My old friend said to me
That I'm not being what I'm supposed to be. Well I don't know, could be true, I know I wasn't always there for you. And now you're ready to walk out, you're ready to run, Talk to me, can't you see I would never wanna do what it seems I've done. You cant deal me the aces and think I wouldn't play, Don't let this be the reason you would walk away. The things you think I should do, I've never understood that part of you. You know I've tried to be a friend, But you feel undermined and hurt again. Now, don't let it convince you, Please don't take it to heart, Compromise and realize, You can never really run everything you start. You can't deal me the aces and think I wouldn't play. Don't let this be the reason you would walk away. And I guess I said I couldn't see That things would turn out like they've come to be. And if I lied, and if I knew, I was only trying to think of you. And now you're ready to walk out, You're ready to run. Talk to me, can't you see I would never wanna do what it seems I've done You can't deal me the aces and think I wouldn't play. Don't let this be the reason you would walk away, Don't let this be the reason you would walk away. |

I want to be a cowboy's sweetheart
I want to learn to rope and to ride I want to ride o'er the plains and the deserts Out west of that great divide I want to hear the coyotes howlin' While the sun sinks in the West I want to be a cowboy's sweetheart That's the life I love the best (Yodeling) I want to ride Old Paint goin' at a run I want to feel the wind in my face A thousand miles from all the city lights Goin' a cowhand's pace I want to pillow my head near the sleeping herd While the moon shines down from above I want to strum my guitar and yodelay-hee-hoo Oh that's the life that I love (Yodeling) I want to be a cowboy's sweetheart I want to learn to rope and to ride I want to ride o'er the plains and the deserts Out west of that great divide I want to hear the coyotes howlin' While the sun sinks in the West I want to be a cowboy's sweetheart That's the life I love the best (Yodeling) |

She'll take the painting in the hallway,
The one she did in junior high, And that old lamp up in the attic, She'll need some light to study by, She's had 18 years, To get ready for this day, She should be past the tears, She cries some anyway. Ohho letting go. Theres nothing in the way now Ohh letting go, Theres room enough to fly, And even though, she's spent her whole time waiting It's never easy, ohh letting go. Mother sits down at the table, So many things she'd like to do, Spend more time out in the garden, Now she can get those books read too, She's had 18 years, To get ready for this day She should be past the tears, She cries some anyway. Ohho letting go. Theres nothing in the way now Ohh letting go, Theres room enough to fly, And even though, she's spent her whole time waiting It's never easy, ohh letting go. Ohho letting go. Theres nothing in the way now Ohh letting go, Theres room enough to fly, And even though, she's spent her whole time waiting It's never easy, ohh letting go.... |

I don't want to be standing here
With this ticket for this outbound plane 'Cause I've been here before And somehow it doesn't feel the same Talk is cheap, so we could talk all night long We may never figure out just where our love went wrong. AndI don't wanna be standin' here And I don't wanna be talkin' here And I don't really care who's to blame 'Cause if love won't fly on its own free will It's gonna catch that outbound plane. The old folks say loves not forever anymore Because these young people walk away From love alone, to pace the floor Young or old I say that love is still the same And you may walk away from love But you'll fall head and heel again. AndI don't wanna be standin' here And I don't wanna be talkin' here And I don't really care who's to blame 'Cause if love won't fly on its own free will It's gonna catch that outbound plane. Two lonely hearts in this aiport knowing Neither cares where that other heart is going But if love won't fly on its own free will It's gonna catch that outbound plane. That crown you're wearin' Is just your halo turned upside down Where is the laughter we once shared Back in the lost and found These broken wings are gonna leave me here To stand my ground You can have this ticket For that lonely plane thats flyin' out. I don't wanna be standin' here And I don't wanna be talkin' here And I don't really care who's to blame 'Cause if love won't fly on its own free will It's gonna catch that outbound plane. If love won't fly on its own free will It's gonna catch that outbound plane... |

