There was a time, i used to call you on my very own
We were so happy woman, talkin' for hours and hours on the telephone

Then one day, i set you up to walk right outta my life
Leavin' me all by myself, all alone, to cry every night

(babe...) oooh, i want you to come back home yeah (come on home)
(oooh yeah) sweet little girl (ooh yeah, been gone so long)
Been away so long

Now listen to me: i said i made up my mind
Woman when you left me there, oh
I was gonna find another sweet lover
Who's gonna feel all of my... cares

So i met a sweet little girl, just about as nice as she could be, oh
I fell in love with that woman, but she turned around,
And did the same thing again to me...

(babe...) baby, please come home (come on home) hoome yeah...
I know, (ya been gone too long) been away so long
(babe...) i want you to please come home, oh (come on hooome...)

So i made up my mind, i gonna crawl right back to you woman
I'm gonna plead and plead and plead, yeah, 'till you're here by my side
I can't even walk down the same old streets we used to walk down
'cause i keep thinkin about all the good times
Keep thinkin' about it, i wanna make you mine

Babe, babe, babe, please (come on home, yeah) (come on home)
(you've been gone too long)

Here's a tale of Tom
Who worked the rivers run
His wife would cook his meat
But he wouldn't care to eat

Poor Tom, Seventh Son, Always knew what's goin on

Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
There ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom

Worked for thirty years
Sharin' hopes and fears
Dreamin' of the day
He could turn and say

Poor Tom, work's gone, lazin' out in the noonday sun

Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
Ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom

His wife was Ellie May
One of many games she played
When Tom was out of town
She couldn't keep her dress down

Poor Tom, Seventh Son, always knew what's goin on

Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
Ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom

And so it was one day
People got to Ellie May
^^^^^^^^^^ (again, I'm open to suggestions)

Tom took a gun in his hand
And stopped all the runnin' around

Poor Tom, Seventh Son, gotta die for what you've done

All those years of work are thrown away
To ease your mind is that all you can say?

But what about that grandson on your knee?
And railroad song is ... he could be
^^^ (any ideas?)

Ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom
Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
Ain't a thing that you can hide from Tom
There ain't nothing that you can hide from Tom

Keep-a Truckin'
Keep-a Truckin'

I can't quit you babe
Woman I think I'm gonna put you down for a little while
I can't quit you babe
I... think I'm gonna put you down for a while
I said you messed up my happy home
Made me mistreat my only child

You built my hopes so high
Baby then you let me down so low
You built my hopes so high then ya let me down... so low
Don'tcha realize sweet baby?
Woman I don't know... which way to go

Woman I can't quit you babe
I think I'm gonna put you down for a while

Ooooh...oh it feels so strange to be at the door
oooh...tryin hard to change but can't let go
oooh...cryin' tears of pain and more and more
oooh...everyday is the same as the one before

I'm walkin the floor over you
I'm walkin the floor

Every heart that breaks is a heart that's gold
To the hand that takes your dream that's sold (that's old?)

Oooh...Is it long to wait is it much too late?
oooh...Sometimes it's hard when you wanted the pain

you know it's hard
I said it's hard
You know it's true
I said it's hard
you know it's hard
you know it's true

Everyday the ??? smile is gone
when you hear the call can you count the cards?
And to say the longer you only have
Can you step inside does it matter now

Every love that's ?????????
Can't hide in the light for a heart ???
Every day of ????
She was smilin' a tear at her waters fall ??

you know it's true
you know it's true now
oooh yeah

I'm walkin the floor over you
I'm walkin' the floor
Every tear that's fall. ?? ..smile is warm
When you hear the call can you count to ???
Can you stand the love you want ???
Can you step aside

Does it matter now?
Does it matter now?
Does it matter now?

ooh yeah

Every tear that's fall... does it matter now
does it matter now oh yeah!
oh yeah!
oh yes!

Wanna tell you about the girl i love
My she looks so fine
She's the only one that i been dreamin' of
Maybe someday she will be all mine
I wanna tell her that i love her so
I thrill with her every touch
I need to tell her she's the only one i really love

I got a woman, wanna ball all day
I got a woman, she won't be true, no
I got a woman, stay drunk all the time
I said i got a little woman and she won't be true

Sunday morning when we go down to church
See the menfolk standin' in line
I said they come to pray to the lord
With my little girl, looks so fine
In the evening when the sun is sinkin' low
Everybody's with the one they love
I walk the town, keep a-searchin' all around
Lookin' for my street corner girl

I got a woman, wanna ball all day
I got a woman, she won't be true, no no
I got a woman, stay drunk all the time
I said i got a little woman and she won't be true

In the bars, with the men who play guitars
Singin', drinkin' and rememberin' the times
My little lover does a midnight shift
She balled around all the time
I guess there's just one thing a-left for me to do
Gonna pack my bags and move on my way
Cause i got a worried mind
Sharin' what i thought was mine
Gonna leave her where the guitars play

I got a woman, she won't be true, no no
I got a woman, wanna ball all day
I got a woman, stay drunk all the time
I got a little woman and she won't be true

(hey hey what can i do)

I said she won't be true

(hey hey, what can i say?)

Hey hey, what can i do
I got a woman, she won't be true
Lord, hear what i say
I got a woman, wanna ball all day
