Put on your sunhat sweet Adeline

We’ll go out walking down that

long country run

I’ll be with you in the

By and by

From noon until sunset

 from dark till sunrise

You can tell everyone that we’re

 just out walking

Put on your sunhat sweet Adeline

We’ll take our leisure by that slow riverside

You’ll be with me in the

By and by

From noon until sunset

 from dark till sunrise

You can tell everyone you don’t

Care if they’re talking

Put on your sunhat sweet Adeline

We’ll walk together on that unwinding road

We’ll be together in the bye and bye

From morning to sunset from dark till sunrise

You can bless everyone with the light you’re shining

Put on your sunhat, sweet  Adeline

Road Rise Up - Lyrics

Road Rise Up

Come on Darlin now don't be sad

(don't be sad)

You know things just ain't so bad

(ain't so bad)

The better angels of your nature

Will rush to help when hope has failed you

when the darkness deepens and you're far away

you're not lost but wandering

and every road you take will lead you home

may the road rise up to meet you

each hand be a friend

may the road rise up to meet you

and even though the journeys long

may each step bring you close to home again

Angel sitting on my shoulder tells me that

(ain't so bad)

there'll come another chance to hold you

(don't be sad)

the light that's hidden in your eyes

will shine like gold when fortune smiles

when the evening closes and you're far way

I know that tomorrow brings

another road that homeward leads you now

may the road rise up to meet you

each hand be a friend

may the road rise up to meet you

and even though the journeys long

may each step bring you close to home

may the road rise up to meet you

each hand be a friend

may the road rise up to meet you

and even though the journeys long

may each step bring you close to home again

Wine To Water - Lyrics

Wine to Water

Standing at her riverbank

see it running black and thin

She’s telling me to cross to her

But there’s no way back once you step in

and on the other side a place

where you’re not a wanted man

and all the yearning promises

of an undiscovered land

an undiscovered land

You can't touch her south of the border

She's gonna change your wine into water

knows the night becomes her

Wears the darkness as a veil

lips are running  scarlet

With the promises they entail

And still you try to reach them

and the troubles that await

hear her name in legion

call you closer to your fate

Closer to your fate

You can't touch her south of the border

She's gonna change your wine into water

Sometimes when I feel a little strange

Sometimes when I’m feeling low

I still feel her carving my name

Deep in the wood

Of a cross beside the road

Even In a Lifetime - lyrics

Even in a lifetime

It’s so hard to get a

straight answer

so don’t mind when I ask again

You say that you don’t want

Another lover

But I don’t want to be your friend

Even in a lifetime it seems

You still don’t know what you mean to me

Even in a lifetime it seems

And by the time you wake up

I’m outta here

I can’t tell you how

To make your choices

I’d make one for you, if I could

So tired from taking

your pick of poisons

Can’t tell the bad guys from the good

Even in a lifetime it seems

You still don’t know what you mean to me

Even in a lifetime in dreams

And by the time you wake up

I’m outta here

Even in a lifetime it seems

You still don’t know what you mean to me

Even in a lifetime in dreams

And by the time you wake up

Even in a lifetime it seems

You still don’t know what you mean to me

Even in a lifetime in dreams

Of waking up to find you

Still lying at my side

morning on a day

That never comes

Country Radio - Lyrics

Created on Friday, 17 August 2012 08:27

Headed down on a country road

Not there yet but I’m getting closer

Hear them on a country radio

sing yeah yeah yeah

Another useless day of trying

The things you should foreswear

You only laugh to stop from cryin

make like you don’t care

but when you peer into the distance

It’s like it’s looking back

To ask you what you’re waiting for

When nothing's built to last

Headed down on a country road

Not there yet but I’m getting closer

Hear them on a country radio

Sing yeah yeah yeah

Headed down on a country road

just another bleeding soul

singing on the country radio

sing yeah yeah yeah

Hard Times - Lyrics

Hard Times

Tell me the company's closing

that's what they say

there's been some money explosion

but not in my pay

words from the running man

speaks of a promised land

seem they don't understand

difference between their God and Man

When they tell you the things they believe in

take a look at the company their keeping

they'll take you to the hard times

take you to the hard times

Tell me they traded my future

for a better yesterday

their service keeps me a pauper

to stay in my place

'til I wake to the freedoms I'm losing

feel the vice of the future i'm choosing

take a breath as you rise from your seat

join the mob forming down in the street

grab your torch to help light the way

all the monsters are on parade

take you to the hard times

they'll take you to the hard times
