1.Simple Love
Little yellow house sittin' on a hill
That is where he lived
That is where he died
Every Sunday morning
Hear the weeping willows cry
Two children born
A beautiful wife
Four walls and livin's all he needed in life
Always giving, never asking back
I wish I had a simple love like that
I want a simple love like that
Always giving, never askin' back
For when I'm in my final hour lookin' back
I hope I had a simple love like that
My momma was his only little girl
If he'd had the money he'd have given her the world
Sittin' on the front porch together they would sing
Oh how I long to hear that harmony
I want a simple love like that
Always giving never asking back
When I'm in my final hour looking back
I hope I had a simple love like that
I want a simple love like that
Always giving never asking back
When I'm in my final hour looking back
I hope I had a simple love like that
2.Sister Rosetta Goes Before Us
Strange things are happening everyday
I hear the music up above my head
Though the side of my heart has left me again
I hear music up above
Secrets are written in the sky
Looks like ive lost the love ive never found
Though the sound of hope has left me again
I hear music up above
Standing in my broken heart all night long
Darkness heald me like a freind when love was lost
Looking for the land thats hidden in the cross
The finders love
I know I loved you too much
I'll go alone to get through
I hear rosetta singing in the night
Echos of lighting shine like stars after there gone
And tonight she's my giude as a girl on the moon
With the music up above
3.Let Me Touch You For Awhile
It's been a long time coming
As you shed a lonesome tear
And now you're in a wonderama
I wonder what you're doin' here
The flame no longer flickers
You're feeling just like a fool
You keep starin' into your liquor
Wonderin' what to do
I don't hardly know you
But I'd be willin' to show you
I know a way to make you smile
Let me touch you for awhile
I'm gonna ruin my black mascara
You're drinkin whiskey when it should be wine
You keep a-lookin' into that mirror
But to me you're lookin' really fine
I don't hardly know you
But I'd be willin' to show you
I know a way to make you
Laugh at that cowgirl
as she's walkin' out your door
I know a way to make you smile
Just let me whisper things
You've never heard before
Just let me touch you, baby
Just let me touch you for awhile
I don't hardly know you
But I'd be willin' to show you
I know a way to make you smile
It's been a long time
Let me touch you for awhile
4.The Lucky One
You're the lucky one so I've been told
Free as the wind blowindown the road
Loved by many, hated by none
I'd say you were lucky cause
I know what you've done
Not a care in the world not a worry in sight
Everything's going to be all right
Cause you're the lucky one
You're the lucky one always havinfun
A jack of all trades a master of none
You look at the world with a smiling eye
And laugh at the devil as his train rolls by
Just give you a song and a one-night stand
And you'll be looking at a happy man
Cause you're the lucky one
Were you blessed？ I guess
By never knowinwhich road you're choosing
To you the next best thing to playinand winning
Is playinand losin
You're the lucky one I know that now
Don't ask you why when where or how
You look at the world through your smilineye
And laugh at the devil as his train rolls by
Just give you a song and a one-night stand
And you'll be looking at a happy man
Cause you're the lucky one
Were you blessed？ I guess
By never knowinwhich road you're choosing
To you the next best thing to playinand winning

