Sittin' on the front porch on a summer afternoon
In a straightback chair on two legs, leans against the wall Watch the kids a' playin' with June bugs on a string And chase the glowin' fireflies when evenin' shadows fall Chorus: In my Tennessee mountain home Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh In my Tennessee mountain home Crickets sing in the fields near by Honeysuckle vine clings to the fence along the lane Their fragrance makes the summer wind so sweet And on a distant hilltop, an eagle spreads its wings An' a songbird on a fence post sings a melody Repeat Chorus Walkin' home from church on a Sunday with the one ya' love Just laughin', talkin', making future plans And when the folks ain't lookin', you might steal a kiss or two Sittin' in the porch swing, holdin' hands Repeat Chorus |

Mama never seemed to miss the finer things in life
if she did, she never did say so to daddy she never wanted to be more than a mother and a wife if she did, she never did say so to daddy the only thing that seemed to be inportant in her life was to make a house a home and to make us happy Mama never wanted anymore than what she had if she did, she never did say so to daddy He often left her alone, she didn't mind the stayin' home if she did, she never did say so to daddy and she never missed the flowers and the cards he never sent her if she did, she never did say so to daddy being took for granted was a that thing she accepted and she didn't need those things to make her happy and she didn't seem to notice that he didn't kiss and hold her if she did, she never did say so to daddy One morning we awoke just to find a note Mama carefully wrote and left to daddy and as he began to read it out ears could not beleive it the words she had written there to daddy she said, "the kids are old enough, they don't need me very much I've gone in search for love I need so badly I have needed you so long but I just can't keep holding on" she never meant to come back home if she did, she never did say so to daddy Good-bye to daddy |

Love is like a butterfly
As soft and gentle as a sigh The multicolored moods of love are like its satin wings Love makes your heart feel strange inside It flutters like soft wings in flight Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing I feel it when you're with me It happens when you kiss me That rare and gentle feeling that I feel inside Your touch is soft and gentle Your kiss is warm and tender Whenever I am with you I think of butterflies Love is like a butterfly The multicolored moods of love are like its satin wings Love makes your heart feel strange inside It flutters like soft wings in flight Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing Your laughter brings me sunshine Everyday is spring time And I am only happy when you are by my side How precious is this love we share How very precious, sweet and rare Together we belong like daffodils and butterflies Love is like a butterfly As soft and gentle as a sigh The multicolored moods of love are like its satin wings Love makes your heart feel strange inside It flutters like soft wings in flight Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing Love is like a butterfly, a rare and gentle thing |

Here you come again
Just when I've begun to get myself together You waltz right in the door Just like you've done before And wrap my heart 'round your little finger Here you come again Just when I'm about to make it work without you You look into my eyes And lie those pretty lies And pretty soon I'm wonderin' how I came to doubt you All you got to do is smile that smile And there go all my defenses Just leave it up to you and in a little while You're messin' up my mind and fillin' up my senses Here you come again Lookin' better than a body has a right to And shakin' me up so That all I really know Is here you come again And here I go All you got to do is smile that smile And there go all my defenses Just leave it up to you and in a little while You're messin' up my mind and fillin' up my senses Here you come again Lookin' better than a body has a right to And shakin' me up so That all I really know Is here you come again And here I go Here I go And here I go And here I go Here you come again And here I go Here I go And here I go Here I go |

You might wake up some morning
To the sound of something moving past your window in the wind And if you're quick enough to rise You'll catch the fleeting glimpse of someone's fading shadow Out on the new horizon You may see the floating motion of a distant pair of wings And if the sleep has left your ears You might hear footsteps running through an open meadow Don't be concerned, it will not harm you It's only me pursuing something I'm not sure of Across my dreams, with nets of wonder I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love You might have heard my footsteps Echo softly in the distance through the canyons of your mind I might have even called your name As I ran searching after something to believe in You might have seen me runnin' Through the long abandonned ruins of the dreams you left behind If you remember something there That glided past you followed close by heavy breathing Don't be concerned, it will not harm you It's only me pursuing something I'm not sure of Across my dreams, with nets of wonder I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love Across my dreams, with nets of wonder I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love Across my dreams, with nets of wonder I chase the bright elusive butterfly of love |

