James Hugh Calum Laurie, OBE (born 11 June 1959), known as Hugh Laurie (/ˈhjuː ˈlɒri/), is an English actor, voice artist, comedian, writer, musician, recording artist, and director. He first became known as one half of the Fry and Laurie double act, along with his friend and comedy partner Stephen Fry, whom he joined in the cast of Blackadder and Jeeves and Wooster from 1987 to 1999.
From 2004 to 2012, he played Dr Gregory House, the protagonist of House, for which he received two Golden Globe awards, two Screen Actors Guild awards, and six Emmy nominations. As of August 2010, Laurie is the highest paid actor in a drama series on US television. He has been listed in the 2011 Guinness Book of World Records as the highest paid actor ever in a TV Drama—earning US$ 700,000 per episode in House—and for being the most watched leading man on television.
Laurie was born in Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. The youngest of four children, Laurie has an older brother named Charles and two older sisters named Susan and Janet. He had a somewhat strained relationship with his mother, Patricia (née Laidlaw). His father, Ran Laurie, was a medical doctor who also won an Olympic gold medal in the coxless pairs (rowing) at the 1948 London Games.
She put away her rings, gathered up her things
Dusted off her wings and said goodbye
She left without a care, left the walls so bare
With more than my fair share of tears to cry
Way down deep I'm wondering
What on earth went wrong
My world's not returning
So I must move on
Starting over again
New set of silverware, new set of friends
It's hard as hell if you don't know where to begin
Starting over again
Down at the grocery, lots of folds like me
Buy one, get one free, but it's all in vain
The only thing on sale is day old bread gone stale
And broken hearts that fail to play the game
Round and round in circles
It's an up hill climb
Step by step I'm learning
One day at a time
Starting over again
New set of silverware, new set of friends
It's hard as hell if you don't know where to begin
Starting over again
Damage that's been done, it's time to rise above
I've got to look ahead for the sake of love
Everybody's doing it, it must be some new rend
Starting over again
I came home from college to see my old man
He was sittin' on the porch swing, with a book in his hand
He stared at my earring, and at my tattoo
He smiled and shook his head and said, "It's good to see you"
He chose his words carefully 'cause it was hard for me to come
And he knew I had to temper and where I got it from
I waited for the sermon, the one I knew so well
But this time he wasn't preachin' about Heaven or Hell
He said, "A real man knows the value of a woman"
A real man has got nothin' to prove
He's strengthened by love and the Lord up above
So do the best that you can to be a real man
Could it be that I saw just a glimpse of his soul
Or maybe losin' mama had just taken it's toll
He gave me his bible, stained with tears he had cried
And I opened up the cover where he wrote inside
And it said, "A real man knows the value of a woman"
A real man has got nothin' to prove
He's strengthened by love and the Lord up above
So do the best that you can to be a real man
Love, oh, love, oh careless love
Love, oh, love, oh careless love
Love, oh, love, oh careless love
You see what love has done to me
I'd love my mama and papa too
I'd love my mama and papa too
I'd love my mama and papa too
I'd leave them both to go with you
What, oh what, will mama say
What, oh what, will mama say
What, oh what, will mama say
When she learns I've gone astray
Once I wore my apron low
Once I wore my apron low
Once I wore my apron low
I couldn't scarcely keep you from my door
Now my apron strings don't pin
Now my apron strings don't pin
Now my apron strings don't pin
You pass my door and you don't come i
It's Everything But Partytime
(Wiedlin/Schock)
This is the place for celebrating
This is the crowd that's fascinating
This is the time for concentrating
To hear some words worth translating
He's rapping 'bout his meditating
She's dying for some medicating
And though I shouldn't be complaining
What's lacking here is entertaining
CHORUS
We're all looking for a good time
But what we get is empty rhyme
When everything's right but nothing's fine
It's everything but partytime
Talk about decorating
A room that needs sophisticating
When coversations become straining
No one's good at interest feigning
CHORUS
By my song you'll know the heart that's in me
By my song you'll know that I am here
Just words and notes together, but long after I'm gone
You will know I loved you by my song
By my song you will always be remembered
You'll live on just as you are right now
Your eyes won't lose their sparkle to the ages they'll belong
The world will know I loved you by my song
In these simple rhymes of mine
You will stay till the end of time
And in this tune where love abounds
Well, someday you'll come back around
By my song, as long as love is not forgotten
On and on we'll sail beyond the years
Just words and notes together, to the ages they'll belong
The world will know I loved you by my song
There's too much on my mind,
There's too much on my mind,
And I can't sleep at night thinking about it.
I'm thinking of the time,
There's too much on my mind,
It seems there's more to life than just to live it.
There's too much on my mind,
And there is nothing I can say.
There's too much on my mind,
And there is nothing I can do
About it,
About it.
My thought just weigh me down,
And drag me to the ground,
And shake my head till there's no more life in me.
It's ruining my brain,
I'll never be the same,
My poor demented mind is slowly going.
There's too much on my mind,
And there is nothing I can say.
There's too much on my mind,
And there is nothing I can do
About it,
About it.
There's too much on my mind.
I know you'll do it
Do it for this
One day you'll think he's the one.
