Hey sweet baby are you ready for me
It's your good rockin' mama down from Tennessee
I'm just out of Austin bound for San Antone
With the radio blastin' and the bird dog on.

There's a speed trap up ahead in Selma town
But no local yokel gonna shut me down
'Cause me and my boys got this rig unwound
And we've come a thousand miles from a guitar town.

Well, nothin' ever happened round my hometown
And I ain't the kind to just hang around
But I heard someone callin' my name one day
And I followed that voice down the lost highway.

Well, everybody told me you can't get far
On 37 dollars and a jap guitar
And a rockin' little combo from the guitar town.

Hey pretty baby don't you know it ain't my fault
I like to hear the steel belts hummin' on the asphalt
Wake up in the middle of the night in a truck stop
Stumble in the restaurant wonderin' why I don't stop.

Gotta keep rockin' while I still can
I gotta two pack habit and a motel tan
But when my boots hit the boards I'm a brand new man
With my back to the riser I make my stand.

Hey pretty baby won't you hold me tight
We're loadin' up and rollin' out of here tonight
Well, one of these days I'm gonna settle down
And take you back with me to the guitar town...

. . .


If you loved me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
You're nice to me when there's no one else around
You only build me up to let me down.

If you missed me half as much as I miss you
You wouldn't stay away half as much as you do
I know that I would never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you.

Well if you loved me half as much as I love you
You wouldn't worry me half as much as you do
If you missed me half as much as I miss you
You wouldn't stay away half as much as you do.

I know that I would never be this blue
If you only loved me half as much as I love you.

If you only loved me half as much as I love you...

The cattle are prowling
The coyotes are howling
Out with the doggies bawl
Where spurs are jinglin'
A cowboy is singin'
This lonesome cattle call.

He rides in the sun
Till his day's work is done
And he rounds up the cattle each fall
Singin' this cattle call.

For hours he will ride
On the range far and wide
As the night wind blows up a squall
His heart is a feather
In all kinds of weather
He sings his cattle call.

He's brown as a berry
From riding the prairie
And he sings with an old western drawl
Singin' this cattle call...

. . .


Well, you ask me if I'll forget my baby I guess I will someday
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way
Well, you ask me if I'll get along I guess I will someway
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

Well, God gave me that man to lean on
Then he put me on my way
Heaven help me be strong and have the strenght to carry on
Well, I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

You ask me if I'll miss her kisses I guess I will everyday
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way
Well you ask me if I'll find another I don't know I can't say
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

Well God gave me that man to lean on
Then he put me on my way
Heaven help me be strong and have the strenght to carry on
Well, I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.

I don't like it but I guess things happen that way.
I don't like it but I guess things happen that way...

Let us pause in life's pleasures and count her many tears
While we all sup sorrow with the poor
There's a song that will linger forever in our ears
Oh hard times come again no more.

It's a song the sigh of the weary hard times
Hard times come again no more
Many days you have lingered all around my door
Oh, hard times come again no more.

Though we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay
There are frail forms fainting at the door
Though their voices are silent their pleading looks will say
Oh hard times come again no more.

It's a song the sigh of the weary hard times
Hard times come again no more
Many days you have lingered all around my door
Oh, hard times come again no more.

There's a pale young maiden who foils her life away
With a worn out heart whose better days are o'er
Though her voice it would be singing it's sighing all the day
Oh hard times come again no more.

It's a song the sigh of the weary hard times
Hard times come again no more
Many days you have lingered all around my door
Oh, hard times come again no more.

Oh, hard times come again no more...

There's a place out on the edge of town, sir
Rising above the factories and fields
Now, ever since I was a child I can remember
That mansion on the hill

In the day, you can see the children playing
On a road that leads to those gates of hardened steel
Steel gates that completely surround, sir
That mansion on the hill

At night, my daddy'd take me and we'd ride
Through the streets of a town so silent and still
Park on a back road along the highway signs, sir
Look up at the mansion on the hill

In the summer, all the lights would shine
There'd be music playing people laughing all the time
Me and my brother, we'd lie down in the tall cornfields, sir
Sit and listen to the mansion on the hill

Tonight down here in Linden town
I watch the cars rushing by, home from the mill
There's a beautiful full moon rising
Above the mansion on the hill

For many long years I've played a lone hand
I rode my horse in many strange lands
Until one day I stopped for awhile
For two blue eyes and a sunny smile.

