Up And Down
Do you have to be so hard to get
Especially with those emerald eyes
You might have been a neon lover
But you didn't have to advertise
Well come on, well come on
You might have been a crackshot shooter
Hung up on your figurine
Under the cold and darkly sky
You're the only light I've seen
CHORUS
Well come on, well come on
And it happens everytime
I'm still hanging on the line
Don't want to go up and down
You don't have to be so touch
I'll tell you when I've had enough
You don't have to reek with charm
You won't have to twist my arm
Well come on, well come on
CHORUS

Jeanny Needs A Shooter
I was born down by the river
Where the dirty river flows
And the cool wind cut through me
It cut right through my clothes
And the anger and the yearning
Like fever in my veins
Set the fire burning
She came down from knightstown
With her hands hard from the line
From the first time I laid eyes on her
I knew that shes be mine
Her father was a lawman
He swore hed shoot me dead
cause he knew I wanted jeannie
And Id have her like Id said
Jeannie needs a shooter, shooter like me
Jeannie needs a shooter
Jeannie needs a shooter, shooter on her side
Jeannie needs a shooter
Jeannie needs a shooter
Jeannie needs a shooter
We met down by the river
On the final day in may
And when I leaned down to kiss her
She did not turn away
I drew out all my money
And together we did vow
To meet that very evening
And to get away somehow
Jeannie needs a shooter, shooter like me
Jeannie needs a shooter
Jeannie needs a shooter, shooter on her side
Jeannie needs a shooter
Jeannie needs a shooter
Jeannie needs a shooter
The night was cold and rainy
Down by the borderline
I was riding hard to meet her
When a shot rang out behind
As I lay there in the darkness
With a pistol by my side
Jeannie and her father
Rode off into the night
Jeannie needs a shooter

Why (Are We Still Friends)
We do almost everything that lovers do,
and that's why it's hard just to be friends with you.
Everytime your heart is broken by the fool,
I want you to know that it hurts me too.
It's hard to wipe your tears away.
I know and that you should be with me.
Now tell me why..
Chorus:
Why, why are we still friends,
when everything says we should be more than we are?
and tell me why,
everytime I find someone that I like,
we end up just being friends.
I would hate for you to find somebody new,
Who you really love, cause it would mean losing you.
But am I a fool girl not to see,
if I'm always scared I'll lose you anyway.
Somehow somewhere I've got to choose.
No matter if it's win or lose.
Now tell me..
(Chorus)
I don't wanna be like your brother,
I don't wanna be your best friend.
I only wanna be your lover.
When will this end?
If i told you that I wnat to be in your life,
then you could be the woman in mine.
Now tell me
(Chorus x2

Everytime You Cry
J. spinks
Im not the one to tell you what clothes to wear
Im not the one who talks about your hair
Im not the one to show you how I feel inside
Im not the one to say how much I care
(chorus)
Everytime you cry I cry just a little bit
-cry just a little bit
When you say goodbye, I die just a little bit
-cry just a little bit more
I know its late, I guess I should have called today
I know youre tired of waiting by the phone
I know you say-you just dont know how long youll wait
I know that you cant live your life alone
(chorus)
In a world where you think theres no one but you
But everytime you need someone to dry your eyes
You call my name and know that Ill be there

Living Against The River
(j.p. maunick)
In the early morning light you step into the cold
Your curses freeze mid air, the bus is late
Youve got to get to work on time, your job is on the line
Soon youll start again, the same routine
Deep inside your mind, the dreamers dream youll find
As the day is long, it keeps you moving on
Trying to stay ahead as best you can
Sweep away the notion of a revolution
Do it for yourself
Chorus:
(theres no stoppin)
(living against the river)
Do what you do what you do
(got to keep pushing)
(when youre living against the river)
Do what you do what you do
As the light begins to fade and youre heading back for home
Your head is hanging low, youre feeling blue
From the corner of your eyes, under neon lights you see
The old man in the snow with worn out shoes
Sweep away the notion of a revolution
Do it for yourself
Chorus
Repeat (fade)

