On a rainy Wednesday morning that's the way that I was born in
That old sharecropper's one room country shack They said my mommie left me the day before she had me Said she hit the road and never once looked back And I just like to mention my grandma's old age pension Is the reason why I'm standing here today I got all my country learning a milking and a churning Picking cotton raisin' hell and baling hay I been to Georgia on a fast train honey I wouldn't born no yesterday I got a good Christian raisin' and an eight grade education Ain't no need in y'all a treatin' me this way Now sweet Carolina I don't think I'll ever find Another woman put together like you are I like your wiggle in your walking and your big city talking And your brand new shiny Plymouth ragtop car Well it's hurry up and wait in this land of give and take It seems like haste it makes for waste everytime I declare to my soul when you hear those ages roll You better know I'm gonna get my share of mine I been to Georgia on a fast train... I been to Georgia on a fast train... |

My hat don't hang on the same nail too long
My ears can't stand to hear the same old song And I don't leave the highway long enough To bog down in the mud 'Cause I've got ramblin' fever in my blood I caught this ramblin' fever long ago When I first heard a lonesome whistle blow If someone said I ever gave a damn They damn sure told you wrong I've had ramblin' fever all along Ramblin' fever, the kind that can't be measured by degrees Ramblin' fever, there ain't no kind of cure for my disease There's times I'd like to bed down on a sofa And let some pretty lady rub my back And spend the early morning drinking coffee And talking about when I'll be coming back 'Cause I don't let know no woman tie me down And I'll never get too old to get around I'm gonna die along the highway and rot away Like some old high-line pole, Rest this ramblin' fever in my soul Ramblin' fever, the kind that can't be measured by degrees Ramblin' fever, there ain't no kind of cure for my disease ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By HAGGARD, MERLE <i>Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC</i> |

Shotgun Willie sits around in his underwear Bitin' a bullet, pullin' out all of his hair Shotgun Willie has got all of his family there You can't make a record if you ain't got nothin' to say You can't make a record if you ain't got nothin' to say You can't play music if you don't know nothin' to play (Repeat 1st verse) Well, John T. (Fours)? was workin' with the Klu Klux Klan The six foot five John T was a hell of a man Made a lot of money sellin' sheets on the family plan (Repeat 1st verse) |

Don't know why there's no sun up in the sky stormy weather
Since my gal and I ain't together keeps rainin' all the time Life is bare gloom and misery everywhere stormy weather Just can't get my poor self together I'm weary all the time all the time When she went away the blues walked in and met me If she stays away old rocking chair will get me All I do is pray the Lord above will let me walk in the sun once more Can't go on everything I had is gone stormy weather Since my gal and I ain't together keeps rainin' all the time |

Tonight you're mine completely
You give your love so sweety Tonight the light of love is in your eyes But will you love me tomorrow Is this a lasting treasure Or just a moment's pleasure Can I believe the magic of your sighs Will you still love me tomorrow Tonight with words unspoken You said that I'm the only one But will my heart be broken When the night (when the night) Meets the morning (meets the morning) sun I'll like to know that your love Is love I can be sure of So tell me now and I won't ask again Will you still love me tomorrow Will you still love me tomorrow Will you still love me tomorrow |

Still is still moving to me
And I swim like a fish in the sea all the time But if that's what it takes to be free I don't mind Still is still moving to me Still is still moving to me And it's hard to explain how I feel It won't go in words but I know that it's real I can be moving or I can be still But still is still moving me Still is still moving to me And it's hard to explain how I feel It won't go in words but I know that it's real I can be moving or I can be still But still is still moving me Still is still moving to me And it's hard to explain how I feel It won't go in words but I know that it's real I can be moving or I can be still But still is still moving me Still is still moving to me Still is still moving to me Still is still moving to me |

Each time I hold somebody new
My arms go cold thinking of you No one can take your place Darling, in my embrace I'll never be free And when my lips burn with desire No other kiss can put out the fire Though I may try and try No one can satisfy This longing in me I'll never be free from your smile so tender The sweet surrender in your eyes I cannot be free when I remember Oh, how you fill me with desire Just like a train tracks through my heart Your love remains while we're apart That kiss I gave to you Made me a slave to you I'll never be free I'll never be free from your smile so tender The sweet surrender in your eyes I cannot be free when I remember Oh, how you fill me with desire Just like a train track through my heart Your love remains while we're apart That kiss I gave to you Made me a slave to you I'll never be free That kiss I gave to you Made me a slave to you I'll never be free, free ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By BENJAMIN, BENNIE / WEISS, GEORGE DAVID <i>Lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc., LARRY SPIER MUSIC LLC OBO ABILENE MUSIC LLC</i> |

Just watch the sunrise on the other side of town
Once more I've waited and once more you've let me down This would be a perfect time for me to die I'd like to take this opportunity to cry You gave your word now I return it to you with this suggestion as to what you can do Just exchange the words I love you for goodbye while I take this opportunity to cry I'd like to see you but I'm afraid that I don't know wrong from right And if I saw you would I kiss you or want to kill you out of sight It's been a long night so I think I'll go home And feed my nightmares they've been waiting all night long They'll be the last ones to tell me goodbye And they'll give me many opportunities to cry They'll give me many opportunities to cry |

