Playlist B. J. Thomas

b. j. thomas - rock and roll lullaby

She was just sixteen and all alone
When I came to be
So we grew up together
My mama child and me
Now things were bad and she was scared
But whenever I would cry
She'd calm my fears and dry my tears
With a rock and roll lullaby

When she would sing sha na na na na na na na ...
It will be all right sha na na na na na....
Sha na na na na na na na ...
Now just hold on tight

Sing it to me mama (mama mama ma)
Sing it sweet and clear, oh!
Mama let me hear that old rock and roll lullaby

We made it through the lonely days
But Lord the nights were long
And we'd dream of better moments
When mama sang her song
Now I can't recall the words at all
It don't make sense to try
'Cause I just knew lots of love came thru
In that rock and roll lullaby

And she'd sing sha na na na na na na na
It will be all right
Sha na na na na na na na
Now just hold on tigh

I can hear you mama, mama, mama, mama
nothing moves my soul
like the sound of the good old rock and roll lullaby

b. j. thomas - raindrops keep falling on my head

Raindrops keep falling on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed,
nothing seems to fit
those,
raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling

so I just did me some talking to the sun,
and I said I didn't like the way he got things done,
sleeping on the job
those,
raindrops are falling on my head they keep falling

But there's one thing, I know
the blues they sent to meet me won't defeat me.
It won't be long 'till happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep falling on my head
but that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red.
Crying's not for me, cause
I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining
because I'm free
nothing's worrying me

It won't be long till happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep falling on my head
but that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red
crying 's not for me
Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining
because I'm free
Nothing's worrying me

b. j. thomas - happy man

When I die there won´t be much
To salvage from my earning,
I´ve never had a lot of land or houses to my name.
I´ve never been a corporate prince on Madison in New York

I´ve never held a dimond in my hand
But I´ve seen children laughing
As only children can,
And I´ve known my Creator;
And I´ve been a Happy Man.

I never really loved the way
I saw it in the movies
But I had myself a woman of my own.
The place we lived was modest
And we kept the yard together.
I never travelled far from my home town
But I´ve heard music playing that made me understand;
And I´ve been a Happy Man

Life has had its hard times when
I felt the chill of winter
I can´t forgert the night when
My sweet Julie slipped away.
But growing old was different than
I always thought it would be
The sweetness of my youth just grew with age
`cause I´ve known wealth and beauty
Beneath his guiding hand;
And knowing soon I´ll see Him has made me a Happy Man (bis)

b. j. thomas - songs

People I don't understand them
Never can and never could
The more I get to know them
The less I think I should
They don't mean the things they say
Or say the things they mean
You got to try and find the message
Somewhere in between
But songs are such good things
They never change their tune
They fill up lonesome evenings
And empty afternoons
Songs make such easy friends
All you do is sing along
And you can't stay a stranger to a song
Everyone seems to be moving
Moving up or moving on
Just when you try to touch them
That when you find they're gone
We pass through each others lives
Then fade into the past
You just don't know who to believe in
No one seems to last
But songs are such good things
They never change their tune
They fill up lonesome evenings
And empty afternoons
Songs make such easy friends
All you do is sing along
And you can't stay a stranger to a song
Old songs
New songs
Bright songs
Blue songs
Sweet songs
Soul songs
The rock and roll songs
Songs are such easy friends
All you do is sing along
And you can't stay a stranger to a song

b. j. thomas - long ago tomorrow

b. j. thomas - hooked on a feeling

I can't stop this feelin' deep inside of me
Girl, you just don't realize what you do to me
When ya hold me in your arms so tight
You let me know everything's all right
I-I-I, I'm hooked on a feelin'
High on believin' that you're in love with me
Lips are sweet as candy, the taste stays on my mind
Girl, you keep me thirsty for another cup of wine
I got it bad for you, girl but I don't need a cure
I'll just stay addicted and hope I can endure
All the good love when we're all alone
Keep it up, girl, yeah ya turn me on
I-I-I, I'm hooked on a feelin'
High on believin' that you're in love with me
All the good love when we're all alone
Keep it up, girl, yeah ya turn me on
I-I-I, I'm hooked on a feelin'
I'm high on believin' that you're in love with me

b. j. thomas - the word is love

Lost and feeling lonely
Had become ordinary
I was always glad to see a day go by
The darkness just got deeper
The mountains just got steeper
But when I heard the Word it changed my life

