You
got your big girls
Now
you have your young one too
Wonder if someday I
can have them
The way I once had
you
I remember your
crazy remarks
We’d get drunk and
go out after dark
Searchin’ for
someone we could take home
(You don’t wanna
be alone)
(You don’t wanna
see the)
Sun go down
(You don’t wanna
open the door)
And see her go
(One step and
tomorrow comes)
It’s tomorrow
(Two steps and
she’s off with someone)
There she goes
(Three steps and
it’s all you know)
You’ll be old
(You’ll be old)
She’ll be gone
(She’ll be gone)
So what are you
gonna do about me
I’ll be there when
you have no one else
Spot in the ocean in
the south’s holy land
I’ll be there, be
your friend
Hold on strong,
don’t let go
There’ll never be
no one to take your place
So don’t you wanna
reach out
And take my hand
(You don’t wanna
be alone)
No, no, no
(You don’t wanna
see the)
Sun go down
(You don’t wanna
open the door)
And see her go
(One step and
tomorrow comes)
It’s tomorrow
(Two steps and
she’s off with someone)
There she goes
(Three steps and
it’s)
All you know
You’ll be old
(You’ll be old)
She’ll be
(She’ll be gone)
She’ll be gone
yeah
Aaaaahhhhh
(You don’t wanna
be alone)
No, no, no
(You don’t wanna)
See the sun go down
(You don’t wanna)
Open the door
See her go
See her gone na no
(One step and
tomorrow comes)
It’s tomorrow
(Two steps and
she’s off with someone)
There she goes
(Three steps and
it’s all you know)
You’ll be old
(You’ll be old)
She’ll be gone
(She’ll be gone)
(One step and
tomorrow comes)
It’s tomorrow
(Two steps and
she’s off with someone)
There she goes
(Three steps and
it’s all you know)
You’ll be old
(You’ll be old)
She’ll be gone
(She’ll be gone)
Hold
My Hand
With a little love
And some tenderness
We'll walk upon the
water
We'll rise above the
mess
With a little peace
And some harmony
We'll take the world
together
We'll take'em by the
hand
'Cause I got a hand
for you, oh
'Cause I wanna run
with you
Yesterday I saw you
standin’ there
Your head was down
your eyes were red
No comb had touched
your hair
I said get up
And let me see you
smile
We'll take a walk
together
Walk the road awhile
'cause
('Cause I got a hand
for you)
I got a hand for you
('Cause I wanna run
with you)
Won't you let me run
with you yeah
(Hold my hand)
Want you to hold my
hand
(Hold my hand)
I'll take you to a
place where you can be
(Hold my hand)
Anything you wanna
be because
I wanna love you the
best that
The best that I can
You see I was wasted
And I was wasting
time
'Till I thought
about your problems
I thought about your
crimes
Then I stood up
And then I screamed
aloud
I don't wanna be
part of your problems
Don't wanna be one
of your crowd no
('Cause I got a hand
for you)
I got a hand for you
('Cause I wanna run
with you)
Oh won't you let me
run with you and
(Hold my hand)
Want you to hold my
hand
(Hold my hand)
I'll take you to the
promise land
(Hold my hand)
Maybe we can't
change the world but
I wanna love you the
best that
The best that I can
Yeah
Oh
Let me won’t,
won’t you let me
Let me let me hold
(Hold my hand)
Want you to hold my
hand
(Hold my hand)
I'll take you to a
place where you can be
(Hold my hand)
Anything you wanna
be because
I, oh, no, no, no,
no, no
(Hold my hand)
Want you to hold my
hand
(Hold my hand)
And I'll take you to
the promise land
(Hold my hand)
Maybe we can't
change the world but
I wanna love you the
best that
The best that I can
Oh best that I can
Let
Her Cry
She sits alone by a
lamppost
Tryin’ to find the
thought
That’s escaped her mind
She says Dad’s the
one I love the most
But Stipe’s not
far behind
She never lets me in
Only tells me
where’s she’s been
When she’s had too
much to drink
I say that I don’t
care I just run my hands
Through her dark
hair then I
Pray to God you
gotta help me fly away
And just let her cry
If the tears fall
down like rain
Let her sing
If it eases all her
pain
Let her go
Let her walk right
out on me
And if the sun comes
up tomorrow
Let her be, let her
be
This mornin’ I
woke up alone
Found a note standin’
by the phone
Sayin’ baby maybe
I’ll be back some day
