In the corner of my mind stands a jukebox
It's playin' all my favorite mem-o-ries One by one, they take me back To the days when you were mine And I can't stop this jukebox in my mind. I don't need no quarters, don't need any dime You filled it up forever When you said good-bye Heaven knows I love old melodies They were meant to ease the pain But the kind that's playin' on my mind Are drivin' me insane. In the corner of my mind stands a jukebox It's playin' all my favorite mem-o-ries One by one, they take me back To the days when you were mine And I can't stop this jukebox in my mind. Song by song, those melodies Were meant to ease the pain But the kind that's playin' on my mind Are drivin' me insane; In the corner of my mind stands a jukebox It's playin' all my favorite mem-o-ries One by one, they take me back To the days when you were mine And I can't stop this jukebox in my mind. |

Let's Roll the windows down turn the radio up
Let the wind blow through our hair Love is reckless, lets get reckless tonight There ain't nothing out here but a big, tall Texas sky There's a red sun painted across the pond tonight Well your daddy's got plans for you And mine thinks I'm at school They say it's reckless to chase a dream But this town's got nothing for you and me Let's roll the windows down turn the radio up Let the wind blow through our hair There's a moon tonight and a road outside Baby we're gettin' out of here I could care less where it leads us Love is reckless, let's get reckless tonight Let's take my Thunderbird and leave tonight I'll keep the pedal to the floor until we see morning light They can't live our lives for us If we let 'em we'll lose our love And love dies hard in this Texas sun I'd rather be reckless and on the run Let's roll the windows down turn the radio up Let the wind blow through our hair There's a moon tonight and a road outside Baby we're gettin' out of here I could care less where it leads us Love is reckless, let's get reckless tonight When you're crazy in love you gotta take a chance Burn the bridge and don't look back Turn the radio up roll the windows down Let the wind blow through our hair There's a moon tonight and a road outside Baby we're gettin' out of here Roll the windows down, turn the radio up Love is reckless, let's get reckless Let's get reckless... |

I once though of love as a prison
A place I didn't want to be. So long ago, I made a decision To be footloose and fancy-free. But you came and I was so tempted To gamble on love just one time. I never thought that I would get caught. It seemed like a perfect crime. Baby, you left me defenseless, But I've only got one plea. Lock me away inside of your love, And throw away the key. I'm guilty, of love in the first degree. I thought it would be so simple, Like a thousand times before. I'd take what I wanted and just walk away. But I never made it to the door. Now, babe I'm not begging for mercy. Go ahead and throw the book at me. If lovin' you's a crime, I know that I'm as guilty as a man can be. Baby, you left me defenseless. But I've only got one plea. Lock me away inside of your love, And throw away the key. I'm guilty, of love in the first degree. Love in the first degree. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Baby, you left me defenseless. But I've only got one plea. Lock me away inside of your love, And throw away the key. I'm guilty, of love in the first degree. Love in the first degree. Oh yeah. Love in the first degree. Love in the first degree. Oh yeah. Love in the first degree. Love in the first degree. Love in the first degree. Love in the first degree... |

(Words and Music by Randy Owen)
Spoken: "You see that mountain over there? Yeah? Well, one of these days I'm gonna climb that mountain". Chorus: Oh, play me some mountain music, Like grandma and grandpa used to play. Then I'll float on down the river To a Cajun hideaway. Drift away like Tom Sawyer, ride a raft with ol' Huck Finn. Take a nap like Rip Van Winkle, daze dreamin' again. Chorus Oh, play me some mountain music, Like grandma and grandpa used to play. Then I'll float on down the river To a Cajun hideaway. Swim across the river, just to prove that I'm a man. Spend the day bein' lazy, just bein' nature's friend. Climb a long tall hick'ry. Bend it over, skinnin' cats. Playin' baseball with chert rocks, usin' sawmill slabs for bats. Bridge: Play some back-home, come-on music That comes from the heart. Play something with lots of feelin', 'Cause that's where music has to start. Oh, play me some mountain music, Like grandma and grandpa used to play. Then I'll float on down the river To a Cajun hideaway, hey hey. Oh play me mountain music. Oh play me mountain music. Oh play me mountain music. Oh play me mountain music. |

It's her first night on the town since she was just eighteen
A lady down on love and out of hope and dreams The ties that once bound her now are broke away And she's like a baby, just learning how to play. She never thought that love could ever end so soon Her mind drifts back in time to a mid-summer moon When he asked her to marry and she gladly said okay And a woman came to be from the girl of yesterday. Now, she's a lady down on love She needs somebody to gently pick her up She's got her freedom, but she'd rather be bound To a man who would love her and never let her down. Well, I know a lady that's down on her love 'Cause I used to hold her and have that special touch But work took me a way from home late at nights And I wasn't there when she turned out the lights Then both of us got lonely and I gave into lust And she just couldn't live with a man she couldn't trust. Now, she's a lady down on love She needs somebody to gently pick her up She's got her freedom, but she'd rather be bound To a man who would love her and never let her down Now she's a lady down on love... |

She and I live in our own little world
Don't worry about the world outside She and I agree She and I lead a perfectly normal life Ah but just because we aren't often seen socially People think we've got something to hide. But all our friends know we're just a little old fashioned She and I Oh ain't that great Ain't it fine To have a love someone that others can't find Ain't it wonderful to know all we ever need is just the two of us She and I So wonderful She and I She and I share with every body else The same wants, needs and desires She and I save She and I pay on everything we acquire Ah but just because we aren't often seen separately People think we live one life. Its hard for them to see how anyone could be as close as She and I |

