"'Til The Fires Burned Out"
"'Til The Fires Burned Out"
There's a home fire in your eyes that's burns me gently
There's a warmth that I've never known before
In your arms I hear a whisper of forever
This is all I ask and nothing more.
When the nights are turning cold
If the fire is burning low
Say that you won't go
'Til the fire's burned out
Don't let the fire burn out.
Baby, hold me now like there's no tomorrow
The fire's lit, the flame is burning true
I know that we could swim the sea of sorrow
As long as there's one spark to see us through.
So when the nights are turning cold
If the fire is burning low
Say that you won't go
'Til the fire's burned out
Don't let the fire burn out
Don't let the fire burn out.
So many empty nights, so many broken dreams
Too many lovers lost in the lonely crowd
So when the nights are turning cold
If the fire's burning low
Say that you won't go
Promise you won't go
Say that you won't go
'Til the fire's burned out
Don't let the fire burn out
Don't let the fire burn out
Don't let the fire burn out
Oh, let it burn.
Let it burn, let it burn
Don't let the fire burn out
Oh, let it burn
Don't let the fire burn out
Let it burn, let it burn
Don't let the fire burn out.

"A Lot Like Me"
"A Lot Like Me"
High up on a rocky ledge
Holdin' all she's got
It ain't much except
The shattered dream and broken heart
He used her up
Made her old before her time
She's gonna take that final step
And leave her pain behind
All the sins that men commit before their done
Her lover had one lying silver tongue
She won't speak his name, it's too much to bear
But I saw his face as he left her there
Wooh oh ohoh
Sure looked a lot like me (sure looked a lot like me)
Wooh ahahah wooh
Sure looked a lot like me
He was just a boy barely 17
Feelin' drunk and talkin' tough
But he wasn't really mean
Bumped into this sidewinder
Should have backed way
Gave him some lip
Turned out they were
The last words he would say
All the sins that men commit before their done
His killer backed into one smokin' silver gun
No one asked his name, nobody cared
But I saw his face as the blue smoke cleared
Wooh oh ohoh
Sure looked a lot like me (sure looked a lot like me)
Wooh ahahah wooh
Sure looked a lot like me
Devil came and said, Sinner finally you are mine
But pardon me Mr. Devil but I think I need more time,
I've got a lot of mendin' up in life to do
The Devil said, You should have thought of that,
Before I came for you
Take this rope and wind it once for every lie
Once for every thoughtless act
And twice for tears they cried
Walk 50 miles naked in the desert sun
Praying for the souls that you have ruined, one by one
No one knew his name, nobody cared
But I saw his face as he was hangin' there
Wooh oh ohoh
Sure looked a lot like me (sure looked a lot like me)
Wooh ahahah wooh
Sure looked a lot like me
Wooh oh ohoh
Sure looked a lot like me (sure looked a lot like me)

"A Number And A Name"
"A Number And A Name"
How many times have I read farewell lines
In the things that you never seemed to say?
How many times have I read those last lines
And wondered why it ended this way?
Words of goodbye and all those loving lines
I must have been blind.
And it seems to me a shame that the number and the name
Both have changed with the passing of time.
How you would write about the bright lights?
It's a wonder that I never realized
How you would write about the bright lights
And your words always clouded up my eyes?
Our race was run now another's just begun
I must have been blind.
It seems to me a shame that the number and the name
Both have changed with the passing of time.
When your letters stopped the tears that I fought
How they ran like the rivers to the seas
When your letters stopped the tears that I fought
How they came in the flood of memories.
Each sunny day you slip further away
I must have been blind.
It seems to me a shame
That the number and the name
Both have changed with the passing of time.

"All I Have To Do Is Dream"
(originally by The Everly Brothers)
When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream
When I feel blue in the night
And I want you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you
All I have to do, is dream
I can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Any time, night or day
Only trouble is
Gee wiz
I'm dreamin' my life away
I need you so that I could die
I love you so, and that is why
Whenever I want you
All I have to do is dream
Dream, dream, dream
I can make you mine
Taste your lips of wine
Any time, night or day
Only trouble is

"All Prayed Up"
"All Prayed Up"
I'm all prayed up, I'm ready to meet my saviour
Eternal life is waitin' in the by and by
I'm all prayed up, my faith will never waiver
Heaven's door's gonna swing wide open when I die.
I made my peace with Jesus a long, long time ago
Trust in Him and He would save my soul
I walk right there beside Him, He guides me on my way
And I know He hears me when I kneel and pray .
I'm all prayed up, I'm ready to meet my saviour
Eternal life is waitin' in the by and by
I'm all prayed up, my faith will never waiver
Heaven's door's gonna swing wide open when I die.
I aint' afraid of satan, his wicked ways of sin
He tempted me but he couldn't pull me in
When I've gone to live with Jesus and face my judgment day
Fulfill for me the promise that He made.
I'm all prayed up, I'm ready to meet my saviour
Eternal life is waitin' in the by and by
I'm all prayed up, my faith will never waiver

"Alligator Man"
"Alligator Man"
Mosquitoes buzzin' ‘round my head
Spanish moss for my bed
I very seldom see dry land
'Cause I'm an alligator man.
I hunt the 'gators all night long
I sell their hides and then I'm gone
I take the bill to Bayou Sam
Who loves that tall 'gator man.
Let’s go!
This bayou country is my home
The friendliest lake I've ever roamed
'Cause I'm the leader of the clan
Known as that tall 'gator man.
And when I bring those hides to town
All the people gather 'round
They just want to shake the hand
Of that tall 'gator man.
Some people search this world for fame
But hunting 'gators is my game
And by the scars upon my hand
So I'm an alligator man.
Let’s go!

"Amazing Grace"
"Amazing Grace"
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.
T'was Grace that taught...
My heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear...
The hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares...
We have already come.
T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...
And Grace will lead us home.
The Lord has promised good to me...
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be...
As long as life endures.
When we've been here a thousand years...
Bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
Then when we've first begun.
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,

"Amazing Love"
"Amazing Love"
Amazing love so rich and rare
Amazing love beyond compare
A life so full of blessings
And promises fulfilled
Be careful not to run and hide
From this amazing love
Once as a child I did not see
That all my deeds returned to me
But I have traveled miles
And made a few mistakes
I've learned about forgiveness
And found amazing love
Even though a mother guards her children
Still they stumble, fall and shed a tear
Lessons learned and healing hands upon them
Through the years, through the years
Was a time when I was so alone and...
Feeling that my life was incomplete
Oh my heavy heart was barely beating
Down so deep, down so deep
Amazing love now in my arms
Amazing love to call my own
A life so full of blessings
And promises fulfilled
Be careful not to run and hide
From this amazing love
Amazing love...

"An American Dream"
"An American Dream"
I beg your pardon, mama, what did you say?
My mind was drifting off on Martinique Bay.
It's not that I'm not interested, you see;
Augusta, Georgia is just no place to be.
I think Jamaican in the moonlight.
Sandy beaches, drinking rum every night.
We got no money, mama, but we can go;
We'll split the difference, go to Coconut Grove.
Keep on talking, mama, I can hear
Your voice, it tickles down inside of my ear.
I feel a tropical vacation this year,
Might be the answer to this hillbilly fear.
I think Jamaican in the moonlight.
Sandy beaches, drinking rum every night.
We got no money, mama, but we can go;
We'll split the difference, go to Coconut Grove.
Voila! An American Dream.
Well, we can travel girl, without any means.
When it's as easy as closing your eyes
And dream Jamaica is a big neon sign.
Just keep talking, mama, I like that sound.
It goes so easy with that rain falling down.