The wind is blowing from a new direction
If you're thinking 'bout going, I know It's been a long season, and hard on our affections But that's no reason to let go You change just like the weather But the weather you know will always change If you stay it'll get better Wherever you go it's bound to rain So put on your jacket and stand your ground Love's gonna have its highs and lows If we turn and face it, the wind will come around You don't have to chase it when it blows You change just like the weather But the weather you know will always change If you stay it'll get better Wherever you go it's bound to rain You change just like the weather But the weather you know will always change If you stay it'll get better Wherever you go it's bound to rain You change just like the weather... |

You're mascara's runnin' and your hair is a mess
And what have you spilled on your party dress Sittin' in the kitchen all broken-hearted Lookin' for comfort in an ice-cream carton But all you want, all you really want. Is somebody to love, you want somebody Oh, you've got to be strong It's not enough to want somebody Just 'cause the night is long You've got to be tough and hold out honey 'cause What you really want is somebody to love. I've been to all of the places you go to And I've danced the tango with Cassanova The wine and the roses are so continental But the champagne is flat and the tux is a rental All you want, all you really want. Is somebody to love, you want somebody Oh, you've got to be strong It's not enough to want somebody Just 'cause the night is long You've got to be tough and hold out honey 'cause What you really want is somebody to love. Yeah, you want somebody To tear the night apart Someone to love you back, now honey That's a darn good start. You've got to be tough and hold out honey 'cause What you really want is somebody to love Somebody to love... |

Well I knew a man named Campbell he'd cheat and steal and gamble
And I guess he tried most everything lowdown He was out tomcattin' last night when he got in a great big fight And then a big policeman came and slapped him down He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now) He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now) Well I told him once or twice to quit drinkin' gin and shootin' dice He's in the jailhouse now Well when I met Bill's old gal Saddie and she said (have you seen my baby) And I told her he was downtown in the can Well old Saddie she started fussin' she went down to the jailhouse a cussin' She said I come down here to get my man She's in the jailhouse now (she's in the jailhouse now) She's in the jailhouse now (she's in the jailhouse now) So you can understand how little old Saddie got throwed in the can She's in the jailhouse now Well old Bill broke out one day I guess he thought he get away But at the railway station they took him by the arm The chief said I've come for you and Bill said (now this won't do) Because Bill Campbell never was my name He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now) He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now) Well old Bill he broke out and all over town the fool walked about He's in the jailhouse now He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now) Well I told him once or twice to quit drinkin' gin and shootin' dice He's in the jailhouse now |

Maybe it's true we're not together
But when I close my eyes, You're still here. The sweet taste of love can last forever. Sometimes it makes me cry, But I still find a smile for every tear. Maybe I am blue, Maybe I'm crazy too, But I'll always love you Cross my broken heart. When I hear your name in conversation, I melt into a dream. I can't forget. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. It hurts me now and then But I'd do it all again, With no regrets. Maybe I am blue, Maybe I'm crazy too, But I'll always love you Cross my broken heart I could say love wasn't worth All the tears that it took, But I wouldn't lie to you now, You know I never could. Maybe I am blue, Maybe I'm crazy too, But I'll always love you Cross my broken heart. Maybe I'm crazy too, But I'll always love you Cross my broken heart... |

Comes from down in southern Colorado Just out of the service, he's lookin' for his fun Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon.

We believed in fairy tales that day
I watched your father give you away Your aim was true a pink bouquet It fell right into my hands We danced for hours and we drank champagne You screamed and laughed when I got up and sang And then you rode away in a white Mustang To your castle in the sand Through the years and the kids and the jobs And the dreams that lost their way Do you ever stop and wonder Do you ever just wanna say Hey,Hey Cinderella what's the story all about I've got a funny feeling We missed a page or two somehow Oh, Cinderella maybe you could help us out Does the shoe, fit you now Your older but no more the wise But learn the art of compromise Sometimes we laugh, sometimes we cry And sometimes we just break down We're good now 'cause we have to be We come to terms with our vanity Sometimes we still curse gravity When no one is around Yeah, I don't gather dust in the corner of the attic Bicycle rusting in the rain Still we walk in the fabled shadow Sometimes we call her name Hey, Hey Cinderella what's the story all about I've got a funny feeling We missed a page or two somehow Oh, Cinderella maybe you could help us out Does the shoe, fit you now Hey, Cinderella maybe you could help us out Does the shoe, fit you now Fit you now Oh, Cinderella (Cinderella) Does it fit you now Cinderella (Cinderella) Ohh, Cinderella (Cinderella) Fit you now (Cinderella) Oh - Oh - Oh - Ooo... |

