1.From Small Things(Big Things One Day Come)
At 16 she quit high school
To make a fortune in the promise land
Got a job behind the counter
Of an all-night hamburger stand
She wrote faithfully home to mama：
'now mama, don't you worry none'
From small things, mama, big things one day come
It was late one friday
As he pulled in out of the dark.
He was tall and handsome;
First she took his order; then she took his heart.
They bought a house up on a hillside
Where little feet once had run
From small things, mama, big things one day come.
Good love is fleeting,
It's sad but it's true
But when your heart is bleeding,
You don't wanna hear the news
She packed her bags; went to wyoming with a real estate man
They drove down to tampa in an el dorado grande
She writes home 'dear mama, life is heaven in the sun'
From small things, mama, big things one day come
She shot him dead
On a sunny florida road,
But when they caught her asll she said was
She couldn't stand the way he drove.
Back home, lonesome johnny
Waits for his baby's parole;
He sits high up on a hillside,
Where the wyoming river flows.
At his feet, and almost grown now,
Sits a daughter and a handsome son.
From small things, mama, big things one day come
2.Waitin' On A Dark Eyed Gal
Well the midnight train can come and go without me;
Oh i don't need no taxi back to town.
I think i'll just stay right here in this deep old light,
Was supposed to meet someone here tonight,
Now i'm sittin here thinking,
Waiting on a dark-eyed gal.
No, i don't mind the rain; i never even noticed
And i don't feel the cold, it wouldn't matter anyhow,
As a matter of fact i could stay till the break of day,
I don't see as i'm in anybody's way;
I'm just sittin here thinking,
Waiting on a dark eyed gal.
She said she'd meet me at the station,
Don't believe she'll keep me waiting very long
Very long.
She never was one to let me know her mind,
So i'll stay right here, just doing my time
Just sitting here thinking,
Waiting on a dark eyed gal.
Yeah, the midnight train has come and gone without me,
I don't need no taxi back to town.
I think i'll just stay right here in this deep old light,
Was supposed to meet someone here tonight;
Now i'm sittin' here thinking,
Waiting on a dark eyed gal;
Yeah i'm just sitting here thinking,
Waiting on a dark-eyed gal.
3.Junior's Grill
Mashed potatos, lima beans,
Redeye gravy, collard greens,
Cutest waitress you've ever seen,
Down at junior's grill.
Sweet ginger brings your plate,
Always hot and never late;
Top it off with a chocolate cake,
Down at junior's grill.
It's heaven with a corner booth,
That's the truth;
Chrome and naugahyde;
It's cool inside.
The jukebox never stops,
There's coffee in the pot,
So come and get your fill
At junior's grill.
Ginger takes her break at 10,
Lays aside her pad and pen,
Punches up 'stand by your man'
Down at junior's grill.
I seen her dancing, she seen me look;
Oh lord, what a chance i took,
Cause ginger's soft on that big ole cook
Down at junior's grill.
It's heaven with a corner booth, that's the truth;
Chrome and naugahyde; it's cool inside.
The jukebox never stops, there's coffee in the pot,
So come and get your fill at junior's grill.
So come and get your fill at junior's grill.
4.Blow Out The Stars, Turn Off The Moon
Here on the hilltop where we fell in love
Many moons later, now we're giving up
I start the engine, you start to cry
It's a beautiful memory but a sad sad goodbye.
How many times have we wished on a star,
Wrapped up in a quilt on the hood of my car
We saw halley's comet in lunar eclipse
And i sure saw heaven when i tasted your lips.
So blow out the stars, turn off the moon
Fade out the crickets and the nightingale's tune
Take down the magnolias that ride the soft wind
Another love story has come to an end
When our love was new as the first evening star
We both said i'll worship you just as you are
Then i tried to change you, girl, and i don't know why
You tried to change me, hey we might as well try.
To blow out the stars, turn off the moon
Fade out the crickets and the nightingale's tune
Take down the magnolias that ride the soft wind
Another love story has come to an end.
Take down the magnolias that ride the soft wind
Another love story has come to an end

6.Just Enough Ashland City
7.Hillbilly Hollywood
I can still remember my first guitar
Bright and shiny like a brand new car
Even took it with me when i went to school
And i practiced every day till i got real good
I learned every lick on the radio
From wabash cannon to go johnny go
I majored in rhythm with a minor in blues
Then i hit the road with my blue suede shoes
And i dreamed of seeing my name in lights
Grand ole opry on on a saturday night
Standing where my heroes stood
Hillbilly hollywood
I played some bars where you never wanna go
From oklahoma city down to tupelo
My ears would be ringing like an old fire bell
When i'd lay me down in some cheap hotel
And i dreamed of seeing my name in lights
Grand ole opry on a saturday night
Standing where my heroes stood
Hillbilly hollywood
And i pray before too long
They will hear my song
And i dreamed of seeing my name in lights
Grand ole opry on a saturday night
Standing where my heroes stood
I dreamed grand old opry on a saturday night standing . .
Hillbilly hollywood hillbilly hollywood hillbilly hollywood
8.Snowballs
If i could borrow from the future
And i'd spend it with you, darling, in a very special
I'd treat you to a sundae on a saturday afternoon
And we'd spend the night together throwing snowballs at the moon
We'd be aiming high and we'd be aiming low,
Winding up together, lord, and lettin' them snowballs go
And after every throw we'd share a little kiss
Make sweet love together every time we'd miss
Oh i'd like to meet the artist who painted up the sky
And i'd ask him what that color was he brushed against your eyes
And could he paint a picture of two lovers in one balloon
Who go flying off together to throw snowballs at the moon
We'd be aiming high, we'd be aiming low
Winding up together, lord and letting them snowballs go
And after every throw we'd share a little kiss
Make sweet love together everytime we'd miss
If we could stop the world from spinning take it nice and slow i
bet that we could hit once just before we go
But we keep aiming high, we keep aiming low chorus
9.Wishing Well
Wishing well, wish me well
On a dream bought with a penny
Wishing well, time will tell
I can see that there are so many
Lonely faces stare from your pool
And i can't bear to see a fool tonight
So make it right wishing well
Wishing well, could you tell, as i stood beside her
Did you know she would go
Then why did you hide it
If you knew then i'd be without her now
You could have let me know somehow
Can't wish and tell, wishing well
Wishing well, cast a spell, send her love's sweet emotion
Do your part, touch her heart with truest devotion
If there's a chance, i won't believe we're thru
Show me wishes still come true
It's up to you, wishing well
Show me wishes still come true,
It's up to you, wishing well
Its up to you, wishing well
It's up to you, wishing well
10.You Made Life Good Again
I'm always looking for a minute that we can steal
Cause i need more of how you make me feel
I used to be the king of wasted time
Cause it made no difference till i made you mine
Now i wake up in the morning with a smile on my face
Can't get enough of the human race
Ain't loved like this since i can't remember when
Baby you made life good again oh yeah darlin you made life good
again
I like the way you talk and the way you look when it comes to
loving you wrote the book
Cause when you kiss me . . . tell me what part of heaven did you
come from
Now i wake up in the morning with a smile on my face
Ain't loved like this since i can't remember when
Baby you made life good again oh yeah darlin you made life good
again i was lonely, oh so lonely won't be lonely again i wake up
in the morning with a smile on my face can't get enough of the
hu
Ace ain't loved like this since i can't remember when baby oh
yeah darlin you made life good again you made life good again