So howl away you old coyote
I hear your sad and lonesome song
You're calling me back to old Montana
Back to those hills where I belong.

One day I rode away from home
I'm a travelling back and it won't be long
I'll see you again in a little while
You're my darling sweet, my welcome smile.

So howl away you old coyote
I hear your sad and lonesome song
You're calling me back to old Montana
Back to those hills where I belong.

So howl away you old coyote
I hear your sad and lonesome song
You're calling me back to old Montana
Back to those hills where I belong...

Like strangers that's what we are, darling
How can lovers pull apart so far
Like strangers how can it be
Only days ago we loved so tenderly.

I love you truly I do and I hope
Deep in your heart you love me too.

Let's forget that we've been angry
Let's be lovers like before
And swear not to be
Like strangers anymore.

Like strangers that's what we are, darling
How can lovers pull apart so far
Like strangers how can it be
Only days ago we loved so tenderly.

Let's forget that we've been angry
Let's be lovers like before
And swear not to be
Like strangers anymore...

Just about a year ago
I sat out on the road
Seeking my fame and fortune
Looking for a pot of gold.

Things got bad
And things got worse
I guess you know the tune
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again.

Came in on the Greyhound
I'll be walking out if I go
I was just passin' through
Must been seven months or more.

Ran out of time and money
It looks like
They took my friends
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again.

Well, the man from the magazine
He said, I was on my way
Somewhere I lost connection
And ran out of songs to play.

I came into town
A one night stand
It looks like my plans fell through
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again.

Well, if I only had a dollar
For every song I've sung
Every time I've had to play
While people sat there drunk

You know I'd catch
The next train back
To where I lived
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again.

Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again.
Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again...

. . .


Those lives were mine to love and cherish
To guard and guide along life's way
Oh God, forbid that one should perish
That one alas should go astray.

Back in the years with all together
Around the place we'd romp and play
So lonely now and oft times wonder
Oh, will they come back home some day.

I'm lonesome for my precious children
They live so far away
Oh, may they hear my calling, calling
And come back home some day.

I gave my all for my dear children
Their problems still with love, I share
I'd brave life's storm, defy the tempest
To bring them home from anywhere.

I lived my life, my love I gave them
To guide them through this world of strife
I hope and pray we'll live together
In that great glad here after life.

I'm lonesome for my precious children
They live so far away
Oh, may they hear my calling, calling
And come back home some day...

. . .


If I could be there
I'd be there tonight comforting you
This road I'm on is so far away, too far away
If God would grant me wings to fly
I'd be in your arms by and by
If I could be there
I'd be there tonight comforting you.

If I could be there
I'd look in your eyes and say I love you
These hills and highways between us
Now keep us apart
If God would grant me wings to fly
I'd be in your arms by and by
If I could be there
I'd look in your eyes and say I love you.

If I could be there
I wouldn't have this pain in my heart
Tomorrow I'll wake up with joy for the day, joy for the day
If God would grant me wings to fly
I'd be in your arms by and by
If I could be there
I wouldn't have this pain in my heart.

If I could be there...

The wind is blowing across the mountain
Down on the valley way below
It sweeps the grave of my darling
When I die that's where I want to go.

Lord, send the angels for my darling
And take him to that home on high
I'll wait my time out here on earth love
And come to you when I die.

I hear a voice out in the darkness
It moans and whispers through the pines
I know it's my sweetheart a calling
I hear him through the walls of time.

Lord, send the angels for my darling
And take him to that home on high
I'll wait my time out here on earth love
And come to you when I die.

Our names are carved upon a tombstone
I promised you before you died
Our love would bloom forever darling
When we rest side by side.

Lord, send the angels for my darling
And take him to that home on high
I'll wait my time out here on earth love
And come to you when I die...

Well, get up John, go down to Jordan
Get up John, prepare the way
Man from Galilee is waitin'
You must meet him there today.

