Baby brought me in out off the highway Made me put my money in the bank, bank Straightened out my crooked way of thinking Made it purely pleasure when I drank And It's all right I've just hit my stride Right off the bat Lord, I'm drunk on Bluebird Wine Baby taught me a diff'rent way of thinkin' Like how to spend my evenings here at home List'ning to the music on the radio Drinking all the Bluebird we can hold And It's all right I've just hit my stride Right off the bat Lord, I'm drunk on Bluebird Wine Baby says he'd really love a party We'll get some friends together feelin' fine Any friend of mine is worth his habit A belly full of baby's Bluebird Wine And It's all right I've just hit my stride Right off the bat Lord, I'm drunk on Bluebird Wine |

I know that somewhere there's someone you love more than me
Someone you love more than me And I hate to say it, but you have a right to be free I know that's the way it should be But I'm too far gone Too far gone I've loved you so much for so long And I'm too far gone If ever your new love should hurt you or make you feel blue Hurt you or make you feel blue Just remember old love will still be around loving you I'll be around loving you 'Cause I'm too far gone Too far gone I love you so much for so long And I'm too far gone |

If I could only win your love
I'd make the most of everything I'd proudly wear your wedding ring My heart would never stray when you're away If I could only win your love I'd give my all to make it live You'll never know how much I give If I could only win your love Oh how can I ever say How I crave your love when your gone away Oh how can I ever show How I burn inside when you hold me tight If I could only win your love I'd give my all to make it live You'll never know how much I give If I could only win your love Oh how can I ever say How I crave your love when your gone away Oh how can I ever show How I burn inside when you hold me tight If I could only win your love I'd give my all to make it live You'll never know how much I give If I could only win your love |

I don't want to hear a love song
I got on this airplane just to fly And i know there's life below But all that it can show me Is the prairie and the sky And i don't want to hear a sad story Full of heartbreak and desire The last time i felt like this It was in the wilderness and the canyon was on fire And i stood on the mountain in the night and i watched it burn I watched it burn, i watched it burn. I would rock my soul in the bosom of abraham I would hold my life in his saving grace. I would walk all the way from boulder to birmingham If i thought i could see, i could see your face. Well you really got me this time And the hardest part is knowing i'll survive. I have come to listen for the sound Of the trucks as they move down Out on ninety five And pretend that it's the ocean Coming down to wash me clean, to wash me clean Baby do you know what i mean I would rock my soul in the bosom of abraham I would hold my life in his saving grace. I would walk all the way from boulder to birmingham If i thought i could see, i could see your face. |

Winter Summer seasons is taken over it's quiet Like new fallen snow I told you summer stories but outside is getting mighty cold I told you everything I could about me Told you everything I could How would you feel if the world was falling apart around you Pieces of the sky were falling in your neighbors yard But not on you Wouldn't you feel just a little bit funny Think maybe there's something you oughta do Solutions that never lay down before you the answers are all around Believing is all the friend you need to talk to Believing in you I told you everything I could about me Told you everything I could I told you everything I could about me Told you everything I could |

Each night I leave the barroom when it's over
Not feeling any pain at closing time But tonight you memory found me much to sober Couldn't drink enough to keep you off my mind Tonight the bottle let down and let you memory come around The one true friend I thought I'd found Tonight the bottle let down I've always had a bottle I could turn to And lately I've been turning everyday But the wind don't take effect the way it used to And I'm hurting in an old familiar way Tonight the bottle let down and let you memory come around The one true friend I thought I'd found Tonight the bottle let down |

Thru the sleepless nights I cry for you And wonder who is kissing you Oh these sleepless nights will break my heart again Somehow thru the day I don't give in I hide the tears that wait until Oh these sleepless nights will break my heart again Why did you go why did you go Don't you know don't you know I need you |

