Standing by the highway suitcase by my side No place I want to go, I just thought I'd catch a ride Many people look my way and many pass me by In moments of reflection, I wonder why To the thieves I am a bandit, the mothers think I'm a son To the preachers I'm a sinner, Lord, I'm not the only one 2. I had a friend who was a big baseball player back in high school He could throw that speedball by you Make you look like a fool boy Saw him the other night at this roadside bar I was walking in and he was walking out We went back inside sat down, had a few drinks but all he kept talking about was... 3. I loved you since I knew ya I wouldn't talk down to ya I have to tell you just how I feel I won't share you with another boy I know my mind is made up So put away your make up Told you once I won't tell you again it's a bad way 4. Wake up Maggie I think I've got something to say to you. It's late September and I really should be back at school. I know I keep you amused, but I feel I'm being used. Oh Maggie I couldn`t have tried any more. You lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone. You stole my heart, and that's what really hurts. 5. Jeremiah was a bullfrog Was a good friend of mine I never understood a single word he said But I helped him drink his wine And he always had some mighty fine wine 6. I was cutting the rug Down at a place called "The Jug" With a girl named Linda Lu When in walked a man With a gun in his hand And he was looking for you know who. He said, "Hey there fellow with the hair colored yellow. Whatcha trying to prove? "Cause that's my woman there And I'm a man who cares, And this might be all for you!" 7. Tonight with words unspoken You say that I'm the only one But will my heart be broken When the night meets the morning sun? I'd like to know that your love Is love I can be sure of So tell me now, and I won't ask again 8. "There must be some way out of here," said the joker to the thief, "There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief. Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth, None of them along the line know what any of it is worth." "No reason to get excited," the thief, he kindly spoke, "There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke. But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate, So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late." 9. Come on go with me, babe Come on go with me, girl Baby, lets go To the cabin down below I got a radio Put it on soft and low Baby, lets go To the cabin down below 10. There's a sign on the wall But she wants to be sure 'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings. In a tree by the brook There's a songbird who sings, Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven. Ooh, it makes me wonder, Ooh, it makes me wonder. 11. Mary Anne and Wanda were the best of friends All through thier high school days Both members of the 4H club Both active in the FFA After graduation Mary Anne went out lookin' for a bright new world Wanda looked all around this town And all she found was... 12. Blame it all on my roots I showed up in boots And ruined your black tie affair The last one to know The last one to show I was the last one You thought you'd see there And I saw the surprise And the fear in his eyes When I took his glass of champagne And I toasted you Said, honey, we may be through But you'll never hear me complain 13. On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim I had to stop for the night There she stood in the doorway; I heard the mission bell And I was thinking to myself, 'This could be Heaven or this could be Hell' Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way There were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say...
