"One More Time"

"One More Time"


Mistakes I know I've made them and you don't know how much I hate them
But that's me darlin' and I don't guess ol' Jerry will ever change
And I don't mean to hurt you heaven knows I hate to hurt you
But here I am to ask forgiveness one more time
One more time I'll ask you to forgive me one more time I'll come crawling back to you
All I ask is a chance to show how much I love you so
Will you please take me back one more time

Oh one more time I'm gonna tell you that I'm sorry
But this time darlin' I'll go down on my bended knee
And I'll cry and beg forgiveness please won't give me your forgiveness
Will you please take me back one more time
Won't you please take me back just one more time

"Over The Rainbow"

"Over The Rainbow"


Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I've heard of once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream,
Really do come true.

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
High above the chimney tops,
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I've heard of once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream,
Really do come true.

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops,
High above the chimney tops,
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

"Pee Wee's Place"

"Pee Wee's Place"


There's a jumpin' little joint out in West Nashville
If the barbecue don't get you where the music will
It's called Pee Wee's Place and they're open from nine till dawn
If you drop by, brother, there's some shakin' goin' on

We get all kinds of people as the night goes on
Rednecks and the hippies, both are right at home
Politicians, truck drivers, factory workers too
You can be a cop out here don't matter what you do

We gotta four piece band and we play real loud country soul
While rockin' and we be so proud
Let me play and sing, do what we want to do
Oh, the crowd all love us when we're rockin' boogie woogie too
Let me rock it for you now

Hey, go, hey, hey, in other words by the bar
And drink corn liquor from an old fruit jar
That's what it's all about whip this little yo yo
Well, he just got out of jail, the boy's movin' kind of slow
Blow your harp, boy

Pee Wee's place raising hell, he thinks the band is too loud
He's a bitchin' too much 'cause he's drawing a crowd
Pulling a lot of good music and a whole lot of shaking going on
Out at Pee Wee's Place where you can get it all night long
Play your guitar, son

Oh, let it roll, let it roll, all night long
Let it roll, let it roll, all night long
Let it roll, let it roll, all night long
Give it to me, give it to me all night long
Come on now give it to me all night long

Boogie Woogie going to get you and if that ain't good enough
Jerry Lee's going to show you how to get real tough
Out at Pee Wee's Place, we're hangin' in all night long
Hey, give it to me, baby, there's some sha-sha-shaking going on
Give it to me now, go

"Pen And Paper"

"Pen And Paper"


(Pen and paper won't you tell me what to write)

Pen, paper can't you tell me what to write
I don't know I can't think I'd been here half a night
I don't want to hurt her but I love somebody new
Pen, paper help me tell her we're through

Shall I say, dear used to be forget me
Shall I say dear broken heart we'll have to part
When she reads about my new love will she cry
Pen (pen) paper (paper) is that a way to say goodbye

Now I've just wrong another hour on the floor
I'll start again yes I trouble write some more
Shall I find sincerely yours
Pen (pen) paper (paper)

paper, I came

"Pink Cadillac"
(originally by Bruce Springsteen)



You may think I'm foolish for the foolish things I do
You may wonder how come I love you when you get on my nerves like you do
Well, baby, you know you bug me, ain't no secret 'bout that
Well, come on over here and hug me, baby, I'll show you where it's at
Well, honey, it ain't your money, baby, I got plenty of that
I love you for your pink Cadillac, crushed velvet seats
Riding in the back, oozing down the street
Waving to the girls, feeling out of sight
Spending all my money on a Saturday night
Honey, I just wonder what you do there in the back of your pink Cadillac
Pink Cadillac

Way back in the Bible, temptation always comes along
There's always somebody tempting somebody into doing something they know is wrong
Well, they tempt you, man, with silver, and they tempt you, sir, with gold
And they tempt you with the pleasures the flesh does surely hold
They say Eve tempted Adam with an apple but, man, I ain't going for that
I'm going for the pink Cadillac, crushed velvet seats
Riding in the back, oozing down the street
Waving to the girls, feeling out of sight
Spending all my money on a Saturday night
Honey, I just wonder what it feels like in the back of your pink Cadillac
Pink Cadillac

