Those neon signs are burnin' bright tonight
They got the music cranked up
Gettin' down with some ??
I'd like to shake the hand of the man
Who designed those rocky Janes
You oughta see them on the dance floor
Shake that thing
Shake that thing
Oh, let the music move you
Come on and shake that thing
It's something you can groove to
Shake it left, shake it right into the middle
Clap your hands, stomp your feet with a wiggle
Listen to the words and sing
Shake that thing
It's like a little kid in a big old candy store
Watchin' those sweet things slidin' across the floor
It's a honky tonk playground
And I've found more swings than I've ever seen
You oughta see them on the dance floor
Shake that thing
Shake that thing
Oh, let the music move you
Come on and shake that thing
It's something you can groove to
Shake it left, shake it right into the middle
Clap your hands, stomp your feet with a wiggle
Listen to the words and sing
Shake that thing
Oh what I wouldn't give to be your bodyguard
I wish I had a swing like that in my backyard
Shake that thing
Oh, let the music move you
Come on and shake that thing
It's something you can groove to
Shake it left, shake it right into the middle
Clap your hands, stomp your feet with a wiggle
Listen to the words and sing
Shake that thing
Yeah, shake that thing (shake that thing)
Yeah, shake that thing (shake that thing)
Yeah, shake that thing (shake that thing)
(Michael Britt/Richie McDonald/Frank Myers)
I hear the sound of gentle rain
Like teardrops on the windowpane
A priceless smile in a wooden frame beside the bed
I stare at the ceiling and talk to the walls
I lay here alone and imagine it all
As a river of memories rush through my head
I can almost taste your kiss as I think about how much I miss
Your hungry eyes, your satin skin
The sound of your voice whisperin'
The love I feel inside your heart
When you're wrapped up in my arms so close
That's what I miss the most
I try to rest but sleep won't come
My body aches and my mind is numb
Shadows fall as the morning sun begins to rise
Another day without you here
Has it been weeks or has it been years
I find it getting harder to keep track of time
I breath in and I breath out but it's getting tough to live without
Your hungry eyes, your satin skin
The sound of your voice whisperin'
The love I feel inside your heart
When you're wrapped up in my arms so close
That's what I miss the most
What I miss the most
I can almost taste your kiss as I think about how much I miss
Your hungry eyes, your satin skin
The sound of your voice whisperin'
The love I feel inside your heart
When you're wrapped up in my arms so close
That's what I miss the most
Brothers Wilber and Orville Wright
Built wings out of wood and steel
Folks said that thing'll never fly
They said watch, I bet it will
We've been dyfyin' gravity now goin' on a hundred years
It was paper wings, faith and dreams
That's how we got from there to here
A nickel brought a soda pop way back then
And a movie only cost a dime
He came home with a scar and a purple heart
She waited all that time
Today they'll cut a golden wedding cake
How'd they made it all those years
It had to be tough, they just said it was love
That's how they got from there to here
You either do or you don't believe
That it can or can't be done
An ounce of faith and a touch of grace
And it can happen to anyone
Four boys, lotsa noise, two-car garage
Hey, turn those guitars down
They couldn't know that the world would grow
In time to love that sound
They headed out, in a beat up van
And a U-Haul packed full of gear
The road was long, but the will was strong
That's how they got from there to here
Yeah, they got a bus but you can bet they'd walk
Just to hear another crowd cheer
It was a song and a prayer and a lotta luck and you
(Richie McDonald/Robbie Cheuvront/Chris Waters)
Twenty bucks buys ten coupons
Two ears of corn and one ride on
The tilt-a-whirl with your favorite girl
Keep on walking down the midway
Three-eyed goats and games to play
Step right up, Carney says try your luck
You can tell the sweet smell of summer in the air
Whole town shuts down, everybody's gonna be there
Down at the county fair
Big time, big top, big crowds, big hair
There's nothing bigger all around
The country anywhere
Than the county fair
Judging pigs and judging pies
Fighting for the first place prize
And have you seen this year's queen
4-H Club and FFA working toward a better day
And a petting zoo, yeah, they got that too
And eight o'clock rolls around, everybody knows
The grandstands open up and it's time for the big show
Down at the county fair
Big time, big top, big crowds, big hair
There's nothing bigger all around
This country anywhere
Than the county fair
Down at the county fair
Big time, big top, big crowds, big hair
There's nothing bigger
All around this country anywhere
Than the county fair
Down at the county fair
Big time, big top, big crowds, big hair
There's nothing bigger
In small towns everywhere
Than the county fair
County fair
Yeah, county fair

Walking through life without clouds above me
Never thought I'd find someone to love me
Lost in the crowd, never felt so lonely
And I really living and barely holding
Onto a dream of what could be
It only took one taste of your kiss
Now I know everything that I've missed
My heart is beating for the first time
Anticipating your every touch
Intoxicating me with your love
And I'm so high
And you're the reason why, oh
Walking on clouds and finally laughing
I never believed that this could happen
You found a place I never knew existed
Two souls embrace with no resistance
Just in time, you've saved my life
It only took one taste of your kiss
Now I know everything that I've missed
My heart is beating for the first time
Anticipating your every touch
Intoxicating me with your love
And I'm so high
And you're the reason why
You're why
