Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, let me stand
I am tired, I am weak and I am worn
Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the light

Take my hand
Precious Lord

"A House Without Love"

For years we both have lived on pride, dear
And we agree that love is gone
Why, oh why do we keep tryin'
A House Without Love is not a home.

The lovelight in your eyes has faded

Tonight down here in the valley
I’m lonesome and o how I feel
As I sit here alone in my cabin
I can see your mansion on the hill

Do you recall when we parted
The story to me you revealed
You said you could live without loving

Only a tramp was Lazarus sad fate
He who lay down at the rich mans gate
He begged for the crumbs from the rich man to eat
He was only a tramp found dead on the street
He was some mothers darlin'
He was some mothers son
Once he was fair and once he was young
And some mother rocked him, her darlin' to sleep

We met in the springtime when blossoms unfold
The pastures were green and the meadows were gold
Our love was in flower as summer grew on
Her love like the leaves now has withered and gone.

The roses have faded, there's frost at my door
The birds in the morning don't sing any- more
The grass in the valley is starting to die

In the great book of John you're warned of the day
When you'll be laid beneath the cold clay
The angel of death will come from the sky
And claim your poor soul when the time comes to die

When the angel of death comes down after you
Can you gladly say that you have been true
For you'll have to go all the way by yourself

If [C] you're lovin' me like I'm lovin' you
Baby, We're Really In [G7] Love
If you're happy with me like I'm happy with you
Old Cupid just gave us a shove [C]
If you're thinkin' of me like I'm thinkin' of you

When you've strayed from the fold
And there's trouble in your soul
Can't you hear the blessed savior callin' you?
When your soul is lost in sin
And you're at your journey's end
Can't you hear the blessed savior callin' you?

[Chorus]

I tried so hard my dear to show that youre my every dream.
Yet youre afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme
A memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart
Why cant I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart

Another love before my time made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is paying now for things I didnt do
In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops start

All day I've faced the barren waste
With out the taste of water... cool, water.
Ole Dan and I, with throats burned dry,
and souls that cry
for water... cool, clear water.

The nights are cool and I'm a fool.
Each star's a pool of water... cool, clear water.

Well when I woke up this mornin'
There was a note upon my door
Said don't make me no coffee babe
'Cause I won't be back no more
And that's all she wrote, Dear John
I've sent your saddle home

Now Jonah got along in the belly of the whale

If you're worryin' over me like I've worried over you
Don't do it darlin', don't do it darlin'
If you think I'm missin' you and I'm missin' kissin' you
Don't do it darlin', don't do it darlin'

I gave my heart to you my dear and trusted you and then
You took my heart and played with it and now you say we're through
If you think I'm all alone and you feel the urge to phone

Tempted and tried we're oft made to wonder why it should be thus all the day long
While there are others living about us never molested though in the wrong
Farther along we'll know all about it farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine we'll understand it all by and by

When we see Jesus coming in glory when he comes from his home in the sky
Then we shall meet him in that bright mansion we'll understand it all by and by
Farther along

"First Year Blues"

Now I've been married about six months,
Only six months you see,
The first three months, was all OK,
But the last three is killin' me,
My wife began her hissin', cut down on her kissin',
And then she failed to shine my shoes,

Hey, hey, goоd lооkin',
Whatcha got coоkin'?
How's abоut coоkin' somethin' up with me?
Hey, sweet baby,
Dоn't you think maybe
We could find us a brand new recipe?
I got a hоt-rod Fоrd and a twо-dоllar bill
And I know a spot right оver the hill.

[E]Well I left my home down on the rural route
I told my paw Iâm going steppin out and get the
[A7] Honky tonk blues, hey the honky tonk [E] blues
Hey [B7] lord I got em, I got the ho-on-ky tonk [E] blues

Îell I went to a dance and I wore out my shoes
woke up this mornin wishin I could lose
them jumpin [A7] honky tonk blues, hey the honky tonk [E]blues

Words and music by hank williams, sr.

When [g] you are sad and lonely and have no place to go

Call me up, sweet baby, and bring along some dough

And well go honky tonkin, honky tonkin

I can't get you off of my mind
When I try, I'm just wastin' my time
Lord, I've tried and I've tried and all night long I've cried
But I can't get you off of my mind

Well, you think you would leave me behind
But I guess you're the good timin' kind
Do you think that it's smart to jump from heart to heart

Ever' time I see her passin' by,
All I do is hang my head and cry,
And I can`t forget her tho I try,
All I do is hang my head and cry.

Oh, I know not how to ease my mind,
Since she left a world of love be - hind,
Ever' time I see her passin' by,

For years I've lived without a meaning
I've lost faith in dreams somehow
I'm so sick and tired of scheming
I guess it just don't matter now.

All my life I've been a loser
It seems that fate has made a vow
That I will never know contentment

Goodbye, Joe, me gotta go, me oh my oh.
Me gotta go, pole the pirogue down the bayou.
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh my oh.
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou.

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
'cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio.
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gayo,

Kaw-Liga was a wooden Indian standin' by the door
He fell in love with an Indian maiden over in the antique store
Kaw-Liga well he just stood there and never let it show
So she could never answer yes or no
Poor ol' Kaw-Liga well he never got a kiss
Poor ol' Kaw-Liga he don't know what he missed
Is it any wonder that his face is red Kaw-Liga that poor ol' wooden head

I went down to the river to watch the fish swim by
But I got to the river so lonesome I wanted to die, oh Lord!
And then I jumped in the river, but the doggone river was dry.
She's long gone, and now I'm lonesome blue.

