The waters of a river flow down stream sometimes stand still
And it makes its own way through this world and the road is all down hill
But no man ever knows what his life will bring
But he'll get where he's goin' if he finds a time to sing
A time to sing a song of his love a time to sing of what he's dreamin' of
Maybe over the next hill the grass is green
But rocky road gets smoother if he finds a time to sing

And no man should stay in the way of another's dream
And no one should stop someone to find a time to sing
A time to sing a song...
Finds a time to sing finds a time to sing

Next time I say goodbye I'm leaving I'm leaving even though I love you so
Next time I say goodbye I'm leaving unless I change my mind before I go
I know that's what I said the last time the last time and a hundred times before
But darling next time I say goodbye I'm leaving
Unless you kiss when I reach the door
Your tender lips soon melt my will of art
Your loving tricks may mean or make my name of mind
Next time I say goodbye I'm leaving unless I change my mind before I go
[ guitar ]
Next time I say goodbye...
Unless I change my mind before I go

You'd like to have me take you dancin' every other night
It's gotten so my eyes're runner custom to daylight
My bills're runnin' up and I am runnin' down
The way I'm goin' soon I'll be sent the underground
You're gonna make me old before my time
I don't know how you go on like you do
But I don't mind growin' old before my time just as long as I'll grow old with you
You're gonna make me old...
You're gonna make me old...

. . .


I've met a girl or two in my lifetime and I've loved a few but not the right time
I think I'm a wastin' my time lovin' anyone but you
You got a hold on me I just can't seem to break free
I walk a girl to town and start to fool around but honey you're the rock in my shoe
I stroll into the night spots thinkin' that I'm something real hot
I got a pretty girl and she's got a lot but I know she ain't true
It's just not the same I'm playin' a fool's game
Oh when I start to dance and try to make romance honey you're the rock in my shoe
Now my heart has reached that decision cause my mind keeps havin' a vision
No --- hers and his and and I guess I always knew
You'd make the bells ring and pull my heart strings
I'm walkin' down the aisle with the great big smile
Cause there ain't no rocks in my shoe

There's always a rock in my shoe when I walk with someone new
I try to find love in another's arms but it seems I just dream of you
Now my heart has reached...
I'm walkin' down the aisle...

. . .


Money can't help you took fine real happiness you say
It may not help but then again it don't stand in your way
So don't come knockin' at my door if you want sympathy
Well now money can't buy you happiness but neither can poor ole me
Money won't help you very much if you wanna find true love
But that don't mean just being poor will make you better off
If you can't win a girl with a Cadillac don't switch to a Model T
Well now money can't buy you happiness but neither can poor ole me
You got troubles tropubles and worries it's all true no doubt
But all your cares are just a thing I'd love to worry about
I wish just once that I got a chance to sit back and complain
About a steak that's overdone and underaged champagne
My schauffer bein' late ain't my idea of real misery
Well now money can't buy you happiness but neither can poor ole me
Money can't buy you happiness but neither can poor ole me
Neither can poor ole me neither can poor ole me

A Man On His Own

There's Gotta Be More To Life Than You

[No lyrics]

. . .


It seems that you've changed in these past few days
For when I try to kiss you you just push me away
Now I don't know what's wrong but I don't see how we can go on
I think your love for me is dying and it's all over but the crying
I called you on the phone just to find out what was wrong
And the thing you said made my suspicions real
You said tonight again you had to stay with this sick friend
But that story I'm not buying cause it's all over but the crying
It's all over but the crying I never would have thought you were lying
It sounded so true when you said I love you
Now I say my goodbying cause it's all over but the crying it's all over but the crying

And it makes its own way through this world and the road is all down hill
But no man ever knows what his life will bring
But he'll get where he's goin' if he finds a time to sing
A time to sing a song of his love a time to sing of what he's dreamin' of
Maybe over the next hill the grass is green
But rocky road gets smoother if he finds a time to sing

And no man should stay in the way of another's dream
And no one should stop someone to find a time to sing
A time to sing a song...
Finds a time to sing finds a time to sing
