Playing For Keeps
(words & music by kesler)
Im playin for keeps
This time its real
And I want you to know
Exactly how I feel
Im playin for keeps
Im sure this time
And I wont be happy
Until I know youre mine
There have been others
That could love me true
But no one else can thrill me like you do
Im playin for keeps
Oh love me too
Oh, dont make me sorry
That I fell in love with you
There have been others
That could love me true
But no one else can thrill me like you do
Im playin for keeps
Oh love me too
Oh, dont make me sorry
That I fell in love with you

Nothin' On But The Radio
I sure do hope this is a long night
Cause I have never felt one so right
Each look into your eyes, I'm fallin'
A little more and more
Looks like we started us a fire
Wrapped up in flames of desire
With every touch, they're burnin' higher
Two shadows dancin' on the wall
With nothin' on but the radio
Feel the music playin' soft and slow
You and me and the lights down low
With nothin' on but the radio
We'll fall asleep here in the moonlight
In tangled sheets, we'll be here all night
And when we wake up in the morning
We might stay like this all day
Two people meant to be together
Two lovers dreamin' of forever
And it just keeps on gettin' better
With every tender little kiss
Nothin' on but the radio
Feel the music playin' soft and slow
You and me and the lights down low
With nothin' on but the radio
Two people meant to be together
Two lovers dreamin' of forever
And it just keeps on gettin' better
With nothin' on but the radio
Feel the music playin' soft and slow
You and me and the lights down low
With nothin' on but the radio
You and me and the lights down low
With nothin' on but the radio

Do You Want To Play House
Call me ready, call me ready or not
And Ill say yeah! yeah! yeah!
Give it all I got
Call me in the morning, when Im half asleep
Rivers runnin high on the mountain deep
Call me deadly, call me deadly serious
And Ill say yeah! yeah! yeah!
I couldnt care enough
Call me when you want to control the vice
Ill defend your honor when you roll the dice
Do you want to play house,do you want to play house
Playin in the house of love?
Do you want to play house,do you want to play house
Playin in the house,playin in the house of love
Call me over, call me over the top
And Ill say yeah! yeah! yeah!
Never wanna stop
Call me on hire when youre in your shell
Wanna be your fire, wanna ring your bell
Do you wanna play house, do you wanna play house
Playin in the house of love
Do you wanna play house, do you wanna play house,
Playin in the house, playin in the house of love?
Call me never, call me never say die
And Ill say yeah! yeah! yeah!
Take me alive
Call me undercover when you bake your bread
Wanna be your lover, wanna make your bed

Jane you say its all over for you and me
Theres a time for love and a time for letting it be baby
Jane youre playin a game
Called hard to get by its real name
Makin believe that you still dont feel the same
Jane youre playin a game you never can win girl
Youre stayin away just so Ill ask you where youve been baby
Like a cat and a mouse (cat and a mouse)
From door to door and house to house
Dont you pretend you dont know what Im talkin about
Were all those nights we spent together (hey hey)
Only because you didnt know better
Oh jane youre playin a game, youre playin a game, playin a game
Jane youre playin a game of hide and go seek

Oh jane thats a game on me

Carry Me Away
Patrick simmons / jeffrey baxter / michael mcdonald
There was a place in east st. louis
It was in nineteen fifty nine
When they played they filled the streets with music
That lonely blue note music
That takes your cares away, far away
They packed the place when the band was playin
To get some joy from a smoke filled room
Through that door you could see the bodies swayin
The blue note band was playin
Some lonely blue note song, all night long
Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away
Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away
No place Id rather stay
If you should ever make it to st. louis
On some hot and lonely night
If you listen you can hear that blue note music
They fill the streets with music
It carries you away, far away
Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away
Oh, it carried me away, oh, carried me away
No place Id rather stay

Playin In The Band
Some folks trust to reason others trust to might,
I dont trust to nothin, but I know it comes out right.
Say it once again now, whoa, I hope youll understand
When its done and over, lord, a man is just a man.
Playin, playin in the band. daybreak, daybreak on the land.
Some folks look for answers others look for fights,
Some folks up in treetops just a looking for their kites.
Whoa, I can tell your future just look whats in your hand,
But I cant stop for nothin Im just playing in the band.
Playin, playin in the band. daybreak, daybreak on the land.
Standin on a tower world at my command
You just keep a turnin while Im playing in the band.
And if a man among you got no sin upon his hand
Let him cast a stone at me for playing in the band.
Playin, playin in the band. daybreak, daybreak on the land.

