Lyrics
(We'll understand it all by and by)
Tempted and tried we're oft' made to wonder
Why it should be thus all the day long
While there are others living about us
Never molested, though in the wrong
Farther along we'll know more about it
Farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by
When death has come and taken our loved ones
Leaving our homes so lonely and drear
Then do we wonder how others prosper
Living so wicked year after year
Farther along we'll know more about it
Farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by
Tempted and tried we're oft' made to wonder
Why it should be thus all the day long
While there are others living about us
Never molested, though in the wrong
Farther along we'll know more about it
Farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by
When death has come and taken our loved ones
Leaving our homes so lonely and drear
Then do we wonder how others prosper
Living so wicked year after year
Farther along we'll know more about it
Farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by

Lyrics
Why try? Now why?
This feeling inside me says it's time I was gone
Clear head, new life ahead
It's time I was king and not just one more pawn.
Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye my dear
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
Moon rise, thoughtful eyes
Staring back at me from the window beside
No fright or hindsight
Leaving behind that empty feeling inside
Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye my dear
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye my dear
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
Start a new chapter
I find what I'm after
It's changing every day
The change of a season
Is enough of a reason
To want to get away
Quiet and pensive
My thoughts apprehensive
The hours drift away
Leaving my homeland
Playing a lone hand
My life begins today
Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye my dear
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye my dear
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
This feeling inside me says it's time I was gone
Clear head, new life ahead
It's time I was king and not just one more pawn.
Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye my dear
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
Moon rise, thoughtful eyes
Staring back at me from the window beside
No fright or hindsight
Leaving behind that empty feeling inside
Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye my dear
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye my dear
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
Start a new chapter
I find what I'm after
It's changing every day
The change of a season
Is enough of a reason
To want to get away
Quiet and pensive
My thoughts apprehensive
The hours drift away
Leaving my homeland

My life begins today
Fly by night, away from here
Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye my dear
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend

Change my life again
Fly by night, goodbye my dear
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend
My ship isn't coming and I just can't pretend

Lyrics
There are those who think that life has nothing left to chance
A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance
A planet of play things
We dance on the strings
Of powers we cannot perceive
'The stars aren't aligned
Or the gods are malign...'
Blame is better to give than receive
[Chorus:]
You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose freewill
There are those who think
That they were dealt a losing hand
The cards were stacked against them
They weren't born in Lotusland
Allways preordained
A prisoner in chains
A victim of venomous fate
Kicked in the face
You can't pray for a place
In heaven's unearthly estate
[Chorus]
Each of us
A cell of awareness
Imperfect and incomplete
Genetic blends
With uncertain ends
On a fortune hunt that's far too fleet
[Chorus]
A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance
A planet of play things
We dance on the strings
Of powers we cannot perceive
'The stars aren't aligned
Or the gods are malign...'
Blame is better to give than receive
[Chorus:]
You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose freewill
There are those who think
That they were dealt a losing hand
The cards were stacked against them
They weren't born in Lotusland
Allways preordained
A prisoner in chains
A victim of venomous fate
Kicked in the face
You can't pray for a place
In heaven's unearthly estate
[Chorus]
Each of us
A cell of awareness
Imperfect and incomplete
Genetic blends
With uncertain ends
On a fortune hunt that's far too fleet
[Chorus]

We're headin' 'cross the river
Gonna wash our sins in the tide
It's all so peaceful
On the other side
Forget your troubles and just get happy
Ya better chase all your cares away
Sing Hallelujah, c'mon get happy
Get ready for the judgment day
The sun is shinin', c'mon get happy
The Lord is waiting to take your hand
Shout Hallelujah, c'mon get happy
We're goin' to the Promised Land
We're headin' 'cross the river
Wash our sins away in the tide
It's all so peaceful
On the other side
We're headin' 'cross the river
Wash our sins away in the tide
It's all so peaceful
On the other side
Forget your troubles and just get happy
Ya better chase your cares away!!
Sing Hallelujah, c'mon get happy
Get ready for the judgment day
Get Happy

