Ain't Gonna Leave

Ain't never gonna leave
I'll stay right here
No one gonna change my mind
Let that be clear
Ain't gonna go
Ain't gonna flee
Ain't gonna leave
Things might get tough
Might knock me down
But I'll get right back up again
To stand on this ground
Things might get bad
Things might get down
Things might get rough
Try to throw me down
Gonna get back up
Nothing gonna keep me there
In that messy muck
Try to throw me down
Try to get me stuck
Gonna get back up

Write on my heart
Write on my mind
Help me to be the way you designed
Fill me with love
Fill me with peace
Pour out of me as your hands and your feet
Draw me in close
Draw me in tight
Write on my mind what brings you delight
I'll love with my heart
I'll love with my soul
I'll love with my mind and my strength and my time and all the length of my days
You marked out my years
You drew up my plans
I was born on the day that you made so I could be in your hands
You let me be free
You let me to choose
On my own I'm alone I'd be lost I need help to get through

Henry never worked inside
At an office job
Henry grew up north of town
Feeding grain to hogs
Henry never found a wife
Well that's not really true
He saw her once at a tractor show
Back in 1992
Henry never spoke with her
He figured he might one day
Henry thought about it every fall
While he was out there bailing hay
Henry was a farmer who worked out in the sun
He had so many chores to do that he’d never, ever, ever get them done
Henry never washed his truck
He liked it’s full bench seat
Always thought that if his wife was there
Now, that’d be somethin really sweet
Henry never got her name
Or asked what it is
Mighta been Sue, Mary, or Jo
Even Jennifer or Liz
Henry was a young man who had a life to live
He had so many chores to do but he had no time to give
Henry was a strong man who worked out in the rain
He had so many chores to do he never ever ever felt the pain
Henry was an old man who worked his life away
He had so many chores to do he missed his wife each and every day.
Henry never missed a day
Working on the farm
He wondered if his wife would ever
Be there in his arm

I'm the Only One
03:44
|

|
I’m the only one
Who’s been in the same place as me
Ain’t nobody else
Using these eyes to see
I’m the only one
Been in these shoes of mine
Ain’t nobody else
Who’s walked them down the line
I’m the only one
Who’s as me as I can be
Ain’t nobody else
who feels just like me
Now I”m the only one
Who’s me gettin outta bed
Ain’t nobody else
got my face upon their head
You just might be fine
That you’re the only you
Or maybe you’d get lonely
And wish that you were two
I feel so alone
‘Cause I’m the only me
If there were a couple more
At least then I’d be three
That’s some crazy talk
And we should let it be
How ‘bout you be you,
And me be me
You be you
and me be me
Together we won’t be lonely
And you can be in the same place as me

Time Thief
03:05
|

|
I’ll tell you what I know about the thief of time
He’ll slip right in and blow your mind
Something goes wrong that’ll make you wait
Next thing you know you’ll turn 88
Time thief comes when you’re driving along
Doin’ 55 but that’s where you’re wrong
Can’t pass the car that’s goin’ slow
Every chance you get it’s no, no, no
Time thief will come when you least expect
Quick grocery stop and the day is wrecked
Tried to pick the line that would let you move
Price check got you stuck in a groove
TIme thief’s comin’ for you
Time thief’s comin’ for you
Time thief’s there when you browse online
You think it’s 5 minutes and you’re doin’ fine
After 10 more you’re not having fun
Half and hour later and you still ain’t done
TIme thief will come with the service call
You have to wait around doin’ nothing at all
Gonna be there between ten and eight
That’s am to pm. I got it straight
What’cha gonna do to steal back your time
Sing a little song and make a rhyme
Have fun on the way and it’ll be great
You won’t really mind when you turn 88

