"It Sure Is Monday"

"It Sure Is Monday"


With the alarm clock ting-a-ling ringin' in my head
I woke up dog tired, beat down, half dead
Tryin' to recover from another wild weekend
Chuggin' down coffee while I should have been sleepin'

Well it sure is Monday idn't it now
I gotta myself through the week somehow
I had a ball Friday, Saturday and Sunday
But it's all over now and it sure is Monday

Oh, I got to the job site at a quarter past nine
And somehow I stayed awake till lunch time
And then I caught a little nap, stretched out in my truck bed
My feet still twitchin' to the music in my head

Well it sure is Monday, ain't it the truth
I partied too hardy, now I'm payin' my dues
I had a ball Friday, Saturday and Sunday
But it's all over now and it sure is Monday

Well it sure is Monday, ain't it a sin
I gotta work my way through the week again
I had a ball Friday, Saturday and Sunday
But it's all over now and it sure is Monday
Yeah, it's all over now and it sure is Monday.

"It Wouldn't Hurt To Have Wings"

"It Wouldn't Hurt To Have Wings"


Don't get me wrong, I'm doing all right
Can't you see I'm OK
I'm not at home all alone every night
I'm out here dancing old memories away
But it wouldn't hurt to have wings
To lift me above all the pain of the past
And your mind-wrecking love
They say time can fly like a magical thing
But it sure wouldn't hurt to have wings
I don't see things like love any more
The rose-colored glasses are gone
I won't be fooled like I was before
I'm learning now how to fly on my own
But it wouldn't hurt to have wings
To lift me above all the pain of the past
And your mind-wrecking love
They say time can fly like a magical thing
But it sure wouldn't hurt to have wings
I'm gonna fly like an eagle
And rise above it all
But it wouldn't hurt to have wings
To lift me above all the pain of the past
And your mind-wrecking love
They say time can fly like a magical thing
But it sure wouldn't hurt to have wings
No, it sure wouldn't hurt to have wings

"It's Almost Like You're Here"

"It's Almost Like You're Here"


At night the wind blows in the rain
Against the window pane
I hear you call my name.
Your voice whispers in my ear
The words are still so dear
It's almost like you're here.
I can almost feel your breathing
I can almost touch your face
You didn't know that you'd be leaving
Memories time cannot erase.
At night with feelings running deep
As I fall asleep
It's almost like you're here.
In silence as I sit and stare
I see you sitting there
Brushing down your hair.
And even through a blur of tears
The vision is so clear
It's almost like you're here.
I can almost feel your breathing
I can almost touch your face
You didn't know that you'd be leaving
Memories time cannot erase.
At night the wind blows in the rain
Against the window pane
It's almost like you're here.
It's almost like you're here...

"It's Not Over (If I'm Not Over You)"

"It's Not Over (If I'm Not Over You)"


You can tell everyone love is over and done
You can pack all your things and go
You can lie to yourself and say there's nothing left
But there's one thing I'd like you to know.

That it's never really over
Even though you say we're through
You may be over me but can't you see
It's not over if I'm not over you.

There's not much I can do if it's over for you
I'll just wish you the best when you leave
But you play such a part in my life and in my heart
You'll always be a part of me.

That it's never really over
Even though you say we're through
You may be over me but can't you see
It's not over if I'm not over you.

You may be over me but can't you see
It's not over if I'm not over you...

"Jolie"

"Jolie"


Well, I left Louisiana
Lookin' for some higher ground
Trying to make my crazy dream come true
But six months in Atlanta
Done tuned my heart around
Tell me you still want me too
Let me come back home to you.
Please Jolie
Put me under your spell again
Won't you make me feel well again
Take me out of this Hell I'm in.
Oh please, Jolie
This time I'm gonna treat you right
All I want to do is hold you tight
Believe me, I've seen the light, Jolie.
That day I left you cryin'
On the shores of Ponchatrain
I left the only dream I'll ever need
Well Baby, I ain't lying
I can't put out this flame
Gonna get down on my knees
Meet me down in New Orleans.
Please Jolie
Put me under your spell again
Won't you make me feel well again
Take me out of this hell I'm in
Oh please, Jolie
This time I'm gonna treat you right
All I want to do is hold you tight
Believe me, I've seen the light, Jolie.
Please Jolie
Put me under your spell again
Won't you make me feel well again
Take me out of this hell I'm in
Oh please, Jolie
This time I'm gonna treat you right
All I want to do is hold you tight
Believe me, I've seen the light, Jolie.
(Please Jolie)
Tell your momma tell your daddy too
Tell 'em that I'm comin' home for you
Gotta ring for your pretty little hand
Gonna be your ever lovin' man
Tell your momma tell your daddy too
Tell 'em that I'm comin' home for you
Gotta ring for your pretty little hand
Gonna be your ever lovin' man...

