"Cowboys And Angels"

"Cowboys And Angels"


On the eighth day God noticed a problem
For there below Him stood a cowboy alone
Stubborn and proud, reckless and loud
God knew he'd never make it on his own
So God looked out all over creation
And listened as that cowboy prayed
God took passion and thunder
Patience and wonder then He sent down
The best thing that God ever made

Cowboys and angels leather and lace
Salt of the earth meets heavenly grace
Cowboys and angels tested and tried
It's a long way to heaven
And one hell of a ride

Nothin's changed since the dawn of creation
For you will find them together today
And only heaven above them knows why she loves him
But he must be the reason she don't fly away

Cowboys and angels leather and lace
Salt of the earth meets heavenly grace
Cowboys and angels tested and tried
It's a long way to heaven
And one hell of a ride
It's a long way to heaven
And one hell of a ride

"Cowgirl's Saddle"

"Cowgirl's Saddle"


Last thing I remember was saying,
"Hey y'all, watch this." Next thing I know I'm walking toward this light
When a voice from out of nowhere asked this question.
"Garth, what did you love most in your past life?"
"Well," I said, "it had to be between cowgirls and horses."
And as I wondered which one that I would settle on,
The voice said, "May you be happy with your answer."
I said, "What answer?" He said, "Watch this." And I was gone.

[CHORUS]
Now I'm back as a cowgirl's saddle
Heaven on Earth for all eternity
Forever in between
Every cowboy's dream
Riding horses, holding rodeo queens

Sew me, show me, throw me in the pickup
Take me, break me, make me what you need
It's safe to say we're made for one another
And you'll never fall if you just stick with me

Fit me, sit me, get me how you want me
Wrap me, SLAP ME, STRAP ME ON YOUR STEED.
Can't believe I'm out here flying with an angel
Oh this afterlife's sure looking up for me

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Loping, roping, hoping that you're happy
Racing, placing, chasing all your dreams
Makes me think if I'd lived life a little better
Would I've come back as a pair of cowgirl jeans

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Every cowboy's dream
You know just what I mean
Riding horses, holding rodeo queens

"Digging For Gold"

"Digging For Gold"


They married on a fancy yacht out on the water
He knew she was young enough to be his daughter
There're always questions in the heart of millionaires
Would she make heartfelt promises if the money was not there

And he said, do you love me, baby, do you want me to hold
Or are you just digging for gold
Do you care enough to give me your heart and soul
Or are you just digging for gold

She ran his weary heart through the ringer
And she wore him like the diamond ring around her finger
Well, his advances and affections, she managed to avoid
But she got the lap of luxury and he got paranoid

And he said, do you love me, baby, do you want me to hold
Or are you just digging for gold
Do you care enough to give me your heart and soul
Or are you just digging for gold, digging for gold

Big house, limousines
Fine wines, fine cuisines
Vale and Vegas twice a year
Trips to Paris on the leer

Black Tuesday when that wall of wealth came crashing down
Bad news day when that little queen had to give back her crown
And he said, hey babe, we can live on love
'Cuz love is worth much more
But he barely got his feelings out, she was half way to the door
And she never even heard him cry

Do you love me, baby, do you want me to hold
Or are you just digging for gold
Do you care enough to give me your heart and soul
Or are you just digging for gold, digging for gold

Digging for gold
Digging for gold
Digging for gold
Digging for gold

Do you love me, baby, do you want me to hold
Do you care enough to give me your heart and soul

"Dixie Chicken"

"Dixie Chicken"


