Great Balls Of Fire

You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain too much love drives a man insane
You broke my will, but what a thrill goodness, gracious, great balls of fire
I laughed at love because I thought it was funny but you came along and moved me

Kiss me it feels good hold me well you're gonna let me love you like a lover should
You are fine, so kind got to tell this world that your mine

Jambalaya

Goodbye Joe, me gotta go, down the bayou
Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
My Yvonne, the sweetest one, me oh, my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya, crawfish pie and file gumbo
Tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, we'll have a little fun on the bayou

Thibodeaux, fontainebleau, the place is buzzing
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style, go hog wild, me oh, my oh
Son of a gun, we'll have a little fun on the bayou

Jambalaya, crawfish pie and file gumbo
Well, tonight I'm gonna see my machez amio
Pick guitar, gonna fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou

Goodnight Irene

Last Saturday night, I got married me and my wife settled down
Now me and my wife have parted I'm going to take another stroll downtown
Irene, goodnight goodnight, Irene, goodnight
Goodnight Irene goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams

Sometimes, I live in the country sometimes, I live in town
Sometimes, I take a promotion but I'll jump in the river and drown
Irene, goodnight goodnight, Irene, goodnight
Goodnight Irene goodnight Irene I'll see you in my dreams

Detroit City

I want to go home, I want to go home, Lord, I want to go home.

Last night I went to sleep in Detroit city,
And I dreamed about those cotton fields and home,
I dreamed about my mother, dear old papa, sister and brother,
And I dreamed about that girl, who's been waiting for so long
I want to go home, I want to go home, Lord, I want to go home

Home folks think I'm big in Detroit city,
From the letters that I write they think I'm fine,
But by day I make the cars, and by night I make the bars,
If only they could read between the lines
I want to go home, I want to go home, Lord, I want to go home

You know, I rode a freight train north to Detroit city,
And after all these years I find I've just been wasting my time,
So I think I'll take my foolish pride, put it on a southbound freight and ride,
Go on back to the ones I left, who've been waiting for so long
I want to go home, I want to go home, Lord, I want to go home.

You Went Back On Your Word

You said you would be mine and treat me right
You said you would love me the rest of my life
But you went back on your word
You said you would never tell me a lie
But you broke your promise you're telling me why
You went back on your word

When you were here by my side I thought that you would stay beside
I know how to play that game on me I don't know why you changed your mind
But I know that you wrap me inside I did everything that you ask of me

Now that you have left me and left me and left me what can I say
But I still love you in the same old way
But you went back on your word
You said you would never tell me a lie
But you broke your promise you're telling me why
You went back on your word