"Just Right For You"

"Just Right For You"


In my mind I'm thinner and I'm taller
Younger too with a little more hair
I saw myself going so much farther

Oh but girl there you are
Smiling at the plain old me
Those honest eyes
In love with what they see
And I go from perfect to just right for you

In my mind I'm rugged and I'm charming
The hero who might save the day
Kinda' like a modern Gary Cooper

Oh but girl there you are
Smiling at the plain old me
Those honest eyes
In love with what they see
And I go from perfect to just right for you

Oh but girl there you are
Smiling at the plain old me
Those honest eyes
In love with what they see
And I go from perfect to just right for you

"Let It Rain"

"Let It Rain"


Storm clouds rising flash of lightning rattles that ole porch swing
Window open curtains dancing just you and me
As the thunder rolls on we'll just hold on neath the light of this candle flame.
Oh this is perfect what a night let it rain

Let your love pour down down all around let it
Fill my heart let it flood this house
Let the world outside just wash on by we'll just lay right here and hold on tight
Let it rain
Let it rain

Old man weather had it together when he planned this night
From out of the blue he set the mood turned down the lights
Just when we thought the storm was over here it comes again
So lay back down in these arms let it rain

Let your love pour down down all around let it
Fill my heart let it flood this house
Let the world outside just wash on by we'll just lay right here and hold on tight
Let it rain
Let it rain

"Let's Talk About Our Love"

"Let's Talk About Our Love"


Well, I don't wanna hear no more
About how he broke your heart
Relivin' your ol' memories is tearin' me apart
I'd just soon forget about the past
'Cause that's the one thing we can't change
Let's stop this useless conversation
That's just lovin' time we're wastin'
Losin' any more would be a shame.
Let's talk about you and me, let's talk about forever
How it's gonna be and how there'll never
Come a day when we give up on us
Let's talk about the way we feel
Whenever we're together
And how we never get enough
Let's talk about the good stuff
Let's talk about our love.
Now, we've been over everything he's ever done to you
It's time you figured out that we've got better things to do
I don't mean to sound like I don't care
Girl you know you're the one I love
You can tell me anything you want to
And everything you've ever been through
But when it comes to him I've heard enough.
Let's talk about you and me, let's talk about forever
How it's gonna be and how there'll never
Come a day when we give up on us
Let's talk about the way we feel
Whenever we're together
And how we never get enough
Let's talk about the good stuff
Let's talk about our love.
Let's talk about the way we feel
Whenever we're together
And how we never get enough
Let's talk about the good stuff
Let's talk about our love.
Let's talk about the good stuff
Let's talk about our love...

"Live A Little"

"Live A Little"


You've got to give a little take a little
Sit a spell learn to whittle
Live a little now and then
Unwind take your time leave your cares all behind
And see what's around the bend
This life ain't coming 'round again
So give a little take a little
Live a little now and then

In a hurry late for work
Rush and worry but what's it worth
You might earn a rich man's pay
But it won't buy you one more day

You've got to give a little take a little
Sit a spell learn to whittle
Live a little now and then
Unwind take your time leave your cares all behind
And see what's around the bend
This life ain't coming 'round again
So give a little take a little
Live a little now and then

Busy making your weight in gold
But you can't take it when you go
Don't care how high you build your stack
They don't make a hearse with a luggage rack

You've got to give a little take a little
Sit a spell learn to whittle
Live a little now and then
Unwind take your time leave your cares all behind
And see what's around the bend
This life ain't coming 'round again
So give a little take a little
Live a little now and then

This life ain't coming 'round again
So lean back chew the fat
Take a day just to piddle
Live a little now and then

"Lonely Ain't The Only Game In Town"

"Lonely Ain't The Only Game In Town"


She just found out that
Lonely ain't the only game in town
There's more to life than empty nights
Just hanging around the house
She's been sitting on the sidelines
But that's all over now
She just found out that
Lonely ain't the only game in town
He's been working late for three nights straight
But every time he calls
She hears what sounds like Georgia Hagger
Echo through the phone
If he thinks he can play her for a fool
That's where he's wrong
Well, that fools gonna be playing along
She just found out that
Lonely ain't the only game in town
There's more to life than empty nights
Just hanging around the house
She's been sitting on the sidelines
But that's all over now
She just found out that
Lonely ain't the only game in town
The odds are good
She's gone and looked
Like a million bucks tonight
She'll be all made up
Making up for all those empty nights
The last thing on her mind
Is what tomorrow's gonna bring
Cause those neon lights
Can shine a brand new light no things
She just found out, she just found out that
Lonely ain't the only game in town
There's more to life than empty nights
Just hanging around the house
She's been sitting on the sidelines
But that's all over now
She just found out that
Lonely ain't the only game in town
She just found out that
Lonely ain't the only game in town
