03:51 Lyrics Sittin' on a Fence

Written by: Keith Richards / Mick Jagger

Since I was young I've been very hard to please
And I don't know wrong from right
But there is one thing I could never understand
Some of the sick things that a girl does to a man, so

I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I'm sittin on a fence

All of my friends at school grew up and settled down
And they mortgaged up their lives
One things not said too much, but I think it's true
They just get married 'cause there's nothing else to do, so

I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I'm sittin on a fence

I'm just sittin' on a fence
You can say I got no sense
Trying to make up my mind
Really is too horrifying
So I'm…

that you ain't feelin' with a full deck
the way you keep me hangin' on

You ain't been givin' all the way
'n I can feel your cold neglect
And it hurts t' say it darlin’
but you ain't feelin' with a full deck.

Chorus: You ain't feelin' with a full deck
You ain't been doin' your good man right
Ain't feelin' with a full deck

Ain't been checkin' up on what you should check
'n baby I just can't help but think ...
you ain't feelin' with a full deck

I lay 'n count the ceiling cracks
while you are fast asleep 'n dreamin'
it's hard to talk to someone's back

'n day t' day I'm more convinced
that you ain't feelin' with a full deck

02:43 Lyrics Love just Doesn't feel right anymore (alt. take)

Written by: Mark Brine

You’re a pretty woman, you’ve got everything it takes
But after losin’ her I guess I’m leery of mistakes
So I’m gonna hit the highway, now don’t you look for no excuse
I’m leaving while the knot of love’s still loose

Chorus:
‘cause love just doesn’t feel right, I can’t dive back in for more
After almost drowning I’m still headin’ for the shore
So if there’s any problem it’s with me and nothin’ more
Than love just doesn’t feel right anymore

‘cause once ya touch a fire and it burns your fingertips
It don’t make it easier to risk relationships
And after what I’ve just been through, I guess I’m just as sore
‘cause love just doesn’t feel right anymore

03:34 Lyrics Backroads (Re-mix)

Written by: Mark Brine

1.I wandered down the back roads last nite
Deep into the sleeping hands of time
Back to the home that we once knew
and I saw a fleeting glimpse (there) of you
in your school uniform with your long blonde hair
‘n that tie you used to wear
And we were pals once again
In those few short moments lost in space
And I remember feeling just so overwhelmed
At simply seein' your little face
And I ran my hand across your head (for good luck)
Like I always used t' do way back then
As you showed me your drawing of a truck
And in that moment, the dream came to an end

Chorus:
Back roads - back roads
Down the back roads of (2.in) time
Back roads - back roads
Down the back roads of my (2.your) mind

2. It’s sad how the paths of life just stray
Fathers and sons how they go their separate ways
Yes, I realize it’s all the Master's plan
He molds you in His hands - you've become a full grown man
But, I only hope that one day in your travels
No matter where the road may go 'n how the tale unravels
Yes, somewhere when you stop to look behind
You'll know I'll always be there
down the back roads of your mind

03:54 Lyrics Fortunes (Alt. take)

Written by: OLA BELLE REED

There are FORTUNES in a life time
All our money cannot buy
Like the tiny little snowflake
Slowly floating down from the sky
There are wonders never ceasing
Created by our Master's hand
But the greatest of all our fortunes
Its in God's promised land

Chorus:

Oh the rich man with all of his money
All of his silver and all of his gold
He can’t buy one breath of life
Or a home for his weary (eternal) soul
For that is bought and it is paid for (already)
By the blood of the blessed Lamb
Yes the greatest of all our fortunes
Its in God's promised land

There are fortunes in a teardrop
There are fortunes in a smile
In the face of a weary pilgrim
Or the face of a little child
There are fortunes right in your Bible
If you'll read it well then you'll understand
But the greatest of all our fortunes
Its in God’s promised land

Written by: Mark Brine

1.With all the many songs that this world has to sing
With all the songs that i have sung alone
I don’t want my voice to be the echo of itself, no

03:01 Lyrics Sweet Harmony

Written by: Johnny Irwin

An old man stops his taxi.. somewhere near the Bowery
then he stacks a lady's groceries.. on the backseat for a tip
and as they wind around the clovers (corners).. she is staring at his picture
and then he hears his whole life.. on her lips

"Say, you once were big on T.V. .. your singing style was Country
you were married to Sweet Harmony.. is she still living too?"
Then she tears off some brown bag.. and she hands it up for signing..
Sweet Harmony... I signed for me and you...

Chorus 1:
Sweet Harmony.. couldn't live with me... and watch me die a falling star
She landed on El Paso sands.. She married some big business man..
Sweet Harmony and me.. we fell apart

I went down... in the Bowery.. just like a match dropped in whiskey
'til the price of my performance.. couldn't settle at the bar
then, I made one more record.. but, I heard the age and the whiskey
and the sounds that were missing.. broke my heart

Chorus 2:
Sweet Harmony.. How you shined with me...
Through flames of fame and golden youth
and now I drive a Bowery cab.. and when I sign an autograph...

Sweet Harmony... I cry for me and you

02:35 Lyrics Blue Yodel #1 (T for Texas)

Written by: Jimmie Rodgers

T for Texas, T for Tennessee
T for Thelma
That gal made a wreck out of me.

O-de-lay-ee-a-lay-ee-o-ly-ee

If you don't want me mama
You sure don't have to stall
If you don't want me mama
You sure don't have to stall
'Cause I can get more women
Than a passenger train can haul.