5.So Long,So Wrong
I know I'll be lonesome
That brings about a little fear
I know I'll be sad and I'll be blue
I have given the best of me
When I forgot to say to you
What you forgot to say to me
So long, so wrong
I have tried and cared, baby
it was never enough
In your mind I never had a clue
So I'll repave the same old road I'm on
Where I forgot to say to you
What you forgot to say to me
So long, so wrong
Did we take forever in vain
Into the past
Did we think forever was really gonna last
You have tired me with your wanting ways
You can't buy yourself to be complete
I have given up caring anymore
Once you were big in a world that's small
And now you're all alone
Have we taken forever in vain
Into the past
Did we think forever was really gonna last
6.Empty Hearts
Are you leaving, are you going
Did you think you could lose that feeling
Without me knowing
Are you wishing you'd never met me
Does it take some train whistle blowing
To forget me
All the losing
And the knowing that you love her still
Could be nothing to what empty hearts must feel
Tell me what an empty heart must feel
Are you leaving, are you going
Did you think you could lose that feeling
Without me knowing
All the losing
And the knowing that you love her still
Could be nothing to what empty hearts must feel
Tell me what an empty heart must feel
7.Everytime You Say Goodbye
Look at the sky baby
What do you see？
Looks like the tears that I cry
Fallin' down like rain on the ground
Every time you say goodbye
Take a look around now
Why don't you feel
The way that cold wind stings and bites
And your words just are like arrows through my heart
Every time you say goodbye
There's a restless feeling knocking at my door today
There's a shadow hanging 'round my garden gate
I read between the lines of words you can't disguise
Love has gone away, and put these tears in my eyes
Look at the sky baby, see how it cries？
Ain't it just like my tears
Fallin' down like rain on the ground
Every time you say goodbye
There's a restless feeling knocking at my door today
There's a shadow hanging 'round my garden gate
I read between the lines of words you can't disguise
Love has gone away, and put these tears in my eyes
There's a restless feeling knocking at my door today
There's a shadow hanging 'round my garden gate
I read between the lines of words you can't disguise
Love has gone away, and put these tears in my eyes
8.Wish I Still Had You
Walking out on me must be the way
you show me how it feels to be her
I realize the fault is mine,
I'm getting everything that I deserve
It's over and older the tears seem much colder
Sunshiney days seem to be so blue
It's over and older the tears seem much colder
Each passing day I wish I still had you
My troubles would be all over now
if I could only get you off my mind
And I would give a fortune now
if I could only hold you one more time
It's over and older the tears seem much colder
Sunshiney days seem to be so blue
It's over and older the tears seem much colder
Each passing day I wish I still had you
It's over and older the tears seem much colder
Sunshiney days seem to be so blue
It's over and older the tears seem much colder
Each passing day I wish I still had you
It's over and older the tears seem much colder
Sunshiney days seem to be so blue
It's over and older the tears seem much colder
Each passing day I wish I still had you
Each passing day I wish I still had you
9.Broadway
I stood on faith and the corner of ambition
I came here to sink or swim
And to show them all that they were wrong
And though I never thought I'd make it this far
So the curtains are down
For the moment I'm someone
There were those in the wings who waited,
who came this way
Now there gone
But there's always someone at home
who never forgets who you are
When I'm down and I'm growing old
I won't be along no railroad track
I won't be bound to a life out in the cold
It's been a steady pace to keep my steps
between these cracks on Broadway
And my stride in rhythm
to the beat of home, sweet home
When I'm down and I'm growing old
I won't be along no railroad track
I won't be bound to a life out in the cold
It's been a steady pace to keep my steps
between these cracks on Broadway
And my stride in rhythm
to the beat of home, sweet home
Can't go on, I'm on the top of my better years
I'm going home, it's too lonesome
on the bottom rung here
It's been a steady pace to keep my steps
between these cracks on Broadway
And my stride in rhythm
to the beat of home, sweet home
10.Baby,Now That I Found You (AKUS Live)

Spent my life looking

Now you tell me that you want to leave me
But darling, I just can't let you

11.Sawing On The Strings
Way back in the mountains
Way back in the hills
There used to live a mountianeer
They called him fiddlin' Will
He could play most anything
And some say he could sing
But the one thing that he liked to do best
Was sawing on the strings
So get out the fiddle
And rosin up the bow
Look at ol' Will a pattin' his toe
we'll make music til the rafters ring
All that pickin' and a sawin on the string
When the neighbors had a shindig
And they all had viddles to eat
We'd always have to wait on Will
To make the frolic complete
When he comes down from the mountain
All the gals began to sway
Sometimes he'd pick that ol' 5 string
Until the break of day
So tune up the 5 string
Tighten up the hyde
Tell all the hill folks to get inside
All them pickin' and a sawing on the string
So tune up the 5 string
Tighten up the hyde
Tell all the hill folks to get inside
All them pickin' and a sawing on the string
12.Restless
Honey, I know you've been alone some,
Why don't you 'phone some,
'cause I love you.
An' honey, I know I've been away some,
I've had to pay some and you have too.
But the one thing I know：
that when I, I turn out the light,
Visions of you, dear, dance in the night.
I've been put down, pushed around,
apprehended and led downtown.
An' I can't help it if I'm out of sight,
'Cause I'm restless tonight.
I just can't stand bein' alone.
Gonna have to change that some day.
There's a restless feelin' in my bones an' I know,
That at times, it just won't go away.
So if it's all the same, honey,
I can't take the blame, baby,
I can't play your game, honey,
what's true is true.
And if, in the end,
the temptation wears you thin, honey,
I'll, I'll just pretend that
I'll leave it up to you.
But the one thing I know： that when I,
I turn out the light,
Visions of you, dear, dance in the night.
I've been put down, pushed around,
apprehended and led downtown.
Can't help it if I'm full of fire.
But the one thing I know： that when I,
I turn out the light,
Visions of you, dear, dance in the night.
I've been put down, pushed around,
apprehended and led downtown.
An' I can't help it if I'm out of sight,
'Cause I'm restless tonight.
13.When You Say Nothing At All (AKUS Live)
It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing
The smile on your face
lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes
sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand
says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near
you drown out the crowd
Old Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine
The smile on your face
lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes
sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand
says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
The smile on your face
lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes
sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand
says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all
14.A Living Prayer
In this world I walk alone
with no place to call my home
But there's One who holds my hand
The rugged road through barren lands
The way is dark, the road is steep
But He's become my eyes to see
The strength to climb, my griefs to bear
This Savior lives inside me there
In Your love I find release
A haven from my unbelief
Take my life and let me be
A living prayer my God to thee
In these trials of life I find
Another Voice inside my mind
He comforts me and bids me live
Inside the love the Father gives
In your love I find release
A haven from my unbelief
Take my life and let me be
A living prayer my God to thee
take my life and let me be
A living prayer my God to thee
