"Blood Red And Goin' Down"

"Blood Red And Goin' Down"


[Chorus:]
That Georgia Sun was blood red and goin' down.
That Georgie Sun was blood red and goin' down.

Daddy said "now come on girl we're headed down the road to Augusta"
And faintly through his clenched teeth he called momma's name
And then he cussed her
He said "girl you're young
But some dude has come along and stole your mother
But you can't steal no will and mind
'Cause momma's always lookin' for a lover"

[Chorus]

With dusty tear drops on his face
My daddy cried in big steps he was takin'
Halfway running to keep up
My shorter legs, were so tired and shakin'
"Where did I go wrong girl
And why would she leave us both this way?"
At times like these, a child of ten never knows exactly what to say

[Chorus]

We searched in every bar room and honky tonk as well
And finally daddy found them
And Lord, you know the rest is hard to tell
He sent me out to wait
But scared, I looked back through the door
And daddy left them both soaking up the sawdust on the floor.

[Chorus 2x]

"Borrowed Wings"

"Borrowed Wings"


The saddest song, I've ever heard
Was on the radio last night
I turned it up, you turned it off
Then we lay down, and turned out the light

I thought I'd never go to sleep
In that cold and quiet bed
Thinkin' back on all we've lost
Or is it all we never had

We've flown too high on borrowed wings
Touched the sky, or so it seemed
Guess fools can fall, for anything
We've flown too high on borrowed wings

It's hard to say where we went wrong
There was a time it felt so real
Now the silence in this room
And your empty eyes are all I feel

Is it too late to save us now
Does it matter anymore
Am I a fool to even hope
That you want me walkin' out the door

We've flown too high on borrowed wings
Touched the sky or so it seemed
I guess a fool can fall for anything
We've flown too high on borrowed wings
Guess fools can fall for anything
We've flown too high on borrowed wings

"Brown Eyed Handsome Man"

"Brown Eyed Handsome Man"


Flyin' cross the desert in a TWA I saw a woman walkin' cross the sand
Been a walkin' thirty miles on route to LA to get a brown eyed handsome man
Her destination was a brown eyed handsome man

Milo de Venus was a beautiful lass she had the world in the palm of her hand
But she lost both her arms in a wrestlin' match to get a brown eyed handsome man
She fought and won herself a brown eyed handsome man

Way back in hist'ry three thousand years in fact ever since the world began
There's been a whole lot of women who sheddin' tears
For a brown eyed handsome man
It was the trouble was a brown eyed handsome man

Beautiful daughter couldn't make up her mind between a doctor and a lawyer man
Mama told her darlin' go out and find yourself a brown eyed handsome man
Just like your daddy was a brown eyed handsome man

Arrested on charges of unemployment sittin' in the witness stand
The Judge's wife called up the district attorney said you free that brown eyed man
If you want your job you better free that brown eyed man

Way back in hist'ry three thousand years...

"By The Way"

"By The Way"


By the way I really love you
Just in case you didn't know
And I know baby it's not easy
For you to say I'm the one
But I can tell by the way you love
By the way you smile
By the way you say nothin'
I can see it all in your eyes

By the way I really need you
Everyday of my life
Don't worry baby if words escape you

I feel what you're feelin' and that's enough
I can tell by the way you love

By the way you smile
By the way you say nothin'
I can see it all in your eyes
By the way I know it's not easy
For you to say I'm the one
But I can tell by the way you love me
I can tell I'm the one by the way you love me

"California Cotton Fields"

"California Cotton Fields"


My driftin' memory goes back to the spring of '43
When I was just a child in Mama's arms.
My daddy plowed the ground and prayed
Someday we would be
Less rundown than this Oklahoma farm.

Then one night I heard my daddy saying to my mama
"We finally saved enough for us to go."
California was his dream
Every dime book he had seen
Pictures in magazines had told him so.

California Cotton Fields
Where labor camps were filled with worried men
With broken dreams.
California Cotton Fields
Was as close to wealth as Daddy ever came.

Almost everything we had was sold or left behind
From Daddy's smile to the fruit that Mama canned.
Some folks came to say farewell
And see what all we had to sell
Some just came to shake my daddy's hand.

Our Model A was loaded down and California bound
And a change of luck was just four days away.
But the only change that I remember
Seein' for my daddy
Was when his dark hair turned to silver grey.

California Cotton Fields
Where labor camps were filled with worried men
With broken dreams.
California Cotton Fields
Was as close to wealth as Daddy ever came.

