Not every song thatwill be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian”in the eyes of this world. For some willbe anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviouslyferverent rants of rebellion. Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (inone way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear themessage.

Leavin’ Louisiana in the Broad Daylight
The Oak Ridge Boys
Mary took to runnin’
With a travelin’man
Left her mommacryin’
With her head inher hands
Such a sad case
So broken hearted
She say
Momma I gotta go
Gotta get outtahere
Gotta get outta town
Tired of hangin’around
I gotta roll on
Between the ditches
It’s just anordinary story
‘Bout the waythings go
Around and around
Nobody knows
But the highway
Goes on forever
That ol’ highway
Rolls on forever
Lord
She never would’vedone it
If she hadn’t gotdrunk
If she hadn’tstarted runnin’
With a travelin’man
If she hadn’tstarted takin’
Those crazy chances
She say
Daughter let metell you
‘Bout the travelin’kind
Everywhere he’sgoin’
Such a very shorttime
He’ll be long gone
Before you know it
He’ll be long gone
Before you know it
She say
Never have I knownit
When it felt sogood
Never have I knewit
When I knew I could
Never have I doneit
When it looked soright
Leavin’ Louisiana
In the broaddaylight
This is down in theswampland
Anything goes
It’s alligator bait
And the bars don’tclose
It’s the real thing
Down in Louisiana
Did you ever see aCajun
When he really gotmad
When he really gottrouble
Like a daughtergone bad
It gets real hot
Down in Louisiana
Well the strangerbetter move it
Or he’s gonna getkilled
He’s gonna have toget it
Or a shotgun will
It ain’t no time
For lengthyspeeches
There ain’t no time
For lengthyspeeches
She say
Never have I knownit
When it felt sogood
Never have I knewit
When I knew I could
Never have I doneit
When it looked soright
Leavin’ Louisiana
In the broaddaylight
She say
Never have I knownit
When it felt sogood
Never have I knewit
When I knew I could
Never have I doneit
When it looked soright
Leavin’ Louisiana
In the broaddaylight
It’s just anordinary story
‘Bout the waythings go
Around and around
Nobody knows
But the highway
Goes on forever
That ol’ highway
Rolls on forever

Y’all Come Back Saloon
The Oak Ridge Boys
She played
Tambourine
With a
Silver jingle
And she must haveknown the words
To at least amillion tunes
But the one mostrequested
By the man she knewas Cowboy
Was the last nightbenediction
At the Y’all ComeBack Saloon
In a voice soft andtremblin’
She’d sing her songto Cowboy
As a smoky halocircled ‘round
Her raven hair
And all the fallenangels
And pinball playin’rounders
Stopped the gamesthat they’d been playin’
For losers evenin’prayer
Faded Love
And faded memories
How they linger
In her mind
Miles and years playedthe Cowboy
Like an old melody
Out of tune
And out of time
Every night in theshadows
Thinkin’ back onAmarillo
He’d dream ofbetter days
And ask for FadedLove
Liftin’ high hisglass in honor
Of the lady and hersong
He paid his checkthen lonely walked
That broken cowboyhome
She played
Tambourine
With a
Silver jingle
And she must haveknown the words
To at least amillion tunes
But the one mostrequested
By the man she knewas Cowboy
Was the last nightbenediction
At the Y’all ComeBack Saloon
She played
Tambourine
With a
Silver jingle
And she must haveknown the words
To at least amillion tunes
But the one mostrequested
By the man she knewas Cowboy
Was the last nightbenediction
At the Y’all ComeBack Saloon
She played
Tambourine
With a
Silver jingle
And she must haveknown the words
To at least amillion tunes
But the one mostrequested
By the man she knewas Cowboy
Was the last nightbenediction
At the Y’all ComeBack Saloon
