"Silver And Gold"

"Silver And Gold"


She knows what's been keepin' him out too late
She never was the kind to sit around and wait
She loosened the locket he gave her
She took off her wedding band
And when he gets home he'll find
All she's left behind is

Silver and gold
Haven't they lost their shine
Tonight she let go for the last time
Just silver and gold
Ties that no longer bind her
Now he's left alone with silver and gold

He could've kept her love so easily
It wasn't like she didn't try to make him see
But once she made up her mind
There was no turnin' back
And he's gonna understand
When all he's holdin' in his hands is

Silver and gold
Haven't they lost their shine
Tonight she let go for the last time
Just silver and gold
Ties that no longer bind her
Now he's left alone with silver and gold

And what once was sacred, only yesterday
They don't mean a thing as she walks away

Silver and gold
Haven't they lost their shine
Tonight she let go for the last time
Just silver and gold
Ties that no longer bind her
Now he's left alone with silver and gold

"South Of Sante Fe"

"South Of Sante Fe"


Where the rain dont fall and the grass dont grow
The older part of New Mexico
I drifted into town one day
And stumbled in on a lost cafe
Shades were pulled and the door was locked
Something made me knock

Time stood still when she opened the door
I didnt know where I was anymore
And we were lost in each other's eyes
Where loneliness meets paradise
Something in my heart broke free
Blowing wind as the tumbleweed

Somewhere north of heaven
Where eagles fear to fly
Where the sun burns hot as the devil's gate
The desert meets the sky
Tattooed on my memory is the image of an angels face
North of heaven, south of Santa Fe

Bad news tends to travel fast
I was running from my past
I left her when ther morning broke
Truth is I never let her go
I'm still running free
But in my heart I'll always be

Somewhere north of heaven
Where eagles fear to fly
Where the sun burns hot as the devil's gate
The desert meets the sky
Tattooed on my memory is the image of an angels face
North of heaven, south of Santa Fe
North of heaven, south of Santa Fe

"Still In Love With You"

"Still In Love With You"


My taxicab's waiting
Wish I could hold you one last time
After all we had together
There's gotta be a better way
Of telling you goodbye

If I had a horse
I'd ride off in the sunset
If I had wings, I'd fly off
In the sky so blue
If I had the time, I'd spend my
Whole life dreaming
But I'd wake up, still in love with you

Be in Baton Rouge by morning
Hope your missing me by then
I'd like to be the kind of memory
That makes you want to take me back
In your arms again

If I had a horse
I'd ride off in the sunset
If I had wings, I'd fly off
In the sky so blue
If I had the time, I'd spend my
Whole life dreaming
But I'd wake up, still in love with you

Some night when you get lonely
Will you still remember me

If I had a horse
I'd ride off in the sunset
If I had wings, I'd fly off
In the sky so blue
If I had the time, I'd spend my
Whole life dreaming
But I'd wake up, still in love with you

"Straight Tequila Night"

"Straight Tequila Night"


If you really want to know, she comes here a lot
She just loves to hear the music and dance
K-13 is her favorite song
If you play it you might have a chance

Tonight she's only sipping white wine
She is friendly and fun loving most of the time

But don't ask her on a straight tequila night
She'll start thinking about him and ready to fight
Blames her broken heart on every man in sight
On a straight tequila night

Here's a glass of champagne, some quarters and change
Maybe you can turn her love life around
And she won't need the song or the light anymore
To shoot that old memory down

Just remember her heart is on a man
If you ever come back to see her again

But don't ask her on a straight tequila night
She'll start thinking about him and ready to fight
Blames her broken heart on every man in sight
On a straight tequila night

But don't ask her on a straight tequila night
She'll start thinking about him and ready to fight
Blames her broken heart on every man in sight
On a straight tequila night

But don't ask her on a straight tequila night
She'll start thinking about him and ready to fight
Blames her broken heart on every man in sight
On a straight tequila night

But don't ask her on a straight tequila night
She'll start thinking about him and ready to fight
Blames her broken heart on every man in sight
On a straight tequila night

"Swing It"

"Swing It"


It's a white dot coming at you fast
It's a little spot snaking through the grass
Take your best shot
Show a little class
It'll come to ya
Keep your head in the game
Take the bat
Put it in your hands
Pull down your hat
Look right at the man
Be cool cat
Stick to the plan
Don't listen to the noise
Of the fans in the stands
Keep swinging it
Keep swinging it
Keep swinging it
You can do it
You can do it
You can do it
You can do it

Now keep in mind
That anything can happen
Take your time
Not this or maybe that one
Tow the line
Stick with it friend
Sure enough
Got to be present to win
Keep swinging it

Keep swinging it
Keep swinging it
You can do it
You can do it
You can do it
You can do it

It's a white dot coming at you fast
It's a little spot snaking through the grass
Take your best shot
Show a little class
It'll come to ya
Keep your head in the game
Keep swinging it
Keep swinging it
Keep swinging it
You can do it
You can do it
You can do it
You can do it
Keep swinging
Keep swinging
Keep swinging
You can do it
You can do it
You can do it
You can do it

"Temptation #9"

"Temptation #9"


