"Glorybound"

"Glorybound"



Come on all you brothers, come on one and all
Come on get together, it's time to meet the call
You'll see lots of banners, down at City Hall
Lots of pretty girls to make a man feel six foot tall

You can bring your napsack, bring your carbine too
It ain't gonna take too long, 'cause there ain't much to do
Hey, we've just got to show those Yanks, we mean what we say
They can't tell us what to do, we'll chase them all away

Oh, catch the train a' runnin', runnin' right through town
Headed straight for glory - glorybound
Catch the train a' runnin', runnin' right through town glorybound

We're all gonna meet them, out at Cutter's Ridge
Right there in the clearing, just beyond the bridge
You'll see all the ladies with their parasols
Cheering for their favorites, they'll be waving to us all

Oh, catch the train a' runnin', runnin' right through town
Headed straight for glory - glorybound
You better catch the train a'runnin', runnin' right through town

"Go And Say Goodbye"

"Go And Say Goodbye"



You asked me to read this letter
That you wrote the night before
And you really should now better
'Cause she's worth a whole lot more, brother

You know you can't run away and hide
Is it you don't want to see her cry
Is that why you won't go and say goodbye

Then you said the fault was yours
And you really were to blame
'Twas as if to close the door
And to hide away in shame brother

You know you can't run away and hide
Is it you don't want to see her cry
Is that why you won't go and say goodbye

Yes and why tell me why
Can't you see that it's not right
It's a lie it's a lie
Don't hide your sorrow in the night brother

"Gonna Meet My Maker"

"Gonna Meet My Maker"



Gonna meet my Maker
That's when my time is here
Gonna meet my Maker
And I won't shed a tear
Gonna see God and then be born again.

Gonna meet my Maker
Then ask the question why
Why some are left alone?
And why the innocent die?

Never been to Heaven but I don't care
I know, I know one day I'm going there
Gonna meet my Maker.

Gonna meet my Maker
Say 'Tell me loud and clear'
'Please tell me Maker'
'Where do we go from here?'

If I have to be born again
Only when there's peace on earth,
please wait till then
Gonna meet my Maker.

"Good Feelin' To Know"

"Good Feelin' To Know"



When I need good lovin?
I always come home to you
You free my lifetime of the blues

Yes, I got that old time feelin?
Burnin? deep inside my soul
And I am yours and baby, I?m home

And it?s a good feelin? to know
It?s such a good feelin' to know
Oh, it?s a good feelin? to know
Somebody loves you

Colorado mountains
I can see your distant sky
You?re bringin? a tear of joy to my eyes

Yes, it?s a good feelin?
It?s such a good feelin' to know
Oh, it?s a good feelin?
Somebody loves you

When I need good lovin?

You free my lifetime of the blues

Yes, I got that old time feelin?
Burnin? deep inside my soul
And I am yours, baby, I?m home

Good feeling
Good feeling

"Hard Country"

"Hard Country"



There goes Bobby Ray, Junior
Pullin’ out of town
Got his family in a U-Haul
They’re all sunbelt bound
Another farm abandoned
They gave the land back to the wind
The price of fuel went up, corn went down
And I don’t think we’ll be seeing Bobby again

It’s a hard country
Last year the fields were all too wet to plow
Hard country
And this year they say that it looks like a drought
But I can’t leave
My roots go deep in this hard country

I’ve got a friend got a job in the city
Installing burglar alarms
He says he’s makin’ real good money
But I can tell he misses the farm
He calls to ask how the crops are doin’
I say we could use some rain
Says his life is movin’ kinda fast
And I tell him out here things are always the same

Well the snow piles up in the winter
And the bugs come out in June
But somehow, it’s all worth it
When I see that harvest moon

"Hard Luck"

"Hard Luck"



Here it comes, another heartache
Bringing me pain and misery
It's peekin' 'round the bend sayin'
"Hey my friend, sit down, and keep me company."
Always seems to me that
I make the biggest fool and tragedy.
Tellin' you this time I'm gonna stay in line,
No one's a-gonna bother me.
Think about the times, if you can, and I'll let you
Remember the rhymes that we talked when we were new.
I can recall the days when I'd wake up
To find you beside me,
But you could have stayed
'Stead of takin' off that way..

