Longneck Bottle

Chorus: Longneck bottle Let go of my hand Hey jukebox don't start playin' that song again 'Cause there's a girl at home who loves me You know she won't understand Longneck bottle Let go of my hand Hey barroom mirror on the wall Go stare at someone else Don't show the world the fool I am Just keep it to yourself Chorus Dance floor seems you're underneath my feet Everywherre I turn I oughta waltx right out of them swingin' doors But that's a step I just can't learn Chorus Back to the top

She's Gonna Make It

He followed her to work this morning He'd never seen that dress before She seemed to sail right through Those dark clouds forming That he knows he's headed for After seven years of marriage He wanted out Now after seven months of freedom It's clear that there's no doubt Chorus: She's gonna make it And he never will He's at the foot of the mountain And she's over that hill He's sinkin' at sea And her sails are filled She's gonna make it And he never will And you know it's not like she's forgot about him She's just dealing with the pain And the fact that she's survived so well without him You know it's driving him insane And the crazy thing about it Is she'd take him back But the fool in him that walked out Is the fool who just won't ask Chorus Back to the top

Two Pina Coladas

I was feelin' the blues I was watching the news When this fella came on the TV He said I'm tellin' you That science has proven That heartaches are healed by the sea That got me goin' Without even knowin' I packed right up and drove down Now I'm on a roll And I swear to my soul Tonight I'm gonna paint this town Chorus: So bring me two pina coladas One for each hand Let's set sail with Captin Morgan And never leave dry land Troubles I forgot 'em I buried 'em in the sand So bring me two pina coladas She said good-bye to her good timin' man Oh now I've gotta say That the wind and the waves And the moon winkin' down at me Eases my mind By leavin' behind The heartaches that love often brings Now I've got a smile That goes on for miles With no inclination to roam I've gotta say That I think I've gotta stay 'Cause this is feelin' more and more like home Chorus Back to the top

In Another's Eyes

In another's eyes I'm someone who Loves her enough To walk away from you I'd never cheat And I would never lie In another's eyes In another's eyes I can do no wrong And he believes in me And his faith is strong I'd never fall Or even compromise In another's eyes In another's eyes I'm afraid that I can't see This picture perfect portrait That they paint of me They don't realize And I pray they never do 'Cause every time I look I'm seein' you In another's eyes In another's eyes Starin' back at me I see a sinkin' soul Tryin' desperately To turn the tide Before it dies In another's eyes And what they don't see Is killing me It's blessing and a curse That love is blind 'Cause in another's eyes I'm afraid that I can't see This picture perfect portrait That they paint of me And they don't realize And I pray to God they never do 'Cause every time I look I'm seein' you In another's eyes Back to the top.

Somewhere Other Than The Night

He could see the storm clouds rollin' across the hill He barely beat the rain in from the field And between the back door slammin' she heard him say "Damn this rain and damn this wasted day" But she'd been waitin' for this day for oh so long She was standin' in the kitchen with nothin' but her apron on And in disbelief he stood and he stared awhile When their eyes met, they both began to smile Chorus Somewhere other than the night She needs to hear I love you Somewhere other than the night She needs to know you care She wants to know she's needed She needs to be held tight Somewhere other than the night They spent the day wrapped up in a blanket On the front porch swing He'd come to realize he'd neglected certain things And there are times she feels alone even by his side It was the first time she ever saw him cry Repeat Chorus To know she's needed She needs to be held tight Somewhere other than the night Back to the top

We Shall Be Free

This ain't comin' from no prophet Just an ordinary man When I close my eyes I see The way this world shall be When we all walk hand in hand When the last child cries for a crust of bread When the last man dies for just words that he said When there's shelter over the poorest head We shall be free When the last thing we notice is the color of skin And the first thing we look for is the beauty within When the skies and the oceans are clean again We shall be free We shall be free We shall be free Stand straight, walk proud 'Cause we shall be free When we're free to love anyone we choose When this world's big enough for all diffrent views When we all can worship from our own kind of pew Then we shall be free We shall be free We shall be free Have a little faith Hold out 'Cause we shall be free And when money talks for the very last time And nobody walks a step behind When there's only one race and that's mankind Then we shall be free We shall be free We shall be free Stand straihgt, walk proud, have a little faith, hold out We shall be free We shall be free We shall be free Stand straight, have a little faith We shall be free We shall be free (Repeat 2 times) Back to the top

Cowboys And Angels

On the eighth day God noticed a problem For there below Him stood a cowboy alone Stubborn and proud, reckless and loud God knew he'd never make it on his own So God looked out all over creation And listened as that cowboy prayed God took passion and thunder Patience and wonder then He sent down The best thing that God ever made Center: Cowboys and angels leather and lace Salt of the earth meets heavenly grace Cowboys and angels tested and tried I'ts a long way to heaven And one hell of a ride Nothin's changed since the dawn of creation For you will find them together today And only heaven above them knows why she loves him But he must be the reason she don't fly away Chorus It's a long way to heaven And one hell of a ride. Back to the top.