Forget about it, I'm admittin' I was wrong
So, I'll just take my old guitar and walk out the door Forget about it, I'll be gone And you'll have memories you'll find hard to ignore. 'Cause after all I'll see you sometimes maybe When I can't recall how you drove me crazy Forget about it, when forever's over I won't remember how much I love you anymore. Forget about it, put me out of your head Now that you're free and easy out there on the town Forget about it, when you're lying in your bed Just wishing I was there to lay my body down. 'Cause after all I'll see you sometimes, baby When you will recall how I drove you crazy Forget about those starlit nights Laying by the fireside holding tight. I can't remember when it felt so right So just forget about it. Forget about it, if you see me On the street don't wave don't wink Don't try to tease me with your smile Forget about it if we chance to meet somewhere Don't think it's 'cause I'm tryin' to reconcile. 'Cause after all I'll see you sometimes, baby When I can't recall how you drove me crazy Forget about those starlit nights. Forget about those starlit nights. Forget about it... |

The moon is full but my arms are empty
All night long how I've pleaded and cried You always said the day that you would leave me Would be a cold day in July Your bags are packed but not a word is spoken Guess we said everything with goodbye Time goes so fast when promises got broken 'Cause here's that cold day in July Sun's coming up, coming up, down on main street Children shout as they're running out to play Head in my hands here I am standing in my bare feet Watching you drive away Watching you drive away You said that we were going to last forever You said our love would never die It looks like spring and feels like sunny weather But it's a cold day in July Sun's coming up, coming up, down on main street Children shout as they're running out to play Head in my hands here I am standing in my bare feet Watching you drive away Watching you drive away The moon is full my arms are empty All night long how I've pleaded and cried Sun's coming up on the day you're gonna leave me And it's a cold day in July Here comes that cold day in July |

Put those guitars in their cases
Put those cases on the truck Drive that truck on to Memphis Tune those guitars back up. What we really love is playin' Rollin' never slowin' down But tonight I feel like stayin' I kind of like this little town. And I'm not ready to pack it up yet If you don't have to go Let's make this a night we'll never forget There's time for one more one more for the road. Tonight the lights feel like heaven Makes me want to give it all I got That's what I do for a livin' Am I lucky or what. And I'm not ready to pack it up yet If you don't have to go Let's make this a night we'll never forget There's time for one more one more for the road. What we really love is playin' Rollin' never slowin' down But tonight I feel like stayin' I kind of like this little town. And I'm not ready to pack it up yet If you don't have to go I'd like to stay here and pick one with Chet There's time for one more, one more for the road. |

Do you ever wonder what happened to us
Prob'bly you don't think about it too much If I could hold you I know what I'd say But I don't even know where you are Just that you're so far away Far and away you were the love of my life No one comes close, I don't have to think twice Nobody else hurt me that much, when they went away You couldn't stay, I tried to hold on Until the day you left me alone Still I'd have to say you were the best love I've known far and away. I'm not the kind to live in the past I can't go back and the days go so fast I try to be strong and live for today And it will be brighter tomorrow But right now it's so far away Far and away you were the love of my life No one comes close, I don't have to think twice Nobody else hurt me that much, when they went away You couldn't stay, I tried to hold on Until the day you left me alone Still I'd have to say you were the best love I've known far and away. Still, I'd have to say you were the best love I've known far and away... |

