you and your tight jeans waltzing
This will be our last song 'cause we've You

it's time to move so I I
didn't look back once and I The
sound was my beating heart when I But

OLD TYME COUNTRY I just threw my computer out the window And dusted off my phonograph today I took out my old records and I played them 'Cause old-time country music's here to stay
Now I don't mind that new stuff they've been playing But it's George and Merle I'm HANKering for today It's when I hear the old songs I feel younger 'Cause old-time country music's here to stay
Winters turn to summers then to spring Years fly past and it's the same old thing
When I look back I have to wonder why Where did they go those precious years gone by But time stands still when I hear those songs play 'Cause old-time country music's here to stay (guitar/steel solos) Winters turn to summers then to spring Years fly past and it's the same old thing
When I look back I have to wonder why Where did they go those precious years gone by But time stands still when I hear those songs play 'Cause old-time country music's here to stay Yes old-time country music's here to stay
IF YOU SEE MY NEW FRIEND We
met the first time three years ago Then
she told me she had to run If
you see, my new friend We
met again two years ago If
you see, my new friend We
met last back a year ago If
you see, my new friend
BEFORE I GO The
whistle blows The
day begins I'm
glad to be alive today A
flower blooms
You are my rose
I don't look back I
only know
IN FROM THE RAIN I run, but I run out of space What's to be in my own human race? Its light is a flickering flame Let love bring us in from the rain
Change, yea the times they change We just try to get by and arrange Our lives, as we hide from the pain But love brings us in from the rain
I seek, 'cause there's nowhere to hide I reach out, everywhere but inside To find, that some hope does remain 'Cause love brings us in from the rain
We fight for the right to survive And we pray that our hope's kept alive As good conquers evil again And love brings us in from the rain
Someday planes will stay in the skies No more flames bringing tears to our eyes 'Cause peace always wins over pain As love brings us in from the rain
In time we'll be hopeful again As love brings us in from the rain
HE THINKS EVERYTHING OF HER If he could only find a way If he could find the words to say He thinks everything of her And he needs to let her know, but how Because she doesn't know he cares They used to be the perfect pair But time goes by and life's a rush They didn't live and love enough
He wonders how she could ever love him now And hopes she will forgive The years that could a' been Can't get them back again He tries to find a way
If he could only find the words If he could heal all that was hurt He still thinks everything of her He still needs to let her know And more than that he's got to show By the way he lives each day That he thinks everything of her If he could only find the words to say
I think everything of you I may not say it but I do I'll try to show my love each day Now that I have found the way I think everything of you I may not say it but I do I'll try to show my love each day Now that I have found the way to say
He thinks everything of her He thinks everything of her He thinks everything of her
MASSACHUSETTS COUNTRY
Well we'd walk a country mile just to see you smile We're

WORKIN' DAY BLUES Well I'm packed up, jacked up, snacked up And ready to roll I'd rather sack down, skip town, turn 'round And just stay at home No time to snooze or lose those workin' day blues
I like work, that's fine, but it takes All of my time I work Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday By Thursday I'm fried Friday I choose to lose those workin' day blues
Out in the morning and back in the evening There's no time for thinking and no time for breathin' And then it starts all over again No time to play at the end of the day I got chores to do, more to do, no time to spend with you Seems like it will never end
Until Friday night I'll be all right I'll be out on the floor Saturday night I'll dance a little bit more To the band
Well now I'm dressed up, snapped up, tucked in And ready to burn I got my boots on, jeans on, feel strong I dance it's my turn Gone now that's the news those workin' day blues
(steel/guitar solos)

I DON'T NEED YOUR GOLD No
I won't be judged by the way I live my life It's
the world that sees everything that I can be I
came up for my review they told me what I shouldn't do
Then it hit me like a hammer in the middle of my head Maybe
I'll just play guitar and like Johnny I'll go far
Hey my hats off to you, when they told ya' you were through
YOU'RE
A LUCKY STAR* I was talking to my kids today About learning right from wrong It's what we try to teach our kids While they are very young
They'll grow up soon enough to make The choices good or bad And we won't always be there to Help them choose a path
So listen to the children and teach them good I don't mean well, I mean good. And you tell them Be kind, stay well and it's best if you Choose a path that's honest and true
'Cause you're a lucky star You know who you are You know wrong from right You shine through the night Be like Superman Do the best that you can Always look both ways Be kind everyday
The news was on I was with my kids When some sad story broke Another family torn apart And living without hope
Every day you make a choice Do good or do bad Be the one who mends the fence Don't make others sad
So listen to the children and teach them good I don't mean well, I mean good. And you tell them Be kind, stay well and it's best if you Choose a path that's honest and true
'Cause you're a lucky star You know who you are You know wrong from right You shine through the night Be like Superman Do the best that you can Always look both ways Be kind everyday
(guitar/steel solos)
I was talking to my kids today About learning right from wrong They're grown up now and thanked me for Those words that made them strong
I guess I was wrong about one thing With every little choice Between doing good or doing bad They said they'd heard my voice saying
You're a lucky star You know who you are You know wrong from right You shine through the night Be like Superman Do the best that you can Always look both ways Be kind everyday
You're a lucky star You know who you are You know wrong from right You shine through the night Be like Superman Do the best that you can Always look both ways Be kind everyday
