In the quiet of the evening
I sing a mournful song
As the night wind blows a low lonesome moan
Oh she left without a warning
My world came tumbling down
Our love ended with the sad heartbreakin' sound
Now the blues are movin' in
I can't help the way I feel
What an awful price for love I've had to pay
Never thought I'd see the day
She'd just up and run away
What a cold world, when the blues are movin' in
I heard her walk across the floor
Heard the closing of the door
And the sound of silence cut me like a knife
She was all that I lived for
And I'll never love again

Looking through this worn out book of pictures
Reliving all the love we once knew
Searching through the pages of my memories
Everywhere I look there's me and you
Oh, whatever happened to us
Somehow through the years, we've lost touch
Lately I've been missing you so much
Oh, whatever happened to us
I always thought we looked so good together
How did we come to drift so far apart
These tears I cry keep asking me one question
Why did we break each other's hearts
Lately I've been missing you so much

Verse 1:
Just across the mountains in a valley down below
Lived a girl I mer back years ago
Her eyes shined like diamonds her hair was of gold
But that was before she left me all alone
Chorus:
How she lives in my memory today
Oh how I miss her warm and touching ways
And someday I hope she'll want to go
Back to the mountains and the valley down below
Verse 2:
One day she came to me and said I have to go
My family is moving I thought you'd want to know
But I'll never forget you and your smiling face

Well sadie momma told her your nearly 21
It's time to find a man to settle down
She putted up her aburn hair put on her best perfume
Headed for the dance down town
Oh Sadies got her new dress on
Lord lord
Sadies got her new dress on
Her momma done and said she's old enough to wed
Sadies got her new dress on
Heyy look a yonder coming'
Charlie taylor said I've never seen a girl with eyes that green
But sadie rose just winked at him &
Patted him on the head
Then dance a juke with willie dean
Oh sadies got her new dress on
Lord lord
Sadies got her new dress on
He momms done and said she's old enough to wed
Sadies got her new dress on
Well bobby said to willy I can't believe my eyes
That sadie rose she's lookin mighty fine
Thn willie said to bobby I was lookin at her too
&& I will be the one to make her mine
Oh sadies got her new dress on
Lord lord
Sadies got her new dress on
He momms done and said she's old enough to wed

A drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most,
Cause you are my heaven.
I don't wanna waste the weekend
If you don't love me, pretend a few more hours, then it's time to go
As my train rolls down the east coast I wonder how you keep warm
It's too late to cry
To broken to move on
And still I can't let you be
Most nights I hardly sleep
Don't take what you don't need from me
It's just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most,
Cause you are my heaven.
Misplaced trust and old friends
Never counting regrets
But a grace of god I do not rest at all
In new England as the leaves change
The last excuse I'll claim, I was a boy who loved a women like a little girl
And still I can't let you be
Most nights I hardly sleep
Don't take what you don't need from me
It's just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most,
Cause you are my,
Heaven doesn't seem far away anymore no no
Heaven doesn't seem far away
Heaven doesn't seem far away anymore no no
Heaven doesn't seem far away
A drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most,
Cause you are my heaven.

I was cleaning out the closet, throwin' things away
I'd forgotten all about it, when I looked, there it lay
I picked it up, found a frame and hung it in the hall
But there's more behind this picture than the wall
It was taken on that trip we took back in '92
Casey sure didn't look like me, Lord, he looked like you
We had no way of knowing then, just how the cards would fall
Yeah, there's more behind this picture than the wall
Casey joined the army, they sent him far from home
Lori moved to Hollywood, pre-tending she was grown
You and I held on and tried, to make sense of it all
There's more behind this picture than the wall
Too soon our little family, was scattered to the wind
You fell out of love with me, wouldn't fall back in
I was sleepin' by myself the night I got that call
Yeah, there's more behind this picture than the wall
Casey died a hero, that's what the Chaplin said
We couldn't find sweet glory, our doubt ain't over yet
You and I still tortured by the memories we recall
There's more behind this picture than the wall
Four happy lovin' faces, back then we had it all
But there's more behind this picture than the wall

It's been a long time 'comin
But I'm finally on my way
14 years at Edyville's a might price to pay
Once your week away from home's turned into all these years
One regret, One broken heart was taunted into tears.
Mississippi River let your waters flow
Carry me down to the Gulf of Mexico
Louisiana 'bihue in the mornin' sun
Smell the sweet Magnolia
When the day is done.
Oh rivers when I look at you
I think of time I've lost
Sittin' in a dirty cell I've had to pay the cost
For a life of crime I chose a prize I can not win
When I get to Louisiana I'll never leave again.
Mississippi River let your waters flow
Carry me down to the Gulf of Mexico
Louisiana 'bihue in the mornin' sun
Smell the sweet Magnolia
When the day is done.
Mississippi River let your waters flow
Carry me down to the Gulf of Mexico
Louisiana 'bihue in the mornin' sun
Smell the sweet Magnolia
When the day is done.
Louisiana 'bihue in the mornin' sun
Smell the sweet Magnolia
When the day is done.
Mississippi River (Mississippi River)

