GREAT DIVIDE 

I guess we've walked a million miles together hand in hand
We'd climb steep Rocky Mountains a happy woman a happy man
We'd thought our love would go on forever side by side
But here we stand like strangers at the great divide
We've loved our way to the top of life the rest was all down hill
The rough times seem behind us and our dreams were all fulfilled
But we found out sometimes love grows old and I think our love just died
But here we stand like strangers at the great divide
Now you'll take a high road I will take the low
But who'll take the baby cause we both love her so
Divorce is not the answer now but we've got too much pride
So here we stand like strangers at the great divide
So here we stand like strangers at the great divide

GREEN GRASS GROWS ALL AROUND 

Little Johnnie Green, Little Sallie Brown spooning in the park with the grass all around, Underneath a tree, they were making love, gazing at the silver stars above, John said "Sallie our love will grow, I've got money said Sal, you know, And if you will share my lot I'll give you all I've got." Head upon his breast Little Sallie Brown Cooche, Cooche Coo with the grass all around, now and then a kiss, then a loving sigh, what would popsey do if ma should die, John said Sallie when we are wed, I'll bring breakfast to you in bed, Come on dear just one more squeeze Give me your bank book please. After they were wed, I can cook she said Fried a piece of steak with the grass all around, made some biscuits too, which poor Johnnie ate, Doctor, came, but then it was too late, John delirious starts to rave, three days after he's in his grave, All his happy days are gone, home cooking killed poor John! And the green grass grew all around, all around, all around, and each little bird in the tree top high said "Oh you Kid" and winked his eye, and the green grass grew all around, all around, on the ground, with all your gold my turtle dove, said he "How can you doubt my love?" and the green grass grew all around, all around, and the green grass grew all around. And the green grass grew all around, all around, all around, and each little bird in the tree top high sang "Oh you Kid" "You're some wise guy!" and the green grass grew all around, all around, on the ground, John fancied he heard some one say, there's always one born every day, and the green grass grew all around, all around, and the green grass grew all around. And the green grass grew all around, all around, all around, and each little bird in the tree top high sand "Oh you John" Goodbye, goodbye! and the green grass grew all around, all around, on the ground, The biscuits he could not digest, were laid away with John to rest, and the green grass grew all around, all around, and the green grass grew all around.

HALF OVER YOU 

I've seen your body and I've sailed to this heart
Now I'm somewhere in between
I believe that it's over but sometimes I'm still blue
There's no place so lonely being half over you.

Don't feel much like climbin' 'cause I don't want to fall
Here in the memory I don't feel much at all
I've almost accepted the fact that we're through
There's no place so lonely being half over you.

--- Instrumental ---

I wasn't this bad off when first you were gone
'Cause misery kept me company
And then I remember the heights we've been to
There's no place so lonely being half over you.

Don't feel much like climbin' 'cause I don't want to fall
Here in the memory I don't feel much at all
I've almost accepted the fact that we're through
There's no place so lonely being half over you.

No, there's no place so lonely being half over you...

HALLELUJAH WEEKEND 

Oh, the coffee pot's perkin', soon dad leaves for workin'
Oh, it's Monday Lord, and we forgot you again
By Tuesday we're a-waitin and it's gettin' agravatin'
Knowin' Wednesday's still hangs in the wind.

Saturday's goin' to please us, oh, but Sunday without Jesus
Only brings troubled Monday again.

And your Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday

He only want love to die for our sins
Starts your Mondays and Tuesdays
And Sundays going to leave us
Upon a Saturdays hallelujah weekend.

HANG UP THE BABY'S STOCKING 

Hang up the baby's stocking
Be sure that you don't forget
For the dear little dimpled darling
Has never seen Christmas yet!

I told her all about it
She opened her big blue eyes
I'm sure she understood it
She looked so funny and wise.

--- Instrumental ---

(Scotty)
Gee, what a tiny stocking!
It doesn't take much to hold
But little pink toe's as baby's
Away from the frost and the cold.

But then, for the baby's Christmas
It never would do at all
Why! Santa wouldn't be looking
For anything half so small.

--- Instrumental ---

(Lulu Belle)
I'll know what we'll do for the baby
I've thought of the very best plan
I'll borrow a stocking from Grandma
The biggest that ever I can.

And hang it by mine, dear mother
Right here in the corner so
I'll write a letter to Santa
And fasten it to the toe.

