Born To Lose
/c/conway+twitty/born+to+lose_20512011.html
Born to lose I've lived my life in vain Every dream has only brought me pain All my life I've always been so blue Born to lose and now I'm losin' you Born to lose it's been so hard to bear And when I've waited and I found that you're not there You've grown tired and now you say we're through Born to lose and now I'm losin' you Mhm all my life I've always been so blue Born to lose and now I'm I'm losin' you

Born To Sing The Blues
/c/conway+twitty/born+to+sing+the+blues_20822115.html
Born to sing the blues So tired an' worn, just singin' the blues Alone right from the start, I walked alone with blues in my heart. True love, (true love) I've never known (I've never known.) Everything (everything) I do is wrong. (all wrong.) But wrong, I've always been It's hard to go on when I never win. My life, (my life) my destiny, (my destiny.) Is loneliness (loneliness) and misery. (misery.) My life, I didn't choose. I guess, I was born to sing the blues. The lonesome blues, The weary blues

Bring It On Home To Your Woman
/c/conway+twitty/bring+it+on+home+to+your+woman_20512001.html
Oh, I've got a few good words to lay on everybody It's about a man too blind to understand The way I've treated my woman was a doggone pity But we know there's a weakness in every man. Just like a fool I went and left my baby crying A different kind of lovin' I had on my mind But everybody that I met was either cheatin' or lying When I get a good thing at home all the time. It's a lonely old feeling when you go from town to town When you can't get the woman at home off your mind I'm so tired of livin' in this new world that I've found Lord I hope I didn't waste too much time. I gotta put my pride aside and call my baby Gotta do it now can't wait another day I dialed a number and then I heard the voice of my lady It blew my mind when I heard her say. And she said (bring it on home) to your woman I've got a lot of lovin' a waitin' I hope you ain't forgot And she said (bring it on home) to your woman And when you get there you better Give me all the love you've got. And she said (bring it on home) to your woman I've got a lot of lovin' a waitin' I hope you ain't forgot And she said (bring it on home) to your woman And when you get there you better Give me all the love you've got...

Burn Georgia Burn
/c/conway+twitty/burn+georgia+burn_20512000.html
From a kiss to a small spark, in a heartbeat a raging fire With hungry flames burning higher, Georgia gave to her desire She said no for so long, to temptation 'she finally turned But when she gave, she gave it all, burn, Georgia burn. Burn, Georgia burn There's a fire in your soul Am I to blame for the flame? That's out of control. Now twenty-five and the first time makes a woman kinda wild When wall flowers turn to roses, they take on a certain style Now I ain't sayin' she was wrong, as she took a wayward turn But I remember the fire I started, burn, Georgia burn. Burn, Georgia burn There's a fire in your soul Am I to blame for the flame? That's out of control. Burn, Georgia burn There's a fire in your soul Am I to blame for the flame? That's out of control

But I Dropped It
/c/conway+twitty/but+i+dropped+it_20511999.html
I was a man with a world in his hand but I dropped it A world of dreams a world of plans but I dropped it It didn't lay there very long I turned around and it was gone He took my girl he put my world right in his pocket All she wanted was my love and understanding I didn't care enough I wasn't bear enough and she got lonely I was a man with a world in his hand but I dropped it A world of dreams a world of plans but I dropped it And good things don't just lay around neglected on the ground He took my girl he put my world right in his pocket He took my girl he put my world right in his pocket

By Heart
/c/conway+twitty/by+heart_20511998.html
Her face reflects as much of me as any mirror can And my image in her eyes is all I know of who I am But even as I see myself the lines begin to blur For who I am has long been tied and tangled up in her. And it isn't luck or chance she can read me at a glance Not just because she's clever and she's smart No, it's just by now she knows my heart By heart. It seems like it's been centuries since she and I began And both of us took all our chances on a single hand Though we took it day to day it's gone from year to year And no one ever close to me was ever half as near. And it isn't any trick or because her mind is quick She reaches my conclusions as I start No, it's just by now she knows my heart By heart. And amazing as it seems she brings magic to my dreams Not just because she's mastered magic's art No, it's just by now she knows my heart By heart. She knows my heart...

