This is the Oak Ridge Boys' full 1984 appearance on Austin City Limits, which was televised in 1985.

Oak Ridge Boys Jan. 1, 1996 Concert in Merrillville, IN

Order: Reorder
Duration: 31:24
Updated: 17 Apr 2015

This is a portion from the January 1, 1996 concert where William Lee Golden returned to the Oak Ridge Boys after a nine-year absence in Merrillville, IN at the Star Plaza Theater. Unfortunately, I don't believe very much footage from this concert was taken, as I believe some of the concert was merely taken to use on TNN Country News. I do believe, however, that this footage was taken by the Oak Ridge Boys organization. The video starts with Dee singing on baritone with the Oaks, as he had recently after Steve Sanders left the group, then the Oaks re-introduced William Lee Golden. This concert marked the first time many of these songs had been performed in a long time, some over 15 years, Set List: Y'all Come Back Saloon (w/Dee Allen on baritone, not in full) - You're the One (in a Million) - Trying to Love Two Women - Ozark Mountain Jubilee - Up on Cripple Creek - I Wish You Could Have Turned My Head (And Left My Heart Alone) - Sail Away (not in full)

Oak Ridge Boys 1974 Jake Hess Show

Order: Reorder
Duration: 36:27
Updated: 21 May 2015

This is the full Oak Ridge Boys 1974 Jake Hess Show appearance. This concert was done during the promotion of the Oaks' 1974 self-titled album, which was their debut album on Columbia records. There are also some Heartwarming-era songs on this concert, but this concert is done with the current four members of the Oak Ridge Boys. Note: I had to remove two songs from this concert, Because He Lives and Jesus Is the Man (For the Hour), since they are included on A Gospel Journey, the 2009 Bill Gaither show DVD with the Oaks, and are copyrighted, and YouTube will not allow me to post them. If you want to see those songs, you'll have to go to VEVO, or purchase the A Gospel Journey DVD. Set List: He's Gonna Smile on Me - The Baptism of Jesse Taylor - What a Time We Will Have Over There - Sanctified - Put Your Arms Around Me Blessed Jesus - I Know - Jesus Is Coming Soon - King Jesus - Why Me - You Happened to Me - Give Me Just a Little More Time, Sweet Jesus (Oaks Band Song) - Rockland Road (Oaks Band Song)

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Colors

The sun comes up and shines like gold across the ocean waves
A nation blessed with all the best as we begin our day
We know the price of freedom, we see it every day
We'll pay the debt, 'cause you can bet, we love the U.S.A.
This is our homeland, this is America
We won't give up, we won't give in
'Cause this is America
We trust in God, 'cause this is America
Let's take a stand, we love this land
The enemy has hurt us, violence knocked us to the ground
An emptiness surrounds us, pain of loss is all around
This threat to our freedom has renewed our will to fight
Our battle cry is victory, we know we'll do what's right

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Songs of Inspiration

My feet are getting so weary
And my steps are getting slow
As I travel down this lonely road of life
But each step that I take
Just draws me closer, closer to my home
Where I'll rest from all my heartaches, all my troubles, all my strife
Each step I take just draws me closer home, closer to my home
Where I'll rest my weary feet and travel no more
I see my loved ones waiting on that shore
They're waiting on that shore
Each step I take just draws me closer to my home

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Compared To You

Compared to my father I'm a college boy
Who never learned to saw a straight line.
Compared to my mother I'm a sinner
Who never saw the light.
But I read my bible every day,
I worked my hands in wood,
I ain't always done my best but I've done the best I could.
Compared to you I am Appalachian south
When I hear those sweet words like peaches in your mouth
I know that your roots run underneath this clay
To the place that makes a dreamer never wanna run away.
Where love is rare,
Love that's true.
I ain't never met a woman in my life
That compared to you.
Compared to my brother I'm a seeker
Who just wanted way too much.
Compared to my sister I'm a loner
Who is livin' out of touch
And I've got nowhere else to be.
Would you like to take a walk
Or just sit here and let me hear you talk?
Compared to you I am Appalachian south
When I hear those sweet words like peaches in your mouth
You talk with a drawl and I talk with a twang
But underneath it all we both mean the same thing.
Love is rare,
Love that's true.
I ain't never met a woman in my life
That compared to you.
Well now that you know all of that
Do you think that we could maybe close this gap?
Compared to you I am Appalachian south
When I hear those sweet words like peaches in your mouth
I know that your roots run underneath this clay
To the place that makes a dreamer never wanna run away.
Where love is rare,
Love that's true.
I ain't never met a woman in my life

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Didn't It Rain

The good Lord went to Noah and he told him about the
flood
He said Noah build me a vessel and make it out of
gopher wood
Build it big, tall and strong so it won’t be torn apart
Old Noah built him a masterpiece and he called it
Noah’s ark.
[CHORUS:]
Didn’t it rain children, didn’t it rain, rain, rain
Forty days and nights, didn’t it rain?
Oh didn’t it rain children, didn’t it rain, rain, rain
Forty days and nights, didn’t it rain?
He had a moose and a goose and a gander
Alligator and a big hippo
A monkey and an ape, a couple of snakes,
A ram and a sheep and a goat.
He had a possum and a ‘coon and a black baboon,
Ann eagle and a red-tailed hawk,
A buck and a doe, a turkey and a crow
And a donkey trying to bark.
He had leopards, lions and tigers,
Bulls and a buffalo,
Orang-utans and little bitty things
All lined up in a row.
He had a dog and a cat and a gopher rat
And a great big grizzly bear
A mule and a cow, a boar and a sow
He had two of everything in there.
[CHORUS]
He had apples, peaches, plums and pears,
Grapes and apricots
Bees and beans and turnip greens,
He had corn and baby squash.
He had a pumpkin and a big watermelon
He had every kind of wheat
And just before he closed that door
He grabbed a handful of mustard seed.
[CHORUS]
[CHORUS]

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Power Of Goodbye

The Oak Ridge Boys – The Power Of Goodbye
(Written By Don Von Tress)
I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the walls closing in on me
I never dreamed it would be like this.
When it's all said and done
When you know that the only one
You have ever loved is gone
That's how it really is.
CHORUS:
I felt the power of love
I thought that that's all there was
There was nothing as strong as the ties that bind
Woh but I know I was wrong
Baby since you're gone
I know that nothing
Nothing can touch you
Like the power of goodbye.
You used to make me feel like a man
You had me believing I was more than I am
There was power in those times we spent together
Wish I had known then what I know now
Wish I had seen it coming somehow
I would have risked my heart for the stormy weather.
CHORUS:
CHORUS:
I felt the power of love
I thought that that's all there was
There was nothing as strong as the ties that bind

The Oak Ridge Boys – Love This Cat

A oump yer, a oump yer yer, a oump yer, aaaah
A oump yer, a oump yer yer, a oump yer, aaaah
CHORUS:
Yer, you got me itching babe
I'm scratching like a hound
Wagging your tail honey, all over town.
You tell me, roll over Rover
But I can't go for that
Don't you treat me like a dog, baby
Love this cat.
A oump yer, a oump yer yer, a oump yer, aaaah
Well each time I try to catch you babe
You turn on me.
You've got me howling at the moon
And barking up the wrong tree.
Why don't you be my little kitten?
Curl up on my lap.
Don't you treat me like a dog, baby
Love this cat.
Don't you treat me like a dog
Waiting for his bone.
Don't you put me on a lead
Then lead me on
You got me sitting all day,
I can't get enough.
Well I'm a fool tomcat
This ain't no puppy love.
Everybody knows that you're a pedigree
They a come running when you whistle, baby
But not me.
No I won't be your little munter
I wont run with that cat
Don't you treat me like a dog, baby
Love this cat.
CHORUS:
Don't you treat me like a dog, baby

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Heaven's A Small Town

They say heaven waits for the righteous
A road to redemption – that’s what life is
Somewhere down the blue highway I found paradise.
Heaven’s a small town; heaven’s a small town.
Streets ain’t lined with gold, just the white lines.
No pearly gates, just a stop sign.
I found my angel here in a pair of tight blue jeans.
Heaven’s a small town; heaven’s a small town.
It’s a Sunday morning every day
I pray my soul is here to stay
It’s a small town
Heaven’s a small town; heaven’s a small town.
Where every good old boy is a good son
And every good old girl, she’s a fine one.
Everybody knows your name, everybody waves.
Heaven’s a small town; heaven’s a small town.
It’s a Sunday morning every day
I pray my soul is here to stay
It’s a small town.
Heaven’s a small town.
Even poor old sinners like me
Find a second chance.
Heaven’s a small town,
Heaven’s a small town
Heaven’s a small town,
Heaven’s a small town.
Heaven’s a small town,
Heaven’s a small town

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Live With Jesus

Seen a lot of trouble at my door
Never gone a day when I ain't been cold
But I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end.
Hard time is all I've seen

But I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end.
I'm gonna live, I'm gonna live,

I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end.

I meet my saviour, redeem my soul
‘Cause I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end.
I'm gonna live, I'm gonna live,

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Lucky Moon

The Oak Ridge Boys – Lucky Moon
(Written By Mark Wright, Doug Johnson)
I was there in the very next room
She thought I was down the hall
She was talking on the phone like women do
She didn't know I could hear at all.
I heard her say to her very best friend
He doesn't love me like I did back then
She said lately I've been so alone
So tomorrow morning I'll be gone.
CHORUS:
Lucky moon stay out tonight, sunlight stay away
I've got one more chance to make things right
We've gotta make her want to stay
It's up to me and you, lucky moon.
Make reservations at her favourite restaurant
Candle light and expensive wine
Try to let her know that she's the one that I want
Gotta show her while I've still got time.
I can't believe how stupid I've been
God knows I love her like I did back then
Better take to heart her warning
Somehow change her mind by morning.
CHORUS:
The first star I see tonight
I wish I may, I pray she might
Find a little magic in the moonlight.
Lucky moon stay out tonight, sunlight stay away
I've got one more chance to make things right
We've gotta make her want to stay
CHORUS:
Lucky moon.

And without you I don't know where I'd have been
We have soothed each other's quiet desperations
and loved each other every now and then
We have made each other laugh like happy children
You have sometimes felt my teardrops on your hand
And when we can't control our lonely feelings
We love each other now and then
We're a little less than lovers but a little more than friends
Clinging to each other until the darkness ends
We have held each other time and time again
And loved each other every now and then
Some day I'll find the one who's meant for me
And I that some day you'll find love again
But we'll always have the very special memories
Of the love we gave each other now and then
We're a little less than lovers but a little more than friends
Clinging to each other until the darkness ends
We have held each other time and time again
And loved each other every now and then
We have held each other time and time again

Top Oak Ridge Boys, In A Tender Moment

The Oak Ridge Boys – In A Tender Moment
(Written By Red Nielsen, Monty Powell)
5 o'clock this morning
The night is giving in.
I come home without warning
And quietly let myself in.
And as I watch you sleeping
I see the trace of a smile.
I know that I'm in your dreams somewhere
And that you still care.
CHORUS:
And in a tender moment like this
When all I can hear is you breathing.
In a tender moment like this
You know you've got me believing
That loving you is all there is.
In a tender moment like this.
Seven days that I've been away
Are seven too many for me,
But you know that I've got to play
It's me they're paying to see.
And as I watch you sleeping
You slowly open your eyes.
That crowd fades to a distant roar
And I'm home once more.
CHORUS:
All of my life I've been burning
With a fire that's swept me alone
But how I would trade every song, every place
For this one moment alone.
CHORUS:
That loving you is all there is.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, A Little More Coal On The Fire

The Oak Ridge Boys – A Little More Coal On The Fire
(Written By Dave Loggins)
So you thought without her it would be easy to live
She wanted more than you were willing to give.
Ah, but give and take and blame are all a part of the plan
That burns for the one that you want to be with.
You know a fire is hard to get started
And even harder to make a good one last.
You'd better believe it's so
You're gonna wind up out in the cold
When it all goes up in smoke and ashes.
You better pour a little more coal on the fire
Send the voice she knows and loves a whistling down the wire
If it's love and it's true
Then it ain't nothing more than a point of view
Pour a little more coal on the fire
Oh you've gotta pour a little more coal on the fire.
You know she wants you but only if you're willing to bend
You're far enough away to see how much she meant
Oh it's a crying shame that fire's part of the game
It's a card you're holding, playing to win.
There ain't nothing as lonely as a loser
Who refuses to fold a losing hand
You'd better believe it's true
It's happening to you
You're gonna become a forgotten man.
You better pour a little more coal on the fire
Send the voice she knows and loves a whistling down the wire
If it's love and it's true
Then it ain't nothing more than a point of view
Pour a little more coal on the fire.
I said if it's love and it's real
Then cuddle up and tell her just how you feel.
Pour a little more coal on the fire.
You gotta pour a little more coal on the fire,
On the fire, a little more coal on the fire
You gotta pour a little more coal on the fire
You gotta pour a little more coal on the fire
You gotta pour a little more coal on the fire

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Discovery Vaults

(Roger Murrah - Skip Ewins)
What'll I do, oh what'll I do if you stop loving me?
How will I live baby, you give me everything I need
I know in my heart, oh, every part of me is loving you
So if you stop loving me what'll I do?
Too many hearts in too much trouble in this world today
They say two cross words to each other and one starts walking away
I don't want to see you and me ever fall apart
So when times get rough and the road gets rocky I always ask my heart.
What'll I do, oh, what'll I do if you stop loving me?
How will I live baby, you give me everything I need
I know in my heart, oh, every part of me is loving you
So if you stop loving me what'll I do?
--- Instrumental ---
Now a man can have his life together and not be satisfied
But give that man the love of a woman and watch him come alive
I know it's true 'cause without you my world would come undone
So when I stop and count my blessings you're number one.
What'll I do, oh, what'll I do if you stop loving me?
How will I live baby, you give me everything I need
I know in my heart, oh, every part of me is loving you
So if you stop loving me what'll I do?
Oh, what'll I do, oh, what'll I do if you stop loving me?
How will I live baby, you give me everything I need
I know in my heart, oh, every part of me is loving you
So if you stop loving me what'll I do?
What'll I do, oh, what'll I do if you stop loving me?
How will I live baby, you give me everything I need
I know in my heart, oh, every part of me is loving you
So if you stop loving me what'll I do?...

