Ghosts Riders In The Sky

An old cowpoke went ridin' out one dark and windy day,
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw
Come rushin' through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw.

Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
Ghost riders in the sky

Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath you could feel
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
He saw the riders coming hard... and he heard their mournful cry

Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
Ghost riders in the sky

Their face is gaunt their eyes were blurred their shirts all soaked
with sweat
They're ridin' hard to catch that herd but they 'aint caught 'em yet
'cause they've got to ride forever in the range up in the sky
On horses snorting fire as they ride hard hear them cry

Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
Ghost riders in the sky

The riders leaned on by him he heard one call his name
If you want to save your soul from hell a riding on our range
Then cow-boy change your ways today or with us you will ride
Tryin' to catch this devil herd.... a-cross these endless
skies.

Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky....

I Believe

I believe for every drop of rain that falls
A flower grows,
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night
A candle glows,
I believe for everyone who goes astray,
Someone will come to show the way,
I believe, I believe

I believe above the storm a smallest prayer
Will still be heard,
I believe that someone in the great somewhere
Hears every word,
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry,
Or touch a leaf, r see the sky,
Then I know why,
I believe

Every time I hear a newborn baby cry,
Or touch a leaf, r see the sky,
Then I know why,
I believe...

I Couldnt Say Goodbye

I watch you as you're sleeping
As I'm standing at the door
I don't want to let you go
But I can't hold on anymore

I just can't find the strength
To say I'm leaving you
It's over now, it's over now
And there's nothing I can do

I couldn't say goodbye
Couldn't stand the pain
Couldn't watch you cry
Knowing that your heart would break

So I let you sleep
Till the morning light
When you wake up and you read the note I write
Telling you that I
I couldn't say goodbye

I'm walking down this rainy street
Thinking you're awake by now
As you read my letter
And the tears fall from your eyes

Just know I tried to make it work
It just wasn't meant to be
I needed you, I needed you
But not the way you needed me

I couldn't say goodbye
Couldn't stand the pain
Couldn't watch you cry
Knowing that your heart would break

So I let you sleep
Till the morning light
When you wake up and you read the note I write
Telling you that I
I couldn't say goodbye

I didn't mean to hurt you
I didn't want to make you cry
It's over now, yes it's over now
I just couldn't say goodbye

I couldn't say goodbye
Couldn't stand the pain
Couldn't watch you cry
Knowing that your heart would break

So I let you sleep
Till the morning light
When you wake up and you read the note I write
Telling you that I
I couldn't say goodbye

I Wake Up Crying

I wake up crying
After tossin' and turnin'
And a-yearnin' the whole night long
Pretty baby since you went away
I haven't spent a happy day

I wake up crying
After sobbin' and sighin'
And a-wonderin' just what went wrong
Pretty baby I was good to you
Why'd you go and make me blue

I need your arms to hold me tight
I need your sweet lips to kiss me goodnight
I'm so unhappy on my own
Don't don't leave me sad and lonely

I wake up crying
After tossin' and turnin'
And a-yearnin' the whole night long
Pretty baby please come back to me
Save me from this mesery
Oh baby won'tcha save me from this mesery
Please baby won'tcha save me from this mesery...

I Wanna Get Back With You

I was a fool to say the things I said,
I just lost my head.
Made you cry, made you go,
I didn't mean to be so cold.
I had no right mistreating you that way
And oh, how could I know the price I'd pay?

Sorry I ever caused you pain.
Sorry I, sorry I said those hurtful things.
But baby, all that really matters now is

I wanna get back with you.
Just give me one more try.
I wanna get back with you.
Just stop this hurt inside.
I gotta get back with you.

I been walking down these cold and lonely streets.
I been losing sleep
Had to prove I was strong but every night,
Every night just proved me wrong.
Had to think I had heaven right here in my hand
And oh, just let it slip away like sand.

Oh, gimme one chance to make it right.
One more chance, one more chance back in your light.
'Cause baby, all that really matters now is

I wanna get back with you.
Hold me just like before.
I wanna get back with you.
Taking me somewhere warm.
I gotta get back with you.