Lovin' you, lovin' you,
Seems that's all I ever want to do
You went and turned your back on me
I packed my bags and had to leave
I can't believe I'm still in love with you
The hardest thing I've tried to do
Is try and keep from loving you
I don't think it's ever gonna be
You have got my heart and soul
Wish that you were mine to hold
Even though I know you don't love me
I close my eyes and all I see
Are memories of when you loved me
Your heart is locked, and I don't have the key
So I'll keep tryin' to forget
Maybe some day time will let

Well I thought I had a love forever
that she was the one for me.
Life was sweet, I had everything
We were happy as could be
But today she took me by surprise
with a note up on my door
And the words she wrote
still haunt my mind "Sayin'
I don't love you anymore."
Blow blow whistle blow
Engineer let those big wheels roll
Farther on down the track
I don't know where I am bound
I just got to get out of this town
Where she stops nobody knows
So blow whistle blow.
Now I've lived and learned
and let me say "Take it from me
cause I've been there"
That true love it don't come easy
And sometimes it just aint fair.
So before you give your heart away
And you lay it on the line
Make sure you've got a one way ticket
on ole heart break number nine
So before you give your heart away
And you lay it on the line
Make sure you've got a one way ticket
on ole heart break number nine
Blow blow whistle blow
Engineer let those big wheels roll
Farther on down the track
I don't know where I am bound
I just got to get out of this town
Where she stops nobody knows
So blow whistle blow.
Where she stops nobody knows

Well when he got the phone call it gave him quite a fright
'Cause a call from home is rare enough especially at midnight
He answered kind of nervous, a voice said, "This is dad
I was sitting here and thought of you and it made me really sad.
"I know I've been a hard mad to live with in my life.
You'd think that I just didn't care 'cause all we did was fight.
And you probably hate me more than anyone
But I still love you son.
"That time when you were 14 that bully blacked your eye
We tracked him down and I made you fight until you made him cry.
I know this worn out feeling the things that I've done wrong
That drove a wedge between our hearts and drove you from our home
"I made you give up football so you could bail my hay.
I made you give up Jenny and then she got away.
Any you probably hate me more than anyone
But I still love you son.
"For all the love I never gave I'm sorry for that now.
And for all the things I didn't say I want to say somehow.
But I guess I'd better hang up because I probably called too late
But if you could find it in your heart to forgive me that'd be great.
But you probably hate me more than anyone
But I still love you son."
And then he heard the dial tone and then his front doorbell
And his mother stood there all alone not looking very well
She said, "I drove three hours – didn't make one stop
'Cause tonight your daddy passed away just before eight o'clock.
"At first he talked about you like he ain't done in years,
And you might not believe this but, god, he cried real tears.
He said you probably hate him more than anyone
But he still loved you son.
"And he said, 'For all the love I never gave I'm sorry for that now.'
And he said, "For all the things I didn't say I want to say somehow.'
He said you probably hate him more than anyone
But he still loved you son."

I saw a little beam of sunlight
Steal across a purple sky
And bent down to kiss a rose bud
Oh, it made me wanna cry
And to think that I've been permitted
To see a part of nature's plan
Oh, there's nothing that stands out more
Than the selfishness in man
Little children painting pictures
Of the blooms and apple trees
Oh, why can't the grown up people
Have faith of one thing?
And to think those tiny fingers
Might become a killer's hand
Oh, there's nothing that stands out more
Than the selfishness in man
Why can't we see the folly?
And the uselessness of pain
Love could lead to understanding
Maybe it's not too late
Then perhaps through His great wisdom
We might learn to understand
Then there'd be no shame or sorrow
And no selfishness in man
Then perhaps through His great wisdom
We might learn to understand
Then there'd be no shame or sorrow