Top Oak Ridge Boys, American Dreams

The mystery of you and me
Is coloured blue on blue
We once said more than we could give
We couldn’t see it through.
You won’t believe these words from me
But still they’re mine to say
I will always love you
In my own crazy way.
I’ve tried to keep my sanity
By being someone else
Someone that you
Could hold on to
I only fooled myself.
I knew the part
But in my heart
The role I couldn’t play
But I will always love you
In my own crazy way.
I know I didn’t do the little things
That could make a woman’s heart sing
Forgive me.
Darling if I brought you any pain
I’m trying to explain
In my heart I was always true.
But memories of you and me
Are written on the wing
And sometimes girl
I’d give the world
To do it all again.
And if you need
To call on me
Woh, I won’t be far away
I will always love you
In my own crazy way.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, 30 Gospel Greats

The churches are empty, the jails are all full
It's over our own eyes we're pulling wool
Making us blind to decay from within
Misguided values where greed is no sin
Schools are all open but Johnny can't read
With hands tied behind them the teachers just plead
Johnny needs parents who honestly care
But they're busy working with no time to spare
So blame it on Washington, blame it on me
Blame it on drugs or the next guy you see
Blame it on money when push comes to shove
But the blame really lies in the absence
Guns on the streets, drugs on the rise
That victims are children should be no surprise
They become what they are from watching adults
We all took the test, these are the results
Now it's bars on the windows and locks on the doors
They look more like prisons than houses and stores
It's a moral dilemma wherever you go
When love says good-bye, ill will says hello

Top Oak Ridge Boys, American Gospel Classics

God's hands made the earth and everything
God's hands made the flowers and the birds that sing
God's hands made the mountains and ev-e-ry tree
From a handful of love God made even me
God's hands hold the waters and make them flow
God's hands hold the seasons from the springtime to snow
His hands hold our life span from cradle to grave
These same hands nailed at Calvary hold power to save
God's hands rule the heavens and the vast universe
He has power to bless and power to curse
His hands lifted me out of sin from all sin
He has now blessed my way God's hands leadeth me

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Christmas Cookies

O come all ye faithful joyful and triumphant
O come ye O come ye to Bethlehem
Come and behold Him, born the King Of Angels
O come let us adore Him O come let us adore Him
O come let us adore Him, Christ The Lord
Sing choirs of angles, sing in exultation
O sing all ye citizens of Heav'n above
Glory to God in the highest heaven

Top Oak Ridge Boys, The Oak Ridge Boys Have Arrived

I gotta get over this, this hurt is lasting much too long
I gotta get over this, get back on the track where I belong
I gotta get over this, this hurt is lasting much too long
I gotta get over this, get back on the track where I belong
You said we were through and I said that I knew this was coming on
I saw it in your eyes that look you can't disguise I've known you much too long
We thought we'd try to leave it with a smile casue bitter teardrops
Just ain't our style
You've been gone sometime but this feeling in my mind still seems to beat me down
Now's the time to fill this empty in my heart I'm tired of hangin' 'round
I know our love will never be the same
I've got to pull my head out of this foolish game

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Gold

Juliet, Juliet
You've got the smile that I can't forget
On the day we met I made a bet
Some day I'll win the love of Juliet
Long as the sand, bright as the sun
Where have you been since my life begun
Girl you're the one that I want to know
Juliet let me be your Romeo
Friendly smile a sexy walk
A charming little accent when you talk
You're an eleven on a scale of ten
Juliet I just wanna say it again
Just a little bit shy, just a little bit quiet
I don't mind, I'm in love and I can't deny it

Top Oak Ridge Boys, The Boys Are Back

[CHORUS:]
You can huff, you can puff
And you can trash my name all around
But you ain’t gonna blow my house down
You ain’t gonna blow my house down.
You can howl, you can prowl
And you can romp and stomp on the ground
But you ain’t gonna blow my house down
You ain’t gonna blow my house down.
Open up the good book
Take yourself a good look
Ever since the start of time
Devil, you’ve been lyin’ and killin’ and robbin’ us
blind
Spittin’ out a big talk
Struttin’ with the big walk
Yeah you want to clean my clock
But devil you can’t because I’m standing on the solid
rock.
[CHORUS]
Yeah you want to break me
So that you can make me
Knuckle underneath your bluff
Aiming at my throat
Charging like a big bad wolf
Yeah you got a big bite
But you lost the big fight
Jesus won the victory
So devil back off ‘cause the winner is living in me.
[CHORUS]
[CHORUS]

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Something Worth Holding On To

Silver and gold or precious stones don’t mean a thing.
Ah they’ll buy you a thrill
Or a mansion on a hill
But life won’t change.
It’s a hard one to call
But I measure it all
By the things I can’t afford to lose.
When it comes to your love
That’s something worth holding on to.
If you’re saying goodbye tell me what I can believe in,
Oh what a cost to be lost in a world you’re leaving.
When I search my soul and let everything go
But the things that are tried and true.
When it comes to your love
That’s something worth holding on to.
Tell me the truth
Does it matter to you
What happens to me now?
Don’t tell me you care
Then leave me here feeling so left out.
Cause you know I’ll hold on
Even after you’ve gone
I wont give up on you
When it comes to your love
That’s something worth holding on to.
If you’re saying goodbye tell me what I can believe in.
Oh what a cost to be lost in a world you’re leaving.
Life’s a hard one to call
But I measure it all
By the things I can’t afford to lose.
When it comes to your love
That’s something worth holding on to.
When it comes to your love
That’s something worth holding on to.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Bridges And Walls

Some friends you'd cry for
You, I would die for
and I love you too much
to beg you to stay.
You have your own plans
but it makes my heart sad
watching my best friend just walking away.
Love's never easy
and who knows what's fair.
I guess I'm still feeling
what's no longer there.
When hearts go to pieces
love crumbles and falls,
like stones made of memories
from bridges and walls.
Hope tomorrow brings good news
'cause I'm sure gonna miss you.
If I look away now, please understand
'cause my eyes refuse to see
something I can't, believe.
The very best part of me, just come to an end.
Love's never easy
and who knows what's fair.
I guess I'm still feeling
what's no longer there.
When hearts go to pieces
love crumbles and falls
like stones made of memories
from bridges and walls.
Yes like stones made of memories

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Beyond Those Years

Full moons and empty promises
We were only high school kids
We got so close that we closed our eyes
to the facts of life
We were married in the spring
not long before the baby came
Your mama said she couldn't bare the shame
Your dad refused to give the bride away.
Beyond those years
Who'd have thought we'd still be standin' here
And that love would find it's way
Through all the tears
Beyond those years.
--- Instrumental ---
Eighteen standin' in the shoes of a man
The weight of the world in my unskilled hands
One by one as the dreams fell through
I took my failures out on you.
But you held on when it made no sense
And cleaned the face of the innocent
You were so strong to be so young
And now look just how far we've come.
Beyond those years
Who'd have thought we'd still be standin' here
And that love would find it's way
Through all the tears
Beyond those years.
So many times we wanted to act our age
Call it off, go our seperate ways
Against the odds we grew up to fast
And on our own, yeah, we made it last.
Beyond those years
Who'd have thought we'd still be standin' here
And that love would find it's way
Through all the tears
Beyond those years.
--- Instrumental ---
Beyond those years
Who'd have thought we'd still be standin' here
And that love would find it's way
Through all the tears
Beyond those years.
Beyond those years
Who'd have thought we'd still be standin' here
And that love would find it's way
Through all the tears

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Christmas Carol

Like a fixture down on Main Street, she stood there all year round
With a tin cup and tamborine, singin' Christmas songs
Folks thought she was crazy but they loved to hear her sing
Drop some money in her cup and she'd shake that tamborine
And they called her 'Christmas Carol'
There's not a Christmas song she couldn't sing
I remember Christmas Carol
With her snow white hair and a beat up tamborine
She wore that same old ragged coat all the year around
Lived all alone in a little shack just outside of town
She'd stand there singin' 'Jingle Bells' in the heat of the summertime
Yes, everyday was Christmas in Carol Johnson's mind
And they called her 'Christmas Carol'
There's not a Christmas song she couldn't sing
I remember Christmas Carol
With her snow white hair and a beat up tamborine
But I can still remember that twinkle in her eye
'Cause Carol kept a secret from the people passin' by
That secret was a mystery they talked about so long
How each Christmas Eve those gifts showed up
Outside the children's homes
That was 40 years agos, or 50, I believe
And still the toys keep showin' up each year on Christmas Eve
I wonder if we'll ever know just who took the cause
Is it still Christmas Carol or is it Santa Clause?
And they called her 'Christmas Carol'
There's not a Christmas song she couldn't sing
I remember Christmas Carol

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Carry On Wayward Son

Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond the illusion
I was soaring ever higher, but I flew too high
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreamin', I can hear them say
Carry on my wayward son,
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Now don't you cry no more
Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune, but I hear the voices say
Carry on my wayward son,
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Now don't you cry no more
Carry on, you will always remember
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's no longer empty
Surely heaven waits for you
Carry on my wayward son,
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Baby You'll Be My Baby

Daybreak pressin' on the window pane
No music playin' no mornin' rain
Nothin' but feelings leading me on
I'm just talkin' to you while you sleep in my arms.
As long as I'm here on earth
Baby you'll be my baby
All of my love's in these simple words
Baby you'll be my baby
As long as I'm here on earth.
--- Instrumental ---
Life isn't perfect and never will be
But it doesn't matter 'cause you're perfect for me
Through heartaches and mistakes, passion and pain
Down to my last breath I'll call your name.
As long as I'm here on earth
Baby you'll be my baby
All of my love's in these simple words
Baby you'll be my baby
As long as I'm here on earth.
Oh, Baby you'll be my baby
As long as I'm here on earth.
Oh yeah,
Can you see me now
Just As long as I'm living.
Just as long as I'm living, baby
Are you listening to me now, oh yeah
Just as long as I'm with you
Just as long, just as long
ooo Oh as a miracle ooo Oooaa
Just as long as I'm with you
Just as long, just as long
Oh it's a miracle
Just as long as I'm with you
Just as long, as I'm with you baby
Oh, listen to me what I'm saying to you
Just as long as I'm with you
Just as long, just as long
Say now

Top Oak Ridge Boys, I Wish You Could Have Turned My Head

(And Left My Heart Alone)
I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone
Ever since I met you, baby, you have done me wrong.
You walk by and you shake that thing and you know I'm not that strong,
But I wish you could have turned my head and left my heart alone.
First time I laid eyes on you, got caught up in your sway;
Thought I didn't have a chance and then you looked my way.
From the longin' to the lovin', girl, we've made it all the way,
But for all the hunger in my eyes my heart has had to pay.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, (you're My) Soul And Inspiration

Girl, I can't let you do this
Let you walk away
Girl, how can I live through this
When you're all I wake up for each day?
Baby, you're my soul and my heart's inspiration
You're all I've got to get me by
You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
Without you baby, what good am I?
I never had much goin'
But at least I had you
How can you walk out knowin'
I ain't got nothin' left if you do?
Baby, you're my soul and my heart's inspiration
You're all I've got to get me by
You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
Without you baby, what good am I, oh what good am I?
Baby, I can't make it withoutcha.
And I'm, I'm tellin' ya, honey-you're my
reason for laughin', for cryin', for livin', and for dyin'.
Baby, I can't make it without you
Please, I'm begging you baby
If you go it will kill me
I swear it, Dear, my love can't bear it
You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
You're all I've got to get me by
You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
Without you baby, what good am I, what good am I?
Mm-mm-mm Mm-mm-mm

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Taking One Heartbeat (at A Time)

The Oak Ridge Boys – Taking One Heartbeat At A Time
(Written By Walker Igleheart)
As I look around on another day
Sometimes I get so mad seeing the same old game
So many people caught in hopeless situations
I can't make much sense there's too much information.
Someone's always trying to run someone else's life
Woh, someone's only trying to make it through the night.
Putting one foot before the other
One step, then another
No map, no sign, taking one heartbeat at a time
It's a long road in a short life
One foot's on the other side
We look for love before we die
Taking one heartbeat at a time.
One thing I know, the only thing I'm sure of
There wouldn't be much point without your love
On this ship of fools, don't know where we're going
Most of what we're told is not worth the knowing
Someone's always trying to sell a new version of the truth
After all the words have gone, all I still believe is you.
In putting one foot before the other
One step, then another
No map, no sign, taking one heartbeat at a time
It's a long road in a short life
One foot's on the other side
We look for love before we die
Taking one heartbeat at a time.
We're putting one foot before the other
One step, then another
No map, no sign, taking one heartbeat at a time
It's a long road in a short life
One foot's on the other side
We look for love before we die
Taking one heartbeat at a time.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Jesus Is Coming Soon

Troublesome times are here, filling men's hearts with fear
Freedom we all hold dear now is at stake
Humbling your hearts to God saves from the chastening rod
Seek the way pilgrims trod, Christians awake
Jesus is coming soon, morning or night or noon
Many will meet their doom, trumpets will sound
All of the dead shall rise, righteous meet in the skies
Going where no one dies, heavenward bound
Troubles will soon be o'er, happy forevermore
When we meet on that shore, free from all care
Rising up in the sky, telling this world goodbye
Homeward we then shall fly, glory to share
Oh, Jesus is coming soon, morning or night or noon
Many will meet their doom, trumpets will sound
All of the dead shall rise, righteous meet in the skies
Going where no one dies, heavenward bound
Jesus is coming soon, morning or night or noon
Many will meet their doom, trumpets will sound
All of the dead shall rise, righteous meet in the skies
Going where no one dies, heavenward bound

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Just A Little Talk With Jesus

I once was lost in sin but Jesus took me in
And then a little light from heaven fill my soul
He bathed my heart in love and He wrote my name above
And just a little talk with Jesus makes me whole
Now let us have a little talk with Jesus
Let us tell Him all about our troubles
He will hear our faintest cry, He will answer by and by
And when you feel a little prayer wheel turnin'
And you will know a little fire is burnin'
Find a little talk with Jesus makes it right
I may have doubts and fears, my eye be filled with tears
But Jesus is a friend who watches day and night
I go to him in prayer, He knows my every care
And just a little talk with my Jesus makes it right
Now let us have a little talk with Jesus
Let us tell Him all about our troubles
He will hear our faintest cry, He will answer by and by
And when you feel a little prayer wheel turnin'
And you will know a little fire is burnin'
You will find a little talk with Jesus makes it right
Now let us have a little talk with Jesus
Let us tell Him all about our troubles
He will hear our faintest cry and He will answer by and by
And when you feel a little prayer wheel turnin'
And you will know a little fire is burnin'
You will find a little talk with Jesus makes it right

