"If It's Wrong To Love You"

"If It's Wrong To Love You"


If it's wrong to love you
Wrong I'll always be
And though the world may scorn me
Darling, can't you see
If it's wrong to want you
When my day is through
Gladly I will pay for
All my dreams of you
And though we met too late, dear
And you'll never know
That without a right to
I have loved you so
I can't change my heart now
You're a part of me
So if it's wrong to love you
Wrong I'll always be

[guitar]

And though we met too late, dear
And you'll never know
That without a right to
I have loved you so
I can't change my heart now
You're a part of me
So if it's wrong to love you
Wrong I'll always be

"If You Really Loved Me"

"If You Really Loved Me"



If you really loved me
You wouldn't treat me this way
And you'd be kind enough
To leave some life while I'm away
And I might cry when you go
But I won't die when you go
And someday someone just might come along

If you really loved me
You wouldn't test me this way
You wouldn't leave the choice of leaving up to me
But I'm too proud to survive
Cause I'm more dead than alive
Cause someday someone just might come along

"If You've Got The Money I've Got The Time"

"If You've Got The Money I've Got The Time"


(Two one two three four one)
If you've got the money honey I've got the time
We'll go honky tonkin' and we'll have a time
We'll have more fun baby all way down the line
If you've got the money honey I've got the time
There ain't no need to tarry let's start out tonight
We'll have fun oh boy oh boy and we'll do it right
Bring along your Cadillac leave my old wreck behind
If you've got the money honey I've got the time
[piano - harmonica]
We'll go honky tonkin' make every spot in town
We'll go to the every spot and leave all gold around
If you run short of money I'll run short of time
If you've got no more money honey I've got no more time
If you've got the money honey I've got the time
We'll go honky tonkin' and we'll have a time
Bring along your Cadillac leave my old wreck behind
If you've got the money honey I've got the time

"In God's Eyes"

"In God's Eyes"


Never think evil thoughts of anyone
It's just as wrong to think as to say
For a thought is but a word that's unspoken
In God's eyes He sees it this way
Lend a hand if you can to a stranger
Never worry if he can't repay
For in time you'll be repaid ten times over
In God's eyes He sees it this way
In God's eyes we're like sheep in a meadow
Now and then a lamb goes astray
But open arms should await it's returning
In God's eyes He sees it this way

[guitar]

In God's eyes we're like sheep in a meadow
Now and then a lamb goes astray
But open arms should await it's returning
In God's eyes He sees it this way

"In My Mother's Eyes"

"In My Mother's Eyes"



One bright and guiding light
That taught me wrong from right
I found in my mother's eyes

Those baby tales she told
Of streets are paved with gold
I found I found I found in my mother's eyes

Just like a wandering sparrow
One lonely soul
I walk the straight and narrow
Just to reach my goal

God's gift sent from above
A real real real unselfish love
I found I found in my mother's eyes
Just like a wandering sparrow

One lonely soul
I walk the straight and narrow
Just to reach my goal

Oh God's gift sent from above
Just a real a real a real unselfish love
Oh I found I found in my mother's eyes
I found I found in my mother'sin my mother's eyes

"In The Garden"

"In The Garden"



I come to the garden alone
While the dew is still on the roses
And the voice I hear, falling on my ear
The Son of God discloses

And He walks with me
And He talks with me
And He tells me I am His own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known

He speaks and the sound of His voice
Is so sweet the birds hush their singing
And the melody that He gave to me
Within my heart is ringing

And He walks with me
And He talks with me
And He tells me I am His own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known

I'd stay in the garden with Him
'Tho the night around me be falling
But He bids me go; through the voice of woe
His voice to me is calling

And He walks with me
And He talks with me
And He tells me I am His own
And the joy we share as we tarry there
None other has ever known

"Is the Better Part Over"

"Is the Better Part Over"



Is the better part over?
Has a ragin' river turned into a stream?
Is the better part over?
Are we down to not quite sayin' what we mean?

And after thinkin' it over
Wouldn't you rather have the endin' nice and clean
Where love remains in all the closing scenes?
If the better part's over

Why hang around
For an endin' that's laden with sorrow?
We've both been around
We've both seen that movie before

And as much as I love you
I can't live while fearin' tomorrow
If the better part's over
Then why should we try anymore?

Is the better part over?
Has a ragin' river turned into a stream?
Is the better part over?
Are we down to not quite sayin' what we mean?

And after thinkin' it over
Wouldn't you rather have the endin' nice and clean
Where love remains in all the closing scenes
Is the better part over?

"Island In The Sea"

"Island In The Sea"


I am a roving cowboy ridin' all alone
And for such a roving cowboy I've sure made myself at home
I love your sunshine I love your flowers I love your ocean rolling in
And for such a roving cowboy I've sure found myself a friend
I am a cowboy I am a sailor I have drifted far and wide
I have crossed the seven oceans I have crossed the Great Divide
But if you're ever looking for me let me tell you where I'll be
I'll be somewhere soaking up sunshine on my island in the sea
[mandolin - harmonica - guitar - yodel]

 

[fox69]

"It Always Will Be"

"It Always Will Be"



Sometimes I think that love is somewhere
Livin' on an island all alone
I can see it in the darkness
I can feel it in the distance and then it's gone

And then I know that it is time
For me to go and find my favorite girl
'Cause when I look into her eyes I see
All the love there is in all over the world

And it always will be
And it always will be
And it always will be
It always will be

There are some things I think about
And every time I do it breaks my heart
And there is nothing I can do
About this loneliness I feel when we're apart

And I stop and curse the darkness and the distance
And then your face I've see
And when I look into your eyes I've see
All the love there is inside of me

And it always will be
And it always will be
And it always will be
It always will be

And it always will be
And it always will be
And it always will be
And it always will be

"It Could Be Said That Way"

"It Could Be Said That Way"



When we look into each other's eyes
Our hearts aren't beating wildly as they beat before
And when we hold each other in our arms
We can't receive the same vibrations anymore
And when we hear each other speak our names
We don't hear the ringing and the singing of a million bells
Perhaps our hearing's failing us perhaps we're hearing other things but who can tell
It could be said that way it could be said that way
But I'd much rather say it's time for me to go
What's the point in making leaving any harder than a leaving really ought to be
And this road on which I travel paved with broken glass and gravel
Has just room for me I hope there's room for me
I suspect that I'll be lonely but I know that if I'm lonely I'll deserve to be
And I plan to think about you just as often as I will and that's my plans for me
It could be said that way it could be said that way
But I'd much rather say it's time for me to go
What's the use in making rhymes I'd much rather say it's time for me to go