I seen the bright lights of Memphis
And the Commodore Hotel
And it was there beneath the streetlamp
Where I met a southern belle
Well she took me to the river
Where she cast her spell
And it was 'neath that Memphis moonlight
She sang this song so well
If you'll be my Dixie chicken
I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together
Down in Dixie land
Down in Dixie land
We hit all the hotspots
My money flowed like wine
Till the lowdown southern whiskey
Began to fog my mind
Well I don't remember church bells
Or the money I put down
On the white picket fence and boardwalk
At the house on the edge of town
Now but boy do I remember
The strain of her refrain
And the nights we spent together
And the way she called my name
If you'll be my Dixie chicken
I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together
Down in Dixie land
Down in Dixie land
It's been a year since she ran away
Guess that guitar player sure could play
She always liked to sing along
He was always handy with a song
Then one night in the lobby
Of the Commodore Hotel
I by chance met a bartender
Who said he knew her well
And as he handed me a drink
He began to hum a song
And all the boys there at the bar
Began to sing along
If you'll be my Dixie chicken
I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together
Down in Dixie land
Down in Dixie land
If you'll be my Dixie chicken
I'll be your Tennessee lamb
And we can walk together
Down in Dixie land
Down in Dixie land

"Do What You Gotta Do"

"Do What You Gotta Do"


Sometimes you've got to take the heat
If you're gonna walk down on the mean street
Take the heat and you see it through
'Cause sometimes it comes down to
Do what you gotta do

Sometimes it goes right down to the wire
And you might have to walk through the fire
Walk on, boy all the way through
Sometimes it just comes down to
Do what you gotta do

Well, there's people that'll tell you
It's just no use
And there's people that'll tell you
That you're gonna lose
People that'll tell you
Anything you're gonna listen to
Do what you gotta do

Someday they're going to call your name
They'll come looking for some one to blame
What's your name, boy
Hey, you just tell them true
'Cause they can't take the truth from you
So do what you gotta do

Well, they'll call you a hero or a traitor
But you'll find out that, sooner or later,
Nobody in this world is gonna do it for you
Do what you gotta do

There ain't nobody in this world
That's gonna do it for you
Do what you gotta do

"Don't Cross The River"

"Don't Cross The River"


There's a little girl
Out lying on her own
She's got a broken heart
She's not the kind
You take down for long
She knows and
Plays it smart
And if she's coming
She's shown no more
She's heard no whistle
Blowing from the door
She feels like leaving and
She don't know why
Without no bridges
She's trapped
So I sigh

[CHORUS:]
Don't cross the river
If you can't swim the tide
Don't try denying
Living on the other side
All your life you were
On your own

If you want
You can ride my train
Soon forget the reason
That you're leaving
Lose yourself and
Then sometimes
Maybe even save yourself
Some grieving

[Repeat chorus]

If you want
You can ride my train
Soon forget the reason
That you're leaving
Lose yourseld and
Then sometimes
Maybe even save yourself
Some grieving

"Driftin' Away"

"Driftin' Away"


With all of my heart, I know I could love you
But, with all of my soul, I'm driftin' away
With all of my mind, I know you could save me
From myself and anything else

With all of my strength, I wanna reach out for you
With every breath, I call out your name
With every step, I just wanna turn around and say
Baby make it okay

But I'm so afraid that you've forgiven
Me one too many times
And I'm so afraid to give my heart again
Just to have a change of mind

And I'm not quite sure that you can trust me
And I would hate to have you find me again
Baby, like the wind, driftin' away

It blows and nobody knows where it's going to
(I'm driftin' away)
It blows and nobody know what it's gonna do

With all of my heart
I know I disappointed you
And although I'm real sorry
I don't know how to save this time

But, if I would lose you
I know I would go completely
Out of my mind
I'm running out of time

And I'm so afraid that you've forgiven
One too many times
And I'm so afraid to give my heart again
Just to have a change of mind

And I'm not quite sure that you can trust me
And I would hate to have you find me again
Baby, like the wind, driftin' away

It blow and nobody knows where it's going to
(Driftin' away)
It blows and nobody knows what it's gonna do
(You see my heart at night)

At night you can hear it cry
As the tear drops fall from heaven's eyes
(Fallin' down)
And somehow you know it's true
These tears that fall, they're fallin' for you
(Fallin' for you)

It blows and nobody knows where's it going to
(Fallin' down)
It blows and nobody knows what it's gonna do

