1.Heard it in a Love Song
I ain't never been with a woman long enough
for these old boots to get old
We've been together so long now, they both need re-soled
If I ever settle down, you would be my kind
But it's a good time for me to head on down the line
CHORUS：：
Heard it in a love song, heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song, can't be wrong
I'm the kind of man who likes to get away
Like to start dreamin' 'bout tomorrow today
Never said that I love you, you know that it's so
Where's that duffle bag of mine, for now I know it's time to go
(CHORUS)
I'm gonna' be leavin', at the break of dawn
Wish you could come, but I don't need no woman taggin' along
Don't sneak out that door, I couldn't stand to see you cry
I'd stay another year if I saw a teardrop in your eye
(CHORUS)
Never had a damn thing, but what I had, I had to leave it behind
You're the hardest thing I ever tried to get off of my mind
Always somethin' greener, on the other side of that hill
I was born a rambler and a rounder and I guess I always will
(CHORUS)
2.Heartbroke
The Marshall Tucker Band
Well, who wouldn't notice the fire in your eyes
Or the bitter direction of impending goodbyes
I'm fallin', I'm folded, I'm welded in place
At the sight of you standin' with streaks down your face
You got your heart broke, go runnin' from the reason
Get your heart broke, don't give up on believin' in me
Heartbroke, who kept me from leavin' with my heart broke
Well, cryin' when you're rich is a poor if you're lonely
Sheer madness prevails upon reason to yield
But all is not lost, it is only mistaken
A small consolation but I know just how you feel
You got your heart broke, go runnin' from the reason
Got your heart broke, don't give up on believin' in me
Heartbroke, who kept me from leavin' with my heart broke
Well, nobody said it was goin' to be easy
We all have our weak sides and need soft good touchin'
Nobody said that it would not be worth it
But human conditions can give you such
You got your heart broke, go runnin' from the reason
Got your heart broke, don't give up on believin' in me
Heartbroke, who kept me from leavin' with my heart broke
You kept me from leavin' with my heart broke
With my heart broke
With my heart broke
You got your heart broke
3.Fire On The Mountain
The Marshall Tucker Band
And there's fire on the mountain
Lightening in the air
Gold in them hills and it's waiting for me there
We were digging and sifting from five to five
Selling ev'rything we found just to stay alive
Gold flowed free like the whiskey in the bars
Sinning was the big thin Lord
And satan was the star
And there's fire on the mountain
Lightening in the air
Gold in them hills and it's waiting for me there
Dance hall girls were the evening treat
Empty cartridges and blood lined the gutters of the street
Men were shot down for the sake of fun
Or just to hear the noise of their 44 guns
And there's fire on the mountain
Lightening in the air
Gold in them hills and it's waiting for me there
Now my widow, she weeps by my grave
Tears flow free for her man she couldn't save
Shot down in cold blood by a gun that carried fame
All for a useless and no good worthless claim
And there's fire on the mountain
Lightening in the air
Gold in them hills and it's waiting for me there
4.Stay In The Country
The Marshall Tucker Band
I remember long ago when I was just a boy
Raised in the country that have old country stores
Chasing shadows down the road I remember well
Every story that my mama told in a house near the well
So I'll stay in the country, that's where I was born
Live my life by in Carolina, that's where I belong
I remember Sunday evening sitting outside
With all my uncles and my daddy by my side
We played those old songs too, we brought the night in
At the house in the country air I remember then
So I'll stay in the country, that's where I was born
Live my life by in Carolina, that's where I belong
So I'll stay in the country, that's where I was born
Live my life by in Carolina, that's where I belong
So I'll stay in the country, that's where I was born
Live my life by in Carolina, that's where I belong
Stay in the country
5.Texas On My Mind
The Marshall Tucker Band
I can't believe this time I'm leaving
All along you'd thought I'd stay
But a man's got to do what his heart
Tells him to come what may
So I guess this time tomorrow
I'll be on my way
'Cause I got Texas on my mind again today
I can't deny I've had this feeling
Every minute I've been gone
But someday you will see
You will forget me moving on
So when the sun comes up tomorrow
That's the end of my stay
'Cause I had Texas on my mind again today
Every time I hear an old guitar
Fiddled in harmony
It takes me back to what I long for
A place I long to be
So I guess I'll take this old guitar
I'll be up and on my way
'Cause I got Texas on my mind
Lord, I got Texas on my mind
I got Texas on my mind again today
6.I'll Be Home For Christmas
The Marshall Tucker Band
I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
7.Driving You Out Of My Mind
