"One More Love Song"

"One More Love Song"


Gonna sing you one more love song
While I'm feeling this way
Where your mind sometimes protect you
But your heart won't do the same
So I'm down on my knees
Put my problem in God's hand
Give me the strength to carry on
And heart to understand
I'll love you forever till the end of all time
Past all infinity, babe I'm dying
To love you forever, oh, say that your mine
Sweet Holy Trinity at the end of a line
Well, baby, I'm trying
I'm trying to understand
Well, I'm trying to stand back far enough
To see the master plan
Gonna say it one more time
Then I guess I'll just let it stand
For the least that I can say
Is Heaven is in your hand
I'll love you forever till the end of all time
Past all infinity, babe I'm dying
To love you forever, just say that your mine
Sweet Holy Trinity at the end of a line
Well, baby, I'm trying
Trying to understand
Trying to stand back far enough
To see the master plan
Gonna say it one more time, then I guess
Then I guess I'll just let it stand
But the least that I can say
Is Heaven is in your hand
I'll love you forever till the end of all time
Past all infinity, oh, baby I'm dying
To love you forever, just say that your mine
Sweet Holy Trinity at the end of a line
Sweet Holy Trinity at the end of a line

"Out In The Woods"

"Out In The Woods"


Well I'm going down, Going down a hard road
Just don't know, don't know where I've been
But I think I've been walking, I'm walking round in circles
Can't even find a friend
Woah, my love, my love she's not waiting
Think I might've been gone, I've been gone too long
People make me crazy
I can hardly sing my song
Hustlers stand around me,
I'm lost and all alone
Can't tell the bad from the good
I'm lost ins the woods, I'm lost in the woods
Big city gamblers, gamblers take my money
Yes it gets to be useless, yes it's useless to me
And I think I'm lost, when I'm lost inside this jungle
Can't see the forest for the tress
Well pretty little woman come and get me
Try me, try me one more time
Yes and your sweet, your sweet understanding
Cant' fix this broken heart of mine
The vultures fly around, come and take me home
Can't tell the bad from the good
I'm out in the woods, I'm lost in the woods
I'm a man gone crazy in the woods
I'm wandering around the bush

"Over The Rainbow"

"Over The Rainbow"


Somewhere over the rainbow
Up in the sky
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why, didn't know why, can I

Birds fly over the rainbow
Way up in the sky, oh, tell me why
Of all the little blue birds flying over the rainbow
Why, didn't know why, can I

But someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up with the clouds are far behind me, hey
Well, troubles build like lemon drops
Way above the chimney tops
That's where you find me

Somewhere over the rainbow
Up in the sky, well, tell me why
Of all the little blue birds flying over the rainbow
Why, didn't know why, tell me why, didn't know why
Why, didn't know why, can I

"Pisces Apple Lady"

"Pisces Apple Lady"


Get off your bottle
Go down and see a friend
He'll know what to do, lordy
When you tell him how bad it's been
He said you oughta get away
To the English countryside
This cryin' won't help you now boy
Why don't you look how many tears you've cried

When I got down to Chelsea
I had no expectations
Oh, But to get away from the delta girl
And the painful situation
But I hardly had the time
Oh, to laugh and look around
And I found my heart was a-goin' again
Like a-English leaps and bounds (yeah)

And she's a Pisces apple lady
When she speaks softly
She screams,
(she really got herself together) whoa-whoa (oh-oh)
And she's a Pisces apple lady
Took me by surprise
And I fell into a hundred pieces
I said a-right before her eyes

Now were together
All the way to L.A.
I know she that loves me
'Cause she can brighten up a smoggy day
If I believed in marriage
Oh, I'd take her for my wife
And move on down into high gear baby
For the rest of my natural life

And she's a Pisces apple lady
When she speaks softly
She screams,
(she really got herself together) yes she does (oh-oh)
And she's a Pisces apple lady
Took me by surprise
And I fell into a hundred pieces
I said a-right before her eyes

"Prince Of Peace"