You'll follow him over oceans
He'll promise you the world
He will parade you around the seas
He'll murmur his affections, his devotion
He will convince you to leave the deep
He'll promise you the world
If you do it anyway,
Why would you do it for love
If you do it anyway,
Why would you do it for love
If you do it anyway,
Why would you do it for love
Do it for
Love
You will ride the ocean
Nobody's given you
You will ride the ocean
Nobody's given you
Your legs fell the first to needles and pins
And then your voice mmmm
You promised him you'd come back forever
He promised you the world
If you do it anyway,
Why would you do it for love
If you do it anyway,
Why would you do it for love
If you do it anyway,
Why would you do it for love
If you do it anyway,
Would you do it for love
Do it for
Love
(Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland, Jr.)
Ooh baby love, my baby love
I need you, oh how I need you
But all you do is treat me bad
Break my heart and leave me sad
Tell me, what did I do wrong
To make you stay away so long
'Cause baby love, my baby love
Been missing ya, miss kissing ya
Instead of breaking up
Let's do some kissing and making up
Don't throw our love away
In my arms why don't you stay
Need ya, need ya
Baby love, ooh, baby love
Baby love, my baby love
Why must we seperate, my love
All of my whole life through
I never loved no one but you
Why you do me like you do
I get this need
Ooh, ooh, need to hold you
Once again, my love
Feel your warm embrace, my love
Don't throw our love away
Please don't do me this way
Not happy like I used to be
Loneliness has got the best of me
My love, my baby love
I need you, oh how I need you
Why you do me like you do
After I've been true to you
So deep in love with you
Baby, baby, ooh 'til it's hurtin' me
'Til it's hurtin' me
Ooh, baby love
Don't throw our love away
Don't throw our love away
There was a time I was not so certain
All the games I played just multiplied the hurtin'
Mixed emotions
Never knowing right from wrong
I kept it all inside
Pretending to be strong
I'm a woman, to myself I must be true
Finally I believe I know just what to do
I'm standin' up, willin' and I'm able
Now I'm standing up for the first time in my life
I'm standing up, now I'm ready for love
I was pushed around until I came to find
My insecurity was just a state of mind
Even though I only had myself to blame
Now I've learnt to trust my heart
And I'll never be the same
I'm a woman, but just like anybody else
I've got a lot to give, don't wanna keep it to myself
I'm standin' up, willin' and I'm able
Now I'm standing up for the first time in my life
I'm standing up, now I'm ready for love
You told me today that you quit your girlfriend
I'd be the next one to ease on in
You promised me it would be just us two
I'd be the only girl kissin' on you
Now you got a girl, but you still want me
Remember nothing in life is free
If you want your cake and eat it too
Come here, boy, let me show you what to do
Why don't you just kiss me
Hold it a long time
Hold it, don't turn it loose now
Hold it a little bit longer now
Hold it, go, hold it, yeah
Now ease up off me and get back
You made me a deal, and you're gonna stick to it
You shouldn't have promised if you wasn't gonna do it
You saw me and ran in another direction
I'll teach you to play with my affection
I played mistress for too long
Now your butt is mine plus your old girl's gone
Gimme with your all, and don't try to front
So don't act dumb, boy, you know what I want
Come on now, give it here
You never should have promised to me
Give it here, don't say nothin'
Just give it here, don't hold back now
Give it here, go
Yeah, the boy tried to flip on us, Pep
Yeah, well put him in check!
I've got ya now, and I ain't lettin' go
Payday's now cuz I said so
Forget about all the other girls cuz ya can't have none
Cuz it's time to collect not a check but fun
I want you to kiss me
Hold it a long time
Hold it, don't turn it loose now
Hold it a little bit longer now
Hold it, go, hold it, yeah
Hold it, ow
Now ease up off me and get back
You don't, you won't
No way I say
You didn't, you doesn't
You isn't, you wasn't
You wouldn't, you couldn't
You oughn't, you shouldn't
Love nobody but me
You're mine, not his
You are, you is
I mean it, I seen it
I did it, I done it
I do, you knew
You can't, you shan't
Love nobody but me
That's all, that's it
I ain't jealous of the fellas
That you hang around with
Don't pay no mind
And I'm telling you one more time
You don't, you won't
No way I say
You didn't, you doesn't
You isn't, you wasn't
You wouldn't, you couldn't
You oughn't, you shouldn't

Love nobody but me
You're mine, you are
I mean, I seen it
I did it, I done it
You knew you shouldn't
Love nobody but me
Love nobody but me
Love nobody but me
I been run down, I been lied to,
I don't know why I let that mean woman make me a fool.
She took all my money, wrecked my new car.
Now she's with one of my goodtime buddies,
They're drinkin' in some crosstown bar.
Sometimes I feel, sometimes I feel,
Like I been tied to the whipping post,
Tied to the whipping post,
Tied to the whipping post,
Good lord, I feel like I'm dyin'.
My friends tell me, that I've been such a fool,
And I have to stand by and take it baby, all for lovin' you.
Drown myself in sorrow, and I look at what you've done.
But nothin' seems to change, the bad times stay the same,
And I can't run.
Sometimes I feel, sometimes I feel,
Like I been tied to the whipping post
Tied to the whipping post,
Tied to the whipping post,
Good lord, I feel like I'm dyin'.
Sometimes I feel, sometimes I feel,
Like I been tied to the whipping post
Tied to the whipping post,
Tied to the whipping post,
Good lord, I feel like I'm dyin'.
