0:08:01 > 0:08:05# And if you find something there

0:08:05 > 0:08:10# There's any way to call it love, baby

0:08:23 > 0:08:29# Than you'll ever find again

0:08:29 > 0:08:37# So before you close that old door on Jerry

0:08:37 > 0:08:41# Think about it, darlin'

0:08:44 > 0:08:49# Think about it, darlin'

0:09:02 > 0:09:06# God, you might change your mind

0:09:11 > 0:09:18# I haven't been the kind of man

0:09:47 > 0:09:52# And there's nothing good about goodbye

0:09:56 > 0:09:59# So think about it, darlin'

0:09:59 > 0:10:04# There's nothing good about goodbye

0:10:06 > 0:10:13# So think about it darlin'. #

0:10:19 > 0:10:22APPLAUSE

0:10:27 > 0:10:31# Almost heaven, West Virginia

0:10:31 > 0:10:38# Blue Ridge Mountains Shenandoah River

0:10:39 > 0:10:45# Life is old there older than the trees

0:10:45 > 0:10:50# Younger than the mountains blowing like a breeze

0:10:50 > 0:10:56# Country roads, take me home

0:10:56 > 0:11:01# To the place I belong

0:11:01 > 0:11:07# West Virginia, mountain momma

0:11:07 > 0:11:15# Take me home, country roads

0:11:15 > 0:11:21# All my memories gather round her

0:11:21 > 0:11:28# Miner's lady stranger to blue water

0:11:28 > 0:11:34# Dark and dusty painted on the sky

0:11:34 > 0:11:39# Misty taste of moonshine teardrop in my eye

0:11:39 > 0:11:45# Country roads, take me home

0:11:45 > 0:11:51# To the place I belong

0:11:51 > 0:11:57# West Virginia, mountain momma

0:11:57 > 0:12:02# Take me home, country roads

0:12:04 > 0:12:10# I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me

0:12:10 > 0:12:16# The radio reminds me of my home far away

0:12:16 > 0:12:20# And driving down the road I get a feeling

0:12:20 > 0:12:27# That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

0:12:27 > 0:12:33# Country roads, take me home

0:12:33 > 0:12:39# To the place I belong

0:12:39 > 0:12:45# West Virginia, mountain momma

0:12:45 > 0:12:49# Take me home, country roads... #

0:12:49 > 0:12:51Now everybody sing it now.

0:12:51 > 0:12:57# Country roads, take me home

0:12:57 > 0:13:03# To the place I belong

0:13:03 > 0:13:09# West Virginia, mountain momma

0:13:09 > 0:13:15# Take me home, country roads

0:13:15 > 0:13:21# Take me home now, country roads

0:13:21 > 0:13:27# Take me home now, country roads. #

0:13:27 > 0:13:31APPLAUSE

0:13:33 > 0:13:39# By the time I get to Phoenix

0:13:39 > 0:13:42# She'll be rising

0:13:47 > 0:13:54# And she'll find the note I left hangin' on her door

0:13:57 > 0:14:05# And she'll laugh when she reads the part that says I'm leavin'

0:14:09 > 0:14:17# Cos I've left that girl so many times before

0:14:22 > 0:14:27# And by the time I make Albuquerque

0:14:27 > 0:14:31# She'll be working

0:14:34 > 0:14:39# She'll probably stop at lunch

0:14:39 > 0:14:43# And give me a call

0:14:46 > 0:14:50# But she'll just hear that phone

0:14:50 > 0:14:56# Keep on ringin'

0:14:56 > 0:15:01# Off the wall

0:15:04 > 0:15:07# And that's all

0:15:09 > 0:15:14# And by the time I make Oklahoma

0:15:14 > 0:15:19# She'll be sleepin'

