"Heyday Tonight"

"Heyday Tonight"


I said hey sugar mama
I'm a gonna wanna gotta have a heyday tonight
So lets have a ball at the ole dance hall
And later on we just might
Go make a little love beneath the moon above
Until the mornin light
Sugar mama I'm a gonna wanna gotta have a heyday tonight
Well Ive been pushed down kicked around
All over town all week
Burnin both ends from dusk til dawn

Tryin to make ends meet
Tell me why, Lord tell me why
Nice guys end up last in line
Theres only one thing on Gods green earth
To get this cruel world off my mind

I'm a gonna wanna gotta have a heyday tonight
So lets have a ball at the ole dance hall
And later on we just might
Go make a little love beneath the moon above
Until the mornin light
I'm a gonna wanna gotta have a heyday tonight

Id say Monday is the worst day

For those workin man blues
And Tuesday and Wednesdays more the same ole bad news
Well Thursdays ok and Fridays gettin brighter
When the whistle blows at 5:00
I'm comin home to pull an all-nighter

Sugar mama I'm a gonna wanna gotta have a heyday tonight
So lets have a ball at the ole dance hall
And later on we just might
Go make a little love beneath the moon above
Until the mornin light
Sugar mama I'm a gonna wanna gotta have a heyday tonight

I'm a gonna wanna gotta have a heyday tonight
So kick off your shoes, forget about your blues
And let your troubles take flight
Well you and me hun well have a little fun
Until the mornin light
I'm a gonna wanna gotta have a heyday tonight

I'm a gonna wanna gotta have a heyday tonight
So lets make a little love beneath the moon above
In the glow of a kerosene light
Well be turnin on and on til the break of dawn
Til we turn it on just right
Sugar mama I'm a gonna wanna gotta have a heyday tonight
Im a gonna wanna gotta have a heyday tonight

"Hollywood"

"Hollywood"


About every time you turn on your television there's another so-called movie star either suing somebody or going back to jail or out of rehab and right back to the bar.

I bet you heard about the two celebrities.
They threw away a fortune on their wedding day.
Looking back they should have fed half the world instead and now they are getting a divorce in LA.

So you can keep your caviar and your champagne and your million dollar mansion in Bel-Air.
Who really cares if you drive a Maserati? Who gives a flip about the fancy clothes you wear?
Cause all the money in your dog eat dog kind of world couldn't buy you a lick of happiness.
No Hollywood wouldn't know love if love walked up and gave Hollywood a kiss.

Oh poor poor little rich girl, her daddy has hotels to burn.
She's got a slogan that's hot, talent that's not, no she don't have a care or concern.
She's got a private jet, videos on the net, and VIP parties every other hour.
She's got her BFF, an entourage, and a chef. Ego bigger than the Eiffel Tower.

Honey you can keep your caviar and your champagne and your million dollar mansion in Bel-Air.
Who really cares if you drive a Maserati? Who gives a flip about the fancy clothes you wear?
Cause all the money in your dog eat dog kind of world couldn't buy you a lick of happiness.
No Hollywood wouldn't know love if love walked up and gave Hollywood a kiss.

Supermodel, rock stars, hundred thousand dollar cars, treating life like a pleasure cruise.
You know there's not a lot of difference between cheap toilet paper and the supermarket tabloid news.
Now you can throw a hissy fit, you can blame it on the fame, or the pressure and the paparazzi but what we all really need is lots of love from above and a little more and more less vanity.

So you can keep your caviar and your champagne and your million dollar mansion in Bel-Air.
Who really cares if you drive a Maserati? Who gives a flip about the fancy clothes you wear?
Cause all the money in your dog eat dog kind of world couldn't buy you a lick of happiness.
No Hollywood wouldn't know love if love walked up and gave Hollywood a kiss.

No Hollywood wouldn't know love if love walked up and gave Hollywood a kiss.

"Honky Tonk Kid"
(with Willie Nelson)

"Honky Tonk Kid"
(with Willie Nelson)



He's wrinkled and gray but he's still got the fire
And he sings on the stage like a bird on a wire
He'll pack 'em in just like he always did
Everybody loves The Honky Tonk Kid

He got his first guitar when he was fifteen
Thirstin' for knowledge, all hungry and green
Strummin' that six string just like Lefty did
Everybody loves The Honky Tonk Kid

[Chorus:]
Well the Honky Tonk Kid loves a honky tonk crowd
He picks them up when this world gets them down
All the smoke and the neon keep his pain here
Nobody knows The Honky Tonk Kid

Ten million fans and a hand full of friends
He'll go home alone when each night ends
He'll think about her and he'll twist off the lid
Cause nobody loves The Honky Tonk Kid

[Chorus x2]

It won't be long the lord will take him away
He'd sung his last song, they'll place a reef on his grave
But he'll draw a crowd just like he always did
One last goodbye for The Honky Tonk Kid

