Well, they say that I'm too country, the way I look and sound.
They wanna to make me over, just a little more uptown. Say I need to change my image, now tell me what's that mean. Don't they know I've got country in my genes? Well, I can't help the way I talk, I wouldn't change it if I could. Sophisticated ain't my style, but country fits me good. I ain't ashamed to wear what's been handed down to me. Lord, I've got country in my genes. I've got country in my genes, country in my blood. It goes back generations. It's something I'm proud of. It's something I was born with, what you get is what you see. I'm just an old hillybilly with a country song to sing. Lord, I've got country in my genes. Oh that Earl Scruggs. If country's hit the big time, me, I'm still the same. I ain't above my raisin' and I ain't about to change. I wouldn't trade my Wranglers for the finest gaberdine. Lord, I've got country in my genes. I've got country in my genes, country in my blood. It goes back generations. It's something I'm proud of. It's something I was born with, what you get is what you see. I'm just an old hillybilly with a country song to sing. Lord, I've got country in my genes. I've got country in my genes, country in my blood. It goes back generations. It's something I'm proud of. It's something I was born with, what you get is what you see. I'm an old Kentucky hillybilly with a country song to sing. Lord, I've got country in my genes. Lord, I've got country in my genes. |

I don't want your lonely mansion with a tear in every room
All I want's the love you promised beneath the hallow moon But you think I should be happy with your money and your name And hide myself in sorrow while you play your cheating game. Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine And I dare never drown my sorrow's in the warm glow of your wine You can't buy my love with money for I never was that kind Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine. Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine And I dare not drown my sorrow's in the warm glow of your wine You can't buy my love with money for I never was that kind Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine. Silver threads and golden needles cannot mend this heart of mine... |

(Oh mama why did God take my daddy?)
('Cause I'd been good just like he said to be) (I heard daddy pray, dear Lord don't take me from them) (Oh mama, why did God take him from me?) Come here son, you've asked mama somethin' That's even hard for me to understand For there's one thing I do know Daddy wouldn't wanna see those tears in the eyes of this big man. So stop cryin' now and listen real careful To every word mama has to say, you see son God picks the sweetest most beautiful flowers that grow And he makes them the brightest shiniest stars that glow. Now daddy talked with the Lord every day And daddy and God'll be real close So let's just say it seems that God takes The ones he loves the most. (Oh mama, why did God take my daddy?) Son you haven't heard a word that mama said So come on now let's say your prayers And mama tuck you in bed. And we must have questioned God 'Cause he already has everything planned And honey daddy can't ever come back to us Though we can go to him. (Oh mama, why did God take him from me?)... |

Everybody wants to go to Heaven
But nobody wants to die Everybody wants to go to Heaven But nobody wants to die Once upon a time there lived a man And his name was Isaac He walked with God, both day and night But he didn't wanna die He cried, "Oh Lord, please let me live Death is close, I know" God smiled down on Isaac And gave him fifteen years to go Everybody wants to go to Heaven But nobody wants to die Lord, I wanna go to Heaven But I don't wanna die So, I long for the day when I'll have new birth Still I love the livin' here on Earth Everybody wants to go to Heaven But nobody wants to die When Jesus lived here on this Earth He knew his father's plan He knew that he must give his life To save the soul of man When Judas had betrayed him His father heard him cry He was brave until his death But he didn't wanna die Everybody wants to go to Heaven But nobody wants to die Lord, I wanna go to Heaven But I don't wanna die So, I long for the day when I'll have new birth Still, I love the livin' here on Earth Everybody wants to go to Heaven But nobody wants to die Everybody wants to go to Heaven But nobody wants to die |