"Prince Of Peace"


Try and judge me only by my time and changes
And not mistaken words, for I say many
Listen only to my song and watch my eyes
There's not much time to spill, there's hardly any
Well, look at all the children living in the streets
And they're looking, not afraid to touch each other
They're not afraid to be themselves or someone else
Or choose their friends with love and not by colour
Never treat a brother like a passing stranger
Honey, won't you always try to keep the love light burning
Sing a song of love and open up your heart
For you might be the prince of peace returning
Yeah, you might be the prince of peace returning
Oh, the love the blind and wounded as that you would yourself
And the businessmen in cells collecting pennies
Judge their wealth by coins that they give away
And not the ones that they keep for themselves for spending
Oh, never be impatient with the ones who love you
It might be yourself that you're burning
Sing a song of love and open up your heart
For you might be the prince of peace returning
Never treat a brother like a passing stranger
Honey, won't you always try to keep the love light burning
Sing a song of love and open up your heart
For you might be the prince of peace returning
For you might be the prince of peace returning
Oh, if I pay me, if I pay you
If I pray to your Jesus then you gonna tell us what you're about to do?
What if I pay me and I might pay you
Who's got the money? Who's got the money?
Who's got the money for, sing the song

I'm up in Oakland on a Saturday night
Lord, I said I just didn't feel right
Goodnight ladies all around
But the right one hadn't found me such a bad night

(Queen of the roller derby)

Now Queenie's a lady, she's quite a child
Oh, she'll make you feel fine
Remember the when a trucker from Dallas
Was callous to Queenie with his rude side

Now he can't deny, that he gotten much more than he bargained for
Queenie's right cross run him to the floor
Now he knows better than to mess

With the queen of the roller derby
(Queen of the roller derby)
The queen of the roller derby
(Queen of the roller derby)

Oh, as fast as a bullet she can jam all night
Makes a full grown wonder bull die with fright
When we get home alone in love
She murmurs like a sweet moaning dove, ooh

Oh, such a lady, she's quite a child
She'll make me feel good in this heart of mine
She's my love, she's a lady

She's the queen of the roller derby
(Queen of the roller derby)
Ah, the queen of the roller derby
(Queen of the roller derby)

"Ridin' Down The Canyon"
(with Willie Nelson)

"Ridin' Down The Canyon"
(with Willie Nelson)



When evening chores are over at our rach house on the plains
And all I've got to do is lay around
I saddle up my pony and ride off down the trail
To watch the desert sun go down
Ridin' down the canyon just to watch the sun go down
A picture that no artis ever could paint
White faced cattlow lowin' on the mountain trail
I hear a coyote whinin' for its mate
Cactus plants are bloomin' sagebrush everywhere
Granite spoires are standing all around
I tell you folks it's heaven to be ridin' down the trail
To watch the desert sun go down
Cactus plants are bloomin'...
To watch the desert sun go down

"Roll Away The Stone"

"Roll Away The Stone"


Well it's such a strange world that I'm living in
She was my woman and she was my friend
But I was wrong again.
Such a strange changes that you put me through
But like a fool I fell in love with you
What can this poor boy do?

Roll away the stone
Don't leave me here alone
Resurrect me and protect me
Don't leave me laying here
What will they do in two thousand years?

It's such a strange time that we're passing through
I thought you'd tell me when your time was due
I guess you thought I knew
Strange way to keep avoiding me
Why did you lie how could I help but be
Oh won't you help me be?

"Roll In My Sweet Baby's Arms"

"Roll In My Sweet Baby's Arms"


Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
I ain't gonna work on the railroad I ain't gonna work on the farm
I'll lay around the shack till the mail train comes back
I'm rollin' in my sweet baby's arms
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms...
Now where was you last Friday night while I was lyin' in jail
Walkin' the streets with another man you wouldn't even go my bail
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms...
I know your parent don't like me they drove me away from your door
And my life's too bluer never to wearing more
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms...
Rollin' in my sweet baby's arms...