Second Hand Devotion
Here you go playin' with my heart again-
Practicin' your second hand devotion-
Stirrin' me into a lovin' hope again-
You're playin' with my emotion;
Why'd you have to come back anyway?
Messin' with my wore out heart?
Drivin' hope into my lonely soul-
Only-to take it all apart;
You say and do all kinds of lovin' things-
But then you begin to sorta' wear thin-
Actin' bored and our loved you ignore-
And im wonderin' just where your heart has been;
Here you go playin' with my heart again-
Practicin' your second hand devotion-
Stirrin' me into a lovin' hope again-
You're playin' with my emotion;
You're a tried and true Casanova ya know-
A gigalo of the love starved and those alone-
Playin' all of us fast and loose now-
Who invited you back into my heart and home?
'Cause home is where my heart truly is-
And ya know what you're feelin' ain't true-
So why don't ya just go-'cause ya know-
That my world is better without you;
Here ya go playin' with my heart again-
Practicin' your second hand devotion-
Stirrin' me into lovin' hope again-
You're playin with my emotion;

Prodigy Lover
Something is different
Something has changed
You write me your letters
But they're not the same
Prodigy lover
Playin' the keyboards
Drawin' the music from me
Uncomprehending, I'm stupified
Cuz I wrote the rulebook you can't abide
Over and over, checkin' the airwaves
Drawin' the music from me
You'd say,

Havin A Party
(s. cooke)
Producer: martyn ware
Album: non-album track
B-side of the two people single
Were havin a party,
Everybodys swingin,
Dancin to the music on the radio,
Champagne is in the icebox,
And the popcorns on the table,
And me and my baby,
Are out here on the floor.
So listen mister dj,
Keep those records playin,
cause Im a-havin such a good time,
cause Im dancin with my baby.
And everybodys swingin,
Jackies doin that twist now,
If youll take requests,
Then Ive got a few for you,
Play that song called soul twist
And what about the one by that fellow I knew,
And dont forget the mashed potato,
No other song will do.
Yeah listen, mr. dj,
Just keep those records playin,
cause Im a-havin such a good time,
Dancin with my baby.
Were havin a party,
Everybodys swingin,
Dancin to the music,
On the radio.
Havin a party,
Everybodys swingin,
Dancin to the music,
On the radio,
Well one more time.
Were havin a party (havin a party),
Everybodys swingin (everybodys swingin),
Dancin to the music(dancin to the music),
On the radio (on the radio)
Champagnes in the icebox (havin a party),
Popcorns on the table (everybodys swingin),
Me and my baby (dancin to the music),
Out here on the floor (on the radio),
Oh now everybody.
Everybodys swingin (everybodys swingin),
Dancin to the music (dancin to the music),

Just Playin Possum
(alan jackson/jim mcbride/gary overton)
I parked my car round back
Ive got the shades pulled down
I told everybody including my mama
I was leaving town
But Ive been right here
Since youve been gone
Belly-up at the bottom of a bottle
Listening to george jones
And just playin possum
Laying low
Ive got hundred watts of hurtin
Coming through the speakers of my stereo
Dont want to see nobody
Nowhere I want to go
Im just playin possum
And laying low
Im gonna hide my heart
And be a love recluse
Oh I could cry on my best friends shoulder
But there aint no use
I need an expert on
The pain Im going through
So Ill keep george on the old turntable
til Im over you
And just playin possum
Laying low
Ive got hundred watts of hurtin
Coming through the speakers of my stereo
Dont want to see nobody
Nowhere I want to go
Im just playin possum
And laying low
Hes playin possum
And hes laying low