One of my fondest memories
Was sittin' on my daddy's knee Listenin' to the stories that he told He'd pull out that old photograph Like a treasured memory from the past And say, "Child this, here's the Van Lear rose" Oh how it would bring a smile When he talked about her big blue eyes And how her beauty ran down to her soul She'd walk across the coal miner's yard Them miner's would yell loud and hard And they'd dream of who would hold The Van Lear rose She was the belle of Johnson county Ohio river to big sandy A beauty to behold like a diamond in the coal All the miner's they would gather 'round Talk about the man that came to town Right under their nose Stole the heart of the Van Lear rose Now the Van Lear rose could've had her pick And all the fellers figured rich Until' this poor boy caught her eye His buddies would all laugh and say Your dreaming boy, she'll never look your way You'll never ever hold the Van Lear rose She was the belle of Johnson county Ohio river to big sandy A beauty to behold like a diamond in the coal All the miner's they would gather 'round Talk about the man that came to town Right under their nose Stole the heart of the Van Lear rose Then one night in mid July Underneath that ol' blue Kentucky sky Well, that poor boy won that beauty's heart Then my daddy would look at my mommy and smile As he brushed the hair back from my eyes and he'd say Your mama, she's the Van Lear rose She was the belle of Johnson county Ohio river to big sandy A beauty to behold like a diamond in the coal All the miner's they would gather 'round Talk about the man that came to town Right under their nose Stole the heart of the Van Lear rose Right under their nose Stole the heart of the Van Lear rose |

I was 11 months old, I was just startin' to walk
And daddy always kept, a big stick behind the door Just in case somebody was to come in That was drunk on moonshine You know and daddy had to do something about it Anyway, this woman, we called her old Aunt Boyd She come in and she was telling mommy about her Uh, husband, she thinks is going out with this woman in Paintsville So she reared back with that big stick Showing mommy how she was going To hit this woman in the head with it And when she went back with it, she hit me in the head And Mommy said, I cried for 5 days And she said I, that fifth night I had a great big knot that show up Right in the middle of my forehead And, you know, the only thing I remember I don't remember no pain, but I just remember mommy And daddy carrying me in this old quilt That Mommy had made out of overhalls The knots kept getting bigger and bigger And she took me to the doctor And that stuff called mesitor, something like that Mommy said it made both ears Flat to my face and I ain't got very big ears And them, told Mommy That I would that I was going to die And that happened like four times So I didn't walk till I was almost 5 It was, it was kind of a mess Oh, I forgot about the shoes Well, shoot, I hadn't, I'd never had a pair of shoes And Mommy had went, took me to the hospital You know, to see what that was If they couldn't do something, but they wouldn't keep me Because Mommy and Daddy didn't have no money They just tell 'em to take me home and let me die, you know Because there wasn't nothing they could do about That kind of disease, I guess And, um, mommy told daddy, says, "Ted, you take her Down the street, you carry her down the street" And said, "Let me try this store here" And Mommy went in and told them the story that I was dying That she had to carry me twelve miles to town And twelve miles back and that I had no shoes That place, I think it was Murphy's 5 and 10 And they're still there in Paintsville, Kentucky And I think that they told Mommy That they wasn't in business to give shoes away Mommy told daddy, says, "Carry Loretta on down a little farther" Said, "And let me stop in another store" And Mommy went right back to the same store When the guy's back was turned she stole these little red shoes And I remember on the big'old bridge that went across the river It went way up high and was I've always been scared of that bridge That took me across the big Sandy River Mommy pulled them out from under That yellow jacket that she was wearing And she was putting them red shoes on me And I thought them was the prettiest things I ever saw in my life And daddy started crying and I wondered why And he said, "Clerie, we're not going to make it home" And mommy put the shoes on me and daddy took off running And run all the way ahead t'Butcher Holler with me And Mommy never had a chance to carry me any farther And that's almost twelve miles that daddy run with me But daddy knew that the cops was going to get us He left Mommy standing and he took off in a dead run I remember him running but I didn't know what for And I remember asking mommy, "Mommy, why is Daddy running?" I remember her hollering, "To put your little red shoes away Honey, when you get home" Can you believe that? So I wrote a song called "Put My Little Red Shoes Away" You know, they're my little red shoes And I don't want 'em to get to be dirty |

Why, I've heard people say
Why is this tree bent? Why they don't have God enough to know? Thats' the way that it was meant Why is this little baby born All twisted and out of shape? We're not to question what he does 'Cause God makes no mistakes Why, I've heard people say Why is my child blind? Why is that old drunk still livin' When a daddy like mine is dyin'? Our blessed Father gives us life Has the power to take it away There's no reason for what he does God makes no mistakes Why, I've heard people say God cannot be alive And all the things that people say Has to be a lie When they're down and out And they need a hand And their very souls at stake If they'll call on him and just believe God makes no mistakes |

