"If Teardrops Were Pennies"

"If Teardrops Were Pennies"


If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold
I'd have all the treasures my pockets would hold
I'd be oh so wealthy with treasures untold
If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold

An acre of diamonds I'd offered to you a solid gold mansion an airplane or two
This world would be yours to have and to hold
If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold
[ guitar - steel ]
If teardrops were pennies...

"If We Put Our Heads Together"

"If We Put Our Heads Together"



When I'm cryin', just cryin' over what we've become
That's not but cry though I look there on the demage that we've done
We can start here not parted for there's hope for me and you
If we put our heads together our hearts will tell us what to do.

If we put our heads together our hearts will tell us what to do
My heart tells me to forget her and I'll forget him too
I'll take a step in your direction and toward you I'll take two
If we put our heads together our hearts will tell us what to do.

It's not rain it's just pain runnin' down my face
I feel certain that's a hurtin' won't leave any trace
We'll erase it just replace it with a love we once knew
If we put our heads together our hearts will tell us what to do.

If we put our heads together our hearts will tell us what to do
My heart tells me to forget her and I'll forget him too
I'll take a step in your direction and toward you I'll take two
If we put our heads together our hearts will tell us what to do...

"If You Love Me (Let Me Know)"

"If You Love Me (Let Me Know)"


You came when I was happy in your sunshine
I grew to love you more each passing day
Before too long I built my world around you
And I prayed you'd love enough of me to stay
If you love me let me know if you don't then let me go
I can't take another minute of the day without you in it
If you love me let it be if you don't then set me free
Take the chains away that keep me loving you
[ steel ]
The arms that open wide to hold me closer
The hands that run their fingers through my hair
The smile that says hello it's good to see you
Anytime I turn around to find you there
It's this and so much more that makes me love you
What else can I do to make you see
You know you have whatever's mine to give you
But a love affair for one can never be
If you love me let me know...
[ steel ]
Take the chains away that keep me loving you

"If You Miss Heaven (You'll Miss It All)"

"If You Miss Heaven (You'll Miss It All)"


If you're tired of sinnin' take your Saviour's hand
There's a mansion worth winnin' in the great Promised Land
Many debtors are grinnin' don't you slip and fall if you miss heaven you'll miss it all
If you miss heaven you'll miss it all for me to reach heaven I'd gladly crawl
The smallest and weakest who love him or toss if you miss heaven you'll miss it all
[ steel ]
Our loving Saviour gave us a sake of birth
And his salvation frees us from the sorrows of earth
Forever with Jesus may life seem so small if you miss heaven you'll miss it all
If you miss heaven...

"If You Touch Me"

"If You Touch Me"



Well, she packed my bags and kicked me out
When we were havin' bad times
Looking back I can see it was over nothin'
Since then there's been too much
Red wine and women messin' up my mind.
But nothin' can compare with baby's lovin'.

At two o'clock this mornin' I made up my mind
I'm gonna go back home to my sweet baby
I'm lookin' though the window at the city for the last time
Lord knows this life it'll drive me crazy.

Well, I walked out on the highway
'Caught a semi headed home
I hope she'll take me back, oh Lord, I'm prayin'
Now, I'm standin' at the front door hopin' I'll find her all alone
Then I heard her sweet voice sayin'.

And she said if you touch me you've got to love me
And if you love me you'll have to stay with me forever
And I'll forgive you and love will be like it should be
So if you touch me you've got to love me.
If you touch me you've got to love me...

"If You Were Mine To Lose"

"If You Were Mine To Lose"


If you were mine to lose I'd gladly let you go
Cause that would mean you once belonged to me
I'd gladly face the heartache of losin' you some day
Cause then at least I'd have a memory
Through all the years I've known you you've never noticed me
Just a friend that's all I've been to you
I'd gladly let you break my heart for just one memory
Just to know that you were mine to lose
If I could only hold you just one time for one short moment heaven would be mine
If you were mine to lose I'd gladly let you go just to know that you were mine to lose
[ piano ]
If I could only hold you...

"If You're Not Gone Too Long"

"If You're Not Gone Too Long"


I'm gonna wipe these teardrops from my eyes there ain't no use for me to cry
And there's some things I think I need to say
I'll think about you every day every day while you're away
I'll be true to you honey while you're gone if you're not gone too long
But if you're gone for a year or two it may be too long for me to be true
I might find somebody else cause I get lonesome by myself
I'll be the truest love you've known and for a while I'll stay at home
I'll be true to you honey while you're gone if you're not gone too long
[ guitar - steel ]
Tomorrow you'll be gone I know so love me now before you go
We don't know what's farther down the road
There may be a detour sign to upset plans of yours and mine
I'll be true to you honey while you're gone if you're not gone too long
But if you're gone for a year or two...
Oh yeah if you're not gone too long

"In The Garden"

"In The Garden"


I come to the garden alone while the dew is still on the roses
And the voice I hear falling on my ear the son of God discloses
And he walks with me and he talks with me and he tells me I am his own
And the joy we share as we tarry there none other has ever known
[ guitar ]
He speaks and the sound of his voice is so sweet that the birds hush their singing
And the melody that he gave to me within my heart is ringing
And he walks with me...

"In The Sweet By And By"

"In The Sweet By And By"


In the sweet by and by we shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by we shall meet on that beautiful shore

There's a land that is fairer than day and by faith we can see it apart
For the father waits over the way to prepare us a dwelling place there
In the sweet by and by...
[ guitar ]
To a wonderful father above we shall offer our tribute of praise
For the glory as gift of his love and the blessings that hallow our days
In the sweet by and by...

"Indian Lake"

"Indian Lake"


Indian Lake is a scene you should make with your little one
Keep it in mind if you're lookin' to find a place in the summer sun
Swim in the cove have a snack in the grove or you can rent a canoe
At Indian Lake you'll be able to make the way like the Indians do

You take a bus marked Lakewood Drive
And you keep on ridin' till you're out of the city
Where the air is fine with the sweet smellin' pines and the country side's pretty
And you'll see daffodils peepin' over the hills or a honey lovin' mama bear
Just take a left at the bridge go down to Quaker town Ridge
And in a minute you're there
Indian Lake is a scene you should make...
[ steel ]
Indian Lake is a scene you should make...
And you'll see daffodils peepin' over the hills...
Indian Lake is a scene you should make...