I wanted to look for
you
You walked in
I
didn’t know just what I should do
So I sat back down
Had a beer and felt sorry for myself
Sayin’ let her cry
If the tears fall
down like rain
Let her sing
If it eases all her
pain
Let her go
Let her walk right
out on me
And if the sun comes
up tomorrow
Let her be, let her
be
Aaaaahhhhh
Ooooohhhhh
No, no, no, no
Let her cry
If the tears fall
down like rain
Let her sing
If it eases all her
pain
Let her go
Let her walk right
out on me
And if the sun comes
up tomorrow
Let her be,
aaaaahhhhh
Last night I tried
to leave
Cried so much I
could not believe
She was the same
girl
I fell in love with
long ago
She went in the back
to get high
I sat down on my
couch and cried
Yellin’ oh mama
please help me
Won’t you hold my
hand and
Let her cry
If the tears fall
down like rain
Let her sing
If it eases all her
pain
Let her go
Let her walk right
out on me
And if the sun comes
up tomorrow
Let her be
Let her cry
If the tears fall
down like rain
Let her sing
If it eases all her
pain
Let her go
Let her walk right
out on me
And if the sun comes
up tomorrow
Let her be, let her
be
Only
Wanna Be With You
You and me
We come from
different worlds
You like to laugh at
me
When I look at other
girls
Sometimes you’re
crazy
And you wonder why
I’m such a baby
‘Cause the
Dolphins make me cry
Well there’s
nothin’ I can do
I’ve been lookin’
for a girl like you
You look at me
You got nothin’
left to say
I’m only mad at
you until I get my way
I won’t dance
You won’t sing
I just wanna love
you
But you wanna wear
my ring
Well there’s
nothin’ I can do
I only wanna be with
you
You can call me your
fool
I only wanna be with
you
Put on a little
Dylan
Sittin’ on a fence
I say that line is
great
You ask me what it
meant by
Said I shot a man
named Gray
Took his wife to
Italy
She inherited a
million bucks
And when she died it
came to me
I can’t help it if
I’m lucky
I only wanna be with
you
Ain’t Bobby so
cool
I only wanna be with
you
Yeah I’m tangled
up in blue
I only wanna be with
you
You can call me your
fool
Only wanna be with
you
Sometimes I wonder
If it’ll ever end
You get so mad at me
When I go out with
my friends
Sometimes you’re
crazy
And you wonder why
I’m such a baby
yeah
The Dolphins make me
cry
Well there’s
nothing I can do
I only wanna be with
you
You can call me your
fool
I only wanna be with
you
Yeah I’m tangled
up in blue
I only wanna be with
you
Only
wanna be with you
Only
wanna be with you
Only
wanna be with you
Running
From An Angel
Don’t look a gift
horse in the mouth
Come on try and tell
me
What you’re talkin’ about
Those things
you’re dealin’ with
You’re livin’ a lie
Every time I see you
it makes me wanna cry
Sometimes we’d
laugh and talk
Seems like yesterday
Then you let the
white horse come
And take you away
They came to get
you, it was cold black
The wheels were in motion
There was no turnin’ back
Running from an angel
Runnin’ to the devil, devil yeah
Running from an angel
Runnin’ to the devil
I gave up on you a
long time ago
But there’s
somethin’ I want you to know
Your lyin’ and
cheatin’ really tore us apart
Please don’t come
home
If you’re gonna break my momma’s heart
Running from an angel
Runnin’ to the devil, devil yeah
Running from an angel
Runnin’ to the devil
Running, running,
running
Don’t make me cry

You’re running,

You’re running running running running
No no no no na na no
Running from an angel
Runnin’ to the devil, devil, devil, devil
Running from an
angel
It’s time to say
goodbye
It’s time to make
me cry
Go do what you gotta
do
I still love you
Running, running,
running, running
I’m
Goin’ Home
Mama please don’t
go
Won’t you stay
here for one more day
I’ve been your boy
for so long now
There’s so much I,
I still have to say
Sky rips open
And I
held my heart in my hand
Like a soldier on
his very last day
Cried myself to
sleep that night
And I listened
As I heard the
angels sing sha la la
Sha la la la, sha la
la la, I’m goin’ home
Sha la la la, la la
la la, I’m goin’ home
Oh, somethin’
inside makes me scream
Oohh
How could God take
