"What Sundown Does To You"

"What Sundown Does To You"


Now lately I've been wonderin' honey why you don't come home
At the end of the day when your work is through
So yesterday when the sun went down the moon rose on your trail
It just dawned on me what sundown does to you
It just dawned on me what sundown does to you
It puts a clear in your eyes somehow I could never do
You wanna lean on the jukebox sip on a cool one
And hang around a place where you just might find one
It dawned on me what sundown does to you
[ guitar - steel ]
Now honey you know sundown falls on everyone
When I say everyone well that includes me to
So tonight when that old moon comes out you can bet I'll be cut out too
It just dawned on me what sundown does to you
It just dawned on me...
Well it dawned on me what sundown does to you

"What's The Bottle Done To My Baby"

"What's The Bottle Done To My Baby"


We used to plan and talk of what we'd do but now you let the bottle talk for you
But I still love the man you used to be oh what's the bottle done to my baby
What's the bottle done to my baby
I've watched your mind go with that beer and whiskey flow
It's awful oh it's awful what a change what's the bottle done to my baby
[ steel ]
Back before the bottle took command I tell the world I loved its biggest man
But you've not gone too proud right out of me
Oh what's the bottle done to my baby
What's the bottle done...

"When Dreams Go Out Of Style"

"When Dreams Go Out Of Style"


Last night I dreamed about you and morning brought no change
I'll spend this whole day crying with that usual thing
Right now I can't remember the last time that I smiled
But I'll stop loving you when dreams go out of style
I know you think I'm crazy you don't feel the way I do
But still I'll keep on hoping that my dreams will come true
My heart won't let me give up my thoughts keep running wild
But I'll stop loving you when dreams go out of style
[ steel ]
It's gotten so here lately I hear you call my name
Each night I wake up dreaming it's drivin' me insane
Friends tell me I'll get better but that will take awhile
I'll still be loving you when dreams go out of style
I'll still be loving you when dreams go out of style

"When I Hear My Children Pray"
(feat. Ernest Ray)

"When I Hear My Children Pray"
(feat. Ernest Ray)



(Someday I'll be strong enough to make that church bells ring
And when my voice grows steady I can help the choir sing
Somehow I can be usefull so put me to the test
I know I can't do very much but Lord I'll do my best)
Last night just at bed time I looked in upon my son
And the picture I saw as I stood there was surely a blessed one
Proudly I watched and listened to all he tried to say
Cause it makes my heart just burst with pride when I hear my children pray
And he said dear Lord I'm just a little boy and I don't know how to pray
But so many of your people has slowly turned away
Well maybe there's something I can do to help in your great plan
I know I can't do very much but I'll do the best I can
Couldn't I light the little candles or maybe sweep the pews
I'll do anything dear Lord just as long as it's for you
Why can I open up the doors or dust your sacred stand
I know I can do something if you'll just hold my hand
Yes proudly I stood and listened to all he tried to say
And it makes my heart just burst with pride when I hear my children pray
(I know I can't do very much but Lord I'll do my best)

"When I Reach The Bottom"

"When I Reach The Bottom"


You want me to come down to your level you know that's pretty low
That looks like I will soon be there cause I don't have very far to go
You turn my feet in your direction and I follow everywhere
So when I reach the bottom you'd better be there
I'm going down the ladder one step at a time
I'm going down the ladder that I'll never climb
You keep a saying come on down like a fool I ask you where
So when I reach the bottom you'd better be there
[ steel ]
The road we're on is a going down the hill and I'm turning where you turn
You're teaching me your way of life and it didn't take me very long to learn
I'll do anything you want me to I've got to where I don't care
But when I reach the bottom you'd better be there
I'm going down the ladder...
So when I reach the bottom you'd better be there

"When I Turn Off My Lights"

"When I Turn Off My Lights"



Let's forget unpleasent memories let them lie there in the past
Make believe here in my arms is where you belong
Yes I need you to love me each night when I'm alone
When I turn off my light your mem'ry turns on
I return the love she gives me till you mem'ry gets so strong
I exist in a house where I don't feel at home
How can love feel so right and still feel so wrong
When I turn off my light your mem'ry turns on
When I turn off my light your mem'ry turns on
Then I turn and reach for you and again find you're gone
But you stay with her she loves you and she's never done you wrong
When I turn off my light your mem'ry turns on
Still when I turn off my light your mem'ry turns on

"When Lonely Hits Your Heart"

"When Lonely Hits Your Heart"


Here I am a doing things I said I'd never do
But that's before my baby said we're through
It was on that tragic day the hurtin' got its start
That's how it is when lonely hits your heart
I've become a fallen girl for the love of a man
The same old thing goes on and on it's more than I can stand
To him it just don't matter but it's tearing me apart
That's how it is when lonely hits your heart
[ guitar - piano ]
I spent my nights a crying while he was running round
My heart was the first place lonely found
I don't think I'll forget him I can't begin to start
That's how it is when lonely hits your heart
I've become a fallen girl...

"When The Tingle Becomes A Chill"

"When The Tingle Becomes A Chill"


Sometimes at night while you're fast asleep
I lie there alone in the darkness and weep
So sorry and sad but that's part of the deal when the tingle becomes a chill
I never wanted to stop loving you I'll swear by the breath in my body that's true
Ah but a woman can't help the way that she feels when the tingle becomes a chill
[ steel - harmonica ]
You're so contented but for me it's all gone
And though I pretend you just don't turn me on
The body performs but the soul has no will when the tingle becomes a chill
I never wanted to stop loving you...

"When They Ring Those Golden Bells"

"When They Ring Those Golden Bells"


There's a land beyond the river that we call the sweet forever
And we only reach that shore by fate you see
Yes I want to see my Jesus shake his hand and hear him greet us
When they ring those golden bells for you and me
Don't you hear the bells a ringing can't you hear the angels singing
This glory hallelujah jubilee
In that far off sweet forever just beyond the shining river
When they ring those golden bells for you and me
[ ac.guitar + banjo ]
When our days have known the number when in death we'll sweetly slumber
When the king commands the spirit to be free
There'll be no more stormy weather we'll live peacefully together
When they ring those golden bells for you and me
Don't you hear the bells a ringing...

"When You Leave My World"

"When You Leave My World"



Just a honey haired girl in a paper doll world
That's what you are
You're only six, believe magic tricks
And wishing on a star

Today I can hold you
Tomorrow who knows what you'll do, ooh ooh
When you leave my world
What will the world do to you?

Will you win the hand of a man
Who will make your life gay
Or love many times only to find
You lose every game that you play

When you learn there's no magic
And dreams are just things that fall through
When you leave my world
What will the world do to you?

She plays in the sand and don't understand
The words I say
Or the fear mommy feels the wrong man will steal
My baby someday

Today I can hold you kiss and console you
Tomorrow who knows what you'll do
When you leave my world
What will the world do to you?

Will you win the hand of a man
Who will make your life gay
Or love many times only to find
You lose every game that you play

When you learn there's no magic
And dreams are just things that fall through
When you leave my world
What will the world do to you?
