Down south the banjos cry to
Everybody who's sayin' hidie-hi to
While the moonbeams danced on the bayou
That's how rhythm was born

They praised the Mighty Forgiver
They washed their sins in the river
Cold water made 'em all shiver
That's how rhythm was born

Folks came down and gathered round
That old Swanee shore
Caught the craze and sang His praise
They all cried, "Why don't cha gimme some more?"

Down south the banjos cry to

That's how rhythm was born

Down south the banjos cry to
Everybody who's singin' hidie-hi to
While the moonbeams danced on the bayou
That's just how rhythm was born

They praised the Mighty Forgiver
They washed their sins in the river
Cold water, well it made them wanna shiver
And that's how rhythm was born

Folks came down and gathered round
That old Swanee shore
Caught the craze and sang His praise
And cried, "Come on, give me some more"

You can ask anyone, sir
They'll answer we'll be over yonder
That's how rhythm was born

Banjos cry to
Don't they hidie-hi to
Dance on the bayou
And that's just the reason that rhythm was born

Praise and forgive 'em
Washed their sins in the river
Cold water makes 'em all shiver
And that's just the reason that rhythm was born

Folks came down and gathered around
That Swanee shore
Caught the craze, sang His praise
They all cried, "Why don't cha gimme some more?"

Ask you anyone, sir
And they'd be glad to answer you, sir
They'll answer we'll be over yonder
And that's just the reason that rhythm was born
That's how rhythm was born

Hear the lonesome whiperwill
He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whinning low
I'm so lonesome I could cry

I've never seen a night so long
When time goes crawling by
The moon just went behind a cloud
To hide its face and cry

Did you ever see a robin weep
When leaves begin to die
That means hes lost the will to live
I'm so lonesome i could cry

The silence of a falling star
Lights up a purple sky
And as i wonder where you are
I'm so lonesome I could cry

Women be wise,
keep your mouth shut,
don't advertise
your man
Don't sit
around gossiping,
explaining
what your good man
really can do
Some women nowadays,
Lord they ain't no good
They will laugh
in your face,
Then try to steal
your man from you
Women be wise,
keep your mouth shut,
don't advertise your man

Your best girlfriend,
she might be a highbrow,
she changes clothes
3 times a day
What do you think
she's doing now,
while you're so far away
She's loving your man
in your own damn bed
You better call
for the doctor,
mama,
try to investigate
your head
Women be wise,
keep your mouth shut,
don't advertise your man

Women be wise,
keep your mouth shut,
don't advertise your man
Don't sit around,
girl,
telling all your secrets,
Telling all those good things
he really can do
If you talk about your baby,
you tell me he's so fine
Lord honey,
I just might sneek up
and try to make him mine
Women be wise,
keep your mouth shut,
don't advertise your man

Don't be no fool,
don't advertise your man
(baby don't do it)

You went away and left me long ago
And now you're knocking on my door

I hear you knocking
But you can't come in
I hear you knocking
Go back where you've been

Well, I begged you not to go but you said goodbye
And now you're telling me all your lies

I hear you knocking
But you can't come in
I hear you knocking
Go back where you've been, well

You better get back to your used-to-be
'Cause your kind of love ain't good for me

I hear you knocking
But you can't come in
Yes, I hear you knocking
Go back where you've been

I told you way back in '92
That I would never stay with you

I hear you knocking
But you can't come in
Oh, no, I hear you knocking
Go back where you've been

Well, I hear you knocking
But you can't come in
I hear you knocking
Go back where you've been

I'll just keep on falling in love
Till I get it right
Right now I'm like a wounded bird
Hungry for the sky

If I try my wings and try long enough
I'm bound to learn to fly
So I'll just keep on falling in love
Till get it right

My door to love has opened out
More times than in
And I'm either fool or wise enough
To open it again

'Cause I'll never know what's beyond this mountain
Till I reach the other side
So I'll just keep on falling in love
Till I get it right

If practice makes perfect
Then I'm near 'bout as perfect as I'll ever be in my life
So I'll just keep on falling in love
Till I get it right

So I'll just keep on falling in love
Till I get it right

I wish a buck was still silver, it was back when the country was strong
Back before Elvis, before the Vietnam War came along
Before The Beatles and 'Yesterday' a man could still work and still would
Is the best of the free life behind us now?
Are the good times really over for good?

Are we rolling downhill like a snowball headed for hell?
With no kind of chance for the flag or the Liberty Bell
Wish a Ford and a Chevy could still last ten years like they should
Is the best of the free life behind us now?
Are the good times really over for good?

I wish coke was still cola and a joint was a bad place to be
Back before Nixon lied to us all on TV
Before microwave ovens when a girl could still cook and still would
Is the best of the free life behind us now?
Are the good times really over for good?

Are we rolling downhill like a snowball headed for hell?
With no kind of chance for the flag or the Liberty Bell
Wish a Ford and a Chevy could still last ten years like they should
Is the best of the free life behind us now?
Are the good times really over for good?

