Angel From Montgomery
I am an old woman named after my mother
My old man is another child thats grown old
If dreams were lightning thunder was desire
This old house would have burnt down a long time ago
Chorus:
Make me an angel that flies from montgomry
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
When I was a young girl well, I had me a cowboy
He werent much to look at, just free rambling man
But that was a long time and no matter how I try
The years just flow by like a broken down dam.
Repeat chorus:
Theres flies in the kitchen I can hear em there buzzing
And I aint done nothing since I woke up today.
How the hell can a person go to work in the morning
And come home in the evening and have nothing to say.
Repeat chorus:

Angel From Montgomery
I am an old woman, named after my mother
My old man is another, child that's grown old
If dreams were lightning, thunder were desire
This old house would have burnt down, a long time ago
Make me an angel that flies from Montgomery
Make me a poster from an old rodeo
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
When I was a young girl, well I had me a cowboy
He weren't much to look at, just a free rambling man
But that was a long time, and no matter how I try
The years just flow by, like a broken down dam
There's flies in the kitchen, I can hear 'em there buzzing
And I ain't done nothing, since I woke up today
How the hell can a person, go to work in the morning
And come home in the evening, and have nothing to say

Rodeo Or Mexico
For a change
I headed south
Across the border
For the pesos and
A different horse to ride
Id be back to make
The rodeo in waco
But that was long
Before I saw them
Dark brown eyes
With long black hair and
English bad and broken
Her body said the words
She couldnt find
As I hung on every word
She left unspoken
The question started
Leaning on my mind
[chorus:]
Rodeo or mexico
They both can keep
A cowboy satisfied
Rodeo or mexico
The only way
I know how to decide
Is just to get on and ride
We danced all night
Beneath that sheet of cotton
And you just dont
Tell a girl like that goodbye
But the cowboy life
Aint easily forgotten
Though lying there
I couldnt help
But wonder why
[repeat chorus]
The morning
Found the answer
Dawning on me
As I woke up to the
Sharp end of a knife
He was screaming at
The woman hanging on me
Does anybody know the
Spanish word for wife?
[repeat chorus]

Lonesome Rodeo Cowboy
I own this horse and saddle
And that old cadillac
This broken down horse trailer
And the clothes that are on my back
Well I know that it aint a hell of alot
But its all that I can show
My wife left me five years ago
In one of those rodeo towns
I cant say that I blame her much
She just wanted to settle down
Oh God how I miss that woman
It hurt so to see her go
If I was smart I woulda stuck by her
But Im hooked on this rodeo
Chorus:
And Im just a lonesome cowboy
Im a little bit over the hill
I shoulda quit this thing a long time ago
But I guess I never will
So I keep on movin from show to show
Hopin to change my luck
My good ol days are just a memory
But I just cant give it up
There was a time I used to do alright
And bring home my share of the dough
But now Im losin out to the younger boys
I guess I must be gettin slow
But theres one thing you learn from this
You gotta make it on your own
Cause when your on top youve got a million friends
But when your down buddy youre all alone
Repeat chorus
My good ol days are just a memory
But I just cant give it up

Rodeo
His eyes are cold and restless
His wounds have almost healed
And shed give half of texas
Just to change the way he feels
She knows his loves in tulsa
And she knows hes gonna go
Well, it aint no woman, flesh and blood
Its that damned old rodeo.
(chorus)
Well, its bulls and blood
Its dust and mud
Its the roar of a sunday crowd
Its the white in his knuckles
The gold in the buckle
Hell win the next go round
Its boots and chaps
Its cowboy hats
Its spurs and latigo
Its the ropes and the reins
And the joy and the pain
And they call the thing rodeo.
She does her best to hold him
When his love comes to call
But his need for it controls a man
And her backs against the wall
And its so long girl, Ill see you.
When its time for him to go
You know the woman wants her cowboy
Like he wants his rodeo
*chorus*
Itll drive a cowboy crazy
Itll drive the man insane
And hell sell off everything he owns
Just to pay to play her game
And a broken home and some broken bones
Is all hell have to show
For all the years that he spent chasin
This dream they call rodeo.
*chorus*
Well, its bulls and blood
Its dust and mud
Its the roar of a sunday crowd
Its the white in his knuckles
The gold in the buckle
Hell win the next go round
Its boots and chaps
Its cowboy hats
Its spurs and latigo
Its the ropes and the reins
And the joy and the pain
And they call the thing rodeo.
Its the broncs and the blood
Its the steers and the mud
And they call the thing rodeo

I Can Still Make Cheyenne
Her telephone rang bout a quarter to nine
She heard his voice on the other end of the line
She wondered what was wrong this time
She never knew what his calls might bring
With a cowboy like him it could be anything
And she always expected the worst in the back of her mind.
He said, its cold out here and Im all alone,
I didnt make the short go again and Im coming home.
I know Ive been away too long.
I never got a chance to write or call
And I know this rodeo has been hard on us all
But Ill be home soon and honey is there something wrong?
Chorus:
She said, dont bother comin home.
By the time you get here Ill be long gone.
Theres somebody new and he sure aint no rodeo man.
He said, Im sorry its come down to this.
Theres so much about you that Im gonna miss.
But its alright baby, if I hurry I can still make cheyenne.
Gotta go now baby, if I hurry I can still make cheyenne.
He left that phone danglin off the hook
Then slowly turned around and gave it one last look
Then he just walked away
He aimed his truck toward that wyoming line
With a little luck he could still get there in time
And in that cheyenne wind he could still hear her say.