Lately Grace hasn't been herself
And he's noticed the change
Like forgetting friends they have known for years and misplacing her things
He'd make a joke; they both laugh
And blame it on old age
It's not funny anymore, She can't remember his name
He believes way down deep she still
Knows is Fourty years of memories
Just can't disappear like this
The doctors say it's hopeless, her
Past has been erased
But he'll spend the rest of his
Life, Saving Grace
Raised five kids on a farmers pay, Vietnam took a son, but watching Grace live like this is the hardest thing he has done
He sits there by her bed sometimes, while she's fast asleep. Tell's her all about herself strokes her hair and weeps
He believes way down deep she still
Knows is. Fourty years of memories
Just can't disappear like this. The
Doctors say it's hopeless, her past
Has been erased. But he'll spend
The rest of his life, Saving Grace
The woman that he's loved for years
Is somewhere trapped in the pain
Tonight he swears she smiled at him and almost spoke his name
The doctors say it's hopeless, her past has been erased. But he'll spend the rest of his life, Saving Grace
He believes way down deep she still
Knows is

You never listened when I talked
your heart was far away
Your mind was on somebody else
not what I had to say
Can you hear me now sweetheart
now all is said and done
he broke your heart just like I knew
and now he's up and gone
He's left you there to cry alone
He's broken every vow
you never heard my words before
but can you hear me now
you never listened when i said
your more than life itself
was it his love that called to you
or all his worldly wealth
when it came time to leave this earth
you kissed my fevered brow
turned me into a memory
love, can you hear me now
can you hear me now sweetheart
now all is said and done
he broke your heart just like i knew
and now he's up and gone
He's left you there to cry alone
He's broken every vow
you never heard my words before

Somewhere in my thoughts there lives a lady
She's walking back and forth across my mind
Blocking out each chance of me forgetting
Assuring me she'll be there for some time
Her golden hair is tied around my memory
The pain she left with me is here to stay
I'm doing all I can to go on living
And yet I die a little more each day
Lead Break
Now that I'm alone with just my memory
I've had some time for counting my mistakes
And loving her stands out from all the others
But that was one I couldn't help but make
Funny how some thoughts can be so painful
And how refuse to go away
I'm doing all I can to go on living
And still I die a little more each day

she told me that her name was jenny
she lived in a cabin on the hill
in a coal mining town in west virginia
i love jenny and i guess i always will
chours
i thought i would always want to ramble
i thought i would never settle down
well i meet her in the hills of west virginia
in the heart of a coal mining town
break
i like the sound of the coal trucks
back in the hills a hauling coal
with the beauiful mountains all around me
west virginia you have won my heart and soul
chours
break
chours

(Verse 1)
Everything I own is in my old Ford, except what's on my back
I got one more stop before I go to pick up my last check
And I'll leave a note that says goodbye to my good ol' gal named Fae
I'd like to see her one more time but it would take another day
(Chorus)
When I'm knee deep in bluegrass, then I'll be satisfied
I don't care if it's bottom land or rocky mountain high
Any part of old Kentucky's home sweet home to me
Knee deep in bluegrass is where I want to be
(Verse 2)
I can see uncle Bill, sitting on the porch, pickin' at his old banjo
Looking out across the field, watching his green corn grow
There's nothing more I'm waiting for than to see this road unwind
When the city lights are lying in the miles I've left behind
(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
Cincinatti's gonna hear hear my Ford as we go rolling through
But the only thing they'll see of us is just a cloud of blue
These wheels ain't gonna make stop in no other town
Until i know my feet can touch that good Kentucky ground

[Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver]
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeell.
You gotta dig a little deeper,
if that girl's a keeper,
Lose a little bit of your pride,
You gotta dig a little deeper,
if you wanna keep her,
Keep her satisfied.
You spend your life,
a runnin' around,
Out there on the road,
Leavin' your woman a settin' at home,
To shoulder all a the load.
You gotta dig a little deeper,
if that girl's a keeper,
Lose a little bit of your pride,
You gotta dig a little deeper,
if you wanna keep her,
Keep her satisfied.
(Instrumentals)
Well now love is just a game,
That everbody plays,
You're either gonna win or lose,
A winner walks away,
high as a kite,
With the loser left,
cryin' the blues.
You gotta dig a little deeper,
if that girl's a keeper,
Lose a little bit of your pride,
You gotta dig a little deeper,
if you wanna keep her,
Keep her satisfied.
(Instrumentals)
Weeeeeeeeeeell.
If you gotta good woman,
Who's a waitin' at home,
with dinner on the table at five,
You gotta tell her,
you appreciate her every day,
And you love her,
till the day that you die.
You gotta dig a little deeper,
if that girl's a keeper,
Lose a little bit of your pride,
You gotta dig a little deeper,
if you wanna keep her,
Keep her satisfied.
Dig a little deeper,
Dig a little deeper,
Dig a little deeper,
Dig a little deeper,
Dig a little deeper,
Dig,
You've got to,
Dig a little deeper,
If you wanna keep her,
Keep her satisfied.