The Marshall Tucker Band
Passed your house today and saw you weren't at home
It's been so long
The memories of you still linger in my mind
So I drove on, I drove on
And I'm driving you out of my mind
On my way to town
But the miles keep getting longer
And those memories getting stronger
So I'm driving you out, out of my mind
Passed the church that we used to go to
Every Sunday till noon
You keep running through my mind, yes
So I drove on, I drove on
And I'm driving you out of my mind
On my way to town
But the miles keep getting longer
And those memories getting stronger
So I'm driving you out, out of my mind
The yellow lights keep moving down that lonely road
Turns pages in my mind
So I drove on
And I'm driving you out of my mind
On my way to town
But the miles keep getting longer
And those memories getting stronger
So I'm driving you out, out of my mind
Out of my mind, out of my mind
8.I Love You
The Marshall Tucker Band
I ain't never been with a woman
Long enough for my boots to get old
We've been together so long now
They both need re-soled
If I ever settle down, you'd be my kind
But it's a good time for me to head on down the line
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Can't be wrong
I'm the kinda man likes to get away
Like to start dreamin' about tomorrow today
Never said that I love you, even though it's so
Where's that duffel bag of mine it's time to go？
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Can't be wrong
I'm gonna be leavin' at the break of dawn
Wish you could come
But I don't need no woman taggin' along
So I'll sneak out that door
Couldn't stand to see you cry
I'd stay another year, if I saw a tear drop in your eye
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Can't be wrong
I never had a damn thing
But what I had, I had to leave it behind.
You're the hardest thing
I ever tried to get off my mind
Always something greener
On the other side of that hill
I was born a wrangler and a rambler
And I guess, I always will
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Can't be wrong
9.Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
The Marshall Tucker Band
Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Love is here to stay
From now on our troubles will be miles away
Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more
Through the years we'll always be together if the fate allows
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a Merry Little Christmas now
10.Anyway The Wind Blows Rider
The Marshall Tucker Band
I got some money in my pocket
I got some time to kill
I got some sunshine in a blue on blue sky
I got some bad news on my radio
I gotta jam in the south town
We go pick up an old girlfriend
And see can we leave all this behind
'Cos I'm an anyway the wind blows rider
With a dream like the river getting wider
Yes, I'm love lost
And I'm good times and bad gone by
I think I'll go down by the river
It never fails to deliver
That feeling of peace
I can't seem to find in the city
'Cos I'm an anyway the wind blows rider
With a dream like the river getting wider
Oh, I'm sunshine and I'm a blue on blue sky
I'm a line from a low zone
I'm a scene from a faded dream
'Cos I'm an anyway the wind blows rider
With a dream like the river getting wider
Yeah, I'm sunshine and I'm blue on blue sky
'Cos I'm an anyway the wind blows rider
With a dream like the river getting wider
Yeah, I'm love lost
And I'm good times and bad gone by
'Cos I'm an anyway the wind blows rider
With a dream like the river getting wider
11.I'll Be Alright Without You
The Marshall Tucker Band
Holding on to a memory
Trying to figure out just what went wrong
I wonder why you had to leave
But I'll be alright without you
Yes, I'll be alright without you
Trying to make the best of it
Holding back the tears 'most everyday
No, I break down, you know my heart won't quit
'Cause I'll be alright without you
And I hate to see tomorrow
Will it be lonely as today？
No amount of pain and sorrow
Can wash the tears away
When you decide to come back
Things will never be the same
You can't make love work
If your heart has lost the flame
Taking all the time we had
Well, I guess our love wasn't meant to be
Now the good times seem to turn all bad
But I'll be alright without you
Yes, I'll be alright without you
12.Desert Skies
The Marshall Tucker Band
Well, I'm ridin' along
Singin' the same ol' cowboy song
That's been sung a hundred times before
Ain't got nothin' but my name
And I'm the only man I know to blame
But I'm livin' I'm happy and I'm free
Just listen to the wind blow
Let it blow, let it blow
Sand over my trail
I got my saddle on the ground
And that ol' moon he can still be found
Hidin' in the desert sky
I like simple things in life like a prairie breeze
A good stout horse between my knees
Just bein' alone just bein' me
And when I die let me die with a dream in my mind
A smile on my face and no trouble behind
And no cross on my grave to show my restin' place
So I can listen to the wind blow
Let it blow, let it blow
Sand over my trail
