Tearin Up The Country

Playin a pavilion on the outskirts of town,
Playin where my roller derby rolls.
Just a part time music man, a nobody at the plant,
Im tearin up the country with a song.
Mom and papa told me son, you gotta go to school;
Only way to make the famly proud.
I paid no attention, left my books at home,
Rather play my music real loud.
Tearin up the country with a song.
Tearin up the country with a song.
I paid no attention, left my books at home,
Rather play my music real loud.
Play it loud, now! woo!
Tearin up the country with a song.
Tearin up the country with a song.
I paid no attention, left my books at home,
Rather play my music real loud.
Ran into a dry spell, seemed nowhere to go.
Good luck turned the tide, Im on my way.
I remember loadin big trucks when the summer sun was hot,
You know I could still be there, but Im not.
Tearin up the country with a song.
Tearin up the country with a song.
I remember loadin big trucks when the summer sun was hot,
You know I could still be there, but Im not.
Tearin up the country with a song.
Im tearin up the country with a song.
I remember loadin big trucks when the summer sun was hot,
You know I could still be there, but Im not.

Lovin Touchin Squeezin

You make me weep and wanna die
Just when you said wed try
Lovin, touchin, squeezin each other
When Im alone all by myself
Youre out with someone else
Lovin, touchin, squeezin each other
Youre tearin me apart
Every day, every day

Tearin Out My Heart

First time I saw your face
By your side was the place
That I would wanna be
Sometimes and I dont know why
Love can come or it can pass you by
Now you take all the love you gave to me
(you take it from me)
Youre tearin out my heart
Oh -
Never thought Id see the day
You would throw my love away
And oh...its killing me
One thing youll never know
How it hurts to let you go
As you turn and walk away from me..
(walk away)
Youre tearin out my heart
Feel like I been ripped apart..
Youre tearin out my heart...
Daybreaks I try to be free
But your memory is haunting me
Oh - theres nothing I can do
All alone in the candlelight
I see your face again tonight
And I feel all the emptiness without you
(without you) tearin out my heart
Oh, I feel like I been ripped apart...
Tearin out my heart...
Whoa...my heart

Please Lady Please

Please lady please, do play our song
again, it isn’t over yet,
though I sometimes done you wrong,
those moments, lady, please forget.

I wanna hear our song again,
although you don’t feel close to me;
I’m not like all the other men
from whom you’ve vowed that you’d be free.

I wanna hold you one more time,
and play our song so you’ll recall
the times that you declared that I’m
the man for who you’d always fall.

Country music, old and new,
can never sound as good as tunes
we’ve sung together, me and you,
dawn, day and night, and afternoons.

Please lady, play our song, don’t think
about the bad things I have done;
remember how when we’re in sync
there’s more than two of us––we’re one.


Inspired by Olivia Newton John’s “Please Mister Please”:

In the corner of the bar there stands a jukebox
With the best of country music, old and new
You can hear your five selections for a quarter
And somebody else's songs when your's are through

I got good Kentucky whiskey on the counter
And my friends around to help me ease the pain
'Til some button-pushing cowboy plays that love song
And here I am just missing you again

Please, Mister, please, don't play B-17
It was our song, it was his song, but it's over
Please, Mister, please, if you know what I mean
I don't ever wanna hear that song again

If I had a dime for every time I held you
Though you're far away, you've been so close to me
I could swear I'd be the richest girl in Nashville
Maybe even in the state of Tennessee

But I guess I'd better get myself together
'Cause when you left, you didn't leave too much behind
Just a note that said 'I'm sorry' by your picture
And a song that's weighing heavy on my mind

Please, Mister, please, don't play B-17
It was our song, it was his song, but it's over
Please, Mister, please, if you know what I mean
I don't ever wanna hear that song again

Sad Songs

(billy alessi/bobby alessi)
Its early in the morning
Today Im moving away
Sittin here for the last time
Makes me feel so strange
My life here has ended
Like a pulled up weed
Dont play no sad songs
Theyll make me cry
This situation reminds me
Of when I went away to school
My friends they all called me
And said Ive been made a fool
My boyfriend he left me
For my best friend
Ahh dont play no sad songs
Theyll make me cry
cause sad songs are tearin up my heart again
Loneliness is standing in my path again
I can feel it comin
I can hear it callin out my name
I dont wanna remember
What Im leavin behind
The radio plays a sad song
And brings it on
Loneliness surrounds me
Like clouds bring rain
Ahh dont play no sad songs
Theyll make me cry
cause sad songs are tearin up my heart again
Loneliness is standing in my path again
I can feel it comin
I can hear it callin out my name

