chauffer at the wheel dressed up so fine
I'll never love another my heart and all my dreams
Are with you in that long black limousine

"Love Is A Lonesome River"

"Love Is A Lonesome River"


On a street in some big city lives the girl I love so well
She left me for another now there's nothing much to tell
As I try to fit my life in a different mode I find
That love is a lonesome river running through the lonesome mind
I took a plane to back when I was just a child that played
Time sure changed this old town oh it's not the same today
As I try to meet old friends none do I find
Cause love is a lonesome river running through the lonesome mind

[Strings]

There's trees along this river that are overgrown with pines
There's pools along this river where the sun will never shine
As I look into my heart and count my loss I find
That love is a lonesome river running through the lonesome mind
Yes love is a lonesome river running through the lonesome mind

"Love Is Not A Game"

"Love Is Not A Game"


Love is like a warm and tender rain
Splashing on the roof beatin' on the window pane
She was like a soft and gentle breeze
Seemin' so sincere pretty as you please.

Though the time we spent together was so small
I keep wondering if I walked through it all
But the way you held me close and called my name
And the pain I'm feeling now tells me love is not a game.

Every time I looked into her eyes
I couldn't really see what was on her mind
'Cause she's been through this many times before
Never realized I must have been a poor.

Now I believe that love could be just simple true and harmony
Happiness for day and night no one wrong or right
But the way you held me close and called my name
And the pain I'm feeling now tells me love is not a game...

"Love Me As Though There Were No Tomorrow"

"Love Me As Though There Were No Tomorrow"


Love me as though there were no tomorrow take me out of this world tonight
Take me make me forget my sorrow
So when I wake tomorrow I'll know our love was right
Kiss me as though it were now or never teach me all that our heart should know
Just love me as though there were no tomorrow
Oh my darling love me don't ever let me go

[Piano]

Please love me as though there were no tomorrow
Oh my darling love me don't ever let me go

"MacArthur Park"

"MacArthur Park"


Spring was never waiting for us girl it ran one step ahead as we followed in the dance
'Tween the parted pages and were pressed
In love's hot fevered iron like a stripped pair of pants
I recall the yellow cotton dress
Foaming like a wave on the ground around your knees
And birds like tender babies in your hands
And the old man playing checkers by the trees
Mac Arturh Park is melting in the dark all the sweet green ising flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never had that recipe again oh no

There will be another songs for me for I will sing it
There will be another dream for me someone will bring it
I'll drink the wine while it is warm and never let you catch me looking in the sun
But after all the loves of my life after all the loves of my life you'll still be the one
I will take my life into my hands and I will use it
I will win the worship in their eyes and I will lose it
I will have the things that I desire
And my passions flow like rivers through the sky
But after all the loves of my life oh after all the loves of my life
I'll be thinking of you and wondering why
Mac Arturh Park is melting...

"Mansion On The Hill"

"Mansion On The Hill"


Tonight down here in the valley I'm lonesome and oh how I feel
As I sit here alone in my cabin I can see your mansion on the hill
Do you recall when we parted the story to me you revealed
Oh you said you could live without love dear in your loveless mansion on the hill
I've waited all through the years love just to give you a heart true and real
And I know you're alone with your pride dear in your loveless mansion on the hill