I had me a woman who couldn't be true.
She made me for my money and she made me blue.
A man needs a woman that he can lean on,

Im a rolling stone all alone and lost
For a life of sin I have paid the cost
When I pass by all the people say
Just another guy on the lost highway

Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine
And a womans lies makes a life like mine
O the day we met, I went astray

Lost On The River, Dark Is The Night
Just Like The Blind, Praying For Site
Drifting Alone, Heart Filled With Fright
I'm lost On The River The River Of Life

(mandolin instrumental)

Once Dear I Thought I Knew The Way

I got a feelin' called the blu-ues, oh, Lawd
Since my baby said goodbye
And I don't know what I'll do-oo-oo
All I do is sit and sigh-igh, oh, Lawd
That last long day she said goodbye
Well Lawd I thought I would cry
She'll do me, she'll do you, she's got that kind of lovin'
Lawd, I love to hear her when she calls me

If the wife and I are fussin'

Brother that's our right

'Cause me and that sweet woman's

Got a license to fight

I could say it`s over now
That I was glad to see you go
I could hate you for the way I`m feelin`
My lips could tell a lie, but My Heart Would Know.

It`s a sin to make me cry
When you know I love you so
I could tell my heart that I don`t miss you

Tonight my head is bowed in sorrow
I can't keep the tears from my eyes
My son calls another man daddy
The right to his love I've been denied

My son calls another man daddy
He'll never know my name nor my face
God only knows, how it hurts me

No one will ever know my heart is breaking
Although a million teardrops start to flow
I’ll cry myself to sleep and wake up smiling
I’ll miss you but no one will ever know

I’ll tell them we grew tired of each other
And realized our dreams could never be
I’ll even make believe I never loved you

Oh, please don't let me love you
Just because I'm feelin' blue
And please don't let me kiss you
'Cause I know you'll be untrue

Because you're a sweet dear, I want to love you
Please stay away from my heart
And please don't let me love you

I can [am] settle dow-own and be doin’ just fine
Til I [e7] hear an old train rollin’ down the [am] line
Then I hurry strai-aight home and pack
And if I [e7] didn’t go, I believe I’d blow my [am] stack
I love you ba-aby, but you gotta understand
When the [e7] lord made me
He made a ramblin’ [am] man.

There's comin' a day when the world shall melt away
And Jesus shall come to claim His own
No more tears, no pain, no woe, in this wicked world below
Then will you be ready to go home?

Will you be ready to go, ready to go home
To live with Him up there around the throne
When He says, "Come unto Me", will your soul be clean and free?

Rockin' chair money

Now I got rockin' chair money
But I got it the hard, hard way
I fought in every battle
From the start to the VJ day

Now I'll rock, yeah, rock

Someday you'll call my name and I wont answer
Someday you'll tired of all the love I gave you
But some- day you'll wish that I still care.

all these years how Ive loved you
Still I know I claim you for my own
Someday you'll call my name and I wont answer
For some- day you'll find yourself a- lone.

Swing wide your gate of love, open wide up your heart
I knew when I first met you that you'd be my sweetheart
Swing wide your gate of love and please don't let me fall
I know you're gonna love me after all

Swing wide the gate and leave it open
Towards the center of your heart I'll be bound
And I'll mend the heart that has been broken

Her eyes were blue, her hair was auburn
Her smile was like an angel fair
She was her daddy’s only daughter
On the tennessee border

Chorus
One night I took a ride just across the line
I picked her up in a pickup truck

You were there in my arms alone in the moonlight
The trees played the waltz of the wind
It was there that I knew, I'd love you forever
We danced to the waltz of the wind

The stars up above you looked down in your eyes
And told me the night would never end
Now I'm dreaming of you till we meet tomorrow

There's a tear in my beer
'Cause I'm cryin' for you, dear
You are on my lonesome mind
Into these last nine beers
I have shed a million tears
You are on my lonely mind

I'm gonna keep drinkin' until I'm petrified

Too many parties and too many pals will break your heart someday
Too many boyfriends and sociable sals may drive your sweetheart away
Gentlemen of the jury the judge's speech began
The scene was a crowded courtroom and the judge a stern old man
This prisoner here before you is a social enemy
A lady of the evening and you know the penalty
Her eyes reflect the nightlife her cheeks they're red with paint
But I knew her mother gentlemen why her mother was a saint

Why should I cry, I never done you wrong
I kept my vows, you left me all alone
You told me you loved me, you told me a lie
Why should I pay, tell me why should I cry?

You knew I worshipped you right from the start
I gave you my love, never thought that we'd part
You didnt care enough to even say goodbye

What's the use to deny we've been living a lie
That we should have admitted before
We were just victims of a half-hearted love
So why should we try anymore

The vows that we make are only to break
We drift like a wave from the shore
The kisses we steal we know are not real

[c] though our paths in life have parted
You no [f] longer care for me but when you're [c] happy with another
Won't you [g] sometimes think of [c] me

[c] when the evenin' sun is sinking
[f] down behind the trees and the [c] moon is slowly rising
Won't you [g] sometimes think of [c] me