Yeah, some folks say it's a little too big and uses too much gas
Some folks say it's too old, it goes just a little too fast
But my love is bigger than a Honda, it's bigger than a Subaru
Hey man, there's only one thing and there's one car that will do
Anyway we don't have to drive it, we can park it out in back
Have a party in your pink Cadillac, crushed velvet seats
Riding in the back, oozing down the street
Waving to the girls, feeling out of sight
Spending all my money on a Saturday night
Honey I just wonder what it feels like in the back of your pink Cadillac
Pink Cadillac

"Play Me A Song I Can Cry To"

"Play Me A Song I Can Cry To"


I sat in with a band down in Dallas
I'd been introduced as a guest
When a little white haired man approached the bandstand
Said I wonder if you'd play one last request

Oh please play me a song I can cry to
Sad songs are music to my ears
Play me a song I can cry to
Play me a song that sounds like tears

I stood by as the band started playing
And I didn't even try to play along
Aw my eyes had followed him back to the corner
Where he sat down at a table all alone
And a smile slowly came across his tear drops
And I watched as he slowly bowed his head
Just before he left this world for one much better
I remember the little lonely man had said

Oh please play me a song I can cry to
Sad songs are music to my ears
Play me a song I can cry to
Play me a song that sounds like tears
Play me a song that sounds like tears

"Please Don't Talk About Me When I'm Gone"

"Please Don't Talk About Me When I'm Gone"


Please don't talk about me when I'm gone,
Oh, honey though our friendship ceases, from now on;
And, listen, if you can't say anything real nice,
It's better not to talk at all, is my advice.
We're parting, you go your way I'll go mine, it's best that we do;
Here's a kiss!
I hope that this brings lots of luck to you.
Makes no difference how I carry on,
Remember, please don't talk about me when I'm gone.

"Please Release Me"
(with Gillian Welch)



Please release me let me go
For I don't love you anymore
To waste our lives would be a sin
Release me and let me love again

I have found a new love dear
And I will always want her near
Her lips are warm while yours are cold
Release me my darling let me go

For I don't love you anymore
So release me and let me love again

Please release me can't you see
You'd be a fool to cling to me
To live a lie would bring us pain
So release me and let me love again

"Pledging My Love"


Forever my darling my love will be true
Always and forever, God, I'll love only you
O promise me darlin' your love in return
Make this fire in my soul forever burn

Ohh, heart's at your command dear, keep love and to hold
Making you happy is my desire, keeping you is my goal
I'll forever love you for the rest of my days
I'll never part from you and your loving ways

My heart's at your command dear, keep love and to hold
To make you happy is my desire, keeping you is my goal
I'll forever love you, rest of my days
I'll never part from you and your loving ways

"Promised Land (2014)"
(feat. Doyle Bramhall II)
(originally by Chuck Berry)



I left my home in Norfolk Virginia,
California on my mind.
Straddled that Greyhound, rode him past Raleigh,
On across Caroline.

Stopped in Charlotte and bypassed Rock Hill,
And we never was a minute late.
We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown,
Rollin' 'cross the Georgia state.

We had motor trouble it turned into a struggle,
Half way 'cross Alabam,
And that 'hound broke down and left us all stranded
In downtown Birmingham.

Straight off, I bought me a through train ticket,
Ridin' cross Mississippi clean
And I was on that midnight flier out of Birmingham
Smoking into New Orleans.

Somebody help me get out of Louisiana
Just help me get to Houston town.
There's people there who care a little 'bout me
And they won't let the poor boy down.

Sure as you're born, they bought me a silk suit,
Put luggage in my hands,
And I woke up high over Albuquerque
On a jet to the promised land.

Workin' on a T-bone steak a la carte
Flying over to the Golden State,
The pilot told me in thirteen minutes
We'd be headin' in the terminal gate.

Swing low sweet chariot, come down easy
Taxi to the terminal zone,
Cut your engines, cool your wings,
And let me make it to the telephone.

Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia,
Tidewater four ten O nine
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'
And the poor boy's on the line.
