6. _ Son of Hickory Holler's Tramp
The Son Of Hickory Holler's Tramp
O see Smith
From the vinyl album "O see Smith's Greatest Hits"
Oh, the path was deep and wide
From footsteps leading to our cabin
Above the door there burned a scarlet lamp
And late at night a hand would knock
And there would stand a stranger
Yes, I'm the son of Hickory Holler's tramp
Yeah, the weeds were high, the corn was dry
When daddy took to drinking
Him and Sally Walker, they up and ran away
Then Momma shed a silent tear
And promised fourteen children
"I swear you'll never see a hungry day"
When Momma sacrificed her pride
The neighbours started talking
But we were much too young
To understand the things they said
All we really cared about
Was Momma's chicken dumplings
And a goodnight kiss
Before we went to bed
Oh, you know, the path was deep and wide
From footsteps leading to our cabin
Above the door there burned a scarlet lamp
And late at night a hand would knock
And there would stand a stranger
Yes, I'm the son of Hickory Holler's tramp
When Daddy left and destitution
Came upon our family
Not one neighbour volunteered
To lend a helping hand
So just let 'em gossip all they want
She loved us, and she raised us
The proof is standing here
A full grown man
Last summer Momma passed away
And left the ones who loved her
Each and every one is
More than grateful for their birth
And each Sunday she receives
A big bouquet of fourteen roses
With a card that reads
'The Greatest Mom on Earth'
Oh, you know, the path was deep and wide
From footsteps leading to our cabin
Above the door there burned a scarlet lamp
And late at night a hand would knock
And there would stand a stranger
Yes, I'm the son of Hickory Holler's tramp

9. _ Daddy's Little Man
I'm a neanderthal man
You're a neanderthal girl
Let's make neanderthal love
In this neanderthal world
I'm a neanderthal man
You're a neanderthal girl
Let's make neanderthal love
In this neanderthal world
I'm a neanderthal man
You're a neanderthal girl
Let's make neanderthal love
In this neanderthal world
I'm a neanderthal man
You're a neanderthal girl
Let's make neanderthal love
In this neanderthal world

16. _ Baby I Need Your Loving
Baby, I need your lovin';
Baby, I need your lovin';
Although you're never near,
Your voice I often hear.
Another day, 'nother night,
I long to hold you tight,
'Cause I'm so lonely.
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'.
Baby I need your lovin';
Got to have all you lovin'.
Some say it's a sign of weakness
For a man to beg.
Then weak I'd rather be,
If it means having you to keep,
'Cause lately I've been losing sleep.
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'.
Baby I need your lovin';
Got to have all you lovin'.
Lonely nights echo your name,
Oh, sometimes I wonder
Will I ever be the same?
Oh yeah! When you see me smiling,
You know things have gotten worse.
Any smile you might see has all been rehearsed.
Darling, I can't go on without you.
This emptiness won't let me live without you;
This loneliness inside, darling,
Makes me feel half alive.
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'.
Baby I need your lovin';
Got to have all you lovin'.
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'.
Baby I need your lovin';
Got to have all you lovin'.
Baby, I need your lovin'
Got to have all your lovin'.
Baby I need your lovin';
Got to have all you lovin'.

17. _ Friend, Lover, Woman, Wife
She's a friend, she's a lover, she's a woman, she's a wife.
She's the answered prayer ev'ry lonely man dreams of.
She's a temptress, she's a lady, she's the mother of my baby.
I thank God I'm the lucky man she loves.
Sometimes I lie awake and watch her sleeping;
and I just wanna bust and the teardrops fill my eyes.
And I wonder what she'd think if she woke up and caught me weeping;
'cause daddies and heroes ain't supposed to cry.
The morning always seems to catch us laughing
with the baby in the bed between us, safe and warm.
And I thank the Lord above for all the good times that I'm having
wrapped up in my woman's loving arms.
She's a friend, she's a lover, she's a woman, she's a wife.
She's the answered prayer ev'ry lonely man dreams of.
She's a temptress, she's a lady, she's the mother of my baby.
I thank God I'm the lucky man she loves.
And when the load gets heavy on my shoulders;
and I can't keep the pace, and I need a place to hide,
I run home to my own little world and take her in my arms,
and hold her; and I soon forget there's another world outside.
'cause she's a friend, she's a lover, she's a woman, she's a wife.
She's the answered prayer ev'ry lonely man dreams of.
She's a temptress, she's a lady, she's the mother of my baby.
I thank God I'm the lucky man she loves.
I thank God I'm the lucky man she loves.

20. _ Help Me Make It Through the Night
Take the ribbon from your hair
Shake it loose and let it fall
Layin' soft upon my skin
Like the shadows on the wall
Come and lay down by my side
Till the early mornin' light
All I'm takin' is your time
Help me make it through the night
I don't care who's right or wrong
I don't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow
Lord tonight I need a friend
Yesterday is dead and gone
And tomorrow's out of sight
And it's sad to be alone