[Verse 1:]
Hey Bosco, what did you do
To make so many men hate you
You think you're right, they say you're wrong
They've been hassling you for way too long
[Chorus:]
Going out it made you a star
Going out but going too far
Going out expressing your point of view
[Verse 2:]
Hey Bosco, what did you do
To make so many cops want you
They think they're right; you say they're wrong
They've been hassling you for way too long
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
(Point of view)
Well I don't want to fake it
And I know you're gonna make it
But you don't have to take it all...
Well bring on the band
And the melody man
Let the mockingbirds sing along
It's a wonderful life
And the night is young
Well ladies and gents
The gala presents
A symphony in disguise
It's a wonderful thing
The clouds in your eyes
I'll do my song and dance for your this night
I'll sing you things you came to hear
I'll do my song and dance for you this night
I'd walk a mile to see you cheer
Well life is a song
That goes on and on
From Pittsburgh to Peru
It's a wonderful world
Here with you
I'll do my song and dance for your this night
I'll sing you things you came to hear
I'll do my song and dance for you this night
I'd walk a mile to see you cheer
This is my song and dance for you this night
I've walked a mile to see you cheer
My Ship (2 choices)
My ship up here is sinkin'
but this is what I am
and I'd tell you what I'm thinkin'
if I thought you'd give a damn
and I don't know a single one of you
but you feel like a winter's rain
tell me would listen to the words I speak
if I knew you all by name
it's niether here nor there
cause I still wake up in my hotel room
with this smokey barroom in my clothes and hair
every night is different
every night's the same
ain't if funny how each of us
has his own way to kill the pain
makes me think of my friend Jimmy
who never could behave
he bought a Gator skateboard
with the money that he saved
he rode that 4 wheeled surfin' board around
till he was old enough to shave
then it was replaced by a '69 LaSabre
he'd putter off to schol
as fast as that thing would get
and all the kids would say
here comes Jimmy in that beat up piece of shit
he used to take up 2 whole spaces
in the senior parking lot
yea now Jimmy's doin' seven years
for stickin' up a subway sandwich shop
so crawl beneath your words
say what's on your mind
tell it like it is
don't get stuck behind
cause its the truth you know,
that gets you by
it's not who or what you know,
it's why
so straddle that old fencepost
and fade it down to nothing
and you'll see
you might see
that my ship up here is sinkin'
but this is what I am
and I'd tell you waht I'm thinkin'
if I thought you gave a damn
so take this in or don't
I don't really care
you will or you won't
2 choices in the air...
Who Am I?
(Words music by R. Goodman)
When I think of how He came so far from glory
Came to dwell among the lowly such as I
To suffer shame and such disgrace
On Mount Calvary take my place
Then I ask myself this question
Who am I?
Who am I that The King would bleed and die for?
Who am I that He would pray not my will, Thine Lord?
The answer I may never know
Why He ever loved me so
That to an old rugged cross He'd go
For who am I?
When I'm reminded of His words
I'll leave you never
If you'll be true I'll give to you life forever
Oh I wonder what I could have done
To deserve God's only Son
To fight my battles until they're won
For who am I?
Who am I that The King would bleed and die for
Who am I that He would pray not my will, Thine Lord
The answer I may never know
Why He ever loved me so
That to an old rugged cross He'd go
For who am I?
That to an old rugged cross He'd go, for who am I?
A boy alone in his mind he looks to the sky.
His home, the desert, this life to him a lie.
Not knowing tomorrow, or what he will face,
Led by a droid across the Jundland waste!!
A wizard old man, a myth of today.
Through him Luke sees the Force, the way.
A cry for help from a princess in white.
Her only hope for salvation, in rebellion they fight!!
Through the Emperor's evil, a dark lord is born.
From good to evil, his soul has been torn.
The Jedi but gone, his faith turned to black,
Their technology they prize, but faith they lack.
A ruthless slaughter of millions of lives,
A sudden silence of countless cries.
They seek the ones who threaten their way,
The alliance strong, they seize the day!!
Sacrifice for freedom.
A new hope is born.
Power of humanity.
Life, what's supposed to be.
Eulogize your heroes.
Hold your head high.
Through all of our yesterdays.
A new hope is born!!
A mission of hope is under way,
The plan's the key, to yesterday.
Two warriors meet, the circle complete.
The great one will fall, to become a martyr for all.
A weakness found, now is time to attack.
Impossible plan but there is no turning back.
The Force with them and the will to succeed.
The victory, humanity, through darkness they exceed!!
Sacrifice for freedom.
A new hope is born.
Power of humanity.
Life, what's supposed to be.
Eulogize your heroes.
Hold your head high.
Through all of our yesterdays.
A new hope is born!!
Who is it?
Who'll get the sting
Who'll get the stripes
Black and yellow
A dangerous creature
Chattering wings
Flashing antennae
Who is it?
It buzzes fine
The bee
Buzzes fine, stings deep
I play a frightened little game
I eject myself at scary speed
In front of cars and i go yeaah!
She is it
She's got the sting
She's dangerous
She stings
He gets stung
He is out
She gets the honey
She is it
She flies great
The bee
Flies great, stings deep
The cars freeze from fright,
When they see my beautiful body and tongue
Then I speed away but no one catches me.
I'm the fastest bee in town.
