"In A Moment Of Weakness"

"In A Moment Of Weakness"

I knew she was lonely and I was alone
A stranger in a strange town too far from home
Her eyes blue as diamonds her hair black as coal
I could feel her desire burning like fire right down to my soul
In a moment of weakness who would have known
God was in heaven you were at home
I could have easily fallen forgotten till dawn
But in a moment of weakness your love held strong

I could say I wasn't tempted that would be a lie
A man is only human man and she was so alive
Could have said it didn't matter thrown caution to the wind
Could have been in her arms truth is my heart wouldn't let me give in
In a moment of weakness...
In a moment of weakness your love held strong

"Is That A Tear"

"Is That A Tear"

The last thing I expected was to get her call tonight
Cause the last thing that I'd heard from her was she'd found Mr Right
But when I came home this evening there it was on my machine
Now I'm just wondering what the hell it means
Said she's sorry that she missed me and she's been doing fine
I've run it back and heard her say those words a hundred times
But something makes me wonder is she happy with her choice
Or is that a tear I hear in her voice
[ fiddle - steel ]
The first time that I listened I thought boy she's got some nerve
But the second time I heard it I heard more than just her words
Am I just wishful thinking or did her voice really crack
I will never know if I don't call her back
Said she's sorry that she missed me...
Oh is that a tear oh is that a tear I hear in her voice

"It Only Takes One Bar (To Make A Prison)"

"It Only Takes One Bar (To Make A Prison)"

Last night she wasn't sleeping when I came slipping in
I knew I had it coming cause she knew where I'd been
She said a part of me walks out that door everytime you leave
So remember this while you are losin' me
It only takes one bar to make a prison
You've been doing too much time away from home
She said it takes two hearts to hold a love together
But it only takes one fool to be alone

She said I've sat here in the darkness one too many times
And stealin' thoughts of holding you has been my only crime
Right then I realized she'd always have the key
And locked up in her arms is the only time I'm free
It only takes one bar to make a prison
I've been doing too much time away from home
It takes two hearts to hold a love together
But it only takes one fool to be alone
It only takes one bar to make a prison and it only takes one fool to be alone

"It's All How You Look At It"

"It's All How You Look At It"

A little boy on a big jet plane
Taking off in the pouring rain
They're bouncin' round like a basketball
He says Mama what if we fall?
She looks in those big scared eyes
Son think of it like a circus ride
Next thing you know he's laughing out loud
Saying do it again as the wheels touched down
I guess Its all how you look at it
You might see more than the side that your seeing
Turn it upsidedown and shake it up abit
It could be a good thing
Its all how you look at it ya ya
Businessman playing air guitar
He always dreamed he'd be a superstar
Quits his job and starts singing at night
Is he giving up his living or taking back his life?
I guess its all how you look at it
You might see more than the side that your seeing
Turn it upsidedown and shake it up abit
It could be a good thing
Its all how you look at it
You've got your opinions and I've got mine
Can we agree to agree at some of the time ?
A glass half empty is a glass half full
And thats what makes life beautiful
I guess Its all how you look at it
You might see more than the side that your seeing
Turn it upsidedown and shake it up abit
It could be a good thing
Its all how you look at it
Its all how you look at it
You might see more than the side that your seeing
Turn it upsidedown and shake it up abit
It could be a good thing
Its all how you look at it.

"It's Got You All Over It"

"It's Got You All Over It"

Today my radio played a new love song pretty soon I was singing along
When the chorus came around I knew every word every line was written about you
It's got you all over it like a sweet melody that you can't forget
Reminds me of the love I'm in it's got you all over it
[ fiddle ]
From this ear-to-ear grin on my face to this feeling that makes my heart race
Even in the dreams I dream at night
Well I guess you could say I've got a one-track mind
It's got you all over it...
[ fiddle - steel ]
It's got you all over it...
It's got you all over it...
[ fiddle - steel ]

"It's Hard To Be An Outlaw"

"It's Hard To Be An Outlaw"

