Pop A Top
(chorus)
Pop a top again
Ive just got time for one more round
Set em up my friend
Then Ill be gone
And you can let some other fool sit down
Ild like for you to listen to
A joke I heard today
From a woman who
Said she was through
And calmly walked away
I tried to smile
And did awhile
But it felt so out of place
Did you ever hear of a clown with teardrops
Streamin down his face
(chorus)
Home for me is misery
And here Im wastin time
cause a row of fools
On a row of stools
Is not whats on my mind
But then you see
Her leaving me
Is not what I prefer
So its either here just drinkin beer
Or home remembering her
(chorus)

Don't Let Her Get Away
(Vince Gill / Al Anderson)
There's nothin' like the feelin'
When you finally find someone
You're wastin' your time
Thinkin' the whole thing through
If you take her for granted
Man, it's gonna come undone
Don't wait another minute
'Cause she's in love with you.
Chorus:
Don't let her get away.
Don't let her get away.
Don't let her get away.
Well, every gun town would love
To be in your shoes
They've never seen a woman
Ever look so fine
They're all waitin' for the chance
To walk all over you
Son I'd have to tell
I'd be the first in line.
Chorus:
Don't let her get away.
Don't let her get away.
Don't let her get away.
Any fool can see you've got it made
A love like this don't come around everyday.

Dont Ask Me No Questions
(gary rossington - ronnie vanzant)
Well everytime that I come home nobody wants to let me be
It seems that all the friends I got just got to come interrogate me
Well, I appreciate your feelings and I dont want to pass you by
But I dont ask you about your business, dont ask me about mine
Well its true I love the money and I love my brand new car
I like drinkin the best of whiskey and playing in a honky tonk bar
But when I come off the road, well I just got to have my time
cause I got to find a break in this action, else Im gonna lose my mind
(chorus)
So, dont ask me no questions
And I wont tell you no lies
So, dont ask me about my business
And I wont tell you goodbye
Thats right
Well, whats your favorite color and do you dig the brothers, is drivin me up a wall
And everytime I think I can sleep, some fool has got to call
Well dont you think that when I come home, I just want a little peace of mind
If you want to talk about the business buddy, youre just wastin time
(chorus)
I said dont ask no stupid questions and I wont send you away
If you want to talk fishin, well I guess thatll be ok

No Place Like Home
=========================================================================
There's my easy chair, just sitting there
I've spent a lot of time
Thinking of this perfect love
I know is yours and mine
Oh how I love that old picture on the wall
Of you and me and the kids
My most favorite times in life I've spent
Right here where we've lived
Chorus:
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
It just hit me as I was leaving
There's no place like home
From the bedroom I smell perfume
My favorite kind you wore
And it brings back memories of all those nights
Behind our bedroom door
The saddest thing I think I've ever seen
Was my closet all cleaned out
It's sad to think that one must leave
Cause we can't work things out
Chorus
So baby, say that I can stay, for just a day or so
Then maybe I can change your mind and I won't have to go
Just look into these baby blues
And tell me it's okay
I love that smile, it drives me wild
No love won't die today
Chorus

Broadway
Chorus:
Broadway is dark tonight
A little bit weaker than you used to be
Broadway is dark tonight
See the young man sitting in the old man's bar waiting for his turn to die
The cowboy kills the rockstar
And Friday night's gone to far
The dim lights hides the years
On all the faded girls
Forgotten but not gone
You drink it off your mind
You talk about the world
Like it's someplace that you've been
You see you'd love to run home
But you know you ain't got one
And you're livin' in a world
That your best forgotten around here
chorus
You choke down all your anger
Forgot your only son
You pray to statues when you sober up for fun
Your anger don't impress me
The world slapped in your face
It always rains like hell on the losers day parade
You see you'd love to run home
But you know you ain't got one
Cause' your livin' in a world that you're
best forgotten
And when you're thinkin' you're a joke
And nobody's gonna listen
To the one small point
I know they been missin' round here
chorus
You see you'd love to run home
But you know you ain't got one
'Cause your livin' in a world
That your best forgotten
And if you're thinkin' you're a joke
Do you think they'll listen
To the one small point
I know they been missin' round here

What Kind Of Fool
Written: stock waterman, kylie minogue
Intro:
What kind of fool do you take me for
(do you take me for, do you take me for)
(but i heard all that before)
1a:
I don't wanna hear your reasons
I'm not giving you another chance
In my kindness you saw weakness
Time for me to make a stand
1b:
Whenever i hear your music
Singing the same old tune
You're so sure that i can't refuse it
But don't you speak too soon
Chorus:
What kind of fool do you take me for
Don't wanna see your face no more
You can say you'll be true, i can trust in you
But i heard all that before
2:
Remember how i used to need you
But baby you were never there
There was a time when i believed you
But now i know you didn't care
Don't wanna hear your hard-luck story
It's the same time after time
It's too late to say you're sorry
You'll never change wrong to right
Chorus:
Chorus2:
What kind of fool do you take me for
No-one on earth could give you more
You would change white to black
If i took you back
But i heard all that before
What kind of fool, what kind of fool