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Didn't She Really Thrill Them (back In 1924)

The Oak Ridge Boys – Didn't She Really Thrill Them (Back In 1924)
(Written By Allan Chapman)
She sits there on her front porch every day at 4 o'clock
Waving at the traffic that runs up and down the block
Her face and hands are wrinkled and her grey hair almost shines
Over 50 years have come and gone since she was in her prime.
A high school girl in blue jeans stops each Thursday afternoon
They talk about life and love and phases of the moon
She lets the girl try on her gown she's kept for all these years
She talks about when she was young, her old eyes filled with tears.
Didn't she really thrill them back in 1924
Young men fell in love with her
When she came through the door
Every dance was taken
Still they'd ask for just one more
Oh she stole their hearts away in 1924
She holds a photo album as she rocks there in her chair
Here's the men she almost married – they all look so debonair
She remembers all the faces and the night each one proposed
It makes her feel so young again as her old eyes slowly close.
The papers never said much when the old maid passed away
For the man who drove the moving-van it was just another day
The florist never understood when the young girl left the store
Just why she sent a wreath that said from the class of '24.
Didn't she really thrill them back in 1924
Young men fell in love with her
When she came through the door
Every dance was taken
Still they'd ask for just one more
Oh she stole their hearts away in 1924.
Didn't she really thrill them back in 1924
Young men fell in love with her
When she came through the door
Every dance was taken
Still they'd ask for just one more

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Hard To Be Cool (in A Minivan)

Sitting at a red light
Down around Sunset
Girl pulled up beside me,
In a candy-apple red Corvette
She pulled down her shades, gave me a wink,
Gave her a little smile back.
Then she laughed as she hit the gas,
I remembered where I was at.
'Cause it's hard to be cool when you're behind the wheel
Of an eight-passenger automobile.
In a big bubble, cruisin' down the street,
With-a Barney blarin' and a baby seat.
Hey, it can be done, but I'm tellin' you man,
It's hard to be cool in a minivan.
I used to have a souped-up hotrod,
Man I spared no costs.
Two-eighty four, four-on-the-floor,
Headers and dual-exhaust.
About the time the family came,
Well that's the first thing that went,
The preacher said, "For better or worse..."
Now I know just what he meant.
'Cause it's hard to be cool when you're behind the wheel
Of an eight-passenger automobile.
In a big bubble, cruisin' down the street,
With-a Barney blarin' and a baby seat.
Hey, it can be done, but I'm tellin' you man,
It's hard to be cool in a minivan.
Now, I wouldn't change my life a bit,
I'm a lucky man I know.
Just wish my wife and kids could fit,
In a '67 GTO. Ho-ho-ho.
'Cause it's hard to be cool when you're behind the wheel
Of an eight-passenger automobile.
In a big bubble, cruisin' down the street,
With-a Barney blarin' and a baby seat.
Hey, it can be done, but I'm tellin' you man,
It's hard to be cool in a minivan.
Come on boys, can I hear an "Amen"?
It's hard to be cool in a minivan.
I'm tryin' to be cool.
You kids keep it down back there,
Don't make me pull this thing over.
I mean it.
Honey, I am not lost. I am NOT lost.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Standin' By The River

The Oak Ridge Boys – Standin' By The River
(Written By Tony Arata)
Now when me and Ginny were sweet sixteen
We'd go down to the river at night.
Take a brand new penny make a wish and then
Throw it into the river wide.
She would never tell me what she wished
I never told her mine, standin' by the river.
We were standin' by the river
Holding to each other
Dreamin' bout the other side.
Well now we got married and we moved away
Had to leave the easy world behind
But we took whatever God carried our way
Made the best out of the hardest times
I would hold her in my arms at night
Dreamin' of the times standin' by the river.
We were standin' by the river
Holding to each other
Dreamin' bout the other side.
We were just like that old river
Saw a lot of things come and go
But the love we had for one another
Kept on flowing.
Now I've still got my Ginny, it's been twelve years
And we're back upon the riverbank
Gonna throw me a penny in the river again
Gonna say a little word of thanks.
God I hope her every wish came true
I know I got mine, standin' by the river
We were standin' by the river
Holding to each other
Dreamin' bout the other side.
We were standin' by the river
Holding to each other
Dreamin' bout the other side.
Yer –
Standin' by the river, Standin' by the river,

Top Oak Ridge Boys, I'll Be True to You

Just when I say
"Boy we can't miss
You are golden"
Then you do this
You say this guy is so cool
snapping his fingers like a fool
One more expensive kiss-off
Who do you think I am?
Lord I know you're a special friend
But you don't seem to understand
We got heavy rollers
I think you should know
Try again tomorrow
Can't you see they're laughing at me
Get rid off him
I don't care what you do at home
Would you care to explain
Who is the gaucho amigo
Why is he standing
In your spangled leather poncho
And your elevator shoes
Bodacious cowboys
Such as your friend
Will never be welcome here
High in the Custerdome
What I tell you
Back down the line
I'll scratch your back
You can scratch mine
No he can't sleep on the floor
What do you think I'm yelling for
I'll drop him near the freeway
Doesn't he have a home
Lord I know you're a special friend
But you refuse to understand
You're a nasty schoolboy
With no place to go
Try again tomorrow
Don't tell me he'll wait in the car
Look at you
Holding hands with the man from Rio
Would you care to explain
Who is the gaucho amigo
Why is he standing
In your spangled leather poncho
With the studs that match your eyes
Bodacious cowboys
Such as your friend
Will never be welcome here

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Any Old Time Family Bluegrass Band

We catch our memories wandering through the past from
time to time
As a mountain families’ music fills again inside our
mind
We dream about Euganean Hills and West Virginian land
And an old time family blue grass band.
Our God fearing mum and daddy raised us young ‘uns on a
song
By the banks where old new river gently sways and
rolled along
Where once upon a time there dwelled a close knit
mountain clan
An old time family blue grass band.
You never heard the like of melodies our family played
The guitar kept the rhythm as the fiddle sawed away
We recall a banjo ringing and a singing mandolin
In an old time family blue grass band.
Daddy slapped the upright, mamma strummed the other
part
We couldn’t read the music we just played it all by
heart
Lord how those songs just flowed across that fertile
mountain land
In an old time family blue grass band.
I see us sitting round the porch on starry summer
nights
I remember how the music made my world seem good and
right
When all the folks would raise their happy voices and
join in
With the old time family blue grass band.
You never heard the like of melodies our family played
The guitar kept the rhythm as the fiddle sawed away
We recall a banjo ringing and a singing mandolin
In an old time family blue grass band.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Freckles

The Oak Ridge Boys – Freckles
(Written By Sterling Whipple)
They'd all called her Freckles when summer was coming around
All the kids that were running and laughing and some turned to brown.
And I'd find her crying and hurt by the words that they said
And follow her home just trying to be her friend.
And I'd say Freckles you're pretty,
There's a rainbow on your face.
Do you want to know a secret?
None of them could take your place
Cause your different and special
And she'd hold my hand and sigh
And say I always want to see me through your eyes.
But summers just turned into winters and then into years
And slowly the smile of a woman replaced all her tears,
And some how I knew in a while that my friend would be gone
As I watched a sad ugly duckling turn into a swan.
And I said Freckles you're special
And she'd hold my hold and sigh
And say I always want to see me through your eyes.
But soon she was flying, dancing laughing and proud
And I took my place, a face alone in a crowd.
Knowing her lovers can't see past her smooth golden skin
And that's how I know that Freckles will come back again.
And I'll say Freckles I love you
There's a rainbow on your face.
Cause she'll be smiling through her teardrops
As she runs to my embrace.
Freckles you're special
And she'll take my hand and sigh
And say I only want to see me through your eyes.
And I'll say Freckles I love you
There's a rainbow on your face

Top Oak Ridge Boys, It Takes a Little Rain

(To Make Love Grow)
Sometimes we're friends
Sometimes we're strangers
And though there are tears
There's always love
It hurts when you cry
From words thrown in anger
Warm feelings run deep
But that's not enough.
It takes a little rain
To make love grow
It's the heartache and the pain
That makes the real heart show
Where the sun always shines
There's a desert below
It takes a little rain
To make love grow.
Hearts disagree then they grow closer
Honesty wins when it's someone you trust
Forever takes time
True love is never over
It's filled with new starts
Just look at us.
(Chorus)

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Trying to Love Two Women

Trying to love two women is like a ball and chain
Trying to love two women is like a ball and chain
Sometimes the pleasure ain't worth the strain
It's a long old grind and it tires your mind
Trying to hold two women is tearing me apart
Trying to hold two women is tearing me apart
One's got my money, the other's got my heart
It's a long old grind and it tires your mind
When you try to please two women, you can't please yourself
When you try to please two women, you can't please yourself
At best it's only half good, a man can't stock two shelves
It's a long old grind and it tires your mind
Trying to love two women is like a ball and chain
Trying to love two women is like a ball and chain
Sometimes the pleasure ain't worth the strain
It's a long old grind and it tires your mind
Trying to love two women is like a ball and chain
Trying to love two women is like a ball and chain
Sometimes the pleasure ain't worth the strain
It's a long old grind and it tires your mind

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Make My Life With You

Here in the day, here in the light
All I can see is you last night
Lit by the moon still by my side
Loving arms open wide.
And the love that comes over me
Is enough to make me stay.
Is it life lived separately?
Is life all it ought to be?
Oh, if it were up to me
I'd make my life with you.
Some people say it's a dangerous game
I'll take my chances just the same
If love is a game and you are the prize
You standing here is no surprise.
And the love that comes over me
Is enough to make me stay.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Gonna Take A Lot Of River

I ain't gonna ride no rail or hitchhike down no highway
I aint' going nowhere feeling the way I do
Because my baby's long gone and nothings going my way
I'm gonna let this muddy water just wash away my blues.
Chorus:
Gonna take a lot of river,
To keep this broken heart afloat,
Gonna take a lot of river
Running all the live long days,
Gonna take the Mississippi, the Monongahela and the Ohio,
Gonna take a lot of river
To wash these blues away.
Well, I wish I was tug boat pushing and pulling them barges along
Moving on the water with a heart made of iron and steel
There wouldn't be no women that could ever take my loving and do me wrong
I could work all day with nothing in the world to feel.
Chorus:
Gonna take a lot of river
To keep this broken heart afloat
Gonna take a lot of river
Running all the live long days
Gonna take the Mississippi, the Monongahela and the Ohio
Gonna take a lot of river
To wash these blues away.
Is she in new orleans
Is she a cajun queen
I wonder what she's doing now
But if I know her she's got rings and furs, struggling along somehow.
Chorus:
Gonna take a lot of river
To keep this broken heart afloat
Gonna take a lot of river
Running all the live long days
Gonna take the Mississippi, the Monongahela and the Ohio
Gonna take a lot of river
To wash these blues away.
Gonna take a lot of river
To keep this broken heart afloat
Gonna take a lot of river
Running all the live long days
Gonna take the Mississippi, the Monongahela and the Ohio
Gonna take a lot of river

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Goin' Against The Grain

Folks call me a maverick
Guess I ain't too diplomatic
I just never been the kind to go along
Just avoidin' confrontation
For the sake of conformation
And I'll admit I tend to sing a different song
But sometimes you just can't be afraid
To wear a different hat
If Columbus had complied
This old world might still be flat
Nothin' ventured, nothin' gained
Sometimes you've got to go against the grain
Well, I have been accused
Of makin' my own rules
There must be rebel blood
Just a-runnin' through my veins
But I ain't no hypocrite
What you see is what you get
And that's the only way I know
To play the game
Old Noah took much ridicule
For building his great ark
But after forty days and forty nights
He was lookin' pretty smart
Sometimes it's best to brave the wind and rain
By havin' strength to go against the grain
Well, there's more folks than a few
Who share my point of view
But they're worried
If they're gonna sink or swim
They'd like to buck the system
But the deck is tacked against ?em
And they're a little scared
To go out on a limb
But if you're gonna leave your mark
You can't follow like a bunch of sheep
You got to listen to your heart
Go bustin' in like old John Wayne
Sometimes you got to go against the grain
Nothin' ventured, nothin' gained

Top Oak Ridge Boys, I Can Count On You

You can say the word and warm the day
You can make the world spin the other way.
Some things we don't have to see to believe
Faith is the part of love that runs so deep.
I can count on you, I can trust you to be
Everything you are and that's everything I'll ever need.
I can close my eyes and let your heart lead the way.
I can count on you, I can count on you.
I know those loving eyes have seen me make mistakes
But in your heart you always look the other way.
So much tenderness, it's hard to understand
But I know my feelings are safe in your hands.
I can count on you, I can trust you to be
Every thing you are and that's everything I'll ever need.
I can close my eyes and let your heart lead the way.
I can count on you, I can count on you.
I can count on you, I can count on you.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, How Great Thou Art

Oh Lord, my God when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worrk thy hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.
When Christ shall come with shout of adulation
To take me home what joy shall fill my heart
Then I bow down in humble adoration
And there proclaim My God how great Thou art.
Then sings my soul my Saviour, God to Thee
How great thou art, how great thou art
Then sings my soul my Saviour, God, to Thee

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Heart Of Mine

There wasn't much love on the day you came
I was feelin' my way with a heart gone lame
Life was so cold right then,
I though I'd never love again
Though my dreams of romance
Blew away with the wind
O-o-o-o-oh my heart beats slow
Heart of mine,
Can we try it one more time?
Can you help but love a girl so free, so kind?
Lonely tears, helped me waiting all these years.
For the day I felt the joy of love inside.
When my hearts alive
Believe me I know that the truth sounds strange
How an innocent smile made my whole life change
You call it coincidence, but I knew she was heaven sent
When I felt that my heart was beginning to mend
Now my heart beats fast!
Heart of mine,
I think we made it just in time?
We can't help but love a girl so free, so kind?
Lonely tears, helped me look in all those years.
And today I felt the joy of love inside.
Yes my hearts alive, and growing stronger all the time
Heart of mine,
I think we made it just in time?
We can't help but love a girl so free, so kind?
Lonely tears, helped me look in all those years.
And today I felt the joy of love inside.
Heart of mine,
I think we made it just in time?