The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine
The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine He drink whiskey, Poncho drink the wine He drink whiskey, Poncho drink the wine We met down on the fort of Rio Grande We met down on the fort of Rio Grande Eat the salted peanuts out of can Eat the salted peanuts out the can The outlaws had us pinned down at the fort The outlaws had us pinned down at the fort Cisco came in blastin', drinkin' port Cisco came in blastin', drinkin' port They rode the sunset, horse was made of steel They rode the sunset, horse was made of steel Chased a gringo last night through a field Chased a gringo last night through a field The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine The Cisco Kid he was a friend of mine The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine The Cisco Kid he was a friend of mine The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine The Cisco Kid was a friend of mine The Cisco Kid he was a friend of mine The Cisco Kid he was a friend of mine The Cisco Kid he was a friend of mine |

Livin on the road my friend, is gonna keep you free and clean Now you wear your skin like iron Your breath as hard as kerosene You weren't your momma's only boy, but her favorite one it seems She began to cry when you said goodbye And sank into your dreams Pancho was a bandit boy, his horse was fast as polished steel He wore his gun outside his pants For all the honest world to feel Pancho met his match you know on the deserts down in Mexico Nobody heard his dyin words, ah but that's the way it goes All the Federales say, they could've had him any day They only let him slip away, out of kindness I suppose Lefty he can't sing the blues all night long like he used to The dust that Pancho bit down south ended up in Lefty's mouth The day they laid poor Pancho low, Lefty split for Ohio Where he got the bread to go, there ain't nobody knows All the Federales say, they could've had him any day They only let him slip away out of kindness I suppose The boys tell how old Pancho fell, and Lefty's livin in cheap hotels The desert's quiet, Cleveland's cold And so the story ends we're told Pancho needs your prayers it's true, but save a few for Lefty too He only did what he had to do, and now he's growing old All the Federales say, they could've had him any day They only let him slip away out of kindness I suppose A few gray Federales say, they could've had him any day They only let him slip away out of kindness I suppose |

Over time
That's what they all tell me That's what they say to me Over time Your blue eyes and your black eyelashes The way you looked at life in your funny way I guess out of the blue you won't cross my mind And I'll get over you over time Your pale skin and your sexy crooked teeth The trouble you get in in your clumsy way I guess one afternoon you won't cross my mind And I'll get over you over time I guess out of the blue you won't cross my mind And I'll get over you over time |

The first thing I remember knowing,
Was a lonesome whistle blowing, And a young un's dream of growing up to ride, On a freight train leaving town, Not knowing where I'm bound, No-one could change my mind but Mama tried. One and only rebel child, From a family, meek and mild, My Mama seemed to know what lay in store. Despite my Sunday learning, Towards the bad, I kept turning. 'Til Mama couldn't hold me anymore. And I turned twenty-one in prion doing life without parole. No-one could steer me right but Mama tried, Mama tried. Mama tried to aise me better, but her pleading, I denied. That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried. Dear old Daddy, rest his soul, Left my Mom a heavy load, She tried so very hard to fill his shoes. Working hours without rest, Wanted me to have the best. She tried to raise me right but I refused. I turned twenty-one in prison doing life without parole. No-one could steer me right but Mama tried, Mama tried, Mama tried to raise me better, but her pleading, I denied. That leaves only me to blame 'cause Mama tried. |

I can hear the wind blowing in my mind
Just the way it used to do through the Georgia pines And you were there to answer when I called You and me, Lord knows, we had it all Remember how I used to touch your hair, baby Looking for the feeling, it was always there You're the best thing in my life I can recall Yeah baby, you and me, we had it all I know that we can never live those times again And I get old feelings that I'll be there back again And I'll stay with you girl just as long as I can 'Cause it was so good, oh, it was so good, you know Yes, it was so good when I was your man And I'll never stop believing in your smile Even though, you didn't stay, it was all worth while And I know that beneath of it all, baby Just you and me, we had it all You and me, we had it all You and me, we had it all |

Some glad morning when this life is over
I'll fly away To that home on God's celestial shore I'll fly away, everybody say right here I'll fly away, oh glory I'll fly away in the morning When I die Hallelujah, by and by I'll fly away Just a few more weary days and then I'll fly away To a land where joys will never end I'll fly away, here we go I'll fly away, oh glory I'll fly away in the morning When I die Hallelujah, by and by I'll fly away, little sister let me hear you play Just a few more weary days and then Let me hear it, I'll fly away To a land where joys will never end I'll fly away I'll fly away, oh glory I'll fly away in the morning When I die Hallelujah, by and by I'll fly away, one more time real loud I'll fly away, oh glory I'll fly away in the morning When I die Hallelujah, by and by I'll fly away, big finish When I die Hallelujah, by and by I'll fly away |