Believed you, believed you)

Smart Woman
Smart woman (in a real short skirt)
By: jimmy buffett, marshall chapman
1988
This song is about being in my 40's in the 80's. it seems i'm learing more than i'm forgetting.
-- spoken:
"so i told her, ooh you got money of your own? well, that gives me the urge to merge."
Bimbo limbo is where i've been
I know you know that it's wearing me thin
The times are changing, and it's about time
I'm rearrangin' all the guilt in my mind
Chorus:
I'm looking for a smart woman in a real short skirt
Smart woman who knows how to flirt
Smart woman got a mind of her own
Smart woman that'll take me home
Take me home
I'm not your macho kind of guy
But i can be so when i'm feeling shy
Hey, baby, where'd you get your good looks
Ooh, babe, i want to carry your books
Chorus:
I'm looking for a smart woman in a real short skirt
Smart woman who knows how to flirt
Smart woman got a mind of her own
Smart woman that'll take me home
Take me home
Beauty and brains (beauty and brains)
Best of both worlds (best of both worlds)
Think i can change (think i can change)
If you'll be my, be my, be my girl
Chorus:
I'm looking for a smart woman in a real short skirt
Smart woman who knows how to flirt
Smart woman got a mind of her own
Smart woman that'll take me home
Take me home
Chorus:
I'm looking for a smart woman in a real short skirt
Smart woman who knows how to flirt
Smart woman got a mind of her own
Smart woman better take me home
Take me home

The Tracks Of My Tears
People say I'm the life of the party
Cause I tell a joke or two
Although I might be laughing loud and hearty
Deep inside I'm blue
[Chorus:]
So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
Just look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
I need you, need you
Since you left me if you see me with another girl
Seeming like I'm having fun
Although she may be cute she's just a substitute
'Cause you're the permanent one
[Chorus]
Outside, I'm masquerading
Inside, my hope is fading
Just a clown, oh yeah since you put me down
My smile is my make-up I wear since my break-up with you

Just Another Love Song
By dickey betts
(c) 1975 uichappell music inc. and f. r. betts music (bmi)
Transcribed by sam carle
Sit alone, waiting on the morning,
Woman leaving her whole life behind,
Train rolling on, taking mamas baby home,
Noone knows whats going through her mind,
Just another love song Im singing,
And you know people sing them all of the time,
Just another lonesome guitar ringing,
The only difference is this one is mine,
Freedom, lord what a funny word,
We search for it just like some kind of fool,
Woman leaving home, man sits there all alone,
Little child is paying all the dues

You took me runnin up a wrong way street.
When we got there, you said, cant you read ?
I must be blind, but now and then I see
Another number where mine used to be.
Chorus:
You keep on changin your face, like a chameleon.
You keep on changing your face like a chameleon.
I say whats up, and then you say its down.
I see triangles, and you say its round, round, round.
Saw an empty glass; you said its full.
Lord, its so hot, then you come on cool, cool.

Only Us
Only us [x3]
It wasnt in the words that kept sticking in their throats
It wasnt with the angels in their quilted coats
These battered wings still kick up dust
Seduced by the noise and the bright things that glisten
I knew all the time I should shut up and listen
And Im finding my way home from the great escape
{chorus:}
The further on I go, oh the less I know
I can find only us breathing
Only us sleeping
Only us dreaming
Only us
I hear you calling me
Yes I hear you calling me
Home from the great escape
Yes I can read you loud and clear
The further on I go, oh the less I know
Friend or foe, theres only us

Im coming home again, home again
And I hear you calling me home again
I am coming home again
Only us [x8]

Don't
When you walked into my world
I was someone else's girl
Every time you look in my eyes
All that I felt somehow dies
No no no no
Can't you see what you're doing to me
No no no no
[Chorus]
Don't look at me with that smile
Don't act like everything's fine
Stop putting dreams in my head
When I should've thought of him instead
When you say the things you do
It makes me want to be with you
And every time that he kisses me
You are always what I see
No no no no
You make me forget about him
No no no no
[Chorus]
No no no no
Can't you see what you're doing to me
No no no no