I'm gonna buy me a pistol
Just as long as I'm tall, Lawd, Lawd
I'm gonna buy me a pistol
Just as long as I'm tall
I'm gonna shoot poor Thelma
Just to see her jump and fall.

I'm gonna buy me a shotgun
With a great long shiny barrel
I'm gonna buy me a shotgun
With a great long shiny barrel
I'm gonna shoot that rounder
That stole my gal.

Rather drink muddy water
Sleep in a hollow log
Rather drink muddy water
And sleep in a hollow log
Than to be in Atlanta
Treated like a dirty dog.

03:12 Lyrics (The Long, Lost Art Of) Common Sense

Written by: Mark Brine

Chorus:
The long lost art of common sense
‘s been sold down the river at the world’s (2. Public’s/3.People’s) expense
Wisdom’s on vacation she’s sittin’ on a fence … with…

The nutty professor intellect.. who thinks his job is just to preach
Or the Hollywood movie stars.. who claim they know what’s right
’n how to run the world.. when they can’t even run their lives.. it’s..

Yeah, you hear it on the news
‘n from people that you meet
Even in some churches.. on the first day of the week
‘n it make ya kinda wonder where on earth it’s gonna end
‘n what tragedy it’s gonna take t’ get some sanity back again…it’s..

02:31 Lyrics The Rambler's Call

Written by: Mark Brine

1. When i get t’ feelin’ like this I gotta find me a new road

When i get t’ feelin’ this low i get the urge t’ wanna go
When i get t’ feelin’ to be where i ain’t ever been before
When I hear the rambler’s call i gotta go

2. On a lonesome railroad track somewhere in the darkness of the night
The moon is shining on the image of a rambler in his flight
His map is the horizon and without explainin’ you just know
He heard the rambler’s call and had t’ go

3. When I hear the rambler’s call there ain’t no use in holdin’ on
Woman it’s the road and i can’t say now for how long
And if someone asks about us wonderin’ why ‘n what went wrong
Just say he heard the call ‘n he was gone

4. ‘cause when i get t’ feelin’ like this I gotta find me a new road
When i get t’ feelin’ this low i get the urge t’ wanna go
When i get t’ feelin’ to be where i ain’t ever been before
When I hear the rambler’s call i gotta go

03:22 Lyrics Little Buddy

Written by: Hank Snow

Broken hearted and so sad, golden curls all wet with tears,
'twas a picture of sorrow to see.
Kneeling close to the side of his pal and only pride,
A little lad these words he told me.

He was such a lovely doggie and to me he was such fun,
but today as we played by the way
A drunken man got mad at him because he barked in joy,
He beat him and he's dying here today.

Will you call the doctor please and tell him if he comes right now,
he'll save my precious doggie 'cause I'll pray.
Then he stroked the fluffy head but his little pal was dead,
Just a shiver and he slowly passed away.

4th and 5th verse are spoken

He didn't know his dog had died, so I told him as he cried
"Come with me son we'll get that doctor right away"
"But I can't leave him here alone, I must get my doggie home
So while you're gone I'll kneel beside him, sir and I'll pray."

But when I returned he had his little pal upon his knee
And the teardrops they were blinding his big blue eyes,
"You're too late, sir my doggie's dead and no help can save him now
But I'll meet my precious Buddy up in the sky."

By a tiny narrow grave, where the willows sadly wave,
are these words on a shingle of pine:
"Little Buddy rest in peace, God will watch you thru' the years,
'Cause I told Him in my prayers that you were mine."

03:14 Lyrics I Got It Made

Written by: Mark Brine

1. I know I’ve lots ‘a reasons.. t’ hang my head ‘n moan
But i ain’t gonna be sorrow’s slave
I’m gonna keep my chin up, smile.. ‘n laugh my troubles away
‘cause fact is I got it made

2. Sure, the whole world’s crazy you don’t need t’ tell me that
I see it from my windows every day
But at least i got my eyes t’ look upon it ‘n you could say
Just one ‘a them reasons I got it made… Yeah…

Chorus:
I got it made ... i got it made in the shade
I’m a lazy good-f’-nuthin’ .. but at least my bills get paid
‘n i ain’t never gonna be no millionaire but i don’t care
‘cause in spite of everything i got it made.

3. I’ll admit that bad luck follows me like a map was on my back
But at least i got these legs t’ get around
‘n someday when i learn t’ run, i’m gonna leave it in the dust
‘n look out then, ‘cause people, i’m freedom bound…Yeah..

4. But even if i never do I’m gonna thank the Lord above
Ev’ry single day for what He gave
‘cause even tho i ain’t got much.. I got myself ‘n that’s enough
as long as I do i got it made

03:49 Lyrics He Wrote Our Names (Upon His Hands)

Written by: Mark Brine

He wrote our names upon His hands
As He promised us so long ago
That he would never ever forget us
Wherever that He may go
Indelibly, He had them placed there
Like initials carved in a tree
As a sign of love, ever-endearing
Before we even ever came to be
Yes, He knew each one of us
Before the dawning of time
That’s what He wrote in His word
And in an act of total self denial
He gave Himself that we might be assured

Chorus:
In a promise of old as the words they were told
That He’d never forget or leave us out in the cold no-

He wrote our names upon His hands
Embedded right deep in His flesh
With a show of love completely unequalled
Not to mention it’s selflessness
Yes, to right the wrong of one man’s crime
That all thru Him might not fail
Yes, He wrote our names upon His hands
With a pair of rusty ole nails