That Summer

I went to work for her that summer A teenage kid so far from home She was a lonely widow woman Hell-bent to make it on her own We were a thousand miles from nowhere Wheat fields as far as I could see Both needing something from each other Not knowing yet what that might be 'Til she came to me one evening Hot cup of coffee and a smile In a dress that I was certain She hadn't worn in quite a while There was a difference in her laughter There was a softness in her eyes And on the air there was a hunger Even a boy could recognize Chorus 1: She had a need to feel the thunder To chase the lightning from the sky To watch a storm with all its wonder Raging in her lover's eyes She had to ride the heat of passion Like a comet burning bright Rushing headlong in the wind Out where only dreams have been Burning both ends of the night That summer wind was all around me Nothing between us but the night When I told her that I'd never She softly whispered "That's alright" And then I watched her hands of leather Turn to velvet in a touch There's never been a summer When I have ever learned so much Chorus 2: We had a need to feel the thunder To chase the lightning from the sky To watch a storm with all its wonder Raging in each other's eyes We had to ride the heat of passion Like a comet burning bright Rushing headlong in the wind Out where only dreams have been Burning both ends of the night I often think about that summer The sweat, the moonlight and the lace And I have rarely held another When I haven't seen her face And every time I pass a wheat field And watch it dancing with the wind Although I know it isn't real I just can't help but feel her hungry arms again Chorus 1 Rushing headlong in the wind Out where only dreams have been Burnin' both ends of the night Back to the top.

Learning To Live Again

I burned my hand, I cut my face Heaven knows how long it's been Since I've felt so out of place I'm wonderin' if I'll fit in Debbie and Charley said they'd be here by nine And Deb said she might bring a friend Just my luck, they're right on time So here I go again I'm gonna smile my best smile And I'm gonna laugh like it's going out of style Look into her eyes and pray that she don't see That learning to live again is killing me Little cafe, table for four But there's just conversation for three I like the way she let me get the door I wonder what she thinks of me Debbie just whispered, "You're doin' fine" And I wish that I felt the same She's asked me to dance, now her hand's in mine Oh, my god, I've forgotten her name But I'm gonna smile my best smile And I'm gonna laugh like it's going out of style Look into her eyes and pray that she don't see That learning to live again is killing me Now here we are beneath her porch light And I say what a great time it's been A kiss on the cheek, a whisper goodnight And I say, "Can I see you again" And she just smiles her best smile And she laughs like it's going out of style Looks into my eyes and says, "We'll see" Oh this learning to live again is killing me God this learning to live again is killing me Back to the top.

Standing Outside the Fire

We call them cool Those hearts that have no scars to show The ones that never do let go And risk the tables being turned We call them fools Who have to dance within the flame Who chance the sorrow and the shame That always comes with getting burned But you've got to be tough when consumed by desire 'Cause it's not enough just to stand outside the fire We call them strong Those who can face this world alone Who seem to get by on their own Those who will never take the fall We call them weak Who are unable to resist The slightest chance love might exist And for that forsake it all They're so hell-bent on living, walking a wire Convinced it's not living if you stand outside the fire Standing outside the fire Standing outside the fire Life is not tried, it is merely survived If you're standing outside the fire There's this love that is burning Deep in my soul Constantly yearning to get out of control Wanting to fly higher and higher I can't abide Standing outside the fire Standing outside the fire Standing outside the fire Life is not tried, it is merely survived If you're standing outside the fire Standing outside the fire Standing outside the fire Life is not tried, it is merely survived If you're standing outside the fire Back to the top.

The River

You know a dream is like a river Ever changing as it flows And a dreamer's just a vessel That must follow where it goes Trying to learn from what's behind you And never knowing what's in store Makes each day a constant battle Just to stay between the shores...and Chorus: I will sail my vessel 'Til the river runs dry Like a bird upon the wind These waters are my sky I'll never reach my destination If I never try So I will sail my vessel 'Til the river runs dry Too many times we stand aside And let the waters slip away 'Til what we put off 'til tommorow Has now become today So don't you sit upon the shoreline And say your satisfied Choose to chance the rapids And dare to dance the tide...yes Chorus And there's bound to be rough waters And I know I'll take some falls But with the Good Lord as my Captain I can make it through them all..yes Chorus Yes, I will sail my vessel 'Til the river runs dry Back to the top.