Where you gonna go - when the trumpet blows
Where you gonna be - when Jesus come for me
Where you gonna stay - on that crazy day
Where you gonna be - when Jesus come for me
Heaven don't have any tears
Heaven don't have any fears
No worry, no war, no crime no more
Heaven don't have any tears
Where you gonna go - when the horsemen show
Where you gonna be - when stars fall in the sea
Where you gonna stay - when the sky goes 'way
Where you gonna be - when Jesus come for me
Heaven don't have any tears
Heaven don't have any fears
No worry, no war, no crime no more
Heaven don't have any tears
Where you gonna go - when the trumpet blows
Where you gonna be - when Jesus come for me
Where you gonna stay - on that crazy day
Where you gonna be - when Jesus come for me

Ain’t nobody goin’ to heaven (4X)
Ain’t nobody goin to heaven
Dat’s what the bible say
Ain’t nobody goin to heaven
‘Less you follow Jesus all of the way
Ain’t nobody goin’ to heaven (3X)
Less you follow Jesus all of the way
Jesus say the road is narrow
Jesus say the gate is slim
Jesus say the road is narrow
Holy Ghost will help us if we let him
Ain’t nobody goin’ to heaven (3X)
Less you follow Jesus all of the way
Believe in you heart that Jesus has died
Believe in you heart God made him alive
Confess with you mouth he is your king
And when he come back, he take you wit him
Ain’t nobody goin’ to heaven (3X)
Less you follow Jesus all of the way
Jesus send the spirit to us
So he can show us the gate
Jesus send the spirit to us
Everyone who look can find out the way
Ain’t nobody goin’ to heaven (3X)
Less you follow Jesus all of the way
Ain’t nobody goin to heaven
Dat’s what the bible say
Ain’t nobody goin to heaven
‘Less you follow Jesus all of the way

363 Days
03:22
|
|||
|
Twenty Four hours are s’posed to make a day
Three sixty three days a year that is just okay
But two of them are really messed up
And that is why we’re here
Why we keep on doing this is not exactly clear
Spring ahead (spring ahead)
Fall behind (fall behind)
It’s the dumbest, dumbest thing of all time
Spring ahead (spring ahead)
Fall behind (fall behind)
‘Cause spending daylight (saving daylight) is a crime
I love regularity, going round and round
I do my job reliably, it’s nothing too profound
I mark the time in hours, in minutes, seconds too.
It’s nothing that’s too hard for me. It’s what I’m made to do
But twice a year they come up here and rip me off the wall
They grind my gears and push my arms where they should never fall
For weeks they mock and fault me for everything that’s wrong
Oh, the time change they say to pass the blame along
Spring ahead...
I tick and tock all night and day with that familiar sound
I use a simple battery I don’t need to be wound
I greet the sun each morning at its appointed time
I bid the moon good evening when it begins to shine
Spring ahead…
Everyone looks up to me from down there on the ground
I must keep working faithfully to never let them down
They think that time flies or drags, but everybody knows
With the passing of the time it’s steady as it goes
Why do we change the clocks two times every year
Who is saving all that light from our big yellow sphere
Where are they keeping it, when will they let it out
By now we should have plenty, so please, let’s cut it out!
Spring ahead...

Pay Doesn't Matter
03:07
|
|||
|
Factory work ten hours a day
Overtime's great but over time it pays
A toll on the body
A tax on the mind
A few more dollars and whole lotta of lost time
Pay doesn't matter without time to live
Living doesn’t matter without time to give
I feel less like a person, and more like the machines
Push pull sweat churn, and suits count the beans
Come here ‘cause bills need to be paid
They come once a month, I come every day
A drive in the car
Ten minutes of peace
Two hours at home before it repeats
Plug up my ears shield over my eyes
Machinery screams, Metal bits they fly
Dulled and protected
A Safety first sign
The buzzer will tell me when the time becomes mine

