Ton Of Heart
Come on in
Baby when it comes to you and me
I’m sure we can make history
And there’s no telling where it can lead from now
You held me up when I was sad
When you were down I made you glad
But you if anyone deserve a crown
And its so right this time
Come on in love, come on in love
If we made it this far lets make a difference
Come on in love, come on in love
don’t stand in the hall, let’s walk the line, go park your car
Put love on parole
and common in
When you look at me I look at you
And there’s no telling what I could do
Just to see you makes me wanna cry
Its all over and obvious, a very good thing for us
And the way you hug just makes me wanna die
And its so right this time
Surely we could sit all night with a cozy fire on
I got nothing better to do and I unplugged the telephone
Outside the rain is pouring and that’s a good thing
Cuz I know you got a beautiful heart that I got time to win
Like that no more
First we had a Ford, than we had a Chevy
Anyone of those would be fine with me but oh, they don´t make them like that no more
Where are the singers like Waylon & Willy
is country too slow or maybe just too silly cuz oh, they don´t make it like that no more
If you go to a resturante or go to a store folks are too tired to even hold up a door
These times are so weird you wonder why you´re in it
a guy like John Wayne he wouldn´t last a minute, oh
A friend of mine she kind of loved James Dean
she looked at me and said: darling ain´t it a shame but oh they don´t make them like that no more
Well i know the times have to change
guess my grandma´s mama said the same that oh, they don´t make them like that no more
chorus
maybe i´m to old fashioned to say it mild
but times intend to be a little too wild
if folks get a gun they can shoot allright
but they don´t even know how to put up a decent fight,for sure
Pusher
It’s a long good drive to my love from the city
A long good drive but we been through that baby
Now I’m moving out, I’d be a fool to turn you down
Oh well, you might be a pusher
But I’d be a fool to push you away
Well I saw my baby sometimes in the weekends
That was not enough so now I’m moving in
Cuz darling you know that I love you
In a strong good way, yes I do
Oh well you might be a pusher
But I’d be a fool to push you away
Well its all right, oh with me
I grabbed my case and I moved in
And we’ll be all right for the rest of our lives
I never regret that you made my try
Although you might me a pusher I’d be a fool to push you away
I'll be gone
You keep telling me that things will change
I have seen some changes but this one is ain´t coming on
And before you get there I’ll be gone
If your read giving up on my face baby maybe your right
What ever it is your waiting for it’s sure out of sight
And it wont come
And before you get there I’ll be gone
I’ll be gone, ´for you find what your looking for
Gone, ´for you know where you wanna go
Gone, ´for you think your really sure
Gone, while you’re keeping me on hold
I’m slowly letting go of holding on
And I’ll be gone
Talk me into it be my guest
Just give me one reason, not to quit
Talk me into it honey cuz here I sit
And I’m loosing sanity time and grip
If I hade seen you try and not come on
Maybe I felt stupid baby if I thought I was wrong
I’d bite my tongue
But before we get there, I’ll be gone
7th heaven on 5th floor
She looked at me and said common in
I kind of just wondered where you have been
I know a place where you can park your car
Than she sat me right down next to the bar
And the girl’s got it made
She got a hit for sure
And tonight she’ll stay at 7:th heaven on 5:th floor
She said I usually don’t use no chair so they took the furniture out of here
I feel that If people really wanna dance
Someone’s got to be descent and give ém that chance
Later we take a car and we go riding around and up and down town
Think of all the fun we had and we cant stop talking about it
´til´ the sun goes down
But according to the band we got to get back to our hotel for sure
7:th heaven on 5:th floor
Your ton of heart
Now just write me if I’m wrong
Tell me I don’t have to cry
And we could let this thing go on
´til the very day we die
I’m a fool and it’s a shame
That I hate when we’re apart
But just write me if I’m wrong
Its too light, your ton of heart
Yes you’re lovely but so cold
Like a plastic peace of art
But I will love you ´til I’m old
Though its light. Your ton of heart
Well to love you is heaven and hell combined
As I sit with the letter that you just signed
Every sweet talking word is underlined
But at the end all I am gonna find
Is that its light, your ton of heart
So just write me if I’m wrong
Tell me I don’t have to cry
And we could let this thing go on
´til the very day I die
I’m a fool and it’s a shame
That I hate when we’re apart
But it don’t matter what you claim
Its too light, your ton of heart
Hudson river
As far as I can see now mama
I stood in front of a big wall
And the hole you left within my heart
Kept me listening for an important call
And I promised you that I stood up
When I heard somebody said: let’s let her
A voice as strong as the Hudson River
At 5 a clock a.m I turned to see what your friend had got
In spite of who I am he opened up for me to shop
And the love that he delivered
Was as deep as the Hudson River
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
And maybe I ain´t never turned to God
If I could have kept you here for real
And maybe I ain´t never been so odd
If I wouldn’t have had this heart to heal
And I’ve done so many stupid things
At the time I though that I would wither
When I was lonesome as the Hudson River
To fill the whole of you I turned to see what your friend had got
In spite of who I am he opened up for me to shop
And imagine I needed a forgiver
Just as precious as the Hudson River
At 5 a clock a.m I turned to see what your friend had got
In spite of who I am he always kept the door unlocked
And the ton of love that he delivered
Was as strong as the Hudson River
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
No one but me
I say what I feel and I mean what I say when I say it