The Only Way
(d. pickerill/p. odonoughue)
I wake up at five
Wonder why Im alive
Crawl out bed (good morning)
Leaving the paper unread
Dont think I can take much more
Traffic makes me late
Ive got not time to waste
Chasing the time
Im about to lose my mind
A touch of monday morning blues
Chorus:
I think to myself
Is this the only way
Is this the only way
I think to myself
Is this the only way
Is this the only way
Heading for home
Cold light to see the room
Where Im all alone
I hear the voices say
Get out before its too late

Celeberate Me Home
Home for the holidays,
I believe I've missed each and every face.
Come on and play one easy,
Let's turn on the love lights in the place.
It's time I found myself,
Totally surrounded in your circles.
Oh my friends...
(Chorus)
Please celebrate me home,
Give me a number.
Please celebrate me home,
Play me one more song.
That I'll always remember,
I can recall whenever I.
Find myself too all alone,
I can sing me home.
Uneasy highway,
Traveling where the westerly winds can fly.
Somebody try to tell me,
But the man forgot to tell me why.
I gotta count on being gone...
Come on mama!
Come on daddy!
Hear what you want from me yeah...
I'll be strong and
I'll be weak...

(I can make believe I've never gone)

No one should take advantage of who they are
No man has got it made
If he thinks he does, hes wrong

Every mothers son better hear what I say
Every mothers son will rise and fall someday

Some man got so much money he doesnt worry no more
Or hes got such a pretty woman thatll treat him fine
Well my friend has been a fool
It happens everytime

Only A Fool Would Say That
A world become one
Of salads and sun
Only a fool would say that
A boy with a plan
A natural man
Wearing a white stetson hat
Unhand that gun begone
Theres no one to fire upon
If hes holding it high
Hes telling a lie
Chorus:
I heard it was you
Talkin bout a world
Where all is free
It just couldnt be
And only a fool would say that
The man in the street
Draggin his feet
Dont wanna hear the bad news
Imagine your face
There is his place
Standing inside his brown shoes
You do his nine to five
Drag yourself home half alive
And there on the screen
A man with a dream

Has murder in his eyes
You feel no pain
And youre younger
Then you realize

I Saw A Man And He Danced With His Wife
I was by myself drinkin'
Chilled lonely wine
Then he walked in with some woman
Who's place was once mine
And she wore his ring on her finger
And the band began a song
I'd heard before
[Chorus:]
I saw a man and he danced with his wife
How I wished he was dancing with me
'Cause I remember before
When we danced on this floor
His eyes were only on me
Where did I go wrong
They were playin' our song
While I was cryin' all night long
I kept watchin' as they dance so divine
I kept hopin' kept on lookin'
But I couldn't catch his eye
Oh, then he got up and he saw me
But he just walked right on by
And danced with her
[Chorus]
Where did I go wrong
They were playin' our song
While I was cryin' all night long
Two weeks later
I heard a knock on my door
He's back
Just like all those good time before
Ah, then he kissed me
And he told me
I left her 'cause I love you,
So much more than I knew

I saw a man and he danced with his wife

Conversation's Over
Conversation.. oohh
Did it start with an obsession?
Was the writing on the wall?
I can see through your deception
Through it all
I see clearly now
For too long you've had it your way
For too long I've tiptoed round
Finally we're face to face boy
No drama now
I'll stand my ground
Chorus:
Now the conversation's over
And there's nothing more to say
I've had my time with you
So hear me now
I won't stay
It's my turn to walk away
No point in talking round in circles
Or trying to read between the lines
I saw you dancing with the devil
I'm not blind
Don't sympathise
Cos for too long you've played your own game
For too long I've stood and cried
It's time I changed the combination
I'll be fine
Won't change my mind
Chorus:
Now the conversation's over
And there's nothing more to say
I've had my time with you
So hear me now
I won't stay
It's my turn to walk away
I've found the strength to finally say it
What the walls have heard a thousand times
And I just don't want pain
I know I'll go insane
I've reconnected my mind
Chorus:
Now the conversation's over, yeah
And there's nothing more to say
I've had my time with you
So hear me now
I won't stay (I won't stay)
It's my turn to walk away
Chorus:
Now the conversation's over (it's over yeah)

cause it takes one to really understand
And I watched him try to walk the line
Between whats wrong and right
And knew that fool was gonna fall again
Chorus:
Ah, but the fool Ive been aint nothing like the fool Id be
To keep believin dreams that dont come true
Because, you know, it never was too far from love to make believe
And Ill be leavin, if its all the same to you
Its hard to lead a friend in need of somethin hard to face
cause simple truth aint simple when its sad
And misery loves company, but, lord, its such a waste
To go on throwin good love after bad

Ah, but the fools weve been aint nothin like the fools wed be