So stop rolling downhill like a snowball headed for hell
Let's stand up for the flag and let's all ring the Liberty Bell, amen
We're makin' Fords and Chevy's to last ten years like they should
The best of the free life is still yet to come
The good times ain't over for good

Well, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah the house is a rockin', don't bother, come on in

Kick off your shoes, start losin' the blues
This old house ain't got nothin' to lose
Seen it all for years, start spreadin' the news
We got room on the floor, come on baby, shake somethin' loose

Well, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother, come on in

Well, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother, come on in

Walkin' up the street, you can hear the sound
Of some bad honky tonkers, really layin' it down
They've seen it all for years and got nothin' to lose
So get out on the floor, shimmy 'til you shake somethin' loose

Well, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother knockin'
Yeah, the house is a rockin', don't bother, come on in
I said, the house is a rockin', don't bother, come on in

Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
It's not warm when he's away
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And he's always gone too long
Anytime he goes away

I wonder this time where he's gone
I wonder how long he's gonna stay
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime he goes away

But ain't no sunshine when he's gone
Only darkness everyday
Ain't no sunshine when he's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime he goes away

And I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

I know when he's gone
He's always gone too long
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Anytime he goes away
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Well, I can wash out forty-four pair of socks
And hang 'em on the line
You know I can starch and iron two dozen shirts
'Fore you can count from one to nine

Well, I can scoop up a great big dipper
Full of lard from a dripping's can
Throw it in the skillet, do my shopping
And be back before it melts in the pan

'Cause I'm a woman, W O M A N
(She's a woman, she's a woman)
Let me tell you again, I'm a woman, W O M A N
(Woman, she's a woman)

Well, I can rub and scrub
Till this house shines just like a dime
I feed the baby, I grease the car
And powder my nose at the same time

I can get all dressed up
Go out and swing till 4 a.m.
Lay down at five, jump up at six
And start all over again

'Cause I'm a woman, W O M A N
(She's a woman, she's a woman)
Let me tell you again, 'cause I'm a woman, W O M A N
(Woman, she's a woman)

Well, now if you come to me sickly
You know I'm a gonna make you well
And If you come to me all hexed up
You know I'm gonna break the spell

And if you come to me hungry
You know I'll feed you full of my grits
And if it's lovin' you want
I can kiss you and give you the shivering fits

Oh, let me in, let me do it again
(Woman, she's a woman)
'Cause I'm a woman, W O M A N
(Woman, oh she's a woman)

Well, I got a twenty dollar gold piece
Says there ain't nothin' I can't do
So I can make a man out of you

'Cause I'm a woman, W O M A N
(Woman, she's a woman)
Let me tell you again, I'm a woman, W O M A N
(Woman, she's a woman)

And that's all, that's all, that's all
What more do you want?
What more do you need?
'Cause I'm a woman, satisfaction guaranteed

Anyone who ever loved could look at me
And know that I love you
Anyone who ever dreamed could look at me
And know I dream of you

Knowing I love you

So anyone who had a heart
Would take me in his arms and love me, too
Couldn't really have a heart and hurt me
Like you hurt me and be so untrue, what am I to do?

Every time you go away I always say
This time it's goodbye dear
Loving you the way I do I take you back
Without you I'd die, dear

Knowing I love you

So anyone who had a heart
Would take me in his arms and love me, too
You couldn't really have a heart and hurt me
Like you hurt me and be so untrue, so what can I do?

Knowing I love you

So anyone who had a heart
Would take me in his arms and love me too
You couldn't really have a heart and hurt me
Like you hurt me and be so untrue

Anyone who had a heart would love me too, yes
Anyone who had a heart would love me too
Anyone who had a heart would love me too
Anyone who had a heart would love me too, love me too
Anyone who had a heart would love me too

When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love

In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seems to cool in the warmth of the sun

When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart
And in the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you

And in the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love, is when I fall in love
Is when I fall in love with you, with you, with you

It's in the wind, the noise and steam
Beneath your skin and in your dream
It's who you are, it's how you feel
Your guiding star, your driving wheel

Sing
Let it take you
Let it bend you never break you down

Sing
Let it mold you
Make you bold and never hold you down
Sing your heart out

It's on the street, the neon glare
The hard concrete, the cold night air
It's in your voice, the way you sound
You have no choice but come unwound

Sing
Your songs of truth and pain
All the things you can't explain

Sing
The way you feel inside
Let the music be your guide
Sing your heart out

Sing it like you hear it
Like you have no need to fear it now
Sing it like you know it
Like you're not afraid to show us how

Sing from somewhere way down deep
Sing and make the angels weep
Sing and open heaven's door
Sing 'til you can't sing no more

Sing
Your songs of dark and light
Make your mark with all your might

Sing
Your songs of hope and fear
Sing the song that sent you here
Sing your heart out

Sing, sing, sing your heart out
Sing, sing your heart out
