"Spitfire"

"Spitfire"



If I were to untie my tongue
I could use it like a whip and watch you run
I could show you how it's done
We could have a little fun
Better bring your big guns

'Cause I only got one burning desire
To let the whole town know that you're a dirty little liar
I ain't gonna get stuck in your muck and mire
Oh, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
You make me wanna spit fire
Spitfire, spitfire, spitfire, spitfire, spitfire, spitfire
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

I suggest you think again but that would be insane
For that you'd have to have a brain
A simple southern way to say "kiss my behind"
Politely tear you apart with
"Sweetie bless your heart"

'Cause I only got one burning desire
To let the whole town know that you're a dirty little liar
I ain't gonna get stuck in your muck and mire
Oh, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
You make me wanna spit fire,
Spitfire, spitfire, spitfire, spitfire, spitfire, spitfire
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Spitfire, spitfire, spitfire, spitfire, spitfire, spitfire
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah

Reckon it's 'bout time that I bury you
Better buy some friends that will carry you
Oh to know you is to loathe you
You can fight and fuss but I'm fixing to Spitfire

'Cause I only got one burning desire
To let the whole town know that you're a dirty little liar
I ain’t gonna get stuck in your muck and mire
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
You make me wanna spit fire...

"Strong"

"Strong"


The light of my life's been stolen
I've walked in every shade of black and I never thought I would get me back
It's funny how life can change you and make you who you are today
I wonder if God set it up that way for me to be

[Chorus]
Strong even when it hurts
The heat it's gonna burn gotta let it burn
Strong, strong
To make a big mistake now I've run away

There's nothing like this feeling to be free and unafraid
And who ever thought I could be this brave
Learning every day

[Chorus]
Strong even when it hurts
The heat it's gonna burn gotta let it burn
Strong, strong
To make a big mistake now I've run away

I wanna push away the boundaries
I wanna love outside the lines
I wanna stare at the sun I don't care if I go blind
Whatever comes, whatever breaks, I'll stand up straight

[Repeat Chorus]

"Suddenly"

"Suddenly"


It's Independence Day I'm free
And it's a strange place to be
I'm gonna break these chains
Unleash the changes in me

I see an endless road
I feel the restless wind
I've lost the fear inside
Cause I've got no choice
But to live or die

Suddenly you're in this fight
alone
Steppin' out into the great
unknown
And the night's the hardest
time
When the doubts run through
your mind
Cause suddenly you find your
self alone
Suddenly you find yourself

In an empty room
With a suitcase on the floor
It'll be daylight soon
I'm gonna wage my private
war

Who's watchin' over me
Must be a guardian angel
I just need time to breathe
And give my life
The best of me

[Chorus]

Suddenly you're in this fight
Steppin' out and then

[Chorus]

Suddenly you're in this fight
alone
Steppin' out into the great
unknown
And the night's the hardest
time
When the doubts run through
your mind
Cause suddenly you find your
self alone
Suddenly you find yourself

"Surrender"

"Surrender"


There is a white flag rising,
About to catch the wind
And I don't wanna fight it,
Or let you win
Here I stand,
Heart in hand
No it ain't like me,
Don't take it lightly
You know I never Bend
[CHORUS]
Surrender
I'm giving in, givin' up
Surrender
Crossing over the line for your love
If I trust enough,
Then I might just
Fall in to forever
And all I’ve got to do Is Surrender
I see a white dove flyin,
The clouds have rolled on past
And isn’t it surprising,
I feel the peace at last
Got all I need,
Surroundin' me
I'm not afraid to stand up and say,
I will never leave
[CHORUS]
Surrender
I'm giving in, givin' up
Surrender
Crossing over the line for your love
If I trust enough,
Then I might just
Fall in to forever
And all I’ve got to do is surrender
[CHORUS]
If I trust enough,
Then I might just
Fall into forever
And all I’ve got to do,
All I’ve got to do
Baby, All I’ve got to do,
Is Surrender
Oh Surrender

"Swingin'"

"Swingin'"
(originally by John Anderson)



There's a little boy, in our neighborhood.
His name is Charlie Jackson, and he's really lookin' good.
I had to go and see him, so I called him on the phone.
I walked over to his house, and this was goin' on.