"Honky Tonkin' Around Texas"

"Honky Tonkin' Around Texas"


Ahh let's go honky tonkin'
Let's go honky tonkin'
Have a honky tonkin' good time with us
Ahh let's go honky tonkin'
Let's go honky tonkin'
Honky tonkin' round Texas

Well I'll put some diesel in the tank
Give that old Detroit a crank
We'll sit back and let that silver eagle fly
Well up and down that Lonestar State
Let's have a honky tonkin' tail gate
And don't forget to kiss your baby good bye

[Chorus]

Stick out a thumb and bum a ride
Hitch-hike across the country side
Come see why they call this place God's country
Well criss-cross in the Colorado
From Amarillo to Zapata
Every town along the way from A to Z

[Chorus]

Well my mom called me up
And she gave me my last warning
Said there'll be hell to pay
If I miss church this Sunday morning

"Houston"

"Houston"


Well, Houston
Houston means that I'm one day closer to you
Oh, Houston
Houston means the last day of the tour and we're through

Well, honey, you and
God in Heaven above know I love what I do for a livin', I do
Ah, but Houston
Houston means that I'm one day closer to you

Well, singin' at the world's biggest rodeo show
Was a great time for me and the guys
Ah, but when I'm away from you, honey
Time always never flies

And sleepin' all alone in that holiday hotel
Sure makes a cowboy blue
Ah, but here I am in Houston
And I'm one day closer to you

Well, Houston
Houston means that I'm one day closer to you
Oh, Houston
Houston means the last day of the tour and we're through

Well, honey, you and
God in Heaven above know I love what I do for a livin', I do
Ah, but Houston
Houston means that I'm one day closer to you

Well, Houston
Houston means that I'm one day closer to you
Well, Houston
Houston means the last day of the tour and we're through

Well, honey, you and
God in Heaven above know I love what I do for a livin', I do
Ah, but Houston
Houston means that I'm one day closer to you
Well, honey, Houston
Houston means that I'm one day closer to you

"I Don't Wan't You To Go (When All Those Aggies Move To Austin)"


Here we go....
You're too hard to handle
Scandal after scandal
You must think I'm naive
I don't want you to go
But I need you to leave
It's wild alibis and those outrageous lies
You expect me to believe
I don't want you to go
But I need you to leave
Well, I've thought about it and I've made up my mind
It's time we call it quits
You know you may be fun for Saturday night
But the rest of the week is the pits
Measure what we have between the good and the bad
And there's just too much uncertainty
I don't want you to go
But I need you to leave
Because you placed the blame on the pink champagne
For dancin' naked on New Year's Eve
I don't want you to go
But I need you to leave
I'll buy a one-way ticket to destination - you pick it
Anywhere from Tulsa to Tel Aviv
I don't want you to go
But I need you to leave
Well, I've thought about it and I've made up my mind
It's time we call it quits
You know you may be fun for Saturday night
But the rest of the week is the pits
Anytime you're nice, I can't help but think twice
There's always something up your sleeve
I don't want you to go
But I need you to leave
I don't want you to go
But I need you to leave
Aw yeah....

"I Met Jesus In A Bar"

"I Met Jesus In A Bar"


I met Jesus in a bar
I guess you just can't fall too far
I was pourin' whiskey in an empty heart
When I met Jesus in a bar

Man or angel, son of God he did not tell me who he was (but I knew)
In that least expected place I saw heaven in His face and couldn't move
We sat there for hours, I could feel His grace and power
and I said things I'd never told a soul
I asked for forgiveness, he said I've already done this don't you know?

I met Jesus in a bar
I guess you just can't fall too far
I was pourin' whiskey in an empty heart
When I met Jesus in a bar

I started cryin' in my hands when I looked up again, He was gone
Then I walked the whole way home for the first time knowin' I was not alone
Some meet Him on the highway, some meet Him on a Sunday on the back row of the church
But I can only tell you my way was in a place where people go to hurt

I met Jesus in a bar
I guess you just can't fall too far
I was pourin' whiskey in an empty heart
When I met Jesus in a bar

I was pourin' whiskey in an empty heart
When I met Jesus in a bar

"I'm A Memory"

"I'm A Memory"


I'm a game that you used to play
And I'm a plan that you didn't lay so well
And I'm a fire that burns in your mind
So close your eyes I'm a memory

I'm a love that you bought for a song
And I'm a voice on a green telephone
And I'm a day that lasted so long
So close your eyes I'm a memory

I'm a dream that comes with the night
And I'm a face that fades with the light
And I'm a tear that falls out of sight
So close your eyes I'm a memory

I'm a love that you bought for a song
And I'm a voice on a green telephone
And I'm a day that lasted so long
So close your eyes I'm a memory