What Can I Do

Well I don't know why I feel the way that I do
through all these years, but I still think of you
You're in my dreams,
I have seen the life we should have had
But I'm so glad that the truth is out at last
What can I do with a love like this in my heart?
So what can I do, It's tearin' me apart
So what can I do, What can I do
Why can't you see that it's you I've always loved?
I travelled far with mem'ries I'm thinkin' of
Through all of this time thought my love would have passed
But I know now that our love was meant to last
What can I do with a love like this in my heart?
What can I do Babe, it's tearin' me apart?
Oh it's been a while since we been alone
And I know it's sad but I'd die for your love
I close my eyes and I see you by my side,
My hopes and dreams of our love is my desire
I want you to know that this love is still alive
So I held on to a lie I had to try
What can I do with a love like this in my heart?
So what can I do, It's tearin' me apart
So what can I do, What can I do

Kindly Keep It Country

If youre gonna play the jukebox
Would you kindly keep it country
cause Im feelin so lonely tonight
Oh please play a sad song about a heart thats just been stepped on
Would you kindly keep it country for me tonight
Id get up off this bar stool if youd play something we could dance to
Oh, a song about a love thats gone astray
Oh I love to hear em sing about the misery and pain
Would you kindly keep it country for me tonight
Oh please play a sad song about a heart thats just been stepped on
Would you kindly keep it country for me tonight

Boy From The Country

This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the an evening with john denver album as a live track, and has also been released on the some days are diamonds album as a studio versi
R
Because he called the forest brother
Because he called the earth his mother
They drove him out into the rain
Some people even said the boy from the country was insane
Because he spoke with fish in the creek
He tried to tell us that the animals could speak
Who knows, perhaps they do
How do you know they dont
Just because theyve never spoken to you
Boy from the country, he left his home when he was young
Boy from the country, he loves the sun
He tried to tell us that we should love the land
We turned our heads and laughed
And we did not understand
Sometimes I think that the boy from the country
Is the only one who sees
Because the boy from the country
Doesnt want to see the forest for the trees
Boy from the country, he left his home when he was young
Boy from the country, he loves the sun

Dreaming Country

I am sitting on a porch in a swing,
Dreaming country and enjoying the spring
Looking down a road that not on any map
While picking the guitar lying across my lab,

Dreaming country and living the life of song
It's the kind of living where you can't go wrong.
Dreaming country and walking the road of song
Singing proud, playing my guitar that I brought along

The tunes just come to me and the words run free
Country honey and the old oak tree
I feel the rhythm of the beat within my heart
The words roll out country; like a work of art.

Dreaming country and living the life of song
It's the kind of living where you can't go wrong.
Dreaming country and walking the road of song
Singing proud, playing my guitar that I brought along

Tell me do you feel the rhythm and the country mood
Do you hear the sound of loving that you can't elude.
Sit back and enjoy the tunes, let's dream of some country
It's the kind of music that keeps you so damn hungry

Dreaming country and living the life of song
It's the kind of living where you can't go wrong.
Dreaming country and walking the road of song
Singing proud, playing my guitar that I brought along

Put A Little Holiday In Your Heart

(roger wojahn/scott wojahn/greg wojahn)
Feel the cold wind blowing-winters coming on
tis the season, so they say
If you need help believing cause your spirit aint too strong
Hold my hand--well push that cloud away
Put a little holiday in your heart
Itll put a little shuffle in your step
Give you a song that you can sing
With a melody you cant forget
And if you wanna join in a little harmony
To keep the world from tearin apart
Well you know where to look
Yeah--you gotta put a little holiday in your heart
Theres a man on the corner who doesnt have a name
People pass and turn their heads away
But to share a simple kindness would set your heart aflame
And youll get more than youll ever give away
Put a little holiday in your heart
Itll put a little shuffle in your step
Give you a song that you can sing
With a melody you cant forget
And if you wanna join in a little harmony
To keep the world from tearin apart
Well you know where to look
Yeah--you gotta put a little holiday in your heart
It starts with you, it starts with me
That aint no stranger, hes family and it dont matter if we agree
It all comes down to love
Put a little holiday in your heart
Itll put a little shuffle in your step
Give you a song that you can sing
With a melody you cant forget
And if you wanna join in a little harmony
To keep the world from tearin apart
Well you know where to look
Yeah--you gotta put a little holiday in your heart

Tired Old Country Song

Regi price/jl vanderford
Another day, another night
Another tired old country song
You know, I sing of love delight
But I know its all wrong
The life I live out on the road
Is one I swear no one could love
Yet I feel I must go on
And sing this tired
This tired old country song
I move around from place to place
But all the towns look just the same
I see the same old face
Losin still my claim to fame
Ill sing the guitar blues
Drink my drink and pay the dues
Then I guess Ill ramble on
And sing this tired
This tired old country song
Why did I have to compromise
To reach my piece of the fame?
Life could have been so different
In that eight to five game
So I guess Ill settle down
Get my feet back on the ground
Once a country star
Now Im just a country clown
Hang my guitar on the wall
I wont need it anymore
For I think the time has come
To end this tired
This tired old country song
To end this tired
This tired old country song