you from a little boy
He’ll be alright,
he’s by my side
He’s not little
boy, he’s my pride and joy
Sha la la la la
(Sha la la la, la la
la la, I’m goin’ home)
Take me home
(Sha la la la, la la
la la, I’m goin’ home)
Take me home now
Summer on the radio
when the phone rings
And it was Jeanette
Sayin’ boy we had
to let her go
I begged no, no not
yet
You left six of us
to fend for ourselves
Guess it’s just
part of someone’s master plan
We’ll see you
laugh
‘Cause you’re my
best friend
You’re the light
of the lamb
And I smile when the angels sing sha la
(Sha la la la, la la
la la, I’m goin’ home)
Take me home
(Sha la la la, la la
la la, I’m goin’ home)
Hear the angels sing
sha la
(Sha la la la, la la
la la, I’m goin’ home)
(Sha la la la, la la
la la, I’m goin’ home)
No, no
No not mama, no not
mama no no no no no
Why why why why why
Sha la la la
Drowning
Trouble with the
world
Is we're too busy to think about it, all right
Why is there a rebel
flag hangin’
From the state house walls
Tired of hearin'
this shit about heritage not hate
Time to make the
world a better place
Why must we hate one
another
Well no matter what
we gotta live together
Just ‘cause you
don't look like me
Tell me what do you see
When we pass on the
street
What do you wanna see
P.E.'s comin’
Is all I gotta say
You wanna turn and run away
They're just tellin’
you how they see it
Right or wrong they
don't care
You wish that they would quit
Drowning in a sea of
tears
Hatred tryin’ to
hide your fears
Livin’ only for
yourself
Hatin’ everybody
else
‘Cause they don't
look like you
Nanci singin’ it's
a hard life wherever you go
About some fat
racist livin’ in Chicago
Trying to teach his
kids to hate everyone
Well tell me why is
that something
You wanna teach your son
Why must we hate one
another
When the people in
the church
They tell me you're my brother
You don't walk like me
Tell him, you don't talk like me, saying
Go back to Africa, I
just don't understand
Drowning in a sea of
tears
Hatred tryin’ to
hide your fears
Livin’ only for
yourself
Hatin’ everybody
else
‘Cause they don't
look like you
Don’t look like
you oohh
ooooohhhhh
(Drowning)
Yeah I’m tryin’
to be someone
That he can look up to but
(Hatred)
When I walk down the street
Tell me what do you see
I'm a man, I'm a
man, I'm a man
(Livin’)
No I'm not like you
Why do you hate me
so
I don't know, I
don't know, I don't know
Hatin’ everybody
else
'Cause they don't look like you
Oohh drowning
Hatin’ everybody
else
'Cause they don't look like you
Drowning
Time
Time
Why you punish me
Like a wave crashin’
into the shore
You wash away my
dreams
Time
Why you walk away
Like a friend with
somewhere to go
You left me cryin’
Can you teach me
about tomorrow
And all the pain and
sorrow
Runnin’ free
‘Cause tomorrow's
just another day
And I don't believe
in time
Time
I don't understand
Children killin’
in the street
Dyin’ for the
color of a rag
Time
Hey they’re red
and blue
Wash them in the
ocean make them clean
Maybe their mothers
won't cry tonight
Can you teach me
about tomorrow
And all the pain and
sorrow
Runnin’ free
‘Cause tomorrow's
just another day
And I don't believe
in
Time
Is wastin’
(Time)
Is walkin’
(Time)
You ain't no friend
of mine
(Time)
I don't know where
I’m goin'
(Time)
I think I'm out of
my mind
Thinkin’ about
time
And if I die
tomorrow, yeah
Just lay me down in
sleep
Ooooohhhhh no no no
no no no
Time
Is wastin’
(Time)
Is walkin’
(Time)
You ain't no friend
of mine
(Time)
I don't know where
I’m goin'
(Time)
I think I'm out of
my mind
Thinkin’ about
time
Time
You left me standin’
there
Like a tree growin’
all alone
The wind just
stripped me bare
Stripped me bare
Time
The past has come
and gone
The future's far
away
But that’ll only
lasts for one second
One second
Can you teach me
about tomorrow
And all the pain and
sorrow
Runnin’ free
'Cause tomorrow's
just another day
And I don't believe
in time
(Time)
You ain't no friend
of mine
(Time)
I don't know where
I’m goin'
(Time)
I think I'm out of
my mind
(Time)
Walkin’
(Time)
Wastin’
(Time)
You ain't no friend
of mine
