If I could paint pictures I'd paint one for you
A picture portraying the love we once knew
Then a tear would reveal the sorrow in me
As I painted white fences and evergreen trees
Love can be greater than the mountains or seas
But it's only as great as two hearts believe
Faith blew away in yesterday's breeze
And we lost our white fences and evergreen trees
[ instrumental ]
I've walked through a valley and cried all night long
In search for the reason why true love goes wrong
With a prayer on my lips the earth touching my knees
I prayed for white fences and evergreen trees
Love can be greater than the mountains or seas...

Oh your love takes good care of me
Yes your love takes good care of me
And when the rain falls the wind blows the storm is on the sea
I'll be safe your love takes care of me
When life for me gets weary and the sun refuses to shine
I'll run to the arms of the one I love and there I'll hide
You know just what to do and say you make my life worth while
And when I look into your face I see heaven in your smile
And your love takes good care of me...
I'll be safe your love takes care of me

Since you've gone the moon the sun the stars in the sky
Know the reason why I cry
Love divine once was mine now you've gone
Since you've gone my heart my lips my tear dimmed eyes
A lonely soul within me cries
I acted smart broke your heart now you've gone
Oh oh oh oh what I'd give for the lifetime I've wasted
The love that I've tasted I was wrong now you've gone
[ instrumental ]
Oh oh oh oh what I'd give for the lifetime I've wasted...
(Now you've gone)

I hear the train a comin' it's comin' round the bend
I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison and time keeps draggin' on
And a train keeps a rollin' on down to San Antone
When I was just a baby my mama told me son
Always be a good boy don't ever play with guns
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die
When I hear that whistle blowin' I hang my head and I cry
[ instrumental ]
I bet there's rich folks eatin' in some fancy dining car
Probably drinkin' coffee and smokin' big cigars
Well I know I had it comin' I know I can't be free
But those people keep on movin' that's what tortures me
If they freed me from this prison if that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it over a little farther down the line
Far from Folsom Prison that's where I wanna stay
And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away

With pen in hand you signed your name
Today at five I'll be on that train
And you'll be free and I will be alone so alone
If you think we can't find the love we once knew
If you think I can make everything up to you
Then I'll be gone and you'll be on your own you'll be on your own
Can take good care of Danny can you take him to school everyday
Can you teach him how to catch a fish and keep all those bullys away here what I say
Can you teach him how to whistle a tune
Can you tell him about the Man in the Moon
If you can do these things then maybe he won't miss me maybe he won't miss me
And tonight as you lay in that big lonely bed
Can you look at the pillow where I laid my head
And with your heart on fire will you have no desire to kiss me and hold me
And if you can forget the good times we had
If you can think that the good times won't outweigh the bad
Then sign your name and I'll be on my way I'll be on my way hmm hmm

I got a sky full of sunshine a pocket full of roses
A hand full of I love you's
I ain't got no rooms for no sad song singin'
I got a heart full of love for you
(A heart full of love for you)
Well I used to be sad man in my heart
Torn apart then I have started
To lovin' you and now it's true
I got a heart full of love for you
I got a sky full of sunshine a pocket full of roses...
[ instrumental ]
Well when your baby starts feelin' blue
She feels like the world is fallin' through
Well take her in your arms and whisper low
That you love her so
I got a sky full of sunshine a pocket full of roses...
I got a sky full of sunshine a pocket full of roses...
Yes a heart full of love for you
A heart full of love for you
I got a heart full of love for you

Yes love's been good to me your love is so true
Yes love's been good to me since I met you
I don't make a lot of money but somehow we get by
And I'm always happy as long as you're by my side
With you beside me I know there's nothing I can't be
That's why I say that love's been good to me
Yes love's been good to me your love is so true...
Yes love's been good to me your love is so true...

I love you but I must live without you I said
And ever since I let you go my world has been dead
I don't know what I had in mind but I know it was wrong
So anytime you're ready come on home
Anytime you're ready this fool has paid enough
Anytime you're ready I really need your love
You don't need to warn me I'm always alone
So anytime you're ready come on home
[ instrumental ]
I could say I'm sorry and beg you to find a way
As a matter of fact dear I'd do it every day
I've got at least a million times since you've been gone
And anytime you're ready come on home
Anytime you're ready this fool has paid enough...
Yeah anytime you're ready come on home

If I've but one life to live let me live it with you
If I've but one heart to give let me give it to you
You're all that matters to me and that's how it should be
If I've but one life to live let me live it with you
My life is nothing without you I'm as lost as can be
But when you come into my view happiness is all I see
If I've but one life to live let me live it with you...

I know the heartaches are coming
Cause I know you're goin' away
There's no gladness in your voice when you say darlin'
There's no love behind your lips when they touch mine
There's no feeling in your arms when they're around me
How much plainer could you say it's goodbye time
I know the heartaches are coming
I know the skies will turn grey
I know the tears will start falling
Cause I know you're going' away
Hearts that were friends now are strangers
Eyes that could see now are blind
Only tomorrows of sorrow
From the day that you leave me behind
I know the heartaches are coming...

Flat River Mow Flat River Mo
It's been a many a day since I washed her waters flow
If I ain't got the money to pay I'm gonna walk every step of the way
Cause I gotta go back to Flat River Mo
The clothes on my back have been friends with the ground too long
And my foolish dream of wealth and fame is gone
Each day the hand of failure wakes me up at the break of dawn
And tells me to go back home to Flat River Mo
Flat River Mow Flat River Mo...
[ instrumental ]
I wonder if Mary's heart has ventured and grown fond
I wonder if the baby calls her mom
At night when the city lights and the neon signs come on
They don't shine like the moon back home over Flat River Mo
Flat River Mow Flat River Mo...
Flat River Mow Flat River Mo...
