2. _ Busted
Well, the bills are all due and the babies needs shoes, we're busted
We've had a hard time since they closed down the mines, we're busted
Got a cow that's gone dry and a hen that won't lay
A big stack of bills that get bigger each day
Tomorrow they'll haul our belongings away, we're busted
Well, our friends are all leavin' this ol' mining town, we're busted
They're headin' up north where there's work to be found and trusted
Lord, I hate to give up this acre of land
It's been in the family since minin' began
But babies get hungry, they don't understand we're busted
We're busted, yes, we're busted
We're headin' up north and we ain't coming back, we're busted
I called brother John, thought I'd ask for a loan, we was busted
Lord, I had to beg like a dog for a bone, but we're busted
Brother John lost his job and his rent's overdue
His wife and his kids are all down with the flu
He said, "I was thinkin' of callin' on you, I'm busted"
Lord no, my old man's no thief, but a good man turns bad when he's busted
My babies ain't well and it's drivin' me mad 'cause we're busted
Gonna sell that ol' Guernsey and give up this shack
Come on now children, help mama get packed
We're headin' up north and we ain't comin' back, we're busted
We're busted, yes we're busted
We're headin' up north and we ain't coming back, we're busted

3. _ Half Over You
I've seen rock bottom
And I've sailed to the top
Now I'm somewhere in between
Believe that it's over
But sometimes still blue
There's no place so lonely
As bein' half over you
And I don't feel much like climbin'
And I don't want to fall
Here in the middle I don't feel much at all
I've almost excepted the fact that we're through
And there's no place so lonely
As being half over you
I wasn't as bad off
When first you were gone
Misery kept me company
Then I remember the heights
We've been to
There's no place so lonely
As being half over you
And I don't feel much like climbin'
And I don't want to fall
Here in the middle I don't feel much at all
I've almost excepted the fact that we're through
And there's no place so lonely
As being half over you
There's no place so lonely
As being half over you...

4. _ Blue Memories
When I close my eyes
I almost see
The way you look
When you were standing next to me
And I still feel you holdin' me tight
Oh I can hear the laughter
And all the words you whispered in the night
Picture this and paint it blue
A photograph of me and you
Smile has faded with the years
Washed away by all the tears
And when I look
All I see are blue memories
Oh how I remember the time
There was love in your heart
And that love was mine
If I could turn it all 'round again
We'd be lying side by side
And things would be the way
They were back then
Picture this and paint it blue
A photograph of me and you
Smile has faded with the years
Washed away by all the tears
And when I look
All I see are blue memories
Picture this and paint it blue
A photograph of me and you
Smile has faded with the years
Washed away by all the tears
And when I look
All I see are blue memories
Blue memories
Blue memories

5. _ Handful of Dust
Break us down by our elements
And you might think He failed
We're not copper for one penny or
Even iron for one nail
And a dollar would be plenty to buy twenty of us
Until true love is added to these handfuls of dust
Handful of dust, handful of dust
Sums up the richest and poorest of us
True love makes priceless the worthless
Whenever it's added to a handful of dust
However small though our worth may be
When shared between two hearts
Is even more than it would ever be
Measured on it's own, apart
And our half what it could be is now twice what it was
When true love is added to these handfuls of dust
Handful of dust, handful of dust
Sums up the richest and poorest of us
True love makes priceless the worthless
Whenever it's added to a handful of dust
Handful of dust, handful of dust
Sums up the richest and poorest of us
True love makes priceless the worthless
Whenever it's added to a handful of dust

7. _ Bramble and the Rose
We've been so close together
Each a candle, each a flame
All the dangers were outside us
And we knew them all by name
Now see how the bramble and the rose intertwines
Now love grows like the bramble and the rose
Often cruel, often kind
Now, I've hurt you and it hurts me
Just to see what we can do
To ourselves and to each other
Without really meaning to
Now see how the bramble and the rose intertwines
Now love grows like the bramble and the rose
'Round each other they will wind
So put your arms around me
Yes, and sing a true love song
One that we can sing together
That will last the whole night long
So see how the bramble and the rose intertwines
Love grows like the bramble and the rose
'Round each other we will wind
Now love grows like the bramble and the rose

