"She's Got That Look In Her Eyes"

"She's Got That Look In Her Eyes"



She's still got those pretty eyes
Like she did in school
The first time that she looked at me
My heart went ka-boom
Today I saw that look again
On sale in summer square
She looked so good in what she wore
Somehow it don't seem fair

She's got that look in her eyes
Just like she's always had
She's got that smile on her lips
That always drives me mad
When she looks at me
The way I feel comes as no surprise
I love that look
When she's got that look in her eyes

Just today she looked at me
And I felt like a kid
Even though I'm grown up now
The puzzle seems to fit
I may never have her
But I'll still love her still
Oh I may never hold her
In my mind I always will

She's got that look in her eyes
Just like she's always had
She's got that smile on her lips
That always drives me mad
When she looks at me
The way I feel comes as no surprise
I love that look
When she's got that look in her eyes

When she looks at me
The way I feel comes as no surprise
I love that look
When she's got that look in her eyes...

"Silent Night"

"Silent Night"



Silent night, holy night!
All is calm, All is bright
Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child
Holy Infant so Tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.

Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight!
Glories stream from heaven afar;
Heavenly hosts sing Al-le-lu-ia!
Christ the Saviour is born!
Christ the Saviour is born!

Silent night, holy night!
Wondrous star, lend thy light!
With the angels let us sing
Alleluia to our King!
Christ the Saviour is here,
Jesus the Saviour is here!

Silent night, Holy night!
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face,
With the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus Lord at thy birth;
Jesus Lord at thy birth.

"Simple As That"

"Simple As That"



Out on Highway 1, I saw a camper van
Parked out on the shoulder
Thinkin' they had broken down, I pulled over
There was a little old lady and her old man
Kickin' back relaxin'
They said, "Sit down and help us
Celebrate our golden anniversary"
They had foldin' chairs, they were holdin' hands
Starin' at the fields
I said, "Man this ain't no movie, this is real"

Love should be as simple as that
Foldin' chairs, holdin' hands
And matching baseball caps
Love is wanting what you have
Love should be as simple as that

They said, "Stay awhile", I siad, "I thought I might
And ask some burnin' questions
Like how'd you make love last so long"
They started laughing
He said, "To keep our love from danger,
I treat her like a stranger
Courteous, considerate and kind"

Love should be as simple as that
Foldin' chairs, holdin' hands
And matching baseball caps
Love is wanting what you have
Love should be as simple as that

So I went home and I said, "Baby, baby listen"
There is something missin' in our lives
She said, "I know, I been tryin' to tell you
We need more communication, an exotic vacation
Big screen tv, redwood jacuzzi
Dinners out, concerts and movies
New kitchen, big addition, a pool, jewelry
Sauna, fish pond and a five acre lawn"
I said, "Get in the camper"

Love should be as simple as that
Foldin' chairs, holdin' hands
And matching baseball caps
Love is wanting what you have
Love should be as simple as that

Love should be as simple as that
Love should be as simple as that...

"Small Stuff"

"Small Stuff"



There's a little cafe' on the corner of town
Lucy works there 'til the sun goes down
It ain't very much but she brings home
The bacon and the bread
We got a mortgage we pay just a little bit on
But it seems like all of our money is gone
Before we get a chance to get ahead
That's small stuff, we don't sweat the small stuff

Why worry about the mortgage and the minimum wage
Traffic and the taxes and the coming of age
Small stuff
There's a comfort in the knowing there's a spirit in us
Giving us the courage and the wisdom to trust
In a love that's so much greater than all the small stuff
So we don't sweat the small stuff

There's a little bitty hole in the ceiling above
Sometimes the rain drips down on our temple of love
We have to put a pot smack dab in the middle of the bed
Somebody hit my car at the diner last night
Had to drive it home with one taillight
When I went out this morning, the engine was dead
That's small stuff, we don't sweat the small stuff

Why worry about the mortgage and the minimum wage
Traffic and the taxes and the coming of age
Small stuff
There's a comfort in the knowing there's a spirit in us
Giving us the courage and the wisdom to trust
In a love that's so much greater than all the small stuff
So we don't sweat the small stuff

There's a little cafe' on the corner of town
Lucy works there 'til the sun goes down
And she don't sweat the small stuff...

"Some Other Place, Some Other Time"

"Some Other Place, Some Other Time"



I remember, walking through flowers
In a garden of a mem'ry I'm thinkin' of
I remember, being in heaven
Some other place, some other time, some other love

I remember, walking on silver sand
With a mid summer moon shining above
And I remember, the taste of her sweet lips
Some other place, some other time, some other love

I remember holding her close to me
And I can picture the nights we shared alone
When I'm dreaming, it all seems so real to me
Then I wake up and find it's all done

Tomorrow, I may be holding another girl
But tonight she's not the one I'm thinkin' of
Could it be, my life would just be a mem'ry
Of some other place, some other time, some other love
Of some other place, some other time, some other love
Of some other place, some other time, some other love...