Lyrics
Hey, get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm when you get the blues
Get a rock and roll feelin' in your bones
Put taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm when you get the blues
I met a shoeshine boy never gets low down
But he's got the dirtiest job in town
Bendin' low at the peoples feet
On the windy corner of the dirty street
When I asked him while he shined my shoes
How'd he keep from gettin' the blues
He grinned as he raised his little head
Popped a shoeshine rag and then he said
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm when you get blues
A jumpy rhythm makes you feel so fine
It'll shake all the trouble from your worried mind
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Hey, get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm when you get the blues
Get a rock and roll feelin' in your bones
Put taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Well, I sat down to listen to the shoeshine boy
And I thought I was gonna jump for joy
Slapped on the shoe polish left and right
He took a shoeshine rag and he held it tight
He stopped once to wipe the sweat away
I said you're a mighty little boy to be workin' that way
He said I like it with a big wide grin
Kept on a poppin' and he said again
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm, when you get the blues
It only cost a dime, just a nickel a shoe
It does a million dollars worth of good for you
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm when you get the blues
Get a rock and roll feelin' in your bones
Put taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm when you get the blues
I met a shoeshine boy never gets low down
But he's got the dirtiest job in town
Bendin' low at the peoples feet
On the windy corner of the dirty street
When I asked him while he shined my shoes
How'd he keep from gettin' the blues
He grinned as he raised his little head
Popped a shoeshine rag and then he said
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm when you get blues
A jumpy rhythm makes you feel so fine
It'll shake all the trouble from your worried mind
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Hey, get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm when you get the blues
Get a rock and roll feelin' in your bones
Put taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Well, I sat down to listen to the shoeshine boy
And I thought I was gonna jump for joy
Slapped on the shoe polish left and right

I said you're a mighty little boy to be workin' that way

But he's got the dirtiest job in town
Bendin' low at the peoples feet
On the windy corner of the dirty street
When I asked him while he shined my shoes
How'd he keep from gettin' the blues
He grinned as he raised his little head
Popped a shoeshine rag and then he said
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm when you get blues
A jumpy rhythm makes you feel so fine
It'll shake all the trouble from your worried mind
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Hey, get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm when you get the blues
Get a rock and roll feelin' in your bones
Put taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Well, I sat down to listen to the shoeshine boy
And I thought I was gonna jump for joy
Slapped on the shoe polish left and right
He took a shoeshine rag and he held it tight
He stopped once to wipe the sweat away
I said you're a mighty little boy to be workin' that way
He said I like it with a big wide grin
Kept on a poppin' and he said again
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm, when you get the blues
It only cost a dime, just a nickel a shoe
It does a million dollars worth of good for you
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm when you get the blues
Get a rock and roll feelin' in your bones
Put taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm when you get the blues
I met a shoeshine boy never gets low down
But he's got the dirtiest job in town
Bendin' low at the peoples feet
On the windy corner of the dirty street
When I asked him while he shined my shoes
How'd he keep from gettin' the blues
He grinned as he raised his little head
Popped a shoeshine rag and then he said
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm when you get blues
A jumpy rhythm makes you feel so fine
It'll shake all the trouble from your worried mind
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Hey, get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm when you get the blues
Get a rock and roll feelin' in your bones
Put taps on your toes and get gone
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Well, I sat down to listen to the shoeshine boy
And I thought I was gonna jump for joy
Slapped on the shoe polish left and right
He took a shoeshine rag and he held it tight
He stopped once to wipe the sweat away
I said you're a mighty little boy to be workin' that way
He said I like it with a big wide grin
Kept on a poppin' and he said again
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Come on get rhythm, when you get the blues
It only cost a dime, just a nickel a shoe
It does a million dollars worth of good for you
Get rhythm when you get the blues
Get Rhythm

Lyrics
Givin' up is hard to do
When you really love someone
Givin' up is hard to do
When you still depend upon
His warm and tender touch
His kiss and his caress
That used to mean so much
And bring you happiness
(Givin' up) Oh, Lord, is hard to do
I try, but it's just no use
(Givin' up) Whoa, Lord, it's hard to do
I tried, but I kept recluse
The light of hope burns dim
But in my heart I pray
My love, my love, my love and faith in him
Will bring him back someday
(Givin' up)
But it's just no use
(Givin' up)
No, I can't break loose
Whether he knows or not
He really needs me too
Oh, Lord, 1 oh, Lord, oh, Lord, he's all I've got
And giving up
Is so hard to do (Givin' up)
Oh, yes, it is (Givin' up)
Is so hard to do (Givin' up)
Oh, yes, it is (Givin' up)
I just can't break loose (Givin' up)
No, no, no (Givin' up)
I just can't break loose (Givin' up)
No, no, no, no (Givin' up), hey, hey, hey
When you really love someone
Givin' up is hard to do
When you still depend upon
His warm and tender touch
His kiss and his caress
That used to mean so much
And bring you happiness
(Givin' up) Oh, Lord, is hard to do

(Givin' up) Whoa, Lord, it's hard to do

Oh, yes, it is (Givin' up)

