"It's All Good"

"It's All Good"


Mother earth has changed since i was a child
The east is a beast and the west is really wild
And the headlines say the end looks grim
And the future don't look so bright

You can't even open your mailbox, you can't take the plane
And everybody'lookin'for somebody to blame
I think I'm gonna let the president
Save this ol' world tonight

I'll light us a fire
And she'll turn off the news
We'll open a cold one and shake these blues

[chorus]
It's all good
It's alright
I'm gonna sit here with my baby all night
And let the troubles of this world
Roll on by us like they should
It's all cool
It's ok
We've got everything going our way
Can't complain if we're alright
It's all good

I'm just a ragular Joe, with a beautiful girl
Just gettin by in a day-to-day world
We ain't got a lot, but we don't need anything

Covered in kises, surrounded by love
Showered with blessings from up above
When you'r sittin' on top of the world, man we got everything

we live out here in the country
Where the workin' class do
We've got our health and our happiness too

[chorus]

No can't complain 'cause we're alright
And it's all good

"Jacky Don Tucker"

"Jacky Don Tucker"



Jacky Don Tucker was my daddy's little brother
And at seventeen he jumped the fence
He joined a rock 'n' roll band, got a tattoo on his hand
Granny said he never had a lick of sense
'Cause by the time he turned seven he was a stealin' watermelons
Playin' house with the girl next door
Drinkin' muscadine wine by the time he was nine
Sneakin' out and smokin' cigarettes under the porch

He was a melon stealin'
Cop-a-feelin'
Daredevil fool
A do-it-anywayin'
Playin' hooky from school
A water tower poet class of '73
He'd say by God you better know it if you're runnin' with me
'Cause I'm skinny dippin' finger flippin' son of a gun
Play by the rules
You're gonna miss all the fun

He was always drag racin' and he kept the sheriff chasin'
But they never caught ole Jacky Don
'Cause he was nobody's fool, the definition of cool
He even cut a donut on the courthouse lawn
He created quite a scandal that the locals couldn't handle
When he took up with the preacher's baby girl
They bought a new double wide and on their wedding night
Aunt Jenny went to rockin'
Uncle Jacky Don's world

He was a melon stealin'
Cop-a-feelin'
Daredevil fool
A do-it-anywayin'
Playin' hooky from school
A water tower poet class of '73
He'd say by God you better know it if you're runnin' with me
'Cause I'm skinny dippin' finger flippin' son of a gun
Play by the rules
You're gonna miss all the fun

He was a melon stealin'
Cop-a-feelin'
Daredevil fool
A do-it-anywayin'
Playin' hooky from school
A water tower poet class of '73
He'd say by God you better know it if you're runnin' with me
'Cause I'm skinny dippin' finger flippin' son of a gun
Play by the rules
You're gonna miss all the fun

Play by the rules
You're gonna miss all the fun

"Jesus Gets Jealous Of Santa Claus"

"Jesus Gets Jealous Of Santa Claus"



Layin' back in my easy chair
Late last Christmas eve
Silent night, twinkling lights
Presents 'round the tree
I heard my little girl's two bare feet
Comin' down the stairs
She was sad as I looked over
Draggin' her teddy bear

She said, now daddy, I had a dream
A little angel came down to me
She wasn't happy like angels ought to be
She was cryin' when she gave me the message
For all the world to hear
You know that Jesus gets jealous of Santa Claus
Sometimes this time of year

So, with her head on my shoulder
And her tears mixed with mine
I thought how little baby Jesus
Gets left out at Christmas time
It ain't about the money
Oh, money can't buy love
And I saw the light that Christmas night
With help from up above

She said, now daddy, I had a dream
A little angel came down to me
She wasn't happy like angels ought to be
She was cryin' when she gave me the message
For all the world to hear
You know that Jesus gets jealous of Santa Claus
Sometimes this time of year

She said that Jesus gets jealous of Santa Claus
Sometimes this time of year.

"Just Another Sundown"

"Just Another Sundown"



Just another sundown, Just another bar stool,
Just another place where a fool can find another fool,
Just another slow dance with just another she ain't you
Just another chance of feeling better than I really do

There was a time you told me you'd love me forever
But baby didn't forever get here fast

Just another midnight, Just another cigarette
Waitin' on the "it's gonna be alright" that hasn't got here yet

Yeah there was a time you told me you'd love me forever
But baby didn't forever get here fast

Just another closing time, Just another shot before
Just another long ride home that don't feel like home anymore

Mmmhmmm
Mmmhmmm
Mmmhmmm
Mmmhmmm

"Just The Guy To Do It"

"Just The Guy To Do It"



Do blondes really have more fun
Or they just easier to spot in the dark?
Girl, I'm just tryin' to cheer you up
I saw you sittin' over here all alone, with a broken heart
It's hurtin' you real bad, wish there was somethin' that I had
I'd hook you up, get you through it
You might need a man to hold you 'til it don't
I'm just the guy to do it

Is that your pretty boy standin' there at the end of the bar
He's got some nerve
Talkin' loud and drinkin' with a red head ridin' shotgun on his arm
He's such a jerk
I think he's a knucklehead, all those ugly things he said were out of line
Man, he blew it
He might need someone to put him in his place
I'm just the guy to do it

Baby, I can't mend your broken heart
I can't take away your pain
I can't promise you the sun is gonna shine when you're walkin' in the rain
If you need a hero for tonight, I can be the one, let me prove it
Yeah, you just say the magic words and we'll be gone
I'm just the guy to do it

Baby, I can't mend your broken heart
I can't take away your pain
I can't promise you the sun is gonna shine when you're walkin' in the rain
Oh but if you need a hero for tonight, I can be the one, let me prove it
Yeah, you just say the magic words and we'll be gone
I'm just the guy to do it

Do blondes really have more fun
Or are they just easier to spot in the dark?

