When You Awake
Ollie told me Im a fool. so i
Walked on down the road a mile, went to the house that brings a smile
Sat upon my grandpas knee, and what do you think he said to me?
(chorus:)
When you awake you will remember evrything, you will be
Hangin on a string from your... when you believe, you will relieve the only
Soul
That you were born with to grow old and never know
Ollie showed me the fork in the road.
You can take to the left or go straight to the right,
Use your days and save your nights,
Be careful where you step, and watch wha-cha eat,
Sleep with the light on and you got it beat.
(repeat chorus)
Ollie warned me its a mean old world,
The street dont greet ya, yes, its true;
But what am I supposed to do:
Read the writing on the wall,
I heard itwhen I was very small.
(repeat chorus)
Wash my hand in lye water, I got a date with the
Captains daughter. you can go and tell your brother. we sure gonna
Love one another, oh! you
May be right and ya might be wrong, I aint gonna worry all day long.
Snows gonna come and the frost gonna bite, my old car froze
Up last night. aint no reason to hang your head I could wake up in the
Mornin dead. oh! and
If I thought it would do any good, Id stand on the rock where moses stood.

Let er Rip
I can tell theres something you dont wanna tell me
Its killing you cause the words are hard to find
I know you want to break it to me gently
Well sweet baby say whats on your mind
Chorus:
Let er rip, let it fly
Come on baby, say it, do you think Im gonna cry
I aint about to bawl, and I aint gonna die
So if youre gonna say goodbye, dont take all day and night
Let er rip, let it fly
Why the drama, we dont have to drag out this situation
It wasnt you, it wasnt me, sometimes the chemistry dont ignite
There aint no rings, no mortgage, there aint any complications
Its just a hyphenated word, get it out, Im sure Ill be alright
Repeat chorus
It aint no big deal, it aint no great loss
You and I are on the same train of thought
So you dont have to tell me where to get off
Maybe I misunderstood you, if youre leaving, baby would you

So if youre gonna say goodbye, dont take all day and night
Let er rip, let it fly

Platinum Blonde Life
I'm closing all the curtains
So don't you even bother
And I'm calling out the murder
But I'm underneath the covers
But who's fooling who
With this mood like a train
Watch me roll over
Get out of my way
[Chorus:]
There's a knock on my door
But I'm not gonna open it
I'm gonna close my eyes
And maybe it will go away
I want a platinum blonde life
So I keep bleaching out the colors
I try to do what I oughta
But never drink enough water
Where did my lover go?
I really wish he could stay
I feel it's empty as a widow
I'm gonna sleep it all away
[Repeat chorus]
I'm gonna sleep all trough the day
I'm gonna asleep my life away
I'm gonna sleep all through the day
I'm gonna sleep myself away
I'm gonna close my eyes and maybe it'll go away

What It Takes
I wanna walk
To no particular destination
I wanna talk
When I got the inclination
I wanna move
When I got the locomotion
Im gonna do just what it takes
To keep this smile on my face
I wanna drive my car
Wherever theyre driving faster
I wanna sail the ship
As long as I can be the master
I wanna ride the rails
On my own roller coaster
Im gonna do just what it takes
To keep this smile on my face
(chorus)
I was born to be this way
Never save for a rainy day
I just like to make it my own way
I wanna be the first to say
Dont wanna work real hard
If it means that I aint livin? br> dont wanna go through life
If theres no room for gettin? br> dont wanna stand here long
If it just means Im a waiting
Im gonna do just what it takes
To keep this smile on my face
(repeat chorus)
Dont wanna change my ways
If there aint no good reason
Dont wanna change my mind
Without any rhyme or reason
Dont wanna be one way
I got to change like a season
Im gonna do what it takes
To keep this smile on my face
Im gonna do what it takes
To keep this smile on my face

