Sometimes it's hard to be a woman
Giving all your love to just one man You'll have bad times, and he'll have good times Doin' things that you don't understand But if you love him, you'll forgive him Even though he's hard to understand And if you love him, oh be proud of him 'Cause after all he's just a man. Stand by your man, give him two arms to cling to And something warm to come to When nights are cold and lonely. Stand by your man, and show the world you love him Keep giving all the love you can. Stand by your man. Stand by your man, and show the world you love him Keep giving all the love you can. Stand by your man. |

Our little boy is four years old and quite a little man
So we spell out the words we don't want him to understand Like T-O-Y or maybe S-U-R P-R-I-S-E But the words we're hiding from him now Tear the heart right out of me. Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E; becomes final today Me and little J-O-E will be goin' away I love you both and this will be pure H-E double L for me Oh, I wish that we could stop this D-I-V-O-R-C-E. Watch him smile, he thinks it Christmas Or his 5th Birthday And he thinks C-U-S-T-O-D-Y spells fun or play I spell out all the hurtin' words And turn my head when I speak 'Cause I can't spell away this hurt That's drippin' down my cheek. Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E; becomes final today Me and little J-O-E will be goin' away I love you both and this will be pure H-E double L for me Oh, I wish that we could stop this D-I-V-O-R-C-E. |

I beg your pardon I never
promised you a rose garden along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes when you take you got to give so live and let live or let go I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden I could promise you things like big diamond rings but you don't find roses growing on stocks of clover so you better think it over well if sweet talking you would make it come true I'd give you the world right now on a silver platter but what would it matter so smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy come along and share the good times while we can I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon but if that's what it takes to hold you I'd just as soon let you go but there's one thing I want you to know you better look before you leap still water runs deep and there won't always be someone there to pull you out and you know what I'm talkin' about so smile for a while and let's be jolly love shouldn't be so melancholy come on and share the good times while we can I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden along with the sunshine there's got to be a little rain sometimes I beg your pardon I never promised you a rose garden |

Goodbye blues I'm not gonna sing you no more
I finally got my hands on what I'v been looking for I've found me a man that knows how to keep me eatin' from the palm of his hand Talk about sunshine I've got the sunshine man Man what a man what a man what a man my man is There's not a day when he doesn't say he needs me and loves me Man what a man what a man what a man my man is He's always around when I'm down the most with two lovin' arms to hold me close Man what a man what a man what a man my man is [ guitar ] Hello rainbow I've finally found your pot of gold I finally got my hands on a real live dream I can hold I've found me a man that knows how to keep me sittin' up on cloud nine Talk about the music I hear it all the time Man what a man what a man... |

From the corners of the country
From the cities and the farms With years and years of living Tucked up underneath their arms They walk away from everything Just to see a dream come true So God bless the boys who make the noise On 16th Avenue With a million dollar spirit And an old flattop guitar They drive to town with all they own In a hundred dollar car 'Cause one time someone told them About a friend of a friend they knew Who owns, you know, a studio On 16th Avenue Now some were born to money They've never had to say ??Survive?? And others swing a 9 pound hammer Just to stay alive There's cowboys drunks and Christians Mostly white and black and blue They've all dialed the phone collect to home From 16th Avenue Ah, but then one night in some empty room Where no curtains ever hung Like a miracle some golden words Rolled off of someone's tongue And after years of being nothing They're all looking right at you And for a while they'll go in style On 16th Avenue It looked so uneventful So quiet and discreet But a lot of lives where changed Down on that little one way street 'Cause they walk away from everything Just to see a dream come true So God bless the boys who make the noise On 16th Avenue |
