If I Could Live Your Life
(a duet with reba mcentire)
(mark d. sanders, tim nichols)
Linda:
You jet from coast to coast
Dressed in designer clothes
When you appear somewhere
Your chauffeur drives you there
I wouldnt think twice
If I could live your life
Reba:
You see your friends at the store
Your sister lives next door
You kiss your babies goodnight
Your husbands there at your side
Id love to give it a try
If I could live your life
Chorus:
Both:
If I could trade places with you
Linda:
Hear the roar of the crowd
Reba:
And the church bells in a quiet town
Both:
Just for one moment in time
I wonder what this world would be like
If I could live your life
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Linda:
Saw your picture in people today
Reba:
And I see youre in the pta
Linda:
Youre living everyones dream
Reba:
It isnt all that it seems
Both:
Wouldnt it be nice
If I could live your life
Repeat chorus
(reba only sings last line if I could live your life
Linda:
If I could live your life
Both:
If I could live your life

Does He Love You
(sandy knox, billy stritch)
Reba:
I've known about you
For a while now
When he leaves me
He wears a smile now
As soon as he's away from me
In your arms is where he wants to be
Linda:
But you're the one he rushes home to
You're the one he gave his name to
I never see his face
In the early morning light
You have his mornings, his daytime, and sometimes i have his nights
Reba:
But does he love you
Linda:
Does he love you
Reba:
Like he loves me
Linda:
Like he loves me
Reba:
Does he think of you
Linda:
Does he think of you
Reba & linda:
When he's holding me
Reba:
And does he whisper
Linda:
Does he whisper
Reba & linda:
All his fantasies
Reba:
Does he love you
Linda:
Does he love you
Reba & linda:
Like he's been loving me
Linda:
But when he's with me
He says he needs me
And that he wants me
That he believes in me
Reba:
And when i'm in his arms
Oh he swears there's no one else
Is he deceiving me
Or am i deceiving myself
Linda:
Am i deceiving myself
Repeat chorus
Reba:
I should not lose my temper
Linda:
I should not be ashamed
Reba:
Cause i have eveything to lose
Linda:
And i, i have nothing to gain

Wonderful
She belongs there, left with her liberty
Never known as a non-believer
She laughs and stays in the
Won- won- wonderful
She knew how to gather the forest when
God reached softly and moved her body
One golden locket quite young
And loving her mother and father
Farther down the path was a mystery
Through the recess the chalk and numbers
A boy bumped into her
Won- won- won- wonderful
Na na na na na na na

Reba
Reba sink a boulder in the water
Reba tie a cable to a tree
Reba stuck in a game of lipstick perfume flypaper
Reba press a razor to a slide cross a needle with a prune
Knee deep in the motel tub
Reba dangle ladle form her lip
Dip
Sip
Reba babble to the nag with the lipstick perfume
Mutter to a farmer in a truck
Take a peek at the cheetah, reba
Cheetah on the prowl in a cage
Sink a boulder in the water
Tie a cable to a tree
Mutter nature to the nag
With the lipstick perfume
Reba flush a fleshfarm leftover
Thunder in a circle
Down the pipes
Bag it
Tag it
Sell it to the butcher in the store
Reba put a stopper in the bottom of the tub
Picked up a jar unscrewed the top
And watched it drop into the water
A little scoop of plaster mix
Some coffee grounds and mud
And then she stirred it with the ladle
That her grandmother had bought her
Threw in a pot of melted wax
A forefoot and a hoof
Apple core, worms galore
And a can of some corrosive
Coconuts and chloroform
Some wicker and some cork
Toxic waste, some purple paste
She hoped was not explosive
Reba dip a ladle for a taste of her creation
And she knew that what she make
Would be the finest in the nation