I got my saddle on the ground
And that ol' moon he can still be found
Hidin' in the desert sky
Won't you bury me with my chaps on
And my six-gun strapped to my side
So I can watch the moon a hidin'
In the desert sky
Hidin' in the desert sky
Hidin' in the desert sky
Hidin' in the desert sky
13.County Road
The Marshall Tucker Band
Working out my time, on that ol' County Road
So much on my mind, that it's ready to explode
I never got a chance to explain the things I did
I know I never will, they'll just work me till I'm dead
I got twenty-seven years till I can go
And as long as I am here, my Lord
The only thing I know is that County Road
The sun don't seem to shine on that ol' County Road
They will beat you till you're blind as you stagger with the
load
The bosses lay their weights on your back until it bleeds
They will laugh and tell you how you're gonna pay for all your
deeds
I got twenty-seven years till I can go
And as long as I am here, my Lord
The only thing I know is that County Road
Running out of time on that ol' County Road
The hole's too deep to climb on that ol' County Road
And no one gives a damn if you live or if you die
And no one understands and I doubt they'll ever cry
I got twenty-seven years till I can go
And as long as I am here, my Lord
The only place I know is that County Road
Well, I'm walking down that line, that County Road
There the sun don't seem to shine, that County Road
Oh, I'm walking down that line on that County Road
The sun don't seem to shine on that County Road
14.Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
The Marshall Tucker Band
Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
Since we've no place to go
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I've brought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
When we finally say goodnight
How I hate to go out in a storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home, I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dying
And my dear, we're still goodbying
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
As long as you love me so
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
15.Everyday (I Have The Blues)
The Marshall Tucker Band
Lord, everyday, everyday
Everyday, everyday I sing the blues
Goin' to find me a preacher man

I said, â½Everyday and Lord
Everyday I sing the blues'

Low down, dirty rotten stinkin' blues
16.White Christmas
The Marshall Tucker Band
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
'May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white'
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
'May your days, may your days
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white'
17.Going Down The Road Feeling Bad
The Marshall Tucker Band
Going down the road feeling bad
Going down the road feeling bad
Going down the road feeling bad, oh lord
Don't wanna be treated this a way
Won't somebody help me ease this pain？
Won't somebody help me ease this pain？
Won't somebody help me ease this pain, oh Lord？
Don't wanna be feeling this way
Going down the road feeling bad
Going down the road feeling bad
Going down the road feeling bad, oh Lord

Won't somebody help me get away from here？
Won't somebody help me get away from here？

18.And The Hills
The Marshall Tucker Band
Jennie Dances at a café down the road
We throw her dollar bills and she puts on a show
No one really knows her, no one takes the blame
We just enjoy her total lack of shame
And she's proud to have a body that can kill
And we don't mind the valleys and the hills
And the hills
Brenda likes to play on chairs and shimmy to the beat
Wearin' fancy underwear that keeps you in your seat
Leslie jammin' at the pole and makin' them bodies ache
People come from miles around, just to see her shake
And she's proud to have a body that can kill
And we don't mind the valleys and the hills
And the hills
So if you're ever passin' through this side of town
Just come on in, there's always somethin' goin' down
More sights than you can take in seven days a week
They wrote the book if it's enlightenment you seek
And she's proud to have a body that can kill
And we don't mind the valleys and the hills
And the hills
And she's proud to have a body that can kill
And we don't mind the valleys and the hills
And the hills
19.Mr. President
The Marshall Tucker Band
We've taken all you've given
But it's gettin' hard to make a livin'
Mr. President have pity on the working man
We're not asking you to love us
You may place yourself high above us
Mr. President have pity on the working man
I know it may sound funny
But people ev'ry where are runnin' out of money
We just can't make it by ourself
It is cold and the wind is blowing
We need something to keep us gong
Mr. President have pity on the working man
Maybe you've cheated, maybe you've lied
Maybe you have lost your mind
Maybe you're only thinking 'bout yourself
Too late to run, too late to cry now
The time has come for us to say goodbye now
Mr. President have pity on the working man
Mr. President have pity on the working man