0:15:21 > 0:15:29# She'll turn softly and call my name out low

0:15:32 > 0:15:40# And she'll cry just to think I'd really leave her

0:15:44 > 0:15:52# Though time and time I try to tell her so

0:15:55 > 0:16:01# No, she just didn't know

0:16:01 > 0:16:07# I would really go. #

0:16:11 > 0:16:14APPLAUSE

0:16:14 > 0:16:18# Rain dripping off the brim of my hat

0:16:18 > 0:16:21# It sure is cold today

0:16:21 > 0:16:25# An' here I am walking down 66

0:16:25 > 0:16:29# Wish she hadn't done me that way

0:16:29 > 0:16:33# Sleeping under a table in a roadside park

0:16:33 > 0:16:37# A man could wake up dead

0:16:37 > 0:16:40# But it sure seems warmer than it did

0:16:40 > 0:16:44# Sleeping in our king-sized bed

0:16:44 > 0:16:47# Is anybody going to San Antone

0:16:47 > 0:16:52# Or Phoenix, Arizona

0:16:52 > 0:16:56# Any place is all right as long as I

0:16:56 > 0:16:59# Can forget I've ever known her

0:17:08 > 0:17:11# Wind whipping down the neck of my shirt

0:17:11 > 0:17:14# Like I ain't got nothing on

0:17:14 > 0:17:19# But I'd rather fight the wind and rain

0:17:19 > 0:17:22# Than what I've been fighting at home

0:17:22 > 0:17:26# Yonder comes a truck with the US Mail

0:17:26 > 0:17:30# People writing letters back home

0:17:30 > 0:17:34# Tomorrow she'll probably want me back

0:17:34 > 0:17:38# But I'll still be just as gone

0:17:38 > 0:17:42# Is anybody going to San Antone

0:17:42 > 0:17:45# Or Phoenix, Arizona

0:17:45 > 0:17:49# Any place is all right as long as I

0:17:49 > 0:17:53# Can forget I've ever known her

0:17:53 > 0:17:57# Any place is all right as long as I

0:17:57 > 0:18:01# Can forget I've ever known her. #

0:18:03 > 0:18:07APPLAUSE

0:18:17 > 0:18:20# My baby makes me proud

0:18:20 > 0:18:28# Lord, don't she make me proud

0:18:28 > 0:18:30# She never makes a scene

0:18:30 > 0:18:35# By hanging all over me in a crowd

0:18:39 > 0:18:41# Cos people like to talk

0:18:41 > 0:18:46# Lord, don't they love to talk

0:18:50 > 0:18:53# But when they turn out the lights

0:18:53 > 0:18:57# I know she'll be leaving with me

0:19:00 > 0:19:05# And when we get behind closed doors

0:19:05 > 0:19:11# And she lets her hair hang down

0:19:11 > 0:19:17# And she makes me glad that I'm a man

0:19:17 > 0:19:25# Oh, no-one knows what goes on behind closed doors

0:19:37 > 0:19:40# My baby makes me smile

0:19:40 > 0:19:44# Lord, don't she make me smile

0:19:48 > 0:19:51# She's never far away

0:19:51 > 0:19:56# Or too tired to say "I want you"

0:19:59 > 0:20:06# She's always a lady just like a lady should be

0:20:10 > 0:20:13# But when they turn out the lights

0:20:13 > 0:20:16# She's still a baby to me

0:20:20 > 0:20:26# And when we get behind closed doors

0:20:26 > 0:20:31# And she lets her hair hang down

0:20:31 > 0:20:37# And she makes me glad that I'm a man

0:20:37 > 0:20:45# Oh, no-one knows what goes on behind closed doors

0:20:48 > 0:20:56# Behind closed doors. #

0:20:56 > 0:21:01APPLAUSE

0:21:04 > 0:21:09It is my opinion that no show of mine would be complete without this song.

0:21:09 > 0:21:17# You've painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair

0:21:19 > 0:21:22# Ruby, are you contemplating going out somewhere?

0:21:26 > 0:21:31# The shadow on the wall tells me the sun is going down

0:21:35 > 0:21:42# Oh, Ruby

0:21:42 > 0:21:45# Don't take your love to town

0:21:48 > 0:21:52# It wasn't me that started that old crazy Asian war

0:21:54 > 0:21:59# But I was proud to go and do my patriotic chore

0:22:02 > 0:22:06# And yes, it's true that I'm not the man I used to be

0:22:11 > 0:22:18# Oh, Ruby

0:22:18 > 0:22:20# I still need some company

0:22:24 > 0:22:27# It's hard to love a man whose legs are bent and paralysed

0:22:34 > 0:22:38# And the wants and needs of a woman your age, really I realise

0:22:42 > 0:22:46# But it won't be long, I've heard them say, until I'm not around

0:22:51 > 0:22:57# Oh, Ruby

0:22:57 > 0:23:00# Don't take your love to town

0:23:03 > 0:23:08# She's leaving now cos I just heard the slamming of the door

0:23:11 > 0:23:15# The way I know I've heard it slam one hundred times before

0:23:19 > 0:23:23# And if I could move, I'd get my gun and put her in the ground

0:23:28 > 0:23:35# Oh, Ruby

0:23:35 > 0:23:36# Don't take your love to town

0:23:40 > 0:23:47# Oh, Ruby

0:23:47 > 0:23:49# For God's sake, turn around... #

0:23:56 > 0:24:01APPLAUSE

0:24:01 > 0:24:08# Oh, I'm 5,000 miles away from home

0:24:10 > 0:24:15# Teardrops fell on Momma's note

0:24:15 > 0:24:19# When I read the thing she wrote

0:24:19 > 0:24:25# She said, "We miss you, son We love you, come on home"