Oh, hot bee
Queen of heaven
With glossy trunk
Buzz to me
I want to be stung
I want to be out
Here is the honey
You're it
It stings deep
The bee
Stings deep, kills fast
Sorrow is a lonely road
Where the rain like your tears
Beats heavy on the roof above your head
Tomorrow is a lovers' town
That's been beaten down
And the hands of winter holds the life we've led
Instead of drowning in despair
For I find small comfort in a bottle
When we're apart
Don't let the teardrops rust your shining heart
I used to drive all night for you
While the children were asleep
And as the dawn broke on your room
Back into my house I'd creep
Where my husband slept alone
Of course he must have known
But we always hide the truth
For fear of losing what we own
So don't forget the words that we choose
And constantly misuse
They were written down every time we were apart
Don't let your teardrops rust your shining heart
Toutes les femmes sont des reines ...
But some are more eager than others.
Some shatter a man's dream
By breaking away from their lover.
Cette chanson pour cette reine
Qui dit
You know.. life is funny..
If you don't repeat the actions of your own success
you won't be successful
You gotta know your own formula, your own ingredients
What made you, YOU..
1987 I was at the Latin Quarters
Listenin to Afrika Bambaata give the order
The call of the order was to avoid the slaughter
He said, Record companies ain't got nuttin for ya!
Without a lawyer, he taught The Infinity Lessons
In how hip-hop could be a, many a blessing
And that was great, so in 1988
there was no debate, we had to end the hate
The name of the game was Stop the Violence
and unity, knowledge, and self-reliance
We - started talkin bout Martin and Malcolm
Had these ghetto kids goin, Huh, what about him
1989, Professor Griff speaks his mind
but his freedom of speech is declined
1990 came with the West coast
East coast, West coast, who is the best coast
Lookin back now, of COURSE it was bogus
The whole argument was where we lost focus
We got hopeless; not with the lyrics and music
but with hip-hop, and how we used it
Or abused it, you know how the crew get
You like it cause you choose it
1991, we opened our eyes
with Human Education Against Lies, we tried
to talk about the state of humanity
But all these others rappers got mad at me
They called me Captain Human , another message was sent
Self Destruction don't pay the {fuckin} rent
Remember that Nobody wanted conscious rap
It was like - where these ballers at
Where can they call us at All was wack
Hip-Hop culture was fallin flat and that was that
So in 1992, I found my crew
They said, Yo Kris, what you wanna do
I said, Damn - why they wanna get with me
If I bust they {shit} I'm contradictory.
If I play the bitch role, they take my shoe.
Tell me what the {fuck} am I supposed to do
So I did it, don't stop get it get it get it
All of a sudden these critics they wanna spit it
Kay Are Ess One is con-tra-dic-to-ry
Just cause I wouldn't let these rappers get with me
{Fuck} that, {fuck} you and {fuck} your pen
If a rapper wanna diss, yo I'd do it again
But I'm makin these ends, and I got my friends
And I really don't wanna have to sit in the pen
So I go back to the philosopher
1993 hip-hop is uhh.. wack
Go back, check the facts
1994, Return of the Boom Bap
It wasn't all about the loot
It was all about Harry Allen Rhythm Cultural Institute
Blowin up, 1995
Conscious rap is still alive
But nobody wanna play it, nobody wanna say it
Nobody okayed it, they'd all rather hate it
1996 it really don't stop
We put together somethin called the Temple of Hip-Hop
Not just DJin, breakin, graf and lyrics
But how hip-hop affects the spirit
Step Into a World, that's what I did
1997 I was raisin my kid
or kids, but I, had to go
Cause New York DJ's changed the flows
to clothes and hoes, but that wasn't me
I'll be damned if I dance for the MTV
So in 1998 I began to debate
Should I go now, or should I really wait
'99, I moved to L.A. you see
and took a gig with the WB
Started studyin philosophy full-time
To have a full heart, full body, full mind
But you know what the problem is or was
DJ's don't raise our kids, cuz
they so caught up in the cash and jewels
How they gonna really see a hip-hop school
How they gonna really see a hip-hop temple
They don't even wanna play my instrumentals, but
big up Dr. Dre, Snoop, Xzibit
Especially Xzibit, he was there in a minute
Mic Conception, all of them, said
Yo you need help I should call them
When I was in L.A., I held the crown
Bloods, Crips, they held me down
I could never forget Mad Lion, killer pride
with the gat in the lap in the low-ride
Oh I can't forget, Icy Ice, Lucky Lou
Julio G, that was the crew
Davey D, Ingrid, David Connor
The list goes on and on, let me tell ya
FredWreck, and my man Protest
Much respect, no less
To my spiritual and mental defenders
Big up to L.A., temple members
But in 2000, I seen how I wanted to live
I wasn't no executive
So I picked up the mic and I quit my job
Said to Simone I gotta get with God
She said, Don't worry bout these dollars and quarters.
Record companies ain't got nuttin for ya.
Damn, she took me back to Bam!
Took me back to who I am!
Brought me back to the New York land!
Now I overstand!..
{interviewer}
Now KRS-One, now you've been quoted as saying that
rap is something we do, hip-hop is something you live.
{KRS} Yes!
{interviewer}
Explain that to us please.
