1.Take The Highway
Take the highway
Lord knows I've been gone too long
Lot of sad days, yeah
One day you'll turn around
and I'll be gone
And the time has finally come
for me to pack my bags and walk away
Hear me say...
I'll be back someday
But darlin' please don't
wait for me too long
There's just one place I can't stay
Memories of your love still linger on
And the time has finally come
for me to pack my bags and walk away
Here me say....
Take the highway
Take the highway
Take the highway
And the time has finally come
for me to pack my bags and walk away
Here me say...
2.Hillbilly Band
Lyricist：Toy Caldwell
I gotta get home before the sun goes down
I gotta go listen to my favorite sound
It's a hillbilly fiddle and an ol' guitar
Cousin Stanley on a corn liquor jar
Sometimes I stay up late at night
A little moonshine whiskey and all things right
You'll probably get stuck, you don't know where you are
As you stomp your feet to a country guitar
You can have fun, I'm tellin' you can
When you stomp your feet to a hillbilly band
Every night this is where I go
I grab me a lady and I dose e doe
Ain't nothin' in this world I'd rather do
Then to guitar pick them country blues
I'm gonna do a little chicken pickin'
I'm gonna do a little chicken pickin'
You can have fun, I'm tellin' you can
When you stomp your feet to a hillbilly band
3.Can't You See
Lyricist：Toy Talmadge Caldwell
Gonna take a freight train down at the station Lord
I don't care where it goes
Gonna climb a mountain, the highest mountain, Lord
And jump off, ain't nobody gonna know
Can't you see, oh can't you see
What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me
Can't you see, can't you see
What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me
I'm gonna find me a hole in the wall
Gonna crawl inside and die
I call my lady now, a mean old woman, Lord
Never told me goodbye
Can't you see, oh can't you see
What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me
Can't you see, can't you see
What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me
Oh, I'm gonna buy ticket as far as I can
I ain't never comin' back
I'm gonna take that south bound
Riding all the way to Georgia, Lord
Till the train it run out of track

What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me
Can't you see, can't you see
What that woman, Lord, she been doin' to me

4.See You Later, I'm Gone
Lyricist：Toy Caldwell
I've been thinkin' about the way
You've been doin' me, now for a long long time
When a woman acts the way you do
Well somewhere ya have to draw the line
Empty liquor bottles and crowded bar rooms
Seems to be your home
Now that I know the way you feel for me
I guess it's time for me to move on
I have tried everything
To make you see my way
But now I'm tired of being made a fool
I believe it's time I had my say, aw yeah
Empty liquor bottles and crowded bar rooms
Seems to be your home
Now that I know the way you feel for me
I guess it's time for me to move on
Goodbye woman, I'm leavin' you
So long heartache, so long
I hope you're happy somewhere
Down lover's lane
See you later, I'm gone
Goodbye woman, I'm leavin' you
See you later, I'm gone
5.A New Life
Hey, mister, got a road map？
I'm kinda lost
Gotta get to Georgia tonight
Don't care what it costs
Been down in Denver jail for four long years
And I'm so homesick I could die
Got a sweet woman back home
Waitin there for me
Least in all her letters, Lord
She said she'd be
Waitin there with open arms
Born new life for me
And I'm so homesick I could die
Shot a man in Denver
Over some money owed
So she told me
That I had to go
But I paid my time
And a new life is gonna be mine
And a new life is gonna be mine
6.This Ol' Cowboy
Lyricist：Toy Caldwell
Well I'm sittin' down in San Anton'
Waiting on an eight o'clock train
My woman left me here last night
Things ain't been quite the same
I gotta get back to Dallas
And tie up a few loose ends
I'm gonna work a week make a hundred dollars
Oh and hit the road again
So I don't want you to think that you're the first one
To leave me out here on my own
'Cause this ain't gonna be the first time
This ol' cowboy spent the night alone
Well honey, I've been a fool but a bigger fool
I can't remember when I've been
Just to open up my heart
And let you walk right in
But there's one thing in life
That ain't hard for me to do
That's as soon as I kiss the lips of another woman
I'm gonna forget all about you
So, I don't want you to think that you're the first one
To leave me out here on my own
'Cause this ain't gonna be the first time
This ol' cowboy spent the night alone
Lord, if you wrote all the woman's names down I know
And let me pick one out
I don't think, there'd be one in the whole bunch
Oh I'd give a hoot about
So I don't want you to think that you're the first one
To leave this ol' boy out here on his own
No, it ain't gonna be the first time
This ol' cowboy spent the night alone
No, it ain't gonna be the first time
This ol' cowboy spent the night alone
7.Ramblin' (Live)
I've got ramblin',
ramblin' on my mind, Lord.