The Word is love
The Word is love
It gently touched my heart and changed my life
The Word is love
The Word is love
And I could never thank You enough

Loved and feeling worth it
'Cause You say I deserve it
I want to share this happiness I've found

You're the song I'm singing
You give my life meaning
That's why I want to spread the Word around

The Word is love
The Word is love
It gently touched my heart and changed my life
The Word is love
The Word is love
And I could never thank You enough

The Word is love
The Word is love
It gently touched my heart and changed my life
The Word is love
The Word is love
And I could never thank You enough

b. j. thomas - you gave me love

You gave me time when no one gave me time of day,
You looked deep inside while the rest of the world looked away,
You smiled at me when there were just frowns everywhere,
You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer.

Chorus:
That's why I call You Saviour ..... that's why I call You Friend,
You touched my heart ..... You touched my soul,
And helped me start all over again,
That's why I love You, Jesus ..... that's why I'll always care,
You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer.

You gave me laughter after I cried all my tears,
You heard my dreams while the rest of the world closed it's ears,
I looked in Your eyes, and I found the tenderness there,
You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer.

Chorus:
That's why I call You Saviour ..... that's why I call You Friend,
You touched my heart ..... You touched my soul,
And helped me start all over again.
That's why I love You, Jesus ..... that's why I'll always care,
You gave me love when nobody gave me a prayer.

b. j. thomas - live for jesus

Oh, I want to be remembered as a girl
Who sang her songs for Jesus Christ
Who was willing to lay down her life
And do his will, no matter what the price
Well,I´m singing for the deaf man;
Who can hear about salvation through my song
And I´m singig for the blind man;
Who can see the light in me and come along

Live for Jesus, that´s what matters
And when other houses crumble,mine strong
Live for Jesus, that´s what matters;
That you see the light in me and come along.
La,la,la...

There are times when I am tempted to
Turn off this rugged road I travel on
There are times when I say
"Jesus; can´t you find another girl to sing your song?"
Well, I know it´s not that I´m the only one
Who can sing this melody
But He´s chosen me to bless me;
And to lead me into what is best for me.

Repeat chorus twice

b. j. thomas - i just can t help believin

I just can't help believin'
When she smiles up soft and gentle
With a trace of misty morning
And the promise of tomorrow in her eyes
I just can't help believin'
When she's lying close beside me
And my heart beats with the rhythm of her sighs
This time the girl is gonna stay
This time the girl is gonna stay
For more than just a day

Oh, I just can't help believin'
When she slips her hand in my hand
And it feels so small and helpless
As my fingers fold around it like a glove

I just can't help believin'
When she's whispering her magic
And her tears are shining honey sweet with love
This time the girl is gonna stay
This time the girl is gonna stay
For more than just a day
For more than just a day

b. j. thomas - another somebody done somebody love song

It's lonely out tonight
And the feelin' just got right for a brand new love song
Somebody done somebody wrong song

Hey, wontcha play another somebody done somebody wrong song
And make me feel at home while I miss my baby, while I miss my baby

So please play for me a sad melody
So sad that it makes everybody cry-y-y-y
A real hurtin' song about a love that's gone wrong
'cause I don't want to cry all alone

Hey, wontcha play another somebody done somebody wrong song
And make me feel at home while I miss my baby, while I miss my baby

So please play for me a sad melody
So sad that it makes everybody cry-y-y-y
A real hurtin' song about a love that's gone wrong
'cause I don't want to cry all alone