{KRS-One}
Well, well, today hip-hop, we are advocating that hip-hop is not,
just a music, it is an attitude, it is an awareness, it is a way
to view the world. So rap music, is something we do, but HIP-HOP,
is something we live. And we look at hip-hop, in it's 9 elements;
which is breaking, emceeing, graffiti art, deejaying, beatboxing,
street fashion, street language, street knowledge, and street
entrepenurialism - trade and business. And uhh, that's where y'know
that's the hip-hop that that that we're about. We come from the uhh
the root of, of Kool DJ Herc, who originated hip-hop in the early 70's
and then Afrika Bambaata and Zulu Nation (mmhmm)
who instigated something called The Infinity Lessons
and added conciousness to hip-hop, and then Grandmaster Flash
with the invention of the mixer, on to Run-D.M.C. and then myself.
And uhh, we created the Stop the Violence movement, you may recall
a song, Self Destruction and and and so on. All of this, goes to
uhh uhh, the idea of LIVING this culture out and taking responsibility
for how it looks and and acts in society.
Radio Speaker: (NOT on album version)

One of these days,
I'm gonna sit down
and write a long letter
To all the good friends I've known
And I'm gonna try
And thank them all
for the good times together.
Though so apart we've grown.
One of these days,
I'm gonna sit down
and write a long letter
To all the good friends I've known
One of these days,
one of these days,
one of these days,
And it won't be long, it won't be long.
And I'm gonna thank,
That old country fiddler
And all those rough boys
Who play that rock 'n' roll
I never tried to burn any bridges
Though I know I let some good things go.
One of these days,
I'm gonna sit down
and write a long letter
To all the good friends I've known
One of these days,
one of these days,
one of these days,
And it won't be long, it won't be long.
From down in L.A.
All the way to Nashville,
From New York City
To my Canadian prairie home
My friends are scattered
Like leaves from an old maple.
Some are weak, some are strong.
One of these days,
I'm gonna sit down
and write a long letter
To all the good friends I've known
One of these days,
one of these days,
one of these days,
And it won't be long, it won't be long.
One of these days,
one of these days,
one of these days,
And it won't be long, it won't be long.
Chorus:
I saw the light
I've been baptised
By the fire in your touch
And the flame in your eyes
I'm born to love again
I'm a brand new man
Well the whole town's talking
'Bout the line I'm walking
That leads right to your door
Oh how I used to roam
I was a rolling stone
I used to have a wild side
They say a country-mile-wide
I'd burn those beer joints
down
That's all changed now
You turned my life around
Repeat Chorus
I used to love 'em and leave
'em
I'd brag about my freedom
How no one could tie me
down
Then I met you
Now my heart beats true
Baby you and me together
Feels more like forever
Than anything I've ever
known
We're right on track
I ain't looking back
Repeat Chorus 3 times
I'm born to love again
I'm a brand new man
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green
Towering over your head
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes
And she's gone
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers
That grow so incredibly high
Newspaper taxis appear on the shore
Waiting to take you away
Climb in the back with you head in the clouds
And you're gone
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes
First you take my heartIn the palm of your hand
And you squeeze it tight
Then you take my mind
And play with it all night
You take my prideAnd throw it up against the wall
You take me in your arms baby
And bounce me like a rubber ballI ain't complaining
What you're doing you see'
Cos this hurting feeling is
Oh so good for me
You take my name
And you scandalise it in the street
Oh anything you wanna do
Say it's alright by me
Then you turned me around
And check my masculinity
So let me tell you
You sure look good to me'
Cos baby these things you're doingbelieve
They hurt so bad
But it's worth all the misery
Don't you know that it's hurts so good
Hurts so good
Ooh boy please don't ever
Take the heat off me'
Cos it would hurt even more
If you'd ever leave
Even though sometimes
It's hard to me to bear
I make myself hold on'
Cos it kills me I don't care'
Cos baby I don't want you to ever quit
Ooh, it ain't no good 'til it
Hurts just a little bit
Don't you know that it's hurts so good
Hurts so good
[Verse 1]
Looking in the mirror I can see myself standing in your
Arms holding me and kissing me and loving me, oooh
You just can't get enough of me now I'm on the phone telling
You I'm all alone so come on over I'm out the shower now,
about to oil down I can't wait till you get here.
[Chorus 2x]
I wanna be like those girls in the movies,
to have a man so in love it makes him drop to his
knees she's even on his mind while he's asleep at night
cause that's the feeling you've given me.
[Verse 2]
I'm almost ready to accept the truth I'm in love with you
and I wanna tell you I'm glad that
you're here, uh and now we're face to face in the candlelight,
I'm watching your eyes watching
mine layin here with you, feel so good, feel so good.
With your hand in mine we don't have to
worry about time,or what the future brings
we can just let it be the way you smile
At me I already see you don't wanna leave so we can just
Sit back, relax and let it move naturally.
[Chorus 4x]
Yeah thats the feeling Baby..Baby

All you girls are the same.

Any you just walk away.
(Bridge) What am I to do
If I can't live with or without you?
I'm all alone, confused
(Chorus) What am I to do
Without your love
What am I to say
Without your love
The things we used to do
I can't get over you
Without Your love.
(Verse) I guess I'll play the fool
I always play the fool
Sad but true
I gotta learn to play the game
I've lost
All my pride and shame.
