"Our Paths May Never Cross"

"Our Paths May Never Cross"


Lady I know your out there somewhere
Like me your feeling lost
Maybe right now we both need each other
But our paths may never cross

People like us never find each other
Love is our greatest loss
Baby I know you are out there some where
But our paths may never cross

We're two people that should be together
'Cause we're lonely at the very same time
But there's a million too many good reasons
Why your love can never be mine

Maybe this song was written for you
Listen, don't turn it off
I wish you could learn it and come sing it with me
But our paths may never cross

I wish you could learn it and come sing it with me
But our paths may never cross

"Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind"

"Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind"


I've Always Heard People Say It
But I Guess I Never Fully Understood
I Thought That They Meant, You'd Be Easy To Forget
But It's Drivin Me Crazy

[Chorus:]
Out Of Sight Out Of Mind
You Opened My Eyes, And Now I Can See
What You Mean To Me, I Was So Blind
Out Of Sight Out Of Mind

You Know It Hurt When You Left Me
But I Thought Life Would Go On Without You
That Was Easier Said, Can't Get You Outta My Head
I Don't Know If I'll Make It

[Repeat Chorus]

I Was So Blind
Out Of Sight Out Of Mind

"Overnight Male"

"Overnight Male"


Let me be your mailman and I'll always come through.
There's no denyin', come rain or shine, I'll deliver my love to you.
I do things by the letter, you can put your stamp on me
'Cause there ain't nobody better for a special delivery.

[Chorus:]
Like a pony express in the wild, wild west, I'll ride hard all night long.
And I can saddle up fast, get you there first class long before the dawn.
You know your mail's gonna get to you come snow, rain, sleet or hail
'Cause I'm a top flight, hold-you-tight,
Get-you-there-by-daylight, do-you-right overnight male.

I know your heart is fragile, so I'll handle it with care.
There ain't no doubt, I know love's route, so baby let me take you there.
I'll bring you cards and flowers, but I know just what you need.
Just give me 24-hours satisfaction guarantee.

[Chorus]

Yeah I'm a top flight, hold you tight,
Get you there by daylight, do you right overnight male.

"Overnight Success"

"Overnight Success"


If it was in your mind to really cut me down.
If it was in your plan to walk me in the ground.
You left with him last night and daylight told the rest.
And if you planned on hurtin' me, you're an overnight success.

I couldn't blame someone who'd steal your love away,
Because I know what I've lost and all he's gained.
Sweetheart last night I know he got the very best.
And if you planned on hurtin' me, you're an overnight success.

Can you handle all you've won from breakin' my pride?
Will he stay with you and help you spend all the tears I've cried?
Sweetheart I love you so and wish you happiness.
And if you planned on hurtin' me, you're an overnight success.

"Peace Of Mind"

"Peace Of Mind"


I go anywhere that ol' wind blows
Down a blactop road...anytime
No strings attached, no ties to tie me down
So why hang around, when I can fly

[Chorus:]
I'm free, free to do as I please
Free to choose, free to be
Just plain me, just plain fine
I'm here then I'm there
Not a care in the world
What a cure for the soul...peace of mind

I go anywhere that ol' wind blows
Down a blacktop road ...anytime
No strings attached, no ties to tie me down
So why hang around, when I can fly

I don't dare slow down for anything
What tomorrow brings suits me fine
And I don't dare look back on yesterday
It's a throw away better left behind

[Chorus]

I go anywhere that ol' wind blows
Down a blacktop road...anytime
No strings attached, no ties to tie me down
So why hang around, when I can fly

So why hang around, when I can fly

"Poison"

"Poison"


My first sip made me gag
And I thought I was gonna blow beets
But I took another and pretty soon brother
Sour mash started tasting sweet
Made me feel brave and strong
Bulletproof, like I could do no wrong
But I found out before too long
What I should've known

You can learn to love anything
Even a bird in a cage will sing a song
Even it's wrong
Even if it kills you in the end
You can learn to love anything
Trade your heart and soul for a ball and chain
Anything can bring you pleasure, even pain
Pick your poison
Poison
Pick your poison

