Get down boys, go back home
Back to the girl you love
Treat her right, never wrong
How mountain girls can love
Riding the night in the high cold winds
On the trail of the old lonesome pine
Thinking of you, feeling so blue
Wondering why you left me behind
Get down boys, go back home
Back to the girl you love
Treat her right, never wrong
How mountain girls can love
Remember the night we strolled down the lane
Our hearts were gay and happy then
You whispered to me as I held your close
You hoped this night would never end
Get down boys, go back home
Back to the girl you love
Treat her right, never wrong
How mountain girls can love

Trains I missed
03:44
|

|
Here's to the trains I missed
The loves I lost
The bridges I burned
The rivers I never crossed
Here's to the call I didn't hear
The signs I didn't heed
The roads I didn't take
The maps that I just couldn't read
It's a big old world but I've found my way
And the h*** and the hurt lead me straight to it
Here's to the trains I missed
I've been a clown, I've been a fool
And i pushed on every chance
I searched far and wide trying to crawl out of God's hands
There were stones i didn't throw
And hearts i didn't break
And a little hope that i held onto with each silver s***ning thread of faith
It's a big old world but I've found my way
And the h*** and the hurt lead me straight to it
Here's to the trains I missed…

Wait a minute

Wait a minute, did I hear you say
You're goin' far away again?
Try to change it, I can't take
The lonely nights without your love
Do you want the road
To get the music done and move along?
What good does it do
Play your songs for her and hear her say?
Wait a minute, did I hear you say
You're goin' far away again?
Try to change it, I can't take
The lonely nights without your love
Rollin' along and life's been
Good to you, but even so
She comes to you, late at night's
The time you hear her say once again
Wait a minute, did I hear you say
You're goin' far away again?
Try to change it, I can't take
The lonely nights without your love
Waitin' for you thirty days
And nights without a rest
I got to hold on,…

Can’t you hear the whistle of my big spike hammer
Lord it’s busting my side
I’ve done all I can do to keep that woman happy
Still she’s not satisfied
Hey hey Della Mae
Why do you treat me this way
Hey hey Della Mae
I’ll get even some day
I’m the best hammer swinger on this big section gang
Big Bill Johnson is my name
Lord this hammer that I swing for a dollar and a half a day
I’ll all for my Della Mae
Now I’ve been lots of places, not much I ain’t done
There’s still alot of things I’d like to see
Lord this hammer that I swing or the woman that I love
Yes, one’s gonna be the death of me

Nellie Kane

As a young man I went riding out on the western plain
In the state of North Dakota I met my Nellie Kane
I met my Nellie Kane
She was living in a lonely cabin with a son by another man
Five years she had waited for him as long as a woman can
As long as a woman can
I don’t know what changed my mind
‘Til then I was the rambling kind
The kind of love I can’t explain
That I had for Nellie Kane
She hired me on to work that day to help her till the land
In the afternoon we planted seeds in the evening we held hands
In the evening we held hands
Her blue eyes told me everything a man could want to know
It was then I realized that I would never go
That I would never go
Now many years have gone by and her son has grown up tall
I became a father to him and she became my all
She became my all
I don’t know what changed my mind
‘Til then I was the rambling kind
The kind of love I can’t explain
That I had for Nellie Kane

My latest sun is sinking fast
My race is nearly run
My longest trials now are past
My triumph has begun
Oh come angel band
Come and around me stand
Oh Bear me away on your snow white wings
To my immortal home
Oh bear me away on you snow white wings
To my immortal home
Oh bear my longing Heart to him
Who bled and died for me
Whose blood now cleanses from all sin
And gives me victory
Oh come angel band
Come and around me stand
Bear me away on your snow white wings
To my immortal home
Bear me away on you snow white wings
To my immortal home

