"Wind In The Wire"

"Wind In The Wire"



I've been riding fence all day,
Way up on the summer range.
Found a place to make my bed
As the evening shadows spread
Beyond the campfire light,
In the stillness of night,
Came the call of a coyote choir,
And the song
Of the wind in the wire.

As it strummed the rusted strings,
It sang of long-forgotten things.
Many moons and many suns
Of the real Americans.
When the arrow and the bow
Stalked the range
Of the buffalo,
And the call of the coyote choir
Knew no song
Of the wind in the wire.

As the ghostly balladeer
Hypnotized me, I could hear
Bugle calls, and battle cries.
Broken promises and lies.
The spirits of the plain
Still sing their sad refrain
In the call of the coyote choir
And the song
Of the wind in the wire.

"Would I"

"Would I"



Would I
Would I
Would I

Would I go out honky tonkin' with you ever night
Dance every dance til I got them all right
Would I do every step the way you thought I should?
If I had you baby maybe yes I would
Would I

Would I wake up every morning,
bring you breakfast in bed
With the right amount of butter on your toasted bread
Would I fix your brunch, lunch and dinner just as good?
If I had you baby maybe yes I would

Well, if I had you, there'd be nothing you could do or say
To ever make me make you go away
Would I
Would I
Would I

Would I cut my hair and change the way I dressed?
Finally get around to cleaning up this mess?
Would I happily give up my batcholorhood?
If I had you baby maybe yes I would
Would I

Would I tear everybody from my little black book
Tell 'em all I was over the urge to look?
Would I marry you then just to make sure they understood?
If I had you baby maybe yes I would

Well, if I had you, there'd be nothing you could do or say
To ever make me make you go away
Would I
Would I
Would I
If I had you baby maybe yes, yes I would

"Written In Stone"

"Written In Stone"



I'm gonna take you down to the riverside
Where the water runs slow and wide
There's a big ole rock out in the middle
And I took my hammer and chisel
And worked all night so you could see
Just how much you mean to me
I carved your name right next to mine
And it'll be there till the end of time
And my love will last at least that long

It's written in stone how I feel for you
It's written in stone what I want to do
Spend my life and life hereafter loving you
And darling if we live to be 100
Or if we don't make it half that long
I want you to know how I feel for you
Is written in stone

There's a place on the edge of town
When I was a kid I found
Two names on a stone together
Lying side by side forever
And it was then and there I knew
If I ever thought a love was true
I'd surely want to write it down
On something that would be around
When all the spoken words have come and gone

It's written in stone how I feel for you
It's written in stone what I want to do
Spend my life and life hereafter loving you
And darling if we live to be 100
Or if we don't make it half that long
I want you to know what I feel for you
Is written in stone

And when this life has come and gone
Our love will still be
Written in stone how I feel for you
Written in stone what I want to do
Spend my life and life hereafter loving you
And darling if we live to be 100
Or if we don't make it half that long
I want you to know how I feel for you
Is written in stone

"You And You Alone"

"You And You Alone"



When this old world gets me down and life's a chain I drag around
When I can't find a ray of hope to help me sooth my worried soul

Only you and you alone can turn the darkest night into dawn
The only reason for hanging on is you and you alone

Holding you close to me, gives me all the strength I need
Then I wake up, it's just a dream, all that's left are memories

Of only you and you alone can turn the darkest night into dawn
The only reason for hanging on is you and you alone
My only reason for hanging on is you and your alone

"You Didn't Have A Good Time"

"You Didn't Have A Good Time"


You're hand was wrapped around the bottle
You're arm wrapped around her waist
You were running that full throttle
Big smile upon your face
You were the life of the party
But it was only in your mind
I hate to be the one to tell you
You didn't have a good time

Well I bet you don't remember
Knelling in that bathroom stall
Praying for salvation
And cursing alcohol
And you went right back to drinking
Like everything was fine
But let's be honest with each other
You didn't have a good time

So take a good hard look in the mirror
And drink that image down
I'm truth that you can't run from
I'm the conscience you can't drown
And the happiness you want so bad
You ain't gonna find
Until you start believing
You didn't have a good time

When you woke up this morning
I guess you just assumed
That you got something out of
The empty bottles in this room
There ain't an angel that can save you
Whyen you're listening to the wine
And the demons want to tell you
You didn't have a good time

[Chorus]

Somebody had to tell you
You didn't have a good time

"You Nearly Lose Your Mind"
(originally by Ernest Tubb)

"You Nearly Lose Your Mind"
(originally by Ernest Tubb)



Now if you love your momma
And try to treat her right
But she keeps on fussing at you
Everyday and night

[Chorus:]
'Cause she's gonna trifle on ya'
They do it every time
And when your baby starts a stepping
Lord you nearly lose you mind

Now if your momma's mean
Take a tip from me
Lock her up at home lord
But hang on to that key

[Chorus]

But if you momma's good
I'll tell you what to do
Give her lots of loving
But watch her closely too

[Chorus]

When you come to your momma
An' find your clothes ain't clean
You can bet your slipping
If you know just what I mean

[Chorus]

Now you may have a momma
That says that she is true
But wait till you are down and out
And really need her too

[Chorus]

Now I've been a lot of places
There's nothing I ain't done
But when it comes to women
I don't trust a one

[Chorus]

"Young Guns"

"Young Guns"


There was Dirty Steve, Charlie, Dick Brewer and Doc, Chavez and Billy the Kid.
They all rolled together for a moment in time, believin' in all that they did.
Each one was different, but they all were the same, with one common reason in mind
The cold hand of justice delivered to all who had shot a good friend from behind...they shot a good friend from behind.

Young guns who were driven by hatred and anger with no way to win in the end,
Some would be dyin' and some would be livin', the question remaining was when.

The battle to come wasn't theirs for the choosin', but they knew it wouldn't be long,
With no way to turn back and no way to stop, the anger that burned was too strong...
They rode into town unaware they were noticed, with what they must do on their minds.
They met face to face with the ones who had killed the best friend that they ever would find, the best friend they ever would find...

Young guns who were driven by hatred and anger with no way to win in the end...
Some would be dyin' and some would be livin', the question remaining was when.

It happened so quick there was no time for thinkin, the battle was finally at hand...
And down through the years we have all heard the tales of what happened time and again.
And sometimes the wind seems to echo the sounds of [?] the screamin' through town,
And some people say that their ghosts can be seen when that hot desert sun's beatin down', when that hot desert sun's beatin down...

Young guns who were driven by hatred and anger finally had evened the score.
Some were left bleedin' and some were left dyin', but some things are worth dyin' for.