Oh, you're the reason why
You're the reason why, yeah
It only took one taste of your kiss
Now I know everything that I've missed
My heart is beating for the first time
Anticipating your every touch
Intoxicating me with your love
And I'm so so high
And you're the reason why
Riding restless under a broken sky
A weary traveler something missing inside
Always looking, for a reason to turn around
Desperate for a little peace of mind
Just a little piece of what I left behind
Well I've found it now
You're like comin' home
You're like a Sunday morning
Pleasing my eyes
You're a midsummer's dream
Under a star soaked sky
That peaceful easy feelin'
At the end of a long long road
You're like comin' home
You're like comin' home
Go ahead and let your hair fall down
This wanderlust, it's gone now
Here in your arms I'm safe from the world again
These are the days they can't be erased
Baby there isn't a better place
You're like heaven
You're like comin' home
You're like a Sunday morning
Pleasing my eyes
You're a midsummer's dream
Under a star soaked sky
That peaceful easy feelin'
At the end of a long long road
You're like comin' home
You're like comin' home
You're that innocence
That serenity
Presents underneath the tree
Candles burning bright
Stockings hung with lots of care
On this silent Christmas night
What makes this season magical
Is what made my dream come true
Just seeing you
To be here with you
Oh this Christmas time
Is the best one ever
The greatest gift in life
Is you and me together
And I thank heaven for sending you here tonight
This Christmas time
Some people hope for rings of gold
All that money buys
Children have their list of toys
Prayin' Santa gets it right
The one thing I wish for
Came true when you walked in
To hear you laugh again
To see you smile again
Oh this Christmas time
Is the best one ever
The greatest gift in life
Is you and me together
And I thank heaven for sending you here tonight
Oh this Christmas time
Oh this Christmas time
Is the best one ever
The greatest gift in life
Is you and me together
And I thank heaven for sending you here tonight
Sending you here tonight
I like your look in that sweater
All warm and bundled up tight
But I keep picturing something a little different tonight
I see you in a bikini
One lazy toe in the pool
Layed back and sippin' on something long, tall and cool
Yeah, I can't wait for a warm breeze blowin'
Green grass growin' and the bright sunshine
Short sundress with your long legs showin'
I can't wait for the summertime
Oh the summertime
I'm gonna find us some tickets
To a tropical isle
You just see if your mama can keep the kids for awhile
We'll take our drinks with umbrellas
We'll take a room with a view
I'm gonna take my sweet time makin' love to you
That's what I'm gonna do
I can't wait for a warm breeze blowin'
Green grass growin' and the bright sunshine
Short sundress with your long legs showin'
I can't wait for the summertime
Feel your body next to mine
In the summertime
Yeah, I can't wait for a warm breeze blowin'
Green grass growin' and the bright sunshine
Short sundress with your long legs showin'
I can't wait for the summertime
Oh I can't wait for a warm breeze blowin'
Green grass growin' and the bright sunshine
Short sundress with your long legs showin'
I can't wait for the summertime
Feel your body next to mine
In the summertime
Summertime
Summertime
Monday was a bummer, Tuesday was another day
They could've left out of the week
Wednesday nearly got me, Thursday all but stopped me
I was broken down and beat
Then I started feelin' strong when Friday finally came along
T.G.I.F you know what that means
Get down to the beach A.S.A.P
Yea, there's gonna be a party goin' all weekend
Polynesian Polly and her parrot head friends
Gonna stay until there's not a pina colada left T.G.I.F
Yea, there's ain't no stoppin' once the band starts rockin'
With them shaker things and big steel drums
Don't worry half as much about the tide risin' up
As we do 'bout getting low on rum
So bury me in the sand, put a frozen drink in my hand
T.G.I.F you know what that means
Get down to the beach A.S.A.P
Yea, there's gonna be a party goin' all weekend
Polynesian Polly and her parrot head friends
Gonna stay until there's not a pina colada left T.G.I.F
Yea, T.G.I.F you know what that means
Get down to the beach A.S.A.P
Yea, there's gonna be a party goin' all weekend
Five O'clock none stop the fun begins
T.G.I.F., you know what that means
Get down to the beach A.S.A.P
Yea, there's gonna be a party goin' all weekend
Polynesian Polly and her parrot head friends
Gonna stay until there's not a Pina Colada
Got us a situation
It don't need no explanation
It don't take a scientist
To figure out just what this is
Unlike the changing seasons
Love happens without reason
It's as simple as that
Two people meet it's destiny that they're together
It's as simple as that
I knew when I met you that this would last forever
It's as simple as that
And I can promise you that I will leave you never
I'm happy right where I'm at
It's as simple as that
It's how I feel when you call my name
It's holdin' hands in the pouring rain
A slow dance that never ends
The sweet sound of violins
And even when we're apart
You beat around in my heart
It's as simple as that
Two people meet it's destiny that they're together
It's as simple as that
I knew when I met you that this would last forever
It's as simple as that
And I can promise you that I will leave you never
I'm happy right where I'm at
It's as simple as that
It's as simple as that
Two people meet it's destiny that they're together
I knew when I met you that this would last forever
And I can promise you that I will leave you never
I'm happy right where I'm at
It's as simple as, it's as simple as that
It's as simple as that
It's as simple as that
O holy night, the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth.
The thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees,
Oh, hear the angel voices
O night divine,
O night when Christ was born
O night divine,
O night, O night divine,
The thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees,
Oh, hear the angel voices
O night divine,
O night when Christ was born
O night divine,
O night, O night divine,
I got a black book full of numbers
All the makings of a real hot summer
Radio cranked up a rockin'
A week's pay burning a hole in my pocket
I got everything I need, almost
Everything I need I'm this close
Everything I need wouldn't you know
The only thing I lack is you and a ragtop Cadillac
I got my new boots off of layaway
It's Friday night and I'm ready to play
It's full of quarters for the telephone
A '65 chevy from a friend on loan
I got everything I need, almost
Everything I need I'm this close
Everything I need now wouldn't you know
The only thing I lack is you and a ragtop Cadillac
I got everything I need, almost
Everything I need I'm this close
Everything I need wouldn't you know
The only thing I lack is you and a ragtop Cadillac
You and a ragtop Cadillac
Sideways, cockamamie
The idea is just a little too brainy
That a fine girl like you would
Bumpety-bump with a midnight fool
I took the fall in a neon minute
You were there and I feel right in it
Uh-oh, it just hit me
The rattlesnake if love done bit me
I'm goin' down, getting dizzy
Can't get enough of your kissy, kissy
No cure, I don't want one
Oh baby, this must be love
Lunchtime and I eat a sandwich
I think of you and the world starts to vanish
Call you up from a cell phone
Smack in the middle of a blasting zone
You get me so excited
I can't wait for my fuse to be lighted
Uh-oh, it just hit me
The rattlesnake if love done bit me
I'm goin' down, getting dizzy
Can't get enough of your kissy, kissy
No cure, I don't want one
Oh baby, this must be love
You got me lost in a wonderland
Love songs played by a marching band
Lips like roses, skin like cream
Please don't wake me from this dream
Uh-oh, it just hit me
The rattlesnake if love done bit me
I'm goin' down, getting dizzy
Can't get enough of your kissy, kissy
No cure, I don't want one
Who knows where this road will end
What you're gonna miss
Life's not long enough
To spend it on regrets
All I know is what I'm seein' in your eyes
Hold me close before the moment passes by
If ever there was a night
If ever the time was right
It's now
Nothing else matters
If ever a meant to be
Truly was meant to be
It's us
Right here, right now
Say a million other dreams
Haunt you in your sleep
It's hard to know which ones
Are the ones that you should keep
But look around
Don't get caught up in the past
Put your faith in the ones you think will last
If ever there was a night
If ever the time was right
It's now
Nothing else matters
If ever a meant to be
Truly was meant to be
It's us
Right here, right now
If ever there was a night
If ever the time was right
It's now
Nothing else matters
If ever there was a night
If ever the time was right
It's now
Nothing else matters
If ever a meant to be
Truly was meant to be
It's us
Right here, right now
Right now
Oh yeah
Yeah oh yeah
The only ground I ever owned was sticking to my shoes
Now I look at my front porch and this panoramic view
I can sit and watch the fields fill up
With rays of glowing sun
Or watch the moon lay on the fences
Like that's where it was hung
My blessings are in front of me
It's not about the land
I'll never beat the view
From my front porch looking in
There's a carrot top who can barely walk
With a sippy cup of milk
A little blue eyed blonde with shoes on wrong
'Cause she likes to dress herself
And the most beautiful girl holding both of them
And the view I love the most
Is my front porch looking in, yeah
I've traveled here and everywhere
Following my job
I've seen the paintings from the air
Brushed by the hand of God
The mountains and the canyons reach from sea to shining sea
But I can't wait to get back home
To the one he made for me
It's anywhere I'll ever go and everywhere I've been
Nothing takes my breath away
Like my front porch looking in
There's a carrot top who can barely walk
With a sippy cup of milk
A little blue eyed blonde with shoes on wrong
'Cause she likes to dress herself
And the most beautiful girl holding both of them
Yeah the view I love the most
Is my front porch looking in
I see what beautiful is about
When I'm looking in
Not when I'm looking out
There's a carrot top who can barely walk
With a sippy cup of milk
A little blue eyed blonde with shoes on wrong
'Cause she likes to dress herself
And the most beautiful girl holding both of them
Yeah the view I love the most
Oh, the view I love the most
Is my front porch looking in
Yeah
Oh, there's a carrot top who can barely walk
(From my front porch looking in)
A little blue eyed blonde with shoes on wrong, yeah
And the most beautiful girl
(Beautiful girl
From my front porch looking in)
Holding both of them
I've got this dream that won't go away
When I close my eyes your there night and day
Baby whatever it takes I've gotta find you
Are you someone I know or that I'll meet by chance
Are you somewhere close or in a far away land
Across the ocean or burnin' sand, I've gotta find you
I've gotta find you
Don't care how long it takes
I know when I do it'll be worth the wait