A Linda Song
Music: Barry Manilow
Lyrics: Enoch Anderson
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He never wrote a song for Linda
He wrote as though he lived alone
He wrote of dreams that end
And of sad brave men
Inventing worlds he'd never known
But he never wrote a song for Linda
And she was right there all along
Loved him back to life
When his luck ran low
But he never wrote a Linda song
He nearly broke his heart at writing
Linda kept him from despair
Standin' by his side
through the hungry days
But he hardly seemed to see her there
And he never wrote a song for Linda
And she was right there all along
The one real thing in his crazy world
And he never wrote a Linda song.
When the bills piled up
He couldn't pay
He couldn't dream no more
So he hitched a ride and he rode away
And he left a note for Linda by the door
By the door
When times got rough he'd phone her
Once or twice she took the call
Then she changed her number and she turned her head
And Linda never looked back at all
He'll never write a song for Linda
And she was right there all along
All he knows is no one understands
And he never wrote a Linda song
No he never wrote a Linda song

The Lines That Mama Recited To Our Housemaid
we just hired a new housemaid
and i like her
because she sings like a
mountain bird
her voice like the wind
passing
by the dainty leaves
of summer
she has the native color
of a fertile
brown soil
her skin glows
like a shiny buri
mat
but then mama
is so old and cranky
and her lines
are dirty:
linda! linda! where's my tea?
linda throw wipe my urine
linda wipe my anus
linda wash my v.gina
linda, i have vomits
all over my bed
linda, clean my room
linda, wash the plates
linda, swat the flies
linda, take my lice
linda, wash my spittle
linda! linda! linda!
stupida! stupida!
stupida! stupida!
since then i have
never heard her sing
since then i have
not seen her smile
but really, i like
her more.......

I Live For Your Love
Written by pam reswick, steve werfel and allan rich
Stand up, stand on your own, thats what they tell me
You can make it alone, but where does it say I have to move
Far away from you to prove Im strong,
Oh when all it really proves is Im lonely without you
And loneliness has to be wrong, I live for your love, (everyday), every minute
I live for your love, (in my life), want you in it
I live for your love, I admit it, I live for your love
I wake up with no one to kiss, sometimes I wonder, (wonder, wonder) if I just exist
I know there are people I can see, places I could be, and friends who call
Oh but what good does it do, theres no substitute for you
I want you or nothing at all, I live for your love, (every day), every minute
I live for your love, (in my life), want you in it, I live for your love, I admit it
I live for your love and your kisses, and know how Im missing
Your sweet tender touch, (tender touch), I need you so much
That I just cant go on anymore, what I wouldnt give for
cause darling I live for your love, (everyday), every minute
I live for your love, (got one life) want you in it
I live for your love, I hate to admit it, but oh, I live for, Id die for
What I wouldnt give for your love, (I live for your loveevery day)
I live for your love, (got one life) every day, every minute
(I live for your love), I have only got one life, I want you in it
Oh, my baby, yes, yes, I live for your love, ooh, ooh

Live
Clear out your mind
Look to your past and see what you can find
Stole soul afraid
Of the prophets perfect picture falls away
Is this the life that we choose to live
Or is this the life that has been giving
Now is the time to see what my life should be
What is mine!?
We live in Shangri La now!
We live in!
We live in!
We live in Shangri La now
We live in!
We live in!
It's a timeless rage
For many people praying to be saved
Truth is so strong
It needs lights to guide it so it can carry on
I've seen blood on my hands
Am I dead or is this where it begins
I feel the shame
For my friend who put a bullet in his brain!
We live in Shangri La now!
We live in!
We live in!
We live in Shangri La now
We live in!
We live in!
I've got
You've got
We've got
Something to die for
I've got
You've got
We've got
Something to die for
I've got
You've got
We've got
Something to die for
I've got
You've got
We've got
Something to die for
We live in Shangri La now!
We live in!
We live in!
We live in Shangri La now
We live in!
We live in!
We live in Shangri La now!
We live in!
We live in!
We live in Shangri La now
We live in!
We live in!
We live in Shangri La now!
We live in!
We live in!
We live in Shangri La now

This Is Not My Life
Written by miles zuniga
This, this is not my life
This, this is not my life
This is not my face,
This is not my place, no its just isnt right
This, this is not my life
You, do you remember me?
Remember, the way that it used to be.
Do you remember our car,
Do you remember our house,
Do you remember what it was like
Cause this, this is not my life
Chorus:
My life, my life, (now I live in the shadows)
My life, my life, (because you are my life)
My life, my life,
My life
Youre the only one, who can see, the real me
Youre the only one, cant you see, cant you see...
You took away my world
You took away my world
You took away my smile,
You took away my life,
You took away my reason to live
You, you took away my world
And this is not my life
And this is not my life
Chorus:
My life, my life, (cause now I live in the shadows)
My life, my life, (because you are my life)
My life, my life, (and now its endless night)
My life, my life, (and this is not my life)
My life, my life,
My life, my life