(Time)
I don't know where
I’m goin'
Ooooohhhhh no no no
Time without courage
And time without
fear
It’s just wastin’,
wastin’, wastin’ time
Ooooohhhhh
Ooooooo
Time
Why you punish me
Look
Away
I saw her standin’
there
Tears upon her cheek
Told me somethin’ was wrong
I asked her what it
was
She looked away and
said my daddy’s home
Well I knew what
that meant
It meant that I
could never see you again
For I had seen this
once before
I didn’t wanna
deal with it anymore
Look away she said,
as she turned to me
Oh when I tried to
hold her, couldn’t let her be
Let her be, let her
be
I said why, why do
you make me cry
She said I love you
so
Look away I don’t
wanna know
Saw her standin’
there
Tears upon her cheek
told me something’s wrong
I said what baby
She looked away and
said my daddy’s home
Look away she said,
and she turned to me
Oh God I, oh I loved
her, couldn’t let her be
Let her be, let her
be
Look away, look away
She said I love you so, look away
Not
Even The Trees
Alone as I sit and
watch the trees
Won't you tell me if
I scream
Will He bend down and listen to me
And it makes me
wonder
If I know the words will you come
Or will you laugh at
me
Or will I run
Little boy says to
me where you goin' now son
I said I don't know
where I'm goin' boy
I only know where
I'm from
And it makes me
wonder
If the stars shine
when my eyes close
Or does my brothers heart cry
Well I don't know
I'm a stranger in my
home
Now that everybody's
gone
Someone please talk
to me
’Cause I feel you
cry
And you're sittin’
with Him
And I know I'll
never see you again
Lyin’ down in
Charleston
Under the Carolina sky
You see I'm tired of
feelin’ this pain
I'm tired of livin’
my own little lie
And it makes me
wonder
When I see you in my
dreams
Does it mean
anything
Are you tryin’ to
talk to me
I'm a stranger in my
home
Tell me are you
feelin’ alone
Someone tell me what
to do
'Cause I'm feelin’
strong
And I wonder how you
feel
Does He realize my
pain is for real
I see you in my
dreams
And I wonder if
you're lookin’ down at me
And smilin’ right
now
Oh and I wanna know
if it's true
When He looks at me
Won't you tell me
Does He realize He
came down here
He took you too soon
ooooohhhhh
Ooooohhhhh no
And now my days are
short
And my nights are long
I lay down with
memories of you
That keeps me goin’ on, goin’ on
And it makes me
wonder
As I sit and stare
Will I see your face
again
Tell me do you care
I'm a stranger in my
home
Livin’ life on my
own
Right now I just
can't see
'Cause I’m feelin’
weak
And my soul begins
to bleed
Oh Lord
And no one is
listenin’ to me
Not even the trees
Oohh oh no no no na
no
Hmmmmm
Goodbye
Tomorrow used to be
a day away
Now love is gone
And
you’re into someone far away
I never thought the
day would come
When I would see his
hand not mine
Holdin’ onto yours
Because I could not find the time
And now I can’t
deny
Nothin’ lasts
forever
But I don’t wanna
leave
And see the tear
drops in your eyes
I don’t wanna live
to see the day we say goodbye
Now there comes
another part of life I call alone
Sitting at a bar
with Chris
That I can’t leave
'Cause my house ain’t no home no
I just wanna touch
you girl
I wanna feel you
close to me
Without your love
I would give up now
and walk away so easily
So maybe while
we’re young
We’ll figure out
together
That even with the
pain then the remedy
We’ll be all right
I don’t wanna live
to see the day we say goodbye
Ooooohhhhh
When I first met you
I couldn’t love anyone
Ooooohhhhh but you
stole my dreams
And you made me see
That I can walk
under the sun
And I can still be
me
And now I can’t
deny
Nothin’ lasts
forever
But I don’t wanna
leave
And see the teardrops in your eyes
So baby while
we’re young
Let’s figure out
together
That even with the
pain then the a remedy
Ooooohhhhh and
we’ll be all right
I don’t wanna live
and see the day we say goodbye
We say goodbye
Oh goodbye
Goodbye
Motherless
Child
Sometimes I feel
Like a motherless
child
Sometimes I feel
Like a mother, a
motherless child
Sometimes I feel
Like a motherless
child
A long long way
From my home