With God as my witness and love as my guiding star
Maybe Miami on some sandy beach
New York City making waves on wall street
No matter where you are
I've gotta find you
I've gotta find you
You could be a checker at the grocery store
For all I know you're the girl next door
One thing I know for sure, I've gotta find you
You might be a waitress workin' your way through school
Or the anchor person on the six o'clock news
Only my heart knows who, I've gotta find you
I've gotta find you
Ddon't care how long it takes
I know when I do it'll be worth the wait
With God as my witness and love as my guiding star
Maybe Miami on some sandy beach
New York City making waves on wall street
No matter where you are
I've gotta find you
No matter where you are
I've gotta find you
Standing at the mirror rinsing off my razor
Wish I was still in bed
You're sneaking up behind me
With nothing but a towel on
You start breathing down my neck
If you don't wanna spend the rest of this day
Lying the dark, driving each other crazy
Careful where you kiss me
I love your sweet good morning baby hugs
But you know how your soft lips tear me up
Careful where you kiss me
You know the buttons you know where to push em
And which ones turn me on
You're putting me on the spot
No, baby, don't stop
Cause girl, I'm not that strong
I don't know how far you want this to go
But, baby, I just might lose control
Careful where you kiss me
I love your sweet good morning baby hugs
But you know how your soft lips tear me up
Careful where you kiss me
I love your sweet good morning baby hugs
But you know how your soft lips tear me up
Careful where you kiss me
Oh, careful where you kiss me
Yeah, careful where you kiss me
Oh, careful where you kiss me
Oh, careful where you kiss me
Lotta people talkin' 'bout
Givin' up and walkin' out
These days
Made up their minds don't want the hurt
They're resigned not to do the work
It takes
Well whatever happened to hangin' on
And goin' the extra mile
Whatever happened to believin'
Let's bring it back
A true love that lasts
Let's take a chance
At spending a lifetime together
In a slow dance
In a deep trance
In a romance
Let's bring it back
Used to be a simple thing
All it took was a simple dream
And love
And when the ride got a little rough
You'd buckle down, stick it out
And rise above
Well, whatever happened to knowin'
That we kept the promise made
Whatever happened to those days
Let's bring it back
A true love that lasts
Let's take a chance
At spending a lifetime together
In a slow dance
In a deep trance
In a romance
Let's bring it back
The kissin', the laughin', the passion
Let's bring it back
That's what two hearts should have
In a slow dance
In a deep trance
In a romance
Let's bring it back
In a slow dance
All that romance
Here's the keys to my heart
Honey drive me crazy
Take me anywhere you wanna go
Here's the keys to my heart
Honey drive me crazy
Fill it up with love and let it roll
I gotta admit it's been wrecked a time or two
A little t.l.c. and it'll be brand spanking new
Honey slide on in, I'll let you take it for a spin
You'll like the way it feels when you get behind the wheel
Here's the keys to my heart
Honey drive me crazy
Take me anywhere you wanna go
Here's the keys to my heart
Honey drive me crazy
Fill it up with love and let it roll
If you hear little knocking it might be skipping a beat
When it's hugging those curves, it just might overheat
It's got a lifetime guarantee, a hot rod built for speed
So go ahead and let if fly, you'll love the way it rides
Here's the keys to my heart
Honey drive me crazy
Take me anywhere you wanna go
Here's the keys to my heart
Honey drive me crazy
Fill it up with love and let it roll
Here's the keys to my heart
Honey drive me crazy
I can't quote the Bible
I skipped Sunday school
And I can't count the times I fell, and broke the golden rule
So I don't know if he listens
Sometimes I wonder if he cares
But maybe I'm just wishin'
'Cause I can't even prove he's there
(chorus)
But I pray
He'll watch over my children
I Pray
Just to be a better man
To find the strength to rise above
To be there for the ones I love
To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day
I pray
I confess that I don't bow my head as often as I should
Mostly just when times are bad, rarely when they're good
And I don't hold with too much preachin'
But I was raised up to believe
That a man can't ever stand as tall
As when he gets down on his knees
(2nd Chorus)
So I pray
For a world that's gone half crazy
I pray
For ever woman, child and man
To find the strength to rise above
To teach each other how to love
To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day
I pray
I pray
I got to have a shot of what you got is oh so sweet
You got to make it hot like a boomerang I need a repeat
Oh gimme all your lovin' all your hugs and kisses too
Gimme all your lovin' don't let up until we're through
You got to whip it up and hit me like a ton of lead
If I blow my top will you let it go to your head
Oh oh oh gimme all your lovin'...
[ guitar ]
You got to move it up and use it like a screwball would
You got to pack it up work it like a new boy would
Oh gimme all your lovin'...
Yeah gimme all your lovin' all your hugs and kisses too
Gimme all your lovin' don't let up until we're through until we're through
[ guitar ]
Gimme all your lovin'...