Outta Hell In My Dodge
(randall hall, johnny van-zant, ed king, robert johnson)
Five a.m. in the mornin, whiskey still runnin through my head
I could get out of bed and maybe Ill just have another cigarette
As long as I can remember seems all Ive ever done is work
The boss is a jerk and I aint payin the rent
Spent my whole life shovelin dirt
(chorus)
Im gonna get outta hell in my dodge
Cant take this anymore
Gonna go downtown pick up my girl
There aint nothin worth waitin for
Take the road less traveled
Spend my life behind the wheel
Gonna get outta hell in my dodge
Freedom made out of steel
Theres a knock on the door from the sheriff
Askin me where I was last night
Seems somebody lookin a lot like me
Had takin up with his wife
He said son if I ever catch him
Theres gonna be some hell to pay
Hell be gone for good if I see him again
cause I just might blow him away
(repeat chorus)
Whats a poor man supposed to do
Stuck in the middle and trapped by the blues
Baby, Im sick of these blues
(chorus)
Im gonna get outta hell in my dodge
Cant take this anymore
Gonna go downtown pick up my girl
There aint nothin worth waitin for
Well I dont care if Im wrong or right
Gotta split this town tonight
Gonna get outta hell in my dodge
Live my life behind the wheel
Im gonna get outta hell in my dodge
My freedom made out of steel

Deeper in love with you
Im not the kind of guy
Who gets swept away
So heres what Im gonna do
Im gonna give you this heart of mine
But thats where I draw the line
Chorus:
Im only gonna give you everything
Take it a mile beyond the end of the road
Im gonna love you one day past forever
But thats as far as it goes
I know it may not sound like much
But baby, make no mistake
Im gonna treat you with more tenderness
Than any one woman can take
Im gonna make all your dreams come true
But after that, baby, Im through

Youve got your limits, Ive got mine
Im only gonna go the distance
Time after time

Better Life
Friday night and the moon is high
I'm wide-awake just watchin' you sleep
And I promise you you're gonna have
More than just the things that you need
We ain't got much now, We're just startin' out
But I know somehow paradise is comin'
Chorus:
Someday baby, You and I are gonna be the ones
Good luck's gonna shine
Someday baby you and I are gonna be the ones
So hold on
We're headed for a better life
Oh now there's a place for you and me
Where we can dream as big as the sky
I know it's hard to see it now
But baby someday we're gonna fly
This road we're on, you know it might be long
But my faith is strong
It's all that really matters
(REPEAT CHORUS)
So hold on, hold on
C'mon baby, hold on
Yeah, we're gonna have it all
And ooh

Hey we're gonna leave this all behind us baby, wait and see

I Aint Goin Down
Im gonna hold on--
cause what I believe in is so strong
No matter how long, no one
Can tell me Im wrong--i aint goin down
I had a baby at fifteen--
Daddy never did forgive me
I never heard from the guy again
I had to drop outta high school--
Everybody treated me so cruel
But I didnt give in and giver her away
[repeat chorus]
Her smile got me through the day--
And every night Id pray
I could give her enough
At night Id lie awake and cry--
Hopin wed get by
cause you cant live on love
I worked night and day to keep us goin
Through the sweat and tears
Without her knowin
It was worth it just to watch her grow
Oh, oh, at least I was able to hold her
Whenever she needed my shoulder
Im so glad I never let her go
[repeat chorus]
Her smile got me through the years--
Dried away the tears
And filled me with hope
At night Id lie awake and cry--
Prayed we would get by
And for the courage to cope
Oh, oh, oh
[instrumental solo]
Her smile got me through the day--
And every night Id pray
I could give her enough

If you were coffee in the morning
Well Id drink that whole pot
Cause you got everything all them others do not

But you got a heart of gold through and through
And when it comes to loving
All that kissing and hugging

With just one guy by my side

But hon youre different from the rest

Tell me whos gonna be there when

Kiss Your Freedom Goodbye

Our bank aint been held-up since 1932
Our doors are always unlocked
But not for long Im tellin you

cause I know times are gonna change
I know life will never be the same
I see please tell me it aint so
Theyre all movin in surroundin me
No place left to go
My oh my you can kiss your freedom goodbye
Used to have a small town drugstore
Where old men liked to meet
That stores gone out of business
Theyre sellin drugs out in the streets
The new kids like to spray paint
Theyve got a lot to say
Sure do have a way with words
Taught me a few today

cause I know times are gonna change
I know life will never be the same
I see small town folks like me
Are gonna have to change the way we do things cause eventually

So dont worry,

You remember back in the day when,
We thought it was special,
When we always stayed down,
No matter where we went youd stay in touch,

Now you probably aint feelin much,
Like things aint really been the way they used to be,
And you say it seems like I changed,
But Im still the same.
