Some Of These Days

Some of these days, you'll miss your honey,
Some of these days, you'll feel so lonely.
You'll miss my hugging, you'll miss my kisses
You'll miss me, Honey, when you go away.
I feel so lonely just for you only,
For you know, Honey, you've had your way.
And when you leave me, I know you'll grieve me;
You'll miss your little honey some of these days.

Lifeline

Throw me a lifeline
I'm drifting out to sea
Throw me a lifeline
Won't someone please rescue me
Loneliness is an ocean
Love is the shore
I'm in deep water
Cause I've fallen overboard
So throw me a lifeline
Before I sink beneath the sea
Don't you hear me calling
I'm sending out my SOS
Don't you hear me calling
Can you remedy my distress
I'm calling out to someone
To help me make it through
It won't take much to answer
That someone might be you
Don't you hear me calling
Calling out my SOS
Throw me a lifeline
Can't you see the state I'm in?
Throw me a lifeline
Not much longer can I swim.
In these lonely waters, I'm going down
Two times already, and the third time I might drown
Throw me a lifeline
You know it's time to reel me in.

Mistakes You Never Made
03:12
|

Oh I wish that I were young again
Foot loose and fancy free
To be somewhere that I've never been
With no ties binding me
I think I'd do things differently
I'd be much smarter now
Do all the things I never did
Cause I did not know how
(Chorus)
But time will not reverse itself
Nor let you start again
And second chances seldom come
No changing what has been
There's no sense in regretting
Time does not do trades
And those old mistakes were not as bad
As the ones you never made.
There was a time when I was young
And smart as I could be
I went off to see the wizards
At the university
I found that I was not so smart
It came as quite a blow
What I learned most clearly
Was how much I didn't know.
So when you look upon the past
And choices that seem wrong
Though you may have fallen on your face
You managed to move on
Things could have been much worse you know
What really did you lose?
Those old mistakes were nothing but
The way you've paid your dues.

A Bit Further On
03:51
|

|
Well I started in Memphis
Then moved on to Mobile
I blew through Tallahassee
Just lookin for something to feel
There was a gal in Savannah
Who left me sad and alone
So I landed in Charlotte
But I don't call it home
(Chorus)
I want to sail on the ocean
I want to turn on the breeze
I want to be that young man
On the flying trapeze
But it's too late for yearning
And too soon to be done
So I guess I'll keep rolling
Just a bit further on.
There's lots of music in Nashville
But so many like me
I'd just get lost in the shuffle
So I guess I'll just let Nashville be
Maybe try Cincinatti
While the weather's still nice
But I know before too long
It will turn into ice.

Make me a pallet on your floor
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make it soft, make it low, so your good gal won't ever know
Make me a pallet on your floor.
Come all you good time friends of mine,
Come all you good time friends of mine.
When I had ten dollars, you treated me so fine
Where were you when I only had a dime.
Come on and make me a pallet on your floor
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make it soft, make it low, so your good gal won't ever know
Make me a pallet on your floor.
I'd be more than satisfied,
If I could catch one train to ride
But if I reach Atlanta with no place to go,
Please make me a pallet on your floor
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make it soft, make it low, so your good gal won't ever know
Make me a pallet on your floor.
Weary blues everywhere I see
Weary in blues everywhere I see
Blues all aroud me, honey everywhere I see
No one ever had the blues like me
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make me a pallet on your floor
Make it soft, make it low, so your good gal won't ever know
Make me a pallet on your floor.

Lonely Weekend Blues
04:11
|
|||
|
The sun's gone down in the western sky
Moon's putting on its show
Got a warm coat and some brand new shoes
But I've got no place to go
So I ordered up a pizza
I've got half a case of beer
Sure would like to share it
But nobody else is here.
(chorus)
Saturday night and I'm drinking alone
Watching the evening news
Feeling the weight of my bad choices
Got the lonely weekend blues.
Guess I could go out all by myself
Go looking for some fun
Maybe listen to some local band
Just to beat this being alone
But watching other folks dancing
Or sitting 'round laughing out loud
When you don't know a soul to talk to
It just feels worse being in a crowd.
So I guess I'll see what's on the tube
Pop open another brew
Or maybe pick up my old guitar
Just gotta find something to do
Funny how I can't wait all week
For Friday to roll around
But by Saturday night I'm feeling empty
Cause the blues is all I've found.

There's a feeling going 'round that somethings wrong
They say that something mighty strange is goin' on
And when people get afraid it won't be long
Before there's trouble
Try to save what you can before it's gone
This earth is getting warmer so they say
Another species goes extinct most every day
As storms like no ones ever seen are on the way
Best find your shelter
Rich folks prosper while the rest of us must pay.
There's a man lurking somewhere with a gun
Wants to shoot some people down just for the fun
He don't care if you should fight or try to run
Don't make no difference
He just wants to die, but not alone
People asking how the hell did we get here
Politicians get their power from the fear
Preachers swearing that the end is coming near
God's retribution
But your donations buy salvation don't you fear
Some say these times are surely going to pass
And a brighter day will reappear at last
It's the darkness before dawn - just hold fast
Lokk for better days
And hope that soon the danger will be passsed.

Once I lived the life of a millionaire,
Spent all my money, didn't have a care.
Took all my friends out for a real good time,
Bought bootleg liquor, champagne and wine.
Then I began to fall so low,
Lost all my good friends, had nowhere to go.
I get my hands on a dollar again,
I'm gonna hang on to it till that eagle grins.
'Cause nobody knows you
When you're down and out.
In your pocket, not one penny,
And as for friends, you ain't got any.
When you finally get back on your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend.
Said it's mighty strange, without a doubt,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.

Circlin'
03:42

Sun always goes down in the west
But it comes up from the east next day
How it gets back I'm not certain
Always seems to find its way
They say each day's a new beginning
A chance to start out fresh again
But I just seem to run in circles
No beginning and no end
They tell me once I was a child
Lord that seems so long ago
I just can't seem to remember
But there are two things that I know
All these days are getting shorter
Now that winter's coming on
And that old sun's forever circling
And it will be when I'm gone
I try to find myself a straight path
Where a straight path can be found
Crazy dog can't catch his own tail
I get myself all turned around
So here I go again just circling
Where I'm going is where I've been
Just can't seem to get my head straight
All it wants to do is spin
From the past until tomorrow
From this place to further on
That old sun's forever circling
And it will be when I'm gone

Forever June
03:16
|

Well I've been hanging 'round
I couldn't say just why
There's not much more that's here for me to see
The days have all turned gray
Cold rain upon my skin
All these dark clouds hangin over me
I know that I had best be on my way
Searching for a warm and sunny day
Somewhere forever June
Where beneath a silver moon
Stars dance to the music that we play.
Now I couldn't say for sure
Just where that place might be
I've heard that it's so very far away
But I know I've still got time
And travelling I don't mind
Some nice folks I can meet along the way
So I think it must be time to travel on
Seems the road just might be going my way
Somewhere forever June
Where beneath a silver moon
Stars dance to the music that we play.
So now the time has come
To bid my friends adieu
I'll not forget the folks I've come to know
Fond memories I'll keep
Through the coming years
I hope they'll understand why I must go
I hear the highway calling out my name
Maybe I will find it some sweet day
Somewhere forever June
Where beneath a silver moon
Stars dance to the music that we play.