Yeah I've been hurt and I've been blue
And I've been thinkin' 'bout the changes love has put me through
I've told myself it's got to end
I've had enough and I ain't goin' back again
I've watched 'em come
I've watched 'em go
Six, seven, eight and I can still say no
And then tonight you came along
Only a fool would wanna be that strong

Temptation #9
Make a man wanna cross that line
Face to face with a chance like this
There's only so much that a man can resist

I walked alone, I played it safe
Tryin' not to count the times I walked away
'Cause when you love and love goes wrong
A broken heart just seems too much to gamble on
I first saw you, I had to think
Oh another pretty woman just what I don't need
But when I look into your eyes
Hey I see somethin' makes me wanna roll the dice

Temptation #9
Make a man wanna cross that line
Face to face with a chance like this
There's only so much that a man can resist

Ooh you got it shakin'
Ooh there's no mistakin'
You're the next trip that I'll be takin'

[Chorus]

"Tequila"

"Tequila"


One shot, Two shot, Three tequila floor,
Cowboy bouncer's 'bout to bowl me out the door
Jose got me stumblin' mumblin' like a fool
That worms got a kick like a Tennessee mule
Wake up in the mornin hurtin head skinned knees
Aint no doubt about whats puttin a whoopin on me

[Chorus]

Tequila Goes down easy, lord it will sneak up on you fast
Tequila Great Big buzz in a lil bitty glass
Tequila Glass, salt, straight up, chilled,lemon lime
Blue on the rocks, frozen margarita time
Mexicali, blue aguave, fire in a bottle
Too much Cabo Wabo do the cucha racha wobble
You think by now a drinkin man would learn
You dont go toe to toe with that lil bitty worm

[Repeat Chorus]

"Tequila Town"

"Tequila Town"


Left Laredo with the sun in my eyes
Broken heart and a bloodshot sky
Been running since she left me alone
Way up north in San Antone
Days get long but I don't get far
Spent last night in some low life bar
Found her memory in some Mezcal haze
Lost my mind while the guitar played

I'm gonna carry this burden way out west
Find a way to lay this hurt to rest
Live it up 'til I live her down
Lost in tequila town

Left her standing in a tear-stained dress
I cursed the day that I confessed
Wayward sins of a mortal man
Watched the ring come off her hand

Looking back on all I've lost
Price I've paid ain't worth the cost
I'll run this road until it ends
And maybe find my way back to her again

I'm gonna carry this burden way out west
Find a way to lay this hurt to rest
Live it up 'til I live her down
Lost in tequila town

Yea I'm gonna carry this burden way out west
Find a way to lay this hurt to rest
Live it up 'til I live her down
Lost in tequila town
Yeah in tequila town

"Texas And Norma Jean"

"Texas And Norma Jean"


It was a foggy mornin' south of San Jose
We were sittin' in a crowded coffee shop
With nothin' left to say
My cup grew cold and a teardrop rolled
Down her cheek and I brushed it away
I remember it all just like yesterday

And I see it now, I feel it still
It's a day I can't forget and never will
And I hear her voice on the winds of Abilene
She used to call me Texas and I called her Norma Jean

Still see her wavin' through the radiator steam
She was stranded by the roadside on her way to bigger things
She threw her bags in back, said she liked my hat
Her name was Marilyn Justine
I fell into her California dream

And I see it now, I feel it still
It's a day I can't forget and never will
And I hear her voice on the winds of Abilene
She used to call me Texas and I called her Norma Jean

Yeah we took a lotta detours on our winding way out west
Livin' for the moment, forgettin' all the rest
The life that she had waitin' and the one I left behind
And now I'm back here tryin' to sort it out
One fence post at a time

In that coffee shop, the road just stopped
And we faced reality
The place that she was goin' had no place for me

And I see it now, I feel it still
It's a day I can't forget and never will
And I hear her voice on the winds of Abilene
She used to call me Texas and I called her Norma Jean

Yeah I called her Norma Jean

"Texas Women (Don't Stay Lonely Long)"

"Texas Women (Don't Stay Lonely Long)"


Well I'll bet by the time I get to Tulsa
She'll be pullin' on them tight blue jeans
She'll go down to Cowboy's, buy herself a cold one
And on a Friday night in Dallas, she's a cowboy's dream
Something tells me she'll sit out the first one
Then they'll play George Strait and she'll be gone
Cause heaven knows that girl was born to two-step
And Texas women don't stay lonely long

It's a fact that women like the one I left
Can find somebody else, any time they want
It's a shame, but I'm afraid the one I love
She don't like waiting much
Texas women don't stay lonely long

I'd sure like to think she'd wait forever
Welcome me back in with open arms
But she don't walk the floor, she don't count the teardrops
And she don't pick up pieces from no broken heart
I wish I could call and say I'm sorry
But there's nobody sitting by the phone
You know she meant it when she told me that she loved me
But Texas women don't stay lonely long

It's a fact that women like the one I left
Can find somebody else, any time they want
It's a shame, but I'm afraid the one I love
She don't like waiting much
Texas women don't stay lonely long

It's a fact that women like the one I left
Can find somebody else, any time they want
It's a shame, but I'm afraid the one I love
She don't like waiting much
Texas women don't stay lonely long
