"Never Let You Go Again"

"Never Let You Go Again"



Dreamed of you in my solitude
I told myself way back when
That if my prayers
Could get me there
I'd never let you go again

Darlin' I had lost you once
Thought my world had come to an end
Now in my hands
A second chance
I'll never let you go again

Now and forever more
You can come to me
Baby, run to me
And I'll take you into my arms
I'll never let you go again

Now and forever more
You can come to me
Baby, run to me
And I'll take you into my arms
I'll never let you go again

In my hands
A second chance
I'll never let you go again

"Not A Bad Thing"

"Not A Bad Thing"



I'm sittin' in this cafe
People talkin' so loud
I can't hear myself think
And that's not a bad thing

The coffee keeps on coming
Waiter keeps smilin'
As I'm ridin' on this river of caffeine
And that's not a bad thing

I used to feel sorry for someone like me
In a corner booth
Pretendin' to read on a Friday night
I used to say, "It just ain't right"

How could anybody ever have any fun
Without somebody, without someone?
It never dawned on me, the possibility
That it's not a bad thing

All those thoughts
Of how would I live without you
Tonight you know, they're few and far between
The waiter's name is Joey, he told me

And that's when I noticed
He ain't wearing any ring
And that's not a bad thing

There's a tug on the edge of my heart
It's you again sayin'
"Don't you start lettin' go of me"
But I'm not listenin'

For once in my life, I'll feel what I feel
Let it be, let it be real, let it flow through me
And wash me clean
That's not a bad thing, it's not a bad thing

As I'm drivin' home
I'm thinkin' the worst might be over
Or maybe I'm a little bit naive
But the street lights seem brighter

As I walk up to my front door
I'm all alone when I turn the key
And it's not a bad thing
No, it's not a bad thing

"Nothin' 'Bout Memphis"

"Nothin' 'Bout Memphis"



Can't believe I'm back here again
Feels like a lifetime and a thousand miles since then
It was just one summer night
But the kind of night you never can forget
And I'm here with my baby and we're driving downtown
He thinks I've never been here, wants to show me around

But he don't know nothin' 'bout Memphis
How could he ever know this was our town?
All he sees is that big old muddy river and the ghost of Elvis
But he don't know nothin' 'bout Memphis

Don't wanna look him in the eye
Scared he might see what I remember of that night
We were dancing on the water
We were singing hallelujah to the stars
And I know that it would hurt him, if he could see my past
He thinks he's the only one who's touched me like that

But he don't know nothin' 'bout Memphis
How could he ever know this was our town?
All he sees is that big old muddy river and the ghost of Elvis
But he don't know nothin' 'bout Memphis

Sweet, sweet Memphis, all the good times we had
Ain't no harm in looking back, no, no, no

He don't know nothin' 'bout Memphis
How could he ever know this was our town?
All he sees is that muddy Mississippi and the ghost of Elvis
But he don't know nothin' 'bout Memphis
Sweet, sweet Memphis

"Nothin' About You Is Good For Me"

"Nothin' About You Is Good For Me"



Don't come knockin' on my door no more
Don't you come around here messin' with me
Don't call me, baby, your pretty lady
Ain't the same little woman that she used to be

Don't you come over here layin' on the horn
Don't call my telephone one more time
Don't call my mama, don't call my sister
Don't nobody care what's on your mind

All your silver-tongue, sweet-talkin' lies
They got old a long, long time ago
You know it's a shame you're so
Hell bent on bein' hard-headed
(Ain't it though)

You ain't nothin' but a reason to run
You ain't got nothin' good for no one
No heart, no class, no job, no clue
Ain't nothin' about you good for me, baby
Nothin' about you is good for me, no

Don't you come over here wheelin' and a dealin'
Don't come around here beggin' me back
Makin' it a promise, not a nickel in your pocket
With your mouth writing checks that you can't cash

All your silver-tongue, sweet-talkin' lies
They got old a long, long time ago
You know it's a shame you're so
Hell bent on bein' hard-headed
(Ain't it though)

You ain't nothin' but a reason to run
You ain't got nothin' good for no one
No heart, no class, no job, no clue
Ain't nothin' about you good for me, baby
Nothin' about you is good for me, no

All your silver-tongue, sweet-talkin' lies
They got old a long, long time ago
You know it's a shame you're so
Hell bent on bein' hard-headed

You ain't nothin' but a reason to run
You ain't got nothin' good for no one
No heart, no class, no job, no clue
Ain't nothin' about you good for me, baby
Nothin' about you is good for me

I said, nothin' about you is good for me, baby
Nothin' about you is good for me, no

Don't come knockin' on my door no more
Don't you come around here messin' with me
Don't call me, baby, your pretty lady
Ain't the same little woman that she used to be

Don't come knockin' on my door no more
Don't you come around here messin' with me
Don't call me, baby, your pretty lady
Ain't the same little woman that she used to be, no
No, no

"O Mexico"

"O Mexico"



