You've stuck to me like glue
you've remained loyal and true.
You are my love
you are my soul
You are my HEARRRT
You are My ROCCK!!!!

ME AND THE ROOSTER
V1
The rain is hitting off the barn door
and on the window pane
I've come to a decision
boy, I'm tired of playin' your little game.
You come home at 2am
don't act like I don't know
Just go to bed and turn the lights
out
not a word
while I watch
this rain turn into snow
And as I try to think
about what just happened
tonight.
And contemplate our future
and what will make things right.
The only companion I have out here is
the sea of stars
ITS JUST ME
AND THE ROOSTER
V2
Now I've given it a lot of thought
sitting out here in the garden
Sitting out here in the cold on
a lonely bench
I begin to wonder how it will all
turn out and I got to thinkin'
That you've made one mistake too many
and this will be your last
because tomorrow I'll be leavin
this small one horse-town
and never comin' back.
And as I try to think
about what just happened
tonight

THE HICORY COUNTY BBQ BASH
She wanted me to
do the dishes
fix the flat on the
pickup truck
and mow the lawn
Next came the vaccuum cleaner
and I came to understand
that this woman had only one thing in mind
to spoil all my weekend plans.
So I went about the daily g rind
tried to finish everything up real fast
There was no way in hell
that woman was going to make me
miss the biggest party of the year.
Down at the
Big Hickory County BBQ BAsh.
CHORUS:
Its a bunch of guys
gathered round
raisin' a ruckus
through town
DFancin' all night down on the square
Doesn't everybody love a good fair?
And just before the clock strikes midnight
We light a match and the
grill burns bright
Yeah at the end of the day
Everyone can say they had a blast
Down at the Big Hickory County
BBQ Bash.
And after all that
our friends called.

FIND MY WAY TO TENNESSEE
She was a young girl
Out on the streets of
Vegas
Takin tricks at sixteen
Just to try to go to college
She had her family in
her heart
She had spirit but
a broken start.
Growin' up on the wrong side
of the tracks
had almost killed her dreams
little did she know her life would change.
She'd find a ray of hope in a driving' rain
The day she came up to me
And said
Can you help me get out of this place
And find my way to Tennessee?
CHORUS:
V2
Five years later we were livin'
outside of a trailer park
not far from the ole' opry.
I said I don't have much to offer you
but the kindness of my heart
and a place halfway to your dream
So here's the key.
I'd drive her to practices
at the high school marching band
You could tell this girl had talent
all she needed was one chance
V3
I let Mark Summers
take her on her way
teach her to play the
guitar.
I was never far behind
on the jounrey of her dreams
She was a rising star.
I'd go to every show from
500 to start watchin' them
grow
Nwow as I grow older I
know
She'll be all-right
no matter where she goes
She's singin' with Martina
Trisha
and Kenny
Now I can die in peace
She's made it from the mean streets
of Vegas and found her wayyyyy
To Tennesseee

BETTER IN BOZEMAN
Living in the land
of the Big Skyyyy
Where the pick up truck

and the eagles flyyyyy
Where everyone wheres

and plays a guitar
where there are far more
horses and cattle
than there are people
or cars.

But now I tip my cowboy hat
because everything is

What once was lost
now is found
what was once cold
is now hot
the whole world has
been turned up-side
down
And as I look out
over this land
from this
mountain high
I can't help but look up to
the stars and wonder why
oh why
Why Can't we Soar?
If we don't have a pair a wings?
]Was it just a cruel fate
or was it meant to be?
The longer it burns in me
now is found
what was once cold
is now hot
the whole world has
been turned up-side
down
And as I look out

TAKE TIME
Take time to thank
the ones who've
helped you
get to where you are.
Take time to take out
those scissors
and cut up those credit cards
take time for the ones you love and the good
lord up above.
Take time for our mother earth
the ones who've
helped you
get to where you are.
Take time to take out
those scissors
and cut up those credit cards
take time for the ones you love and the good
lord up above.
Take time for our mother earth
IF I COULD FLY
Everything would be different but
my world is going up in flames
I tried to get what i wanted
by deceit and now there's a
price to pay
I've got my wings through
trickery
How can I keep up this
forgery?
Sooner or later the truth
will come out and my world
will go up in flames
If only I could fly
I wouldn't have to live this life.
If I could soar
I could rule the world
and then maybe our lives could be better
And no one would have to be hurt
there'd be no pain
no one would cry
no one would ask
the question why?