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Loving God, Loving Each Other

Loving God, loving each other,
Making music with my friends;
Loving God, loving each other,
And the music never ends.
They pushed back from the table
To listen to His words,
His secret plan before He had to go.
It's not complicated;
Don't need a lot of rules,
This is all you'll need to know.
Loving God, loving each other,
Making music with my friends;
Loving God, loving each other,
And the music never ends.
We tend to make it harder,
Build steeples out of stone,
Fill with explanations of The Way,
But if we'd stop and listen
And break a little bread,
We wuld hear the Master say
Loving God, loving each other,
Making music with my friends;
Loving God, loving each other,

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Love Song

Times are hard
you're afraid to pay the fee
So you find yourself somebody
who can do the job for free
When you need a bit of lovin'
cause your man is out of town
That's the time you get me runnin'
and you know I'll be around
(chorus)
I'm a fool to do your
dirty work, oh yeah
I don't wanna do your
dirty work, no more
I'm a fool to do your
dirty work, oh yeah
Light the candle
put the lock upon the door
You have sent the maid home early
like a thousand times before
Like the castle in its corner
in a medieval game
I foresee terrible trouble
and I stay here just the same
(chorus)
(instrumental)

Top Oak Ridge Boys, In The Shelter Of His Arms

When my soul was disturbed with sorrow
When My heart was burdened with sin
Jesus opened His arms of mercy
And tenderly took me in
There are storms that we all encounter
Do not fear they will do you no harm
In the Lord you will find protection
In the shelter of His arms
CHORUS:
There is peace in the time of trouble
There is peace in the midst of a storm
There is peace though the world be raging
In the shelter of His arms
REPEAT CHORUS:
TAG:
There is peace though the world be raging

Top Oak Ridge Boys, I Know

Some people say, that this old time religion
is just a thing of the past,
But in this modern age that we're livin',
It's the only thing that will last.
Now you may think I'm a little old fashioned,
Well friend, that's alright with me,
'Cause I'm so glad that I am a Christian,
And from sin I have been set free.
I know, I know, there's no doubt about it
He's real in my heart, and I'm gonna shout it,
I know, I know, my sins are forgiven
And I'm on my way to a place thats called heaven.
Not long ago, at an old fashioned meeting,
I knelt on my knees there in prayer.
He lifted my burdens and shackles fell from me,
And his presence was so real everywhere.
Now that the load I carry is lighter,
and He's changed the grey skies to blue,
My steps are now higher for I have this assurance,
that His sweet love will carry me through.
Come go with me to that land over yonder,
He's prepared for the pure and the true,
It's a place where sickness and death can not enter,
I'm going, brother, how about you?
Maybe today, maybe tomorrow,
He'll return in robes of pure white,
I'm packing up now, getting my things together,

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Oh Happy Day

Oh happy day (oh happy day)

He taught me how to watch, fight and pray, fight and pray
And live rejoicing every, everyday
Oh happy day
He taught me how

Top Oak Ridge Boys, O Little Town Of Bethlehem

Oh little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth, the everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight.
For Christ is born of Mary, and gathered all above
While mortals sleep the angels keep their watch of wondering love
Oh morning stars together, proclaim thy holy birth.
And praises sing to God the king, and peace to men on earth.
Oh little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth, the everlasting light

Top Oak Ridge Boys, No Matter How High

When I was a young boy, I would dream about life
And wonder just how sweet it would be
Baby, I got lucky when I met you that night
Now, you'll always have this promise from me
No matter how high I get, I'll always look up to you
You'll always be number one, I'll settle for number two
You've always been there for me, well baby, I must confess
I'll always look up to you no matter how high I get
Up here on the mountain, it gets crazy sometimes
So crazy, I don't know what to do
When I've had it up to here with all of their lies
I can count on you to tell me the truth
No matter how high I get, I'll always look up to you
You'll always be number one, I'll settle for number two
You've always been there for me, well baby, I must confess
I'll always look up to you no matter how high I get
You are the one who turned me around
You helped me keep my feet on the ground
No matter how high I get, I'll always look up to you
You'll always be number one, I'll settle for number two
You've always been there for me, well baby, I must confess
I'll always look up to you no matter how high
No matter how high I get, I'll always look up to you
You'll always be number one, I'll settle for number two
You've always been there for me, well baby, I must confess

You've always been there for me, well baby, I must confess

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Mrs. Santa Claus

Now everybody's heard of Mrs. Santa Claus
Everybody knows she's Santa's wife
Every Christmas Eve, she sits up all alone
An' waits till he gets home again all right
He says, "Don't you cry or worry, Mrs. Santa Claus
After all these years, the reindeer know their way
You know ho-ho I love you, Mrs. Santa Claus
An' I'll be home before it's Christmas day"
Now all the elves that make the toys for Santa Claus
Spend their one night off the whole year long
Singin' songs and dancin' 'round the Christmas tree
Fillin' Mrs. Santa Claus with cheer
Singin', "Don't you cry or worry, Mrs. Santa Claus
After all these years, the reindeer know their way
You know ho-ho we love you, Mrs. Santa Claus
An' Santa will be home on Christmas day"
Well, if you ever think of Mrs. Santa Claus
Sitting by herself on Christmas Eve
Maybe you could write a special Christmas card
To help poor Mrs. Santa Claus believe
Sayin', "Don't you cry or worry, Mrs. Santa Claus
After all these years, the reindeer know their way
You know ho-ho we love you, Mrs. Santa Claus
Santa will be home on Christmas day"
"You know ho-ho we love you, Mrs. Santa Claus

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Santa Claus Is Coming To Town

I just came back from a lovely trip along the Milky Way
Stopped off at the North Pole to spend a holiday
I called on dear old Santa Claus
To see what I could see
He took me to his workshop
And told his plans to me. So
[Chorus]
You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
He's making a list and checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is comin to town
He sees you when you're sleepin'
He knows when you're a wake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake
Oh! You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin' to town
With little tin horns and little toy drums
Rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums
Santa Claus is comin' to town
And curly head dolls that toddle and coo
Elephants, boats, and kiddie cars too
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Then kids in Girl and Boy land will have a jubilee
They're gonna build a Toyland all around the Christmas tree
So! You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is comin to town
Now Santa is a busy man, He has no time to play
He's got millions of stockings to fill on Christmas day
You'd better write your letter now
And mail it right away
Because he's getting ready
His reindeers and his sleigh. So
[Chorus]
With little tin horns and little toy drums
Rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums
Santa Claus is comin' to town
And curly head dolls that toddle and coo
Elephants, boats, and kiddie cars too
Santa Claus is comin' to town
Then kids in Girl and Boy land will have a jubilee
They're gonna build a Toyland all around the Christmas tree
So! You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I'm telling you why

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Sail Away

Across the bay a lady waits to hold me tight
And my boat and I are ready to set sail
If the weather keeps on holding and the wind is right
I'll be wrapped up in my sweet one's arms tonight
And we will sail away on the wings of love into the night
Cast out our fortunes on the sea
Then we will go to sleep together with the rocking of the water
And dream of how our life will someday be
When she sailed away with me
As I skip across the waves my sails are high and full
My mind is on the one I wait to see
And I dream about an island somewhere in my mind
Where someday I will take her off with me
And we will sail away on the wings of love into the night
Cast out our fortunes on the sea
Then we will go to sleep together with the rocking of the water
And dream of how our life will someday be
When she sailed away with me
Then a smile comes upon me as I look across the bow
And I see a lady on the side
But she will wait no more as I head for the shore
Cause tonight I'm gonna take her for a ride
And we will sail away on the wings of love into the night
Cast out our fortunes on the sea
Then we will go to sleep together with the rocking of the water
And dream of how our life will someday be
When she sails away
We will sail away on the wings of love into the night
Cast out our fortunes on the sea
Then we will go to sleep together with the rocking of the water
And dream of how our life will someday be
When she sails away
We will sail away on the wings of love into the night

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Rhythm Guitar

Nobody wants to play rhythm guitar behind Jesus
Everybody wants to be the lead singer in the band
A preacher I once talked to in Washington DC
He told me preaching the gospel isn't all that it should be
I said that it didn't really surprise me but I've often wonder why
I never forget the words he said or the look that was in his eye
He said Nobody wants to play rhythm guitar behind Jesus
It seems like Everybody wants to be the lead singer in the band
I know it's hard to get a bead on what we find
When everybody pushing for the head of the line
I know it ain't working out at all the way he planned when
I once shared a pizza with a pop star on the new york city street
He was the most unhappy prophet you would ever want to meet
He said he really wanted to save the world he just couldn't imagine how
But he'd written a song about what's gone wrong and I'm singing it now
He said Nobody wants to play rhythm guitar behing Jesus
It seems like Everybody wants to be the lead singer in the band
I know it's hard to get a bead on what we find
When everybody pushing for the head of the line
I know it ain't working out at all the way he planned when
Nobody wants to play rhythm guitar behing Jesus

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Ozark Mountain Jubilee

I hear a rooster crowin'
It's a frosty mornin'
I can almost see the sign
Goin' so fast I can't stop
I'm just a stones-throw from Little Rock
Headin' for that Missouri line
Don't need a map to get there
You can get there from anywhere
When you're goin' in your head
I can see the arms outreachin'
Just like the day I was leavin'
It's been oh, so many years
Let me get on the Frisco Silver Dollar Line
Take my time and see all I can see
Fiddler rosin up your bow
We'll have our own Ozark Mountain Jubilee
If I can't be a favorite son
I'll be the prodigal one
'Cause I've been gone too long
Oh, how the years have flown by
Oh, how I've realized
How much of me is gone
Let me get on the Frisco Silver Dollar Line
Take my time and see all I can see
Fiddler rosin up your bow

Top Oak Ridge Boys, DREAM ON

Lay your head down on my shoulder
I won't let the night get colder
I'll protect you, I'll be keepin'
trouble far from where you're sleepin'
Until you wake in the mornin'
you've got the world to yourself
(chorus)
Dream on
Dream about the world we're
gonna live in one fine day
Dream on
Spend the night in heaven
I'll be here to light your way
Someday tomorrow will smile
But little girl, in the meanwhile
dream on
You're a princess, chains around you
I'm a hero who just found you
Till a brand new day must wake you
let imagination take you
Go where the music is playing
I'll be along in awhile
(chorus)
Dream on
Dream about the world we're
gonna live in one fine day
Dream on
Spend the night in heaven
I'll be here to light your way

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Mary Christmas

It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
She is the only thing I want
Another year has come and gone
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
I've been sitting by the phone, waiting for her call
One short ring and I'll be gone to get my baby doll
We're gonna rock around the clock down at the Legion hall
I can't wait to hear her say, "Merry Christmas, merry away"
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
She is the only thing I want
Another year has come and gone
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
I wrote a letter to Santa Claus, just like I was a little child
And all I need is a little love, all wrapped up in her smile
I've been good but I've been better, just a little while
Must have read between the lines, it won't be long, you'll still be mine
It's gonna be a merry Christmas
It's gonna be a merry Christmas
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
She is the only thing I want
Another year has come and gone
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
It's Christmas, Mary's coming home
She is the only thing I want
Another year has come and gone

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Mama's Table

We pull a chair up every night and eat and talk and joke and fight
Us kids learned wrong from right at mama's table
With just some hickory wood and screws it's where my daddy read the news
you didn't put your dirty shoes on mama's table
It was the center of the best times I remember
Sometimes the only thing that brought us all together
Grandma passed it down when I was in a cradle
It's in my kitchen now but it's still my mama's table
It's where my brother and I played games
I just knew he'd gone insane the day he carved his name in mama's table
And when we got down on our luck it seemed like it held us up
you could always feel the love in mama's table
It was the center of the best times I remember
Sometimes the only thing that brought us all together
Grandma passed it down when I was in a cradle
It's in my kitchen now but it's still my mama's table
It has some faded spots and cracks and a couple of burns from candle wax

Top Oak Ridge Boys, I Guess It Never Hurts to Hurt Sometimes

Sometimes I feel a wave
Of a past break in my mind
And I know it's gone for good
And it makes me want to cry
Is this all we get to keep
As the years go rollin' by
Just a memory
For all the days gone by.
Oh you're always in my heart
And you're often on my mind
I will never let it die
Just as long as I'm alive
Sometimes it makes me sad
That we never said goodbye
Oh I guess it never hurts
To hurt sometimes.
You try and hold on to the moment
But time won't let you stay
But for every step you take
You lose something on the way
You can't look forward to tomorrow
And still hold on to yesterday
Oh I hope that you can hear me
When I'm saying

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Fancy Free

I'm sitting fancy free, because she was to go
She's tired of loving me, she told me so
I guess she don't know just how much she means to me
But along with all my dreams I'm sitting fancy-free
Yes, I'm sitting fancy-free even though I love her still
She'd be no good to me if I held her against her will
Even though that girl she's the best part of my world
Along with all my dreams I'm sitting fancy-free
Oh Lord, you just don't know how it hurts to say goodbye
She did her best to stay I can't say she did not try
I just hope the road she takes leads back to me
So along with all my dreams I'm sitting fancy-free
Yes, I'm sitting fancy-free even though I love her still
She'd be no good to me if I held her against her will
Even though that girl she's the best part of my world
Along with all my dreams I'm sitting fancy-free
Yes, I'm sitting fancy-free even though I love her still
She'd be no good to me if I held her against her will
Even though that girl she's the best part of my world
Along with all my dreams I'm sitting fancy-free
Yes, I'm sitting fancy-free even though I love her still
She'd be no good to me if I held her against her will
Even though that girl she's the best part of my world

Top Oak Ridge Boys, American Made

Seems everything I buy these days has got a foreign name
From the kind of car I drive to my video game
I've got a Nikon camera, a Sony color TV.
But the one that I love is from the USA standing next to me.
My baby is American made
Born and bred in the USA
From her silky long hair to her sexy long legs
My baby is American made
She looks good in her tight blue jeans she bought in Mexico
And she loves wearing French perfume everywhere we go
But when it comes to the loving heart, one thing is true
My baby's genuine USA red, white and blue
My baby is American made
Born and bred in the USA
From her silky long hair to her sexy long legs
My baby is American made
My baby is American made(oh yes she is)
Born and bred in the USA
From her silky long hair to her sexy long legs
My baby is American made
My baby is American made
Born and bred in the USA
From her silky long hair to her sexy long legs