Back through the years I go wondering once again Back to the seasons of my youth I recall a box of rags that someone gave us And how my mamma put these rags to use There were rags of many colours, and every piece was small And I didn't have a coat and it was way down in the fall Mamma sewed the rags together, sewing ever piece with love She made my coat of many colours, that I was so proud of As she sewed she told the story from the bible she had read About a coat of many colours, Joseph wore and they she said Perhaps this coat will bring you, much love and happiness And I just couldn't wait to wear it, and mamma blessed it with a kiss My coat of many colours that mamma made for me Made only rags, but I wore it so proudly Although we had no money. oh I was rich as I could be In my coat of many colours, my mamma made for me So with patches on my breaches and holes in both my shoes In my coat of many colours, I hurried off to school Just to find the others laughing and makin' fun of me In my coat of many colours, my mamma made for me Oh, I couldn't understand it, for I felt I was rich And I told them of the love my mamma sewed in ever stitch And I told them all the story, mamma told me while she sewed And how my coat of many colours is worth more than all of their clothes They didn't under stand it and I tried to make them see That one is only poor only if they choose to be Now I know we have no money, but I'm as rich as I could be In my coat of many colours, my mamma made for me In my coat of many colours, my mamma just made for me |

The day breaks your mind aches You find that all her words of kindness linger on She no longer needs you She wakes up she makes up She takes her time and doesn't feel she has to hurry She no longer needs you And in her eyes you see nothing No sign of love behind the tears Cried for no one A love that should have lasted years You want her you need her And yet you don't believe her when she said her love is dead You think she needs you She goes out you stay home She says that long ago she knew someone but now he's gone She doesn't need him And in her eyes you see nothing No sign of love behind the tears Cried for no one A love that should have lasted years Your day breaks your mind aches There will be time when all the things she said Will fill your head You won't forget her |

She arrives in all her splendor Each night at nine o'clock Her chariot is the crosstown bus That stops right down the block Now the old piano minstrel plays her tune as she walks in And the Queen of the Silver Dollar's home again She's the Queen of the Silver Dollar She rules this smokey kingdom Scepter is a wine glass and a bar stool is her throne Now the jesters flock around her tryina_T to win her favors To see which one will take the Queen of the Silver Dollar home Now her royal dress is satin It's shabby and it's torn The royal jewels are rhinestones The shoes are scuffed and worn Of the many roads she's been down, And the places that she's seen Well they all look at her and say God save the queen Now the Queen of the Silver Dollar Is not as haughty as she seems She was once an ordinary girl with ordinary dreams But there's a man who found her And he brought her to this world He's the one who made a queen of a simple country girl Yes I'm the Queen of the Silver Dollar I rule this smokey kingdom Scepter is a wine glass and a bar stool is my throne Now the jesters flock around me tryin' to win my favors To see which one will take the Queen of the Silver Dollar home Yes I'm the Queen of the Silver Dollar I rule this smokey kingdom Scepter is a wine glass and a bar stool is my throne Now the jesters flock around me tryin' to win my favors To see which one will take the Queen of the Silver Dollar home |

Daddy had a 1949 ford
When I was just about ten years old We would listen to Hank and Lefty on the radio Why Don't You Love Like You Used to Do? And Just Look What Thoughts Will Do. Old Hank and Lefty raised my country soul. Chours: Now I learned how to sing and shuffle my shoes Listin to Hank sing the Lovesick Blues. We never met Ol' Hank but we was awful close Cut my teeth on Always Late. And I Love You a Thousand Ways. Ol' Hank and Lefty raised my country soul. --- Instrumental --- Daddy said the hair on his neck would crawl When old Hank sang about the light he saw Hank sure put a whole lot of heart in the songs he wrote Everytime daddy got a little bit tight Mom and Dad's Waltz would make him cry Old Hank and Lefty raised my country soul. Chours: Now I learned how to sing and shuffle my shoes Listin to Hank sing the Lovesick Blues. We never met Ol' Hank but we was awful close Cut my teeth on Always Late. And I Love You a Thousand Ways. Ol' Hank and Lefty raised my country soul. Old Hank and Lefty raised my country soul. Old Hank and Lefty raised my country soul... |
