I Can't Keep From Cry Sometimes
I can't keep from crying sometimes
Momma she's dead and
gone
And I know I'm all alone
I can't keep from crying sometimes
Early
in the morning about the break of day
I fall down on my kness I fall down and
I pray
I think about my woman my woman who's long gone
I can't keep from
cry sometimes
I can't keep from crying sometimes
Momma she's dead and gone
And I know I'm all alone
I cant keep from crying sometimes
Later in the evening
I watch the sun go dowm
I think
about my woman
But my woman lord she ain't around
My heart is filled with
sadness
My eyes are filled with tears
I can't keep from cryin sometimes
all right
I can't keep from crying sometimes
Momma she's dead and gone
And I know I'm all alone
I cant keep from crying sometimes
Steve's Song
You can call me from a snow white, star lit stairway
I may
hear and not be far away at all
But the sounds of our winters love at night
time
They have vanished, they have silenced, into fall
You can crystalize
through my minds weary wanderings
I may see your shadowed image on my wall
As starring,
laughing, grieved by your indifference
I would rather feel the pain than none
at all
If again I really see your face before me
And we lie again together
side by side
Don't call me as I walk into the morning
Please just realize
that pure has often died
You can call me from a snow white, star lit stairway
I may hear, and not be far away at all.
But the sounds of our winters love at
night time
They have vanished, they have silenced, into fall
You Can't Catch Me
I bought a brand-new air-mobile
It custom-made, 'twas a
Flight De Ville
With a pow'ful motor and some hideaway wings
Push in on
the button and you will get a scene
Now you can't catch me, baby you can't catch me
'Cause if
you get too close, you know I'm gone like a cool breeze
New Jersey Turnpike in the wee wee hours
I was rollin' slow
because of drizzlin' showers
Here come a flat-top, he was movin' up with me
Then come wavin' goodbye a little' old souped-up jitney
I put my foot in my
tank and I began to roll
Moanin' siren, 'twas a state patrol
So I let out
my wings and then I blew my horn
Bye bye New Jersey, I'd be come and gone
Flyin' with my baby last Saturday night
Not a gray cloud
floatin' in sight
Big full moon shinin' up above
Cuddle up honey, be my
love
Sweetest little thing I've ever seen
I'm gonna name you Maybellene
Flyin' on the beam, set on flight control
Radio tuned to rock 'n' roll
Two, three hours have passed us by
I'll be 2 dropped to 5:05
Fuel
consumption way too fast
Let's get on home before we run out of gas
Two Trains Running
My mother told my father
Well before I was born
You got
a boy child coming
Sure is gonna be
He's gonna be
The boy will be a
rolling stone
I went to my baby's house
Well I fell down right on the
steps
She said come in come in Danny
Oh well my other man
Well well
well my other man
Don't you know my husband he just now left
I've been crazy
People I've even been a fool too
I've
been crazy most all of my life
I been in love people
Well with some other
mans
I'm with some other mans
I've been in love with some other man's wife
don't you know
My baby she's so long and tall
She moves just like a willow
tree
Well she's the one I love
She's is the very one
I do hate to
I
hate to lose I hate to lose
Oh baby
There are two two trains running
They're never going my way
Oh well the other one
Oh well the other one
Oh well the other ones runs at
the break of day
Of day
Of day
Wake Me, Shake Me
Walkin' down that long, lonesome road
They're tryin' to
make it in due time
Before the heaven doors close
They're tryin' to make
it in due time
Before the heaven doors close
Wake me shake me
Don't let me sleep too long
Try to make
it in due time
Before the heaven doors close
Try to make it in due time
Before the heaven doors close
Before... ow!
The heaven doors close!
Caress Me Baby
Caress me baby
Like the wind caress the trees
Caress
me baby
Like the wind caress the trees
I want you to love, love me baby
Like a soft, soft summer breeze
Down by the river
On a real moonlighted night
Down by
the river
On a real moonlighted night
I want to love, love you baby
Everything will be all righ
Fly Away
Deep within your heart you're sick
The feelin's gone - the
road's too slick
Your face has changed - it's rearranged
There's no way
out you cry
But I know better than ya do
The lies ya tell - they all
are true
About your trips through paper clips
You're hung up on the sky
Oh and though it's not for me to say
About the thoughts you
thought today
I can only promise you that everything I said is true
There's nothin left for you to do but fly....
Fly away and hope the sky enfolds you
Fly away don't say I
never told you
The clothes you wore you've burned them all
And naked now
it's hard to crawl
To find relief from pseudo-grief
The table's turnin'
fast
While tears of joy have turned to blood
You're sinkin
deeper in the mud
And the more ya scream it's just a dream
The darkness
comes at last
Oh and though it's not for me to say
About the thoughts you
thought today
I can only promise you that everything I said is true
There's nothin left for you to do but fly....
Fly away and hope the sky enfolds you
Fly away don't say I
never told you