Gotta find me a woman
of a different kind.
Now she's gone, Lord,
I've got ramblin' on my mind.
I've got Worries,
worries on my mind, Lord.
Ever since you left me, baby,
I've got peace of mind.
Now she's gone, Lord,
I've got ramblin' on my mind.
When my lady comes home to me,
oh, when my lady, comes home to me,
need some money to pay the bills.
I just tell her these simple words --
I've got ramblin' on my mind,
I've got ramblin' on my mind,
I've got ramblin' on my mind,
I've got ramblin' on my mind,
I've got ramblin' on my mind,
I've got ramblin' on my mind.
Lord, I've got ramblin',
ramblin' on my mind.
I've got Worries,
worries on my mind, Lord.
Ever since you left me, baby,
I've got peace of mind.
Now she's gone, Lord,
ramblin' on my mind.
8.24 Hours At A Time (Live)
I've been down around Houston,Texas
Where the sun shines most of the time
I've been driving about six hours
Tryin' to reach that Arkansas line
But Texarkana's an hour ahead
And I've got to keep my wheels
Rolling
But woman you're always on my mind
Twenty-four hours at a time
So my woman I'm hoping you feel the
Same Way
Woman you know that I miss you
And I can't miss you no more
I got this ride doing seventy miles an hour
She's loaded she's down to the floor
But I've got to reach that Arkansas line
Before the sun goes down
But woman you're always on my mind
Twenty-four hours at a time
So my woman I'm hoping you feel the
Same Way
Woman you know I need you I've been
On the road too much
Tired of looking at the highway
Got to keep in touch some way
I've been down around Houston,Texas
Where the sun shines most of the time
I've been driving about six hours
Tryin' to reach that Arkansas line
But Texarkana's an hour ahead
And I've got to keep my wheels rolling
But woman you're always on my mind
Twenty-four hours at a time
So my woman I'm hoping you feel the
Same Way
9.Try One More Time
My glass is empty, but innocently
Just sittin here thinkin how much you mean to me
Thought about leavin, but you know you're one of a kind
And even though we tried it all
I'd like to try it more time..
Said tonight at the party, you wore your finest dress
You walked around in style lookin so much finer than the rest
And when you walked up to me, Lord
You know I was so proud
And even though we tried it all
I'd like to try it more time..
