No Wheelchairs in Heaven
Words and Music by Corky Wise and Richard Melvin Brown (socan)
I've spent years in this wheelchair siiting along and going nowhere
The good things of life have passed me by but I'll get out of this wheelchair when I die
There will be no wheelchairs in Heaven We'll all have a new body to wear
There will be no wheelchairs in Heaven won't it be wonderful there
When I leave this old world behind I'll leave this wheelchair of mine
I'll be walking with a smile on my face when I finally get to that wonderful place
There will be no wheelchairs in Heaven We'll all have a new body to wear
There will be no wheelchairs in Heaven won't it be wonderful there
There will be no wheelchairs in Heaven We'll all have a new body to wear
There will be no wheelchairs in Heaven won't it be wonderful there
Won't it be wonderful there

Angel Tears
Words and Music by Corky Wise and Richard Melvin Brown (Socan)
VERSE 1
The most exciting things in life are free, a morning sunrise, stars at night we see
A good book say, Angels comfort thee, the Angels in Heaven are watching me
VERSE 2
Raindrops are Angel Tears from way up high, ask yourself what makes an Angel cry
Angel Tears from Heaven way up high, see Mothers killin’ babies Angels cry
CHORUS:
Raindrops from heaven are Angel Tears, washing away most of your many fears
Thank all of the Angels and do it today, tears from Heaven washed pain away
VERSE 3:
I lost a loved one who was taken today, Angel Tears washed my sadness away
Tears from Heaven helped me to get by, Angel Tears from Heaven way up high
REPEAT CHORUS twice and Tag last line:

The Son I've Never Seen
Words and Music by Corky Wise and Richard Melvin Brown
Ashamed and discouraged just the shell of a man
I'll tell you my sad story listen if you can
Whiskey from the bottle made a fool out of me
I lost a wife and a daughter and a son I may never see
Once I was so happy as a man could ever be
Everything I asked God for was given to me
A wife who loved me dearly a daughter fair as day
But I'll quite drinking from the bottle and gladly throw it away
It's been 5 long years since I've seen them it's been oh so long
And that whiskey bottle has caused me so much wrong
But I still have my hopes and my dreams that one day I will see
The son that I've never seen
Now finally I have quite drinking I've thrown the bottle away
And I'm asking God to help me through each and every day
And maybe just maybe someday I will fulfill my dream
Win back my wife and my daughter and a son I've never seen
It's been 5 long years since I've seen them it's been oh so long
That whiskey bottle has caused me so much wrong
But I still have my hopes and my dreams that one day I may see
The son that I've never seen
I pray that someday I may meet the son I've never seen

Give Me a Double
Words and Music by Corky Wise and Richard Melvin Brown (socan)
You are just someone I used to know we've had good times so long ago
Memories we shared now and then your phone call and my hurt will begin
I drink whiskey to kill the pain I drink when I hear your name
The love we had isn't the same give me a double to kill the pain
I drink whiskey in this smoke filled bar my thoughts are wondering where you are
A hurt started when I heard your name so give me a double to kill the pain
I drink whiskey to kill the pain I drink when I hear your name
The love we had isn't the same so give me a double to kill the pain
Loud country music in my ear sad tears falling in my beer
I know my heart is hurting the same so give me a double to kill the pain
I drink whiskey to kill the pain I drink when I hear your name
The love we had just isn't the same just give me a double to kill the pain
You know I drink whiskey to kill the pain I drink when I hear your name
The love we had just isn't the same please give me a double to kill the pain
Just one more double outta kill the pain

Crying My Sad Tears
Words and Music by Corky Wise and Richard Melvin Brown (socan)
I'm here by your tombstone I am crying my sad tears
I'm remembering the good times through the years
I know you can't hear me when I say that I love you
But honey please listen 'cause yah know that I do
CHORUS
I still love you after all these years
And I'm here today crying my sad tears
I hope you can't see me here down on my knees
Honey I'll be coming soon so baby wait for me please
Until then I'll be remembering the good times we had
But you know losing a loved one is so sad
And when it is our time to go home we just don't know
But you can bet when it is my turn I will surely go
REPEAT CHORUS
I'm here at your tombstone I still cry
I just hate to leave and say goodbye
But you know babe tomorrow is another working man's day
But baby keep watching for me
'Cause just maybe I'll be coming your way
REPEAT CHORUS
Tag:
I'm at your tombstone baby yah I'm still here
And I'm still crying my sad tears

Drinking Straight Whiskey
Words and Music by Corky Wise and Richard Melvin Brown (Socan)
VERSE 1:
I’m drinking straight whiskey, I know that it’s risky
But I’ll do it again today
I’m tired of your talking, I’m tired of my listening
Listening to the things you say
CHORUS:
We’ve had some bad times, we’ve had some good times
But that all changed today
No more bad times, no more good times
You said you were going away
VERSE 2:
I’m drinking straight whiskey, I know that it’s risky
But I’ll help you pack today
I’m tired of your talking, I’m tired of my listening
Listening to the things that you say
REPEAT CHORUS
VERSE 3:
I’m drinking straight whiskey, I know that it’s risky
But who buys the booze anyway
So if you’re tired of talking, I’m tired of my listening
Just leave and go on your way
REPEAT CHORUS