Get Loose

Whether you're whinin' it grindin' it or straight tworkin' it
I don't care as long as you're workin' it
Ride the vibes until you get into it
I guarantee for sure you'll be lovin' it
Whether you came alone to leave with someone
Or with your crew to party til' the night is done
Do your thang aint nobody stoppin' you
It's whateva all I want for you to do is...
Close your eyes and just groove
Don't stand there come on move
Don't be afraid to let go
Let the music take control
If you come here to have a good time
Leave all your troubles behind
Wave your hands and get live
This is the place and now is the time
Get loose tonight we get down
Tearin' up til' the place shutdown
Get loose it's time to get loud
Fell the bass boomin' movin' the crowd
Get loose let it go
Quit standin' around and get on the floor
Everybody grab somebody here we go
We revin' up the party act like ya know
Aint no need for fighting or catchin' some kinda attitude
Check that mess before you step in the room
Let it go remember what you came to do
While the D.J. spins it on the ones and twos
Get busy get jiggy whatever works for you
Whether tipsy or sober that's up to you
But before the night's over I'm tellin you
To enjoy yourself all you need to do is...
Close your eyes and just groove
Don't stand there come on move
Don't be afraid to let go
Let the music take control
If you come here to have a good time
Leave all your troubles behind
Wave your hands and get live
This is the place and now is the time
Get loose tonight we get down
Tearin' up til' the place shutdown
Get loose it's time to get loud
Fell the bass boomin' movin' the crowd
Get loose let it go
Quit standin' around and get on the floor
Everybody grab somebody here we go
We revin' up the party act like ya know
Ahh ahh ahhh
Now that you're on the floor, I know that you're wanting more
Ahh ahh ahhh
The music's taking over you, show me what cha gonna do
Ahh ahh ahhh
Too late you can't hide I can see it's in you
Ahh ahh ahhh
And you feel the need to let it go
Get loose tonight we get down
Tearin' up til' the place shutdown
Get loose it's time to get loud
Fell the bass boomin' movin' the crowd
Get loose let it go
Quit standin' around and get on the floor
Everybody grab somebody here we go

Barefoot Ballad

(words & music by fuller - morris)
I want a barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad
Wont you play for me a down home country song
cause when I kick my shoes off and I kick my blues off
With a barefoot ballad you just cant go wrong
Give me a honk-tonk fiddle with a guitar in the middle and a melody
Humming like a fountain swinging out on smokey mountain
I want a barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad
Wont you play for me a down home country song
cause when I kick my shoes off and I kick my blues off
With a barefoot ballad you just cant go wrong
Now the big toes connected to the two toe
And the two toes connected to the three toe
And the three toes connected to the four toe
And the four toes connected to the five toe
And the five toe and away we go
I want a barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad
Wont you play for me a down home country song
cause when I kick my shoes off and I kick my blues off
With a barefoot ballad you just cant go wrong
Now the big toes connected to the two toe
And the two toes connected to the three toe
And the three toes connected to the four toe
And the four toes connected to the five toe
And the five toe and away we go
I wanna barefoot ballad yes a barefoot ballad
Wont you play for me a barefoot ballad song.

Dont Rock The Jukebox

Dont rock the jukebox
I wanna hear some jones
Cause my heart aint ready
For the rolling stones
I dont feel like rocking
Since my babys gone
So dont rock the jukebox
Play me a country song
Before you drop that quarter
Keep one thing in mind
You got a heartbroke hillbilly
Standing here in line
Ive been down and lonely
Ever since she left
Before you punch that number
May I make one request
Dont rock the jukebox
I wanna hear some jones
Cause my heart aint ready
For the rolling stones
I dont feel like rocking
Since my babys gone
So dont rock the jukebox
Play me a country song
I aint got nothing
Against rock and roll
But when your hearts been broken
You need a song thats slow
There aint nothing like a steel guitar
To drown a memory
Before you spend your money baby
Play a song for me
Dont rock the jukebox
I wanna hear some jones
Cause my heart aint ready
For the rolling stones

So dont rock the jukebox

Youre my fatal attraction
Oh, no, I cant stop
Youre my midnight fantasy
Youre my cream of the crop

Like sex on the beach
I wanna take you home now girl
Gonna practice what I preach, dig

Our veins of passion pumping so strong
Were like gas and fire
Got a burnin desire
Them sparks are gonna fly and well be

Shakin shakin
Tearin down the walls
Little by little, inch by inch
Tearin down the walls
Screamin scratchin
Tearin down the walls
Little by little, inch by inch
Tearin down the walls
I just wanna eat you up
Like a lion in a cage
Just get a little bit closer girl
And thats all Ill need to say
Im comin home girl
Im comin home now
Youre like a slave to the rhythm
Im gonna put you to the test
You turn up the heat turn on the light
And Ill do the rest
Im comin home girl,

I can feel it runnin hot
Our veins of passion pumping so strong
Were like gas and fire