--- Instrumental ---

(Both)
Write-this is the baby's stocking
That hangs in the corner here
You never have seen her, Santa
For she only came this year.

(Lulu Belle)
But she's just the blessed'st baby
And now before you go
Just cram her stocking with goodies
From the top down to the toe!

(Both)
Hang up the baby's stocking
Be sure that you don't forget!
For the dear little dimpled darling,
Has never seen Christmas yet!...

HANGIN' ON TO ONE & HANGIN' ROUND THE OTHER 

I've heard people say that love is maeant for two
But this old heart of mine knows that this ain't true
Three's a crowd they say but somehow something's wrong
I got one I hang around and one I love at home.

(Hanging on to one, and hangin' 'round the other.)
The one I hang around is more than just a lover
The one I love at home is a good wife and a mother
Hangin' on to one and hangin' 'round the other.

--- Instrumental ---

Now heartaches on the way the ending soon will come
But I can't stand the thought of losing either one
The truth I hide inside is more than I can stand
Me and her in misery a-walkin' hand in hand.

(Hanging on to one, and hangin' 'round the other.)
The one I hang around is more than just a lover
The one I love at home is a good wife and a mother
Hangin' on to one and hangin' 'round the other.

Hangin' on to one and hangin' 'round the other...

HARDEST PART OF ALL 

The fear of losing you somehow yet in my mind, still lingers
Tomorrow will not seem so close to gettin' us today
I'm holding on but I can feel you darlin' slippin' through my fingers
And it hurts to see your love for me just slowly slip away.

And the party going on as long as I can seem to find the reason
I'd crawl to you if it would do one bit of good at all
I just sit and watch the screen wall that I built around you fall
Without a reason that's the hardest part of all.

--- Instrumental ---

If there was something I had done then I could say I'm sorry
And try to make things up to you somehow I'd find a way
But the only thing I'm guilty of is lovin' you so long now
I can't stand to see your love for me just slowly slip away.

And the party going on as long as I can't seem to find the reason
I'd crawl to you if it would do one bit of good at all
I just sit and watch the green wall that I built around you fall
Without a reason that's the hardest part of all.

Without a reason that's the hardest part of all...

HAVE MERCY ON ME 

My mother and me know all the books of the bible
She guided my way as long as she could
But I wondered astray to worship false idols
It brought me shame, she told me it would.

Have mercy on me (have mercy on me)
Dear Lord a poor sinner (dear Lord a poor sinner)
I'm looking for you (I'm looking for you)
In Heaven some day (in heaven some day.)

On the righteous road (on the righteous road)
I'm just a beginner (I'm just a beginner)
Have mercy on me (have mercy on me)
And show me the way (and show me the way.)

--- Instrumental ---

How many loved ones are already in Heaven
They're praying for me as if they know
They're hoping I'll change my way of living
Well, tell them I have they'll be happy to know.

Have mercy on me (have mercy on me)
Dear Lord a poor sinner (dear Lord a poor sinner)
I'm looking for you (I'm looking for you)
In Heaven some day (in heaven some day.)

On the righteous road (on the righteous road)
I'm just a beginner (I'm just a beginner)
Have mercy on me (have mercy on me)
And show me the way (and show me the way.)

HE IS MY EVERYTHING 

I long to be his possession he is my everything
I remember my days of darekness without sunshine or sight to lead my way
Then a whisper of his voice softly called me to the arms of my Maker to stay
He is my reason for living he is the king of all kings
I long to be his possession he is my everything

After the lightning and the thunder after the last bell has rung
I want to bow down before Jesus and hear him say well done
He is my reason for living...
I long to be his possession he is my everything

HE MADE ME FREE 

I had drifted for so long with my life so full of wrong
That the Lord should have turned his back on me
But he took the trembling hand of a lost and lonely man
Broke the chains from mortal shame and made me free
Yes he took away the sin from my soul where it had been
And he helped my blinding eyes again to see
Yes and now I understand the beauty of salvation's plan
Out on the cross you paid the cost and made me free
I had sunk so deep in shame never calling on his name
All the joys of life had turned to misery
But then he gave me back control of my lost and wandering soul
Removed the fears dried my tears and made me free
Yes he took away the sin that had stained me deep within
And he gave me back the fate that I might see
Now I'm so glad I understand the promise of salvation's plan
Out on the cross you paid the cost and made me free