I'm in a womens prison
With bars all around I caught my darlin' cheatin' That's when I shot him down. I caught him in a honky tonk With a girl I used to know The door to my cell is open wide And a voice cries out, oh no. The judge says I'm guilty My sentence is to die I know I've been forgiven But the price of love is high. The crowd outside screamin' Let that murderer die But above all their voices I can hear my mama cry. I'm sittin' here on the death row And Lord, I've lost my mind For love I've killed my darlin' And for love I'll lose my life. I can hear the warden coming From the pinging of his keys But when they come to get me They'll hafta drag me off my knees. The door to my cell swings open It's time for me to go The priest is reading my last rights He says, dyin's part of livin', ya know. There's a crowd outside screamin' Let that murderer fry But above all their voices You can hear my mama cry. Now they've strapped me in the chair And covered up my eyes And the last voice that I hear on earth Is my mama's cry. Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me I once was lost but now I'm found Was blind but now I see... |

GETHSEMANE
WRITERS B.L. SMITH, W.B. WALDROP Toll no bell for me Father But let this cup of suffering pass from me Send me no shepherd to heal my world But the Angel - the dream foretold Prayed more than thrice for you to see The wolf of loneliness in me Not my own will but Yours be done. You wake up where's the tomb? Will Easter come, enter my room? The Lord weeps with me But my tears fall for you. Another Beauty Loved by a Beast Another tale of infinite dreams Your eyes they were my paradise Your smile made my sun rise. Forgive me for I don't know what I gain Alone in this garden of pain Enchantment has but one truth: I weep to have what I fear to lose. You wake up where's the tomb? Will Easter come, enter my room? The Lord weeps with me But my tears fall for you. I knew you never before I see you never more But the love the pain the hope O beautiful one Have made you mine 'till all my years are done. Without you The poetry within me is dead... |

I once was lost in sin but Jesus took me in
And then a little light from heaven filled my soul He bathed my heart in love and wrote my name above And just a little talk with my Jesus made me whole (Now let us) have a little talk with Jesus (let us) tell him all about our troubles (He will) hear our faintest cry (and we will) answer by and by (Now when you) feel a little prayer wheel turning (Then you'll) know a little fire is burning (You will) find a little talk with Jesus makes it right (Now let us) have a little talk I may have doubts and fears my eyes be filled with tears But Jesus is a friend who watches day and night I go to him in prayer he knows my every care And just a little talk with my Jesus gonna makes it right (Now let us) have a little talk (Makes it right) |

Ever since you left me I've done nothing but wrong.
Many nights I've layed awake and cried. We was so happy. My heart was in a whirl, But now I'm a honky tonk girl. So turn that jukebox way up high, And fill my glass up while I cry. I've lost everything in this world, And now I'm a honky tonk girl. I just can't make a right with all of my wrongs, Every evening of my life seems so long, I'm sorry and ashamed for all these things you see, But losing him has made a fool of me. So fill my glass up to the rim, To lose my memory of him, I've lost everything in this world, And now I'm a Honky Tonk Girl |

We used to go out walkin' hand in hand
You told me of the big things you had planned It wasn't long till all your dreams came true Success put me in second place with you You have no time to love me anymore Since fame and fortune knocked upon our door Now I spend all my evenings all alone Success has made a failure of our home [ fiddle - steel ] If we could share an evening now and then Perhaps we'd find true happiness again You'll never hold me like you used to do It's funny what success has done to you You have no time to love me... |

I just can't get it through my head
You love another now instead Can't make myself believe we're really through. I'm walking up and down the hall, talking to the silent wall I'll lose my mind before I'm over you. I think I've almost lost my mind I think about you all the time I'm going crazy yes I know and I don't have far to go The way you treat me is a shame but I'll keep loving you the same I'll lose my mind before I'm over you. I keep your letters, I should burn, I wear your ring, I should return But there's a million foolish things I do It makes me cry but you would laugh to know I kiss your photograph I'll lose my mind before I'm over you. I think I've almost lost my mind I think about you all the time I'm going crazy yes I know and I don't have far to go The way you treat me is a shame but I'll keep loving you the same I'll lose my mind before I'm over you... |

