"A Nickel For The Fiddler"
"A Nickel For The Fiddler"
Well, it's a nickel for the fiddler, it's a nickel for his tune
It's a nickel for the tambourine kind of afternoon
And it's a high holiday on the 21st of June
And it's country music in the park and everybody's ruined
Well, it's fountains full of dogs and kids, and it's freaky apple pie
And it's the ones that's come to play and the ones just passin' by
And it's coats of many colors and it almost makes me cry
Lord, it's ice cream on a stick and it's somethin' you can't buy
Well, it's a fiddler from Kentucky who swears he's 83
And he's fiddled every contest from here to Cripple Creek
And it's old ones and it's young ones and it's plain they have agreed
That it's country music in the park as far as they can see
Well, it's a nickel for the fiddler, it's a nickel for his tune
It's a nickel for the tambourine kind of afternoon
And it's a high holiday on the 21st of June
And it's country music in the park and everybody's ruined

"Ain't No Trouble To Me"
"Ain't No Trouble To Me"
Baby don't let 'em blow smoke up your dress
Don't let 'em break your heart
Don't start thinkin' that life's a mess
You've done just fine so far
When the ways of the world start getting you down
And you're all out of repartee
If your smile turns to a frown
It ain't no trouble to me
Trouble be gone, trouble be damned
Love be trouble free
Come on home any old time
It ain't no trouble to me, ain't no trouble to me
I got a shoulder with your name on it
If a tear come to your eye
I got ears to hear anything you fear
And a tongue will not lie
Yeah, I'm gonna love you till the day I die
That's a guarantee
Tomorrow be another day
It ain't no trouble to me
Trouble be gone, trouble be damned
Love be trouble free
Come on home any old time
It ain't no trouble to me, ain't no trouble to me
I said, “Trouble be gone, trouble be damned
Love be trouble free
Come on home any old time
It ain't no trouble to me, ain't no trouble to me”

"All She Wants Is You"
"All She Wants Is You"
He's sneaky like Tennessee whiskey
He always takes me by surprise
He feels safe, he feels risky
He's got the devil in his angel eyes
There's nothing I can't tell him
There's nothing he ain't heard
When he don't say nothing
Man I hang on every word
He's got nothing to prove
He's got nothing to lose
He's got everything on a string
Still all he wants is you
Everybody's got some baggage
But he knows how to travel light
He don't judge anyone
He knows wrong from right
He don't need your permission
He don't need no direction
He'll steal your soul in a heartbeat
Yet he ain't guilty of nothing
He's got nothing to prove
He's got nothing to lose
He's got everything on a string
Still all he wants is you
He's got nothing to prove
He's got nothing to lose
He's got everything on a string
Still all he wants is you

"All Through Throwing Good Love After Bad"
"All Through Throwing Good Love After Bad"
Oh a time there was I was feelin' so hopeless
It's a wonder I didn't cave in
I kept throwing love at all the wrong people
Never to see it again.
[Chorus]
Oh Lord won't you look what I've found
Starin' me right in the face
I'm through bein lonely I'm through bein sad
I'm all through throwin' good love after bad.
When I think of all the time I have wasted
Wearin' my hear on my sleeve
Entrusting my love to the kindness of strangers
Oh I was so naive
[Chorus]

"Analog Girl"
"Analog Girl"
Well she ain't got no cell phone
You got to call her when she's home
All of her clocks have got hands
Now don't try to e-mail her,
you've got to snail mail her
You got to take pen in hand
Ones and zeros, zeros and ones
She'll have none of that virtual fun
She's a real deal ol' fashioned analog girl
In a digital world
Now she gets online out in the backyard
Hangin' up her ol' blue jeans
She's got all of the memory she can live with
She really hates drum machines
Ones and zeros, zeros and ones
She'll have none of that virtual fun
She's a real deal ol' fashioned analog girl
In a digital world
Out in the garden she's got a website
It sparkles in the mornin' dew
Got a mouse in her pocket,
she's got spam in a can
What's an analog girl to do
Ones and zeros, zeros and ones
She'll have none of that virtual fun
She's a real deal ol' fashioned analog girl