I'm catchin' this south bound train
I've had enough of the pouring rain
Chilled to the bone, I have to go
Love was never a friend of mine
The only friend that I have is time
It's down the track, ain't lookin' back
Mexico, O Mexico
I long to see your border town
Mexico, O Mexico
Adios mi corazon
The cars are clickin' the night along
But all I hear is a heartbreak song
Haunting me, relentlessly
Come the morning and I will stand
On the banks of the Rio Grande
A brand new day, wash those tears away
There's nothin' like the feel
Of the steel against the steel
And you can't forget the crying of the rail
There's nothin' like the sight
Of a moonlit desert night
To heal a broken heart that was so frail

"Oh Lonesome You"

"Oh Lonesome You"



You think you got me wrapped around your finger
You treat me like my mama raised a fool
But I'll tell you how you'll feel
When you hear my tires squeal
And I'm gone with somebody new

It's gonna be oh lonesome you
Moaning those all-night blues
Maybe you'll see what it's like to be me
When it's oh lonesome you

My pride is gettin' sore from being stepped on
My heart is weak from swimming through the tears
But my two feet are strong and it won't take'em long
Just to walk on out of here

Then it'll be oh lonesome you
Moaning those all-night blues
Maybe you'll see what it's like to be me
When it's oh lonesome you

It's gonna be oh lonesome you
Moaning those all-night blues
Maybe you'll see what it's like to be me
When it's oh lonesome you

"On A Bus To St. Cloud"

"On A Bus To St. Cloud"



On a bus to St. Cloud, Minnesota
I thought I saw you there
With the snow falling down around you
Like a silent prayer
And once on a street in New York City
With the jazz and the sin in the air
And once on a cold L.A. freeway
Going nowhere
And it's strange, but it's true
I was sure it was you
Just a face in the crowd
On a bus to St. Cloud

In a church in downtown New Orleans
I got down on my knees and prayed
And I wept in the arms of Jesus
For the choice you made
We were just gettin' to the good part
Just gettin' past the mystery
Oh, and it's just like you, it's just like you
To disagree
And it's strange but it's true
You just slipped out of view
Like a face in the crowd
On a bus to St. Cloud

And you chase me like a shadow
And you haunt me like a ghost
And I hate you some, and I love you some
But I miss you most...

On a bus to St. Cloud, Minnesota
I thought I saw you there
With the snow falling down around you
Like a silent prayer

"One In A Row"

"One In A Row"



If you can truthfully say
That you've been true just one day
Well that makes one in a row
One in a row, one in a row

And if you can look into my eyes
One time without telling lies
Well that makes one in a row
One in a row, one in a row

Why do I keep lovin' you
After all the things you do?
And just one time
Come into my arms
And be glad that you're in my arms
Well that makes one in a row
One in a row, one in a row

Why do I keep lovin' you
After all the things you do?
And just one time
Come into my arms
And be glad that you're in my arms
Well that makes one in a row
One in a row, one in a row

"One Love"

"One Love"



So many times love went south
Down into the valley of the shadow of doubt
My faith was failing, my hope was gone
I wandered in the wilderness all alone
You came to me like a revelation
In your arms I found salvation

One love
Took me to the mountaintop
Showed me a world I'd never seen
One love took me down to the riverside
Opened my heart and washed me clean
Nothin' less than a miracle
Sent from Heaven above
One love

I'm amazed by the wonder of you
The clouds all open, and the light comes through
All my life I had never guessed
That anyone could ever be so blessed
I feel brand new, I've been revived
All I want to do is testify

One love
Took me to the mountaintop
Showed me a world I'd never seen
One love took me down to the riverside
Opened my heart and washed me clean
Nothin' less than a miracle
Sent from Heaven above
One love

One love
Took me to the mountaintop
Showed me a world I'd never seen
One love took me down to the riverside
Opened my heart and washed me clean
Nothin' less than a miracle
Sent from Heaven above
One love

"Pistol"

"Pistol"


Well, this is what happens when you fall for a pistol...
No, no, I don't mean no gun.
Talkin' 'bout a man with bells and whistles...
The kind that keeps your heart on the run.

I met that cat in a two-bit juke-joint...
Took my money in a game of pool.
Next thing I knew, I was sittin' 'hind the eight ball,
Playin' my heart, breakin' all the rules.
Throw your rope around the runaway freight train,
You know it's gonna drag you down the track.
You dust your britches off, an' tell yourself you're insane,
But every time you love a man like that...

You get lost; you get lonely.
You get calls from the police.
Tell your Mama: "Don't know what happened."
Well you wanted trouble?
Now you got a fistful.
That's what happens when you fall for a pistol.
Ah ha.

[Instrumental break]

Well, you'd think by now I'd a-learned my lesson.
But I keep makin' them same mistakes.
There must be some clue I keep missin'...
How many times can a good heart break?
Well, I keep fallin' for all them bad boys...
Poor or rich as dirt.
Lots of fun, and I ain't jokin',
But every time I think I won't get hurt...

I get lost; I get lonely.
I get calls from the police.
Tell my Mama: "Don't know what happened."
Well, I wanted trouble?
Now I got a fistful.
That's what happens when you fall for a pistol.

[Instrumental break]

Well, you get lost; you get lonely.
You get calls from the police.
Tell your Mama: "Don't know what happened."
Well you wanted trouble, now you got a fistful.
Well, that's what happens when you fall for a pistol.
Well, that's what happens when you fall for a pistol, girl.

Sort of men'd give you a headache, now.
Oh, you'd better get on home.