20.Time Don't Pass By Here
The Marshall Tucker Band
Last night I dreamed I laid me down and died
And lots of people came and signed their name
But only a few of them cried
They put me in a big pine box
And dropped me in a deep dark hole
And the preacher said a prayer for my lost soul
Well they covered me up and left me there to rot
And the guy next to me said, 'Friend, I see
That's a mighty fine box you've got'
He seemed kind of friendly
So I asked him the time of day
I heard him laughing
Then I know I heard the devil say
Time don't pass by here no more
Just empty space and fear
No plane to fly, no wine to pour
Only pain to replace the tears
You can never recall your memories
You can never retrace the years
You'll cry but no one hears
'Cause time don't pass by here
Well, I woke up
And wiped a tear away from my eye
And me and Mary Jane made a paper plane
Just to see how high we'd fly
She's just like each passing day
She's there and then she's gone
And I'm the one that's always gettin' stoned
Seems it's hard for me to find where I belong
But I think that I'm the happiest
When I'm singing the saddest songs
When it comes my turn to die
And when I'm really gone
I hope the devil writes these words
Upon my tombstone
Time don't pass by here no more
Just empty space and fear
No plane to fly, no wine to pour
Only pain to replace the tears
You can never recall your memories
You can never retrace the years
You'll cry but no one hears
'Cause time don't pass by here
You'll cry but no one hears
'Cause time don't pass by here
21.Blue Ridge Mountain Sky
The Marshall Tucker Band
It's a lonesome road and a hard way to live
But it's the only life that I know
I meet some people a-travelin' around
But home's always the best place to go
And there's a lonesome feelin' in my mind
A feelin' that I can't leave behind
Carolina's where I'm at and I'll always hang my hat
Under those Blue Ridge Mountain skies
Well I got me a woman back home
She gave me a baby too
And she stands by my lovin' side
And does anything I ask her to
And there's a lonesome feelin' in my mind
A feelin' I can't seem to leave behind
Carolina's where I'm at and I'll always hang my hat
Under those Blue Ridge Mountain skies
There's an old man sittin' in a rockin' chair
Who's got the best beagle dog in the county, I've been told
But his shotgun a-done and got too rusty
That old beagle dog he done grown a little too old
As he stares up into Heaven
I'm sure I know the reason why
He's a-thinkin' about that promised land
In them Blue Ridge Mountain skies
And it's a lonesome feelin' in my mind
A feelin' I can't seem to leave behind
Carolina's where I'm at and I'll always hang my hat
Under those Blue Ridge Mountain skies
Blue Ridge Mountain skies
22.Low Down Ways
The Marshall Tucker Band
She said that she were leavin'
And that was yesterday
She packed her bags cryin'
And slowly she walked away
I ain't never seen a woman
Who could love me for a day
I ain't never seen nobody
Who could take my low down ways
She said that she was tired
And was going to carry on
But I will always think of her
And the memories that linger on
I ain't never seen a woman
Who could love me for a day
I ain't never seen nobody
Who could take my low down ways
I ain't never seen a woman
Who could love me for a day
I ain't never seen nobody
Who could take my low down ways
I ain't never seen nobody
Who could take my low down ways
23.24 Hours At a Time
The Marshall Tucker Band
I've been down around Houston Texas
Where the sun shines most of the time
I've been drivin' about six hours
Tryin' to reach that Arkansas line
But Texarkana is an hour ahead
And I've got to keep my wheels rollin'
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, yeah
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 is 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
Feel the same way, feel the same way
Feel the same way
Feel the same way
Feel the same way
Feel the same way
24.Good 'Ole Hurtin' Song
The Marshall Tucker Band
This 'ole beer gut I got don't get no smaller
If I thought it'd do any good I'd go ahead and call her
I've been drinkin' up my pain since she's been gone, yeah
For every fool there's a good boss too
And the same 'ole sad, sad song
Yeah, the beer would go a lot farther with a good 'ole hurtin'
song
I drink a few with a song or two and it never takes me long
And as long as I got the money I'll stay where I belong
Yeah, the beer would go a lot farther with a good 'ole hurtin'
song
My friends keep tellin' me, boy, you oughta quit it
But they ain't the ones that have to drink to forget it
And forgettin' don't come easy when you're sober and all alone
So I pop my tops and play the jukebox all the pain is gone
Yeah, the beer would go a lot farther with a good 'ole hurtin'
song
I drink a few with a song or two and it never takes me long
And as long as I got the money I'll stay where I belong
Yeah, the beer would go a lot farther with a good 'ole hurtin'

The Marshall Tucker Band
You say you love me
I don't know, I wonder why
