"The Last Thing On My Mind"

"The Last Thing On My Mind"


I don't love him anymore just ask all my friends
I've told them and I tell them time & time again
I don't have no regrets no I'm not that kind
Honestly he's the last thing on my mind

When the day turns into dusk
And the shadows start to fall
And this empty bed's as big as Arkansas
And when I'm driftin' off to sleep
Something in my broken heart rewinds
He's the last thing
He's the last thing on my mind

Now, rushing through the day
I might seem improved
There isn't time to second guess my foolish moves
No I can only see
Once the lights go out
What it is I can live with and without

When the day turns into dusk
And the shadows start to fall
And this empty bed's as big as Arkansas
And when I'm driftin' off to sleep
Something in my broken heart rewinds
He's the last thing
He's the last thing on my mind

When the day turns into dusk
And the shadows start to fall
And this empty bed's as big as Arkansas
And when I'm driftin' off to sleep
Something in my broken heart rewinds
He's the last thing
He's the last thing on my mind

"The Night's Too Long"

"The Night's Too Long"


Sylvia was workin' as a waitress in Beaumont
She said I'm movin' away, I'm gonna get what I want
I'm tired of these small-town boys that don't move fast enough
I'm gonna find me one who wears a leather jacket and likes his livin' rough

So she saved her tips and overtime and bought an old rusty car
She sold most everything she had to make a brand new start
She said I won't be needing these silly dresses and nylon hose
'Cause when I get to where I'm goin' I'm gonna buy me all new clothes

The night's too long; It just drags on and on
And then there's never enough;
That's when the sun starts comin' up
Don't let go of her hand;
You just might be the right man
She loves the night; She loves the night
She doesn't want the night; don't want it to end
Don't want it to end.

She works in an office now and she guesses the pays all right
She can buy a few new things to wear and still go out at night
And as soon as she gets home from work she wants to be out with the crowd
Where she can dance and toss her hair back and laugh out loud

Well the music's playin' fast and they just met
He presses up against her and his shirt's all soaked with sweat
And with her back against the bar she can listen to the band
And she's holdin' a Corona and it's cold against her hand

The night's too long; It just drags on and on
And then there's never enough;
That's when the sun starts comin' up
Don't let go of her hand;
You just might be the right man
She loves the night; She loves the night
She doesn't want the night; don't want it to end
Don't want it to end.

"The Pain Of Loving You"

"The Pain Of Loving You"
(originally by Osborne Brothers)



Oh, the pain of loving you
Oh, the mis'ry I go through
Never knowing what to do
Oh, the pain of loving you.

You just can't stand to see me happy
Seems you hurt me all you can
Still I go on loving you
But I'll never understand.

Oh, the pain of loving you
Oh, the mis'ry I go through
Never knowing what to do
Oh, the pain of loving you.

To love and hate at the same time
The line between the two is fine
But two has bound me heart to soul
So strong that I can't let you go.

Oh, the pain of loving you
Oh, the mis'ry I go through
Never knowing what to do
Oh, the pain of loving you.

Oh, the pain of loving you...

"The Party Ain't Over Yet"

"The Party Ain't Over Yet"


There's a troubled wind a blowin' through my crazy life
I feel the chill begin, it's gonna be a long, long, long night
I hear the thunder roll but I don't fear the lightning strike
'Cause deep inside I know I'm gonna make it through alright

So let the walls come tumblin' down
Bring on the last sunset
I ain't moving to heartbreak town
The party ain't over yet
Yeah, let the devil do his worst
But don't take any bets
That life has finally quenched my thirst
The party ain't over yet
Not yet

Every drop of rain that ever fell into my life
Helps me ride this pain, they were a blessin'
In disguise
And I know in time this'll soon be yesterday
Nothin' I can't climb, I've got the will to find the way

So let the walls come tumblin' down
Bring on the last sunset
I ain't moving to heartbreak town
The party ain't over yet
Yeah, let the devil do his worst
But don't take any bets
That life has finally quenched my thirst
The party ain't over yet
Not yet

So when the morning comes
I'll do more than just survive
I'll walk into the sun and live until I die

So let the walls come tumblin' down
Bring on the last sunset
I ain't moving to heartbreak town
The party ain't over yet
Yeah, let the devil do his worst
But don't take any bets
That life has finally quenched my thirst
The party ain't over yet
Not yet

Hey, hey, the party ain't over yet
No, no, the party ain't over yet

"The Richest Fool Alive"

"The Richest Fool Alive"


There's just no way of goin' back to change what's come and gone
But if I could go back in time I'd undo what you've done
I wouldn't look into your eyes and go completely blonde
Or listen to your pretty words and leave my heart behind.