Me Touch Myself
As I awake this lonely mornin'
I do thank God that U were born
And I picture us on furry floors
And I like it so me touch myself
I prayed that I could have U all 2 myself
So U came 4 me and no one else
Now my heart beats wild 4 U I melt
I want U so me touch myself
Hallelujah
CHORUS:
Me touch myself, me touch myself
Until U and I can truly melt
Every morning me touch myself
This power that U have is unexplainable
If I could live without U honey - debatable
I'm not used 2 this feeling of unstable
Come and get me before me touch myself
CHORUS
Like ice I will become until U come 4 me
No one ever will warm me, I'll be cold as can be
I need the pictures only U and I can see
I need U so me touch myself
I bleed 4 U and me touch myself
U planted the seed, now me touch myself
It's a shame indeed, now me touch myself
Me touch myself
CHORUS
(CHORUS)
I.. I.. I will finally free
Come and get me and U'll see
I'll be like others never be
Ooh wee, baby, U make me touch myself
Oh baby, me touch myself
Me touch myself {repeat 2 fade

Chorus:
I keep forgettin' we're not in love anymore
I keep forgettin' things will never be the same again
I keep forgettin' how you made that so clear
I keep forgettin'
Everytime you're near
Everytime i see you smile
Hear your "hello"
Saying you can only stay a while
Hey, i know that it's hard for you
To say the things that we both know are true
But tell me how come (i)
Chorus:
Everytime i hear
How you never want to live a lie
How it's gone to far
And you don't have to tell me why
Why you're gone and the game is through
If this is what's real, if this is what's true
Tell me how come (i)

Don't say that, don't say that, don't say that
I know you're not mine anymore-anyway-anytime

I Want To Come Over
i know you're home
you left your light on
you know i'm here
the night is thin
i know your alone
i watched the car leave
your lover is gone
let me in
CHORUS:
open your back door
i just need to touch you once more
i want to come over
to hell with the consequence
you told me you love me
that's all i believe
i want to come over
it's a need i can't explain
to see you again
i want to come over
i know your friend
you told her about me
she filled you with fear
some kind of sin
how can you turn
denying the fire
lover i burn
let me in
CHORUS
i know you're confused
i know that your shaken
you think we'll be lost
once we begin
i know your weak
i know that you want me
lover don't speak

Two Hearts
(Vince Gill / Leslie Satcher)
There's a man drinkin' whiskey in a barroom
He's nursin' a broken heart
There's a woman at a table
With her own brand of misery
Cryin' in the dark.
Chorus:
Will two hearts make on tonight
Will somebody lost fond someone who's lost
Will strangers info comfort
In the cold neon light
Will two hearts make one tonight.
Oh, there's just a waitress between them
They're so close to finding their dreams
They're just one dance away
From easing the pain
Of coming apart at the seams.
Chorus:
Will two hearts make on tonight
Will somebody lost fond someone who's lost
Will strangers info comfort
In the cold neon light
Will two hearts make one tonight.

My Own Best Friend
Im beginning to like you
But, you know that aint right
cause youll just twist and twist and twist
Till Im all crooked inside
Then youll take all you gave me
Like it never was there
And I think that I might, no! I know
Yes, I will help you there
cause ...
Chorus
Ive done it before
And Id do it again
cause its the only time
That makes me feel like im
My own best friend
Im a victim of friction I just got too close to see
Yeah, we sparked in the dark and God hung a light on me
And the lamp gets real heavy and it hangs from my heart
And it comes, and it goes
Till I cant tell the difference apart
But ...

So many people say
Itll never work out that way
You cant stand the heat
While youre watching your heart
Just melt away in the basement
On a rainy day

Dont ask me where, please
They check in, they check out

And she makes your bed slow
And she speaks, of the sheets that dont fit
But you know that she knows

When You Love Me
Sometimes I feel like I never quite fit in
Like I'm always a little out of place
It's hard to be everything to everyone
There's so many roles I have to play
Sometimes I'm just barely hanging on
Seems like I'm always fighting to be strong
To find somewhere that I belong
[Chorus:]
When you love me every part of me feels
Like I'm right where I'm meant to be
When you touch me you reach through to
My soul to the truest place in me
Baby in your arms I'm free
To just be a woman
I can't believe how beautiful I feel
There is nothing here to hide
I'm unafraid and so completely real
Oh and never more alive
This life can be so hard to understand
But your eyes oh they see me as I am
And you take me as I am
[Chorus]
Baby hold me close never let me go
Never let me go