Here it comes, another heartache
Bringing me pain and misery
It's peekin' 'round the bend sayin'
"Hey my friend, sit down, and keep me company."
Always seems to me that
I make the biggest fool and tragedy.
Tellin' you this time I'm gonna stay in line,
No one's a-gonna bother me.

And I can't ever change it
Hard luck is all to blame.
If I try to rearrange it,
I wished I could, it ain't no good
Why do things always turn out just the same?

"Hear That Music"

"Hear That Music"



I don't know why the sun don't shine
Just listen to my music all the time
And I don't know why people pass me by
Just to sitting here singing my song
And I don't know why people can't be free
All you gotta do is to be like me
Get yourself a guitar and pick out a song
Baby it won't be long

Hear that music
That good old country song
It makes you walk, makes you talk,
Makes you jump on the floor
Then you got to come back for more
Hear that music
You know it can't be wrong
If you want to know the way to go
Come help me while I sing my song

Everybody saying that trouble's got you down
But tell me something don't you want to smile upon the town
Look in the sky there's no reason why
You can't help me with my song
Oh it's really easy remember what I said
Listen to the music, let it take your head
You better run or you miss the fun
Baby it won't be long, it won't be long

Hear that music
That good old country song
It makes you walk, makes you talk
Makes you jump on the floor
Then you got to come back for me
Hear that music
You know it can't be wrong
If you wanna know the way to go
Come help me while I sing my song

It's really easy remember what I said
Listen to the music let it take your head
You better run or you miss the fun
Baby it won't be long

Hear that music
Hear that music
Well if you wanna know the way to go
Come help me while I sing my song
Well if you wanna know the way to go
Come help me while I sing my song

"Heart Of The Night"

"Heart Of The Night"



In the heart of the night
In the cool southern rain
There's a full moon in sight
Shining down on the Pontchartrain

And the river she rises
Just like she used to do
She's so full of surprises
She reminds me of you
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
Oh, whoa, down in New Orleans

There's a night bird singing
Right on through till the dawn
And the streets are still ringing
With people carrying on

It's been so long waiting
Just to be here again
Anticipating
All the time I could spend
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night

And I trust in your love never falling down
I trust in your love
Just like I do in this town
Whoa, never falling down
Whoa, never falling down

In the heart of the night
In the cool fallin' rain
There's a full moon in sight
Shining down on the Pontchartrain

And the river she rises
Just like she used to do
She's so full of surprises
Oh, momma, she reminds me of you
Right here, in the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
Down in New Orleans

And I'm so glad to be back in New Orleans
Please don't wake me, don't shake me
If it's only, if it's only just a dream
It's the only place I can face that feels so right
Below that Dixie moon and loving you
In the heart of the night

"Here Comes That Girl Again"

"Here Comes That Girl Again"


Here comes that girl again, sweet as the Southern wind
Dressed in her very best, old lace and calico and

[Chorus:]
It looks like love's got a hold on me
It looks like love, ooh, got a hold on me

Ribbons of sunlight fall all through her golden hair
Like some uncommon child, I have to stop and stare

[Chorus x2]

"Here We Go Again"

"Here We Go Again"



When I last saw you I couldn't find a reason why
I felt kind o' blue watching you
Hello my sweet friend I've come to sing a lullaby
Can I make amends or should I try

Ooo - Mama can't you see it's not the same
Lookin' back behind A-can't start anew
But then here we go again

Searching back to you I've finally come to realize
When we were as two - tellin' lies
Livin' so afraid we never read between the lines
It's different from today - the sun, it shines

When I first saw you I knew I couldn't change my mind
Twisted point of view - another kind
But love is what we choose and not for us to reason why
Sometimes love we lose and never try

Ooh - Could it really be it's not the same
Lookin' back behind is such a silly game
But here we go again