(Bridge)

(Guitar Solo)
(Bridge)
(Chorus)...out
Tennessee, oh, Tennessee
Lord, there's nothing like a fall in Tennessee
It was a Smokey Mountain morning, October 25
You know she left here without warning
So I took a long, long drive
Tried to change the state my heart was in
Out of all the places I have been
Tennessee, Tennessee
There's nothing like a fall in Tennessee
For a gold old fashioned heartbreak
There's no place I'd rather be
'Cause there's nothing like a fall in Tennessee
She must of had her reasons
Was it the chill in the air?
I guess lovers have their seasons
Where their souls are laying bare
It's better now her true colors show
This time of year there's only one place to go
Tennessee, Tennessee
There's nothing like a fall in Tennessee
For a gold old fashioned heartbreak
There's no place I'd rather be
'Cause there's nothing like a fall in Tennessee
For a good old fashioned heartbreak
Theres no place I'd rather be
The movers came today to take out things away
Memories that we held so dear
One by one they're out of here, I hung the 'For Sale' sign
On what was yours and once was mine
One last look around to find
Any home we might have left behind
But the emptiness rings true
There's really nothing left to do
'Cause I'm not needed here now
You made it clear to me somehow
If it's not built on love, a home is just a house
So I'll close and clock this door
Not coming back here anymore
It's time to face the fear, I'm not needed here now
That's where he said his prayers
And learned to climb the stairs
Every room has history that holds a part of you and me
In my heart it's getting through
It's telling me that without you
'Cause I'm not needed here now
You made it clear to me somehow
If it's not built on love, a home is just a house
So I'll close and clock this door
Not coming back here anymore
It's time to face the fear, I'm not needed here now
Tomorrow morning if you wake up
And the sun does not appear
I will be here, here
If in the dark we lose sight of love
Hold my hand and have no fear
'Cause I will be here
I will be here when you feel like being quiet
When you need to speak your mind, I will listen
And I will be here
When the laughter turns to crying
Through the winning, losing and trying
We'll be together
'Cause I will be here
Tomorrow morning if you wake
And the future is unclear
I will be here
As sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetimes are made for years
So, I will be here
I will be here and you can cry on my shoulder
When the mirror tells us we're older
I will hold you
And I will be here to watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here
I will be true to the promise I have made
Can't say I don't love her
Still I can't pretend
That my heart is torn just knowing that
I'm losing my best friend
If it's easier said than done
Then someone tell me why
Though I tried
I can't find the words to say goodbye
I could tell her that I'm sorry
And hope she'll understand
She will have to do with someone else
All that we had planned
I'd rather her, hear the truth
Than hurt her with a lie
So I tried
But I can't find the words to say goodbye
Now I know, I have to go
There's no other way
But goodbye is not what I
Can't bring myself to say
If I told her, see you later
Then I might be wrong
'Cause this voice inside is driving me
To find where I belong
And I know I must leave her now
But every time I try
Don't know why
But I can't find the words to say goodbye
Don't know why
There's a slow moon rising
It's shining on your skin
And the way your body moves me
I know there's no holding back, no holding back
I wouldn't be a man if I didn't feel like this
I wouldn't be a man if a woman like you was anything I could resist
I'd have to be from another planet where love doesn't exist
I wouldn't be a man if I didn't feel like this
I can feel passion flowing
As you fall into my arms
And the secret way you touch me
I know there's no holding back, no holding back
I wouldn't be a man if I didn't feel like this
I wouldn't be a man if a woman like you was anything I could resist
I'd have to be from another planet where love doesn't exist
Oh, I wouldn't be a man if I didn't feel like this
Roll with me baby all night long
Soul to soul with me baby all night long
Woah, I'd have to be from another planet where her love doesn't exist
Oh, I wouldn't be a man if I didn't feel like this
Baby, baby, baby, please go easy on me
There's always one more day
Always one more call
Always one more try
To explain it all
If that's what you think
You'd better be keeping score
'Cause sooner or later
You'll be down to your last one more
There's always one more promise
Always one more word
Always one more excuse
She hasn't heard
So there's really no danger
You've broken her heart before
Well, sooner or later
You'll be down to your last one more
You think your supply
Of second chances
Will never run dry, will never run out
You think there'll be time
To men you fences
Isn't that what forgiveness is all about
There's always one more letter
Always one more kiss
Well brother, you better conscious of this
Nothing lasts forever that what a zero's for
And sooner or later you'll be
You're so good lookin' it ought to be against the law
You got that look in your eyes could make a man stumble and fall
You got my attention 'cause honey you got it all
And if you wanna do something about it just lead me on
Don't threaten me with a good time
I'm feelin' good and you're lookin' so fine
I'll take a chance, honey, I don't mind
Don't threaten me with a good time
Come on baby, go ahead and break my heart
I got a little piece left, so go ahead and take your best shot
Let's get started lay it all on the line
And before the night is over girl, you are goin' to be mine
Don't threaten me with a good time
I'm feelin' good and you're lookin' so fine
I'll take a chance, honey, I don't mind
Don't threaten me with a good time
Your locomotion could stop a train
The way you move could drive a man insane
I knew a man, he was a real go getter
What he did best, was climb the ladder of success
And how far he went was how he measured
The worth of his life and who he was
But that's all behind me now because
Loving you, it's what I do
It's the one thing I've found, I can put my heart into
It's who I am, I'm a lucky man
Living the life I choose
Loving you, it's what I do
I do what I can to make an honest living
But it's just a job it's not what I am living for
