The claim we hold is as good as gold, bonanza
Hand in hand we built this land, the Ponderosa Ranch Our birthright is this Cartwright bonanza We here belong, and standing strong, wrong ain't got a chance . Day by day, work or play, ready side by side Hello friend, come on in, the gate is open wide Bound to be a fightin' free bonanza, Singing pines of boundary lines for the Ponderosa Ranch. [ guitar ] Every tree and flower is part of our bonanza The stars at night, the morning light, water in the branch We ride along four men strong together Every plain and ridge is our heritage: Ponderosa Ranch Day by day, work or play, ready side by side. Hello friend, come on in, the gate is open wide. Bound to be a fightin' free bonanza, Singing pines of boundary lines for the Ponderosa Ranch. |

My baby left me just the other day
I guess the things will never be the same But I must forget that she is gone Cause time goes by and life goes on making plans, shaking hands try to prove that I'm a man It's hard to do but I must try cause life goes on and so will I [Solo: play riff 2 times] It's been kinda tough these last few days trying to act normal and be gay It's not easy to be all alone but time goes by and life goes on If I see her anywhere I hope she thinks that I don't care For after night there comes the dawn Yes time goes by and life goes on [Outro: once the riff and fade out] |

I found him by the railroad track this morning
I could see that he was nearly dead I knelt down beside him and I listened Just to hear the words the dying fellow said He said they let me out of prison down in Frisco For ten long years I've paid for what I've done I was trying to get back to Louisiana To see my Rose and get to know my son Chorus: Give my love to Rose please won't you mister Take her all my money, tell her to buy some pretty clothes Tell my boy his daddy's so proud of him And don't forget to give my love to Rose Tell them I said thanks for waiting for me Tell my boy to help his mom at home Tell my Rose to try to find another For it ain't right that she should live alone Mister here's a bag with all my money It won't last them long the way it goes God bless you for finding me this morning And don't forget to give my love to Rose Chorus: Give my love to Rose please won't you mister Take her all my money, tell her to buy some pretty clothes Tell my boy his daddy's so proud of him And don't forget to give my love to Rose |

I have sailed the peaceful waters of the ocean deep and blue
I held my breath and watched the western sunsets golden hue I've flown above the mountain peaks and valleys wide and green But you're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen You're the nearest thing to heaven yes you are I have searched for happiness so long and far But my search for love was through the day that I found you Cause you're the nearest thing to heaven yes you are I confess that I've been tempted by a luring magic charms When the smile was flashed my way and stood before two open arms But I turned and walked away because I love you like I do You're the nearest thing to heaven darlin' you You're the nearest thing to heaven... [ guitar ] I have watched the silver raindrops fall to earth to cool the day Watched the rainbow at twilight when the clouds had blown away I love the pretty flowers but they cannot buy the worth Cause you're the nearest thing to heaven on this earth You're the nearest thing to heaven... |

I tried so hard my dear to show that you're my every dream
Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme Now a memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue And so my heart is paying now for things I didn't do In anger unkind words are said they make the teardrops start Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart Yeah, there was a time when I believed that you belonged to me But now I know your heart is shackled to a memory The more I learn to care for you the more we drift apart Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold, cold heart |

I love you because you understand dear
Every little thing I try to do Your always there to lend a helping hand dear But most of all I love you cause you're you No matter what may be the style or season I know your love will always see me through I love you for a hundred- thousand reasons But most of all I love you cause you're you I love you because my heart is lighter Every time I'm walking by your side I love you because the future's brighter The glow to happiness you've opened wide No matter what the world may say about me I know your heart will always be true I love you for the way you never doubt me But most of all I love you cause you're you |

(Just about time I'm feelin' blue tryin' to get over you)
Maybe it's just about time I told you I'm all through with you But just about the time I start to tell you I start feeling blue And just about then I lose my nerve and wait another day or two Cause just about the time I think it's over I start missing you (Hardest thing I'll ever do tryin' to get over you) It's just about time I had my sayin' I told you a thing or two It's just about time I paid you back you treat me like you do But just about the time I get the nerve I can't seem to carry through Cause just about then an mpty feelin' reminds me I miss you (Like to find somebody new I could just get you) [ guitar ] (Just don't know what I go through tryin' to get over you) It's just about time I let you know I've had my fill of you But just about the time I think about goin' I start missin' you I'd like to go find another love that'll never be untrue But just about the time I think about leavin' I start missin' you (Havin' a hard time feelin' blue tryin' to get over you) |

I just thought you'd like to know
Since you'd made your plans to go It's gonna hurt me so to see you go But I hope you find another love and he'll be good to you But still and yet I can't forget the things we used to do I just thought I tell you this I love you since that first sweet kiss It's gonna hurt to miss your tender kiss But I hope you get to do the things you say you wanna do But still and yet I can't forget the happiness we knew I just thought you'd like to know how much you've hurt my pride I just thought you'd like to know how much my heart has cried over you But darling you could never see the misery you caused for me So I will tell you so cause I just thought that you'd like to know |

Oh, What A Dream
I dreamed I walked in a field of flowers Oh, what a dream The houses all were silver towers Oh, what a dream Beside the road an angel sat, I said hello and tipped my hat And stopped when I saw her smile And set me down a while I set me down a while You dreamer you I tried the angel for a kiss Oh, what a dream But she turned away and my lips missed Oh, what a dream She said, "Sir, I'll have you know I met you just a while ago You're welcome for to sit But calm yourself a bit, sir Calm yourself a bit You dreamer you I fell in love like one, two, three Oh, what a dream I asked the angel to marry me Oh, what a dream She said, "Sir, I can't marry you, But I'm a dream that can come true There are dreams of much my worth That live upon the earth, sir Live upon the earth You dreamer you" Then I awoke and found my love Oh, what a dream As heavenly as the one above Oh, what a dream We'll marry in a sea of flowers, Home will be a silver tower There'll be heaven in my life With an angel for a wife With an angel for a wife You dreamer you You dreamer you |