Revelation 5
03:55
|
|||
|
Then I saw on the right hand of him
Who was seated on the throne
with writing on the front and the back
It was a seven sealed scroll
I heard a mighty angel proclaim
With his voice aloud
Who is worthy to open the scroll
Can anybody be found
No one in heaven, on or under earth
Was able to open or look into it
And I began to weep so loud
‘cause there was no one …….. No one to be found
Weep no more there’s the Lion, come look and see
The root of David has come to open the seals
And the Lion Lamb went up to the throne
The elders fell down ……. and they sang a new song
You are worthy to take the scroll and to open up its seals,
because you were slain, and with your blood you purchased people for God -from every
tribe and language and people and nation you have made them to be
a kingdom and priests before our God, and they shall reign on the earth
We shall reign on the earth
You are worthy You are worthy
You are worthy You are worthy
You are worthy (to take the scroll)
You are worthy (of all our praise)
(of might and power)
(of wealth and wisdom)
(of honor and glory)
(of every blessing)
You are worthy (the Lamb the Lion)
You are worthy (the King of Zion)

You’ve got your pro-negative anti-reversal plan
Just to make it clear exactly where you don’t stand
I wouldn’t ever want to say your truly never not right, but that’s not wrong
Nothing is never concise if it isn’t very long. So in this song…
I can’t say I don’t disagree.
There’s nothing that I’d rather not see.
I can’t avoid restraining the screams
Everything is just as it seems
I totally wouldn’t disagree with posi-negativity, wouldn’t you?
There are so many insignificant important things to do.
Let’s not avoid leaving today what we can’t do tonight, it’s one more day
It’s the not most important thing we can’t avoid along the way. What do you say?
Everything we’re not missing here is clearly opaque
Nothing we’re not overlooking is unmistakably at stake

Come and Hear
04:23
|
|||
|
Oh she’s standing there in the middle of town
She’s got things to say, and she’s yelling out loud
Do you hear her? Do you hear her?
Do you hear her now?
She says she’s been here since the dawn of time
She was there before the sun began to shine
Held the moon in her hand one day
Rings of Saturn in her ears, she will say
Listen here
All you simple people Come and eat
All you wise and kings Stay at my feet
All you simple people everywhere
Look what I have to offer And you won’t wont care
About anything
Anything else
Won’t find anything
Anything else
To compare with me
Oh she’s standing there,with her arms spread wide
Swingin’ them in the air saying that the time
Is now. The time is now
Come and hear
I’d bet you’d love the wine that she makes
The bread that we need, that she bakes
Come and have a feast and get your fill
There’s not much to do But be still
Come and hear
Do you hear her? Do you hear her?
Do you hear her now?
Take some time and stop And look and see
There ain’t nothing bad around here. It’s easy to see
All the things she’s saying sound just right
All I do is keep praying that I take it home tonight
That I’ll take it home tonight
That I'll take it home tonight

It Makes Me Tired

It makes me tired
It makes me tired I just can’t sleep
It makes me tired
It makes me tired I just can’t sleep
I lay my head on my pillow, and all I can do is weep
Please tell me why
Please tell me why I gotta feel this way
Please tell me why
Please tell me why I gotta feel this way
Gonna wake up in the mornin’, gonna go on down and pray
Come teach to me
Come teach to me what’s right and what’s wrong
Come teach to me
Come teach to me what’s right and what’s wrong
I see so many people hurtin’, don’t want don’t want it to go on
Please give us peace
Please give us peace it’s so dark it’s so deep
Please give us peace
Please give us peace it’s so dark it’s so deep
Teach us how to sow, teach us to sow, what it is we should reap

Time for this to End
02:41

You’re a good old soul
But it’s time for this relationship to end
Mmmmm….
Never thought it be this way
You used to be so good
You and your partner I’m cutting you loose
Undoing the ties, And ending this abuse
You’re a good old soul
But it’s time for this to end
You’ve carried me through many miles of life
But new things must come along to ease the strife
You’re a good old soul
But it’s time for this to end
You’re tattered and worn Rougher than you used to be
The scuffs and scrapes have gotten too much for me
You’re a good old soul
But it’s time for this to end
We’ve walked this way, many times before
This time I’m leaving you outside the back door
Goodbye old shoes,
it’s time for you to go

The wind only blows east, when I’m going west
And if I turn around, it knocks me right on my chest
I only have a nickel, whenever I need a dime
And when I find a quarter, they say it cost thirty five
When my eyes get tire, I can’t never fall asleep
Once I’m finally dreamin, that’s when my alarm clock starts to beep