"Sometimes Out Of Touch"

"Sometimes Out Of Touch"



There were times I stood my ground
When I knew you were right
Turned around and walked away
When I should've held you tight
But you never closed the door
You just turned out the light
Gave me time to think it over
A chance to make it right

Sometimes out of touch
But never out of love
Sometimes giving in
But never giving up
We've been worlds apart
Yet always close enough
Yeah, we've been out of touch
But never out of love

No matter how we try
There still may come a time
When our minds are far apart
But I know you and me
Will always find a way to be
Together in our hearts

Sometimes out of touch
But never out of love
Sometimes giving in
Oh, but never giving up
We've been worlds apart
Yet always close enough
Yeah, we've been out of touch
But never out of love

Yeah, we've been out of touch
But never out of love...

"Song Of The South"

"Song Of The South"



Song, Song of the south
Sweet potato pie, and I shut my mouth
Gone, gone with the wind
There aint no body looking back again

Cotton on roadside, cotton on the ditch
We all picked the cotton but we never got rich
Daddy was a veteren, a southern democrat
They oughta get rich man to vote like that singing

Song song of the south
Sweet potato pie, and i shut my mouth
Gone gone with the wind
There aint no body looking back again

Well somebody told us wall street fell
But we were so poor that we couldnt tell
The cotton was short, and the weeds was' tall
But Mr. Roosevelt's a' gonna save us all

Well momma got sick, and daddy got down
The county got the farm, and we moved to town
Poppa got a job with the TVA
We bought a washing machine, and then a Chevrolet

Song song of the south
Sweet potatoe pie, and I shut my mouth
Gone, gone with the wind
There ain't nobody looking back again

"Southern Star"

"Southern Star"



Oh, southern star, how I wish you would shine
And show me the way to get home
Well I'm blue-collar branded, and stuck in a mill
Hard work is a way of life for me
Well I'm too young to live like I'm over the hills
And too old to be wild and free.

My heart is onward bound.
I'm rolling with the feeling and I can't slow down
I need a guiding light.
Shining down to lead me through the night
Oh, southern star, how I wish you would shine
And show me the way to get home.

Oh, hey my D.J. friend, would you play me one more song
And let my mind just go and drift away
Now we all have a dream....and a place where we belong
Somewhere we can go and escape.

My heart is onward bound.
I'm rolling with the feeling and I can't slow down
....I need a guiding light.
Shining down to lead me throught the night
Oh, southern star, how I wish you would shine
And show me the way to get home.

Oh, southern star, how I wish you would shine
And show me the way to get home...

"Spin The Wheel"

"Spin The Wheel"



We're standing like kids on a mid way,
Two hearts like tumbling dice,
We've lost control of the way we feel.

Old heart aches driving us crazy,
Is it really different this time?
We've come to far not to take a chance,
And spin the wheel!

Lay our hearts on the line,
Risk it all one more time,
Let it all ride on the way we feel

This could be another broken heart,
Or is it where true love starts?
Only one way to find out if this thing is real,
Just spin the wheel!

Round and round our dreams are rollin'
Will they land on love or good-bye?
My hearts on you head over heels

All I know is when I told you
Love is worth any chance we take
Baby lets let the chips fall where they may
Lets spin the wheel!

Lay our hearts on the line,
Risk it all one more time,
Let it all ride on the way we feel

This could be another broken heart,
Maybe this is where true love starts?
Only one way to find out if this thing is real,
Just spin the wheel!

Love is worth any chance we take
Baby lets spin the wheel!

Lay our hearts on the line (on the line)
Risk it all one more time (one more time)
Let it all ride on the way we feel

This could be another broken heart
Or maybe this is where true love starts
Only one way to find out if this thing is real
Spin the wheel.

Play are hearts on the line
Risk it all one more time
Let it all ride on the way we feel
And spin the wheel

Keep on spinnin? the wheel baby
Round and round it goes
Spinnin? the wheel
Spin the wheel
Round and round it goes
And spin the wheel
Spin the wheel

"Start Living"

"Start Living"



He just can't wait to graduate
He's marking time and counting days
He'll toss that cap and watch that tassel fly
So he can start living
Yeah, finally start living
'Cause he's got big plans
And he'll have time on his hands
To start living

Before he knows ten years are gone
A dead-end job, a mortgage loan
He wonders where the chances passed him by
To really start living
Yeah, he wants to start living
And soon he's sure
He can finally afford
To start living

He'll read more books, he'll make more love
He'll talk more to the man above
He'll watch the sunset in the west
And visit Mexico
He'll learn to cook, he'll play some ball
He'll write that book, he'll make that call
He'll take the time some other time
Someday he'll do it all

Well sittin' in the barber chair
He sees the silver in his hair
Those golden years are comin' right behind
And then he'll start living
He'll really start living
Yeah, he feels tired
Ah, but soon he'll retire
And start living

He'll read more books, he'll make more love
He'll talk more to the man above
He'll watch the sunset in the west
And visit Mexico
He'll learn to cook, he'll play some ball
He'll write that book, he'll make that call
He'll take the time some other time
Someday he'll do it all

Well the doctor says, I've got bad news
Afraid there's nothing we can do
And all at once the tears are in his eyes
He'll never start living
Never really start living
Yeah, he had big plans
But there's no time on his hands
To start living

When he sees the pearly gates
He'll really start living...