Whats there a time when you almost had enough

A WISE MAN ONCE SAID TO ME
SON YOUR BEST TO HEAD OUT WEST
BUT I DIDN'T TAKE HIS ADVICE AND STAYED OUT
HERE FOR BUSINESS
I STUDIED AT HARVARD GOT MY MBA
GOT MY DOCTORATE FROM BENTLEY
GO A GOOD JOB A BMW AND A GREAT
FAMILY
IN A THREE BEDROOM TOWN-HOUSE
JUST OUTSIDE OF WASHINGTON D.C.
NO MATTER HOW MUCH I TRIED,
I NEVER WAS TRULY HAPPY
I WAS OUT IN DENVER ON A BUSINESS TRIP DRIVING
ALONG THOSE ROCKY MOUNTAINS WHEN I REMEMBERED WHAT THAT WISE
MAN SAID TO ME:
CHORUS:
HE SAID
OUT HERE YOU CAN BREATHE THE FRESH AIR
YOU CAN SEE FOR MILES
AND ATTEND A COUNTRY FAIR.
THESE ARE THE THINGS THAT YOU JUST CAN'T DO OVER
THERE
YOU CAN SQUARE DANCE WITH THE WHOLE TOWN
DOWN ON THE TOWN SQUARE
YOU CAN BUILD THAT RANCH
AND WATCH YOUR COUNTRY DREAMS COME TRUE
YOU CAN COUNT EVERY STAR AND ALL THE PLANETS TOO.
YOU CAN BREAK OUT YOUR GUITAR
AND PLAY A COUNTRY-TUNE
YOU CAN WATCH THE FIRE-FLIES DANCE AROUND
YOU CAN FLY A KITE UP ON A HILL OR
ATTEND A NEIGH-BOR HOOD BBQ
THAT'S THE COUNTRY WAY AND YOU KNOW ITS TRUE
SO SON WHAT YOU GONNA DO?
YOU CAN PLANT THAT CORN IN THE GROUND
YOU CAN STAND UP ON A HILL
AND SEE THE WHOLE TOWN
YOU CAN JUMP IN THE CREEK OFF THAT BRIDGE
AND SPLASH AROUND
YOU JUST CAN'T DO THAT IN THE BIG CITY.
CAN'T YOU SEE?
AS I WAS DRIVIN' ALONG, I CAME TO REALIZE
THAT THIS LIFE I WAS LIVIN' JUST WASN'T
THE RIGHT LIFE FOR ME
OUT EAST I CAME TO MISS THOSE ROCKY SNOW CAPPED MOUNTAINS
AND HOW THAT FRESH SNOW PACK REALLY SHINES
I'M THANKFUL THAT THAT OLD MAN WAS THERE FOR ME
I JUST HOPE THAT SOME DAY I'LL BE ABLE TO COME BACK
IN TIME
TO SEE ANOTHER COLORADO SUNRISE

18 WHEELER BLUES
Its a tough line of work
Sometimes it can be like winnin' the lotto but other times
You're gonna lose--
Its the lonely blacktop closin' in
Didn't you hear the news

18 wheeler blues.
Haulin this 18 wheeler tractor trailer just outside of New Orleans
headin' for Arkansas up to Knoxville Tennessee.
Later on we'll be doin' 85 all the way to Washington D.C.

In home room
I'd always try to get his
attention
But he never paid
any attention to me
He'd ignore me every time
I tried to mention
that he was the right
guy for me..
Chorus:
It may be wrong but
to me its right
So I'm gonna try to go
out and get him tonight
I'm not gonna stop
until I win the fight
I'm gonna enjoy the party
No its not going to stop tonight.
I'm going to have

He danced with his girlfriend
Kelly
All night long
I just couldn't see
it'd never work out
My one goal was to have the
Guy of my life
V2
College came and everyone moved away
I followed him out to school in L.A.
We both got management drgees
From the business school at U.S.C.
I was the best goalie on the college
soccer team
Now that Kelli was gone
I thought he'd fall for me
But some things just don't change
was it cruel fate or just
the way it was meant to be?
When I look back I wonder why I couldn't see
that no matter how hard that I tried
he'd never fall in love with me.
Dontcha you know a fact's a fact.
That's what is wrong just ain't right.
I'm never going to stop this fight.
I'm going to win this battle.
And have the Guy.
The Guy of My Life.
In home room
I'd always try to get his
attention
But he never paid
any attention to me
He'd ignore me every time
I tried to mention
that he was the right
guy for me..
Chorus:
It may be wrong but
to me its right
So I'm gonna try to go
out and get him tonight
I'm not gonna stop
until I win the fight
I'm gonna enjoy the party
No its not going to stop tonight.
I'm going to have
the GUY OF MY LIFE

MY FIRST GUITAR
He wasn't there
for my first bike ride
he wasn't there for my
birthday
he wasn't there when
I cast my first
fishing line
He wasn't there
when I got my first
home run
he wasn't there when I bagged
that deer with my new
shot-gun
He always dodged the question
when I asked him why?
He said son money's tight
I've got to work
there ain't that much time
So every night when
I lay down in my bed
I'd pray
and wish upon a star
that he'd finally
come around and see
How much he's missed
CHORUS:
MY 1st home run
MY 1st Gold Star
My 1st Bike ride
My 1st Guitar
That firshingpole
and that shotgun
sometimes
I shake my head
and wonder why?
He missed me playing
My first guitar.