By The Time I Get To Phoenix
/c/conway+twitty/by+the+time+i+get+to+phoenix_20511997.html
By the time I get to Phoenix she'll be risin'. She'll find the note I left hangin' on her door. She'll laugh when she reads the part that says I'm leavin', 'Cause I've left that girl so many time before. By the time I make Albuquerque she'll be workin'. She'll prob'ly stop at lunch and give me a call. But she'll just hear that phone keep on ringin', Off the wall, that's all. By the time I make Oklahoma she'll be sleepin', She'll turn softly and call my name out low. And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her, 'Tho' time and time I've tried to tell her so. She just didn't know I would really go...

And you tell me that my memory Is just a dying ember not a flame? Well, you can call it what you want to It's still love by any other name.

Child With child, mother to be Carryin' a secret she know she can't keep Child With child, lying awake Thinking about all the hearts she will break. Will her friends all whisper when she passes by? Will there be shame or love in her daddy's eyes? She can run from her hometown but she can't run away From the new life inside her, growing each day. Child With child. Mother to be Carryin' a secret she knows she can't keep Child With child, lying awake Thinking about all the hearts she will break. She's just a child with child...

City Lights
/c/conway+twitty/city+lights_20511994.html
A bright array of city lights as far as I can see The great white way shines through the night for lonely guys like me The cabarets and honky-tonks their flashing signs invite A broken heart to lose itself in the glow of city lights. Lights that say forget her name in a glass of sherry wine Lights that offer other girls for empty hearts like mine They paint a pretty picture of a world that's gay and bright But it's just a mask for loneliness behind those city lights. The world was dark and God made stars to brighten up the night But God who put the stars above I don't believe made those lights For it's just a place for men to cry when things don't turn out right Just a place to run away and hide behind those city lights

Close Enough To Love
/c/conway+twitty/close+enough+to+love_20512007.html
Your eyes reflect the sadness Inside your broken heart You're afraid to love again so openly I'd gladly spend my lifetime Repairing every part Oh, that's close enough to love for me. And if you're hung up on the memory Of some other man When you close your eyes, if it's still him you see If I can't have you completely I'll cherish what I can Oh, that's close enough to love for me. Pickin' up the pieces Is hard to do alone And now your mind is set on stayin' free I just want to hold you Until the hurt is gone Oh, that's close enough to love for me. I just want to hold you Until the hurt is gone Oh, that's close enough to love for me...

Coal Miner's Daughter
/c/conway+twitty/coal+miners+daughter_20512006.html
Well, I was born a coal miner's daughter In a cabin on a hill in Butcher Holler We were poor, but we had love That's the one thing that daddy made sure of He shoveled coal to make a poor man's dollar. My daddy worked all night in the Vanleer coal mine All day long in the field a-hoin' corn Mommie rocked the babies at night And read the Bible by the coal-oil light And ever'thing would start all over come break of morn'. Daddy loved and raised eight kids on a miner's pay Mommie scrubbed our clothes on a washboard ever' day Why, I've seen her fingers bleed To complain there was no need She'd smile in Mommie's understanding way. In the summertime we didn't have shoes to wear But in the wintertime we'd all get a brand new pair From a mail order catalog Money made from sellin' a hog Daddy always managed to get the money somewhere. Yeah!, I'm proud to be a coal miner's daughter I remember well - the well where I drew water The work we done was hard At night we'd sleep 'cause we were tired I never thought of ever leaving Butcher Holler. Well, a lot of things have changed since way back then And it's so good to be back home again Not much left but the floor Nothing lives here anymore Except the mem'ries of a coal miner's daughter.