If heartache were treasures and pain could be sold
If dreams were made of silver promises of gold
Tear drops were diamonds measured in lies
I'd have a broken heart worth millions and be the richest fool alive.

Next time I listen to my friends take their advice to heart
And avoid all of this misery I could of ended from the start
But fools in love don't listen they don't know right from wrong
They see just what they wanna see and miss it when its gone

If heartache were treasures and pain could be sold
If dreams were made of silver promises of gold
Tear drops were diamonds measured in lies
I'd have a broken heart worth millions and be the richest fool alive.
I'd have a broken heart worth millions and be the richest fool alive.

"The Trouble With The Truth"

"The Trouble With The Truth"


Oh the trouble with the truth
Is it's always the same ol' thing
So hard to forget
So impossible for me to change
Everytime I try to fight it
I know I'll be left to blame
Oh the trouble with the truth
Is it's always the same ol' thing

And the trouble with the truth
Is it's just what I need to hear
Ringing so right deep down inside my ear
And it's everything I want
And it's everything I fear
Oh the trouble with the truth
Is it's just what I need to hear

It has ruined the taste of the sweetest lies
Burned through my best alibis
Every sin that I deny
Keeps hanging 'round my door
Oh the trouble with the truth
Is it always begs for more
That's the trouble trouble with the truth
That's the trouble trouble with the truth

And the trouble with the truth
Is it just won't let me rest
I run and hide but there's always another test
And I know that it won't let me be
'Till I've given it my best
The trouble with the truth
Is it just won't let me rest

That's the trouble trouble with the truth
That's the trouble trouble with the truth
That's the trouble trouble with the truth
That's the trouble trouble with the truth

"There Goes My Everything"
(originally by Jack Greene)

"There Goes My Everything"
(originally by Jack Greene)



There goes my only possession
There goes my everything

I hear footsteps slowly walking
As they gently walk across the lonely floor
And a voice that's softly saying
Darling, this will be goodbye forever more

There goes my reason for living
There goes the one of my dreams
There goes my only possession
There goes my everything

As my memory turns back the pages
I can see the happy years we had before
And the love that kept this old heart beating
Has been shattered by the closing of the door

Oh, there goes my reason for living
There goes the one of my dreams
There goes my only possession
There goes my everything
Yes, there goes my everything

"There Stands The Glass"
(originally by Webb Pierce)



There stands the glass
That will ease all my pain
That will settle my brain
It's my first one today

There stands the glass
That will hide all my tears
And that will drown all my fears
Brother, I'm on my way

I'm wondering where you are tonight
I'm wondering if you all right
I wonder if you think of me
In my misery

There stands the glass
I fill it up to the brim
Till my troubles grow dim
It's my first one today

I'm wondering where you are tonight
I'm wondering if you all right
I wonder if you think of me
In my misery

There stands the glass
I fill it up to the brim
Till my troubles grow dim
It's my first one today

There stands the glass

"Thirsty"

"Thirsty"


How did I ever get so lucky
To be lying in your arms
I wouldn't trade my life
For somebody's millions
I'm just thirsty
And you are water

Some want wisdom, some need fame
Some may want a mansion far away
All I need is your tender loving
I'm just thirsty
And you are water

The way I feel when I hear your call
It's just like heaven when a gentle rain falls

I know the good Lord must have smiled
On the day he made you
And I'm just grateful that he heard me praying
He said, "You're just thirsty"
And he gave me water
I'm just thirsty
And you are water

"Timber, I'm Falling In Love"


Right time, the right place
The right body, the right face
Timber I'm falling in love

It started slow, it's coming fast
I got a feelin it's gonna last
