I ain't gonna tell nobody
What Santa Fe 've done for me
I ain't gonna tell nobody
What Santa Fe 've done for me

If you want to know baby
You sure have to come and see

81's in the yardie
2's are on the road
81's in the yardie
2's are on the road

81 makes your living
82 put you out of door

Nobody knows on trouble
But the good Lord above
Nobody knows my trouble
But the good Lord above

Well you know how I feel
If ya'ever have been in love

Lord I ain't go down
That big road by myself
Lord I ain't go down
That big road by myself

If you can't go with me
Carry somebody else

I ain't gonna tell nobody
What Santa Fe 've done for me
I ain't gonna tell nobody
What Santa Fe 've done for me

If you want to know baby
You sure have to come and see


2. ROCKING CHAIR

Old rockin' chair's got me, my cane by my side
Fetch me that gin, son, 'fore I tan your hide
Can't get from this cabin, goin' nowhere
Just set me here grabbin' at the flies round this rockin' chair

My dear old aunt Harriet, in Heaven she be
Send me sweet chariot, for the end of the trouble I see
Old rockin' chair gets it, Judgement Day is here
Chained to my rockin' chair

Old rockin' chair's got me, son, (Rocking chair got you, father)
My cane by my side, (Yes, your cane by your side)
Now fetch me a little gin, son (Ain't got no gin, father)
What? 'fore I tan your hide, now, (You're gonna tan my hide)

You know, I can't get from this old cabin (What cabin? joking)

Just sittin' me here grabbin' (Grabbin')
At the flies round this old rockin' chair (Rockin' chair)

3. RIVER RUNS DEEP

Well, the river runs deep
And the water is cold as ice
River runs deep
And the water is cold as ice

I go down there every chance I get
It's where my baby, she met her death
And the river runs deep
And the water is cold as ice

Ain't no woman
Gonna make a fool out of me
Ain't no woman
Gonna make a fool out of me

Running 'round, that's what they said
She's at the bottom of the river dead
And the river runs deep
The water is cold as ice

Cheating woman
Gonna get a good man down
Cheating woman
Gonna get a good man down

Running 'round like a silly fool
End up at the bottom of the pool
The river runs deep
The water is cold as ice

The river runs deep
The water is cold as ice
The river runs deep
The water is cold as ice

And the river runs deep
The water is cold as ice
The river runs deep
The water is cold as ice

The river runs deep
The water is cold as ice


4. JUDGEMENT DAY

What you gonna do on judgement day
The time's run out now, you can't stay
Screaming and crying, you got to go
Turn and say, "Peter won't you open the door?"

Yes, I'm coming
(Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming
(Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming
Just like my time alone

When I die you can't bury me
... women at my head and feet
You fold my arms across my chest
You tell me friends that I'm gone to rest

Yes, I'm coming
(Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming
(Yes, I'm coming)
Yes, I'm coming
Just like my time alone

When I'm dead right there in my grave
You're gonna be sorry
That you treat me like a slave
There ain't no one can take my place
You're gonna cry your blues away

Yes, I'm coming
Yes, I'm coming
Yes, I'm coming
Just like my time alone


5. HOW DEEP IS THE OCEAN

How can I tell you what is in my heart?
How can I measure each and every part?
How can I tell you how much I love you?
How can I measure just how much I do?

How much do I love you?
I'll tell you no lie
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?

How many times a day do I think of you?
How many roses are sprinkled with dew?

How far would I travel
To be where you are?
How far is the journey
From here to a star?

And if I ever lost you
How much would I cry?
How deep is the ocean?
How high is the sky?


6. MY VERY GOOD FRIEND THE MILKMAN

My very good friend the milkman says
That I've been losing to much sleep
He doesn't like the hours I keep
And he suggests that you should marry me

My very good friend the mailman says
That it would make his burden less
If we both had the same address
And he suggests that you should marry me.

Then there's a very friendly fellow who prints
All the latest real estate news
And every day he sends me blueprints
Of cottages with country views

My very good friends the neighbours say
That they've been watching little things I do
And they perceive that I love you
So I suggest that you should marry me.


7. CAN'T HOLD OUT MUCH LONGER

You know I'm just crazy about you baby,
Wonder, do you ever think of me.
You know I'm crazy about you baby,
But you don't care nothing in the world for me.

Well I can't sleep at night
I just cats nap through the day
I can't hold out much longer
Lord, living this way.

You know I'm just crazy about you baby,
Wonder, do you ever think of me.
You know I'm in love with you darling,
But you don't care nothing in the world for me.

Now there ain't but the one thing momma
That makes your daddy drink.
When you say that you don't love me,
Well lord I begin to think.

You know I'm just crazy about you baby,
Wonder, do you ever think of me.
You know I'm wild about you honey,
But you don't care nothing in the world for me.