Just off of the beaten path
A little dot on the state road map That's where I was born and where I'll die Things move at a slower pace Nobody's in a rat race And these days that's a special way of life (CHORUS) Down Home Where they know you by name and treat you like family Down Home A mans good word and a hand shake are all you need Folks know If they're fallin' on hard times they can fall back home Those of us raised up down home In the corner of the hardware store Gathered round on a checkered board Old men telling lies and crownin' kings Kids drivin' round the old town square Cops roll down int he cool night air Go and see what's shakin' at the Dairy Queen (CHORUS) Down Home Where they know you by name and treat you like family Down Home A mans good word and a hand shake are all you need Folks know If they're fallin' on hard times they can fall back home Those of us raised up down home When I was a boy I couldn't wait to leave this place But now I wanna see my children raised Down Home Down Home Folks know If there fallin' on hard times they can fall back home Those of us raised up Down Home Where they know you by name and treat you like family Down Home A mans good word and a handshake are all you need Folks know If they're fallin' on hard times they can fall back home Those of us raised up Down Home Down Home Way down home Down home Down Home Way down home |

Chorus:
I'm in a hurry to get things done Oh I rush and rush until life's no fun All I really got to do is live and die But I'm in a hurry and don't know why Don't know why I have to drive so fast My car has nothing to prove It's not new, but it'll do 0 to 60 in 5.2 chorus Can't be late That leaves me plenty of time Shakin' hands with the clock I can't stop, I'm on a roll and ready to rock chorus I hear a voice It says I'm runnin' behind I better pick up my pace It's a race and there ain't no room For someone in second place break chorus |

Lyin' beside you watching you sleepin'
After you've loved me so tenderly I'm searchin' for some way to tell you How good it felt when I held you There's so many ways you get to me. 'Cause you've got the touch It turns me on and on You light the fire in me That keeps burning strong The longer I'm with you The deeper and deeper in love I fall You've got the moves You move me so much You've got the touch. As you wake up you pull me closer And whisper good morning warm in my ear Nobody could do that like you do You make it so easy to love you And I know I will for a million years. 'Cause you've got the touch You turns me on and on You light the fire in me That keeps growing strong The longer I'm with you The deeper and deeper in love I fall You've got the moves That move me so much You've got the touch. Nobody can touch me like you do You make it so ease to love you And I know I will a million years. 'Cause you've got the touch You turns me on and on You light the fire in me That keeps growing strong... The longer I'm with you The deeper and deeper in love I fall You've got the moves That move me so much You've got the touch You've got the moves That move so much You've got the touch |

As I lay by your side and hold you tonight
I want you to understand, This love that I feel is so right and so real, I realize how lucky I am. And should you ever wonder if my love is true, There's something that I want to make clear to you. There's no way I can make it without you, There's no way that I'd even try. If I had to survive without you in my life, I know I wouldn't last a day. Oh babe, there's no way. It means so much to me whenever I see That 'wanting me look' in your eyes. I don't know how I could do without Holding you close every night. I've waited so long just to have you to hold. Now that I've got you, I'll never let go. There's no way I can make it without you. There's no way that I'd even try. If I had to survive without you in my life, I know I wouldn't last a day. Oh babe, there's no way. I never knew until you What I was missing. Now you say "Forever." I find my heart, it's listening, Yes, I'm listening. There's no way I can make it without you. There's no way that I'd even try. If I had to survive without you in my life, I know I wouldn't last a day. Oh babe, there's no way. Baby, there's just no way. |

There are people in this country who work hard every day.
Not for fame or fortune do they strive. But the fruits of their labor are worth more than their pay. And it's time a few of them were recognized. Hello Detroit auto workers, let me thank you for your time. You work a forty hour week for a livin', just to send it on down the line. Hello Pittsburgh steel mill workers, let me thank you for your time. You work a forty hour week for a livin', just to send it on down the line. This is for the one who swings the hammer, driving home the nail. Or the one behind the counter, ringing up the sale. Or the one who fights the fires, the one who brings the mail. For everyone who works behind the scenes. You can see them every morning in the factories and the fields. In the city streets and the quiet country towns. Working together like spokes inside a wheel. They keep this country turning around. Hello Kansas wheat field farmer, let me thank you for your time. You work a forty hour week for a livin', just to send it on down the line. Hello West Virginia coal miner, let me thank you for your time. You work a forty hour week for a livin', just to send it on down the line. This one is for the one who drives the big rig, up and down the road. Or the one out in the warehouse, bringing in the load. Or the waitress, the mechanic, the policeman on patrol. For everyone who works behind the scenes. With a spirit you can't replace with no machine. Hello America - let me thank you for your time! |

Oh, southern star, how I wish you would shine
And show me the way to get home Well I'm blue-collar branded, and stuck in a mill Hard work is a way of life for me Well I'm too young to live like I'm over the hills And too old to be wild and free. My heart is onward bound. I'm rolling with the feeling and I can't slow down I need a guiding light. Shining down to lead me through the night Oh, southern star, how I wish you would shine And show me the way to get home. Oh, hey my D.J. friend, would you play me one more song And let my mind just go and drift away Now we all have a dream....and a place where we belong Somewhere we can go and escape. My heart is onward bound. I'm rolling with the feeling and I can't slow down ....I need a guiding light. Shining down to lead me throught the night Oh, southern star, how I wish you would shine And show me the way to get home. Oh, southern star, how I wish you would shine And show me the way to get home... |