Everbody Gets The Blues
It dont matter if youre rich
It dont make no difference if youre poor
Simple things in life can make you mad to the core
It doesnt matter if youre young
Dont make no difference if youre old
You got to stand a little rain
Before you reach a pot of gold
Chorus:
Everybody gets the blues
Everybody got to cry
Take the good with the bad
Take the lows and the high
Well you work and you worry
Spend you life paying dues
Everybody has a hard time sometime
Everybody gets the blues
Aint no different for a woman
Than it is for a man
Everybody goes dancing
Everybody pays the band
Everybody got to take
Everybody got to give
Everybody got to live
[repeat chorus]
Dont matter if youre fat
Dont matter if youre thin
Everybody got to lose
Everybody got to win
Dont matter if youre black
Dont matter if youre white
You know you got to get it wrong
To have a chance to make it right

One More Chance
(john lang, richard page, steve george)
Whenever my mind sees you girl
I think of the times we owned the world
Crazy in love I missed the signs
I just couldnt see
I never believed you were leavin my life
(chorus # 1)
Baby give us one more chance
So we can love again
Theres a time for love, a time to heal
Now its time for us to mend
(chorus # 2)
Baby give us one more chance
Let me come back home
I dont wanna run the endless road
Or fight this world alone
You were the diamond in my life
You were the only star in sight
Playin against the odds I lost
All that I had
Oh what was the cost of you leavin my life
(repeat chorus # 1)
(repeat chorus # 2)
Give us one more chance
Its all that we need
To let the heartache mend girl
And make a love once broken
Strong again

If You Only Knew
(jane mariash, dianna rae)
So here you are again
Standing at my door
You know Id understand
Well thats what friends are for
Whats he done this time
What did he say
To make you so darn mad
That youre running away
Now you say you want to be like me
Independent and free
Chorus:
But if you only knew
What a single girl goes through
The long working days and the lonley nights
The empty I love yous
Oh if you only knew what its like to be alone
Youd put your anger down
Turn around and go back home
My life looks good to you
Im always in control
No one to answer to
But no one there to hold
You see in my eyes you are the lucky one
With loving arms that you can lean upon
Id give anything I could to say
What youre throwing away
Cause (repeat chorus)
I know its hard to face that love aint perfect everyday
But I know a hundred girls who would gladly take your place
So (repeat chorus)
Youd put your anger down
Turn around and go back home
If you only knew

Love Dont Always Come Easy
(ed king, johnny van-zant)
Two young lovers meet and take each others hand
They say I do in the name of the lord
Livin as one givin all they can
Then the pressures come and a child is born
Young girl cradles the child in her arms
The mans home late and his days too long
Theyre both unable to spend some time alone
That everybody needs to have
Thats the thing that keeps love strong
(chorus)
Love dont always come easy
And sometimes love it can hurt
Words dont always come easy
Its worth a try were gonna make it work
cause love dont always come easy
Without warning many go a different way
And travel that road lookin for someone
Their lives unravel a little more every day
This aint no time to turn and run
Its a crime to throw it all away

Must tomorrow just keep on being

For I just cant stop loving you

A habit Ive held for so long
But I just started hurting all over again

How Long
Its so hard just waitin
But I guess thats what I have to do
My poor heart keeps on breakin
With every moment Im away from you
I know youre smart takin
Your time
cause of what it cost you
Once before
But its not then and I love
You a lot
Now and forever
Chorus:
How long do I wait before you make up your mind
How long I wonder
How long before you take away the hardest of times
How long I wonder
Its unfair when two who care
Have to face such a perilous sea
Despair lingers everywhere
Like a cloud nobody can reach
I understand youre afraid of it all
Love is one hell of a step
Ill be there if you panic or fall
No matter what the depth

Well I don't know where they come from
But they sure do come
I hope they're comin' for me
And I don't know how they do it
But they sure do it good
I hope they do it for free

They give me cat scratch fever
Cat scratch fever
Well the first time that I got it
I was just ten years old
Got it from some pussy next door
Then I went and seen the doctor
And he gave me the cure
I think I want it some more
[Repeat Chorus 2x]
It's nothing dangerous
I feel no pain
I've got to ch-ch-change
You know you got it when you're goin' insane
It makes a grown man cry, cry
Won't you make my bed
I make the pussy purr
With the stroke of my hand
They know they gettin' from me
They know just where to go
When they need their lovin' man
They know I do it for free

March Of Time
Hours of lust, hours of tears passing by before my eyes
Today, tomorrow, yesterday. . .one life

Glad To Be Alive (7'' Mix)
[INTRO:]
Ohh life's so hard
Someday's you need something new to wear
Like a brand new hat

Try so hard
To work it out
People try to hold you back
On day's like that
You need another hand

It's the same all over the world
People have to earn a living
Now you're so far from the troubles at home
Leave them alone
And they'll work themselves out

We love it
Glad to be alive
I like it
Working over time in lovin'
I hope tomorrow feels like this
Yeah

Dreaming hard
Brand new car
And another home loan
And the phone bill is overdue
Don't give up on rainy days
I've seen the sun come shining through
On you and me
Make you feel alright

Life's so hard
We can work it out
Will it's a big tough city
We can work out our way

A little salvation just a waitin for ya
