Home
I went back to the house
Where I was raised
The place looked a lot smaller
Then in those gone by days
The grass was not mowed
Flower beds were full of weeds
They had even cut down
That old sycamore tree
The porch where i sat with my girlfriend
On those hot summer nights
Was all littered with
Hastily discarded bikes
The house looked in need
Of a new coat of paint
How could the new owners
Let my memories fade away
Fade away
Can’t go back to the
Way it was
Time forces the past to
Fade away fade away
As i stood there a lot of
Emotions ran through my mind
Gone was that special place
My heart was hoping to find
And with it all the memories
That were created there for me
I could not catch one glimpse
Of the past i came to see
With one last look i got in the car
And started the engine
And thought it is really true
You can’t go home again.
Fade away
Can’t go back to the
Way it was
Time forces the past to
Fade away fade away
Fade away
Can’t go back to the
Way it was
Time forces the past to
Fade away fade away

Jungle
Welcome to the jungle
It’s your life day by day
You better be careful
It’s easy to lose your way
As you walk life’s short path better be sure your way is true
Cause that‘s the only way you‘re gonna make it through
You see the devil’s a hungry lion he’s always on the prowl
Waiting for the right moment to come and take you down
He’ll use your own desires to lure you into his trap
Then he’ll take your life the next step may be your last
Welcome to the jungle
It’s your life day by day
You better be careful
It’s easy to lose your way
The way to get through life the way to make a stand
Is followin’ word for word what it says in the master’s plan
All the word’s were written penned with you in mind
Cause the master knew life would be an uphill climb
This doen’t mean the devil will never be watchin’ you
Cause takin’ down a believer is his favorite thing to do
Welcome to the jungle
It’s your life day by day
You better follow the instructions
Or you will lose your way

Jungle Revisited
Welcome to the jungle
It’s your life day by day
Trying to survive
In a world that’s turned away
So you better be careful
Check the path you tread
Or you’re gonna find yourself
Walkin’ with the dead
You see the world shows
No mercy
It’ll drag you down
Tear you away from your faith
Try to keep you bound
You’ve got to run
Run through the jungle
Holdin’ onto God’s word
It’s your best defense
Mightier than the sword
The world is bathed in darkness
God’s word is the light
That will guide you through
The jungle
Till the day you get out
For now the jungle is
The devil’s domain
He’s the king of this wrold
Enjoying his reign
But the devil knows
One fact is not in doubt
His time on this earth
Is soon running out
The devil will show no mercy
He’ll try to drag you down
Put your faith in doubt
Hope to keep you bound