Thank God For The Radio
(max d. barnes/robert john jones)
On the wrong end of the highway
When the long night has no end
When theres no one there beside me
til I hold you once again
Thank God for the radio
When Im on the road
When Im far from home
And feelin blue
Thank God for the radio
Playin all night long
Playin all the songs
That mean so much to me and you
Theres a song that we first danced to
And theres a song they played the night we met
And theres a song we first made love to
Thats a song Ill never forget
Thank God for the radio
When Im on the road
When Im far from home
And feelin blue
Thank God for the radio
Playin all night long
Playin all the songs
That mean so much to me and you
Playin all the songs
That mean so much to me and you

All i got to my name.
All I got to my name,
Is my music
It's all i ever am
and all i will be
you can't take it away
it's all i got to my name
My music is my life
my music is my love
my music is my fire on a cold day
my music is my castle where i stay all the day
my music is home
where i feel safe
It's all I got to my name
don't you dare take it away
it's what makes me me and not you
My music is my best friend
my music is my nae
it's all I own that matters to me
My music is all i got to my name
no family
no friends
all i need is my music
I need nothing but my music
it's what I do all the day
all I can say
My music My music

Played Yourself
All you do is tell me lies
Cant you see I'm not suprised
That you think that im a fool
Hey
'Cause you think that no one sees
And you think you're playin' me
I just think that you're confused
you're playin' you baby
(chorus)
You didnt think that i would catch you
you didnt know how i knew
you didnt think your girl would tell
on you
you played yourself that way
Repeat
She was your best friend in your eyes
But she told me the flip side
Guess she wanted in my life
If you've seen her plan
You would know i was the man
That she desired to have
You were too blind to see
I waited
Long enough for you to
throw you cards
You played it
But playin' didnt get you very far

Mr Bluesman
(sambora)
He was a man
A ramblin man he was yes he was
Guitar in hand
His home was on the road and thats where he was
Hes seen a thousand roads
Hes been a million miles
And when hed bend a note
A tear would fill my eyes
Where are you playin
Mr. bluesman
Mr. bluesman
Town to town
Honkytonks and dives all look the same
His gipsy heart keeps his shadow ridin through the rain
A graveyard full of scars
His life will paint his songs
cause when youre on the road
Theres nowhere you belong
Youre just alone
Where are you playin
Mr. bluesman
Mr. bluesman
Hes seen a thousand roads
Hes been a million miles
And when hed bend a note
A tear would fill my eyes
Where are you playin
Mr. bluesman
Mr. bluesman
Ive paid some dues
Now I make my living as a music man
I play the blues
I guess the blues must be just what I am
A graveyard full of scars
His life will paint his songs
cause when youre on the road
Theres nowhere you belong
Youre just alone
Where are you playin
Mr. bluesman
Mr. bluesman
Hes seen a thousand roads
Hes been a million miles
And when hed bend a note
A tear would fill my eyes
Where are you playin

Mountain Music
Words and music by randy owen
Chorus:
Oh, play me some mountain music, like grandma and grandpa used to play.
Then Ill float on down the river to a cajun hideaway
Drift away like tom sawyer, ride a raft with ol huck finn.
Take a nap like rip van winkle, daze dreamin again.
Chorus
Swim across the river, just to prove that Im a man.
Spend the day bein lazy, just bein natures friend.
Climb a long tall hickry. bend it over, skinnin cats.
Playin baseball with chert rocks, usin sawmill slabs for bats.
Bridge:
Play some back-home, come-on music that comes from the heart.
Play something with lots of feelin, cause thats where music has to start
Oh, play me some mountain music, like grandma and grandpa used to play.
Then Ill float on down the river to a cajun hideaway, hey hey.