You, yes, you say you need me
I don't know, I wonder why
Maybe tomorrow I will know
Maybe tomorrow it will show
You say you need me
I don't know, I wonder why
You could not want to love me

The Marshall Tucker Band
I know that sometimes
You think I don't love you
And I can't act like
We just hit it all the time
And I can say, without a doubt
You're the only love I'll ever find
And in my own way, I love you
In my own way, I need you
In my own way
I got you and your love
There's a special place in my heart
It's occupied by you
There ain't no one on God's Earth
Gonna take your place
And I can say without a doubt
You're the only love I'd ever find
And in my own way, I love you
In my own way, I need you
In my own way

27.Am I The Kind Of Man
The Marshall Tucker Band
Am I the kind of man
That lives by his heart
Who believes in God Almighty
Not fearin' the devil or the dark
Always there when you need me to be
Hold your hand, say I love you
In those hours of need
Wish you could close your eyes
Truthfully one day say them things to me
Am I the kind of man
That thinks he's strong
To stand up in a crowd
And admit when he's wrong
When you're in trouble
To no one else you'll ever plead
Knock on my door, say honey
You're the man I needed to see
Wish you could close your eyes
Truthfully one day say them things to me
I know I ain't been much but I'm tryin'
Things have been rough lately, I'm not denyin'
But I'm gonna try somehow to be a better man
'Cause my heart and soul is tryin' as hard as it can
Am I the kind of man
Who believes in peace
Who'll stand up and fight in a minute
Over something that he believes
Loves all his brothers
Treats his elders with respect
Never heard me say that I don't give a damn
What the hell, who gives a heck
Wish you could close your eyes
Truthfully one day say them things to me
'Cause you're the only woman alive
That can make that kind of man out of me
28.Singing Rhymes
The Marshall Tucker Band
Lord, it seems, my whole life
Ain't been nothing but trouble
When I try to straighten things out
Hell, things double
Ever since I met you
Doing what a man's supposed to do for me
Now a lot of folks think that love is wrong
They don't know what's going on
'Cos ever since the day they told me your name
This old heart of mine has been under lock and chain
Well, I always knew that you made the sun shine
I never thought I'd see the day I'd make you mine
I'll always be singing rhymes about love
Don't want you to think
I'm coming on a little too strong
Just wanna let you know
Ain't nothing going wrong
And everything I ever tried to do
It just comes right back to you
I guess, that's what love's supposed to do
I'll always be singing rhymes
I'll always be writing lines about love
Yeah, everything I ever tried to do
It just comes right back to you
I guess, that's what love's supposed to do
I'll always be singing rhymes
(I'll always be singing rhymes)
I'll always be writing lines
(I'll always be writing lines)
I'll always be singing rhymes
I'll always be writing lines
I'll always be writing lines about love
29.Property Line
The Marshall Tucker Band
Well, my idea of a good time
Is walkin' my property line
And knowin' the mud on my boots is mine
Watchin' them leaves
Turnin' from green to gold
There ain't no way in this world
That can make a man feel old
That's when I get lovin' on my mind
I get lovin' on my mind
And if someone wants to know
Why I'm a-hurryin' all the time
You just tell 'em I got lovin'
Oh sweet lovin', tell 'em I got lovin' on my mind
Well, there's two things I think are pretty
One's a black Arabian mare
And the other one is a woman
Who you can't stand to stare at
Ah, when that happens I get weak at both knees
If I'm out a-choppin' wood
I leave the ax in the tree
'Cause I get lovin' on my mind
I get lovin' on my mind
And if someone wants to know
Why I'm a-hurryin' all the time
You just tell 'em I got lovin'
Oh sweet lovin', tell 'em I got lovin' on my mind
Just tell 'em I got lovin', oh, sweet lovin'
Tell 'em I got lovin' on my mind
My idea of a good time
Is walkin' my property line
30.Dream Lover
The Marshall Tucker Band
Was a time when friends of mine
Said love was just a game
Find a girl and give her a whirl
Then move on, all the same
But I was never happy
Always searching for this one
The dream to be my lover
And the dream she'd give me a son
I've searched this whole world over
'Bout a hundred times or more
Always looking for a girl I could love
Forever more
Dream lady, sexy Sadie, oh
I've dreamed all my life of you
Dream lover, there's no other, oh girl
You could make all my dreams come true
Dream lover, oh, where are you？
If I could find you I'd love you true
Dream lover you're in my mind
Oh, lord, why does love have to be so unkind？
But I found a girl with loving
One to share my hopes and dreams
A friend to stand beside me
And the lover of my dreams
Dream lover, oh, where are you？
If I could find you I'd love you true
Dream lover you're in my mind
Oh, lord, why does love have to be so unkind？
31.Now She's Gone
The Marshall Tucker Band