You left me for the bright lights of the town. A country boy set out to see the world. Remember when those city lights shine down. That big old moon shines on your Kentucky girl. I swear I love you, by the moon above you. How bright is it shining in your world? Some morning when you wake up all alone. Just come on home to your blue Kentucky girl. Don't wait to bring great riches home to me. I need no diamond rings or fancy pearls. Just bring yourself, you're all I'll ever need. That's good enough for this blue Kentucky girl. I swear I love you by the moon above you. How bright is it shinin in your world? Some morning when you wake up all alone. Just come on home to your blue Kentucky girl. |

And tonight I write to you through tears with a trembling hand My darling answered when he got that call from you You said you really need him but you don't need him like I do Don't misunderstand I know he's fighting for our land I really love my country but I also love my man He proudly wears the colors of the old red white and blue While I wear a heartache since he left me for you [ trumpet ] Dear Uncle Sam I just got your telegram And I can't believe that this is me shaking like I am For it said I'm sorry to inform you |

Your spell is on my baby and you've got me sorrow bound You don't really love him you're playin' around for fun Woman of the world leave my world alone You're the devil's woman that's what my man don't know Why I wear more in swimmin' than you wear to parties where you go There's a place I know where you should go for that's where you belong Woman of the world leave my world alone I don't know about the things the bright lights taught to you My country boy don't know them any better than I do I'll have to watch him hurtin' after you are gone Woman of the world leave my world alone You're the devil's woman... |

The man I've got loves cleaned up home and he likes to wear the breeches
He don't like doin' women things like washin' clothes and dishes You'll find he's not that hard to please if you love him right and fill his needs To make a man feel like a man you gotta show him you're a woman Show him what you are you know you can do it Don't let some other woman come along and beat you to it Lots of girls might catch his eye but what is a girl when a woman falls by To make a man feel like a man you gotta show him you're a woman [ guitar + steel ] When he comes home from a hard day's work he's probably tired and dirty Don't let him find a slouchy queen have your castle lookin' pretty There's lots of things that you shouldn't do like just as many that you should do too To make a man feel like a man you gotta show him you're a woman Show him what you are...

Well, I was born a coal miner's daughter, In a cabin, on a hill in butcher holler, We were poor, but we had love, That's the one thing daddy made sure of, He shoveled coal to make a poor man's dollar. My daddy worked all night in the Van Lear Cole Mines, All day long in a field a-hoein' corn, Mommy rocked the babies at night, and read The Bible by the coal-oil light, And everything would start all over come break of mornin'. Daddy loved and raised 8 kids on a miner' pay, Mommy scrubbed our clothes on a wash board every day, Why, I seen her fingers bleed, to complain, there was no need, She'd smile in mommy's understanding way. In the summertime we didn't have shoes to wear, But in the winter time, we'd all get a brand new pair, From a mail-order catalog, money mad from selling a hog, Daddy all ways managed to get the money somewhere. Yeah, I'm proud to be a coal miner's daughter, I remember well, the well where I drew water, The work we done was hard, at night we'd sleep 'cause we were tired, I never thought of leavin' Butcher Holler. Well, a lot of things have changed since way back then, And it's so good to be back home again, Not much left but the floor, nothin' lives here anymore, 'Cept the memories of a coal miner's daughter. |

Miniskirts, hot pants And a few little fancy frills Yeah, I'm makin' up for all those years Since I've got the pill. I'm tired of all your crowin' How you and your hens play While holdin' a couple in my arms Another's on the way. This chicken's done tore up her nest And I'm ready to make a deal And ya can't afford to turn it down 'Cause you know I've got the pill. This incubator is overused Because you've kept it filled The feelin' good comes easy now Since I've got the pill. It's gettin' dark it's roostin' time Tonight's too good to be real Oh, but daddy don't you worry none 'Cause mama's got the pill. Oh, daddy don't you worry none 'Cause mama's got the pill... |

