I lost her trail on a Friday night
She was gone before I got home She'd been getting restless In that big house all alone I've been up and down these city streets For three nights in a row And lord it's hard to find that girl When she gets the urge to go [Chorus] It's kinda like a lost and found In a border town You're askin' 'bout a diamond ring They just look at you Like you've lost your mind Say they haven't seen a thing But I know she's been here lately I can still smell her perfume And she gets crazy on a full moon And I know she'll be coming back Her car is waiting right outside But, I don't want to think about Who's taking her for a ride And her unpredictability Is what I love about her best But I've got to find her quick Before she does something I regret [Chorus] She's out there somewhere Burnin' up the night Somehow I've got to run her down I'm running out of time [Chorus: x2] |

I'm a hard workin' man
I wear a steel hard hat I can ride, rope, hammer and paint Do things with my hands that most men can't I can't get ahead no matter how hard I try I'm gettin' really good at barely gettin' by Got everything I own By the sweat of my brow From my four-wheel drive to my cowboy boots I owe it all to my blue collar roots I feel like I'm workin' overtime on a runaway train I've got to bust loose from this ball and chain I'm a hard, hard workin man I got it all on the line For a peace of the promised land I'm burnin' my candle at both ends 'Bout the only way to keep the fire goin' Is to outrun the wind Come Friday night I like to party hard I carry on with the Cadillac cuties Spend my whole week's pay on some weekend beauty Come Monday mornin' I'm the first to arrive I ain't nothin' but business from nine till five I'm a hard, hard workin man I got it all on the line For a peace of the promised land I'm burnin' my candle at both ends 'Bout the only way to keep the fire goin' Is to outrun the wind I can't wait to get up in the mornin' And do it all over again Well I'm a hard livin', hard workin' man |

Lipstick letters across the mirror this morning
Said, "goodbye, baby." You left with no warning Like a thief in the night, you ran away with my heart I can't believe my eyes, must be a bad dream You always said we had a good thing You never once let on we were falling apart [Chorus] That ain't no way to go, girl, it just ain't right Don't you think that I deserve to hear you say goodbye That ain't no way to go, was it all a lie? After all this time, that ain't no way to go Getting nowhere, I'm tired of thinking Guess I'll do a little wishful drinking And make a whiskey wish upon a star Train whistle blowing down the tracks Lonesome sound says she ain't coming back It's such a cold blow from out of the dark [Chorus] |

I'm still hurtin' from the last time
You walked on this heart of mine I can't find much to believe in You let me down so many times Heaven knows how I love you But I'm tired of holding on [Chorus] You better kiss me 'Cause your gonna miss me when I'm gone Not much chance we're gonna make it If I'm the only one who's trying You know I'm running out of reasons And we're running out of time Someday, girl, you're gonna wake up And wonder what went wrong [Chorus] You're good at going through the motions All I hear are alibis Not I get this empty feeling When I look into your eyes I don't see a love light shining I don't know what's going on [Chorus: x2] Oh, you gonna miss me when I'm gone You better kiss me 'Cause you gonna miss me, you gonna miss me, when I'm gone [Chorus] Oh, you gonna miss me when I'm gone. |

I been longin' to see her When she's around she takes my blues away Sweet maria the sunlight surely hurts my eyes I'm a lonely dreamer on a highway in the skies Maria, maria i love you My maria there were some blue and sorrow times Just my thoughts about you bring back my piece of mind Gypsy lady you're a mircle work for me You set my soul free like a ship sailing on the sea She is the sunlight when skies are grey She treats me so right lady take me away My maria Maria i love you My maria Maria i love you My maria Maria i love you |

Once I thought that love was something I could never do
Never knew that I could feel this much But this yearning in the deep part of my heart for you Is more than a reaction to your touch It's a perfect passion and I can't get enough [Chorus] The way you look, the way you laugh, The way you love with all you have, There ain't nothing 'bout you that don't do something for me The way you kiss, the way you cry, The way you move when you walk by There ain't nothing 'bout you (there ain't nothing bout you) That don't do something for me In my life I've been hammered by some heavy blows That never knocked me off my feet All you gotta do is smile at me and down I go And baby it's no mystery why I surrender Girl you got everything [Chorus] I love your attitude, your rose tattoo, your every thought Your smile, your lips and girl the list goes on and on and on [Chorus] The way you look, the way you laugh, The way you love with all you have, Your dance, your drive, you make me feel alive The way you talk, the way you tease By now I think you see There ain't nothing 'bout you that don't do something for me |

Maybe it was the moonlight
The scent of you on the breeze Maybe it was your shadow that fell over me Such a beautiful stranger Eyes darker than coal Your first look crossed the desert Into my soul Mi Corzon perdido en ti My heart is lost to you You have captured my love completely My heart is lost to you Oh my heart is lost to you Maybe it was the music The way it moved with your hair Or the heat of the moment That hung in the air But when I saw you there dancing Mesmerized by the gaze There was some kind of magic That led me away <i>[chorus]</i> |

Connie came back from her second cousin's wedding
First time she'd been home in 'bout a year or two Just in time for the rehearsal dinner But that crazy Connie wasn't wearing any shoes [Chorus] She lives in L.A. she flies to New York City That woman's been around the world You can take that girl out of the honky tonk But you can't take the honky tonk, can't take the honky tonk Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Out of that girl Well the dinner broke up at about 11:30 And the boys went off to do what boys will do Connie said come here girls we need to huddle up Around something that's a hundred proof [Chorus] It's nine a.m. in front of the church People are going nuts just looking for the groom And by the way where's Connie She's run off with that boy in Cancun [Chorus] |

Sun coming' up over New York City
School bus driver in a traffic jam Staring out at the faces in a rear view mirror Lookin' at the promise of the Promised Land One kid dreams of fame and fortune One kid helps pay the rent One could end up going to prison One just might be president [Chorus] Only in America Dreamin' in red white and blue Only in America Where we dream as big as we want to We all get a chance Everybody gets to dance Only in America Sun goin' down on an LA freeway Newly weds in the back of a limosine A welder's son and a banker's daughter All they want is every thing She came out here to be an actress He was a singer in a band They might just go back to Oklahoma And talk about the stars they could have been [Chorus] We all get a chance Everybody gets to dance Only in America [Chorus] We all get a chance Everybody gets to dance Only in America Yeah Only in America Only in America Where we dream in red white and blue Yeah we dream as big as we want to Only in America |
