"Heartbreak Hotel"

"Heartbreak Hotel"


Oh since my baby left me I've found new place to dwell
Down at the end on Lonely Street at Heartbreak Hotel
I get so lonely baby I get so lonely baby I get so lonely I could die
And though it's always crowded you can still find some room
For broken hearted lovers to cry away the gloom
I get so lonely baby I get so lonely baby I get so lonely I could die
[guitar - sax]
Well the bellhop's tears keep flowing the deskclerk's dressed in black
They've been so long on Lonely Street they'll never never never get back
I get so lonely baby I get so lonely baby I get so lonely I could die
So if your baby leaves and you got a tale to tell
Just take a walk down Lonely Street to Heartbreak Hotel
I get so lonely baby I get so lonely baby I get so lonely I could die
[guitar]
Oh since my baby left me...

"Heartland"

"Heartland"


There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
And the bankers are taking my home and my land from me
There's a big achin' hole in my chest now where my heart was
And a hole in the sky where God used to be
There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
There's a well where the water's so bitter nobody can drink
Ain't no way to get high and my mouth is so dry that I can't speak
Don't they know that I'm dyin' why's nobody cryin' for me
My American dream fell apart at the seams
You tell me what it means you tell me what it means
[guitar]
There's a home place under fire tonight in a heartland
And bankers are taking the homes and the land away
There's a young boy closin' his eyes tonight in a heartland
Who will wake up a man with some land and a loan he can't pay
His American dream fell apart at the seams
You tell me what it means you tell me what it means
My American dream...
There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland
There's a home place under fire tonight in the heartland

"Heaven And Hell"

"Heaven And Hell"




Well sometimes it's heaven and sometimes it's hell sometimes I don't even know
Sometimes I take it as far as I can and sometimes I don't even go
My front tracks're found for a cold water and my back tracks're covered with snow
Sometimes it's heaven sometimes it's hell sometimes I don't even know
[steel - piano]
Heaven ain't walkin' on a street paved with gold and hell ain't a mountain of fire
Heaven is layin' in my sweet baby's arms hell is when baby ain't there
Well my front tracks're found...
Well sometimes it's heaven and sometimes it's hell sometimes I don't even know

"Hello Walls"

"Hello Walls"



Hello walls, (Hello, hello.)
How'd things go for you today?
Don't you miss her.
Since she up and walked away?
And I'll bet you dread to spend another lonely night with me,
But lonely walls, I'll keep you company.

Hello window, (Hello, hello.)
Well, I see that you're still here.
Aren't you lonely,
Since our darlin disappeared?
Well look here, is that a teardrop in the corner of your pane?
Now don't you try to tell me that's it's rain.

She went away and left us all alone the way she planned.
Guess we'll have to learn to get along without her if we can.

Hello ceiling, (Hello, hello.)
I'm gonna stare at you a while.
You know I can't sleep,
So won't you bear with me a while?
We gotta all stick together or else I'll lose my mind.
I gotta feelin' she'll be gone a long, long time.

(Hello, hello wall.)

"Help Me Make It Through The Night"

"Help Me Make It Through The Night"


Take the ribbons from your hair shake 'em loose and let 'em fall
Let 'em fall against your chin like the shadows on the wall
Come and lay down by my side till the early morning light
All I'm taking is your time help me make it through the night
Well I don't care who's right or wrong and I won't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow cause tonight I need a friend
Yesterday is dead and gone and tomorrow's out of sight
And it's sad to be alone help me make it through the night
[ac.guitar]
Well I don't care who's right or wrong...
I can't stand to be alone help me make it through the night

"Here Comes Santa Claus"

"Here Comes Santa Claus"



Here comes Santa Claus!
Here comes Santa Claus!
Right down Santa Claus Lane!
Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer
Are pulling on the reins.
Bells are ringing, children singing;
All is merry and bright.
Hang your stockings and say your prayers,
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.

Here comes Santa Claus!
Here comes Santa Claus!
Right down Santa Claus Lane!
He's got a bag that is filled with toys
For the boys and girls again.
Hear those sleigh bells jingle jangle,
What a beautiful sight.
Jump in bed, cover up your head,
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight

"Hero"
(feat. Billy Joe Shaver & Jamey Johnson)

"Hero"
(feat. Billy Joe Shaver & Jamey Johnson)



Where is our hero tonight?
The bars are all booming
And he's nowhere in sight
Wherever he is Lord, we hope he's alright
Where is our hero tonight?

He used to be king of the bars
He's opened and closed them from Waco to Mars
Now he sings on the streets and he sleeps in his car
But he used to be king of the bars.

Where is our hero tonight?
He left here a-sailing, he was high as a kite
Feeling kinda sorry, and looking for a fight
Where is our hero tonight?

And where is our hero today?
Can we just tag along, we'll stay out his way.
Does he still write the sad songs and can he still play
Where is our hero today?

Where is our hero tonight?
The bars are all booming
And he's nowhere in sight
Wherever he is Lord, we hope he's alright
Where is our hero tonight?

Wherever he is Lord, we hope he's alright
But where is our hero tonight?

"Hesitation Blues"
(feat. Asleep at the Wheel)

"Hesitation Blues"
(feat. Asleep at the Wheel)



Well, a nickel is a nickel, a dime is a dime
I need a new man, Lord I know I won't mind.
Tell me how long, dear, do I have to wait?
Can I get you now, dear, must I hesitate?

Well now, the eagle on the dollar says "In God we trust"
You say you won't obey me, you wanna see that dollar first
How long, dear, do I have to wait?
Can I get you now, dear, mm, must I hesitate?

Lord, if the river was made of whiskey an' I was a duck,
I'd just swim to the bottom an' I'd never come up.
How long, dear, mm, do I have to wait?
Why, can I get you now, dear, mm, must I hesitate?

Now there's rocks down in the ocean and there's fish in the sea,
I know you mean the whole world to me.
How long, dear, must I have to wait?
Can I get you now, dear, mm, must I hesitate?

I got them Hesitation Stockings, I got them Hesitation Shoes,
Lord knows I got them Hesitation Blues.
Tell me, how long do I have to wait?
Why, can I get you now, dear, mm, must I hesitate?

"Hold Me Tighter"

"Hold Me Tighter"


I thought if I could be with you
Maybe I'd feel better
But I'm afraid I took advantage of your love
I thought if you'd just hold me tight
Maybe I'd forget her
But I don't suppose as yet
You've held me tight enough
Please hold me tighter
I still remember
Put your arms around me
Hold me close, hold me tight and long
Please hold me tighter
I still remember
And I can't love again
Until her mem'ry's gone

[steel]

Please hold me tighter...

"Home In San Antone"

"Home In San Antone"


Haven't got a worry haven't got a care I haven't got a thing to call my own
Though I'm out of money and I'm a millionaire
I still have my home in San Antone when I greet my neighbor with a hi y'all
I'm wealthy as a king upon a throne
But when I feel like braggin' I just up and say I'm a native son of San Antone
[fiddle - guitar]
Well I travel around the country on my merry way
I've been to crowds and felt I was alone
But when I feel like braggin' I just up and say I'm a native son of San Antone
There's a sweet somebody by the Alamo someday she's goin' to be my very own
And we'll buy a high chair in a year or so for our little home in San Antone
For our little home in San Antone
[fiddle]
For our little home in San Antone
[fiddle]
For our little home in San Antone