I've seen him as he awakens in the morning
He reaches out his hand and without a word As his fingers softly fall upon my face He lights the flame of desire and makes me want him And love is the foundation we lean on All you need is love to ease your mind And does it have to be right to be called love When he gives me more loving Then a lifetime of looking could ever find And love is the foundation we lean on All you need is love to ease your mind And does it have to be right to be called love When he gives me more loving Then a lifetime of looking could ever find |

I wasn't much more than a baby I thought he was a bear
The way my daddy carried me around They said I learned to walk while holdin' on to just one finger On the hand of a man that stands at six-foot-three Not old enough to understand the meaning of depression Just something people talked about a lot My daddy wasn't one that tried to make no big impressions Just one heck of a man that worked for what he got They don't make men like my daddy anymore Guess they've thrown away the pattern through the years In a great big land of freedom at a time we really need 'em They don't make 'em like my daddy anymore From the Johnson County coal camps to the hills of West Virginia My daddy hauled the timber for the mines Education didn't count so much as what you had born in you Like the will to live and a dream of better times Daddy never took a handout we ate pinto beans a bacon But he worked to keep the wolf back from the door And it only proves one thing to me when folks start belly achin' They don't make 'em like my daddy anymore They don't make men...

Sometimes at night while you're fast asleep
I lie there alone in the darkness and weep So sorry and sad but that's part of the deal when the tingle becomes a chill I never wanted to stop loving you I'll swear by the breath in my body that's true Ah but a woman can't help the way that she feels when the tingle becomes a chill You're so contented but for me it's all gone And though I pretend you just don't turn me on The body performs but the soul has no will when the tingle becomes a chill I never wanted to stop loving you... |

Before you first made love to me you called me your wife to be
And after that I saw the devil in your eyes With your sweet smooth talkin' ways you turned a flame into a blaze Then I'd've let you hang my wings upon your horns. Don't tell me that I'm no saint I'm the first to know I ain't There's a little thing called love and that's what change me From an innocent country girl to a woman of the world Tonight I let you hang my wings upon your horns. You hung my wings upon your horns and turned my halo in the thorns And turned me to a woman I can't stand You're the first who ever make me fall in love and then not take me Tonight I let you hang my wings upon your horns. You hung my wings upon your horns and turned my halo in the thorns And turned me to a woman I can't stand You're the first who ever make me fall in love and then not take me Tonight I let you hang my wings upon your horns... |

Well, I was born a coal miner's daughter, In a cabin, on a hill in butcher holler, We were poor, but we had love, That's the one thing daddy made sure of, He shoveled coal to make a poor man's dollar. My daddy worked all night in the Van Lear Cole Mines, All day long in a field a-hoein' corn, Mommy rocked the babies at night, and read The Bible by the coal-oil light, And everything would start all over come break of mornin'. Daddy loved and raised 8 kids on a miner' pay, Mommy scrubbed our clothes on a wash board every day, Why, I seen her fingers bleed, to complain, there was no need, She'd smile in mommy's understanding way. In the summertime we didn't have shoes to wear, But in the winter time, we'd all get a brand new pair, From a mail-order catalog, money mad from selling a hog, Daddy all ways managed to get the money somewhere. Yeah, I'm proud to be a coal miner's daughter, I remember well, the well where I drew water, The work we done was hard, at night we'd sleep 'cause we were tired, I never thought of leavin' Butcher Holler. Well, a lot of things have changed since way back then, And it's so good to be back home again, Not much left but the floor, nothin' lives here anymore, 'Cept the memories of a coal miner's daughter. |

Love is where you find it
When you find no love at home And there's nothin' cold as ashes After the fire is gone The bottle is almost empty The clock just now struck ten Darlin' I had to call you To our favorite place again We know it's wrong for us to meet But the fire's gone out at home And there's nothin' cold as ashes After the fire is gone Love is where you find it When you find no love at home And there's nothin' cold as ashes After the fire is gone Your lips are warm and tender Your arms hold me just right Sweet words of love you remember That the one at home forgot Each time we say is the last time But we keep hangin' on And there's nothin' cold as ashes After the fire is gone Love is find it When you find no love at home And there's nothin' cold as ashes After the fire is gone |