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Bobbie Sue

I only remember That you said good-bye
and your absence still hurts
It even feels
Fresh, humid, present...
The flavor, of your last kiss
Pure like a white rose.
With every drop of rain a memory
penetrates in my harmed soul
and already forgotten sadnesses are reborn
Every time....
Your absence
hurts me more
but even this way it hurts less than your good-bye ...
A never pronounced good-bye
and finally I am alone but with a bitter flavor...
In the middle of the cold
and the darkness
With a deep,pain in my soul
a soul that, crushes...
under the shade of your oblivion
that so much I hate
that still reigns in my lips...
The so sweet flavor of you
that flavor that so much I love
and today it's only a magical moment of time .
In the middle of the cold
and the darkness...
With a deep pain in my soul
Today is only a magical moment, of the time
The flavor of your last kiss
Pure like,a white rose...
With a deep pain in my soul
The so sweet flavor of you
Pure like a white rose
With a deep pain in my soul
The so sweet flavor of you

Top Oak Ridge Boys, I Know What Lies Ahead

Oak Ridge Boys
From the Heart
I Know What Lies Ahead
This road I'm on is straight and narrow
But it leads to a better home.
It was laid by Christ one day at Calvary.
While He suffered all alone
This road may lead over many high mountains
And valleys dark and low.
But, I'll walk each day with sweet assurance
And safely I'll reach my home.
CHORUS:
Ahead there's joy and gladness
And rest for the weary soul.
Ahead there's peace and continment
Everybody will be whole
I'll be at home with Jesus
Where tears will never be shed.
Though often this road gets rough and rocky
Still I know what lies ahead.
While on this road I get so weary
And often my feet would stray.
But a gentle hand still leads me onward
And helps me find the way.
As I climb each hill and cross each valley,
By his hand I'm daily lead.
But I won't look back, gonna keep on walking
For I know what lies ahead.
CHORUS:
Ahead there's joy and gladness
And rest for the weary soul.
Ahead there's peace and continment
Everybody will be whole
I'll be at home with Jesus
Where tears will never be shed.
Though often this road gets rough and rocky
Still I know what lies ahead.
TAG:
Though often this road gets rough and rocky

Top Oak Ridge Boys, G.I. Joe And Lillie

He was a streetwise kid from Philly
Just 19 in '44
Joined up in Uncle's army
Hit the beach and fought a war
A decorated hero
He never talks about those days
Because of guys like G.I. Joe our country's free today
She was Woman's Army corp
Raised in Carolina dirt
Escorting wounded young men home
From a burning hell on Earth
The first time that she saw him
He was broken and alone
Lillie fell in love that day
When he winked and said Hello
And Lillie sang this song to G.I. Joe
Let me hold you in my arms handsome soldier
Take my hand for we are going home today
Let me kiss away your tears
Let me pray away your fears
I'll stay here with you
Till they carry us away
They married in the spring
All dressed up in army green
Took out a loan, bought a home
Raised a family
The war returned to G.I. Joe in 1965
The old wounds came back to haunt him
But Lillie's love kept him alive
Now they're living in a veteran's home
They've both grown old and gray
The medals earned so long ago
Now hang there in a case
Sometimes she finds him weeping
As he lay there in his bed
The distant sounds of battle
Still echo in his head
And Lillie sings this song to G.I. Joe
Some day they'll rest in Arlington
'Neath the red, the white and blue
Safe in the arms of Jesus
When their journey here is through
An American love story
Not unlike a lot of others
Except that G.I. Joe and Lillie

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Christmas Is Paintin' The Town

Can't you see it, can't you hear it
It's everywhere, it's Christmas
Sidewalk Santa, children with dreams
Asking him, please...
It's Christmas
It's Christmas, it's paintin' the town
With red and silver bells and laughter all around
With scurring people and greetings as you near
Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!
Hearts grow lighter, smiles get wider

Choir's singin', church bells ringin'
Loved ones are here, it's Christmas

With red and silver bells and laughter all around
With the magical morning and children as they cheer
Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!
It's Christmas, it's paintin' the town

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Emmylou

Oh ho, Emmylou. Emmylou,
What in the world can I do?
Spend my life just trying to get close to you
Heaven is a girl named Emmylou.
Trailed you out to Houston
To a hotel downtown,
Followed you down the corridor
But you never turned around.
But one of your big old bodyguards
Suggested that I leave
He didn't seem to appreciate
The patch upon my sleeve.
That read
Oh. ho, Emmylou. Emmylou,
Just a fan whose in love with you.
Spend most of my time trying to talk to you
Heaven is a girl named Emmylou.
I heard you went to LA
So I hitched myself a ride
California dreaming of me
Right there by your side.
Out at the Palomino Club
I watched you all night long
Until you looked right at me
In the words of your last song.
I asked you for your guitar pick
That's all that I could say
Then the limo did appear
And took the queen away.
Oh ho, Emmylou. Emmylou,
What in the world can I do?
Spend my life just trying to get close to you
Heaven is a girl named Emmylou.
Well I love Olivia's eyes
And Ronstadt's really nice

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Everyday

Holy world hidden in pain,
Pain that flies through the air
Glance of sadness you could perceive
Gazes that strengthen your heart
Shinning sun light the town
The evil hides in the dark
Children looking for in the sky
Quietness and peace for their lives
Winds of love caress their faces
Angels hold their hearts
Smiling faces feeling the light
Pure and innocent hearts

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Go tell it on the mountain

Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
While shepherds kept their watching
Over silent flocks by night
Behold throughout the heavens
There shone a holy light
Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
The shepherds feared and trembled
When lo! above the earth
Rang out the angels chorus
That hailed the Savior's birth
Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
Down in a lowly manger
The humble Christ was born
And God sent us salvation
That blessèd Christmas morn
Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Cryin' Again

You told me that our love was forever
But you never really meant it that way
You said we had a sweet situation
But I'm waking up without you instead
Cryin' again, we're out of love again
Cryin' again like we've nearly always been
Cryin' again, I wonder when I won't be cryin' again
I thought we had a real understanding
But you never understood what I said
The magic didn't last like we planned it
But we've wasted all the feelings instead
Cryin' again, we're out of love again
Cryin' again like we've nearly always been
Cryin' again, I wonder when I won't be cryin' again
Cryin' again, we're out of love again
Cryin' again like we've nearly always been
Cryin' again, I wonder when I won't be cryin' again
Cryin' again, we're out of love again
Cryin' again like we've nearly always been

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Daddy Sang Bass

I remember when I was a lad
Times were hard and things were bad
But there's a silver linin' behind every cloud
Just poor people that's all we were
Tryin' to make a livin' out of blackland earth
But we'd get together in a family circle singin' loud ...
CHORUS
Daddy sang bass, Mama sang tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
Singin' seems to help a troubled soul
One of these days and it won't be long
I'll rejoin them in a song
I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne ...
No, the circle won't be broken
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye ...
Daddy'll sing bass, Mama'll sing tenor
Me and little brother will join right in there
In the sky, Lord, in the sky.
Now I remember after work,
Mama would call in all of us
You could hear us singin' for a country mile
Now little brother has done gone on
But I'll rejoin him in a song
We'll be together again up yonder in a little while.
CHORUS
Daddy sang bass, Mama sang tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
Singin' seems to help a troubled soul
One of these days and it won't be long
I'll rejoin them in a song
I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne ...
No, the circle won't be broken
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye ...
Daddy'll sing bass, Mama'll sing tenor
Me and little brother will join right in there
In the sky, Lord, in the sky.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Dancing the Night Away

Standing beside of the deep ocean
Looking out across the water
Everything is beautiful here
But I still don't feel like I oughta.
Things we wanted
Not so long ago
I got 'em all now, baby
But I ain't got you no more.
But I remember the way you held me
And all the sweet things you used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancin' the night away.
I remember everything
Dresses you used to wear
You were so light and graceful
You seem to float right through the air.
Me, I looked so funny dancin'
But you loved me anyhow
Aw, I wish I could find somebody
That love me like that now.
But I remember the way you held me
And all the sweet things you used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancin' the night away.
Ah ha.., woo
--- Instrumental ---
Standing beside of the deep ocean
Looking out across the bay
I should look for companionship
But it just gets in my way.
The lights are flickerin'
All along the shore
I see people dancin' there
But I just don't dance no more.
Because I remember the way you held me
And all the sweet things you used to say
When we were two young lovers
Dancin' the night away.
Hey, let's see you dance
Let me see you dance
Oh, baby, let me see you dance.
I want to see you dance
I want to see you dance one more time
Oh, babe, let me see you dance, dance, dance.
I want to see you dance
Let me see you dance
Oh, babe, let me see you dance
I want to see you dance
I want to see you dance
Oh, babe, let me see you dance
Just one more time
I want to see you dance the night away
I want to see you dance
Oh, babe, let me see you dance.
One more time
I gotta see you dance now
In that pretty red dress
I want to see you dance.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Easy

All the boys called her Easy
Took her to drive-in movies
And bragged about the good times they had.
The girls talked about her
And had parties without her
And wondered why a girl would let herself go so bad.
[Chorus:]
They called her Easy, Easy
And laughed about how easy she was
They called her Easy, Easy
They said she was easy to love.
They didn't care if she was lonely
They didn't care if she was only reaching out
The only way she could.
They didn't try to understand her
And this small town talk branded her
With names that said she wasn't any good.
[Chorus]
Easy's child came early
It seemed in such a hurry
For one who'd go through life without a name.
Easy's eyes were brighter
Than the moonlight on the water
When they handed her the child no one would claim.
My friends thought I was crazy
To love Easy and her baby
They said I was a fool, but I just smiled.
'Cause love is what you make it
Any way you finally take it
it's the only thing that makes life worthwhile.
Now she's Easy, she's Easy
And life is not as lonely as it was
Because she's Easy, she's Easy
she's so easy to love.
Now she's Easy, she's Easy

Top Oak Ridge Boys, This Little Light Of Mine

chorus
this little light of mine im gonna let it shine x3
let it shine, let it shine, let it shine
the light that shines is the light of love
lights the darkness from above
its shines on me and it shines on you
and shows what the power of love can do
im gonna shine my light both far and near
im gonna shine my light both bright and clear
and when there's a dark corner in this land
im gonna let my little light shine
chorus
on Monday he gave me the gift of love
Tuesday peace came from above
on Wednesday he told me to have more faith
on Thursday he gave me a little more grace
on Friday he told me to watch and pray
Saturday he told me just what to say
on Sunday he gave me the power of to let my little light shine
chorus

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Touch A Hand Make A Friend

Can't you feel it in your bones?
The change is coming on
From every walk of life

Can't you feel it in your heart, now?
A new thing is taking shape
Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can
Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can
Reach out and touch a hand

A new thing is taking shape
Reach out and touch a hand

A new thing is taking shape
Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can
Reach out and touch a hand
Make a friend if you can
Reach out and touch a hand

Top Oak Ridge Boys, True Heart

Some people spend night and day
Making money they can hide away.
They never know what they're working for.
All they think about is making more.
And every time the world spins round
There's a few more hearts that can't be found
Cause they never had nothing to hold on to
The way that I'm holding you.
All ever need is your true heart
Next to me when it's cold and dark.
All I need to keep from falling apart
Is the beat of your true heart.
Some people spend day and night
Trying to love everybody in sight
They never know what love is for
All they think about is keeping the score.
And every time the world spins round
There's a few more hearts that can't be found
Cause they never had nothing to hold on to
The way that I'm holding you.
All ever need is your true heart
Next to me when it's cold and dark.
All I need to keep from falling apart
Is the beat of your true heart.
Your true heart.
(Instrumental)
No they never had nothing to hold on to
The way that I'm holding you.
All ever need is your true heart
Next to me when it's cold and dark.
All I need to keep from falling apart

All ever need is your true heart
Next to me when it's cold and dark.
All I need to keep from falling apart
Is the beat of your true heart.
All ever need is your true heart
Next to me when it's cold and dark.
All I need to keep from falling apart

Top Oak Ridge Boys, The Baptism Of Jesse Taylor

Among the local taverns they'll be a slack in business
'Cause Jesse's drinkin' came before the groceries and the rent
Among the local women they'll be a slack in cheatin'
'Cause Jesse won't be steppin' out again
They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday
Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm
They all cried, "Hallelujah" when Jesse's head went under
'Cause this time he went under for the Lord
The scars on Jesse's knuckles were more than just respected
The county courthouse records tell all there is to tell
The pockets of the gamblers will soon miss Jesse's money
And the black eye of the law will soon be well
They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday
Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm
They all cried, "Hallelujah" when Jesse's head went under
'Cause this time he went under for the Lord
From now on Nancy Taylor can proudly speak to neighbors
Tell them how much Jesse took up with little Jim
Now Jimmy's got a daddy and Jesse's got a family
And Franklin County's got a lot more man
They baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday
Jesus gained a soul and Satan lost a good right arm
They all cried, "Hallelujah" when Jesse's head went under
'Cause this time he went under for the Lord
I know they baptized Jesse Taylor in Cedar Creek last Sunday

And he shall reign for ever for ever and ever.
King of kings, and lord of lords. King of kings and lord of lords.
And he shall reign for ever for ever and ever.
For ever and ever. For ever and ever.
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, The Old Country Church

There's a place near to me, where I'm longing to be
With my friends at the old country church
There with mother we went, and our Sundays were spent
With our friends at the old country church.
As a small country boy, how my heart beat with joy
When I knelt in the old country church
And the Savior above, by His wonderful love
Saved my soul at the old country church.
How I wish that today all the people would pray
As we prayed in the old country church
If they'd only confess, Jesus surely would bless
As he did in the old country church.
Of't my thoughts make me weep, for so many now sleep
In their graves near the old country church
And sometime I may rest, with the friends I love best
In a grave near the old country church.
Precious years of memories,
Oh what joy they bring to me ( they bring to me)
How I long once more to be,