I want to earn the love you're giving
That's all that matters now to me
No matter what I'll always be
Loving you, it's what I do
It's the one thing I've found, I can put my heart into
It's who I am, I'm a lucky man
Living the life I choose
Loving you, it's what I do
I am not a devil, I am not a saint
Can't tell if the wood is good by looking at the paint
It's not that I don't love you
Some words are just hard for me to say
I wish I was a poet
Honey, I'm not built that way
I know someone hurt you that's all in the past
He was one to hit and run but I don't work like that
Gonna take forever
To finish what we started here today
I just can't lie about it
Honey, I'm not built that way
I'm built to go the distance, solid as a rock
I climb all my mountains to the top
And I won't run for cover
Even when our sunny skies turn gray
Honey, I'm not built that way
Saying it is one thing
Proving it takes time
But the thought that I don't love you
Should never cross your mind
I'm built to go the distance, solid as a rock
I climb all my mountains to the top
And I won't run for cover
Even when our sunny skies turn gray
Honey, I'm not built that way
No, no, no
Not built that way
I know you can make it in this world on your own
But I wanna take care of you
Woman within may think that it's wrong
But I wanna take care of you
I'll show you the love of a man that knows how
To hold you without holding you down
It's not a sign of weakness to let me be strong
I wanna take care of you
I'll carry the weight of your world on my shoulder
I wanna take care of you
In the prime of our years and till the time ticks us older
I wanna take care of you
I'll be your rope when that mountain's too steep
Be your hope when the water's too deep
I'll share my blanket when trouble winds turn colder
I wanna take care of you
I've got nothin' to prove but the way that I feel
It's love but it's so much more
For once in my life I know what I am living for
When the good Lord takes you, better take me too
So I can take care of you
When the good Lord takes you, He better take me too
So I can take care of you
Love left you nothing but lonely
Heartache is all you've had
This time around when it lets you down
You never had it so bad
I know it's hard to keep going
When everything keeps going wrong
But don't you give up on fallin' in love
Not while I'm here to lean on
Give me all of the pieces of your broken heart
And I'll put if back together again
No matter how your world is torn apart
Love can make the heartache end
Tonight, it'll be all right, just lie here in my arms
And give me all the pieces of your broken heart
I know the hurt you've been feeling
I've had some dreams hit the ground
All that you need is someone like me
Who knows where your dreams can be found
Give me all of the pieces of your broken heart
And I'll put if back together again
No matter how your world is torn apart
Love can make the heartache end
Tonight, it'll be all right, just lie here in my arms
When a woman cries
When a woman cries
She can wash your world away
When storms fill her eyes
When storms fill her eyes
You never know what to say
Don't say a word
Don't say anything
She don't need your truth or lies
Just hold her close and love her
When a woman cries
When a woman cries
When a woman cries
There ain't no sadder song
So you apologize
You apologize
No matter who is right or wrong
But if you want to make her happy
And dry those tears from her eyes
Just hold her close and love her
When a woman cries
Now don't you waste your time thinking
About the right things to say
Just put your arms around her
Until the clouds roll away
And if you find that you're crying too
Don't let it come as no surprise
Just hold her close and love her
Remember Ricky told Diane when he slipped
That gold ring on her hand it was there to stay
Now the attorneys are on the phone
Dividing up everything they own they're going separate ways
So many hearts get wasted
In those Ricky and Diane cases
And I hate to see good love die young
Oh, we're two of the lucky ones
Love will save a few then bury some
The heart grows fond or the heart goes numb
I knew from the first star we wished upon
We're two of the lucky ones
Now just like Ricky and Diane
Love could have slipped right through our hands
But we kept holding on, call it good fortune or you call it fate
But the luck we've had we've had to make by working hard at home
So many hearts get wasted
When they stop bending they start breaking
The longer we love the more we learn
Oh, we're two of the lucky ones
Love will save a few then bury some
The heart grows fond or the heart goes numb
I knew from the first star we wished upon
We're two of the lucky ones
(Billy Henderson/Steve Jones)
A lover's first touch and dreams of that night
She'll keep in her heart for the rest of her life
Men tend to forget those little things
We're not as sentimental as we ought to be
There's so much that we don't see
Only a woman understands
The shine in the diamond on her hand
And it's a mystery to every man
How easy tears can flow
And what's so special about a rose
Only a woman knows
Those three little words men find hard to say
Mean so much to her, have you told her today
Love's not a game, but there is a rule
Nothing's for granted and nothin's assumed
But most men don't have a clue
Only a woman understands
The shine in the diamond on her hand
And it's a mystery to every man
How easy tears can flow
And what's so special about a rose
Only a woman knows
What's so special about a rose
We started out in a double wide
Had to hang out clothes out on the line
We even had your mom and dad co-sign
We used to ride around downtown singing
Money can't buy you love when times are rough
We just kept goin', when the goin' got tough
Can't shake us can't break us separate us
'Cause we've been through it all
We're at our best, when our backs against the wall
It ain't always been a honeymoon
Sometimes it feels like we're dancin' to a different tune
That's when you and me need a little breathin' room
But when we're rockin' don't come knockin'
We want to be left alone all night long
Makin' up till it feels home sweet home
Can't shake us cant break us separate us
'Cause we've been through it all
We're at our best when our backs against the wall
We start out with a kiss in the hall
And end up holdin' each other tight
Been away, haven't seen you in a while
How've you been? Have you changed your style?