Well I like my lovin' done country style
And this little girl would walk a country mile, To find her a good old slow-talkin country boy I said a country boy I'm about as old-fashion as I can be And I hope you're likin' what you see 'Cause if you're lookin' at me You're lookin' at country. (CHORUS) You don't see no city when you look at me "Cause, country's all I am I love runnin bare naked through the old corn fields And I love that country Ham-ha-ham Well, you say I'm made just to fit your plans But does a barnyard shovel fit your hands If your eyes are on me You're lookin' at country This here country is a little green And there's alot of country that-a you ain't seen I'll show you around if you'll show me a wedding band I said a weddin' band When it comes to love, well, I know about that Country folks all know where it's at If you're lookin' at me Your lookin' at country (REPEAT CHORUS) |

You wined me and dined me
When I was your girl Promised if I'd be your wife You'd show me the world But all I've seen of this old world Is a bed and a doctor bill I'm tearin' down your brooder house 'Cause now I've got the pill. All these years I've stayed at home While you had all your fun And every year thats gone by Another babys come. There's a gonna be some changes made Right here on nursery hill You've set this chicken your last time 'Cause now I've got the pill. This old maternity dress I've got Is goin' in the garbage The clothes I'm wearin' from now on Won't take up so much yardage. Miniskirts, hot pants And a few little fancy frills Yeah, I'm makin' up for all those years Since I've got the pill. I'm tired of all your crowin' How you and your hens play While holdin' a couple in my arms Another's on the way. This chicken's done tore up her nest And I'm ready to make a deal And ya can't afford to turn it down 'Cause you know I've got the pill. This incubator is overused Because you've kept it filled The feelin' good comes easy now Since I've got the pill. It's gettin' dark it's roostin' time Tonight's too good to be real Oh, but daddy don't you worry none 'Cause mama's got the pill. Oh, daddy don't you worry none 'Cause mama's got the pill... |

Sometimes at night while you're fast asleep
I lie there alone in the darkness and weep So sorry and sad but that's part of the deal when the tingle becomes a chill I never wanted to stop loving you I'll swear by the breath in my body that's true Ah but a woman can't help the way that she feels when the tingle becomes a chill You're so contented but for me it's all gone And though I pretend you just don't turn me on The body performs but the soul has no will when the tingle becomes a chill I never wanted to stop loving you... |

He doesn't know that I can't look him in the eyes
For that I can't speak or I'll start tellin' lies I hope he thinks that I'm just moody and quiet But another man loved me last night. Yes, another man loved me last night I'd almost forgotten what love was really like But I'm only human, only a woman I let another man love me last night. While he's sleepin', well, I'm crying here awake Not being loved was more than I could take So it was wrong, there in his arms, it seemed so right When another man loved me last night. Yes, another man loved me last night I'd almost forgotten what love was really like But I'm only human, only a woman I let another man love me last night... |

You came from the city streets to my little country town
Your spell is on my baby and you've got me sorrow bound You don't really love him you're playin' around for fun Woman of the world leave my world alone You're the devil's woman that's what my man don't know Why I wear more in swimmin' than you wear to parties where you go There's a place I know where you should go for that's where you belong Woman of the world leave my world alone I don't know about the things the bright lights taught to you My country boy don't know them any better than I do I'll have to watch him hurtin' after you are gone Woman of the world leave my world alone You're the devil's woman... |

Once I made a promise that I'd never lead you on
But I feel the yearn to love you even though I know it's wrong You'll have to take my hand and lead me slowly through the door I'll be wrong in what I'm doin' I can't refuse you anymore Lead me on and take control of how I feel I can't do this on my own cause it's against my will I need love warm and tender in a way I've never known If you want me I'll go with you but you'll have to lead me on [ steel ] Lead me on and take control... |

I've seen him as he awakens in the morning
He reaches out his hand and without a word As his fingers softly fall upon my face He lights the flame of desire and makes me want him And love is the foundation we lean on All you need is love to ease your mind And does it have to be right to be called love When he gives me more loving Then a lifetime of looking could ever find And love is the foundation we lean on All you need is love to ease your mind And does it have to be right to be called love When he gives me more loving Then a lifetime of looking could ever find |