Go Free
03:18

|
I see him walkin’ away and he’s singin’
Heaven knows the way that he’s feelin’
But I’ll never know, the things that he’s been through
I’ve only heard a bit of the story
But he doesn’t want to take the glory
For the things he’s done. He’s not the only one
Oh, I see her she’s walking and singin’
She never gives a place for that feeling
That will never show. No, it will never show
But she’s going and sowing and reaping
Giving other people the reason
Just to carry on, and help them be strong
He has let go and now he’s free
She has let go and now she’s free
And I know that it’s me who is smilin'
Dealin' with the feelin’ I’m hidin’
But you’ll never know. No you’ll never know
But I’ll go on hopin' and prayin'
Waiting every day to awaken
To a brand new start. Come and clean my heart
I have let go and now I’m free

Mandolin Blues
02:53

|
He’s so hungry, but he can’t eat a thing
His friends are with him, they laugh and joke and sing
They don’t understand, they don’t understand, what the next hours bring
He’s feeling sick, he’s sweatin’ blood and and he’s sweatin’ tears
“Daddy take this back from me.” is ringin’, is ringin’ in his ears
None of them can stay awake with him, It’s like they haven’t slept in years
He holds the weight, the crushing pain, the misery
He stays right here, hanging limply on that tree
What’s done is done, he let his spirit go fly free.
Thunder and lightning, and darkness and clouds
The stones are all breaking, the tombs cry aloud
The veil of the temple is torn from top down
The dead are walkin’, comin’ up from the ground
The victory opened the way, it opened the way for me
The victory opened, it opened the way for me

We’re a Seven Member Band
We’re a Seven Member Band
We’re a Seven Member Band
We’re a Seven Member Band
We got 2 fingered Joe on the six string guitar
You should hear him strum’ and slide like a star
When it’s time to play he never breaks a sweat
When you ask him why it’s ‘cause he don’t ever fret.
And our one armed drummer who keeps the beat
He’s only got one stick but he uses both feet
When it’s time to count it off, he’ll start tapping
He’s easier to hear than one hand clapping
We’ve got the best singer, and it’s one legged Jim
He’s great with a melody and ready on a whim
He writes the best lyrics, they’re as sweet a clover
When it comes time to practice, he’ll hop on over.
The gang’s all here at least parts of them are
We’re 3 members short but I’m sure we’ll go far
We’ve got seven members except we’re four short
Let’s not worry about numbers because we’re not that sort.

Born Blind

Our son is born blind What do we do?
Our son is born blind What do we do?
What have we done wrong?
What have we done wrong?
Well, we’ll live our lives
He can’t see his mama’s face
He feels all around,
He can’t see his papa too
What did we do? Or What did we do?
What did we do? Or What did he do?
Babies born blind Couldn’t do nothing of his own
Teacher what’s wrong Teacher what’s wrong
Why was the blind can not see?
Why was this boy born so he cannot see?
This was nothing of his fault, This was nothing of his parent’s fault
Nothing that they could do
It was the will of God
Who is to say if a baby will be born with sight?
Who is to say if a baby will be born to hear?
Who is to say?
Who is to say?
It’s all in the hands of the Lord.
Now I will show you, the glory of God
Go wash your face, of this mud that I’ve made
Now I can see Now I see
Glory be to God because now I see
Did the teacher do wrong? Was it on the wrong day?
When a boy blind and now he can see.
No way.

Can't Stand to Slow Down
02:42

Always in a hurry with some place to go
Gotta fill every minute. Don't take it slow
The drive can be boring, so I want to speed
I gotta keep on moving to fulfill this need
Can't stand to be bored
Can't stand to slow down
I'd rather go 100 miles
and get outta this town
Gotta keep movin'. Don't want to stop
There's too many things, and I'm watchin the clock
FIfteen minutes left in the day
Almost midnight. I gotta hit the hay
I'm tired from the runnin', but can't seem to stop
No matter how I try I can't get on top
There's a red light flashin' for me up ahead
If I won't be careful I might end up dead