Baby, I'd give my soul
Just to hold one more time,
Just to look in your eyes.
'Cause right now I'm half alive
No matter what I do
There's no living without you,
can't you see baby?

I wanna get back with you.
Just give me one more try.
I wanna get back with you.
Just stop this hurt inside.
I gotta get back with you.
Hold me just like before.
Taking me somewhere warm.
I wanna get back with you, babe.
I wanna get back with you, baby.
I wanna get back!
I gotta get back with you!
Oh, take me back!

My Elusive Dreams

You followed me to Texas, you followed me to Utah,
We didn't find it there so we moved on.
Then you went with me to A-la-bam',
Things looked good in Birmingham,
We didn't find it there so we moved on.
I know you're tired of fol-low-ing
My elusive dreams and schemes
For they're only fleeting things,
My elusive dreams...

You had my child in Memphis then I heard of work in Nashville,
But we didn't find it there so we moved on.
To a small farm in Nebraska, to a gold mine in Alaska,
We didn't find it there so we moved on.
I know you're tired of fol-low-ing
My elusive dreams and schemes
For they're only fleeting things,
My elusive dreams...

Now we've left A-las-ka because thewas no gold mine,
But this time only two of us moved on.
And now all we have is each other and a little memory
To cling to and still you won't let me go on alone.
I know you're tired of following
My elusive dreams and schemes
For they're only fleeting things,
My elusive dreams...

Once Upon A Time

Once upon a time there was an Eden,
woa
Once upon a time Adam and Eve,
A ...fell in love
Um...they fell in love
Like you and I
Like you and I

Once upon a time there was Delilah,
um
Once upon a time the devil and she
A...tempted man
Oh yes...a tempted man.
A..just like you
Are tempting me

Once upon a time
I knew just what to do
But that was long before
I met you, yes,
Once upon a time
I knew just what to do
But now I've fallen in love
Oh yes, I've fallen in love with you...

Satisfaction

I can't get no - satisfaction
I can't get no - satisfaction
'Cause I try', and I try
Yes I try, I try
I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction

When i'm cruisin' in my car
And the man comes on the radio
He's tellin' me more and more
About some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination
And I can 't get no satisfaction
Oh, no, no, no
Hey, hey, hev
Ooh baby tell me what I say

Oh well when I'm watching my TV
And this man comes on and tells me
What drink would be good for me
But he can't be a man, cause' he doesn't smoke
The same cigars as me
And I can't get no satisfaction
No, no, no
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Tell me what I say

When I'm ridin' round the world
And I'm doin' this and I'm signin' that
And I'm tryin' to meet some girl
Who tells me baby, baby come back maybe next week
Can't you see I'm on a losing streak
I can't get no satisfaction
Oh, no, no, no,
Hey, hey, hey
Baby tell me what i say

Come here baby
What do ya mean
You don't know what will satisfy me
Yes you do
I've been all around the world
Looking for some girl
And I can't get no satisfaction
and I've got to have some satisfaction...

The Rose

My love said to me,
"A hero you'll be,
If you bring me the rose of love."
So, today I must go where the wide riv-ers flow
Down from the hills above.
From beginning to end,
Who will guide me, my friend,
For the difficult task that she chose?
Will the sun and the rain,
From whose bosom I came,
Show me the way to The Rose?
For my true love I yearn,
But I'll never, ever return,
Till I find where that red lady grows.
When i find her, I'll sing,
And the mission bells will ring
the news that I've captured The Rose...

Try To Remember

Try to remember the kind of September
when life was slow and oh, so mellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
when grass was green and grain was yellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
when you were a tender and callow fellow,
Try to remember and if you remember the follow...

Try to remember when life was so tender
that no one wept except the willow.
Try to remember when life was so tender that
dreams were kept beside your pillow.
Try to remember when life was so tender that
love was an ember about to billow.
Try to remember and if you remember then follow...

Deep in December it's nice to remember
altho you know the snow will follow.
Deep in December it's nice to remember
without the hurt the heart is hollow.
Deep in December it's nice to remember
the fire of September that made us mellow.
Deep in December our hearts should remember and follow...