Hey, we're walkin' through this together
And I'm holdin' onto you
Nothin' can separate
This little twist of fate
You're the one my heart belongs to
Nothin's quite as sweet as the journey
So let's go around the world
Takin' in everything no matter what life brings
We're gonna be chasin' forever
All the way
To the end
All my life
And back again
Every day
I'll be here
Loving you
All through the years
And it's true
There's so much freedom in knowin'
How sure we are that we're goin'
All the way
People ask me think y'all can make it
And I tell them honestly
This ain't no fleeting thing
We're not imagining
This is it, we know it's meant to be
'Cause I love you, love you competely
I've never felt like this
I don't want nothin' but
Something that's passionatev 'Cause the only way I know how to love is
All the way
To the end
All my life
And back again
Every day
I'll be here
Loving you
All through the years
And it's true
There's so much freedom in knowin'
How sure we are that we're goin'
All the way
All the way
There's so much freedom in knowin'
How sure we are that we're goin'
All the way
All the way
All the way
His name was Travis, hers was Vanessa
Two Texas kids from west of Odessa
Young love and lust defy rational thinkin'
They were hotter than an oil field on fire
When you're that young everything's crucial
You don't wait around for parental approval
So he asked the question and she answered yes
They jumped in his truck and tore out for Juarez
They had an informal wedding south of the border
Got a room with a view for three bucks and a quarter
On a Mexican night you don't care what might lie ahead
They had a wonderful week in Juarez
Now, when the bottom fell out of his chosen vocation
They were too broke to move to a greener location
Bills you can't pay put a strain on devotion
They decided to just call it quits
Well, it might have been luck or divine intervention
But on the way to the lawyer divorce wasn't mentioned
He said I still love you, she looked at him
And said I know a great way to start over again
They had an informal wedding south of the border
Got a room with a view for three bucks and a quarter
On a Mexican night you don't care what might lie ahead
They had a wonderful week in Juarez
His name was Travis, hers was Vanessa
I'm dreamin' tonight of a place I love
Even more then I usually do
And although I know it's a long road back
I promise you
I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents under the tree
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light beams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light beams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
I remember that kiss in a cold world, oh girl
Sunlight fell from your lips, tenderly you shattered me
Somehow you touched me like no one else
Slipped into my soul like a prayer
Baby, with the sweetest kiss
You came along and stole my breath
Tore down my defenses with a whisper
Oh you showed me how love can be
You broke through to my heart
Softly, baby softly
You're like God in this world, fragile, beautiful
There's so much trust in your eyes, they make me remember blue
Skies and sunshine
I wanna be what you see in me
I wanna love you the way you love me
Baby, with the sweetest kiss
You came along and stole my breath
Tear down my defenses with a whisper
Oh you show me how love can be
You break through to my heart
Softly
I don't wanna be that strong if it means being alone
I wanna stay with you where I belong
And let you show me just how good love can be
You break through to my heart
Softly, baby softly
She introduced herself as Amy, said call me Caroline for short
I just moved in three doors down so I wouldn't be the girl next door
And I knew the shoes she wasn't wearing fit her just right
She said, "Hey, man did you know that somebody left your grass out in the yard all night?"
She's unusually unusual
Absolutely unpredictable
She's so different and that's what's wonderful
She's unusually unusual
And that's beautiful to me
She had a tattoo above her ankle of a trident submarine
She said it symbolizes awesome powers hidden deep within our dreams
And her diamond eyes, different in color, held me captive in their light
And she said "Hey, man did you know we used to be brothers in some past life?"
She's unusually unusual
Absolutely unpredictable
She's so different and that's what's wonderful
She's unusually unusual
And that's beautiful to me
Some people may think she's strange, a different cup of tea
But she just does it for me
She's unusually unusual
Absolutely unpredictable
She's so different and that's what's wonderful
She's unusually unusual
I've waited all of my life to find my destiny
Then like a sunrise appears, you came to me
I never knew it before that I could feel this way
I thought I'd lost my faith
But since you captured my heart
I can say, oh, that...
Love can change your mind, I know
Love can move your heart and soul
And just when you think
Hope has gone and left you behind
Love can change your mind
Picture it if you will, heaven right here on earth
Suddenly, everything's new
Now, I can see what believing was worth, oh, 'cause...
Love can change your mind, I know
Love can move your heart and soul
And just when you think
Hope has gone and left you behind
Love can change your mind
I was so lost and alone
I felt like my angels had flown away
But now my heart has come home
And I know that it's here to stay, oh, 'cause...
Love can change your mind
And just when you think
Hope has gone and left you behind
Love can change your mind, I know
Love can move your heart and soul
And just when you think
Hope has gone and left you behind
He called her on the road from a lonely cold hotel room
Just to hear her say, "I love you one" more time
But when he heard the sound
Of the kids laughin' in the background
He had to wipe away a tear from his eye
A little voice came on the phone
Said, "Daddy when you comin' home?"
He said the first thing that came to his mind
I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
I'm your imaginary friend
And I know, I'm in your prayers
Oh I'm already there
She got back on the phone
Said, "I really miss you darlin'"
"Don't worry about the kids they'll be alright
Wish I was in your arms, lyin' right there beside you"
"But I know that I'll be in your dreams tonight
And I'll gently kiss your lips
Touch you with my fingertips
So turn out the light and close your eyes"
I'm already there
Don't make a sound
I'm the beat in your heart
I'm the moonlight shinin' down
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there 'til the end
Can you feel the love that we share?
Oh I'm already there
We may be a thousand miles apart
But I'll be with you wherever you are
I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there 'til the end
Can you feel the love that we share?
