Life Or Love
Life or love
I tried to stay on the straight and narrow
But Ive walked a crooked path
And Ive felt worthy of forgiveness
And deservinheavens wrath
Right on the money and off by a mile
Ahead of my time and way out of style
Chorus:
But Im hangintough, I aint had enough
I aint givinup on life or love
Well I try to stay away from the bottle
But Ive reached out for the glass
I try to pull back on the throttle
But I still run out of gas
Ive been an angel, but never a saint
Hung with the devil, dont nobody faint
Chorus:
cause Im hangintough, I aint had enough
I aint givinup on life or love
Tag:
Yesterdays history, today is a chance
Tomorrow is a mystery, so Im makinplans
Chorus:
To keep hangintough, I aint had enough
I aint givinup on life or love
I keep hangintough, I aint had enough
I aint givinup on life or lovelife or love

He Aint With Me
Calling all these other guys
Im seeing something I didnt before
Is that a new look in your eyes
Now you dont believe that Im asking for more
I saw you walking down the street
With another girl who looks just like me
People always say we look so happy
He took my love but he didnt take me
Chorus
He aint with me he aint with me
He says he loves me but he dont look in my eyes
But Ill take it till its all gone cause
He aint with me but at least Im not alone
You say you laughed with your old girlfriend
Youre doing nothing to encourage the end
I could be charming on long distance too
And if you want Ill make it easier for you
Communication is the key
Interrogation dont work for me
You saw that other guy smiling at me
If you were here I wouldnt act so free
Chorus
He aint with me he aint with me
He says he loves me but he dont look in my eyes
He likes to hold my hand in public
Stranger cant you see he aint with me
He aint with me he aint with me no more
He aint with me he aint with me
Bridge
I guess fate really has my number
Every time you wander away
I reconsider all the time you said youd stay
Chorus
He aint with me he aint with me
He aint with me no more
He likes to hold my hand in public
He aint with me he aint with me
But Ill take it till its all gone cause
He aint with me but at least Im not alone
He aint with me

That Aint Love
You tell me what you think Im feelin, you know why I do what I do
Why should you listen to a word Im sayin, when its already so clear to you
You tell me bout my bad intentions, you doubt the very things I hold true
I can no longer live with your misconceptions, baby all I can say to you, is
Chorus:
That aint love, I believe youve got the wrong emotion
That aint love, at least it doesnt feel like love to me
As long as I say what you wanna hear
Do what you wanna do, be who you want me to be
You think thats love, well baby that aint love to me
Weve got to talk it over sometime, these feelings wont just disappear
Im just gonna keep telling you whats on my mind
Even if its not what you wanna hear
Oooh right now your world and mine are such different places
Through yours I wander lost and confused
And I feel like Im speaking in a different language
And the only words I havent used, are
Chorus
You keep tellin me, you know a place where your life would be better
Youre makin plans long-range
But I dont know how you expect to get there, when you refuse to change
(solo)

Everybodys looking for a meaning
Everybodys doing their own thing
And nobodys solving the problem
Aint nobody helping each other
Some people give into fear

Some of us live for the future
And some of us wonder

Maybe theres enough for everyone
Givin into hope, and into trust
Maybe theres enough for everyone

People hold on
Dont do yourself wrong
People hold on
Weve got to be strong
People hold on
Everybodys getting frustrated
Why should we live with this hatered

So whos gonna give us the answer
Sister and brother
Givin into life, givin into love
Maybe theres enough for everyone

Livin It Up
Livin it up
By: jimmy buffett, josh leo, j.d. souther
1983
He took one last look
Tossed that address book
His odyssey has begun
No time to see sights
Ran all the red lights
Burned all his bridges
Now its love on the run
Chorus:
Livin it up
Is takin all of his time
But he aint givin it up
It suits his temperament fine
Up on the bandstand
Plays for a few fans
Workin for minimum wage
He spots her lookin
His brain is cookin
She takes her seat
At the foot of the stage
Chorus:
Livin it up
Is takin all of his time
But he aint givin it up
It suits his temperament fine
Yeah he loves livin it up
And takin all of his time
But he aint givin it up
It never crosses his mind
Didnt say much, had a soft touch
Knew what felt good in her man
He was the same way and they split the next day
Sang all the way through the yucatan
Chorus:
Livin it up
Is takin all of our time
But we aint givin it up
It never crosses our mind
No no no hes just livin it up
And takin all of his time
But he aint givin her up
She suits his temperament fine
Yeah shes just livin it up
And takin all of his time
But she aint givin him up
It never crosses her mind