Top Oak Ridge Boys, The Old Rugged Cross Made The Difference

And the old rugged cross made the difference
In a life bound for heartache and defeat;
I will praise Him forever and ever
For the cross made the difference for me.
The Old Rugged Cross Made The Difference lyrics
'Twas a life filled with aimless desperation
Without hope walked the shell of a man;
Then a hand with a nailprint stretched downward,
Just one touch then a new life began.
And the old rugged cross made the difference
In a life bound for heartache and defeat;
I will praise Him forever and ever

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Santa's Song

Well, my name is Santa and I live up north
Gonna land my reindeer on your porch
If you've been good, little girls and boys
I'll put some goodies in your stockings
And I'll leave you some toys
All night long, I'm singin' my song
Sayin' Ho Ho Ho as I'm flyin' along
Got a big ol' belly that shakes when I laugh
With a lot of ground to cover, I've gotta move fast
On Dasher and Blitzen, got a lot to do
When the sun comes up tomorrow, we gotta be through
All night long, I'm singin' my song
Sayin' Ho Ho Ho as I'm flyin' along
Got a long white beard that gets in the way
Got a red and white suit and a magic sleigh
Got a lot of little elves that help me do it right
Merry Christmas to you all and to all a good night
All night long, I'm singin' my song
Sayin' Ho Ho Ho as I'm flyin' along
All night long, I'm singin' my song

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Thank God for Kids

If it weren't for kids have you ever thought
There wouldn't be no Santa Claus
Or look what the stork just brought
Thank God for kids.
And we'd all live in a quiet house
With-out Big Bird or Mickey Mouse
And Kool Aid on the couch
Thank God for kids.
Thank God for kids, there's magic for a while
A special kind of sunshine in a smile
Do you ever stop to think or wonder why
The nearest thing to heaven is a child.
When you get down on your knees tonight
To thank the Lord for His guiding light
And pray they turn out rignt
Thank God for kids.
Daddy, how does this thing fly?
And a hundred other wheres and whys
You really don't know but you try
Thank God for kids.
When you look down in those trusting eyes
That look to you, you realize
There's a love that you can't buy

Top Oak Ridge Boys, If All I Had Left

Money is a prison in which I have done time
Material possessions will steal your heart blind
Love ever faithful precious and true
Is the only thing that in hard times will safely see you through.
If all I had left in life was you
I'd have all I needed and when each day was through
I'd walk out in the night and thank my lucky stars above
If all that I had left in life was you to love.
Sometimes late at night a little fear creeps in
That one day I will lose what I've worked so hard to win
You come to me with kisses that ease away my doubt
Baby you're the only thing I can't live without.
If all I had left in life was you
I'd have all I needed and when each day was through
I'd walk out in the night and thank my lucky stars above
If all that I had left in life was you to love.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, When I'm With You

I know it's late to be calling
But I just can't get to sleep
I've got something heavy on my mind
And I'm afraid it just won't keep
You always understand my feelings
And you love the hurt away
There's not a single doubt left in my mind
With you is where I need to stay
When I'm with you
I find myself believing
In your love, just enough
To make my dream come true
When I'm with you
I wonder where dreams stop and you begin
Time and again
The dream comes true for me when I'm with you
My cup is full and running over
With sweet love that came from you
What I'm saying's coming from my heart
I'll be forever loving you

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Did I Make A Difference

I'm caught up in the push and shove
The daily grind, burning time, spinning wheels
I wonder what I'm doing here
Day to day, year to year, standing still
Somewhere there's a teacher with a heart that never quits
Staying after school to help some inner city kids
A mother who's a volunteer, a soldier in the fight
I can't help but ask myself when I lay down at night
Did I make a difference in somebody's life?
What hurts did I heal? What wrongs did I right?
Did I raise my voice in defense of the truth?
Did I lend my hand to the destitute?
When my race is run, when my song is sung
Will I have to wonder, did I make a difference?
Did I make a difference?
I've been working hard to make a living
And forgetting what true living is
Taking more than giving, something's missing
Lord, how long can I go on like this?
There's a lonely old man down the street
And I should be ashamed
I've never been to see him, I don't even know his name
There's kids without their supper in my own neighborhood
Will I look back someday and say that I did all I could?
Did I make a difference in somebody's life?
What hurts did I heal? What wrongs did I right?
Did I raise my voice in defense of the truth?
Did I lend my hand to the destitute?
When my race is run, when my song is sung
Will I have to wonder, did I make a difference?
Did I make a difference?
When my race is run, when my song is sung
Will I have to wonder, did I make a difference?
Did I make a difference?
When my race is run, when my song is sung
Will I have to wonder, did I make a difference?

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Family Reunion

Mama taught us how to sing in harmony
Grandma used to stomp her foot and slap her knee
I can still hear daddy singin'
Down by the old mill stream
When uncle Jim played the fiddle
You could hear it talk you could hear it sing
And it echoed down the mountains
To those Georgia pines
Ran through Tennessee just like that old moonshine
Old Joe Clark Cripple Creek Annie Get Your Gun
I guess my old time favorite was that Fox on the Run
Like a fox, like a fox on the run
[ fiddle - dobro ]
Grandpa played the dobro till the break of dawn
Me I had this guitar and I'd strum along
Carol played the washboard and the tamborine
Little Mary Beth would always help us sing
And it echoed down the mountains
To those Georgia pines
Ran through Tennessee just like that old moonshine
Old Joe Clark Cripple Creek Annie Get Your Gun
I guess my old time favorite was that Fox on the Run
Like a fox, like a fox on the run
Oh like a fox on the run, like a fox on the run
Oh like a fox on the run, like a fox on the run

Top Oak Ridge Boys, When Love Calls You

When you cross my mind
I hear the echo and I feel the night
I held your hand and said I'm so in love with you
But you didn't love me too
You said love makes you sad
Well there's something you should know
In the end it's really all you have to show
So don't turn away
When love calls you
Show your hearts true
Open up and let her in
Then the lesson will begin
She'll unfold you
She'll control you
But the times you'll have to show
Are the best you'll ever know
I hope love calls you
When you cross my heart
There's still a tenderness I feel
It's a feeling that I try to share with you
But you didn't want to
Now some would say I lost
But knowing love was worth the cost
And if she would call my name again today

Top Oak Ridge Boys, New Way Out

The Oak Ridge Boys – New Way Out
(Written By Randy Sharp)
I know how hard she'll take it
When she finds out I can't stay
So I don't want to have to tell her
If there's any other way.
Is there any new way out
Hearts are never broken.
Is there any new way out?
And no-one's ever hurt in anger.
New way out, and harsh words are never spoken.
Is there any new way out?
Now it only stands to reason
With all the plans that miss
That someone might have stumbled
On a better way than this.
Is there any new way out
Where tears are never needed?
Is there any new way out
Where no-one ever needs surrender
New way out, neither side's mistreated.
Is there any new way out?
Is there any new way out
Where hearts are never broken?
Is there any new way out
And no-one's ever hurt in anger?
New way out, and harsh words are never spoken.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Sometimes The Rain Won't Let Me Sleep

You always loved the rain
You said it made your flowers grow
Your roses bloomed where others died
They loved you, I suppose
And it rained all night the first time
You gave your love to me
Now sometimes the rain won't let me sleep.
Sometimes the rain won't let me sleep
Cause each teardrop from heaven
brings flooding memories
I can make it through the sunshine
pretending you're with me
but sometimes the rain won't let me sleep.
You never were as strong as your love was for me
And that night you traded life for life
it rained inside of me
And how I love our little boy
you trusted me to keep
ah, but sometimes the rain won't let me sleep.
Sometimes the rain won't let me sleep
Cause each teardrop from heaven
brings flooding memories
I can make it through the sunshine
pretending you're with me
but sometimes the rain won't let me sleep.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, You Ain't Gonna Blow My House Down

Top Oak Ridge Boys, This Crazy Love

It'll lead you on, it'll run you off
Hurt twice as long when you're double-crossed
It's hard to trust, this crazy love
It's a breaking heart at the bitter end
Bouncing back just to fall again
It's winning big a losing touch
Oh, this crazy love
Oh, this crazy love
It gives and it takes when it's strong
Nothing takes its place when it's gone
First it's good news and then it's goodbye
But the good is worth the tears that you cry
It'll fly you high, it'll shoot you down
Toss you hard in the lost and found
It pays love, this crazy love
It's a game of hearts, jokers wild
Come on look or a tender smile
Raise your hand or call your bluff
Oh, this crazy love
Oh, this crazy love
It'll lead you on, it'll run you off
Hurt twice as long when you're double-crossed
It's hard to trust, this crazy love
It's a breaking heart at the bitter end
Bouncing back just to fall again
It's winning big, a losing touch
Oh, this crazy love
Oh, this crazy love
Oh, this crazy love
Oh, this crazy love
Oh, this crazy love

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Our Love Is Here To Stay

The Oak Ridge Boys – Our Love Is Here To Stay
(Written By J.D. Martin-John Jarrard)
They all said our love was too long a shot
If we had listened to them we wouldn't have what we've got.
I know we've struggled all the way
But we survived to say
Our love is here to stay
CHORUS:
Through the storms, through the nights
You and I held each other tight
Knowing the dawn was never far away.
Oh through it all we have found
Our love is standing on solid ground
It's alive and well today
Our love is here to stay.
Baby looking back on where we've been
If I had the chance I'd do it all again
Bring on tomorrow come what may
There's nothing we can't face
Our love is here to stay.
CHORUS
Oh yer, oh through it all we have found
Our love is standing on solid ground
It's alive and well today
Our love is here to stay.
Through the nights. through the night
You and I held each other tight
Knowing the dawn was never far away.
Oh through it all we have found
Our love is standing on solid ground
It's alive and well today

Top Oak Ridge Boys, What A Friend We Have In Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.
2. Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
3. Are we weak and heavy laden,
cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In his arms he'll take and shield thee;

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Up On Cripple Creek

When I get off of this mountain, you know where I want to go?
Straight down the Mississippi river, to the Gulf of Mexico
To Lake Charles, Louisiana, little Bessie, girl that I once knew
She told me just to come on by, if there's anything she could do
Up on Cripple Creek she sends me
If I spring a leak she mends me
I don't have to speak, she defends me
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one
Good luck had just stung me, to the race track I did go
She bet on one horse to win and I bet on another to show
The odds were in my favor, I had 'em five to one
When that nag to win came around the track, sure enough she had won
Up on Cripple Creek she sends me
If I spring a leak she mends me
I don't have to speak, she defends me
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one
I took up all of my winnings, and I gave my little Bessie half
And she tore it up and threw it in my face, just for a laugh
Now there's one thing in the whole wide world, I sure would like to see
That's when that little love of mine, dips her doughnut in my tea
Up on Cripple Creek she sends me
If I spring a leak she mends me
I don't have to speak, she defends me
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one
Now me and my mate were back at the shack, we had Spike Jones on the box
She said, "I can't take the way he sings, but I love to hear him talk"
Now that just gave my heart a throb, to the bottom of my feet
And I swore and I took another pull, my Bessie can't be beat
Now there's a flood out in California and up north it's freezing cold
And this living on the road is getting pretty old
So I guess I'll call up my big mama, tell her I'll be rolling in
But you know, deep down, I'm kind of tempted
To go and see my Bessie again.
Up on Cripple Creek she sends me
If I spring a leak she mends me
I don't have to speak, she defends me

Top Oak Ridge Boys, When Karen Comes Around

Thought I had my life together
Things were going so fine
We encounter stormy weather
But we always found the sunshine
I thought I covered everything
Everything that life could bring and more
But I forgot to close one door.
When Karen comes around
I don't know what to do
I got everything I found
My heart divided in two
When Karen goes away
My need is never true
My world turns upside down
When Karen comes around.
Did I planed to far ahead
I don't know is hard to tell
I made my choice I made my bed
Lately I don't sleep so well
I really thought we had it all
Stone by stone I builded a wall around you
Oh but then out of the blue.
Karen comes around
And I don't know what to do
I got everything I found
My heart divided in two
When Karen goes away
For me is never true
My wall comes tumbling down
When Karen comes around.
Karen comes around
And I don't know what to do
I got everything I found
My heart divided in two
When Karen goes away
For me is never true
My wall comes tumbling down

Top Oak Ridge Boys, When I Lay My Burdens Down

When I lay my burdens down some day
Recieve a crown that will never fade away
Tears are wiped from eyes, Hearts bleed no more inside.
When I lay my burdens some day
[Bass Solo:]
When I lay my burden down some day
I'll say hello to many friends of yesterday
[High solo:]
Oh, Heaven's gates will open wide, recieve me on the other side.
When I lay my burdens down some day
Long will be the tears of life I have long.
Joy will take their place. Into heaven I have flown.
So, up here I will stay and be faithful all the way

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Why Me

Why me Lord, what have I ever done
To deserve even one
Of the pleasures I've known
Tell me Lord, what did I ever do
That was worth loving you
Or the kindness you've shown.
Lord help me Jesus, I've wasted it so
Help me Jesus I know what I am
Now that I know that I've need you so
Help me Jesus, my soul's in your hand.
Tell me Lord, if you think there's a way
I can try to repay
All I've taken from you
Maybe Lord, I can show someone else
What I've been through myself
On my way back to you.
Lord help me Jesus, I've wasted it so
Help me Jesus I know what I am
Now that I know that I've need you so

Top Oak Ridge Boys, White Christmas

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

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Write Your Name (Across My Heart)

I can't help smiling when I look at you,
To keep from going crazy is all I can do.
I'm so defenseless with you so close,
The walls have crumbled from my body and soul.
Write your name across my heart.
I want the world to know that I am yours forever.
And I will wear it like a shining star.
Write your name across my heart.
To you my life is an open door.
Everything I have is yours.
I'll try to give you everything you need,
But as far as love goes, there's a life-time guarantee.
Write your name across my heart.
I want the world to know that I am yours forever.
And I will wear it like a shining star.
Write your name across my heart.
In all my thoughts, in all I do, in all I say,
I belong to you with every breath I take....
Write your name across my heart,
I want the world to know that I am yours forever.
And I will wear it like a shining star.
Write your name, across my heart.
And I will wear it like a shining star,
Write your name across my heart.
Across my heart.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Winter Wonderland

Sleigh Bells ring are ya' listenin
In the lane snow is glistenin'
A beautiful sight we're happy tonight
Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland
Gone away is the blue bird
Here to stay is the new bird
He sings a love song
As we go along
Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say "are you married?"
We'll say "No man,
But you can do the job when you're in town!"
Later on we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unfraid the plans that we've made
Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland
(instrumental)
(Oh Yea!)
Hey come let's go out into the snow
To a Winter Wonderland
Hats, Gloves, Boots, Ya'll
Better make sure you've got em' all
Please take my persuasion
'Cause outside everybody's havin' fun!
In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with Mr. Snowman
Until the other children come around
(Until the alligators knock him down)
Knock him down
Over the ground there's a mantle of white
A heaven of diamonds shine down through the night
Our hearts will be thrillin'
In spite of a chillin'
Let's go walkin' in the snow
In this wonderland (Come on everybody)
Let's go!
We're walkin in a Winter Wonderland

Top Oak Ridge Boys, You'll Never Walk Alone

When you walk through a storm
Hold your chin up high
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm
Is a golden sky
And the sweet, silver song of a lark.
Walk on, through the wind,
Walk on, through the rain,
Though your dreams be tossed and blown.
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone,

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Y'all Come Back Saloon

She played tambourine with a silver jingle
And she must have known the words to at least a million tunes
But the one most requested by the man she knew as "cowboy"
Was the late night benediction at the Y'all Come Back Saloon.
In a voice soft and trembling, she'd sing her song to cowboy
As a smoky halo circled round her raven hair
And all the fallen angels and pinball playing rounders
Stopped the games that they'd been playing for the losers evening prayer.
Faded love and faded memories
How the linger in her mind
Miles and years played the cowboy
Like and old melody out of tune and out of time.
Every night in the shadows thinking back on Amarillo
He'd dream of better days and ask for faded love
Lifting high his glass in honor of the lady and her song
He paid his check then lonely walked the broken cowboy home.
She played tambourine with a silver jingle
And she must have known the words to at least a million tunes
But the one most requested by the man she knew as "cowboy"
Was the late night benediction at the Y'all Come Back Saloon.
She played tambourine with a silver jingle
And she must have known the words to at least a million tunes
But the one most requested by the man she knew as "cowboy"
Was the late night benediction at the Y'all Come Back Saloon.