Lyrics
Today as I was walking
In the fields just down the way
I sat down on a fallen log
To pass the time away
And as I looked around me
The more that I did look
the more I realize that I am viewing
God's coloring book
I saw a golden ray of sunlight
A silver drop of dew
A soft, white floating cloud
Sailing cross the sky 'a blue
A yellow dandelion
Pretty evergreen
And some red and orange flowers
Growing wild along the stream
And the more I look around me
And the more that I do look
The more I realize that I am viewing
God's coloring book
The greyness in an old man's hair
The pink in baby's cheeks
The blackness in a stormy sky
The brown in fallen leaves
And the multicolored rainbow
Stretched out across the sky
And the purple haze at sunset
Just before the night
And the more I look around me
And the more that I do look
The more I realize that I am viewing
God's coloring book
Then I turn my face toward the sky
And say a silent prayer
Though God doesn't speak to me
I see him everywhere
He is all around me
He's everywhere I look
And each new day is but a new page
In God's coloring book

Lyrics
When I think of all the good times that I've wasted having good times
When I think of all the good time that 's been wasted having good times
When I was drinkin'
I should've been thinkin'
When I was fighting
I could've done the right thing
All of that boozin'
I was really losin'
Good times
Good times
When I think of all the good time that's been wasted having good times
When I think of all the good time that's been wasted having good times
All of my lying
I remember her crying
My useless talkin'
I couldv'e been walkin'
Instead of complainin'
I couldv'e been gainin'
Good times
Yes, here we all are having a jolly good time
And everything is working out fine, ha ha ha ha ha
Useless talkin'
All that walkin
All of my sinnin'
I could've been winnin'
I have it too easy
And its a beginning of good times
Good times
I said good times
Talking bout good times
When I think of all the good time that 's been wasted having good times
When I was drinkin'
I should've been thinkin'
When I was fighting
I could've done the right thing
All of that boozin'
I was really losin'
Good times
Good times
When I think of all the good time that's been wasted having good times
When I think of all the good time that's been wasted having good times
All of my lying

Yes, here we all are having a jolly good time
And everything is working out fine, ha ha ha ha ha

Lyrics
Inside the walls of prison my body may be but my Lord has set my soul free
There's a greystone chapel here at Folsom a house of worship in this den of sin
You wouldn't think that God had a place here at Folsom
But he saved the souls of many lost men
Now there's greystone chapel here at Folsom
Stands a hundred years all made of granite rock
It takes a ring of keys to move here at Folsom
But the door to the House of God is never locked
Inside the walls of prison my body may be but my Lord has set my soul free
[Guitar instrumental]
There are men here that don't ever worship
There are men here who scoff at the ones who pray
But I've got down on my knees in that greystone chapel
And I thank the Lord for helpin' me each day
Now there's greystone chapel here at Folsom
It has a touch of God's hand on ever stone
It's a flower of light in a field of darkness and it's givin' me the strenght to carry on
Inside the walls of prison my body may be but my Lord has set my soul free
There's a greystone chapel here at Folsom a house of worship in this den of sin
You wouldn't think that God had a place here at Folsom
But he saved the souls of many lost men
Now there's greystone chapel here at Folsom
Stands a hundred years all made of granite rock
It takes a ring of keys to move here at Folsom
But the door to the House of God is never locked
Inside the walls of prison my body may be but my Lord has set my soul free
[Guitar instrumental]
There are men here that don't ever worship
There are men here who scoff at the ones who pray
But I've got down on my knees in that greystone chapel
And I thank the Lord for helpin' me each day
Now there's greystone chapel here at Folsom
It has a touch of God's hand on ever stone
It's a flower of light in a field of darkness and it's givin' me the strenght to carry on
Inside the walls of prison my body may be but my Lord has set my soul free

