"I Told You So"

"I Told You So"


Suppose I called you up tonight
And told you that I love you
And suppose I said I want to come back home
And suppose I cried and said I think I finally learned my lesson
And I'm tired of spending all my time alone
If I told you that I realized you're all I ever wanted
And it's killing me to be so far away
Would you tell my that you love me too
And would we cry together
Or would you simply laugh at me and say...

[Chorus]
I told you so, I told you so
I told you some day you'd come crawling back
And asking me to take you in
I told you so, but you had to go
Now I've found somebody new
And you will never break my heart in two again

If I got down on my knees
And told you I was yours forever
Would you get down on yours too and take my hand
Would we get that old-time feeling
Would we laugh and talk for hours
The way we did when our love first began
Would you tell me that you've missed me too
And that you've been so lonely
And you've waited for the day that I returned
And we'd live and love forever
And that I'm your one and only
Or would you say the tables finally turned
And would you say...

[Chorus]

"I Wish It Would Rain"

"I Wish It Would Rain"


It's the last thing I needed
On a star-filled night
The one who broke my heart
Comin into sight
Walkin hand-in-hand with the one who holds her now
I feel the hurt returning and if only somehow

I wish it would rain
I wish it would rain
Oh, Lord
So she won't see
What she's doing to me
Come on, now, sky
Be a friend to these eyes
And I know that I
Can't hold back the pain
I wish it would rain

It's been too long now
To hurt me so bad
But the love that we shared
Was the best that I've had
And my tear drops will fall when they go walkin by
There's no place to turn
And no place to hide

I wish it would rain
I wish it would rain
Oh, Lord
So she won't see
What she's doing to me
Come on, now, sky
Be a friend to these eyes
And I know that I
Can't hold back the pain
I wish it would rain

I know that I
Can't hold back the pain
I wish it would rain

"I Won't Need You Anymore (Always And Forever)"

"I Won't Need You Anymore (Always And Forever)"


You're my always and forever.
You're the one that hung the moon.
After all these nights together
I still get lost in your perfume.
And if I could write a love song,
Every line would tell the truth.
It would be a warm and soft one
And my heart would say to you

When you see me walk on water,
When the sea don't reach the shore
When the fires of hell freeze over,
I won't need you anymore

Oh, the feelings lay so easy,
Lyin' here the way we are.
No one else could ever hold me
Like the heavens hold the stars.

When you see me walk on water,
When the sea don't reach the shore
When the fires of hell freeze over,

I won't need you anymore
I won't need you anymore

"I'd Surrender All"

"I'd Surrender All"


I wake up to the silence
In a room where I once heard "Good Morning Dear"
I never thought I'd miss the early morning smell
Of hairspray in the air
All the little things I used to take for granted
Now I miss them most of all
Ain't it funny how a woman walking out the door
Can bring a man to crawl

And I'd surrender all
To bring you back to me
Give up everything I own
Get down on my hands and knees
Just to hear the phone ringing down the hall
Oh, If you would only call, I'd surrender all

[Instrumental]

Now I'm staring out the window
Praying every passing car would bring you home
So I could take you in my arms
And give the kind of love
You should have known

And I'd surrender all
To bring you back to me
Give up everything I own
Get down on my hands and knees
Just to hear the phone ringing down the hall
Oh, If you would only call, I'd surrender all
If you would only call, I'd surrender all...

"I'll Be Right Here Loving You"

"I'll Be Right Here Loving You"


Politicians, collections
Unionism, opposition
Activism, communism
Skepticism, new vision, down with the old tradition

Vandalism, terrorism
Amunision, demolision
Darwonism, religion
A lot of people making caastrophoic predictions

But I'll be right here loving you
Come what may I know this much is true
As long as this world's spinning like it's supposed to do
I'll be right here loving you

Computerized, organised
Downsize, enterprise
Idolize, criticize
Demoralize, sympathize, talk sweet and tellin lies

Economics, electronics
Atonic, supersonic
Saving whales, crowed jails
America On-Line, e'mail

But I'll be right here loving you
Come what may I know this much is true
As long as this world's spinning like it's supposed to do
I'll be right here loving you

Ecology, technology
Energy, psycology
Evolution, revolution
Everybody's trying to find a new solution

But I'll be right here loving you
Come what may I know this much is true
As long as this world's spinning like it's supposed to do
I'll be right here loving you

As long as this world's spinning like it's supposed to do
I'll be right here loving you

"I'll Fly Away"

"I'll Fly Away"


Some glad morning when this life is o'er
I'll fly away
To a home on God's celestial shore
I'll fly away

I'll fly away, oh glory
I'll fly away
When I die, hallelujah, by and by
I'll fly away

When the shadows of this life have gone
I'll fly away
Like a bird from prison bars has flown
I'll fly away

I'll fly away, oh glory
I'll fly away
When I die, hallelujah, by and by
I'll fly away