And she must have known the words to at least a million tunes
But the one most requested by the man she knew as "cowboy"

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Oak Ridge Boys Collection

There wasn't much love on the day you came
I was feeling my way with a heart gone lame
Life was so cold right then, I thought I'd never love again
Though my dreams of romance blew away with the wind
Oh, my heart beats slow
Heart of mine, can we try it one more time?
Can you help me love a girl so free, so kind?
Lonely tears kept me waiting all these years
For the day I felt the joy of love inside
When my heart's alive
Believe me, I know that the truth sounds strange, oh yeah
How an innocent smile made my whole life change
You call it coincidence but I knew she was heaven sent
When I felt that my heart was beginning to mend
Now, my heart beats fast
Heart of mine, I think we made it just in time
We can't help but love a girl so free, so kind
Lonely tears kept me looking all those years
And today I felt the joy of love inside
Yes, my heart's alive
And growing stronger all the time
Heart of mine, I think we made it just in time
We can't help but love a girl so free, so kind
Lonely tears kept me looking all those years
And today I felt the joy of love inside
Heart of mine, I think we made it just in time
We can't help but love a girl so free, so kind
Lonely tears

Top Oak Ridge Boys, I'll Be Home For Christmas

Staring at the Christmas tree, I guess I couldn't sleep
The pretty lights hypnotize me and I begin to think
Seems like only yesterday that I was just a boy
Dreaming of a reindeer sleigh and Santa's bag of toys.
A lot of years have slipped on by; a lot of things have changed
But the magic of this special night somehow remains the same
I'm so thankful for my little ones: Oh, how I love them so
I know, God, how you must have felt, on that Christmas long ago.
You must have cried a million tears on that first Christmas Eve
You knew your one and only Son would someday die for me.
Staring out my window, I can see the Christmas star
It seems a little brighter now than it had been before
Help me be the kind of Dad that you would have me be
I guess I'll go on up to bed, thank you, Lord, for Christmas Eve.
I guess I'll go on up to bed, thank you, Lord, for Christmas Eve...

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Come On Rain

Last night they fired the cannon on the courthouse
lawn.
The whole town gathered at the square and we stayed
there till dawn
Telling tales and singing songs and trying to work it
out.
Rain prayers all saying Lord please help us through
this drought.
[CHORUS:]
Sun beats down from a White House sky
Still no rain, come on rain
Hens laying eggs with fire inside
Still no rain, come on rain
Dust devil carried our fields away
Still no rain, come on rain
Cow gone dry and the mule gone lame
And there’s still no rain,
Still no rain, still no rain, still no rain.
You can walk across the river on the bone dry mud
What little waters left there might as well be our
blood
After 80 years the Carter family just ran out of luck
We watch the dust cloud rising as they drive off in
their truck.
Sun beats down from a White House sky
Still no rain, come on rain
Hens laying eggs with fire inside
Still no rain, come on rain
Dust has carried our fields away
Still no rain, come on rain
Cows gone dry and the mule gone lame
And there’s still no rain,
No not a cloud in sight, ain’t that a shame
There’s thunder in the night but still no rain.
[CHORUS:]
Still no rain, come on rain.
Still no rain, come on rain.
Still no rain, come on rain.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, The Journey

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

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Where Can I Surrender

Ever one to run away, ever one to leave
Never one to hang around, never one to grieve.
If love turned into labour I would just resign
Working through the hard times never crossed my mind.
I’m guilty of entering and breaking hearts so dear
I’m guilty of unlawful flight and failing to appear
I’ve committed all the crimes of love, every felony
Now I have but one defence, to plead insanity.
O where can I surrender, I’m tired of being free
I want love to come and make a prisoner out of me
I’m a big offender, o love come capture me
Lock me in your velvet cell and throw away the key.
Events have come full circle now, I spend my nights alone
Where love was once so full and free, love has up and
gone
If God should just see fit to send sweet love my way
again
I’d die before I’d run away and be like I have been.
Oh where can I surrender, I’m tired of being free
I want love to come and make a prisoner out of me
I’m a big offender, o love come capture me
Lock me in your velvet cell and throw away the key.
Lock me in your velvet cell and throw away the key.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, It's Only Natural

I was there in the very next room
She thought I was down the hall
She was talking on the phone like women do
She didn’t know I could hear at all.
I heard her say to her very best friend
He doesn’t love me like I did back then
She said lately I’ve been so alone
So tomorrow morning I’ll be gone.
[CHORUS:]
Lucky moon stay out tonight, sunlight stay away
I’ve got one more chance to make things right
We’ve gotta make her want to stay
It’s up to me and you, lucky moon.
Make reservations at her favourite restaurant
Candle light and expensive wine
Try to let her know that she’s the one that I want
Gotta show her while I’ve still got time.
I can’t believe how stupid I’ve been
God knows I love her like I did back then
Better take to heart her warning
Somehow change her mind by morning.
[CHORUS:]
The first star I see tonight
I wish I may, I pray she might
Find a little magic in the moonlight.
Lucky moon stay out tonight, sunlight stay away
I’ve got one more chance to make things right
We’ve gotta make her want to stay
[CHORUS:]
Lucky moon.

Compared to my father I’m a college boy
Who never learned to saw a straight line.
Compared to my mother I’m a sinner
Who never saw the light.
But I read my bible every day,
I worked my hands in wood,
I ain’t always done my best but I’ve done the best I
could.
[CHORUS:]
Compared to you I am Appalachian south
When I hear those sweet words like peaches in your
mouth
I know that your roots run underneath this clay
To the place that makes a dreamer never wanna run away.
Where love is rare,
Love that’s true.
I ain’t never met a woman in my life
That compared to you.
Compared to my brother I’m a seeker
Who just wanted way too much.
Compared to my sister I’m a loner
Who is livin’ out of touch
And I’ve got nowhere else to be.
Would you like to take a walk
Or just sit here and let me hear you talk?
Compared to you I am Appalachian south
When I hear those sweet words like peaches in your
mouth
You talk with a drawl and I talk with a twang
But underneath it all we both mean the same thing.
Love is rare,
Love that’s true.
I ain’t never met a woman in my life
That compared to you.
Well now that you know all of that
Do you think that we could maybe close this gap?
[CHORUS:]

Top Oak Ridge Boys, A Gospel Journey

Seen a lot of trouble at my door
Never known a day when I ain't been poor
But I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end
Hard time is all I see
I've lost the ones that were dear to me
But I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end
I'm gonna live, I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end
I'm gonna live, I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end
When these poor bones are tired and old
I meet my savior, redeem my soul
'Cause I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end
I'm gonna live, I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end
I'm gonna live, I'm gonna live
I'm gonna live with Jesus in the end

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Heartbeat

I know how hard she’ll take it
When she finds out I can’t stay
So I don’t want to have to tell her
If there’s any other way.
Is there any new way out
Hearts are never broken.
Is there any new way out?
And no-one’s ever hurt in anger.
New way out, and harsh words are never spoken.
Is there any new way out?
Now it only stands to reason
With all the plans that miss
That someone might have stumbled
On a better way than this.
Is there any new way out
Where tears are never needed?
Is there any new way out
Where no-one ever needs surrender
New way out, neither side’s mistreated.
Is there any new way out?
Is there any new way out
Where hearts are never broken?
Is there any new way out
And no-one’s ever hurt in anger?
New way out, and harsh words are never spoken.
Is there any new way out?

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Monongahela

As I look around on another day
Sometimes I get so mad seeing the same old game
So many people caught in hopeless situations
I can’t make much sense there’s too much information.
Someone’s always trying to run someone else’s life
Woh, someone’s only trying to make it through the
night.
Putting one foot before the other
One step, then another
No map, no sign, taking one heartbeat at a time
It’s a long road in a short life
One foot’s on the other side
We look for love before we die
Taking one heartbeat at a time.
One thing I know, the only thing I’m sure of
There wouldn’t be much point without your love.
On this ship of fools, don’t know where we’re going
Most of what we’re told is not worth the knowing.
Someone’s always trying to sell a new version of the
truth
After all the words have gone, all I still believe is
you.
In putting one foot before the other
One step, then another
No map, no sign, taking one heartbeat at a time
It’s a long road in a short life
One foot’s on the other side
We look for love before we die
Taking one heartbeat at a time.
We’re putting one foot before the other
One step, then another
No map, no sign, taking one heartbeat at a time.
It’s a long road in a short life
One foot’s on the other side.
We look for love before we die
Taking one heartbeat at a time.
Woh wo woh no map, no sign, taking one heartbeat at a
time
One heartbeat at a time
We look for love before we die [fading]

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Still Holding On

When I was young I was sure I never could grow old
I was gonna Climb Mountains, sail the seas, go searchin
for gold
But those years come creeping in and the journey gets
so long
I don’t spring back like I used too - but I’m still
holding on
Holding on to what I believe in – be it right or wrong
Holding on to my dreams and my crazy schemes yes I’m
still holding on
Thought I’d found true love - I was sure it never could
I was blinded by the light in her eyes, couldn’t see
round the bend
Then one night she said good bye – I turned around she
was gone
Shook my head – shed my tears – but I’m still holding
Holding on to believing that love is a good thing –
even though she’s gone
Holding on to my dreams and my crazy schemes yes I’m
still holding on
Oh at night when the cold wind blows - and my collar is
pulled up high
I’m all alone in a god forsaken place - wondering why
A man only does what he must do and the journey must go
Brush myself off - laugh at the wind cause I’m still
holding on
Holding on to what I believe in – even though it’s
wrong
Holding on to my dreams and my crazy schemes yes I’m
still holding on
Holding on to what I believe in – be it right or wrong
Holding on to my dreams and my crazy schemes yes I’m

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Heaven On Earth

Traffic's bumper to bumper, cars and trucks wall to wall
Figured I could either go crazy or give her a call
So I give her a call
Nothing like the sound of her voice, oools me off, calms me down
Makes me wanna climb on the hood of my Chevy and shout
I do believe friends, I do believe I've found
Heaven on earth, heaven on earth
A home grown helping of heaven on earth
She looks that look, smiles that smile
I love the way she loves me while
She's holdin' my hand, kissin' my kiss
I guess the only question is
What did I ever do, look at me
What did I ever do to deserve
Heaven on earth?
Don't know how many million people or how many million souls
Are out there searchin' for their very own true blue love
To have and to hold.
In the meanwhile here I stand, livin' large, top of the world.
Got me a woman, when she walks my way I say
Here comes my girl, man, I say her comes my girl.
Heaven on earth, heaven on earth
A home grown helping of heaven on earth
She looks that look, smiles that smile
I love the way she loves me while
She's holdin' my hand, kissin' my kiss
I guess the only question is
What did I ever do, look at me
What did I ever do to deserve
Heaven on earth?
She's holdin' my hand, kissin' my kiss.
I guess the only question is
What did I ever do, look at me
What did I ever do to deserve
Heaven on earth.
Heaven on earth, heaven on earth
A home grown helping of heaven on earth
She looks that look, smiles that smile
I love the way she loves me while
She's holdin' my hand, kissin' my kiss
I guess the only question is
What did I ever do, look at me
What did I ever do to deserve

Woo Heaven on earth, heaven on earth
A home grown helping of heaven on earth.
My girl, that's her, heaven on earth.
Heaven on earth, heaven on earth
A home grown helping of heaven on earth
She looks that look, smiles that smile
Here she comes.
Woo Heaven on earth, heaven on earth

Top Oak Ridge Boys, I Love You So Much It Hurts

I love you so much, it hurts me
Darling, that's why I'm so blue
I'm so afraid to go to bed at night
Afraid of losing you
I love you so much, it hurts me
And there's nothing I can do
I want to hold you, my dear, forever and ever
I love you so much, it hurts me so
I love you so much, it hurts me
Whether near or far away
I want to hold you, my dear, forever and ever
I love you so much, it hurts me so

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Until You Get There

These two souls were up in heaven sitting and talking
When he got word it was his time to go
'Cause a couple down in Memphis wants a baby
And heaven chose him oh so long ago.
So he turned to her and he said, "I'm gonna miss you"
She said, "Don't you worry, I'll be down there soon.
There's a family in Tupelo praying for a daughter
And I'll be their answer in a year or two."
And he said, "How will I stand earth until you get there?
I won't know a soul, it'll be so strange.
Wherever I go, whatever I do, I'll be looking hard for you.
How will I stand earth until you get there?"
He was in his senior year down in Oxford
When a pretty junior girl walked into class
She said, "My name's Angel, you look so familiar"
He said, "maybe we met somewhere in the past."
When she said "I'm from Tupelo" something happened
Next thing you know he'd asked her to be his wife
He said "I've got a job waiting on me out in Dallas
When you graduate we'll start a brand new life.
But how will I stand Dallas till you get there?
I won't know a soul, it'll be so strange.
I'll be strong, I'll be true, I'll be waiting there for you
How will I stand Dallas till you get there?"
Sixty years and eight grandchildren later
He says "It looks like my time is getting close
You know I'm not afraid to meet our Maker
But I've loved you so long, I just don't know.
How will I stand heaven until you get there?
Without you by my side, it'll be so strange.
I'll hang around those pearly gates waiting for your pretty face.
How will I stand heaven until you get there?"

