Rock Me on the Water written by Jackson Browne Oh people look around you The signs are everywhere You left him for somebody other than you To be the one to care You're lost inside your houses There's no time to find you now Oh your walls are burning And your towers are turning I've gotta leave you here And try to get down to the sea somehow Rock me on the water Sister won't you soothe my fevered brow O-oh rock me on the water Gotta get down to the sea somehow The road is filled with homeless souls Every woman child and man Who have no idea where they will go But they'll help you if they can Now everyone must have some thought That's gonna pull them through somehow Well the fires are raging hotter and hotter But the sisters of the sun Are gonna rock me on the water now Rock me on the water Sister won't you soothe my fevered brow O-oh rock me on the water I gotta get down to the sea somehow Oh people look among you It's there your hope must lie There's a seabird above you gliding in one place Like Jesus in the sky We all must do the best we can And then hang onto that gospel cloud When my life is over Gonna stand for the father But the sisters of the sun Are gonna rock me on the water now Rock me on the water Sister won't you soothe my fevered brow O-oh rock me on the water Then maybe I'll remember Maybe I'll remember how Rock me on the water The wind is with me now O-oh rock me on the water Gotta get down to the sea somehow I gotta get down to the sea somehow |
Crazy Arms written by R. Mooney / C. Seals Now blue ain't the word for the way that I feel And a storm is brewing in this heart of mine This ain't no crazy dream I know that's it real You're someone else's love now, you're not mine Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new But my yearning heart keeps saying you're not mine My troubled mind knows soon to another you'll be wed That's why I'm lonely all the time Please take these treasured dreams I had for you and me And take all the love I thought was mine Someday my crazy arms will hold somebody new But right now I'm so lonesome I could die Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new But my yearning heart keeps saying you're not mine My troubled mind knows soon to another you'll be wed You're someone else's love now, you're not mine Well you're someone else's love now, you're not mine |
I Won't Be Hangin' 'Round written by Eric Kaz I've been alone too long Sitting by myself I'm getting to old To help myself But I won't be hangin round your door Begging No I won't be hangin round To feel the pain And if you take my life in hand And finally make me understand It won't do no good You'll just hurt my plan And I won't be hangin round your door Begging No I won't be hangin rond To feel the pain Sometimes I think I can't go on And every day I live Well it seems like my life's unreal Sometimes I think I won't live too long But I hope I'm wrong That's the way I feel And I won't be hangin round your door Begging No I won't be hangin round To steal a kiss I won't be hanging round your door Begging No i won't be hangin round To feel the pain No I won't be hangin round your door Begging Oh I won't be hangin round To feel the pain |
I Still Miss Someone written by Johnny Cash Round my door the leaves are falling A cold wild wind will come Sweethearts walk by together And I still miss someone No I never got over those blue eyes I see them everywhere I miss those arms that held me When all the love was there I wonder if he's sorry For leaving what we'd begun There's someone for me somewhere But I still miss someone No I never got over those blue eyes I see them everywhere I miss those arms that held me When all the love was there |
In My Reply written by Livingston Taylor Now Matthew was a country boy until one day he found That cheatin' folks was easier than plowin' his daddy's ground He left his home back in Ohio, bound for Chicago's town He crossed Big Jim and turned his back A bullet cut him down And as he lay there dying He said "Will I see my Ohio?" In my reply I lied a bit And said I did not know Now Jim McCall he was meek and small And to become a man He'd have to build himself up tall With fancy folks and land He threw some stones at honest friends And he got himself these things His children left him and he sneered "That's what my kindness brings" And on the south side he got lost He asked me where to go In my reply I lied a bit And said I did not know Yes Miss Lazy Susan called me up She heard I stole the show In my reply I lied a bit And said I did not know In my reply I lied a bit and said I did not know |
I Fall to Pieces written by Hank Cochran and Harlan Howard I fall to pieces each time I see you again. I fall to pieces How can I be just your friend You want me to act like we've never kissed You want me to forget, pretend we've never met And I've tried and I've tried but I haven't yet You walk by and I fall to pieces I fall to pieces each time someone speaks your name I fall to pieces Time only adds to the flame You tell me to find someone else to love Someone who'll love me too The way you used to do But each time I go out with someone new You walk by and I fall to pieces Well you walk by and I fall to pieces |
Ramblin' 'Round written by Woodie Guthrie, Huddie Ledbetter & Alan Lomax Ramblin' round your city Ramblin' round your town But I never see a friend I know as I go ramblin' round boys As I go ramblin' round The peach trees they are loaded The branches are bending down Well I pick 'em all day for a dollar, Lord As I go ramblin' round boys As I go ramblin' round Sometimes the fruit gets rotten Falls down on the ground Well there's a hungry mouth for every peach As I go ramblin' round boys As I go ramblin' round My father hoped that I would be Someone of high renown But I am just a refugee As I go ramblin' round boys As I go ramblin' round Ramblin' round your city Ramblin' round your town Well I never see a friend I know As I go ramblin' round boys As I go ramblin' round |
Birds written by Neil Young Lover, there will be another one To hover over you beneath the sun Tomorrow see the things that never come today When you see me fly away without you Shadow on the things you know Feathers fall around you And show you the way to go It's over It's over Nestle in your wings my little one A special morning brings another sun Tomorrow see the things that never come today When you see me fly away without you Shadow on the things you know Feathers fall around you and show you the way to go It's over It's over |
Faithful written by Eric Andersen You said loving you And leaving you Was the hardest thing to do To give my foot Another chance To try another shoe But every time I see someone I'm always seeing you No I have not always been faithful I always have been true Did you ever walk the empty street Until the break of dawn Just to hear some lonesome sparrow Sing a lonesome song Did it make you feel any better Like a stranger left so low Though you didn't know you both had been A thousand miles from home And you said loving you And leaving you Was the hardest thing to do To give my foot Another chance To try another shoe But every time I see someone I'm always seeing you No I have not always been faithful I always have been true No I have not always been faithful I always have been true |