My life is likened to a bargain store
And I may have just what you're looking for If you don't mind the fact that all the merchandise is used With a little mending it could be as good as new Why you take for instance this old broken heart If you will just replace the missing part You would be surprised to find how good it really is Take it and you never will be sorry that you did (chorus) The bargain store is open, come inside You can easily afford the price Love is all you need to purchase all the mechandise And I can guarantee you'll be completely satisfied Take these old used memories from the past And these broken dreams and plans that didn't last I'll trade them for a future, I can't use them anymore I've wasted love, but I still have some more (chorus) My life is likened to a bargain store And I may have just what you're looking for If you don't mind the fact that all the merchandise is used With a little mending it could be as good as new The bargain store is open, come inside... |

I found out the hard way And I'm never gonna break your heart I know, too late And I don't want to break your heart Guess I had to go away just to find What I left behind You're the only one You're the only one Take me back To where we started from And let's make it now Like we made it then This ol' heart ain't gonna break your heart again Nights I lay in bed And your covers wouldn't warm my feet And morning found me Bitter or a bit too sweet Oh baby, I had to go away Just to run back and say You're the only one You're the only one Take me back To where we started from Can we make it now Like we made it then This ol' heart ain't gonna break your heart again You're the only one darlin' They'll never be anyone else but you I love you so much You are my love, you've become my life And I never meant to break your heart But, sometimes, you just got to go away To find what you left behind You're the only one You're the only one Take me back To where we started from Can we make it now Like we make it then This ol' heart ain't gonna break your heart again You're the only one You're the only one You're the only one The only one So take me back To where we started from You're the only one The only one You're the only one You 're the only one The only one Take me back To where we started from You're the only one The only one You're the only one You're the only one The only one |

Momma moved out
Daddy sold the house They split up the money And went on their way And all the king's horses And all the king's men Couldn't put mommy and daddy back together again Chorus: Starting over again Where should they begin 'Cause they've never been out on their own Starting over again Where do you begin When your dreams are all shattered And the kids are all grown And the whole world cries Got an apartment She moved in with her sisters He's scheming big deals with one of his friends While she sits at home Just sorting out pieces Of left over memories From thirty odd years 2nd Chorus: Starting over again Where do you begin You've never been out on your own Starting over again Never any end What will the neighbors say? They're talking talk, its small town news Facing fifty years old Making up a happy home And this far down the road You find yourself alone Two fools 3rd Chorus: Starting over again Now where do you begin When you've never been out on your own Starting over again Never any end When your dreams are all shattered And the kids are all grown And all the king's horses And all the king's men Could never put mommy and daddy back together Back together, again |

Well a good way down the rail-road track,
There was this little old run down shack And in it lived a man I'd never se-e-e-een Folk said he was a mean and a vicious man And you'd better not set foot on his land But I didn't think nobody could be that mean So I took me out walking down the rail-road track I was gonna go down to that little old shack An' just find out if all them things I'd heard was true There was a big black dog laying out in the yard And he growled at me and I swallowed hard And I heard somebody say" well, who are you?" Ooh and there he stood in the door of that shack And his beard and his hair was long and black And he was the biggest man I ever seen when he spoke his voice was low and deep but he just didnt frighten me cause somehow i just knew he wasnt mean he said " what yuh doing snooping round my place" and i saw a smile come across his face so i smiled back and i told him who i was He said " come on in, pull you up a chair, You might as well since you're already here" And he said " you can call me joshua" joshua joshua what you doing living here all alone joshua joshua aint you got nobody to call your own no no no no we talked till the sun was clean out of sight and we still talked when it come daylight there was just so much we had to say i spent my life in an orphans home and just like him i was all alone so i said"yeah" when he asked if i'd stay ooh we grew close as time went on and that little ole shack it was a happy home and we just couldn't help but fall in love that big black dog and that little ole shack sitting down by the railroad track its plenty good enough for me and joshua joshua joshua why your just what i've been a looking for joshua joshua you aint gonna be lonesome anymore oh no "country yodelling" me and joshua me and joshua me and joshua |