Top Oak Ridge Boys, In My Own Crazy Way

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Beautiful Bluebird

One mornin' when I was ridin' in my old pickup truck
A beautiful bluebird came flyin' down
My eyes caught the color as it lead me down the road
Dippin' and bobbin' in the sun
Beautiful bluebird, see how she flies
Looks like she's always goin' home
If heaven had a window where the sun came shinin' through
Like a beautiful bluebird I'd come flyin' back to you
Beautiful bluebird, see how she flies
Looks like she's always goin' home
I've never seen that blue before except in one place
And she's not here with me right now
And just like a lover I watched her fly away
And that's what I remember now
Beautiful bluebird, see how she flies
Looks like she's always goin' home
If heaven had a window where the sun came shinin' through
Like a beautiful bluebird I'd come flyin' back to you
Beautiful bluebird, see how she flies
Looks like she's always goin' home
If heaven had a window where the sun came shinin' through
Like a beautiful bluebird I'd come flyin' back to you

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Until You're Back In My Arms Again

Last night I woke from a dream
Or maybe I was just imagining
I found myself whispering
Come to me, wow, come to me.
I guess I just fell apart
When I couldn’t feel you there in the dark
I wanted you then.
Until you’re back in my arms again.
Until you’re back in my arms again.
Oh darling if you were here
One by one I’d dry each tear
Oh all that you would hear
Until you walk through that door
And love is here like it was before
These missing you nights won’t end.
Until you’re back in my arms again.
Please say we made a mistake
And we are sharing the same heartbreak
Darling then I can hardly wait
Until you walk through that door
And love is here like it was before
These missing you nights won’t win.
Until you’re back in my arms again.
Baby, come back baby.
Until you’re back in my arms again.
Baby, come back baby.
Until you’re back in my arms again.
Baby, come back baby.
Until you’re back in my arms again.
Baby, come back baby.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Callin' Baton Rouge

I spent last night in the arms
Of a girl in Louisiana
And though I'm out on the highway
My thoughts are still with her
A strange combination of a woman and a child
A strange situation stoppin' every twenty miles
Callin' Baton Rouge
A replay of last night's events
Roll through my mind
Except a scene or two
Erased by sweet red wine
And I see a truck stop sign ahead
So I change lanes
I need a couple cups of coffee
And a couple dollars change
Callin' Baton Rouge
Operator get me on through
I gotta send my love down to Baton Rouge
Hurry up won't you put her on the line
I want talk to that girl one more time.
Hello Samantha dear, I hope you're feelin' fine
It won't be long until I'm with you all the time
Until then I'll spend my money up right down to my last dime.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, New Orleans

(Bob DiPiero - Mark D. Sanders - Steve Seskin)
He was twenty-five she was twenty-eight
He was homegrown and she'd just pulled off the interstate
She bought a Dr. Pepper ten dollars worth of gas
She was obviously lost but too afraid to ask directions.
So he offered her a smile
And a stick of Beech-Nut gum
He said, ''Where you headed to girl,
Where you coming from?''
She said, ''New Orleans but that's another story,
New Orleans, that's another time,
That's another town, that's another life.''
First she stayed a day then she stayed a week
Couple of months later they were living on his parents street
He worked the station and she worked the store
And then they had a baby and then they had one more, little Jesse.
When she dropped the kids off at the mothers day out
All the ladies had their questions and knew not to ask about.
New Orleans but that's another story
New Orleans, that's another time,
That's another town, that's another life.
--- Instrumental ---
Wednesday night supper at the first Baptist Church
Stranger standing in the door way as they're passing out the dessert
He said, ''Go on pack your bags, I'm here to take you home
I'm going back to Louisiana and woman I ain't gonna go without you.''
There's a few defining moments in every persons life
When you know what you've done wrong and you know what you've done right
And before the congregation and her husband and her kids
She says, ''How dare you even speak to me after everything you did in.''
And New Orleans that's another story
New Orleans, that's another time,
That's another town, that's another life.
New Orleans that's another story
New Orleans, that's another time,

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Youre The One

Many's the time I have looked in the water
And had no reflection to show
Oh and many's the time I have stood at the crossroad
Not knowing which way to go
Many's the time someone laid close beside me
And I don't remember her name
They'll say that I'm just a smile and a moment
But that was before you came
You're the one in a million
You're the one, you're the one
You're the one in a million I see
You're the one in a million
You're the one, you're the one
You're the one in a million for me
Now all of the others were places to go to
But I had nowhere to sleep
Well I never made any promises to them
None they'd expected me to keep
You're the one in a million
You're the one, you're the one
You're the one in a million I see
You're the one in a million
You're the one, you're the one
You're the one in a million for me
Well you're the one in a million
You're the one, you're the one
You're the one in a million I see
You're the one in a million
You're the one, you're the one
You're the one in a million for me
You're the one in a million
You're the one, you're the one
You're the one in a million I see
You're the one in a million
You're the one, you're the one

The Oak Ridge Boys – Baby On Board
(Written By J.C. Crowley, Jeff Silbar)
Hey there mister in a Cadillac
Get off a my tail, get off a my back
Pull on round cause I ain't gonna drive
Any faster than 55.
I've got a sign in the window buddy, can't you read
Precious cargo sitting next to me.
CHORUS:
Ooooooo baby on board.
Everybody knows I take it kind a slow
With my baby on board.
I want the world to see
Who's riding next to me.
Rocking in my old Ford
With my baby on board.
It's hard enough to keep it on the road
She looks so good I'm about to lose control
God only knows the way she makes me feel
It's all I can do to keep my hands on the wheel.
With my baby won't you take a ride
I'll make sure to keep her satisfied.
CHORUS:
Riding high, rolling down the street
I've got an angel here in my front seat.
I've got a sign in the window buddy, can't you read
Precious cargo sitting next to me.
CHORUS:
I want the world to see
Whose riding next to me.
R r r rocking in my old Ford
With my baby on board.
I got my baby on board
I've got my baby, got my baby on board
I got my baby on board

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Farther Along

Tempted and tried we're oft made to wonder
Why it should be thus all the day long
While there are others living about us?
Never molested though in the wrong
When we see Jesus coming in glory
When He comes down from His home in the sky
Then we shall meet Him in that bright mansion
We'll understand it all by and by
Farther along we'll know all about it
Farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Love Without Mercy

The Oak Ridge Boys – Love Without Mercy
(Written By Don Pfrimmer, Mike Reid)
Woke up this morning and I knew I'd be late
Somehow it came as no surprise.
I saw the way she was looking at me
I saw no mercy in her eyes.
She gives me love without mercy
Her arms don't wanna let go
Love without mercy
Am I complaining? Mercy no.
I have no trouble sleeping at night
When I've got a problem on my mind
She gives me something precious and sweet
It solves that problem every time.
She gives me love without mercy
Her arms don't wanna let go
Love without mercy
Am I complaining? Mercy no.
When I feel like this world wants no part of me
She knows I need love and not sympathy
Love without mercy
Her heart don't wanna let go
Love without mercy
Am I complaining? Mercy, mercy, mercy, mercy,
Love without mercy
Her arms don't wanna let go
Love without mercy.
Am I complaining? Mercy no.

The Oak Ridge Boys – Old Time Lovin!
(Written By Gerry House)
Give me that old time lovin'
Like we was in love again-in
Yes that old time lovin'
Make it never ending
Give me that old time, good time lovin' we once knew
I want that old time love again with you.
Love was sweet, love was ripe
We'd rush home every night
Life was like a flower in full bloom
Little house, no one cared
There were good times to be shared
Even though the place just had three rooms
And there was hardly a whole night that we slept through
How I want that old time love again with you.
Give me that old time lovin'
Like we was in love again-in
Yes that old time lovin'
Make it never ending
Give me that old time, good time lovin' we once knew
I want that old time love again with you.
Times were hard but we had fun
When the old car wouldn't run
We thought of better things to do
Love was sweet, love was ripe
Let's bring it back tonight
Let's make that old time lovin' seem brand new
It's the only kind of lovin' that will do
How I want that old time love again with you.
Give me that old time lovin'
Like we was in love again-in
Yes that old time lovin'
Make it never ending
Give me that old time, good time lovin' we once knew
I want that old time love again with you.
Give me that old time lovin'
Like we was in love again-in
Yes that old time lovin'
Make it never ending
Give me that old time, good time lovin' we once knew

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Hold You In My Arms

When you came to me with your bad dreams and your fears
It was easy to see you'd been crying
Seems like everywhere you turn catastrophe it reigns
But who really profits from the dying
I could hold you in my arms, I could hold you forever
I could hold you in my arms, I could hold you forever
When you kissed my lips with my mouth so full of
questions
My worried mind that you quiet
Place your hands on my face, close my eyes and say
That love is a poor man's food, don't prophesize
I could hold you in my arms, I could hold you forever
I could hold you in my arms, I could hold you forever
So now we see how it is, this fist begets the spear
Weapons of war, symptoms of madness
Don't let your eyes refuse to see, don't let your ears
refuse to hear
Or you ain't never going to shake this sense of sadness
I could hold you in my arms, I could hold you forever

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Don't turn around

The Oak Ridge Boys – Don't Turn Around
(Written By Gary Burr)
Don't turn around, you could be tempted
You could change your mind again and stay.
Don't turn around, go through the door and walk away.
A word of advice – don't offer love to turn your world around.
More often than not it just helps to dull the pain
A toss of the dice, two losing lovers face up on the ground.
Time to move on and hanging on only brings those tears again.
Don't turn around, you could be tempted
You could change your mind again and stay
Don't turn around,
Go through the door and walk away.
Don't say you'll never be pulled in again
Sooner or later the damage will mend
And you'll be willing and able
And dying to fall in love.
And when you fall just think of me and when I let you go.
Someday I know every word I say tonight, will haunt me so
Don't turn around, you could be tempted
You could change your mind again and stay
Don't turn around,
Go through the door and walk away.
Don't turn around, you could be tempted
You could change your mind again and stay
Don't turn around,
Go through the door and walk away.
Don't turn around,

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Old Time Family Blugrass Band

We catch our memories wandering through the past from
time to time
As a mountain families’ music fills again inside our
mind
We dream about Euganean Hills and West Virginian land
And an old time family blue grass band.
Our God fearing mum and daddy raised us young ‘uns on a
song
By the banks where old new river gently sways and
rolled along
Where once upon a time there dwelled a close knit
mountain clan
An old time family blue grass band.
You never heard the like of melodies our family played
The guitar kept the rhythm as the fiddle sawed away
We recall a banjo ringing and a singing mandolin
In an old time family blue grass band.
Daddy slapped the upright, mamma strummed the other
part
We couldn’t read the music we just played it all by
heart
Lord hallowed songs just flowed across that fertile
mountain land
In an old time family blue grass band.
I see us sitting round the porch on starry summer
nights
I remember how the music made my world seem good and
right
When all the folks would raise their happy voices and
join in
With the old time family blue grass band.
You never heard the like of melodies our family played
The guitar kept the rhythm as the fiddle sawed away
We recall a banjo ringing and a singing mandolin
In an old time family blue grass band.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Whatever It Takes

Here we are after all we've been
Acting like total strangers again,
Making small talk to avoid anything too familiar.
No more words, their not enough
On their self, that can say as much as my heart
When it knows what it wants and it wants you.
I never should have taken you for granted
I won't make that same mistake again
Cause I'm ready now to give everything.
Darling I, I'll do whatever it takes
Break any walls in the way
That stands between you and me
I'll lay my heart on the line
I'll take the gamble this time
I'll do whatever it takes.
To get you back.
Let's cut through all of this red tape
Cast the doubts on your gorgeous face
To your eyes where I see there's a willing surrender.
Wow, wow, yer,
You can't hide the love you're already feeling
You're gonna have to let me in
There's no way I'm gonna lose you again.
I'll do whatever it takes,
I'll do whatever it takes, yer, wow,
I'll do whatever it takes, I'll do whatever it takes.
Wow, wow, yer, I never should have taken you for granted
I won't make that same mistake again
Cause I'm ready now to give everything.

Top Oak Ridge Boys, Fall

You say you never fell before
But this time you must have slipped, now you know how it feels.
You say you've always watched your step
But this time you must have tripped and went head over heels.
Now you say it, your so good and you want me to fall too
What a crazy thing to ask someone you love to do.
No I'd rather not fall.
Fall leads a river wrong
And it pulls apart a mountain and throws him over the edge.
At first it feels real good
But he's half way down when he sees there's real trouble ahead.
Above the ragged rocks below, he wonders was it worth the thrill.
Cause if the fall don't do him in then the sudden stop surely will.
No I'd rather not fall.
Just let me slip into this slow and easy
I've got my sight set on the long, long haul.
I believe we're headed for the same place baby
Let's change this pace to a slow crawl
I'll walk in standing tall, but I'd rather not fall.
Fall takes a shooting star
And it burns into a streak of disappearing light
And when the darkness falls
It turns away the sun and leaves us here in the night.
Steals the green from the trees
And paints them red and gold
Leaves them standing there in the winter air
With their branches bare and cold
No I'd rather not fall.
Just let me slip into this slow and easy
I've got my sight set on the long, long haul.
I believe we're headed for the same place baby
Let's change this pace to a slow crawl
I'll walk in standing tall, but I'd rather not fall.
No I'd rather not fall.
