"Don't Look The Other Way"

I remember Dad and I
Stopped the car one rainy night
To help a stranger fix a flat
And get on his way
And I said Daddy do you know that man
Was he one of your friends
And he just smiled Said let me help you understand
So don't look the other way
When you can help someone in need

"Indian Summer"

The sun goes down on another day
Feels like winter is here to stay
Snow clouds gather in the northern sky
Looks like it's gonna be a cold dark night
Summer seems like a long lost friend I pray for the warmth of its touch again
Down in the deepest part of me
The wintertime comes and the warm sun leaves
The ground gets hard and the heart gets cold

"Memory Like That"

There are moments in your life
That are frozen in your mind
That will change the heart of how you feel forever
And I remember the rain
The sky was black
You were tryin' to fix a flat I knew I'd never be the same
The second I pulled over
It was me It was you
The world fell away from where we stood

"End Of This Road"

Two thousand miles of blacktop
One hundred medium coffee cups
Seven lonely sunsets that
Could almost make you cry
Late night gospels on the radio
Haven't seen a car in an hour or so
Your picture on the dashboard
Sure does make the miles go by
I've got a heart that's running
On a half a tank of gas

"Walking"

I go walkin'
Down a long road tonight
I go walkin'
Not a single soul in sight
The night air is so cool
The moon shines so bright
It's lonely out here
But I'm feelin' alright
I keep walkin'
I keep walkin'
I'll be sendin' up a prayer
I'll be climbin' heaven's stairs
I'll be lookin' out for fun

"When I Leave This House"

Just like Cain & Able
I let the devil come 'round
Now I'm the king of the garden
With a snake for a crown
When the lord points his finger
Baby I'm goin' down
Well, I'm no Hells Angel
But I like to pretend I'm the king of the highway
On the prairie wind
With a black leather soul
I'm gonna ride to the bitter end, here we go

"Workin' On It"

I won't lie
Sometimes it seems just too much to ask
For love to last I play the strong one holding on
Keeping it together
The man with the plan
When I know better baby
All I can do Is hold on to you
And keep workin' on it baby
Get down and dirty
Not afraid to sweat
To have to earn it
Workin' on it, baby

"Where It's At"

I've got a window down
I've got a road in front of me
I've got a radio
I got no place that I gotta be
And it feels so fine to be killing time
And it feels so free to just shoot the breeze
And where it's at is where I'm gonna be
And who I am, that's the only thing that
Belongs to me
Sunday afternoon, just hanging out

"Sweet Memories"

There's a town by a river
And a dirt road that runs through the town
Winding around
As a child I would daydream
Where that road might take me
When my time for leavin' came down
And each night I'd awaken
From a dream I was takin'
That 'ol dirt road out of this town
Sweet memories keep haunting me

"Could Have Fooled Me"

I'm fading like the taillights
Of a car that you pass
In the middle of the night
Man it's lonely out here
There just ain't enough gasoline
To put the distance I need between
The hurt inside
Wasn't it good
Wasn't it right
Wasn't it worth sticking around for
Putting up a fight?

"I Don't Think So"

Has there ever been a moment so good?
Has there ever been a morning so bright?
You know the whole world looks different
Since I found you
Before we touched was I really alive?
Some things you just know for sure
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
Now I'm too into you
To ever turn my heart around
Is the sun gonna shine on a rainy night?

 "In The Country"

I was born in the country
Far away from city lights
Where the air is sweeter
Where I feel I feel alright
In the country I was born and raised
In the country, yeah
In the country
That's where I'm gonna stay
In the country
Yeah
Come on rosin up the bow
We'll party 'till the rooster crows

"The World Could Use A Cowboy"

There are fences that need to be mended
There's a stray cut off from the herd
That needs to be defended By a lonely campfire
Underneath the stars He sings his sad songs
And strums his guitar I tell you what the world could use
Is a little John Wayne kind of attitude

The world could use a cowboy right about now

"The Ring"

She stares at that ring on her finger
with a far away look in her eyes
She thinks of the memories that linger
of the good days that quickly flew by

And she remembers the day
When a young man would say
that he'd found the love of his life
She gave him her hand and he placed on a band
and asked her if she'd be his wife

"Sky Is The Limit"

I sat on the couch, with a book in my hand
I thought of all the good times that I've had
But even though life's sometimes hard
and it's hard to understand
The sky is the limit, so do with it what you can

Oh, the sky's the limit oh the sky never ends
even though life's a struggle, one day it will end
So make the best of what you have

"Leavin' That Cowgirl With The Blues"

He's been riding that rodeo
From town to town
From show to show
He's got a restless wandering soul
His horse and saddle is his home

And she loves him
more than he knows
Yeah she loves him
enough to let him go

Let your horses all run free
Let your wings take you

"It Ain't Cool"

I used to wonder why the songs on the radio
always seemed to be about love
If you look every book, every TV show
is just full of that stuff

They write about it, talk about it
inside and out
They even cry about it
for crying out loud
Ah, but now that I've got it
I get it now

It ain't cool to sing love songs

"Too Young To Know"

They say we're too young to know
We're too young to fall in love
But all I keep dreaming of
is marrying you

They say we're too young to know
Then how come it hurts inside
And how come I cry at night
when you say we are through
They don't understand a thing
Nothing will change our plans

"Half Past Loving You"

Half Past Loving You
I'm getting there yeah
I got a ways to go
But I'm getting there
The memories don't hurt like before
I'm getting there
I'm getting there

It's half past loving you
A quarter 'til I
Find a love that's new
Time will heal the heart
That's broken in two