Its been too long this way and I cant do a thing about it
You want me to stay where I stand
And stay where I am but I cant take it
Darling I got a plan and I got a feeling we can make it
Oh, and this will come as no surprise
You don’t even lift a brow
This might mean a thing to nobody
This is not the talk of the town
They got other things on their mind
It might not mean a thing to no one but me
I know people get scared they think that I’m weird when they hear it
They want me to sit on this chair just combing my hair and obey it
But I been sitting here darling for hours now
So I feel that I might as well say it out loud
If I don’t get out I go crazy and baby you know it
Johannestown
I walk the streets where your feet barley ever touched the ground
All the traffic lights, the little shops and all the neon signs
Now everyone’s a stranger and everybody’s homeward bound
Its beautiful here in Johannes town
She’s standing in the doorway and she put her hand on mine
Its hard to even speak when words are hard to find
The ones you left behind can only watch the sun go down
And it’s a beautiful sun in Johannes town
And everybody looses something but life it just goes on
Some folks loose a little but some folks loose a ton
And all that we can do is being thankful for the loan
While we walk the ground of Johannes town
When she finally speaks she says. I probably live another 30 years or so
And why God has forced up on me to let my little one go
Is something that I guess he’s never gonna let me know
´til they put me down in Johannes town
But there were plenty at his funeral who came to say goodbye
Each balloon a different color when they took off to the sky
And while we sang his favorite song we watched the sun go down
And we were left behind in Johannes town
Homeward bound bus
I don’t mean to be rude or too offensive
I don’t wanna put up no fight
But I’m not the person who sit down lame
I got other plans tonight
As the water that runs for you don’t run for me
And that is just the way it is
It took 7 long years and 7 odd nightmares
´for I realized what I had to change
I was stuck with a foot on my enemies path
So darling am I glad you came
As the water that runs for us don’t run for the
When we jump on a Tennessee homeward bound bus
If you’re not getting any answer on the phone tonight
Its cuz I got an urgent letter to write
Tomorrow you’ll be missing us
And that is just the way it is
Cuz we’re jumping on a Tennessee homeward bound bus
Yeah we’re jumping on a Tennessee homeward bound bus
Between us
He’s sweet he’s fine (she’s the one for me)
He’s good and he’s kind (wow, ain´t she a sight to see)
What ever happens what ever that was
We wont let a thing come between us
Best friends always (girl did we have fun)
But sometimes we face days to turn this thing around
What ever happens when ever that will be
We wont let a thing come between you and me
Some couples fight about who’s loving who
I know I never would do that to you
Baby be mine for eternity
In rain and sunshine we will live so happily
What ever happens, what ever that was
We wont let a thing come between us
That much
Heard you got married to some little thing In Vegas
And though I had it coming it still came as a surprise
I guess somewhere along the road you got tired of waiting
And I figure you thought all I told you only were lies
Oh and I’m on a stage in some state I cant think of the name of
Living this so called “gypsy life”
Now I guess she will offer you all of the things that I couldn’t
But you better come looking for me if she wont treat you right
Cuz I thought of you then as I think of you now
And there’s no getting over, not for me anyhow
But I never wanted that much when you were mine
I was stupid and blind how could I let you go
Knowing you were the one is to late now I know
But I never wanted that much when you were mine
(never wanted that much)
Oh and you got a place in my heart that is yours forever
If you’re lonesome for me on the road is where I’ll be
Now I know that you promised that girl for worse and for better
But if she wont treat you right you better come looking for me
Waste it
Common love lets leave this place
Leave this town just drive away
Your not just sad, there’s something more
I got some money left what will I need them for
Lets waste it
Common love don’t wait and see
I got some friends in Texas, Wylie
Your not just sick from being bored
Now time is something I got plenty of
So lets waste it
I quit my job, resigned today
Filled the papers out and walked away
I thought of you all day and night
I though of how we ought to relate to life
Lets waste it
We need something to do
To make us feel right
Something brand new
So we can feel life
Tonight I had the strangest dream there was this angel face on my TV screen
She shook her head and looked straight at me and said:
You got a choice what more do you need
And I got up and I went out
And I thought of you all day and night
And I thought of what means most In life
And to me that is to see your smile
So lets get up and walk a while yeah lets get out from the station house
Let me put some love e in to your life
Let me put some hope into your eyes
There’s a hill up a yonder
That we never crossed
There’s a world full of wonders
Waiting for us
So common love lets leave this place
Leave this town just drive away
I filled the tank full today so common love
What do you say
Lets waste it
Lets waste it
The riverflow
One day when my stride is over
Gonna lift my hands to the sky
Yeah, when I get a call from the man up there
He’ll dry the tears from my eyes
One day I’ll be gone from here lord
Be forgotten in no time
Hope you kept me in the book of life
Got my name there underlined
Oh cross the river flow,
I’m gonna cross the river flow oh yeah
Oh cross the river flow
I’m gonna cross the river flow
I’ve more likely been a sinner than a saint
I ain´t got to much to show
Its not the healthy who needs a doctor
I know you’ll keep an open door
This world is some place to be in
Makes you sick and it makes you tired
Still I know that I’m one of your children
And you’ll dry the tears from my eyes