His brother was on the sofa, eatin' chocolate pie.
His Momma was in the kitchen, cuttin' chicken up to fry.
His Daddy was in the backyard, rollin' up a garden hose.
I was on the porch with Charlie, feelin' love down to my toes.
and we were swingin' (swingin')
yes we were swingin' (swingin')

Little Charlie he's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on his front porch in this swing,
Just a swingin' (swingin')

Yeah, and we'll be swingin'. (swingin')
Yes, we'll be swingin'. (swingin')
Little Charlie he's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on his front porch in this swing,
Just a swingin' (swingin')

Now Charlieshe's a darlin', she's the apple of my eye.
When I'm on the swing with him, it makes me almost high.
And Charlie is my lover, and he has been since the spring.
I just can't believe it started on his front porch in this swing.
Just a swingin'. (swingin')
ah-just a swingin'. (swingin')

Little Charlie he's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on his front porch in this swing,
Just a swingin' (swingin')

I said Little Charlie he's as pretty as the angels when they sing.
I can't believe I'm out here on his front porch in this swing,
Just a swingin' (swingin') (swingin')

"Talk To Me"

"Talk To Me"



I can tell you've been crying on the inside
I can see right through your eyes, what you're trying to hide
You've got a real big wall covering up what you're feeling for me
Well, c'mon baby, work it on out and talk to me

Baby I'm here
Ready to hear
What you're not saying
I can hear your heartbeat pounding
So don't keep me waiting
C'mon and talk to me
C'mon and talk to me

I can tell you've been hurt before
But you're face to face with love knocking at your door
All you need is a little trust to set you free
Well, here I am, don't hold back, baby talk to me

Baby I'm here
Ready to hear
What you're not saying
I can hear your heartbeat pounding
So don't keep me waiting
C'mon and talk to me
C'mon and talk to me

I cried a tear
As I felt the pain
That you hold inside
But true love is strong enough to survive
C'mon and talk to me

Baby I'm here
Ready to hear
What you're not saying
I can hear your heartbeat pounding
So don't keep me waiting
C'mon and talk to me
C'mon and talk to me

"Ten Thousand Angels Cried"

"Ten Thousand Angels Cried"



Stillness filled the Heavens, on crucifixion day.
Some say it rained, I don't know if it's true.
Well, I can just imagine ten thousand angels cried
That would seem like rain to me and you.
The angels all stood ready to take Him from the tree
They waited for the words from His voice.
And when he asked the father why has thou forsaken me.
They watched the saviour die of his own choice.
I've never seen ten thousand angels cry
But I'm sure they did
As they stood by
And watched the saviour die.
God turned his head away
He couldn't bear the sight
It must have looked like rain
When ten thousand angels cried.
As the sun slipped away
The skies turned to grey
And when Jesus gave his all
That's when the tears began to fall
I've never seen ten thousand angels cry
But I'm sure they did
As they stood by
And watched the saviour die.
God turned his head away
He couldn't bear the sight
It must have looked like rain
When ten thousand angels cried.
It must have looked like rain
When ten thousand angels cried.

"That Spirit Of Christmas"
(feat. Aloe Blacc)

"That Spirit Of Christmas"
(feat. Aloe Blacc)



Christmas is the time of year
For being with the ones we love
Sharing so much joy and cheer
What a wonderful feeling
Watching the ones we love having so much fun

I was sitting by the fireside
Taking a walk through the snow
Listening to a children's choir
Singing songs about Jesus
The blessed way that He came to us

Why can't it remain all through the year
Each day the same
Oh, that's what I wanna hear
It's truly amazing
That spirit of Christmas

All the kinfolk gather round
The lovely Christmas tree
Hearts are glowing full of joy
Sense the gifts that we're giving
And the love that we're living

Why can't it remain
All through the year
Each day the same
Oh, that's what I wanna hear
It's truly amazing
That spirit of Christmas

Why can't it remain
All through the year
Each day the same
Oh, that's what I wanna hear
It's truly amazing
That spirit of Christmas

It's truly, truly, truly, truly, truly, truly amazing
That spirit of Christmas
It's truly amazing
That spirit of Christmas
Oh that spirit of Christmas
Oh that spirit of Christmas
That spirit of Christmas
Oh that spirit of Christmas
That spirit of Christmas
Spirit of Christmas
Spirit of Christmas
Spirit of Christmas
Spirit of Christmas
Spirit of Christmas
Spirit of Christmas
Spirit of Christmas
Spirit of Christmas
Oh Christmas
Yeah Christmas
Christmas (Christmas)
Christmas (Christmas)
Christmas (Christmas)
Christmas (Christmas)
Christmas (Christmas)
Christmas (Christmas)
Christmas (Christmas)
Christmas

"The Bottle Let Me Down"
(originally by Merle Haggard)

"The Bottle Let Me Down"
(originally by Merle Haggard)



Each night I leave the bar room when it's over
Not feeling any pain at closing time
But tonight your memory found me much too sober
Couldn't drink enough to keep you off my mind

I've always had a bottle I could turn to
And lately I've been turnin' every day
But the wine don't take effect the way it used to
And I'm hurtin' in old familiar ways

Tonight the bottle let me down
And let your memory come around
The one true friend I thought that I'd found
Tonight the bottle let me down

Tonight the bottle let me down
And let your memory come around
The one true friend I thought that I'd found
Tonight the bottle let me down

Tonight the bottle let me down

"The Christmas Song"

"The Christmas Song"



Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Front nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like eskimos

Everybody knows some turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is going spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times, many ways
Merry Christmas to you
