WHERE COULD I GO BUT TO THE LORD 

(Where could I go but to the Lord)
Living below in this old sinful world hardly a comfort can afford
Striving alone to face temptation sore where could I go but to the Lord
Where could I go oh where could I go seeking a refuge for my soul
Needing a friend to save me in the end where could I go but to the Lord
Life here is grand with friends I love so dear comfort I get from God's own word
Yet when I face the chilling hand of death where could I go but to the Lord
Where could I go where could I go...

WHERE DID THE SUNSHINE GO 

Where did the sunshine go, why is it raining so
Where is the love I used to know, where did the
sunshine go.
Where did the sunshine go, why do the cold winds blow
Where is the one I needed so, where did the sunshine
go?

I discovered the sunshine in a woman's loving smile
Like a fool I thought the sun had come to stay
Then she fell for another and the sun went out of style
And the springtime vanished when I went away.

Where did the sunshine go, why is it raining so
Where is the love I used to know, where did the
sunshine go.
Where did the sunshine go, why do the cold winds blow
Where is the one I needed so, where did the sunshine
go?

Now there's mothing but heartaches in the whole wide
lonely earth
Anyway my blue world looks that way to me
Gone is all of the sunshine and the smile that gave it
birth
Leaving nothing but a cold cold misery.

Where did the sunshine go, why is it raining so
Where is the love I used to know, where did the
sunshine go.
Where did the sunshine go, why do the cold winds blow
Where is the one I needed so, where did the sunshine
go?...

WHERE DOES A LITTLE TEAR COME FROM 

Where does a little tear come from where does a little tear come from
It comes from a heart that's been broken apart
That's where a little tear comes from
Where does the broken heart come from where does the broken heart come from
It comes when you find that you love the roving kind
That's where the broken heart comes from

Where does the roving kind come from where does the roving kind come from
From the wild and restless river that wanders on forever
That's where the roving kind comes from

Where does the restless river come from where does the restless river come from
It comes from little tears that I shed through the years
That's where the restless river comes from
Where does a little tear come from

WHERE GRASS WON'T GROW 

The dirt was clay and was the color of the blood in me
 A twelve acre farm on a ridge in south Tennessee
 We left our sweat all over that land behind a mule we watched grow old
 Row after row
 Tryin' to grow corn and cotton on ground so poor that grass won't grow
 
There was one old store in the holler we all called town
 It belonged to a gentle old man named Henry Brown
 He gave us credit in the winter time so we could live through the cold
 When the winds brought snow
 Tryin' to grow corn and cotton on ground so poor that grass won't grow
 [ guitar ]
 Oh the one I loved walked through those fields with me
 She was a hard workin' woman true as one could be
 Oh but then one year death was goin' round and swiftly took it's toll
 Janie had to go
 Now she lies asleep under ground so poor that grass won't grow
 
As I stand here looking over this part of Tennessee
 The fields are bare as far as the eye can see
 And over the grave where Janie lies there's a beautiful sight to behold
 And no one knows
 Why there's flowers growing on ground so poor that grass won't grow
 Now there's flowers growing on ground so poor that grass won't grow

WHERE WE'LL NEVER GROW OLD 

I have heard of a land on the far away strand
'Tis a beautiful home of the soul
Built by Jesus on high, where we never shall die
'Tis a land where we never grow old.

Never grow old, never grow old
In a land where we'll never grow old
Never grow old, never grow old
In a land where we'll never grow old.

--- Instrumental ---

When our work here is done and the life crown is won
And out troubles and trials are o'er
All our sorrows will end and our voices will blend
With the loved ones who've gone on before

Never grow old, never grow old
In a land where we'll never grow old
Never grow old, never grow old
In a land where we'll never grow old...

WHITE CHRISTMAS 

I'm dreamin' of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white...

WHO SHOT SAM 

Well, I met Sammy Samson down in New Orleans
He had a lot of money and a big limousine
He took us honky-tonkin' on a Saturday night
We met Silly Milly, everything was all right
Her eyes started rollin', we should a-went a-bowlin'
Wham-bam, who shot Sam, my-my

Well, Sam and Silly Milly, about a quarter to four
Was rompin' and a-stompin' on the hardwood floor
Along came Flirty Mirty bargin' in on the fun
Silly Milly got jealous and she pulled out a gun
Tables started crashin', fourty-four's a-flashin'
Wham-bam, who shot Sam, my-my

Well, the police, fire chief, highway patrol
Knockin' down the front door with a big long pole
Sammy was a lyin' on the cold-cold floor
Shot through the middle with a fourty-four
Milly was a-cryin', Sam was surely dyin'
Wham-bam, who shot Sam, my-my

Well, they took Silly Milly to the jail down town
Booked Silly Milly for a-shootin' old Sam
The judge he gave her twenty, Milly said that's a lot
You shouldn't give me nothing, he was already half shot
A-drinkin' white lightnin' started all the fightin'
Wham-bam, who shot Sam, my-my

Well, the police, fire chief, highway patrol
Knockin' down the front door with a big long pole
Sammy was a lyin' on the cold-cold floor
Shot through the middle with a fourty-four
Milly was a-cryin', Sam was surely dyin'
Wham-bam, who shot Sam, my-my

WHO WILL I BE LOVING NOW 

Well, I thought you'd found your happiness
Right here lovin' me
I thought my life was so complete
But how wrong can one man be.

You were the perfect deceiver
Yes, you knew just what to do
So who will I be loving now
'Cause, I won't be lovin' you?

You told me that you loved me
And that you were satisfied
I couldn't see the truth 'cause I
Had love all in my eyes.

And now you've found another
And it tears my heart in two
So who will I be lovin' now
Since I won't be loving you?

So tell me where I'll go now
Tell me what I'll do
Who's lips will I be kissin'
Since I won't be kissin' you?

Well, I feel so lost and helpless
How can I start anew
So who will I be loving now
Since I won't be lovin' you?

So who will I be loving now
Since I won't be lovin' you?...

WHO'LL TURN OUT THE LIGHTS 

I wonder who'll turn out the lights
In your world tonight
Whose shoulder will your head
Be resting on?

Does your hungry arms be reach
For a man you feel you need
Will that need still be there
When he's gone.

As I reach for the switch
That turns out my lights
I wonder who'll turn out the lights
In your world tonight.

Has someone found the secret
That I couldn't find
Is he touching that old switch
That I've touched so many times.

Is he turnin' on the woman
I could never satisfy
I wonder who'll turn out the lights
In your world tonight?