Blue collar dreams
03:01

With an aching back
Blood, tears, and sweat
Blue collar dreams
Keep me in debt
Can't tell you why
I don't leave this old
One horse town behind
My good intentions withered on the vine
I can't save a dime
I try to walk that straight and narrow line
Oh I need a small vacation
But I ain't got 'nuff time
Bright and early I'll be back to the grind
With an aching back
Blood, tears, and sweat
Blue collar dreams
Keep me in debt
Can't tell you why
I don't leave this old
One horse town behind
My good intentions withered on the vine
Paycheck to paycheck
Ain't the way things outta be
Hard times they seem to never end
Yesterday the groceries
Today I'll pay the rent
By Friday all my money will be spent
With an aching back
Blood, tears, and sweat
Blue collar dreams
Keep me in debt
Can't tell you why
I don't leave this old
One horse town behind
My good intentions withered on the vine
With an aching back
Blood, tears, and sweat
Blue collar dreams
Keep me in debt
Can't tell you why
I don't leave this old
One horse town behind
My good intentions withered on the vine
I'll kick the can a little further down the line
My good intentions withered on the vine

Heartbreak game
02:57
|

|
It's not as if I didn't know better, her innocent look and a scented letter
It looked like love but it felt like a memory
Sometimes a young girl wants a ticket out
And a gambler on a roll looks good no doubt
But if you think you're winnin' you don't even know the game you're in
Chorus:
It's read Â'em and weep, it's a sad old song
You take your chances just the same
Don't it serve me right how it all went wrong
Bettin' on a hard luck heart in a heartbreak game
Bettin' on a hard luck heart in a heartbreak game
It's not as if she never loved me, but times get rough and the rooms get lonely
And a girl learns fast that there's a lot of different things called love
I got burned bad but I'm still in this game
It's a dirty deal but nobody's to blame
The odds are good lady luck will be back again
Chorus
Bridge:
Sometimes you gotta bet your aces low
Sometimes you gotta let a good hand go
Chorus 2x

Daniel prayed
02:49
|

I read about a man one day
He wasted not his time away
He prayed to God
Every morning, noon, and night
He cared not for the things avail
But trusted one who never fails
Oh, Daniel prayed
Each morning, noon, and night
Oh, Daniel served his living God
While upon the earth he trod
He prayed to God each morning, noon, and night
He cared not for the king's decrees
But trusted God to set him free
Oh, Daniel prayed every morning, noon, and night
They locked him in the lions' den
Because he could not honor men
But he prayed to God
Every morning, noon, and night
The jaws were locked; it made him shout
And God soon brought him safely out
Oh, Daniel prayed
Every morning, noon, and night
Oh, Daniel served his living God
While upon the earth he trod
He prayed to God each morning, noon, and night
He cared not for the king's decrees
But trusted God to set him free
Oh, Daniel prayed every morning, noon, and night
Now, brother, let us watch and pray
Like Daniel did from day to day
He prayed to God
Every morning, noon, and night
We, too, can gladly dare and do
And pray to God he'll see us through
Oh, Daniel prayed
Every morning, noon, and night
Oh, Daniel served his living God
While upon the earth he trod
He prayed to God each morning, noon, and night
He cared not for the king's decrees
But trusted God to set him free
Oh, Daniel prayed every morning, noon, and night

Hallelujia I'm ready

Hallelujah, I'm ready
I can hear the voices singing soft and low
Hallelujah, I'm ready, hallelujah I'm ready to go.
In the darkness of night, not a star was in sight
On the highway that leads down below
But Jesus came in and saved us all from sin
Hallelujah, I'm ready to go.
Hallelujah, I'm ready
I can hear the voices singing soft and low
Hallelujah, I'm ready, hallelujah I'm ready to go.
Sinners don't wait until it's too late
He's a wonderful savior you know
Well, I fell on my knees when he answered my plea's
Hallelujah, I'm ready to go.
Hallelujah, I'm ready
I can hear the voices singing soft and low
Hallelujah, I'm ready, hallelujah I'm ready to go.
Hallelujah, I'm ready to go.
Hallelujah, I'm ready to go.
Hallelujah, I'm ready to go
