I Am Bound For The Promised Land

On Jordan's stormy banks I stand
And cast a wishful eye
To Canaan's fair and happy land
Where my possessions lie

I am bound for the promised land
I am bound for the promised land
Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land

O'er all those wide extended plains
Shine on eternal day
There God the Son forever reigns
And scatters night away

I am bound for the promised land
I am bound for the promised land
Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land

No chilling winds nor poisonous breath
Can reach that healthful shore
Sickness and sorrow, pain and death
Are felt and feared no more

I am bound for the promised land
I am bound for the promised land
Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land

When shall I reach that happy place
And be forever blessed?
When shall I see my Father's face
And in His bosom rest?

I am bound for the promised land
I am bound for the promised land
Oh, who will come and go with me?
I am bound for the promised land

Country roads

[Verse 1]
Almost Heaven, West Virginia

Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, growing like a breeze

[Chorus]
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

[Verse 2]
All my memories gather 'round her
Miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky
Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye

[Chorus]
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

[Vocal bridge]
I hear her voice in the morning hour, she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
Driving down the road, I get a feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

[Chorus]
Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

[Outro]
West Virginia, mountain mama
Take me home, country roads

Southern nights

[Verse 1]
Southern nights
Have you ever felt a Southern night?
Free as a breeze
Not to mention the trees
Whistlin' tunes that you know and love so

[Verse 2]
Southern nights
Just as good even when you, close your eyes
I apologize
To anyone who can truly say
He has found a better way

Bridge
[Verse 3]
Southern skies
Have you ever sought the Southern skies? (In Southern sky)
Its precious beauty, lies just beyond the eye
It goes runnin' through your soul
Like the stories told of old

[Verse 4]
Old man
He and his dog that walk the old land
Every flower in his cold hand
As he slowly walks by
Weepin' willows would cry for joy


[Verse 5]
Feels so good
Feels so good, it's frightening
Wish I could
Stop this world from fighting
La-da-da-da-da, la-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da

[Verse 6]
Mystery
Like this and many others in the trees
Blow in the night
In the Southern skies

[Verse 7]
Southern nights
They feel so good it's frightening
Wish I could (Southern nights)
Stop this world from fighting
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da, la-da-da
Da-DA-da, da-da-da-da-da-da

[Outro]

Your cheating heart. Hank and Loretta

Your cheatin' heart
will make you weep
You'll cry and cry
and try to sleep

But sleep won't come
the whole night through
Your cheatin' heart
will tell on you

When tears come down
like fallin' rain
You'll toss around
and call my name

You'll walk the floor
the way I do
Your cheatin' heart
will tell on you

Bridge
Your cheatin' heart
will pine someday
And crave the love
you threw away

The time will come
when you'll be blue
Your cheatin' heart
will tell on you

When tears come down
like fallin' rain
You'll toss around
and call my name

You'll walk the floor
the way I do
Your cheatin' heart
will tell on you

Your cheatin' heart (Tammy version)

Your cheatin' heart
will tell on you
You'll cry and cry
the whole night thru

You're gonna walk the floor
just the way I do
Your cheating heart
will tell on you

When tears come down
like falling rain
Your gonna toss around
and call my name

Your gonna walk the floor
just the way that I do
Your cheating heart
will tell on you

When tears come down
like falling rain
you're gonna toss around
and call my name

Your gonna walk the floor
just the way that I do
Your cheating heart
will tell on you

When the pale horse and his rider goes by

Listen poor sinner, you`re driftin` away
From the Dear Savior, who`s pleading to- day
What will you do, when the Savior ain`t nigh
When the Pale Horse, and his rider goes by

The time now ain`t long, when the Savior will come
Then you`ll be judged, by the deeds you have done
On that judgment day, you`ll weep and you`ll cry
When the Pale Horse, and his rider goes by

When that trumpet sounds, on the sinners below
Not even the angels, in heaven will know
It's then that you`ll wish, you had Jesus nigh
When the Pale Horse, and his rider goes by

Won`t you redeem, your poor wicked soul
You can`t pay your way, with Silver and Gold
If you`re not saved, you`ll be lost in the night
When the Pale Horse, and his rider goes by

The Glen of Aherlo

On a mountain, wild and eery
stood a brave young volunteer
By his side, his darling Mary
fondly ties his bandoleer

On his shoulder, she lay crying
Oh my love, please don't go
for I know that men are dying
in the Glen of Aherlo

I must go though I am hounded
from the home and the friends I know
for my comrades are surrounded
in the Glen of Aherlo

As he marched away to glory
to return she knew not when,
loud sounds told the story
of the fighting in the glen

And the sound of rifles firing
set her free young heart to fear
Mary breath-ed a prayer to heaven
for her brave young volunteer

I must go tho I am hounded
from the home and the friends I know
for my comrades are surrounded
in the Glen of Aherlo

On a mountain wild and eery
in the land he loved the best
his young comrades and his Mary
simply laid him down to rest

There a lonely watch was keeping
while her young heart cried its fill
For altho he lies a-sleeping,
far away she hears him still

I must go though I am hounded
from the home and the friends I know
for my comrades are surrounded
in the Glen of Aherlo

I must go though I am hounded
from the home and the friends I know
for my comrades are surrounded
in the Glen of Aherlo