To just be a woman

First Time
When I look at you
Baby I'm amazed after we've been through
All that I can say is there is no perfect plan and no finish line
We just learn to fall and get back dark inside
Didn't think we make it so glad
We didn't break up now we're good together and stronger than before
[Chorus:]
It's not complicated
And I wanna celebrate it
Cause we did it like a first time
When you walk into the room man
I can't believe we made it
When all around this love is fading
When you look into my eyes
It feels like a first time again
We stood out on the bridge
And everywhere in between
Pushed it to the edge
Ain't never lost your faith
You proved that we were strong
And I'm glad you did
There's something that I can't believe I couldn't miss
We don't have to try hard now that we've come ?? where just living
But on the other side of this
[Chorus]
You wanna know but now
I do it all again
If they would leave me too
All that I have is you
Oh
Do....
Didn't think we make it so glad
We didn't break up now we're good together and stronger than before

Special Girl
Into each life a little sunlight wants to shine
Let me tell you fortune life that once was mine
Chorus:
She was a special girl and she meant the world to me and I gave her everything
When I found her, Id been looking everywhere
And when I lost her, I was lost beyond despair

Dreams are hard to touch, could it be I love her too much

Bottom line is she was fine in every way
And its not with hesitation that I say

Gettin Hard
Found me golden angel
Gonna do me for a song
Love me till tomorrow
Who knows if shell be gone
For once I tried to keep her
I guess that I was wrong
She just wants some money
To line her silver tongue
(pre-chorus)
And when the animal that lives inside you calls
When you cannot feed the hunger
Then the hammer falls
(chorus)
Gettin hard
Hard to live with
Somethings gotta give
Try to make a living
Overworked and underpaid
Slaving so one day
I can get away
Man looks at me for answers
Poor boy take the blame
Seein it through the boss mans eyes
We all must look the same

To get back into your heart

Didn't We Almost Have It All
Remember when we held on in the rain
The night we almost lost it
Once again we can take the night into tomorrow
Living on feelings
Touching you I feel it all again
Chorus:
Didn't we almost have it all
When love was all we had worth giving?
The ride with you was worth the fall my friend
Loving you makes life worth living
Didn't we almost have it all
The night we held on till the morning
You know you'll never love that way again
Didn't we almost have it all
The way you used to touch me felt so fine
We kept our hearts together down the line
A moment in the soul can last forever
Comfort and keep us
Help me bring the feeling back again
chorus
Didn't we have the beat of times
When love was young and new?
Couldn't we reach inside and find
The world of me and you?
We'll never lose it again
Cause once you know what love is
You never let it end

Didn't we almost have it all

Wrote A Song For Everyone
Met myself a comin' county welfare line.

All i want, all i want is to write myself a tune.

Wrote a song for ev'ryone,
Wrote a song for truth.
Wrote a song for ev'ryone
And i couldn't even talk to you.
Got myself arrested, wound me up in jail.
Richmond 'bout to blow up, communication failed.
If you see the answer, now's the time to say.
All i want, all i want is to get you down to pray.

The Eleventh Hour
[verse]
Trace the shape of my heart
Till it becomes more familiar
To your eyes
I've been lost without you
Cold without your love
It's taken days and nights
To make me realize

Rescue me from hanging on this line
I won't give up on giving you
The chance to blow my mind
Let the eleventh hour quickly
Pass me by
I'll find you when I think
I'm out of time

Take the place of my heart
Till I become a stranger to my life
I've been down without you
Wrong without your love
In time will I be what
You're thinking of

Cold without your love

You Better You Bet
You better you better you bet.
I call you on the telephone my
Voice too rough with cigarettes.
I sometimes think I should just go home
But Im dealing with a memory that never forgets
I love to hear you say my name
Especially when you say yes
I got your body right now on my mind
And I drunk myself blind to the sound of old t-rex
To the sound of old t-rex and whos next
Chorus:
When I say I love you you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I need you you say you better
You better you better you bet
You better bet your life
Or love will cut you like a knife
I want those feeble minded axes overthrown
Im not into your passport picture I just like your nose
You welcome me with open arms and open legs
I know only fools have needs but this one never begs
I dont really mind how much you love me
A little is really alright
When you say
Come over and spend the night
Tonight
Tonight
Chorus: (as above)
I lay on the bed with you
We could make some book of records
Your dog keeps licking my nose
And chewing up all those letters
Saying you better
You better bet your life
You better love me, all the time now
You better shove me back into line now
You better love me, all the time now
You better shove me back into line now.
I showed up late one night
With a neon light for a visa
But knowing Im so eager to fight
Cant make letting me in any easier
I know that I been wearing crazy clothes
And I look pretty crappy sometime
But my body feels so good
And I still sing a razor line everytime.
And when it comes to all night living
I know what Im giving
Ive got it all down to a tee
And its free.