Girls It Aint Easy
(ronald dunbar / edith wayne)
Yeah, it aint easy
Girls it aint easy
To keep the man you love satisfied
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy
To keep the one you love by your side
A womans work is never done
Never stops, it goes on and on
You work your fingers to the bone
You gotta be home every time he phones
Sometimes the going gets a little tough
Seems like my best aint good enough
Keeps you losing sleep
Seven days a week, yeah
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy
To keep the man you love satisfied
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy
To keep the one you love by your side
To keep him happy
You must sacrifice
Be ready and willing
To spend lonely nights
Do what you can
Though he seems ungrateful
Love him so true
Even though he seems unfaithful
But when his hope is gone
And life gets him down
Thats when hell say
He needs you around
Hard to live with him
Hard to live without him
It aint easy, no
Oh, yeah, it aint easy
Girls it aint easy
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy
You got to favour him with understanding
When understanding is what he needs
We try hard to give them respect
All that we get is their regret
But when theyre in trouble
They need our love and care
No matter when we gotta be right there
In between the crying
Gotta keep trying
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy, ooh, ooh, ooh
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy, yeah, ooh
It aint easy
Girls it aint easy, no

Aint This The Life
Livin way up now in a penthouse high
Our steaks are rare and our martinis dry
Folks below they say it aint fair
Hell with them, I really dont care
Joie de vivre, mon amie
Aint this the life
Having a party on a big jet plane
I got so drunk that I could feel no pain
Hangin out in acapulco,
Drinkin rum and sniffin co-co
Pretty senorita look this way
Dancing through the night
Everythings alright
Girlfriend and a wife
Aint this the life, aint this the life
Aint this the life, baby, baby, baby . . .
Tropical island in the deep blue sea
The natives are friendly and the lobsters free
Sipping cognac like a french king
Plenty of room, I own the whole thing
Joie de vivre, mon amie
Aint this the life
Think Ill go out now on a shopping spree
Breakfast in new york, dinner in parie
Hangin out with lynn and suzie
Have a massage and a jacuzzi
Climb into bed and see whats on tv
Dancing through the night
Everythings alright
Girlfriend and a wife . . .
Aint this the life, aint this the life
Aint this the life, tell me, tell me, tell me . . .

Love Ain't Nothing But A Four Letter Word
She was waiting alone at the station praying for her train to arrive
Thinking bout her destination, the tattered bag had all she had in life
She turned her back on her family, she turned her back on her friends
She turned her back on a married man when she took off that wedding band
She said, Im giving up, silver clouds have turned to grey
Had enough, theres got to be a better way
Giving up, you know youve gotta walk
Theres some things in life still worth fighting for
Aint no big secret so forget all you heard
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
For some its for better, for some its for worse
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint nothing
This time he said was the last time, last time he said just the same
In your heart you know that theyll be a next time
That your battered bones would have to explain
Givin up, nothings changing but the score
Had enough, every night love turns to war
Give it up, gave it all and wanted more
It aint nothing worth dying for
Its no big secret so forget all you heard
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
For some its a blessing, for some its a curse
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint nothing
Forget your mamas rosary beads to get you through this time of need
You know you gotta cross that line
You take it one day at a time
Had enough, the silver clouds all turning grey
Im heading for a better day
No big secret so forget all you heard
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
For some its for better, for some its for worse
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint nothing (it aint nothing now, baby)
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint nothing (nothing now, baby)
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint nothing (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint nothing...

Aint It Always That Way
I took chance, I took a fall
Waited on love til I could give it my all
Then I let my heart fly
Took a rose to her door
Stood there like a statue just sort of frozen by her presence
But I shyed (not sure of this line...)
Chorus:
Aint it always that way
When you want to believe
Aint it always that way
When you want and you need
Aint it always that way
When you want to rely
Aint it always that way
When you want and you need and you cry
Yes and then I took a space out of time
I dont wanna sound like a thief but the moment was mine and I stole it, it felt right
I took a chance, took a fall
Waited on love until I could give it my all
Then I let my heart fly

And when the band plays hail to the chief
They point the cannon right at you

Lord they dont help themselves
But when the taxman comes to the door
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no millionaires son
It aint me, it aint me
I aint no fortunate son

Ooh, they send you down to war
And when you ask them how much should we give ?
They only answer more! more! more!