10.The Thrill Is Gone (Live)
Thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away
You know you done me wrong, baby
And you'll be sorry some day
The thrill is gone
It's gone away from me
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away from me
Although I'll still live on
But so lonely I'll be
The thrill is gone
It's gone away for good
Oh, the thrill is gone
Baby, it's gone away for good
Someday I know I'll be over it all, baby
Just like I know a good woman should
You know I'm free, free now baby
I'm free from your spell
Oh, I'm free, free, free now
I'm free from your spell
And now that it's all over
All I can do is wish you well
11.Long Hard Ride
(Instrumental)
12.Virginia
Lyricist：Toy Caldwell
I met Virginia two summers ago
Up in them mountains teaching school
All alone in a one room shack
Teaching the children all she knew
We spent a lot of hours together
And one day she said she'd love me for all time
And I'm in love with my Virginia
And I hope she don't change her mind
We took a trip to Montana
Guess we were looking for gold
Never saw a trace of it
But it was everywhere we were told
Worked in a mine for thirteen hours every day
I took one look at my Virginia
And knew she wasn't meant to live that way
The going was rough
But she treated me so kind
I'm in love with Miss Virginia
And I hope she don't change her mind
Now we're back in Carolina
Up in them Smokies where we belong
Never knew why we went away
Can't understand why we were gone
Been with her twenty years
And all those years she made me feel so fine
And she still tells me that she loves me
And I hope she don't change her mind
And I hope she don't change her mind
13.Searchin' for a Rainbow
Lyricist：Toy Caldwell
I rode in to town today
In my heart I said, 'Lord, I'd love to stay'
But somethin' in me said, 'Boy move along'
Don't know what it is the good Lord bred it in my bones
And I'm searchin' for a rainbow
And if the wind never showed me where to go
You'll be waitin' at the end, and I'll know
I'll say, 'To Hell with that pot of gold'
I'll say, 'To Hell with that pot of gold'
This mare I'm ridin', yeah, she's gettin' kind of tired
But in my heart she knows my one desire
She's gonna take me to the end of that road
She lay down and die, I'll say, 'God rest here soul'
And I'm searchin' for a rainbow
And if the wind never showed me where to go
You'll be waitin' at the end, and I'll know
I'll say, 'To Hell with that pot of gold'
I'll say, 'To Hell with that pot of gold'
And I'm searchin' for a rainbow
And if the wind never showed me where to go
You'll be waitin' at the end, and I'll know
I'll say, 'To Hell with that pot of gold'
I'll say, 'To Hell with that pot of gold'
And I'm searchin' for a rainbow
And if the wind never showed me where to go
You'll be waitin' at the end, and I'll know
I'll say, 'To Hell with that pot of gold'
I'll say, 'To Hell with that pot of gold'
14.Windy City Blues
I'm sittin' in Chicago on the thirtieth floor
Lookin' down on the city below
My heart is cold as the wind through the streets
And outside it's starting to snow
Weeks ago I left you in sunny Caroline
Sittin' in our home in the pines
I got a job to do that takes me away from you
But your love still remains on my mind
I'm in love with that girl from that roebuck town
Since I met her she's made my life so sound
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine
She's the best thing that I'll ever find
The city lights have gone
And the night has brought a storm
And soon I'll be headin' home to you
I can taste your wine
Though it's been a long, long time
No more will I have the Chicago blues
I'm in love with that girl from that roebuck town
Since I met her she's made my life so sound
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine
She's the best thing that I'll ever find
Look, look around there's snow on the ground
What a cold hard life that I've known
But my love still glows like the city below
Because of all the love she's shown
I'm on a southbound train
Takin' me away from this snow
Takin' me where I really want to go
Out of these chilly winds and havin' no friends
I need the warmth of your sweet lovin' soul
I'm in love with that girl from that roebuck town
Since I met her she's made my life so sound
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine
She's the best thing that I'll ever find
Got the windy city blues
15.See You One More Time (Live)
Lord I've always been a drifter, seems like I was always passing
through
I never met anybody or anything, I just had to come back to you
But the minute I saw you, all my dreams were standing alive
And I would gladly give a hundred of my tomorrows if I could see
you just one more time
If I could see you one more time there's just a few things on my
mind
Just a few more things that I'd like to tell ya
If I could see you just one more time
As I travel down the highway, got to be the gypsy in my bones
But I want to see your smiling face, makes a man feel so alone
But you've already captured my soul, and slowly you're invading
my mind And I would gladly give a hundred of my tomorrows if I
could see you just one more time
