"Sparkle"

"Sparkle"

Sparkle, there's gotta be a sparkle
For you to love somebody
For you to really know
Brighter than the lights in the city
It's more than being pretty
The way you are inside

Why are you cryin'
Somebody's tryin'
To be with you only all the time
You hide behind tears
Counting the fears
You're so used to being alone

Sparkle, there's gotta be a sparkle
For you to love somebody
For you to really know
Sparkle, you got a certain sparkle
I know I love somebody
I gotta let it show

[Instrumental Break]

Nobody knows you
They can't get too close to
A girl who won't let down her disguise
You won't believe how much someone could love you
That someone is looking in your eyes

Sparkle, it's gotta be a sparkle
For you to love somebody
For you to really know
Brighter than the lights of the city
It's more than being pretty
It's the way you feel inside
Sparkle

[Instrumental Chorus Out]

"Sweet Augusta Darlin'"

"Sweet Augusta Darlin'"

She holds me when I'm sleepin'
She wakes me with a kiss
She is the only woman
My heart cannot resist

[Chorus:]
My sweet Augusta darlin'
Comes from those Georgia pines
My sweet Augusta darlin'
The one true love of mine

She whispers that she loves me
She knows I feel the same
I thank the Lord above me
When I hear her call my name

[Chorus]

We'll praise this perfect union
We'll watch the years go by
We'll be such sweet companions
Until the end of time

[Chorus]

My sweet Augusta darlin'
The one true love of mine

"Sweet Little Corrina"
(feat. Phil Everly)

"Sweet Little Corrina"
(feat. Phil Everly)

Here comes my little baby
Here comes my turtle dove
She drives me crazy
She's the one that I love
She's got a way about her
That I could never turn down
I couldn't live without her
She makes the world go around

[Chorus:]
Sweet little Corrina
Come over here by my side
Sweet little Corrina
Put your pretty little hand in mine
You could search the world over
Right up to the end of time
Every night I get to hold her
Sweet Corrina, now she's so fine

She's my little angel
My little beauty queen
She never met a stranger
She's the girl of my dreams
She's a ballerina
Sweet as she can be
Ought to see the way she's smilin' at me

[Chorus 2x]

"Sweet Thing"

"Sweet Thing"

I'd be out running most every night
We'd always end up in one hell of a fight
The end is comin' there ain't no doubt
But there's just that one thing I can't live without
Won't try to stop you can't change your mind
Been nice to know you, could you leave that sweet thing behind

You take the dishes, the silverware
I'll keep the hound dog and this easy chair
Keep the Ranchero, but that TV is mine
She said,'You can stick that clicker where the sun don't shine'
I know you're leaving can't change your mind
Been nice to know you, could you leave that sweet thing behind

That woman was real mean
My trailer park drama queen
I'm gonna have bad dreams
About missing that sweet thing
Oh Lord, I don't know what I am gonna do

Why's a tornado like a redneck divorce
Either way somebody's bound to lose a mobile home of course
Well that's my story, it's sad but true
I've only got one last request from you
I know you're leaving can't change your mind
Been nice to know you, could you leave that sweet thing behind
I know you're leaving can't change your mind
Been nice to know you, could you leave that sweet thing behind

"Take This Country Back"
(feat. John Anderson)

"Take This Country Back"
(feat. John Anderson)

They used to be rough and rowdy
And honky-tonk all night long
When the Opry spilled out in the alley
There wasn't nobody going home
When they turned out the lights at Tootsie's
And wind up at Cowboy Jack's
We've got to take this country back

We've got to take this country back
We need a few more matchin' Nudie suits
And silver dollar Cadillacs
There's one too many dime store cowboys
Muscled up in a cowboy hat
We've got to take this country back

Nobody wants to be Hank Williams
Sing about he lost highway
Well Saturday nights at the Ryman
Those were the good ole days
We need to turn the twang up a little
Bring back the Nashville Cats
We've got to take this country back

We've got to take this country back
We need a few more pointy toed cowboy boots
And steer horn Cadillacs
There's one too many dime store cowboys
Muscled up in a cowboy hat
We've got to take this country back

We've got to take this country back
We need a few more matchin' Nudie suits
And silver dollar Cadillacs
When we all gather up in Heaven
How we gonna face the man in black
We got to take this country back
When we all gather up in Heaven
How we gonna face the man in black
We got to take this country back