"Kissin' In The Rain"

"Kissin' In The Rain"



Thunderbird was July hot now
Muddy lake was the perfect spot for
Camp fire, drinkin' beer
Skippin' half your senior year

Told your mama little white one
She didn't want you hangin' out in the sun
With a small town roughneck man
That will never be nothin' but an old field hand

Shut up with your girl friend
'Bout the time a storm rode in
Wind got up, it was pourin' down
We could hear the sirens goin' off in town

We were kissin' in the rain, kissin' in the rain
Hittin' hard like a hurricane
Summer nights lit up with lightnin'
Soakin' wet starin' in your eyes and

We didn't care a thing about the thunder
While the angry sky we were under
Was raisin' Cane
We were kissin' in the rain

You got in too late that night
And you and mama had a fight
You weren't ever gonna win
Never got to see me again

Well, I get storm the days roll by
Now and then I still drive
Cross the dam in my old Ford
I get out and walk that shore

I still see you standin' there
Blue jeans too wet to wear
Hair all drenched and out of place
And mascara runnin' down your face

Every time the clouds get low
And the sirens start to blow
I get a sweet little déjà vu
My Thunderbird, me and you

Were kissin' in the rain, kissin' in the rain
Hittin' hard like a hurricane
Summer nights lit up with lightnin'
Soakin' wet starin' in your eyes and

We didn't care a thing about the thunder
While the angry sky we were under
Was raisin' Cane
We were kissin' in the rain
Yeah
Kissin' in the rain

"Knock Yourself Out"

"Knock Yourself Out"


If you wanna go back to him, baby, get up and go
im tired of being a clown caught up in your
sideshow
night after night it never ends
its like a heavyweight fight nobody wins
and im throwin'
in the towel, enough is enough

[chorus]
Knock yourself out, break me in two
you gotta go do what you gotta do
i gave you my best shot, but
you didnt fall
head over heels in love after all
i dont wanna hear no more, baby, theres the door

theres nothin left to fight about
knock yourself out

oh, lets not pull any punches while we're standin here toe to toe
if you're gonna leave me here,
baby go on, go

[repeat chorus]

oh knock yourself out

if you wanna go back to him, baby, get up and go

"Last Living Cowboy"

"Last Living Cowboy"



He turned 87 on the 2nd day of June.
In case nobody's countin' Son, that's many a moon.
You'll find him down on Main Street. That's where he likes to walk.
It's worth the price of admission just to hear that old man talk.

He's the last livin' cowboy in this town.
He rode off into the sunset, yet naw, he's still kickin' round.
You'll find him halfway liquored up on Caddo County shine,
Or all the way drunk half the time.

He's got 40 head of cattle down on Turkey creek.
There's always some old stray dog round the cabin at his feet.
His family left for California back in '29.
When it was two bits for the whiskey, and tobacco was a dime.

He's the last livin' cowboy in this town.
He rode off into the sunset, yet he's still kickin' round.
You'll find him halfway liquored up on Caddo county shine,
Or all the way drunk half the time.

Keeps a jack knife in his pocket and pistol in his boot.
I've heard a lot of stories, but I've never seen him shoot.
A '60 model pickup's all I've ever seen him drive.
He 'aint rode a horse since the day ole Bully died.

He's the last livin' cowboy in this town.
He rode off into the sunset, yet he's still kickin' round.
You'll find him halfway liquored up on Caddo County shine,
Or all the way drunk half the time.

Yeah, you'll find him halfway liquored up on Caddo County shine,
Or all the way drunk half the time.

"Life Was A Play (The World Was A Stage)"

"Life Was A Play (The World Was A Stage)"



Lookin' back on my younger days
Life was a play and the world a stage
Lust, love and greed were in my heart
I thought I had to play each part

I'd skip school and get in a fight
Had a different girl every Friday night
But it all came out in the wash
Dad always said boys will be boys

Mom and dad backed me through it all
Picked me up each time I'd fall
In fact they called it growing pains
And said all kids must try such things
They kept the faith and brought me through
I still make a mistake or two
Lookin' back on my younger days
Life was a play and the world a stage

I lost my driver's license twice
For speeding and running red lights
But like all kids I lived and learned
Play with fire and you'll get burned

I bucked the system day and night
Smoked cigarettes and tried the wine
Thought breakin' rules was bein' cool
It's clear to me now I was a fool

Mom and dad backed me through it all
Picked me up each time I'd fall
In fact they called it growing pains
And said all kids must try such things
They kept the faith and brought me through
I still make a mistake or two
Lookin' back on my younger days
Life was a play and the world a stage

Yeah everything turned out ok
Life was a play and the world a stage

"Little Miss Tear Stain"

"Little Miss Tear Stain"



You say you hate me,
You don’t love me,
You don’t ever wanna hear from me again
You’ve had time to think about it,
After all look at how long it’s been

You have second thoughts,
I wouldn’t know it,
‘Cause I ain’t heard a word since you went away
I’m gonna find out,
Next time I see you
Think I’m gonna walk right up to you and say,

Sweet little miss tear stain,
Would you entertain,
The thought of maybe having it all?
Could we ever get back together,
Or is never still a good time to call?

Are you still hot, girl, as a firecracker?
‘Cause you were smokin’ when you pulled out
I know hell ain’t freezin’ over,
But it might be chillin’ out by now

Sweet little miss tear stain,
Would you even entertain,
The thought of maybe having it all?
Could we ever get back together,
Or is never still a good time to call?

Yeah, could we ever get back together?
Or is never still a good time to call?

I’ll call you up baby,
Oh yeah.