Oh I'm already there
Ooh, when I see her in my tee shirt
Brushin' her teeth, dancin' to the radio
Ooh, her coffee and her kissin'
The way she looks at me, I hate to see her leave
But I sure love watchin' her go
Every little thing she does
Every little thing she does
I keep fallin' in love with every single simple
Ordinary little thing she does
Ooh, paintin' on her toenails
Watchin' TV, got her mama on the telephone
Ooh, in a corner at a party
She puts down her drink, gives me a little wink
And says wait 'til I get you home
Every little thing she does
Every little thing she does
I keep fallin' in love with every single simple
Ordinary little thing she does
Listenin' to her breathe, watchin' her when she sleeps
The bubbles in her bath, the funny little laugh
Oh yea, oh yea, oh yea
Every little thing she does
Every little thing she does
I keep fallin' in love with every single simple
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
So I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you
So I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you
So you say your love's about to end
You say you can't take no more
She's out the door
And your looking for a friend
Who am I to tell you why
But I'm just curious, were you furious
Or did you swallow your pride
And look her in the eye and
Tell her that you love her
Tell her that you need her
Tell her that you want her to stay
Reassure her with a kiss
She may never know unless you
Show her what your feeling
Tell her you're believing
Even though it's hard to say
'Cause she needs to know you're thinking of her
So open up and tell her that you love her
Brother I've been right where you are now
And my heart was broke
'Cause I never spoke
Those healing words out loud
But I've learned my lesson well
And now every night
Before I close my eyes
I look at my woman and
I ask myself did you
Tell her that you love her
Tell her that you need her
Tell her that you want her to stay
Reassure her with a kiss
She may never know unless you
Show her what your feeling
Tell her you're believing
Even though it's hard to say
'Cause she needs to know you're thinking of her
So open up and tell her that you love her
Tell her that you love her
Tell her that you love her
Tell her that you need her
Tell her that you want her to stay
Reassure her with a kiss
She may never know unless you
Show her what your feeling
Tell her you're believing
Even though it's hard to say
'Cause she needs to know you're thinking of her
So open up and tell her that you love her
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on, our troubles will be far away
Here were are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more
Through the years we all will be together
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.
Here were are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more
Through the years we all will be together
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
Every time our eyes meet
This feeling inside me
Is almost more than I can take
Baby, when you touch me
I can feel how much you love me
And it just blows me away
I've never been this close to anyone or anything
I can hear your thoughts, I can see your dreams
I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby, I'm amazed by you
The smell of your skin
The taste of your kiss
The way you whisper in the dark
Your hair all around me
Baby, you surround me
You touch every place in my heart
Oh, it feels like the first time every time
I wanna spend the whole night in your eyes
I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby, I'm amazed by you
Every little thing that you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life
With you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Oh, every little thing that you do
Baby, I'm amazed by you
I can see it in your eyes
You're livin' a troubled life
And you've been hurtin' more and more these days
You don't have to hide it
Don't even have to fight it
Baby all you have to do is just turn and walk away
When you're tired of it all
And tears need to fall
You back's to the wall
Come cryin' to me
You don't have to be strong
You don't have to hold on
You've been there too long
Come cryin' to me
I'll leave the living room light
Burning all night
No don't even pack
Don't even look back
Baby come cryin' to me
You can get beyond this
All those empty promises
They don't have to hold you down no more
Nothin' to explain to me
You don't even need a key
All you gotta do is knock and I'll unlock the door
When you're tired of it all
And tears need to fall
You back's to the wall
Come cryin' to me
You don't have to be strong
You don't have to hold on
You've been there too long
Come cryin' to me
I'll leave the living room light
Burning all night
No don't even pack
Don't even look back
Baby come cryin' to me
I'll leave the living room light
Burning all night
No don't even pack
Don't even look back
Baby come cryin' to me
Baby come cryin' to me
Well you say your daddy is a real cool dude and you keep no secrets from him
Well he knows you got a wild hair knows your kinda out there and knows about your crazy friends
And he done found out about the night you snuck out with the Cadillac keys
But darlin' does your daddy know about me
Well he knows you been skippin' them Sunday school meetings
He's heard how fast you drive
Knows you got an attitude seen your little tattoo but he lets all that slide
And I bet my boots that he think he knows you from A to Z
But darlin' does your daddy know about me
Well do you think he's got a clue about the things we've been doing underneath the moon and stars
And how the ground starts shakin' from the poundin' of our hearts
Yeah, like a good daddy should he's warned you about the wolves and told you about the birds and bees
But darlin' does your daddy know about me
Well do you think he's got a clue about the things we've been doing underneath the moon and stars
And how the ground starts shakin' from the poundin' of our hearts
Yeah, like a good daddy should he's warned you about the wolves and told you about the birds and bees
But darlin' does your daddy know about me
What Child is this, who lays to rest,
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring Him praise,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh;
Come, peasant king, to own Him.
