Was it something I did, Lord, a lifetime ago?
Am I just now repaying a debt that I owe?
Justice sweet justice you travel so slow.
But you can't change my love for the rose.

. . .


There's a bird in the sky
Flying high, flying high
To a place from a place
Changing skies, changing skies
There are clouds in the sky
Clouds of fear and despair
But love like ours never dies
Changing skies, changing skies

[ guitar ]

Little bird have you heard
Freedom lies, freedom lies
But love like ours never dies
Just changing skies, changing skies

. . .


He was Tougher Than Leather,
And he didn't care whether,
The sun shined or not.
When a young kid from Cow Town,
Wanted a showdown,
And he was careless or just maybe forgot.

But he died in the gunfight,
Blinded by sunlight:
Never draw when you're facin' the sun.
And old Tougher Than Leather,
Just carved one more notch on his gun.

And when he turned to go,
The beautiful maiden knelt down,
Where her dead sweetheart lay.
And on his breast, placed a rose,
While the townspeople stared in dismay.

And old Tougher Than Leather,
Should've known better,
But he picked up the rose in his hand.
And the townspeople froze,
When his hands crushed the rose,
And the rose petals fell in the sand.

And old Tougher Than Leather,
Was a full-time go-getter.
The grass never grew beneath his feet.
From one town to another,
He would ride like the wind,
But his mind kept going back to the street.

Where a young cowboy died,
And a young maiden cried,
And rose petals fell in the sand.
And his heart had been softened,
By the beautiful maid,
And he knew he must see her again.

Well he went back to the town,
Where it all had come down,
And he searched but his search was in vain.
He had wanted to find her,
And say he was sorry,
For causing her heart so much pain.

But one night he died,
From a poison inside,
Brought on by the wrong he had done.
And old Tougher Than Leather,
Had carved his last notch on his gun.

Well he was burried in Cow Town,
Along about sundown,
Lookin' good in his new store-bought clothes.
When the young maiden came over,
And knelt down beside him,
And on his lapel placed a rose.

There's a bird in the sky,
Flying high, flying high,
To a place from a place,
Changing skies, changing skies.

There's just a little fashioned karma coming down
Just a little old fashioned justice going round
A little bit of sowing and a little bit of reaping
A little bit of laughing and a little bit of weeping
Just a little old fashioned karma coming down
Coming down coming down just a little old fashioned karma coming down
It really ain't hard to understand
If you're gonna dance you gotta pay the band
It's just a little old fashioned karma coming down

[ fiddle - guitar - harmonica - piano ]

There's just a little fashioned karma...

. . .


Somewhere in Texas
A cowboy dreams of the days
When the buffalo roamed
And he wished he had lived then
Cause he knew that he could have been
The best cowboy
The world had ever known
He went dancing that night
With his San Antone rose
The one he would marry someday
To the music of Bob Wills
And polkas and waltzes
While beautiful time passed away

. . .

The Beer Barrel Polka

[Нет текста]

. . .


A short time I have to be with you, my love
But a short time is better than no time, you see
So I bring to you all my posessions
And would that you'd share them with me

I bring one springtime of robins
One springtime of robins to sing
I bring you one summer of roses
One summer of roses I bring

I bring you the dry leaves of autumn
Dry leaves will be helpful, you know
To soften the fall of your snowflakes
When I bring you your winter of snow

. . .


Going home in this pickup
Not knowing this stickup
Was in progress
On the same side of town
By a man in a truck
The same kind he was driving
Bad karma was soon coming down
Before the store owner died
He had tried to describe
The man who had shot him that day
And he described to a letter
The innocent cowboy
So he tried him and sent him away

. . .


Was it something I did, Lord, a lifetime ago?
Am I just now repaying a debt that I owe?
Justice sweet justice you travel so slow.
But you can't change my love for the rose.

. . .


Within my prison cell so dreary
Alone I sit alone with aching heart
I'm dreaming of my little darling
From her forever I must part

The rose she sent me as a token
She sent it just to light my gloom
And tell me that her heart is broken
And cheer me before I meet my doom

The judge would not believe my story
The jury said I have to pay
And with the rose in all its glory
Not guilty's all that I could say

Goodbye sweetheart for in the morning
To meet my Maker I must go
And when I die at daylight's dawning
Against my heart they'll find this rose

[ guitar ]

Within my prison cell so dreary...

. . .


There's a bird in the sky
Flying high, flying high
To a place from a place
Changing skies, changing skies
There are clouds in the sky
Clouds of fear and despair
But love like ours never dies
Changing skies, changing skies

[ guitar ]

Little bird have you heard
Freedom lies, freedom lies
But love like ours never dies
Just changing skies, changing skies

. . .


I'll always be with you for as long as you please
For I am the forest but you are the trees
I'm empty without you so come grow within me
For I am the forest and you are the trees
And the heavens need romance so love never dies
You'll be the stars dear and I'll be the sky
And should any of this find us let them all be forewarned
That you are the thunder and I am the storm
And I'll always be with you for as long as you please
For I am the forest and you are the trees
I'll always be with you for as long as you please
For I am the forest but you are the trees

[ guitar ]

I'll always be with you for as long as you please
For I am the forest but you are the trees

[ mandolin ]

. . .


Nobody slides, my friend
It's a truth on which
You can depend
If you're living a lie
It will eat you alive
And nobody slides, my friend

Nobody slides, my friend
You can try it
But you'll never win
You can scream
You can shout
But it all evens out
And nobody slides my, friend

[ guitar ]

Nobody slides, my friend
Listen I'll say it again
You can run
You can hide
But it's still waitin' inside
And nobody slides, my friend