8. THAT'S NO WAY TO GET LONG

I'm goin' home, friends, sit down and tell my, my mama
Friends, sit down and tell my mama
I'm goin' home, sit down and tell my mama
I'm goin' home, sit down and tell my mama
That that's no way to get along

These low-down women, mama, they treated your, ahw, poor son wrong
Mama, treated me wrong
These low-down women, mama, treated your poor son wrong
These low-down women, mama, treated your poor son wrong
And that's no way for him to get along

They treated me like my poor heart was made of a rock or stone
Mama, made of a rock or stone
Treated me like my poor heart was made of a rock or stone
Treated me like my poor heart was made of a rock or stone
And that's no way for me to get along

You know, that was enough, mama, to make your son wished he's dead and gone
Mama, wished I's dead and gone
That is enough to make your son, mama, wished he's dead and gone
That is enough to make your son, mama, wished he's dead and gone
'Cause that's no way for him to get along

I stood on the roadside, I cried alone, all by myself
I cried alone by myself
I stood on the roadside and cried alone by myself
I stood on the roadside and cried alone by myself
Cryin', "That's no way for me to get along"

I's wantin' some train to come along and take me away from here
Friends, take me away from here
Some train to come along and take me away from here
Some train to come along and take me away from here
And that's no way for me to get along


9. EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT

Same old hassle every night
All we do is fuss and fight
Ain't no use in talking, might as well start walking
Walking out into the night
You get your gun, I'll get mine
We can do it just one time
If we live no longer, it won't get no stronger
Then we'll know who's really right

All we do is weep and moan
Trying to build ourself a home
Ain't no shame in trying, ain't no use denying
Everything will be alright


10. DIAMONDS MADE FROM THE RAIN

The moment's come and gone
Every memory leaves a trace
All that I've come to know
In the lines upon my face

Every storm that I have turned
Each forgiveness I have earned
Every shame that's taught me grace
From you I have learned

No love is lost
No love is lost

That everything is shown to me
I let it wash over me
Like diamonds made of rain
You can find joy inside the pain

Everything that I've endured
For the wisdom of a pearl
I wouldn't change a thing
You can make diamonds from the rain

Every mile of this road
Every chord that's struck my soul
You are the melody
That will soothe me 'til I'm old

If the promises are kept
I'll waive all of my regrets
I can say I've overcome
With you, my heart is open

No love was lost
No love was lost

That everything is shown to me
I let it wash over me
Like diamonds made of rain
You can find joy inside the pain

Everything that I've endured
For the wisdom of a pearl
I wouldn't change a thing
You can make diamonds from the rain


11. WHEN SOMEBODY THINK YOU'RE WONDERFUL

When somebody thinks you're wonderful
What a difference in your day
Seems as though your troubles disappear
Like a feather in your way

When somebody thinks you're wonderful
Tells you with a smile so sweet
What are little stones you step on
Just a meadow 'neath your feet

And how you meet the morning
And gaily swing along
At night you may be weary
But your heart still sings a song

When somebody thinks you're wonderful
Love is mighty close to you
Just another thing more wonderful
Making all her dreams come true

And how you meet the morning
And gaily swing along
At night you may be weary
But your heart still sings a song

When somebody thinks you're wonderful
Love is mighty close to you
Just another thing more wonderful
Making all her dreams come true


12. HARD TIMES BLUES

Now it's hard time, baby, hard times everywhere I go
Hard times, baby, hard times everywhere I go
Now these people keep cryin' 'bout hard times, they comin' more and more

Now I don't even see what these poor people is going to do
Now I can't see what people, these poor people is going to do
Keep cryin' about these hard times and they coming more and more

Now I went to the factory this mornin' where I had worked ten years ago
And I went to the factory this mornin' where I had worked ten years ago
And the bossman told me that they ain't hirin' in here no more

Hard times, boy, and it's hard times everywhere I go
Hard times, boy, hard times everywhere I go
These people keep crying 'bout hard times and there's no work in here no more

Now if I was a bluebird, mama, had my trunk packed on my back
Hey if I was a bluebird, had my trunk packed on my back
I would fly away from this town, mama, and I'd swear I would never come back.


13. RUN BACK TO YOUR SIDE

'Fore the daylight catch me
I'll be moving on
'Fore the daylight catch me
I'll be moving on
I got nothing to lose, boy
All I had is gone

I should've know better
I should've hung around
I should've know better
I should've hung around
I had my head out of the window
Big beat on the ground

I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
You know that I miss you
Can't be satisfied

Well, I don't wanna be here
When the sun go down
I don't wanna be here
When the sun go down
Another day goin' nowhere
In this lonesome town

I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
Well, you know that I miss you
Can't be satisfied

I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
I'm gonna run
Run back to your side
But you know that I miss you
Can't be satisfied

'Fore the daylight catch me
I'll be moving on
'Fore the daylight catch me


14. AUTUMN LEAVES

The falling leaves drift by the window
The autumn leaves of red and gold
I see your lips, the summer kisses
The sun-burned hands I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall
