All Night Train 03:38
lyrics

I'd like to ride on an all night train and all the next day too watching the moon and the towns roll by I'd stay, I'd spend the days till I see you But hours and hour on that get away can't take me to you Out on a limb just settled in without you I started to choke and the whole branch broke and I fell through I fell through Hours and hours, hours and hours, hours and hours Hours and hours of falling through

Borrowed a dream and hit the road never felt a lighter load always did what she was told put her dreams on hold Drove as far as she could go didn't miss the radio tie flew by like every town she didn't stop to look around Chorus Way down in the Blue Ridge Mountains Where the sun shines like gold at night you hear the rivers they run like buffalo She could blame the alcohol or even blame the saints for making her believe life is what it ain't Chorus

The Only One 02:47

Bless this home And bless this child I read it everyday On the kitchen wall I’m a fool every morning I drink every night You’re the only one I’ve kept in my sight Blame it on the past It never goes away Will I ever see the end? Of choices I made I’m a star every morning I burn out with the lights You’re the only one I’ve kept in my sight Oh lord let me be free from Saying things that I don’t mean and Oh lord I don’t believe in Everything for a real good reason

The Narrows 02:58
lyrics

One lonely thing on the ocean Drifting away and lonesome I dreamed we danced out of time Thought you we’re no longer mine Ship sailed away through the narrows In love’s ocean of sorrows I dreamed of dark clouds and rain What if I never make it back What if the skies are too cloudy What if the tides are too rowdy Would you be there to hold me Never aware or knowing One lonely thing on the ocean Drifting away and lonesome I dreamed we danced out of time Thought you we’re no longer, Thought you were no longer mine

Don’t know why I’m here anymore Think I’m finally finished Headin for the door And I’d stay If it wasn’t for me Comfort was in my way Now I’m gonna leave I’m moving on from a darker place To a brighter one Don’t know when I don’t know how Maybe sooner maybe now I’m moving on You can talk me down But not enough Something’s gonna give right now And I’m not giving up For all the budding trees I wanna see the summer time Flowers and the leaves I’m moving on from a darker place To a brighter one Don’t know when I don’t know how Maybe sooner maybe now I’m moving on I’m moving on from a darker place To a brighter one Don’t know when I don’t know how Maybe sooner maybe now I’m moving on I’m moving on

You’re shit outta whiskey I’m shit outta luck And I got a crocodile On my lap Think I’ll snap these pearly buttons And gettyup Outta here Gonna head on out the Sixty-one Long lonesome you know the one Call that sister of mine to come on down Get me outta here Call that sister of mine Call that sister of mine Tell her to come on down the 61 Call that sister of mine Tell her to come on down Get me outta here The way it’s going I won’t make it All the others Can take it I tried getting out I was too deep And that crocodile Well he never sleeps Call that sister of mine Call that sister of mine Tell her to come on down the 61 Call that sister of mine Tell her to come on down Get me outta here

I’m going where the wind blows And the sun doesn’t shines It’s cold its lonely but it’s mine I go there sometimes but not for sometime I’m going where the wind blows And the sun doesn’t shine I don’t know just when My train is coming But I know it could be anytime I bought me a ticket cause I new I was going I’m going where the wind blows And the sun doesn’t shine If you come over to see me sometime To tell me it’s over and it’s time to come home We’ll keep on moving on together Where the wind never blows And the sun shines
