1.Anywhere Like Heaven
When i walk along your city streets
And look into your eyes
When i see that simple sadness
That upon your features lies
If my spirit starts to sink
It comes as no surprise
It's been a long way from anywhere
Like heaven to your town, this town
There's a pasture in the countryside
I used to call my own
There's a natural pillow for my head
The grass there's overgrown
I think of that place from time to time
When i want to be alone
It's been a long way from anywhere
Like heaven to your town, this town
Now, people live from day to day
But they do not count the time
They don't see the days slipping by
And neither do i
Now, people live from day to day
But they do not count the time (you know)
They don't see their days slipping by
And neither do i
When i walk along your city streets
And look into your eyes
When i see that simple sadness
That across your features lies (i see lies)
If my spirit starts to sink
It comes as no surprise
I've come a long way from anywhere
Like heaven to this town, your town
2.Blossom
Blossom, smile some sunshine down my way
Lately, i've been lonesome
Blossom, it's been much too long a day
Seems my dreams have frozen
Melt my cares away
Send the sunshine down my way whenever you call my name
I know what you mean to say to me, girl, it's all the same
Blossom, there's any empty road behind
Sit you down beside me
Blossom, there's a sweet dream on my mind
There's a song inside me
Take these chains away
Now, send the sunshine down my way whenever you call my name
I know what you mean to say to me, girl, it's all the same
Blossom, smile some sunshine down my way
Lately, i've been lonesome
Blossom, it's been much too long a day
Seems my dreams have frozen
Melt my cares away
3.Country Road
Take to the highway won't you lend me your name
Your way and my way seem to be one and the same
Mamma don't understand it
She wants to know where i've been
I'd have to be some kind of natural born fool
To want to pass that way again
But i could feel it
On a country road
Sail on home to jesus won't you good girls and boys
I'm all in pieces, you can have your own choice
But i can hear a heavenly band full of angels
And they're coming to set me free
I don't know nothing 'bout the why or when
But i can tell that it's bound to be
Because i could feel it, child, yeah
On a country road
I guess my feet know where they want me to go
Walking on a country road
Take to the highway won't you lend me your name
Your way and my way seem to be one and the same, child
Mamma don't understand it
She wants to know where i've been
I'd have to be some kind of natural born fool
To want to pass that way again
But i could feel it
On a country road
Walk on down, walk on down, walk on down
Walk on down, walk on down a country road
Country road
Walking on a country road
4.Fire And Rain
Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Susanne the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this morning and i wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to send it to
I've seen fire and i've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that i thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when i could not find a friend
But i always thought that i'd see you again
Won't you look down upon me, jesus
You've got to help me make a stand
You've just got to see me through another day
My body's aching and my time is at hand
And i won't make it any other way
Oh, i've seen fire and i've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that i thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when i could not find a friend
But i always thought that i'd see you again
Been walking my mind to an easy time my back turned towards the
sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around
Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about
things
To come
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground
Oh, i've seen fire and i've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that i thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when i could not find a friend
But i always thought that i'd see you, baby, one more time
again, now
Thought i'd see you one more time again
There's just a few things coming my way this time around, now
Thought i'd see you, thought i'd see you fire and rain, now
5.Lo And Behold
Lonely by day
Empty and cold
Only to say
Lo and behold
Deep in the night
Down in my dreams
Glorious sight
This soul has seen
There's a well on the hill
You just can't kill for jesus
There's a well on the hill
Let it be
I don't build no heathen temples
Where the lord has done laid his hand
There's a well on the hill
Let it be
Everyone's talking 'bout the gospel story
Some shall sink and some shall rise
Everyone's talking 'bout the train to glory
Long, long time 'til it gets here to you, baby
There's a well on the hill
You just can't kill for jesus
There's a well on the hill
Let it be
I don't build no heathen temples
Where the lord has done laid a hand
There's a well on the hill