Just a few more weary days and then
I'll fly away
To a land where joy shall never end
I'll fly away

I'll fly away, oh glory
I'll fly away
When I die, hallelujah, by and by
I'll fly away

"I'm Gonna Have A Little Talk With Jesus"
(feat. Take 6)

"I'm Gonna Have A Little Talk With Jesus"
(feat. Take 6)



I'm gonna have a little talk with Jesus
When I get home tonight
Gonna tell him all about my troubles
And I know he'll make them right
Then I'll ask him to forgive me
For the things that I've done wrong
Gonna have a little talk with Jesus
Tonight when I get home

This world can be a struggle
Just livin' day to day
You'll run into the devil
With every step you take
I seen his face a hundred times
As he tried to lead me wrong
He don't understand
That I don't walk this road alone

I'm gonna have a little talk with Jesus
When I get home tonight
Gonna tell him all about my troubles
And I know he'll make them right
Then I'll ask him to forgive me
For the things that I've done wrong
Gonna have a little talk with Jesus
Tonight when I get home

Lord said I could call on him
When ever I feel low
Any time or place I needed him
He would gladly go
My life has not been perfect
No matter how I try
But he's never turned his back on me
And that's the reason why

I'm gonna have a little talk with Jesus
When I get home tonight
Gonna tell him all about my troubles
And I know he'll make them right
Then I'll ask him to forgive me
For the things that I've done wrong
Gonna have a little talk with Jesus
Tonight when I get home

I'm gonna have a little talk with Jesus
When I get home tonight
Gonna tell him all about my troubles
And I know he'll make them right
Then I'll ask him to forgive me
For the things that I've done wrong
Gonna have a little talk with Jesus
Tonight when I get home

I'm Gonna have a little talk with Jesus
Tonight when I get home

"I'm Moving On"
(originally by Hank Snow)

"I'm Moving On"
(originally by Hank Snow)



That big eight-wheeler rollin' down the track
Means your true-lovin' daddy ain't comin' back
'Cause I'm movin' on I'll soon be gone
You were flyin' too high for my little old sky
So I'm movin' on

That big loud whistle as it blew and blew
Said hello to the southland we're comin' to you
And we're movin' on oh hear my song
You had the laugh on me so I set you free
And I'm movin' on

Mister fireman won't you please listen to me
'Cause I got a pretty mama in Tennessee
Keep movin' me on keep rollin' on
So shovel the coal let this rattler roll
And keep movin' me on

Mister Engineer take that throttle in hand
This rattler's the fastest in the southern land
To deep movin' me on keep rollin' on
You gonna ease my mind put me there on time
And keep rollin' on

I've told you baby from time to time
But you just wouldn't listen or pay me no mind
Now I'm movin' on I'm rollin' on
You've broken your vow and it's all over now
So I'm movin' on

You've switched your engine now I ain't got time
For a triflin' woman on my mainline
Cause I'm movin on you done your daddy wrong
I warned you twice now you can settle the price
'Cause I'm movin on

But someday baby when you've had your play
You're gonna want your daddy but your daddy will say
Keep movin' on you stayed away too long
I'm through with you too bad you're blue
Keep movin' on

"I'm Ready"

"I'm Ready"


All our days are numbered
Some live on borrowed time
But life is what you make it
Thank God I was so inclined
To accept my Lord and Savior
When the good news sunk in
He paid a heavenly price
By giving His life
And I can't wait to go home to Him

I'm ready to go that distance
And God only knows when that might be
But oh, what joy waits up yonder
Once this old world sets me free

When there's no tomorrow
And glory has come down
Those without Jesus
Are lost and never to be found
So please listen when I'm talking
I'm just saying what needs to be said
Make plans while your still living
It's too late when your dead

I'm ready to go that distance
And God only knows when that might be
But oh, what joy waits up yonder
Once this old world sets me free

Oh, once this old world sets me free

"I'm Still Here, You're Still Gone"

"I'm Still Here, You're Still Gone"


The sun comes up, you're still gone
The world goes round, and life goes on
But life is short, and love is long
And when the sun goes doen, you're still gone

Now ain't it strange, how we make things right
We think things change, overnight
But then the sun comes up, and the night moves on
And I'm still here, you're still gone

I guess I missed the point
I thought I was doin' right
I'd get up early in the mornin'
And work into the night
I was always makin' money
I shoulda' been makin' love
Now the man I am today knows
That money ain't enough

But if I had the chance, to give one more thing
It wouldn't be a rose or a diamond ring
'Cause you showed me, where I went wrong
'Cause I'm still here, and you're still gone

Hey, I guess I missed the point
I thought I was doin' right
I'd get up early in the mornin'
And work into the night
I was always makin' money
I shoulda' been makin' love
Now the man I am today knows
That money ain't enough

The sun comes up, and you're still gone
The world goes round, and life goes on
And you showed me, where I went wrong
'Cause I'm still here, you're still gone
Yes, I'm still here, and you're still gone...