California Cotton Fields

"Call On Me"

"Call On Me"


If your world comes crashing down;
If you need comfort but it can't be found;
If you're lonely, you can always call on me.

If nobody is listening to you,
I'll be the walls you tell your secrets to.
If you want me, night or day, just call on me.

I'm not asking for rings of gold,
Just one ring on my telephone.
I'm just wanting a chance to prove,
That my love is true;
If it connects with you,
Call on me.

There's no-one that I call mine,
I'm only held by the hands of time,
And it's a long wait, hoping you will call on me.

There's nothin' silent as a 'phone that won't ring.
Nothin' louder than your voice in my dreams,
It's a heartache knowing you don't call on me.

I'm not asking for rings of gold,
Just one ring on my telephone.
I'm just wanting a chance to prove,
That my love is true;
If it connects with you,
Call on me. (Call on me.)

Yeah, (Call on me.)

If you ever wanna get me on the line,
You got my number, it's this heart of mine.
I'm not asking for a ring of gold,
Just a love that won't turn cold.
Call on me.
Call me, yeah.
Call on Me.
Call me.

"Can I See You Tonight"

"Can I See You Tonight"


I don't know where to start
Now that we're fallen apart.
How can we talk to heart to heart you're so far away what can I say.
I've tried to under-stand but things got so out of hand
Held out as long as I can Now I'm on the telephone saying.

Can I see you tonight
Just think of the time that we've wasted
Everything will be right
It could be love if we make it.

Now that we're on the line
I'll tell you what's on my mind
The love we're trying to hide.
Well, it's suffering from to much pride.
When will we see the end to this game where nobody wins
For as long as nobody gives in It will go on and on and on.

Can I see you tonight
Just think of the time that we've wasted
Everything will be right
It could be love if we make it.

Instead of breaking up
Instead of breaking up

Can I see you tonight
Just think of the time that we've wasted
Everything will be right
It could be love if we make it.

Can I see you tonight
Just think of the time that we've wasted
Everything will be right
It could be love if we make it.

"Can't Run From Yourself"

"Can't Run From Yourself"


You can run for cover
You can run for help
You can run to your lover
But you
Can't ever run from yourself
No no no
Because there you are
No matter how far you go
You can run to Alaska
Run to L.A
Run home to mama
But you
Can't ever run from yourself

No no no
Because there you are
No matter how far you go

No matter how far you go
No matter how long you stay
You can run forever
But darling you will never
Never find true happiness that way
You can run for election
You can run for your life
Run for protection
But you
Can't ever run from yourself
No no no
Because there you are
No matter how far you go
Oh no

No matter how far you go
No matter how long you stay
You can run forever
But darling you will never
Never find true happiness that way

You can run for cover
You can run for help
You can run to your lover
But you
Can't ever run from yourself
No no no
Because there you are
No matter how far you go
There you are
No matter how far you go

"Changes"

"Changes"


Neither one of us will ever change,
We're both the same, and that's a shame,
'Cause when we were together it was right,
We had it all, you and I,
Your not changin' me, and I'm not changin' you,
The only change is what we're goin' through,
You took the part of me, that I was proudest of,
Now your sayin' thats the part that you can't love

[Chorus:]
Changes,
I'm gonna have to make some Changes,
Now that I know what your game is,
I know that I would only lose,
No matter what I do,
And the first change that I make'
Is gonna be you..

If love and what we had ain't what you want,
What do you need? You don't need me,
You said I was the answer to your prayers,
It don't seem fair, we both still care,

[Chorus]

Oh, someday, I'll get over you,
Can't you see we're through,
Oh, somehow I'll get over you, somehow,
Ohh, changes...

"Christmas To Christmas"

"Christmas To Christmas"


Seems like only yesterday
We put our Christmas things away
Now here's another Christmas day with you

When you're in love, how time does fly
And this year that's just flown by
Has been one happy holiday for two

Christmas to Christmas, wrapped in your arms
Love is always in the season, and always so warm
Till my days on earth are through
I will spend Christmas to Christmas loving you

Yes, the giving season's here again
Yuletide smiles are in demand
Time to love your fellow man, well, it's true

But the love we share is for all time
We'll feel its glow right through July
To melt the cold when winter flies anew

Christmas to Christmas, wrapped in your arms
Love is always in the season, and always so warm
Till my days on earth are through
I will spend Christmas to Christmas loving you

Yes, until my days on earth are through
I will spend Christmas to Christmas loving you
Oh, merry Christmas, baby