Country Bumpkin
/c/conway+twitty/country+bumpkin_20455820.html
(Don Wayne) He walked into the bar and parked his lanky frame upon a tall bar stool With a long soft southern drawl said I'll just have a glass of anything that's cool A barroom girl with wise and knowing eyes slowly looked me up and down And she said I wonder how on earth that country bumpkin found his way to town And she said hello country bumpkin how's the frost out on the pumpkin I've seen some sights but man you're somethin' Where'd you come from country bumpkin Just a short year later in a bed of joy filled tears and death like pain Into this wondrous world of many wonders another wonder came That same woman's face was wrapped up in a raptured look of love and tenderness As I marveled at the soft and warm and cuddly boy child feeding at her breast And she said hello country bumpkin fresh as frost out on the pumpkins I've seen some sights but babe you're somethin' mommy loves her country bumpkin Forty years of hard work later in a simple quiet and peaceful country place The heavy hand of time had not erased the raptured wonder from my woman's face She was lying on her death bed knowing fully well her race was nearly run Byt she softly smiled and looked into the sad eyes of her husband and her son And I said so long country bumpkins the frost is gone now from the pumpkins I've seem some sights and life's been somethin' see you later country bumpkins See you later country bumpkins

Even though you're finally free Don't it make you lonely, lonely like me? When you hear a sad song play Does a teardrop lay there in your eye, do you cry? When you're alone and the day is done Don't you wish we'd give it one more try Ah, just one more try?

There's that touchdown I caught Back when I thought I'd play for the cowboys someday There's you holding me in my faded fatigues Comin' home to the you. S. A. One after another All my sweet dreams and lovers Pass before my tear filled eyes Pictures of a fool Who was selfish and cruel Till the day he made you say goodbye.

One day you're happy the next day you're blue You feel like the whole world's comin' right down on you There ain't nothin' wrong but then there ain't nothin' right It's just the kind of thing that keeps you up all night Heavy tears in your eyes Lord don't they hurt you when you cry Heavy tears in your eyes And when they hit the ground don't they make a terrible sound Maybe she loves you and maybe it's a joke And maybe that fire was just a whole lot of smoke You don't feel warm but then you don't feel cold You're just gettin' weary you're just gettin' old Heavy tears in your eyes And your mind can't take this worry and your heart feels underfed Maybe you'll wake up tomorrow or maybe you'll just stay in bed Don't call the doctor and ask his advice Cause he's felt the same way himself once or twice And there ain't no cure for the tear in your eye You just gotta sit there you just gotta cry Heavy tears in your eyes

I'm surrounded by silence tormented by dreams Tortured by sweet words that you didn't mean It's the stillness it's the silence that I can hardly take For I can hear I can hear my heart break. Now these arms are mighty lonesome guess they're missing you And I have to admit it honey I miss you too I sit here in the silence half asleep half awake And I can hear I can hear my heart break. Empty days without number lonely nights I can't bear That old world's gone right on by me who's to know who's to care I keep listening for your footsteps little sound you used to make And I can hear I can hear my heart break. My heart break...

40 Years
/c/counting+crows/40+years_20033526.html
I was born in the jungle With the sickening smell of cinnamon in the air I was born in a white hole and I can't believe the colors here today Stalk on a circle Well I've never been blessed with elephant's memory Riding a red line nowhere If it takes 40 years for the gun to be paid for If it takes 40 years I'll put the money away If it takes 40 years to get the things that I need sir If it takes 40 years I'll walk the thunder and the rain I was born in a good home Where the rising cost of raising children Was not a factor and you can't believe the things it does to me I'm filled with the white noise Well I never did much of anything anyway Jump on a big train no where [Chorus:] I wanna buy me a good heart, and a conscience, And maybe raise some children I wanna get me a good wife, And a garden, garden, garden, garden. Wanna start me a new life with a six foot color television- Wanna start me a new life somewhere. I was born on a warm night On the right coast, of southeastern America. Dead on arrival, but you can't believe the things you hear today. I'll fly me a white plane over Water -over blue and green and land in the ocean somewhere. [Chorus:]

A Good Year For The Roses
/c/counting+crows/a+good+year+for+the+roses_20033527.html
I can hardly stand the sight of lipstick On the cigarettes there in the ashtray. Lying cold the way you left them, But at least your lips caressed them While you packed. Or the lip print o a half-filled cup Of coffee that you poured And didn't drink. But at least you thought you wanted it Which is so much more than I can say for me. Refrain It's been a good year for the roses Many blooms still linger there. The lawn could stand another mowing It's funny, I don't even care But as you turned and walked away As the door behind you closes The only thing I thought to say Was what a good year for the roses After three, four years of marriage It's the first time that you haven't made the bed I guess the reason we're not talking, Is there's so little left to say that we haven't said While a million thoughts go racing through my mind I guess I haven't said a word From the bedroom, the familiar sound Of our one baby's crying goes unheard

