TABLE SHINDIG LYRICS
SATURDAY 6/20 7:00 PM
KEEP ON THE SUNNY SIDE
[Verse 1]
There's a dark and a troubled side of life
But there's a bright and a sunny side, too
Though you meet with the darkness and strife
The sunny side you also may view
[Chorus]
Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side
Keep on the sunny side of life
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we'll keep on the sunny side of life
[Verse 2]
Though the storm and its furies rage today
Crushing hope that we cherish so dear
The cloud and storm will, in time, pass away
And the sun again will shine bright and clear
[Chorus]
Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side
Keep on the sunny side of life
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we'll keep on the sunny side of life
[Verse 3]
Let us greet with the song of hope each day
Though the moment be cloudy or fair
And let us trust in our Savior always
He'll keep us, every one, in His care
[Chorus]
Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side
Keep on the sunny side of life
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we'll keep on the sunny side of life
Keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side
Keep on the sunny side of life
It will help us every day, it will brighten all the way
If we'll keep on the sunny side of life
If we'll keep on the sunny side of life
LOVESICK BLUES
[Verse 1]
Got a feeling because I'm blue, oh, Lord
Since my daddy said goodbye
I don't know what I'm going to do
All I do is sit and cry, oh, lord
That last long day he said goodbye
Oh, Lord, I thought I would die
He'll do you, he'll do me
He's got that kinda loving
But, Lord, I love to hear him
When he calls me sweet baby
What a beautiful dream
I hate to think it all over
I lost my heart it seems
[Chorus]
I've grown so used to that man, somehow
And I'm nobody's sugar-baby now
Because I'm lonesome
I got the lovesick blues
[Verse 2]
Now I'm in love
I'm in love with a wonderful guy
That's what's the matter with me
Well, I'm in love
I'm in love with a wonderful guy
But he don't care about me
Well, I tried and I tried to keep him satisfied
But he just wouldn't stay
But now that he is leaving
This is all I've got to say
I got a feeling cause I'm blue, oh Lord
Since my daddy said goodbye
I don't know what I'm going to do
I lost my heart it seems
[Chorus][x2]
JOLENE
[Chorus]
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Ooh, I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
[Verse 1]
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your skin is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, Jolene
And I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you don't know what he means to me, Jolene
[Verse 2]
And he talks about you in his sleep
There's nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name, Jolene, Jolene
[Chorus]
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
[Verse 3]
I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do, Jolene
And you could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
'Cause he's the only one for me, Jolene, Jolene
[Chorus]
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Ooh, I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don't take him even though you can
Jolene, Jolene
HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE RAIN
[Verse 1]
Someone told me long ago
There's a calm before the storm, I know
It's been comin' for some time
When it's over, so they say
It'll rain a sunny day, I know
Shinin' down like water
[Chorus]
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain
Comin' down, a sunny day?
[Verse 2]
Yesterday and days before
Sun is cold and rain is hard, I know
Been that way for all my time
'Til forever, on it goes
Through the circle, fast and slow, I know
It can't stop, I wonder
[Chorus]
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain
Comin' down on a sunny day?
[Interlude]
Yeah
[Chorus]
I wanna know, have you ever seen thе rain?
I wanna know, have you ever seen the rain
Comin' down on a sunny day?
RING OF FIRE
[Verse 1]
Love is a burning thing
And it makes a fiery ring
Bound by wild desire
I fell into a ring of fire
[Chorus]
I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down and the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns, the ring of fire,
the ring of fire
[Chorus]
I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down and the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns, the ring of fire,
the ring of fire
[Verse 2]
The taste of love is sweet
When hearts like ours meet
I fell for you like a child
Oh, but the fire went wild
[Chorus]
I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down and the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns, the ring of fire,
[Outro]
And it burns, burns, burns, the ring of fire,
the ring of fire
The ring of fire, the ring of fire, the ring of fire
ROLLING IN THE DEEP
[Verse 1]
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bringing me out the dark
Finally, I can see you crystal clear
Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your shit bare
See how I'll leave with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will do
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bringing me out the dark
[Pre-Chorus]
The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinkin' that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling
[Chorus]
We could've had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
And you played it to the beat
[Verse 2]
Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one on you, now I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Make a home down there, as mine sure won't be shared
[Pre-Chorus]
The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinkin' that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling
[Chorus]
We could've had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
And you played it to the beat
Could've had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
But you played it with a beating
[Bridge]
Throw your soul through every open door
Count your blessings to find what you look for
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold
You'll pay me back in kind and reap just what you've sown
[Breakdown]
We could've had it all
We could've had it all, yeah
It all, it all, it all
[Chorus]
We could've had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
And you played it to the beat
Could've had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
But you played it, you played it, you played it
You played it to the beat
LOVE IS A ROSE
Love is a rose, but you'd better not pick it
Only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine
I wanna see what's never been seen
I wanna live that age old dream
C'mon boy, let's go together
Let's take the best, right now
Take the best right now
Love is a rose, but you'd better not pick it
Only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine
I wanna go to an old hoe-down
Long ago in the western town
Pick me up cause my feet are draggin'
Gimme a lift and I'll paint your wagon
Love is a rose, but you'd better not pick it
Only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine
Love is a rose, but you'd better not pick it
Only grows when it's on the vine
Handful of thorns and you know you've missed it
Lose your love when you say the word mine
Mine
Love is a rose
Love is a rose
Love is a rose
Love is a rose
WAYFARING STRANGER
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
While traveling through this world of woe
But there's no sickness, toil or danger
In that bright land to which I go
I'm going there to see my Father
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm only goin', goin' over Jordan
I'm only goin' over home
I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
I know my way is rough and steep
But golden fields lie just before me
Where God's redeemed there vigils keep
I'm going there to see my mother
She said she'd meet me when I come
I'm only goin', goin' over Jordan
I'm only goin' over home
I want to wear that crown of glory
When I get home to that sweet land
I want to see salvation's story
In concert with the blood-washed man
I'm going there to see my Savior
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm only goin', goin' over Jordan
I'm only goin' over home
I'm only goin' over home
GIVE ME ONE REASON
[Chorus]
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Said I don't wanna leave you lonely
You gotta make me change my mind
[Verse 1]
Baby, I got your number
Oh, and I know that you got mine
You know that I called you, I called too many times
You can call me baby, you can call me anytime
But you got to call me
[Chorus]
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Said I don't wanna leave you lonely
You gotta make me change my mind
[Verse 2]
I don't want no one to squeeze me
They might take away my life
I don't want no one to squeeze me
They might take away my life
I just want someone to hold me
Oh, and rock me through the night
[Verse 3]
This youthful heart can love you, yes
And give you what you need
I said this youthful heart can love you
Oh, and give you what you need
But I'm too old to go chasing you around
Wasting my precious energy
[Chorus]
Give me one reason to stay here
Yes, now turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here
Oh, I'll turn right back around
Said I don't wanna leave you lonely
You gotta make me change my mind
[Outro]
Baby, just give me one reason
Give me just one reason why
Baby, just give me one reason
Oh, give me just one reason why I should stay
Said I told you that I loved you
And there ain't no more to say

THE MEDLEY
What can wash away my sin
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
that saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
was blind but now I see
Oh precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow
No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
Will the circle be unbroken
by and by Lord, by and by
there's a better home a waiting
in the sky Lord, in the sky
Oh precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow
No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
I'll fly away oh glory
I'll fly away
when I die, Hallelujah by and by
I'll fly away
What can wash away my sin
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