THEY'LL SAY
They'll say you can't do it
They'll try to make you fail
They'll try to throw you out like trash
into the garbage pail
They'll try to drive a stake
right through the center of your
heart
They'll try to take away the light
and replace your world with dark.
They'll try everything they can
to take away your dream
But you can make it happen
if you just believe
They'll say you'll never make it
They'll try to tear you down
They'll call you names
they'll try to break you
they'll try to run you right
out of town.
But you've got to stand up
and fight
for what you believe.
You've got to be yourself
and you will succeed.
You'll score that winning goal
You'll be the be.
All you've got to do is trust in your
heart and just believe
Just believe

Just Be-lieve

THIS AMAZING LIFE
Its all coming clearer
as I look at myself in the mirror
that its been one heck of a ride.
And we should all be thankful that
we're still alive
So stop and smell the roses
once in a while
always try to go
the extra mile

I'm so glad I'm not alone
and as we look down on our home
I feel like a statue made of stone.
The words are there but
can't come out just right.
My heart is beating like a drum
because one mistake and there's
nowhere to run
So take my claw
and spread your wings
lets soar above the tallest tree
its time for me to show you
some of life's finer things.
its time for you to be free
to touch the sky
so come with me
lets see how high we can fly.

He was a senators son
Never had to work one day
He was set for life.

JUST ONE WISH
vV1
She works the late shift
at Sloppy Joes
She tries her best to be there for
her kids.
When she comes home
She's given them the world
and tried to be the best
mom that she can be
now her one wish is for her
oldest to come home from
the U.S. Army
Chorus:
She doesn't ask for much
Just one phone call as a gift.
Just one more moment
that her heart can't miss.
Just one letter with a written
XOXO kiss.
All she wants is to see her
son one more time.
All she wants is Just one Wish.
V2
Now time passes and
her two youngest are growing up
One is in the NAVY the other
in the National Guard.
Her oldest son is serving in
Basra Iraq
Oh what she'd do if she could
just have her babies back.
But she knows that
can't happen
and they're growing up
And as they head off to the battlefield
She holds them in her arms
and with a mothers' love
Wishes them the best of luck.
And before she loses them for the
next few years.
She holds them in her arms and
gives each of them a kiss.
Just one more moment with her boys
her heart can't miss.

THE HOUR GLASS
V1
When you're looking through
that hour glass
Do you see time passing by?
Or do you see the
world ahead of you
Is it with me or that
other guy?
I can see things getting darker as my sand
slowly falls.
All I ask is for a little more time
to stand tall
And say
CHORUS:
that--
Time passses so quickly
like a shooting star
As I watch that sand slowly dissolve
as I watch those passing cars.
I wonder which one you're driving in.
I hope you might run out of gas
So I can have you back.
Because I don't want to see our time slipping
away
Through that hour glass.
Yeah
Because I don't want to see our time slipping
away
Through that hour glass
BRIDGE
As this sand falls
as time passes by
Darlin' I want
you back
Because I don't want to see
our love slippin away
through the hour glass.

When I look at this life
What can I see>
I see someone who
Once had a dream
If I could believe
I might be able to try
but right now the pain's
too deep
all I can do is
cry.
Without you I'm nothing
I'm no one I'm lost
without you I only half
half of my heart
Without you I'm drifting
out into space.
No one remember the one
who came in second place.
What can I see>

My Daughter came home from school one day.
While I was out bailin' the hay.
I came in the door when it started to rain.
She asked me dad is it all-right?
I asked her what are you talkin' about what's your plan or ploy?
She said I'm thinkin' about askin' out this new boy
I asked her is it Bobby John, Luke Wilson, or Stu? If its
Tommy Houston I just might puke.
She said no dad, its just bobby McHugh
Can I ask him please
Oh Daddy
I love you
Chorus:
I Said I think I'll invite him over tomorrow a little bit past nine.
Just when harvest day is at an end
I'll sit down for a little chat over some country music and a couple
of beers
Then we'll go out to the pasture to herd in the steers
When wer'e through with that long hard cattle drive.
I'll take him out on the tractor and we'll talk till 12:25.
I'll say son you better treat my daughter right if you want to stay alive.
Or I'll introduce you to my friend.