Does he keep you safe and warm? Does he tell you when you're sorry? Does he tell you when you're wrong? I've been watching you for hours It's been years since we were born We were perfect when we started I've been wondering where we've gone All your life is such a shame All your love is just a dream I dreamt I saw you walking up a hillside in the snow Casting shadows on the winter sky as you stood there counting crows One for sorrow Two for joy Three for girls and four for boys Five for silver Six for gold and Seven for a secret never to be told There's a bird that nests inside you Sleeping underneath your skin When you open up your wings to speak I wish you'd let me in All your life is such a shame All your love is just a dream Open up your eyes You can see the flames of your wasted life You should be ashamed You don't want to waste your life I walk along these hillsides in the summer 'neath the sunshine I am feathered by the moonlight falling down on me

I said come all you cowboys, All you blue-eyed baby boys, Oh come on all you dashing gentlemen Of summer. I'll wait for you, And Saturday's a memory, And Sunday comes to gather me, Into the arms of God and welcome me Cause I believe, I believe. And I know I could look at anyone but you now, I could fall into the eyes of anyone but you now, now, now, now So come on, come on, come on,oh come on through now, Come on, come on, come on oh come on through now. [Chorus] You look in me... and so please won't you look at me, Cause I am not seeing you Look at me, I want to make you, look at me, Or I am not anything!! Oh! anything... No!, no!, No, no. [Guitar Solo 2]

Dancing Days
/c/counting+crows/dancing+days_20513589.html
(Original by - Led Zeppelin) Dancing days are here again As the summer evenings grow I got my flower, I got my power I got a woman who knows. Chorus I said it's alright You know it's alright I guess it's all in my heart You'll be my only, my one and only Is that the way it should start? Crazy ways are evident In the way that you're wearing your clothes Suppin' boze is precedent As the evening starts to glow. Chorus I told your mamma I'd get you home But I didn't tell her I had no car I saw a lion he was standing alone With a tadpole in a jar. Chorus Dancing days are here again As the summer evening grows You are my flower, you are my power You are my woman who knows. Chorus

Einstein On The Beach
/c/counting+crows/einstein+on+the+beach_20033536.html
Albert's always sincere, he's a sensitive type His intentions are clear, he wanna be well-liked If everything is nothing, then are we anything? Is it better to be better than to be anything? And Albert's vision is blooming uncontrolled All his wings are slowly sinking The world begins to disappear The worst things come from inside here All the king's men reappear For an eggman, on and off the wall Who'll never be together again Einstein's down on the beach staring into the sand Cause everything he believes in is shattered What you fear in the night in the day comes to call anyway-ay We all get burned as: One more sun comes sliding down the sky One more shadow leans against the wall The world begins to disappear The worst things come from inside here And all the king's men reappear For an eggman, on and off the wall Who'll never be together again Albert's waiting in the sun On a field American For the cause of some inflated form of hit and run One more sun comes sliding down the sky One more shadow leans against the wall The world begins to disappear The worst things come from inside here And all the king's men reappear For an eggman, fallin' off the wall Will never be together again Albert's fallen on the sun Cracked his head wide open The world begins to disappear The worst things come from inside here And all the king's men reappear For an eggman, falling, falling The world begins to disappear The worst things come from inside here And all the king's men reappear For an eggman, fallin' off the wall Will never be together again No never be together again No no never never never again, uh huh What you fear in the night in the day comes to call anyway

Friend Of The Devil
/c/counting+crows/friend+of+the+devil_10071197.html
I lit out from Reno, I was trailed by twenty hounds Didn't get to sleep that night 'Till the morning came around. Set out runnin' but I take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight. Ran into the devil, babe, He loaned me twenty bills I spent the night in Utah In a cave up in the hills. Set out runnin' but I take my time, A friend of the devil is a friend of mine, If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight. I ran down to the levee But the devil caught me there He took my twenty dollar bill And vanished in the air. Set out runnin' but I take my time A friend of the devil is a friend of mine If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight. Got two reasons why I cry Away each lonely night, The first one's named Sweet Anne Marie, And she's my hearts delight. The second one is prison, baby, The sheriff's on my trail, And if he catches up with me, I'll spend my life in jail. Got a wife in Chino, babe, And one in Cherokee The first one says she's got my child, But it don't look like me. Set out runnin' but I take my time, A friend of the devil is a friend of mine, If I get home before daylight, I just might get some sleep tonight. You can borrow from the devil You can borrow from a friend The devil'll loan ya twenty But your friend got only ten