My Heart Wont Wander Very Far From You
1st. verse
Well honey dont you worry I dont need no ballroom queen,
Though Ill admit she sure know how to fill a pair of jeans,
And Ill admit now darlin she sure showin me her stuff
But honey it aint nearly enough,
1st. chorus
Cause I aint never seen her patch a pair of ragged britches
Stretch a paycheck til it reaches, scratch my back right where it itches
And I aint never seen that and honey til I do
My heart wont wonder very far from you,
2nd. verse
Now honey you know I honor all the hard times we been through
I never could have made it with anyone but you
And I think I know when a lady is really really tough
But she dont show me nearly enough,
2nd. chorus
Cause I aint never seen her stay up all night with the baby
Calm me down when I get crazy, fix me grits and red eyes gravy
And I aint never seen that and honey til I do
My heart wont wonder very far from you
Last chorus
No I aint never seen her make a six room house a castle
Teach the young ones how to wrastle,
Straighten out my fish and tackle
And I aint seen that and honey til I do
My heart wont wonder very far from you
No I aint never seen that and honey til I do
My heart wont wonder very far from you.

Loves Got Nothing To Prove
Love isnt just
Somethin to try
No act of love
Can satisfy
Youve got to believe
Its live or die
To ask yourself the question
How can love survive?
And if we try
And it dont work out
Like so many people do
Its just a fact of life
No we aint in charge
There aint nothin thats wrong with me
Aint nothin thats wrong with you
Chorus:
Loves got nothin to prove
Its not up to you
Two souls come into a world made
Of time and space
Searchin for the truth
With nothin but love to prove
And find it in the gift of
A moment of grace
Your heart is broken
cause your love was untrue
Youre asking god
Oh why you?
Oh was it crazy
Givin all of you?
You ask yourself the question
What more could I do?

You were a fool who jus believed too much
But in the end the fool, youll come to know
Is not the one who loved

Nowhere
If ever you wondered
If ever you were nervous about it
You gotta know,
I aint never,
Lemme say that again,
I aint never, goin nowhere
Listen to me
Last night I allmost cried when you told me
That you think you love me more than I love you
Sometimes it hurts to carry that burden alone
Lets be clear and get a few things straight
No ones ever gunna take your place in my heart
Nothing can measure the love that i've got for you
Im telling you
When im out in the club at night
You dont have to worry about a thing
Cuz I aint goin nowhere, I aint goin nowhere,
So my heart is telling me that you are the one
that im gon be with for the rest of my life
And I aint goin nowhere
I know you've heard it all before
You dont have to worry no more
Cuz I aint goin nowhere
Baby just trust me
As long as you love me
I aint never goin nowhere
I was lost and abandoned
Searching for the truth
Looking for that missing one
That missing one was you
The road was so tough
But you gave it up
Untill I found you and you made it
Worth the wait and worth the years
Worth the strength and worth the tears
And you dont know the half of it
But baby heres the rest of it
Did you know that your a gift far brighter than the sun?
Did you know that your a blessing, and im the lucky one
Did you know that I could never ask for a better love
Did you know that I would die, before I broke your heart
Did you know that if you left me, my world would fall apart
And never come back together, baby thats for real
So the next time that you tell me, you'll remember this
When im out in the club at night
You dont have to worry about a thing
Cuz I aint goin nowhere, I aint goin nowhere,
So my heart is telling me that you are the one
that im gon be with for the rest of my life
And I aint goin nowhere
I know you've heard it all before
You dont have to worry no more
Cuz I aint goin nowhere
Baby just trust me
As long as you love me
I aint never goin nowhere
When im out in the club at night
You dont have to worry about a thing
Cuz I aint goin nowhere, I aint goin nowhere,
So my heart is telling me that you are the one
that im gon be with for the rest of my life
And I aint goin nowhere
I know you've heard it all before
You dont have to worry no more
Cuz I aint goin nowhere
Baby just trust me
As long as you love me
I aint never goin nowhere

Who have influenced me in my music.
Well now I want to tell you about the women.
And theres lots of them.
But this first one I wanna tell you about,
I admired her for a long time .
First of all, it was because of her songwriting.
I liked the way she always told a story in her songs.
And then in her singing.
I always loved to listen to her sing.
She had a different style, a different quality about it.
Shes so witty, so personable and you know
No matter whether its her singing,
Her songwriting, or her acting,
Ill always be a big fan of dolly parton!