Get up John, go tell my people
This will be a Holy day
Tell them of the Jew that's waiting
That the Saviour's on the way.

John you've been chosen
John go unafraid
John I'll go with you
John The Baptist, this is the day.

Well, get up John, go tell Jerusalem
Saviour's waiting on the shore
Baptize Him in the River Jordan
I'll send a dove from Heaven's door.

John you've been chosen
John go unafraid
John I'll go with you
John The Baptist, this is the day.

Well, get up John your work is finished
daylight breaks, the soldiers come
You will die for me tomorrow
Welcome home, your race is run.

John you've been chosen
John go unafraid
John I'll go with you
John The Baptist, this is the day...

It's a Hard Life Wherever You Go


I am a backseat driver from America
They drive to the left on falls road
And the man at the wheels name is Shamus
We pass a the child on a corner he knows.

And Shamus says now what chance has that kid got
And I say from the back I don't know
He says there's barbed wire at all of these exits
There ain't no place in Belfast for that kid to go.

And it's a hard life, it's a hard life
It's a very hard life, it's a hard life wherever you go
And we poison our children with hatred
And the hard life is all that they know.

At the dairy-line in Chicago
A fat man in front of me
He's calling black people trash to his children
He's the only trash here I see.

And I'm thinking this man wears a white hood
In the night when his children should sleep
But they'll slip to their windows and see him
They'll think that white hood's all they need.

And it's a hard life, it's a hard life
It's a very hard life, it's a hard life wherever you go
And we poison our children with hatred
And the hard life is all that they know.

I was a child of the sixties
When dreams could be held through tears
With Disney and Cronkite and Martin Luther
And I believed, I believed, I believed.

Now I'm a backseat driver from America
And I'm not at the wheel of control
And I am guilty, I am worn, I am the root of all evil
And I can't drive on the left side of the road.

And it's a hard life, it's a hard life
It's a very hard life, it's a hard life wherever you go
And we poison our children with hatred
And the hard life is all that they know.

And there ain't no place in this world for these kids to go
'Cause it's a hard life wherever you go...



Abraham, Martin And John


Has anybody here seen my old friend Abraham
Can you tell me where he's gone
He freed a lotta people but it seems the good die young
I just looked around and he's gone.

Has anybody here seen my old friend Martin
Can you tell me where he's gone
He freed a lotta people but it seems the good die young
I just looked around and he's gone.

Has anybody here seen my old friend John
Can you tell me where he's gone
He freed a lotta people but it seems the good die young
I just looked around and he's gone.

Didn't you love the things they stood for
Didn't they try to find some good
In you and me and we'll be free
Someday soon it's gonna be one day.

Has anybody here seen my old friend Bobby
can you tell me where he's gone
I thought I saw him walking up over the hill
With Abraham and Martin and John...

. . .


(Alan Rose - Don Helms)

One day the train was passin' a coalin' crawlin' by
To look this old world over under God blue sky
My darling stood there weeping as I was looking back
I kissed my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track.

Goodbye, so long, until I come back home you'll be my dream
Goodbye, so long, there's lots of places that I've never seen
I'll always be a drifter but I'll be driftin' back
To where I left you cryin' in the smoke along the track.

I like to keep on goin' it helps me when I'm blue
I get the urge to travel that's all I want to do
I know I just can't settle down because I like to roam
And when I hear that whistle blow I've gotta move along.

Goodbye, so long, there's something down the track keeps calling me
Goodbye, so long, I guess that's just the way I'll always be
So when I get that feeling don't try to hold me back
I'll only leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track.

I know my baby loves me I love my baby too
But he don't understand me when I'm feeling blue
And when I hear that whistle blow I hurry home and pack
And leave my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track.

Goodbye, so long, I hate to leave you but I've gotta go
Goodbye, so long, it's coming now just heard the whistle blow
It'll be here in a man that you wave and all look back
I'm gonna leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track.

Goodbye so long until I come back home you'll be my dream
Goodbye, so long, there's lots of places that I've never seen
I'll always be a drifter but I'll be driftin' back
To where I left you cryin' in the smoke along the track.

Oh, I left you cryin' in the smoke along the track...