Hey, wontcha play another somebody done somebody wrong song
And make me feel at home while I miss my baby, while I miss my baby

(Hey) wontcha play (wontcha play) another somebody done somebody wrong song
And make me feel at home while I miss my baby, while I miss my baby

(Hey) wontcha play (wontcha play) another somebody done

FADE

somebody wrong song
And make me feel at home while I miss my baby, while I miss my baby

b. j. thomas - you call that a mountain

I always heard about the great Atlantic
How it humbles you to stand upon it's shore
So I thought I'd take some time to go and see it
Since I had no ties upon me anymore
But I don't know what I'd wasted my time for

You call that an ocean?
To me it's just a pond that's almost dry
If you want to see an ocean
You should see the tears her leaving made me cry

So I headed west to see that famous canyon
That the Colorado cut so deep and wide
I thought seeing something lower down than I felt
Might cheer me up and ease my troubled mind
But I just got disappointed one more time

You call that a canyon?
It's nothing but a pothole in the yard
If you want to see a canyon
You should see the hole she left here in my heart

So now I stand here staring at the Rockies
I've heard they reach right up to heaven's door
They're like that little hole and that blue puddle
And I see now what I should have seen before
Without her life holds no wonders anymore

You call that a mountain?
It's just a little pile of rocks and dirt
If you want to see a mountain
You ought to try getting over her
You call that a mountain...

b. j. thomas - mighty clouds of joy

Mighty Clouds Of Joy

Those old bad dreams
been sleeping in your head.
Those old dark clouds
been hanging around your head.
But all your hard times
will vanish in the wind.
When the mighty clouds of joy come rolling in.
Ohhhh, Holy Jesus
Let your love seize us.
Oh, let us find sweet peace within .
Hallelujah !
Happiness begins,
when the mighty clouds of joy come rolling in.
Those old storm clouds
are slowly drifting by.
And those old raindrops
are fading from your eyes.
And oh, Mr. Sun,
gonna shine on us again.
When the mighty clouds of joy come rolling in.
Ohhhh, Holy Jesus.
Let your love seize us.
Oh, let us find sweet peace within.
Hallelujah !
Happiness begins,
When the mighty clouds of joy come rolling in.
Holy Jesus
Won't you let your love seize us
Let us find sweet peace within
Hallelujah!
Happiness begins,
When the mighty clouds of joy come rolling in.

b. j. thomas - happier than the morning sun

Bom bom bom I love you

I'm happier than the morning sun
And that's the way you said that it would be
If I should ever bring you inside my life.

I'm happier than the morning sun
And that's the way you said that it would be
If I should ever bring you inside my life.

All my life I was alone,
Didn't think I'd find my part,
Now I see there's joy inside your arms.

I'm happier than the morning sun
And that's the way you said that it would be
If I should ever bring you inside my life.

Bom Bom Bom
Bom bom bom I love you.

I'm happier than the morning sun
And that's the way you said that it would be
If I should ever bring you inside my life

Bom Bom Bom
Bom bom bom I love you.

Happier than the morning sun
Happier than the morning sun
Happier than the morning sun...

b. j. thomas - whatever happened to old fashioned love

We live in the modern age
Where love is fast like a turning page
In a magazine, we've hardly seen
The friends we used to know
They disappear, they come and go
Like the times we've had
It's kind of sad

Whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would see you through
The kind of love my Momma and Daddy knew
Yeah, whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would last through the years
Through the trials
Through the smiles
Through the tears

Today is all we've planned
We say tomorrow we'll understand
If it all should end
We'd be alone again

Oh, whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would see you through
The kind of love my Momma and Daddy knew
Yeah, whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would last through the years
Through the trials
Through the smiles
Through the tears

For now the tenderness
Has been replaced
With something less
And it's hard to find
What we left behind

Whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would see you through
The kind of love my Momma and Daddy knew
Yeah, whatever happened to old fashioned love
The kind that would last through the years
Through the trials
Through the smiles
Through the tears