The King of Kings salvation brings;
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring Him praise,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, oh haste to bring Him praise,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
Have you ever had one of those days
When you wake up feeling good
So good that you can take the whole world on
Or one of those days when you just know no matter what
Nothing in the world could go wrong
Well, that's the way I feel this morning
But, baby, I just gotta say
I always have one of those days
After one of those nights, just like last night
Oh, my, what a beautiful thing, just you and me
Those tangled sheets were wrapped around us
Baby, thanks to your love it was one of those nights
That leads to one of those days
That leads right to one of those nights
Have you ever had one of those smiles
You just can't wipe away the sweet anticipation's too strong
One of those smiles you wear all day
Cause you can taste the kiss of passion waiting back home
Well, that's the one I'm wearing right now
But, baby, you always leave one of those smiles on me
After one of those nights, just like last night
Oh, my, what a beautiful thing, just you and me
Those tangled sheets were wrapped around us
Baby, thanks to your love
It was one of those nights that leads to one of those days
That leads right to one of those nights
Oh, one of those nights, just like last night
Oh, my, what a beautiful thing, just you and me
Those tangled sheets were wrapped around us
Baby, thanks to your love it was one of those nights
One of those nights, just like last night
Oh, my, what a beautiful thing, just you and me
Those tangled sheets were wrapped around us
Baby, thanks to your love
It was one of those nights that leads to one of those days
That leads right to one of those nights
One of those nights
Oh, one of those nights, just like last night
Oh my what a beautiful thing, just you and me
Those tangled sheets were wrapped around us
Baby, thanks to your love
It was one of those nights, just like last night
Oh, my, what a beautiful thing, just you and me
Those tangled sheets were wrapped around us
You got your feet squeezed into heels that hurt
Cause they go with the job and they go with the skirt
You gotta look good when you're out there
Climbing ladders
You go above and beyond and then way beyond that
You do it all, yeah, you wear every hat
Hoping someone that matters will realize you matter
But all that really matters is it's Friday
And the sun is shining over my way
Toss your heels in the backseat
Drive home in your barefeet
Throw in that Van Morrison Cd
Chip away a little by little
Til you find your groove
I'll pick up some takeout, we can just hang out
Levis and wine, blankets and lights down
Lay your head right here on my shoulder
And just be you when you're with me
Girl, you got nothing to prove
I could listen all night if you wanna talk
Or we can lay here and say nothing at all
I already know who you are and that I love you
So, baby, take a long deep breath and exhale
Cause all you gotta be tonight is yourself
Toss your heels in the backseat
Drive home in your barefeet
Throw in that Van Morrison Cd
Chip away a little by little
Til you find your groove
I'll pick up some takeout, we can just hang out
Levis and wine, blankets and lights down
Lay your head right here on my shoulder
And just be you when you're with me
Girl, you got nothing to prove
You got nothing to prove
I'll pick up some takeout, we can just hang out
Levis and wine, blankets and lights down
Lay your head right here on my shoulder
And just be you when you're with me
Girl, you got nothing to prove
When we're together you got nothing to prove
You got nothing to prove, you got nothing to prove
Everywhere I look lately the only the thing I see
Is some advertisers telling me what I'm supposed to be
At the movies on my radio, on my TV screen
Someone's selling someone's yelling it makes me want to scream
My brain is ringin'
It's getting harder and harder to think through all this . . .
Noise
I've gotta get out of this noise
I can't even hear my own voice
It's drivin' me crazy, somebody save me
I've gotta turn down this noise
I need some peace and quiet just one minute to relax
All the information junkies keep distorting all the facts
If you dial this toll free number it's all within your reach
We'll all be rich and skinny while we're dancin' on the beach
The truth is still out there
But it's getting harder and harder to hear through all this . . .
Something keeps telling me
This ain't how it's meant to be
Why can't we stop this noise
We've gotta stop this noise
Somebody save me
Why do I do this to myself
Why do I want the one that wants somebody else
Don't you know
I'd get my heartbroke every day if I could
Why do I always take the fall
I'd rather have you hurtin' me than not have you at all
Don't you know
I'd get my heartbroke every day if I could
If I could
Don't you know
I'd get my heartbroke every day if I could
Another night out with the guys
Waiting for my heart to mend
Then you walk back in my life and it falls apart again
Ain't no doctor in this world
Gonna cure what's ailing me
I keep aching for you girl and it's such sweet misery
Why do I do this to myself
Why do I want the one that wants somebody else
Don't you know
I'd get my heartbroke every day if I could
If I could
Don't you know
I'd get my heartbroke every day if I could
Don't you know
I'd get my heartbroke every day if I could
Take it home son
Spring break, Bamboo Bill's, the sun was smolderin' hot
We looked like two lobsters that washed up
Huntin' a place to cool off
I slid my Red Stripe over, next to her Corona and lime
Buffet in the background, laughed until sundown
Danced until' closin' time
Over two bottles of beer we watched the sun disappear
I knew I thought she was cool and could tell she dug me
I could go on 'bout that first kiss
But it really all started with
Two bottles of beer
Gulf breeze, Mississippi moon, a billion stars above
Half a mile down the beach, from that little tiki hut
Stopped in our tracks when we found out that
We both went to school at UT
Only catch was, she was from Texas, I was from Tennessee
By the time the tide had rolled in and rolled out
When I go home for Christmas I've done made up my mind
Gonna do some things I wish I'd done back once upon a time
Everybody in the whole place is gonna know my name