And do you think that we've grown up differently?
Don't seem the same, seems you've lost your feel for me
So let's leave it alone 'cause we can't see eye to eye
There ain't no good guys, there ain't no bad guys
There's only you and me and we just disagree
Ooh ooh ooh ooh oh whoa
I'm going back to a place that's far away
How 'bout you? Have you got a place to stay?
Why should I care? When I'm just trying to get along
We were friends but now it's the end of our love song
So let's leave it alone 'cause we can't see eye to eye
There ain't no good guys, there ain't no bad guys
There's only you and me and we just disagree
Ooh ooh ooh ooh oh whoa
So let's leave it alone 'cause we can't see eye to eye
There ain't no good guys, there ain't no bad guys
There's only you and me and we just disagree
I found some shade beneath the willow tree
I fell asleep and started dreaming
That everything created here on Earth
All had voices singing
Every rock and every blade of grass
Even the ivy that was clinging
Every leap and every drop of rain
All had voices singing
It brought the angels down
In my dream so clear
And the Lord sat down
So that He could hear
The sea and waves were rushing to the shore
With the joy that they were bringing
A sound so perfect that it made Him cry
To hear their voices singing
I could not help but want to add my own
To all the praises that were ringing
And over all the world there fell a hust
To hear my one voice singing
And as the Lord sat down
The angels hovered near
But they made no sound
So that He could hear
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
I heard voices singing
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
It's the little things that mean the most to me
Like wakin' up with you this close to me
Watch the sunrise, there in your eyes
Sleepy smile, tangled hair
Mornin' love, girl I swear
This is the life the one we're livin'
These are the days, we've been given
This is the love, now and forever
And we only get one chance to live it right
This is the life
Life is funny let's just laugh at it
Who knows what's comin' after it
Our days are numbered, filled with wonder
Let's raise our glass, to the years
Make love last while we're here
Oh, this is the life the one we're livin'
These are the days, we've been given
This is the love, now and forever
And we only get one chance to live it right
Oh, this is the life, this is the life
This is the life the one we're livin'
These are the days, we've been given
This is the love, now and forever
And we only get one chance to live it right
Yeah, we only get one chance but that's all right
Well, it seems like it eats up most of my time
It does the same for most mankind
But you meet some nice folk standin' in line
And that's what I like about love
It's a good intention or a bad excuse
A tire swing or a hangin' noose
It'll tie you down or it'll cut you loose
And that's what I like about love
That's what I like about it
There ain't no room for those who doubt it
You're damned if you
And you're damned if you do without it
But that's what I like about love
It's Barbie dolls and baseball bats
Hot dogs on the grill out back
And seven shoes on a welcome mat
That's what I like about love
That's what I like about it
There ain't no room for those who doubt it
You're damned if you
And you're damned if you do without it
But that's what I like about love
Well, it's a blanket when the wind gets cold
And it's a walking cane when you're growing old
And it's the best part of every story told
And that's what I like about love
That's what I like about it
There ain't no room for those who doubt it
You're damned if you
And you're damned if you do without it
But that's what I like about love
Well, life on the farm is kinda laid back
Ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack
Early to rise and early in the sack
Thank God I'm a country boy
A simple kinda life never did me no harm
Raisin' me a family and workin' on a farm
Days are all filled with an easy country charm
Thank God I'm a country boy
Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me a fiddle
When the sun's comin' up, I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothin' but a funny funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy
When the work's all done and the sun's settlin' low
I pull out my fiddle and I rosin up my bow
Well, the kids are asleep so I keep it kinda low
Thank God I'm a country boy
And I'd play Sally Goodin all day if I could
But the Lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good
So I fiddle when I can, work when I should
Thank God I'm a country boy
Yeah, I got me a fine wife, I got me a fiddle
The sun's comin' up, I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothin' but a funny funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy
Well, I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds and jewels
I never was one of them money hungry fools
I'd rather have my farm, my fiddle and tools
I thank God I'm a country boy
Yeah, the city folk drivin' in a black limousine
A lotta sad people thinkin' that's a mighty keen
People, let me tell ya now exactly what I mean
Thank God I'm a country boy
Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me a fiddle
When the sun's comin' up, I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothin' but a funny funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy
See, my fiddle was my daddy's till the day he died
He took me by the hand, held me close to his side
He said, "Live a good life, play my fiddle with pride
And thank God you're a country boy"
Yeah, my daddy taught me young how to hunt and how to whittle
Taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
Taught me how to love, how to give just a little
Thank God I'm a country boy
Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me a fiddle
The sun's comin' up, I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothin' but a funny funny riddle
You made up your mind
It was time it was over
After we had come so far
And I think there's enough
Pieces of forgiveness
Somewhere in my broken heart
I would not have chosen
The road you have taken
It has left us miles apart
But I think I can
Still find the will to keep goin'
Somewhere in my broken heart
So fly, go ahead and fly
Until you find out who you are
And I, I will keep my love unspoken
Somewhere in my broken heart
I hope that in time
You will find what you long for
Love that's written in the stars
And when you finally do
I think you will see it's
Somewhere in my broken heart
Girl I, I will keep my love unspoken
Somewhere in my broken heart
I hope that in time
You will find what you long for
Love that's written in the stars
And when you finally do
I think you will see it's
Somewhere in my broken
Somewhere in my broken
