Lightning Express

The lightning express from the depot so grand
Had started out on its way
All of the passengers that gathered on board
Seemed to be happy and gay
But one little boy who sat by himself
Was reading a letter he had
You could plainly tell by the look on his face
That the contents of it made him sad

The stern old conductor then started his round
collecting tickets from everyone there
And finally reaching the side of the boy
He gruffly demanded his fare
"I have no ticket" the boy then replied
"But I'll pay you back someday"
"Then I'll put you off at the next stop we make"
But he stopped when he heard the boy say

"Please Mr. Conductor
Don't put me off of this train
The best friend I have in this world sir
Is waiting for me in pain
Expecting to die any moment sir
And may not live through the day
I wanna reach home and kiss mother goodbye
Before God takes her away"

A girl sitting near was heard to exclaim
"If you put him off, it's a shame"
Taking his hand, a collection she made
The boy's way was paid on the train
"I'm obliged to you miss for your kindness to me"
"You're welcome," she said, never fear
Each time the conductor would pass through the car
The boy's words would ring in his ear

"Please Mr. Conductor
Don't put me off of this train
The best friend I have in this world sir
Is waiting for me in pain
Expecting to die any moment sir
And may not live through the day
I wanna reach home and kiss mother goodbye
Before God takes her away"

Like Strangers

Like strangers.
That´s what we are.
Darling how can lovers pull apart so far?
Like strangers.
How can it be?
Only days ago, we loved so tenderly.
I love you, truly I do.
And I hope deep in your heart you love me too.
Let´s forget that we´ve been angry.
Let´s be lovers like before.
And try not to be like strangers, anymore.

Let´s forget that we´ve been angry,
Let´s be lovers like before,
And swear not to be like strangers, anymore.

Long Time Gone

You cheated me and left me lonely
I tried to be your very own
There'll be a day you'll want me only
But when I leave, I'll be a long time gone
Be a long time gone
Be a long time gone
Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone

You're gonna be sad, you're gonna be weepin'
You're gonna be blue and all alone
You'll regret the day you seen me weepin'
Cause when I leave, I'll be a long time gone
Be a long time gone
Be a long time gone
Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone

You'll see my face through tears and sorrow
You'll miss the love you called your own
Baby, there'll be no tomorrow
Cause when I leave, I'll be a long time gone
Be a long time gone
Be a long time gone
Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone

Lucille

Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
there ain't nothin to ya, but I-I-I love you still

Lucille, please come back where you belong
Lucille, please come back where you belong
I'm beggin to you baby, please don't leave me alone

I woke up this mornin, Lucille was not in sight
asked her friends about her, all their lips were tight

Lucille, please come back where you belong
I'm beggin to you baby, please don't leave me alone
OHHHHHHH-

Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
there ain't nothin to ya, but I-I-I love you still
OHHHHHHH-

Maybe Tomorrow

(chorus)
I´ll lo--ve you love agin,
Maybe Tomorrow
I do--n´t know where or when
Maybe Tomorrow, Maybe Tomorrow

You say, you say your´e gonna cr-y
Because they´ve made us say goodby-e
Our love will stand the test of ti-me,
And our ages won´t be there
To draw the li-ne.

Oh So Many Years

All these many years I've loved you
No-one has ever known
No-one has ever known but you alone
I've kept it locked inside my heart
And smiled through all my tears
My darling, I have loved you oh so many years

Each night within my lonely room
I cry dear, over you
And pray to God that things will turn out right
But when the dawn of day appears
I brush away my tears
My darling, I have loved you oh so many years

I'll go on pretending that my life is oh so gay
And happy dear without you by my side
When all the time my heart is
longing just to have you near
My darling I have loved you oh so many years

Maybe faith will leave us down a path where we will meet again
And then we will be free to love anew
Then once we kiss from your dear lips
Will banish all my fears
My darling I have loved you oh so many years