8. _ Fools Thin Air
There's a sweet dream on your pillow
There's a sad song in your eyes
There's a sunshine behind a dark cloud
Up above you in fools thin air
She's an old friend
She's a good friend
Hair of golden, eyes of satin
She's a won't be long friend
'Til she's gone and leaves you hangin'
In fools thin air
Like a lion rules the jungle
You're just flyin' through fools thin air
That don't mean nothin' when you've got something
That you believe in to get you there
She's an old friend
She's a good friend
Hair of golden, eyes of satin
She's a won't be long friend
'Til she's gone and leaves you hangin'
In fools thin air
She'll leave you hangin'
In fools thin air

9. _ Prisoner's Tears
A prisoner cries in the dark of his cell
He knows the price of livin' in hell
Nobody sees, nobody hears
But nothin' falls as hard as a prisoner's tears
I've never been locked behind walls of stone
But I've been a prisoner deep down in my bones
No judge and no jury but the sentence is clear
And nothin' falls as hard as a prisoner's tears
Counting the days, wonderin' when
This prisoner's heart will finally mend
Counting the days, wonderin' when
This prisoner's heart will finally mend
They say I'm free now but they can't feel my pain
They don't see my shackles but I'm livin' in chains
Love made the walls, love keeps me here
Well, nothin' falls as hard as a prisoner's tears
Nothin' falls as hard as a prisoner's tears
A prisoner cries in the dark of his cell

10. _ When the Last Curtain Falls
Even though it still hurts from the words that you threw at me
There's no pleasure at all from watching you fall to your knees
'Cause the tables have turned and I'm finally learnin'
To live, forgive and let go
There's no sweet revenge
At love's angry end
And we all need to know
When the last curtain falls with a final goodbye
And the bitter cold darkness of night
Floods the days of our lives
With a silence so loud we can't feel at all
There's no reason or cause
To cheer or applaud
When the last curtain falls
Well, the irony is that you're wearing the look I once wore
And in truth I've longed for this moment to settle the score
But it's not all that clear, now hearing
You echo the thoughts of my soul
The justice of time Is really not mine
And I want you to know
When the last curtain falls with a final goodbye
And the bitter cold darkness of night
Floods the days of our lives
With a silence so loud we can't feel at all
There's no reason or cause
To cheer or applaud
When the last curtain falls
There's no reason or cause
To cheer or applaud
When the last curtain falls

11. _ You Burned the Bridge
You wanted your freedom, well, man look around
Now you're trapped by her memory and the cold haunting sound
Of your restless heart, she never could take
Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames
Like a whistle blowin' from a fast movin' train
The words that she said still ring true in your brain
And you cry Ike a baby at the drop of her name
Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames
Now, you sift through the ashes for one piece of hope
You're searching your heart for the same
You left her waiting on the other side for a true love that never came
Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames
Now the smoke rises up from your last cigarette
And the whiskey goes down like a shot of regret
'Cause you know that you've lost her and you know who's to blame
Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames
Yeah, you burned the bridge and it went down in flames

13. _ Working on a Building
If I was a sinner, I tell you what I'd do
I'd quit my sinnin' and I'd work on a building too
I'm workin' on a building, I'm workin' on a building
I'm workin' on a building for my Lord, for my Lord
It's a Holy Ghost building, it's a Holy Ghost building
It's a Holy Ghost building for my Lord, for my Lord
If I was a drunkard, I tell you what I'd do
I'd quit my drinkin' and I'd work on a building too
I'm workin' on a building, I'm workin' on a building
I'm workin' on a building for my Lord, for my Lord
It's a Holy Ghost building, it's a Holy Ghost building
It's a Holy Ghost building for my Lord, for my Lord
If I was a preacher, I tell you what I'd do
I'd keep on preachin' and I'd work on a building too
I'm workin' on a building, I'm workin' on a building
I'm workin' on a building for my Lord, for my Lord
It's a Holy Ghost building, it's a Holy Ghost building
It's a Holy Ghost building for my Lord, for my Lord

14. _ Diamond in My Crown
As each long day rolls by and falls behind me
In the lonely night there's a peacefulness I've found
Though I'm weary even then when I rise to start again
There'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown
I have wasted all that life has laid before me
I have watched as all the green fields turn to brown
But I shall not disavow all these ties that bind me now
There'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown
Shining down some day I know
Brighter than all their streets of gold
When the burdens that I carry I will lay down
And the sorrows I have known
I'll see them all overthrown
There'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown
Then the closer I will be to my sweetest victory
There'll be a diamond a diamond in my crown

15. _ Friends in Gloryland
If you have friends in Gloryland
Who left because of pain
Thank God up there they'll die no more
They'll suffer not again
So weep not friends I'm going home
And we shall meet once more
To gather there around the throne
On that celestial shore
If you have friends in Gloryland
