Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world. For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously ferverent rants of rebellion. Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.Link: [On YouTube]
Nothin’ But The Wheel
Patty Loveless
Way on past the boulevards
Out here underneath the stars
I’ve been flyin’ past the houses
Farms and fields
Leavin’ all I know back there
Rushin’ through the cold night air
And I’m on to nothin’
But the wheel
Stayin’ clear of the interstate
I’m seekin’ out those old two lanes
Tryin’ to explain
The way I feel
‘Til all at once it’s half past three
And it’s down to just the trucks and me
And I’m holdin’ on to nothin’
But the wheel
I’ve been tryin’ to drive you off my mind
Maybe that way baby I can leave it all behind
And forty-one goes on and on
And the lights go windin’ in the dawn
The sky’s the color now
Of polished steel
And the only I know for sure
Is if you don’t want me anymore
Then I’m holdin’ on to nothin’
But the wheel
And the only thing I know for sure
Is if you don’t want me anymore
Then I’m holdin’ on to nothin’
But the wheel
I’m holdin’ on to nothin’
But the wheel

The Trouble With The Truth
Patty Loveless
Oh the trouble with the truth
Is it’s always the same ol’ thing
So hard to forget
So impossible for me to change
Every time I try to fight it
I know I’ll be left to blame
Oh the trouble with the truth
Is it’s always the same ol’ thing
And the trouble with the truth
Is it’s just what I need to hear
Ringin’ so right deep down inside my ear
And it’s everything I want
And it’s everything I fear
Oh the trouble with the truth
Is it’s just what I need to hear
It has ruined the taste of the sweetest lies
Burned through my best alibis
Every sin that I deny
Keeps hangin’ ‘round my door
Oh the trouble with the truth
It is always begs for more
That’s the trouble
That’s the trouble with the truth
Trouble with the truth
That’s the trouble
That’s the trouble
That the trouble
That’s the trouble with the truth
Trouble with the truth
That’s the trouble
Trouble with the truth
And the trouble with the truth
Is it just won’t let me rest
I run and hide but there’s always another test
And I know that it won’t let me be
‘Til I’ve given it my best
The trouble with the truth
Is it just won’t let me rest
That’s the trouble
That’s the trouble with the truth
Trouble with the truth
That’s the trouble
That’s the trouble
That’s the trouble
That’s the trouble with the truth
Trouble with the truth
That’s the trouble
That’s the trouble
That’s the trouble
That’s the trouble with the truth
Trouble with the truth
That’s the trouble
That’s the trouble
That’s the trouble
That’s the trouble with the truth
Trouble with the truth

I like that first one. Sad but nice. Makes me think though, I wonder sometimes what I'm holding on to.
ReplyDeleteGreat artist. Excellent songs. Thanks. I've just spent the last hour and a half surfing Youtube listening to Patty. What a nice way to spend a quiet morning.

The first one echoes the way I have felt far too many times (in my opinion), my dear Ann. Sometimes it is better to just let go, but it sure is a painful process. Thanks for stopping by again!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by again, my dear ManOverBoard!!! As I told the lovely Ms. Ann, I have actually experienced what that first song is all about a few too many times, and the second one nails me squarely between the eyes. By the way, this blog is a labor of love. Thanks for noticing!!!
ReplyDeleteYep, that purty lady sure can sing. Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Chuck!!!