Graffiti on the overpass skidmarks on the road
Things I grew up doing I never did outgrow
In the middle of those running years she walked into my life
She couldn't get the devil outta me Lord knows she tried
She was right as rain she was good as gold but I wouldn't change
And now she's gone and I'm just not not the same
But it's hard to be an outlaw outrun or outdraw
The laws of life that you once could ignore
It's a desperate desperado who can't see through his sorrow
What he was running from or running for
Oh it's hard to be an outlaw when you're not wanted anymore
[ guitar ]
There was nowhere left to turn to but back to my old self
Living like there's no tomorrow now meant somethin' else
The trails I used to live to blaze are winding up dead ends
With a voice inside my head reminding me what could have been
I was wild as the wind as cold as they come thinking I was cool
Now looking back I'm looking at a fool
But it's hard to be an outlaw...
[ guitar ]
It's a desperate desperado...

"Jealousy"

"Jealousy"

We've built towers to the sky
And pyramids and desert dunes
Broke the speed of sound
Sent a man to the moon
We've roamed around this world
And sailed the seven seas
But we just can't seem to conquer
Our own humanity

[Chorus:]
Jealousy jealousy jealousy
Bound and chained by insecurity
Time again we've tried and failed
I guess the devil knows us well
Tell me what's it gonna take to set us free
From jealousy

Made brother turn on brother
Tore families apart
Stole our trust for one another
And put hatred in our hearts
Caused empires to crumble
Never caring about the cost
Yet nothin' quite compares
To nailing Jesus to the cross

[Repeat Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Of all the things we could've dwelt upon
The one thing we let destroy our happy home

[Repeat Chorus]

"Jesus Come Talk To Your Children"

"Jesus Come Talk To Your Children"

Jesus come talk to your children
Jesus come talk to us Lord
Jesus come talk, come talk, come talk to your children

Lord we gotta war down here
I Guess you might have heard
Tween blue and red, right and left,
The blessed and the cursed
That golden rule has lost its shine
And best as I could tell
Love thy neighbor and turn the other cheek
Has all gone straight to Hell

Jesus come talk to your children
Jesus come talk to us Lord
Jesus come talk, come talk, come talk to your children

Lord we have had some storms down here
Guess you might have seen
Some folks showed their good side
Some were down right mean.
The politics of fear and hate
Create the great divide.
They got us at each others throat
And got you taking sides.
SO
Jesus come talk to your children
Jesus come talk to us Lord
Jesus come talk, come talk, come talk to your children

We are black and blue
Tried and true
We are lions and we are sheep
So when I go to lay me down
My ragged soul to keep
I say...

Jesus come talk to your children
Jesus come talk to us Lord
Jesus come talk, come talk, come talk to your children

Jesus come talk to your children
Jesus come talk to us Lord
Jesus come talk, come talk, come talk to your children

I say Jesus come talk come talk to your children

"Just Like Her"

"Just Like Her"

Cigarettes are bad for your health
And smoky bars I can't help myself
I try to quit but it's a curse
I love 'em I hate 'em
I love 'em just like her

Old songs play like memories
They bring her back right here with me
They make me smile they make me hurt
I love 'em I hate 'em
I love 'em just like her

It's a fine line between love and hate
A heaven and a heartache
When it's good it's good when it's bad it's bad
She's the best she's the worst she's the best I've ever had

It's a fine line between love and hate
A heaven and a heartache
When it's good it's good when it's bad it's bad
She's the best she's the worst she's the best I've ever had

Photographs that we once took
When she still had that loving me look
I wanna save 'em I wanna watch 'em burn
I love 'em I hate 'em
I love 'em just like her

I love 'em I hate 'em

"Just Like That"

"Just Like That"

Last night I had a real good time just my buddies and me
A bunch of beer drinking card playing B.S.in' SOB's
A regular spot on Wednesday night
It didn't matter that there wasn't any women in sight
Well it don't get better than that as far as I can see

But this morning on my way to work I had a wake up call
From a blonde-haired blue-eyed beauty whose car had stalled
Well I asked her if she needed a ride
Then she threw a little wink at me and climbed inside
I bet the farm that the number she left me is worth a call

[Chorus:]
Just like that out of the blue head over heels before I knew
She sure changed my way of thinkin' that's a fact
You can call it luck or you can call it fate
Looks like cupid shot his arrow straight
I ain't never had a feelin' like this just like that

[Chorus]

Oh no