At night you can hear it cry
As the tear drops fall from heaven's eyes
And somehow you know it's true
These tears that fall, they're fallin' for you
(Fallin' for you)

It blows and nobody knows where's it going to
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
It blows and nobody knows what it's gonna do

Oh, at night, at night
At night you can hear it cry
As the tear drops fall from heaven's eyes
And somehow you know it's true
These tears that fall

"Every Now And Then"

"Every Now And Then"


I walked down to the park last night
Warm breeze stirring up a soft moonlight
And my mind started drifting to way back when
Yes I do think about you every now and then
The other day I saw a car like you used to drive
I got a funny feeling down deep inside
And for the briefest moment I felt a smile begin
Yes I do think about you every now and then
I love my life and I'd never trade
Between what you and me had and the life I've made
She's here and she's real, but you were too
And every once in a while I think about you
I heard a song on the radio just yesterday
The same one you always asked me to play
And when the song was over
I wished they'd played it again
Yes I do think about you every now and then
I love my life and I'd never trade
Between what you and me had and the life I've made
She's here and she's real, but you were too
And every once in a while I think about you
I've been layin' here all night listenin' to the rain
Talkin' to my heart and tryin' to explain
Why sometimes I catch myself
Wondering what might have been
Yes I do think about you every now and then
Every now and then
Every now and then

"Everytime That It Rains"

"Everytime That It Rains"


Stuck in an airport in Austin, all of the flights are delayed
And as the rain keeps fllin' the mem'ries keep callin' me back
To another time and place
Back to a rainy dy in Oklahoma, she was workin' at this roadside cafe
And it was just her and me and looked like it would be
At least 'till the storm rolled away

I played "Please Come to Boston" on the jukebox
She said hey that's my favorite song
The next thing I knew the song was through
And we were still dancin' along
And with that look in her eyes she pulled from me
Then she pulled off that apron she wore
And with her hand in mine we turned off the sign
And locked the rain outside the door

Every time that it rains I can hear her heart callin'
It rains, I can see that dress fallin'
The storm clouds roll on, still the memory remains
Every time that it rains

One late rainy night I got a phone call
So I went back to see her again
And through the dnce we both stumbled and with the buttons we fumbled
So we decided just to call it at friends
If we ever had a thing now it's over and only the memory remains
Of a roadside cafe on a September day
I relive every time that it rains

Every time that it rains I can hear her heart callin'
It rains, I can see that dress fallin'
The storm clouds roll on, still the memory remains
Every time that it rains

"Face To Face"

"Face To Face"


There was a bad boy in the school yard
Waited on you every day
Seemed like every time you turned around
Well he was standin' in your way
Well he broke your glasses
The girls all laughed
As he pushed you to the floor
But then you stood up one day knowin'
You couldn't stand it anymore
And your gentle hand was finally clenched in rage
You were face to face
Face to face with the devil that you've been dreadin'
Eye to eye finally has arrived
But bad as it was, well now brother wasn't it better
Dealin' with him face to face
Your date showed up with flowers
And you thought your dreams had come
But with every passing hour
You felt it come undone
Then the night exploded and you begged him no
But he forever changed your life
And now he waits a judge and jury
Thinkin' you'll break down inside
And with a finger you can put his fists away
And you're face to face
Face to face with the devil that you've been dreadin'
Eye to eye finally has arrived
But bad as it was, well little sister wasn't it better
Dealin' with him face to face
'Cause it'll never go away
Until the fear that you are runnin' from is finally embraced
Drivin' by the grave yard
On a wicked winter's eve
And you're wonderin' why a man of faith
Is whistlin' nervously
Then you stop the car
And you hold your heart
'Cause you finally realize
Hell, the devil ain't in the darkness
He's a'rattlin' 'round inside
And with folded hands you truly start to pray
And you're face to face
Face to face with the devil that you've been dreadin'
Eye to eye finally has arrived
But bad as it was, well now brother wasn't it better
Dealin' with him face to face
'Cause it'll never go away
Until the fear that you are runnin' from is finally embraced
Face to face