Let it be
6.Oh, Susannah
Well i come from alabama with my banjo on my knee
And i'm bound for louisiana, my own true love for to see
It did rain all night the day i left
The weather was bone dry
The sun was so hot i froze myself
Suzanne, don't you go on and cry
I said, oh, suzannah
Now, don't you cry for me
As i come from alabama with this banjo on my knee
Well i had myself a dream the other night
When everything was still
I dreamed that i saw my girl suzanne
She was coming around the hill
Now, the buckwheat cake was in her mouth
A tear was in her eye
I said, that i come from dixie land
Suzanne, don't you break down and cry
I said, oh, suzannah
Now, don't you cry for me
'cause i come from alabama with my banjo on my knee
7.Oh Baby, Don't You Loose Your Lip On Me
Oh, baby, don't you loose your lip on me (no, no now)
Lord, have mercy (baby, now)
Now, don't you loose your lip on poor old loving man jt (no)
Now, i've tried so hard to be your good boy
Good god almighty, don't you know
Tell me what more, what more in this world
In this whole wide world can one good boy
Just one by himself man be, no
8.Steamroller
Well, i'm a steamroller, baby
I'm bound to roll all over you
Yes, i'm a steamroller now, baby
I'm bound to roll all over you
I'm gonna inject your soul with some sweet rock 'n roll
And shoot you full of rhythm and blues
Well, i'm a cement mixer
A churning urn of burning funk
Yes, i'm a cement mixer for you, baby
A churning urn of burning funk
Well, i'm a demolition derby (yeah)
A hefty hunk of steaming junk
Now, i'm a napalm bomb, baby
Just guaranteed to blow your mind
Yeah, i'm a napalm bomb for you, baby
Oh, guaranteed, just guaranteed to blow your mind
And if i can't have your love for my own (now)
Sweet child, won't be nothing left behind
It seems how lately, baby
Got a bad case steamroller blues
9.Suite For 20g
Slipping away what can i say
Won't you stay inside me month of may
And hold on to me golden day, slipping away
Sunshine on my wall
To keep my mind on the things i'm saying
Footsteps in the hall
To tell me i've been this way before, nevermore
Let it rain sweet mary jane
Let it wash your love down all around me
Come inside and put it down
Let it rain
I've been trying hard to find a way to let you know
That we can make it shine most all the time
This time 'round i'm searching down to where i used to go
And it's been on my mind to make it shine
You can say i wanna be free
I can say someday i will be
You can say i wanna be free
I can say someday i will be
When i catch a common cold
Wanna hear a saxophone
When i let the good times roll, baby
Slide me a bass trombone
Walk me down old funky street
Lord knows i feel good enough to eat (now)
Hold my soul. now, i'm sure enough fond of my rock 'n roll
When i go to sleep at night
Wanna hear a slide guitar
When i'm feeling loose and right
Riding in my automobile
Boney maroney and peggy sue
Got the rocking pneumonia, got the boogey-woogey flu
Baby, hold my soul. said, i'm sure enough fond of my rock 'n
roll
Good god
10.Sunny Skies
Sunny skies sleeps in the morning
He doesn't know when to rise
He closes his weary eyes upon the day
Look at him yawning
Throwing his morning hours away
He knows how to ease down slowly
Everything is fine in the end
And you will be pleased to know
That sunny skies hasn't a friend
Sunny skies weeps in the evening
It doesn't much matter why
I guess he just has to cry from time to time
Everyone's leaving
And sunny skies has to stay behind
Still he knows how to ease down slow
Everything is fine in the end
And you will be pleased to know
That sunny skies hasn't a friend
Sunny skies sleeps in the morning
He doesn't know when to rise
He closes his weary eyes upon the day
And throws it all away
Looking at the snow and trees that grow
Outside my window
Looking at the things that passed me by
Wondering if where i've been is worth
The things i've been through
Ending with a friend named sunny skies
11.Sweet Baby James
There is a young cowboy he lives on the range
His horse and his cattle are his only companions
He works in the saddle and he sleeps in the canyons
Waiting for summer, his pastures to change
And as the moon rises he sits by his fire
Thinking about women and glasses of beer
And closing his eyes as the doggies retire
He sings out a song which is soft but it's clear
As if maybe someone could hear
(chorus)
Goodnight you moonlight ladies
Rockabye sweet baby james
Deep greens and blues are the colors i choose
Won't you let me go down in my dreams
And rockabye sweet baby james
Now the first of december was covered with snow
And so was the turnpike from stockbridge to boston
Lord, the berkshires seemed dream-like on account of that
frosting
With ten miles behind me and ten thousand more to go
There's a song that they sing when they take to the highway
A song that they sing when they take to the sea
A song that they sing of their home in the sky
Maybe you can believe it if it helps you to sleep
But singing works just fine for me
- chorus -