I'll blow in like a hurricane and then blow out just the same
Paint "Seniors" on the water tower
I got the paint, I got the power
Do everything that I wish I'd done back then
Better late than never they say
Can't let the moment slip away
I'm gonna finally take my chances when I go home again
Gonna call old Frankie Walker and ask him if he might
Meet me at the dragstrip and he can eat my dust tonight
I'm gonna look up Laura what's her name and finally make it clear
I studied every square inch of her legs our junior year
Everybody's got some things they wish they'd said or done
I'm gonna do my best to do 'em everyone
Gonna finall tell my mama about that Friday night
I didn't trip and fall, I got that shiner in a fight
And if I get my courage up I might just spill the beans
Changing partners
And changing my mind
Anyone who got to close
Got left behind
Same song and dance
Night after night
Trying to hold out and holding on time
Then you came waltzing in
Like a wild west Texas wind
I swore I'd never fall again
Then you came waltzing in
Picking 'em up and spinning them around
Well it's hard to keep your feet on the ground
I made up my mind to leave love alone
And keep stepping lightly with a heart made of stone
Then you came waltzing in
Like a wild west Texas wind
I swore I'd never fall again
Then you came waltzing in
I swore I'd never fall again
Fire, smoke, bad joke
That's what my life's been turned into
Hurt, cry, pray to die
That's all that I've got left to do
Without you
I feel my heart go up in flames
Without you
Nobody's here to see me cry
Or wipe the teardrops from my eyes
Without you
I'm the only one I've got left
And I can't live with myself
Without you, oh without you
Guilt, shame, I'm to blame
For all the pain I put you through
Cold, stoned, mind blown
There's nothin' left for me to lose
Without you
I feel my heart go up in flames
Without you
Nobody's here to see me cry
Or wipe the teardrops from my eyes
Without you
I'm the only one I've got left
And I can't live with myself
Without you, oh without you
Time goes by
Still, I'm
Without you
I feel my heart go up in flames
Without you
Nobody's here to see me cry
Or wipe the teardrops from my eyes
Without you
I'm the only one I've got left
And I can't live with myself
Sometimes I feel just like a fly in a soup bowl
Sometimes I feel like I'm on top of a heap
Sometimes I feel like I'm the king of the castle
Sometimes I feel like just a bump on a street
I got my highs and lows
Some days it's touch and go
But baby, this I know
When you're with me
I feel like singing
It's like I'm swinging the whole planet on the end of my chain
Oh, when you kiss me
My head starts spinnin'
It's like you're sending the adrenaline
Straight to my brain
And it feels right as rain
All my worries wash away
When you're with me
You are a lazy summer day on a porch swing
You are a night running wild on the town
My red Ferrari racing me down a back street
My pick-me-up when I'm a little bit down
No matter where I go, whatever dice I roll
Baby, this I know
When you're with me
I feel like singing
It's like I'm swinging the whole planet on the end of my chain
Oh, when you kiss me
My head starts spinnin'
It's like you're sending the adrenaline
Straight to my brain
And it feels right as rain
All my worries wash away
When you're with me
I got my highs and lows
Some days it's touch and go
But baby, this I know
When you're with me
I feel like singing
It's like I'm swinging the whole planet on the end of my chain
Oh, when you kiss me
My head starts spinnin'
It's like you're sending the adrenaline
Straight to my brain
And it feels right as rain
All my worries wash away
She got a pair of pink and purple high-heel shoes
And a baby doll t-shirt that says "I got issues"
She got holes in her jeans in all the right places
Let's just say she's downright curvaceous
She's wild...wild...wild as my wildest dreams
Yeah she's wild...if you know what I mean
She's wild as the wild wild west
But here's the part I love the best
That girl only gets wild with me
She loves to drop the top on her red VW
And the truckers looking down they love it too
She blows 'em a kiss just to get their air horns blowin'
Any more than that they'd never get to where they're going
Sunday picnic, summer afternoon
Red hot sun, spicy barbeque
Working up a sweat by the riverside
She says let's get wet, it's skinny-dipping time
I hear the sound of gentle rain
Like teardrops on the windowpane
A priceless smile in a wooden frame beside the bed
I stare at the ceiling and talk to the walls
I lay here alone and imagine it all
As a river of memories rush through my head
I can almost taste your kiss as I think about how much I miss
Your hungry eyes, your satin skin
The sound of your voice whisperin'
The love I feel inside your heart
When you're wrapped up in my arms so close
That's what I miss the most
I try to rest but sleep won't come
My body aches and my mind is numb
Shadows fall as the morning sun begins to rise
Another day without you here
Has it been weeks or has it been years
I find it getting harder to keep track of time
I breath in and I breath out but it's getting tough to live without
Your hungry eyes, your satin skin
The sound of your voice whisperin'
The love I feel inside your heart
When you're wrapped up in my arms so close
That's what I miss the most
What I miss the most
I can almost taste your kiss as I think about how much I miss
Your hungry eyes, your satin skin
The sound of your voice whisperin'
The love I feel inside your heart
When you're wrapped up in my arms so close
I still remember the night we met
You said you loved my smile
But your love for me was like a summer breeze
Oh, it lasted for a while
I could hold on a little tighter I know
But when you love someone you gotta let 'em go so
I'm gonna smile
'Cause I want to make you happy
Laugh, so you can't see me cry
I'm gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
I'm gonna smile
Kiss me once for the good times, baby
Kiss me twice for goodbye
You can't help how you don't feel
And it doesn't matter why
Give me a chance to bow out gracefully
'Cause that's how I want you to remember me
I'm gonna smile
'Cause I want to make you happy
Laugh, so you can't see me cry
I'm gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
I'm gonna smile
I'm gonna smile
So you can find the courage
Laugh, so you won't see me hurtin'
I'm gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