Have You Seen The Girl With Yellow Roses
/c/counting+crows/have+you+seen+the+girl+with+yellow+roses_20639881.html
She was only seventeen and I was twenty-one Chasing dreams we left Topeka following the sun We were kids still growing up with rainbows in our mind So off we went into the world not knowing what we'd find The first few days were filled with fun and laughing her and I We'd stop from place to place to try the good times on for size She always wore a yellow rose to show her love for me A yellow rose so everyone could see Have you seen the girl with yellow roses in her hair She's as pretty as could be She always wears a yellow rose so everyone can see She always wears a yellow rose for me Now the days have past so quickly and the living got so rough Suddenly we found we couldn't live just on our love Just two kids alone with thought of Kansas in our mind Thinking of the families loving arms we left behind Of each new day I found that we grew more and more apart Though she tried to cling to me with love still in her heart Then one day I hurt her like a fool I made her cry I noticed that the yellow rose had died Have you seen the girl with yellow roses in her hair Help me find her won't you please She always wore a yellow rose so everyone could see She always wore a yellow rose for me

If We Are The Body

It's crowded in worship today As she slips in trying to fade into the faces The girls' teasing laughter is carying farther than they know Farther than they know But if we are the body Why aren't His arms reaching Why aren't His hands healing Why aren't His words teaching And if we are the body Why aren't His feet going Why is His love not showing them there is a way There is a way A traveler is far away from home He sheds his coat and quietly sinks into the back row The weight of their judgemental glances tells him that his chances Are better out on the road But if we are the body Why aren't His arms reaching Why aren't His hands healing Why aren't His words teaching And if we are the body Why aren't His feet going Why is His love not showing them there is a way Jesus paid much to high a price for us to pick and choose who should come And we are the body of Christ If we are the body Why aren't His arms reaching Why aren't His hands healing Why aren't His words teaching And if we are the body Why aren't His feet going Why is His love not showing them there is a way If we are the body Why aren't His arms reaching Why aren't His hands healing Why aren't His word teaching And if we are the body Why aren't His feet going Why is His love not showing them there is a way Jesus is the way

She comes to me at night when I'm sleeping She comes to me when I'm alone She comes to me She holds my head when I'm crying She comes to me She shuts my eyes She brings me home But I'm not sleeping anymore She tells me when you look at me She tells me when you're lying She tells me when you talk about me She lays me on the floor She tells me when you're whispering She lies beside me naked She tells me when you laugh at me and she locks all the doors But I'm not sleeping anymore 1-2-3-4-5-6-7a.m. All alone again But I've been through all this shit before Spend my nights in self defense Cry about my innocence But I ain't all that innocent anymore I see her on the TV I see her in the movies I see her in these animals that dance inside my head I'll follow you down baby Down into this valley I'll follow you down baby But I won't come up again But I'm not sleeping anymore

Insignificant
/c/counting+crows/insignificant_20730769.html
Can you see me up on a building From down on the pavement Or out in the crowd? Can you see me, in the glare of the lamp post? Cause I am walking a tightrope Into the moon. [Chorus] I don't want feel so different, But I don't want to be insignificant And I don't how to see the same things different now. Oh, can you see me? I am one in a million Yeah, I'm Icarus falling, out of the sun. She sees me falling, a line of spotlights and chalk lines. Through night black as a bedroom And white as a lie. [Chorus] Diving through the dark, while the night turns blue And you wear your intentions, as I wear my intentions So clear. [Guitar Bridge] If you see me, wading through water Or come drowning a river Right in front of the world Hey you can wash your face and hands in the stream of my anger Cause it's as bright as white paper As dark as a girl [Chorus: x2]