"Take Your Memory With You"

"Take Your Memory With You"

I can read the writing on the wall
You pretend that nothing's changed at all
I've got just one thing to ask you if it's so
Just take your memory with you when you go

So I won't have to think about
The lonely nights I'll be without
Someone to hold me when the cold wind blows
Take your memory with you when you go

I walk the floor and wonder what went wrong
I'll have to find a way to carry on
Why don't you leave before the heartache starts to show
Take your memory with you when you go

So I won't have to think about
The lonely nights I'll be without
Someone to hold me when the cold wind blows
Take your memory with you
So I won't have to miss you
Take your memory with you when you go

"Tell Me Fool"

"Tell Me Fool"

She said she loved you,
In front of God and her mother.
So why you’re out there,
With your arms around another?

Tell me fool (Tell me fool)
What did she ever do to you?

She had your babies,
And she keeps them safe at night.
You chase the ladies,
Thinking everything’s alright.

So tell me fool (Tell me fool)
What did she ever do to you?

You made a promise,
When you put on that ring.
Well, does your conscience,
Make you feel anything?

Tell me fool (Tell me fool)
What did she ever do to you?

She keeps the fire in this warmin’ home
Waitin’ all alone
Listenin’ for you to hit that door.

Ooh but you come beggin’ in,
Telling lies again.
She’s heard em all,
She’s heard em all a million times before.

You think you’re something,
The way you lie about it all.
The truth is comin’,
The other shoe is gonna fall, yes it is.

So tell me fool (Tell me fool)
What did she ever do to you?

You made a promise,
When you put on that ring.
Well, does your conscience,
Make you feel anything?

Tell me fool (Tell me fool)
What did she ever do to you?
Yeah, tell me fool (Tell me fool)
What did she ever do to you?
Tell me fool (Tell me fool)
What did she ever do to you?

"Tell Me Lover"

"Tell Me Lover"

Tell me lover, tell me what you're gonna do
You gonna walk the walk or just talk the talk
Honey, what's up with you

[Chorus:]
Tell me lover, tell me how it's gonna be
You gonna mess around or just turn me down
Honey, won't you please tell me

Your good intentions ain't too good no more
You answer questions by slammin' that bedroom door
Come on baby let's turn the lamp down low
I'll solve your problems so honey please don't go

If the silence could kiill, honey we'd both be dead
It ain't hard to tell we're hangin' on by a thread
Say somethin' darlin' say what's on your mind
We'll find the answer, I got nothin' but time

"Tell Me One More Time About Jesus"
(feat. Amy Grant)

"Tell Me One More Time About Jesus"
(feat. Amy Grant)

Tell me one more time about Jesus
All about forgiveness and grace
Tell me one more time about Jesus
All about my Savior's face

Here comes my old friend the preacher
He's knocking at my door
He's out tryin' to save all the sinners
He's been here so many times before

I love the easy conversation
Man that preacher sure can talk
Brings up my need for salvation
Even though he knows I'm stubborn to a fault

Tell me one more time about Jesus
All about forgiveness and grace
Tell me one more time about Jesus
Lord I need just a little more faith

I walked by the church Sunday mornin'
Slipped on in the back door
Sure been a long time coming
Tell preacher what I need to know

His words were like a cool drink of water
He said sinners come on down the aisle
So I went runnin' for the alter
Should have seen my old friend the preacher smile

Tell me one more time about Jesus
All about forgiveness and grace
Tell me one more time about Jesus
I long to see my Savior's face
I long to see my Savior's face

"That Friend Of Mine"

"That Friend Of Mine"

That friend of mine wears an old work shirt
For a long long time she has blessed this earth
And a smile that shines even when she hurts
O how I love that friend of mine

That friend of mine gave her heart to me
How sweet and kind the truth can be
And God's tie that binds us as family
Oh how I love that friend of mine

She's an angel she's the answer
The sweetest piece of heaven in my eyes
She's drawn to me like gravity
I'd lay down and die for that friend of mine

She's an angel she's the answer
The sweetest piece of heaven in my eyes
She's drawn to me like gravity
I'd lay down and die for that friend of mine
I'd lay down and die for that friend of mine
That friend of mine wears an old work shirt