0:24:27 > 0:24:31# Well, I didn't have to pack

0:24:31 > 0:24:35# I had it all right on my back

0:24:35 > 0:24:40# Now I'm 500 miles away from home

0:24:43 > 0:24:47# Away from home, away from home

0:24:47 > 0:24:51# Cold and tired and all alone

0:24:51 > 0:24:57# Yes, I'm 500 miles away from home

0:25:00 > 0:25:04# Can't remember when I ate

0:25:04 > 0:25:08# It's just thumb and walk and wait

0:25:08 > 0:25:14# And I'm still 5,000 miles away from home

0:25:16 > 0:25:21# If my luck had been just right

0:25:21 > 0:25:25# I'd be with them all tonight

0:25:25 > 0:25:31# But I'm still 500 miles away from home

0:25:32 > 0:25:37# Away from home, away from home

0:25:37 > 0:25:41# Cold and tired and all alone

0:25:41 > 0:25:46# Yes, I'm 5,000 miles away from home... #

0:25:46 > 0:25:49APPLAUSE

0:25:56 > 0:26:01# Silver coins that jingle jangle

0:26:01 > 0:26:05# Fancy shoes that dance in time

0:26:07 > 0:26:13# Oh, the secrets of her dark eyes

0:26:13 > 0:26:17# They did sing a gypsy rhyme

0:26:18 > 0:26:24# Yellow clover in tangled blossoms

0:26:24 > 0:26:29# In a meadow silky green

0:26:29 > 0:26:35# Where she held to her bosom

0:26:35 > 0:26:36# Just a boy of seventeen

0:26:41 > 0:26:46# I recall a gypsy woman

0:26:46 > 0:26:52# Silver spangles in her eyes

0:26:52 > 0:26:57# Ivory skin against the moonlight

0:26:57 > 0:27:02# And the taste of life's sweet wine

0:27:09 > 0:27:14# Soft breezes blow from fragrant meadows

0:27:14 > 0:27:20# And stir the darkness in my mind

0:27:25 > 0:27:31# Little know who haunts my mind

0:27:31 > 0:27:37# Gypsy lady, I hear your laughter

0:27:37 > 0:27:42# And it dances in my head

0:27:42 > 0:27:48# While my tender wife and babies

0:27:48 > 0:27:54# Slumber softly in their beds

0:27:54 > 0:27:59# I recall a gypsy woman

0:27:59 > 0:28:05# Silver spangles in her eyes

0:28:05 > 0:28:10# Ivory skin against the moonlight

0:28:10 > 0:28:16# And the taste of life's sweet wine... #

0:29:17 > 0:29:20# Underneath I'm just a cotton picker

0:29:20 > 0:29:22# Pickin' out a mess of blues

0:29:22 > 0:29:25# Show me where I start

0:29:25 > 0:29:28# Find a horse and cart

0:29:28 > 0:29:31# I'm just a country boy

0:29:31 > 0:29:34# Country boy at heart

0:29:45 > 0:29:47# I may look like a bank teller

0:29:47 > 0:29:50# Pushing facts in a file

0:29:50 > 0:29:53# But I'd rather be a haul collar

0:29:53 > 0:29:56# Chewing cud on a stile

0:29:56 > 0:29:59# Show me where I start

0:29:59 > 0:30:01# Find a horse and cart

0:31:11 > 0:31:13Right, boys!

0:32:46 > 0:32:50# You were the first thing that I thought of

0:32:50 > 0:32:54# When I thought I drank you off my mind

0:32:54 > 0:32:58# When I get lost in the liquor

0:32:58 > 0:33:02# You're the only one I find

0:33:02 > 0:33:06# If I did the things I ought to

0:33:06 > 0:33:10# You still would not be mine

0:33:10 > 0:33:15# So I'll keep a tight grip on the bottle

0:33:15 > 0:33:16# Gettin' loose and killin' time

0:33:20 > 0:33:28# This killin' time is killin' me

0:33:28 > 0:33:30# Drinking myself blind thinkin' I won't see

0:33:36 > 0:33:44# That if I cross that line and they bury me

0:33:44 > 0:33:50# Well, I just might find I'll be killin' time for eternity

0:34:01 > 0:34:05# I don't know nothin' about tomorrow

0:34:05 > 0:34:10# I've been lost in yesterday

0:34:10 > 0:34:14# I spent all my life just dying for

0:34:14 > 0:34:18# A love that passed away

0:34:18 > 0:34:22# There's an end to all my sorrow

0:34:22 > 0:34:26# This is the only price I'll pay

0:34:26 > 0:34:30# I'll be a happy man when I go

0:34:30 > 0:34:36# And I can't wait another day

0:34:36 > 0:34:44# An' this killin' time is killin' me

0:34:44 > 0:34:47# Drinking myself blind thinkin' I won't see

0:37:09 > 0:37:12# And one day when she asked me

0:37:12 > 0:37:14# If I loved her

0:37:14 > 0:37:18# I said "Baby, what's it worth to you?"