I had a lady, I thought was so fine
I knew she loved me, she stayed on my mind
And then one morning I woke up and she was gone
There was a note layin' by the bedside, tellin' me she's gone
And now, she's gone, gone, gone, just gone
And now, she's gone, gone, gone, just gone
Now, she's gone, gone, gone, just gone
She found another love, much better than me
Treats her like a lady, like she oughta be
And now she's happy, Lord, so happy and free
Don't have to worry, Lord, 'bout a man like me
And now, she's gone, gone, gone, just gone
Now, she's gone, gone, gone, just gone
Now, she's gone, gone, gone, just gone
She found another, much better than me
Don't have to worry 'bout a man like me
And now, she's gone, gone, gone, just gone
Now, she's gone, gone, gone, just gone
Now, she's gone, gone, gone, just gone
And now, she's gone, gone, gone, just gone
32.Never Trust A Stranger
The Marshall Tucker Band
We were riding through the flatlands
We were searching for two prisoner
Who just broke jail, a tall one and a lean one
Rode a chestnut stallion
And the word was that the main man
Well, he was mean as hell
An outlaw is a man
Who never understands
A word called danger
He learns to shoot and ride as a child
And to never trust a stranger
And he's always called a better man
We chased him to the border
All the way to El Paso
The ride was long, the ride was hard
But the sheriff said we can't let 'em go
He said, â½Let me tell you something
I've been tracking for a long time
They never trust a stranger
And they take care of their ownâ
An outlaw is a man
Who never understands
A word called danger
He learns to shoot and ride as a child
And to never trust a stranger
And he's always called a better man
Today's man is an outlaw
On that long road to freedom
You work him to take his pride
And then you try to cheat him
Then one day you figure out
It's a long long story
An outlaw is a man who takes care of his own
An outlaw is a man
Who never understands
A word called danger
He learns to shoot and ride as a child
And to never trust a stranger
And he's always called a better man
33.Melody Ann
The Marshall Tucker Band
Many a time, I feel so lonesome
Many a day, I've been so doggone tired
When I get lonesome, yes I do, I think about true love
And when I want true love, I think about you
So I'm singing, this here song, for Melody Ann
And I'm so doggone proud
That I'm her man and she's all mine
My Melody Ann
Been many a morning, since I've seen you
Seen many a sunrise, yes
Lord knows I drove many miles
But you know the best thing about going home
Is to see you, standing there, with a smile
So I'm singing, this here song, for Melody Ann
And I'm so doggone proud
That I'm her man and she's all mine
My Melody Ann
But you know the best thing about coming home
Is to see you, standing with a smile
So I'm singing, this here song, for Melody Ann
And I'm so doggone proud
That I'm her man and she's all mine
My Melody Ann
I'm her man and she's all mine
My Melody Ann
I'm her man and she's all mine
My Melody Ann
I love ya darlin'
34.Silent Night
The Marshall Tucker Band
Sleep in heavenly peace
Oh, sleep in heavenly peace
Well, silent night, such a holy night
Shepherds quake at the very sight
Glories streams from Heaven afar
Heavenly Hosts sing Alleluia
Christ, the Savior is born
You know, Christ, the Savior is born
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
'Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant, so, so tender and mild
Christ, the Savior is born
You know, Christ, the Savior is born
35.Jingle Bells
The Marshall Tucker Band
Dashing through the snow in a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go, laughing all the way
Bells on bob tails ring, making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing a sleighing song tonight
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
Hey, jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
A day or two ago, I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright was seated by my side
The horse was lean and lank, misfortune seemed his lot
We got into a drifted bank and then we got up sot
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
Hey, jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
Hey, jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
36.Life Is A Song
The Marshall Tucker Band
Livin' their life in a song
Think of a woman, a woman so strong
She leaves her man free to roam
With sweet understanding she lives with his ways
Livin' her life in a song
Livin' her life in a song
Think of a woman left lonely
Think of a woman so strong
With love as her guide she stands by my side
Livin' her life in a song
Livin' her life in a song
Well, I'm writin' this song
For the girl that I met on a
Misty morning somewhere by the sea
I'm tellin' you true, her love brought me through
Her love's the thing that set me free
Her love's the thing that set me free
Think of a woman left lonely
Think of a woman so strong
With love as her guide she stands by my side
Livin' her life in a song
Livin' her life in a song