Ruby lips hid a razor tongue
And a heart, blue as glacier ice
I was warned, but I was willing
To ignore everybody's advice
The more I gave, the more she took
She walked away without a second look
Just one more page from that great big book
On how

You can learn to love anything
Even a bird in a cage will sing a song
Even if it's wrong
Even if it kills you in the end
You can learn to love anything
Trade your heart and soul for a ball and chain
Anything can bring you pleasure, even pain
You can learn to love anything
A prison wall, a ball and chain
Anything can bring you pleasure, even pain
Pick your poison
Poison
(You can learn)
Pick your poison

Pick your poison
(You can learn)
Pick your poison
Poison
Poison
Pick your poison
Pick your poison

"Ready For The End Of The World"

"Ready For The End Of The World"


I know the end is near...
I've seen the warning signs.
Been preparin' myself,
Layin' in supplies.
I bought a case of Jack,
A boxed-set of Merle...
I'm gettin' ready,
Ready for the end of the world.

I'm gettin' ready for the end to come...
That final hour it all comes undone.
An' she drops the bomb...
An' says he ain't my girl.
I'm gettin' ready,
Ready for the end of the world.

[Instrumental break]

My neon shelter waits,
Where I can go to hide.
While the memories burn,
I'll be safe inside.
With the honky-tonk few,
Bracin' for the worst...
I'm gettin' ready,
Ready for the end of the world.

I'm gettin' ready for the end to come...
That final hour it all comes undone.
An' she drops the bomb...
An' says he ain't my girl.
I'm gettin' ready,
Ready for the end of the world.

Yeah, I'll be ready...
Ready for the end of the world.

"Remember The Alamo"

"Remember The Alamo"


Girl you were always my yellow rose
And I was your one lone star
We always said
Together till death do us part

We had a love bigger than Texas
Where is that feeling now
It's taken some hits and losses but it's fighting on
And standing somehow

Remember the man who asked for your hand
In the moonlight of San Antone
There by the mission you let your position be known
That you loves me so
Don't forget where it started
Remember the Alamo

I think we can hold on and make it together
If we remember when
And get back to love
The way that it was back then

When we were hopeless romantics needing each other
Willing to take a chance
We strolled and we talked down the ol' river walk
To the heart of where it began

Remember the man who asked for your hand
In the moonlight of San Antone
There by the mission you let your position be known
That you loves me so
Don't forget where it started
Remember the Alamo

"Rhythm Of The Road"

"Rhythm Of The Road"


I'd rather be home,
But I make my livin' on the go
Big silver eagle spreads her wings
And drops us at another show
I think about holdin' my baby tonight
As I listin to the big wheels roll
Three days into a six week tour,
Gettin' in the rhythm of the road

We pick and sing,
Say ""goodnight"" then we'll be flyin'
My world's a chain of one-night-stands
Strung together by the center line
I don't know where I'll wake up tomorrow,
But I can't let the tempo slow
Every town is just another beat,
Livin' in the rhythm of the road

The rhythm of the road's got a mind of its own
If you find it it'll drive you insane
Like the clackity-clack of a railroad track
I'm rattlin' like an old freight train
Towns are flashin' by, the folks are wavin' ""hi""
They all start to look the same
Gotta stop for a minute, be glad I'm in it
Remember just why I came

Those highway signs, Lord, they keep me on the move
I think about givin' it up sometimes,
And gettin' in a diff'ren groove
But I just let the days slide by,
Get goin' with the flow
A four/four beat's the only time I keep,
Livin' in the rhythm of the road
A four/four beat's the only time I keep,
Livin' in the rhythm of the road

Livin' in the rhythm of the road

"Right Or Wrong"

"Right Or Wrong"


Right or wrong, I'll always love you.
Oh you're gone, I can't forget.
Right or wrong, I'll keep on dreaming.
Still I wake with that same ol' regret.
All along I knew I'd lose you,
Though I prayed that you'd be true.
In your heart please just remember
Right or wrong, I'm still in love with you.

Right or wrong, I'll always love you.
Oh you're gone, I can't forget.
Right or wrong, I'll keep on dreaming.
Still I wake with that same ol' regret.
All along I knew I'd lose you,
Though I prayed that you'd be true.
In your heart please just remember
Right or wrong, I'm still in love with you.