"Anyhow, I Love You"
"Anyhow, I Love You"
I wish I had a dime for every bad time
But the bad times always seem to keep the change
You been all alone so you know what I'm sayin'
So when all you can recall is the pain
Just you wait until tomorrow when you wake up with me
at your side and find I haven't lied about nothin'
I wouldn't trade a tree for the way I feel about you
in the mornin', anyhow I love you
Everyday it gets just a little bit better
And half the gettin' there is knowin' where I been before
I'm sure you understand 'cause I ain't your first man
So when you feel like runnin' for the back door...don't
Just you wait until tomorrow when you wake up with me
at your side and find I haven't lied about nothin'
I wouldn't trade a tree for the way I feel about you
in the mornin', anyhow I love you

"Arizona Star"
"Arizona Star"
'Twas in the town of Nashville in the year of '75
This Arizona star she just fell out of the sky
She was shinin' like a diamond, she had tombstones in her eyes
She liked drinkin', she liked smokin', she liked dancin' in the aisle
She was a pre-Madonna primadonna, part time southern belle
Man she shoulda been an actress, oh she played the part so well
She might've been a singer, but you really couldn't tell
She was the Arizona star and she was born to give 'em hell
When you're cool, the sun shines all the time
So she always kept her shades on to keep from going blind
She was cool, she was out there so far
She was nothin' less and nothin' more than the Arizona star
She had a girlfriend named George, and George carried a sword
And wore purple tights and they hung out every night
Oh I'm talkin' 'bout a circus man, I'm talkin' 'bout three rings
And there was four or five clowns in a washing machine
But she never met a stranger as far as I could tell
She was the Arizona star and Jim McGuire he knew her well
She made real an oxymoron, she made mirrors, she made smoke
She had a curve ball that wouldn't quit, and a girlfriend for a joke.

"Baby Took A Limo To Memphis"
"Baby Took A Limo To Memphis"
She did not want to drive
She did not want to fly
She did not want to wait
For a bus to come by
She did not want to hassle
She did not want to hurry
She didn't want to know
What is cost, don't worry
Baby took a limo to Memphis
Seemed like the thing to do
Baby took a limo to Memphis
She did it 'cause she wanted to
She was not lookin' back
She was lookin' good
She was not in the mood
To be knockin' on wood
She knows what she wants
She knows how to get it
She knows what it takes
Just do it, don't regret it
The shortest distance between two towns
Is ridin' in a limo with the windows down
Don't ask why she's going
She might let you know
Don't ask when she's coming back
'cause she don't know
Don't let her fool you
She's nobody's fool
She knows what's tacky
She knows what's cool

"Bag Of Bones"
"Bag Of Bones"
He said his hip talks to him when it's ready to rain
He's had a little nip and he's feelin' no pain
When he gets like this he feels like talkin'
He said he took some shrapnel at the Bay of Pigs
He lost two fingers on a gulf oil rig
Oh, you gotta watch him he'll take off walkin'
Some folks say he's lost his mind, but he's just runnin' out of time
He said this ol' Bag of Bones ain't really me
There's a lot more standin' here than what you see
He said my back is bendin' low but my spirit's flyin' free
This ol' Bag of Bones ain't really me
He said I live each day like its my last
Time won't keep it goes so fast
You better do the best you can do
He said life's a tune you whistle in the dark
When you get it right you get a little spark
And the sun comes up and it all dawns on you
He said this ol' Bag of Bones ain't really me
There's a lot more standin' here than what you see
He said my back is bendin' low but my spirit's flyin' free
This ol' Bag of Bones ain't really me
My back is bendin' low but my spirit's flyin' free
Well this ol' Bag of Bones ain't really me
Ah, this ol' Bag of Bones ain't really me