Lyrics
Sing Hallelujah, Hallelujah
And you'll shoo the blues away
Cares pursue ya, Hallelujah!
Gets you through the darkest day
Satan lies a-waitin'
And creatin' skies of gray
But Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Helps to shoo the clouds away
I recall in Times when I was small in
Light and free Jubilee days
In that sunny land of milk and honey
I had no complaints while I thought of saints
So I say to all who fearful are
Sing Hallelujah Hallelujah!
And you'll shoo the blues away
When cares pursue ya, Hallelujah!
Gets you through the darkest day
Satan lies a-waitin'
And creatin' skies of gray
But Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Helps to shoo the clouds away
Up at dawn and hit the deck
Put out your chest and straighten your neck
They’ll give ‘ya the boot if you don’t salute
Hup one two
Satan lies a waitin’
And creatin’ skies of gray
But hallejuh sing hallelujah
Helps to shoe the clouds away
Sing hallelujah
And you'll shoo the blues away
Cares pursue ya, Hallelujah!
Gets you through the darkest day
Satan lies a-waitin'
And creatin' skies of gray
But Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Helps to shoo the clouds away
I recall in Times when I was small in
Light and free Jubilee days
In that sunny land of milk and honey
I had no complaints while I thought of saints
So I say to all who fearful are
Sing Hallelujah Hallelujah!
And you'll shoo the blues away
When cares pursue ya, Hallelujah!
Gets you through the darkest day
Satan lies a-waitin'
And creatin' skies of gray
But Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Helps to shoo the clouds away
Up at dawn and hit the deck
Put out your chest and straighten your neck
They’ll give ‘ya the boot if you don’t salute
Hup one two
Satan lies a waitin’
And creatin’ skies of gray
But hallejuh sing hallelujah
Helps to shoe the clouds away
Sing hallelujah

Chorus:
Halos and horns, sinners and saints,
Hearts that are torn between what's wrong and ain't
Just because it feels right does not make it so
So we struggle through life in horns and halos
Verse 1:
Tempted and tried with each step we take
We stumble and slide and make our mistakes,
Ask God to forgive us for all of our sins,
Then we take off our horns and wear halos again
Chorus:
Halos and horns, sinners and saints,
Hearts that are torn between what's wrong and ain't
Just because it feels right does not make it so
So we struggle through life in horns and halos
(Turnaround)
2nd Chorus:
Halos and horns, sinners and saints,
We're praised or we're scorned, we either run or we faint
Oh, but life is a challenge from the day that we're born
Just tryin' to balance halos and horns
It's heaven or hell, halos or horns
3rd Chorus:
Halos and horns, sinners and saints,
Hearts that are torn between what's wrong and ain't
But just because it feels right; well, that don't make it so
So we struggle through life in horns or halos
It's either horns or halos
Halos and horns, sinners and saints,
Hearts that are torn between what's wrong and ain't
Just because it feels right does not make it so
So we struggle through life in horns and halos
Verse 1:
Tempted and tried with each step we take
We stumble and slide and make our mistakes,
Ask God to forgive us for all of our sins,
Then we take off our horns and wear halos again

Hearts that are torn between what's wrong and ain't

Lyrics
Happiness, happiness, the greatest gift that I possess
I thank the Lord, that I've been blessed
With more than my share of happiness
To me this world is a wonderful place
I'm the luckiest human in the whole human race
I've got no silver and I've got no gold
But I've got happiness in my soul
Happiness to me is an ocean tide
A sunset fading on a mountain side
A big old heaven full of stars up above
When I'm in the arms of the one I love
Happiness, happiness, the greatest gift that I possess
I thank the Lord, that I've been blessed
With more than my share of happiness
Happiness is a field of grain
Turning its face to the falling rain
I can see it in the sunshine, I breathe it in the rain
Happiness, happiness everywhere
A wise old man told me one time
Happiness is a frame of mind
When you go to measuring success
That you don't count money count happiness
Happiness, happiness, the greatest gift that I possess
I thank the Lord I've been blessed
With more than my share of happiness
Happiness, happiness, the greatest gift that I possess
I thank the Lord I've been blessed
With more than my share of happiness
I got more than my share of happiness
I thank the Lord, that I've been blessed
With more than my share of happiness
To me this world is a wonderful place
I'm the luckiest human in the whole human race
I've got no silver and I've got no gold
But I've got happiness in my soul
Happiness to me is an ocean tide
A sunset fading on a mountain side
A big old heaven full of stars up above
When I'm in the arms of the one I love
Happiness, happiness, the greatest gift that I possess
I thank the Lord, that I've been blessed
With more than my share of happiness
Happiness is a field of grain
Turning its face to the falling rain
I can see it in the sunshine, I breathe it in the rain

My mother told me
'Fore she passed away
Said son when I'm gone
Don't forget to pray
'Cause there'll be hard times
Lord those hard times
Who knows better than I?
Well I soon found out
Just what she meant
When I had to pawn my clothes
Just to pay the rent
Talkin' 'bout hard times
Lord those hard times
Who knows better than I?
I had a woman
Who was always around
But when I lost my money
She put me down
Talkin' 'bout hard times
Hard times
Yeah, yeah, who knows better than I?
Lord, one of these days
There'll be no more sorrow
When I pass away
And no more hard times
No more hard times
Yeah, yeah, who knows better than I?
'Fore she passed away
Said son when I'm gone
Don't forget to pray
'Cause there'll be hard times
Lord those hard times
Who knows better than I?