If I could see you one more time there's just a few things on my
mind
Just a few more things that I'd like to tell ya
If I could see you just one more time
If I could see you one more time
If I could see you one more time
If I could see you one mroe time
16.Everyday (I Have The Blues) (Live)
Lord, everyday, everyday
Everyday, everyday I sing the blues
Goin' to find me a preacher man
Lord, I've gotta find one
Lord, I went to see my mama
Down at the City Hall
She said, '？？Everyday, everyday'
I said, '？？Everyday and Lord
Everyday I sing the blues'
Lord, everyday, everyday
Everyday, Lord, everyday
I'mma find me a preacher man
Lord, I've gotta find one
Lord, everyday, everyday
Everyday, Lord, everyday I sing
Goin' to find me a preacher man
Lord, everyday, everyday
Everyday, everyday, Lord
I said, everyday, Lord, everyday
I said, Lord, everyday
I said, Lord, everyday
I said, Lord, everyday
I said, Lord, everyday
I'll have to sing those no good
Low down, dirty rotten stinkin' blues
17.I Should Have Never Started Lovin' You
Lyricist：Doug Gray, George Mccorkle, Toy Caldwell
There's something in your eyes that reminds me
Of all the loves I've left behind me
Looks on your face yes, they tell me
That I should have never started lovin' you
It was true when they said that I was mean and cruel
All the loves I've had, I've made them out as fools
Now the tide has turned and I'm lonely too
I should have never started lovin' you
I should have never started lovin' you
After all the things that we've been through
I could have spent my whole life with you
I should have never started lovin' you
You hugged me in a way that I had never felt
Sky turned so dark I thought, I knew you well
I'm so lonely girl, wish I could leave this world
I should have never started lovin' you
I should have never started lovin' you
After all the things that we've been through
I could have spent my whole life with you
I should have never started lovin' you
It was true when they said that I was mean and cruel
All the loves I've had, I've made them out as fools
Now the tide has turned and I'm lonely too
I should have never started lovin' you
I should have never started lovin' you
After all the things that we've been through
I could have spent my whole life with you
I should have never started lovin' you
I should have never started lovin' you
I should have never started lovin' you
I should have never started lovin' you
18.Bob Away My Blues
Well I'm goin' down to the river
I've got a canepole in my hand
I've got my redworms in a Maxwell house coffee can
I'm gonna sit under ashade tree on a riverbank where it's cool
I'm gonna close my eyes and dream and let the cork Bob away my
blues
Well I wake up every mornin' I pick peaches all day
And on Saturday night we'll have a dance or two we might waller
in the hay
Now the only thing that ever whipped my pa
Was this bad dude called old age
And his last years was his best years
And this is what he had to say
He said boy I've worked this dirt all my life but things ain't
been good for awhile
Why don't you move to the city make a little money you might be
the first one in
The family ever to die with a smile
Well I took his advice things goin' well
But my friends are far and few
But whoever said a city boy can't have the country blues
Whoever said a city boy can't have the country blues
Whoever said a city boy can't have the country blues
Well honey they ain't talked to me and you
19.Fly Like An Eagle
Lyricist：Toy Caldwell
I'm gonna take me a ride on a riverboat
Down to New Orleans
Gotta pocket full of money and a liquor bottle
Gonna drink away my dreams
Don't really wanna leave
Sure I can't stay
I'm gonna get on that riverboat
And gamble my life away
Makes me fly like an eagle
Higher and higher everyday
'Cause in my mind and in my dreams
I can't get her away
I'm gonna sit down at the poker table
Five card stud's my game
Gonna try and forget that crazy woman
Gonna try and forget her name
I don't know how I'll make it
But I'll forget her some way
This is the time and the only time
She ain't gonna get away
She makes me fly like an eagle
Higher and higher everyday
'Cause in my mind and in my dreams
I can't get her away
And she makes me fly like an eagle
Higher and higher everyday
'Cause in my mind and in my dreams
I can't get her away, can't get her away
20.Asking Too Much Of You
Lyricist：Toy Caldwell
If I ask you to tell me about the man
You been seen with most everyday
If I ask you to tell me
Why you're never at home
When I call you in the middle of the day
And when I ask you to tell me only the truth
That ain't asking too much of you
If I ask you to tell me
Why you got someone to keep the kids
That Saturday I was gone
And I ask you to tell me
Why that same Saturday night
It seems you forgot to come home
All I'd like to know is if you still care
And I don't think the question
I'm asking is by no means unfair
If I ask you to tell me about the man
You been seen with most everyday
And if I ask you to tell me
Why you're never at home
When I call you in the middle of the day
When I ask you tell me only the truth
That ain't asking too much of you