I Don't Want to Go Home
Words and Music by Corky Wise and Richard Melvin Brown
Hey pretty lady sitting at the bar beside me
Said you look worried how bad can it be
I said I've worked all day and I don't want to go home
Stay with me I don't want to be alone
CHORUS
I don't want to go home tonight
Everything at home's not right
I just want to sit right here on this bar stool and think
So I think I'll just stay here and drink
Her hand touched my arm and she whispered in my ear
Don't go home cowboy just stay right here
You see it always seems that fools like me
Never seem to learn so ignite your flame
Here's another bridge to burn
CHORUS
I don't want to go home tonight
Everything at home's not right
I just want to sit right here on this bar stool and think
So I think I'll just stay here and drink
CHORUS
No I don't want to go home tonight
Everything at home's not right
I just want to sit right here on this bar stool and think
So I think I'll just stay here and drink
So if you don't mind I think I'll just sit here and drink

It's How Life Goes
Words and Music by Corky Wise and Richard Melvin Brown (socan)
When you can't hear the birds sing your jumbled words say nothing
You can't smell a fresh picked rose you're getting older
It's how life goes
CHORUS
And you don't know a chicken from a duck
You've always been told to shut up
You're always wipeing your nose
You're getting older, it's how life goes
There are things that you wanted to do
Your successes in life are few
It's something everyone should know
You're getting older, it's how life goes
CHORUS
And you don't know a chicken from a duck
You've always been told to shut up
You're always wipeing your nose
You're getting older, it's how life goes
If you live life over what would you do
Things left undone would be very few
You would do things and plan for those
You're getting older, it's how life goes
CHORUS
And you don't know a chicken from a duck
Your always been told to shut up
You're always wipeing your nose
You're getting older, it's how life goes
Hey Grandpa you don't know a chicken from a duck
Your always been told to shut up
You are always wipeing your nose
Oh you're just getting older, it's how life goes
You're just getting older, it's how life goes
Grabdpa you're just getting older, it's how life goes
Do you know I love you Grandpa

Let's Part as Friends
Words and Music by Corky Wise and Richard Melvin Brown
All of the years we had together now you tell me that we are through
The troubles we had I'll get over but I'll never get over you
CHORUS
Here we go again fighting, a fight where no one wins
And if we cannot make amends and stay together as lovers
Let's try to part as friends
Now you say that we are through, and for me to find someone new
The troubles we have had I'm sure I will get over but I'll never get over you
CHORUS
Here we go again fighting, a fight where no one wins
And if we cannot make amends and stay together as lovers
Let's try to part as friends
It won't be easy to live without you, and if you think I might miss you it's true
You see the troubles we have had I'm pretty sure I will get over
But I'll never get over you
CHORUS
Here we go again fighting, a fight where no one wins
And if we cannot make amends and stay together as lovers
Let's try to part as friends

Love the Hurt Away
Words and Music by Corky Wise and Richard Melvin Brown (socan)
Our love has slowly come to it's end
And you say you'll phone me every now and then
Through my tears I watched you just up and walk away
And just like that I've lost it all today
CHORUS
I need someone to love my hurt away
I need love just a little each day
You have left me and gone on your way
And I need someone to love my hurt away
I guess I'm sleeping alone tonight in my bed
With thoughts of loving you flowing through my head
And when tomorrow comes it's just another lonely day
You know I need someone to love my hurt away
CHORUS
I need someone to love my hurt away
I need love just a little each day
You have left me and gone on your way
And I need someone to love my hurt away
I'll live to have love again I guess I'll get by
Our love is over but I still wonder why
You have left for good and gone on your way
And I need someone to love my hurt away
CHORUS
I need someone to love my hurt away
I need love just a little each day
You have left me and gone on your way
And I need someone to love my hurt away
You know I need someone to love my hurt away

My Head's In the Bottle
Words and Music by Corky Wise and Richard Melvin Brown (socan)
I worked all week for nothing for the booze took all my money
I had enough to buy this bottle but nothing left for you honey
So take the kids and go to your Mother's if you stay you know we'll fight
If I wake up sober tomorrow I'll try to set things right
CHORUS
'Cause tonight my head's in the bottle I'm drinking doubles two at a time
And I'm pretty sure I'm gonna wake up sick tomorrow but for now I'm feeling fine
- instrumental turnaround -
The world is full of dumbies and I guess I must be one too
To think more of what's in the bottle than what I think of you
I've lost my car I've lost my home I've got nothing else to lose
But I cannot blame you for my shame so I'll blame it on the booze
CHORUS
'Cause tonight my head's in the bottle I'm drinking doubles two at a time
And I'm pretty sure I'm gonna wake up sick tomorrow but for now I'm feeling just fine
CHORUS
Yes tonight my head's in the bottle I'm drinking doubles two at a time
I'll probably wake up sick tomorrow but for now I'm feeling fine
Yes now I'm feeling just fine 'cause tonight my head's in the bottle