I didn't say we wouldn't hurt anymore
That's how you learn you just get burned We don't have to feel like dirt anymore Though love's not learned, baby it's our turn We were always looking for true love With our heads in the clouds Just a little off course But I left that motor running Now, if you're feeling down and out Come on baby drive south With the one you love Come on baby drive south I'm not talking about retreating, no sir Gonna take our stand in this chevy van Windows open on the rest of the world Holding hands all the way to dixie land We've been trying to turn our lives, around Since we were little kids It's been wearing us down Don't turn away now darling Lets fire it up and wind it out Come on baby drive south With the one you love Come on baby drive south I heard your momma calling I think she was only stalling Don't know who she's talking to Baby me or you We can go south with a smile on Ain't going to pack my nylons Just leave these legs showing It gets hot down where were going We were always looking for true love With our heads in the clouds Just a little off course But I left that motor running Now, if you're feeling down and out Come on baby drive Come on baby drive south With the one you love Come on baby drive south... |

Just when I thought I had kissed love goodbye,
And ridden off into the sunset, This hip shooting cowboy steps up and says: "Reach for the sky." I could tell he was fast, I could tell he was smart; I could tell he was looking for trouble. He was fixing to take his best shot at my bullet proof heart. I'm under the gun, I'm under attack. The sights are lined up, The hammer is back. I'm under the gun, And it's going down to the wire. I'm under the gun, He's aiming to win. He's thinking he might, Get under my skin, If he hits me with his fire. I'm under the gun. Just when I thought I had gotten away, With all of the hearts I had stolen, He looks in my eyes and says: "Crimes of the heart do not pay." It was too late to talk, it was too late to run, It was too late to hold up this showdown. It was already all said and done, I was under the gun. I'm under the gun, I'm under attack. The sights are lined up, The hammer is back. I'm under the gun, And it's going down to the wire. I'm under the gun, He's aiming to win. He's thinking he might, Get under my skin, If he hits me with his fire. Oh, I'm under the gun. I'm under the gun, I'm under attack. The sights are lined up, The hammer is back. I'm under the gun, And it's going down to the wire. I'm under the gun... |

Funny we should meet
The three of us here on the street You know I've wondered what I'd say Now the moment's here And suddenly it's crystal clear Some things are never gonna change From where I stand I see an old familiar story Only last time I was in your shoes Now it's looking like it's my turn to be lonely And I tell you I don't like the view I was just like you For me he left somebody too And I didn't care if that was wrong Oh, but now I've found The tears you cause come back around And they're coming your way before too long From where I stand I see an old familiar story Only last time I was in your shoes Now it's looking like it's my turn to be lonely And I tell you I don't like the view From where I stand We've got a lot in common and There's a good chance you'll be Standing one day right here From where I stand I see an old familiar story Only last time I was in your shoes Now it's looking like it's my turn to be lonely And I tell you I don't like the view From where I stand I see an old familiar story Only last time I was in your shoes Now it's looking like it's my turn to be lonely And I tell you I don't like the view... |

Give me some wheels, put me on a highway
Won't look back anyway I'll never be the angel, you see in your dreams Oh, give me some wheels, if I can't have wings We live in a world that suits you well But it feels like a cage to me And the pedestal you tried to put me on Just slipped out from under my feet Oh, give me some wheels, put me on a highway Won't look back anyway I'll never be the ange,l you see in your dreams Oh, give me some wheels, if I can't have wings Give me some wheels You never knew me anyway I just couldn't make you see While you were looking For the words to make me stay I was looking for the keys Oh, give me some wheels, put me on a highway Won't look back anyway I'll never be the angel, you see in your dreams Oh, give me some wheels, if I can't have wings Give me some wheels I couldn't love you any better than that But you never seemed satisfied What I'm trying to say is I need a man who don't mind letting me drive Oh, give me some wheels, put me on a highway Won't look back anyway I'll never be your angel, whatever that means Oh, give me some wheels, if I can't have wings Give me some wheels Oh, give me some wheels Give me some wheels... |
