Gentle On My Mind
Gentle On My MindIt's knowin' that your door is always open And you path is free to walk That makes me tend to keep my sleeping bag rolled up And stashed behind your couch It's knowin' I'm not shackled By forgotten words and bonds And the heat stains that have dried up on some lovin' That keeps you in the back roads By the rivers of my memory It keeps you ever gentle on my mind It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy Planted on their columns mellowed by me Or something that somebody said Because they thought we'd fit together walking It's just knowing that the world will not be cursin' Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find That you're moving on the back roads By the rivers of my memory and for hours You're just gentle on my mind Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines And the junk yards and the highways come between us And some other woman's cryin' to her mother 'Cause she turned and I was gone I still might run in silence Till' the join might stain my face And the summer sun might burn me 'till I'm blind But not to where I cannot see you Walking in the back roads By the rivers flowing gently on my mind I dip my cup of soup from a gurgling, cracking cauldron in some train yard I'm barely runnin' cold how Have a dirty hat pulled low across my face Who cupped hands around the tin cans I pretend to hold you to my breast and find That you're wavin' from the back roads By the rivers of my memory Ever smiling never changes on my mind Written by James Hartford GentlyGently your eyes met mine Tender, trusting, true Gently your hand took mine Thrilled me through and through Gently, oh so gently Gentle as the dawn Gently, oh so gently Our true love was born Gently your lips kissed mine As we strolled along Gently your heart touched mine Young and warm and strong Gently the hour is near When true loves have to part Gently we'll meet again One more kiss, sweetheart Written by Wizell and Lisbona G.I. BluesThey give us a room with a view of the beautiful Rhine They give us a room with a view of the beautiful Rhine Gimme a muddy old creek in Texas any old time I've got those hup, two, three, four occupation G.I. Blues From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes And if I don't go stateside soon I'm gonna blow my fuse We get hasenpfeffer and black pumpernickel for chow We get hasenpfeffer and black pumpernickel for chow I'd blow my next month's pay for a slice of Texas cow We'd like to be heroes, but all we do here is march We'd like to be heroes, but all we do here is march And they don't give the Purple Heart for a fallen arch I've got those hup, two, three, four occupation G.I. Blues From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes And if I don't go stateside soon I'm gonna blow my fuse The frauleins are pretty as flowers But we can't make a pass The frauleins are pretty as flowers But we can't make a pass Cause they're all wearin' signs saying: "Keepen sie off the grass" I've got those hup, two, three, four occupation G.I.

Ay colomitos inolvidables, inolvidables como las tardes En que la lluvia, des de la loma, ir nos hacia, hasta Zapopam Guadalajara, Guadalajara...Guadalajara..Guadalajara Guadalajara....Guadalajara Written by Pepe Guizar Guitar ManWell, I quit my job down at the car wash, Left my mama a goodbye note, By sundown I'd left Kingston, With my guitar under my coat, I hitchhiked all the way down to Memphis, Got a room at the YMCA, For the next three weeks I went huntin' them nights, Just lookin' for a place to play, Well, I thought my pickin' would set 'em on fire, But nobody wanted to hire a guitar man. Well, I nearly 'bout starved to death down in Memphis, I run outta money and luck, So I bought me a ride down to Macon, Georgia, On a overloaded poultry truck, I thumbed on down to Panama City, Started pickin' out some o' them all night bars, Hopin' I could make myself a dollar, Makin' music on my guitar, I got the same old story at them all night piers, There ain't no room around here for a guitar man We don't need a guitar man, son So I slept in the hobo jungles, Roamed a thousand miles of track, Till I found myself in Mobile Alabama, At a club they call Big Jack's, A little four-piece band was jammin', So I took my guitar and I sat in, I showed 'em what a band would sound like, With a swingin' little guitar man. Show 'em, son If you ever take a trip down to the ocean, Find yourself down around Mobile, Make it on out to a club called Jack's, If you got a little time to kill, Just follow that crowd of people, You'll wind up out on his dance floor, Diggin' the finest little five-piece group, Up and down the Gulf of Mexico, Guess who's leadin' that five-piece band, Well, wouldn't ya know, it's that swingin' little guitar man.