Linda Goes To Mars
I just found out yesterday that linda goes to mars
Every time I sit and look at pictures of used cars
Shell turn on her radio and sit down in her chair
And look at me across the room, as if I wasnt there
Chorus:
Oh my stars! my lindas gone to mars
Well I wish she wouldnt leave me here alone
Oh my stars! my lindas gone to mars
Well, I wonder if shed bring me something home.
Something, somewhere, somehow took my linda by the hand
And secretly decoded our sacred wedding band
For when the moon shines down up on our happy, humble home
Her inner space gets tortured by some outer space unknown.
Repeat chorus:
Now I aint seen no saucers cept the ones upon the shelf
And if I ever seen one Id keep it to myself
For if theres life out there somewhere beyond this life on earth
Then linda must have gone out there and got her moneys worth.
Repeat chorus:
Yeah, I wonder if shed bring me something home.

We're All Alone (feat. Josey Y. Durval)
Reba
Outside the rain begins and it may never end.
So cry no more on the shore a dream will take us out to sea.
Forevermore, forevermore.
Close your eyes and dream and you can be with me.
Neath the waves, through the caves of hours.
Long forgotten now.
Chorus
We're all alone, we're all alone.
Close the window,
calm the lights and it will be allright.
No need to bother now.
Let it out, let it all begin.
And learn how to pretend.
Jose and Durval
Repetido ya. Lo antiguo pasara.
Fue amor, amantes y dolor.
Con el viento al volor. Abracame. O abracame.
Sin mirar vuelve a vivir.
Ambos sonando asi.
Sin importarnos mas.
Deja ya, regresa a vivir.
Empieza a disfrutar.
Solo yo, sola tu.

Climb That Mountain High
(don schlitz/reba mcentire)
Red sun a-rising, over the hill
Ive had enough of this desert to last from now until
Im tired of living day-to-day and hand-to-mouth
This could be the day I finally find my way out
Chorus:
Im gonna climb that mountain high
Im gonna see whats on the other side
Im gonna kiss this town good-bye
Im gonna climb that mountain
How I arrived here, heaven only knows
Seems more like the kind of place the devil wouldve chose
To spend my life here, is more than I can do
I know somewhere down the road my dream will come true
Repeat chorus
If I stay here forever
What will I have to show
But if I make it over
Then everyone will know
Im gonna climb that mountain high

Live Life
live
live the life you want to live
live the way you want to live the way you want your life to be
pursue your dreams and dream the dreams that you pursue
live your life live your dreams touch and reach for all these dreams
do not think much there is no point to so much ponder and banter
live, live, live the life that gives you life
this is our main business my friend,
the living must live the life of the living
we die, we die for sure, in our own time, in His own will
ours is not to destroy this life we have
this gift
ours is to live this life, why bother about dying?

I Wouldnt Change A Thing
(johnny bristol)
I wouldnt change a thing
If I had to live my life all over
I wouldnt change a thing
If I had to live my life all over
I lived a life thats full
Many times I had to pull my way to the top
Never knowing where Im gonna stop
I made my mistakes
But lord, what I learned
It led me straight to you babe
And thats my only concern
I wouldnt change a thing
If I had to live my life all over
Oh, Id do it all again
If I had to live my life all over
It saddens me to think
That somewhere along the way
Id change my course
And I wouldnt be here today
So Ill take my ups and downs
And bear it with a smile
Cause it brought me straight to you babe
And it makes it all worthwhile
I wouldnt change a thing
If I had to live my life all over
Id do it all again
If I had to live my life all over
Here I am
Here Ill stay
Here I am
Here Ill stay...

I Live
I live in a world of shadow
I walk in your world unseen
I walk and talk
I breathe your air
But to me you pay no heed
I see your many faces
I know your well-placed-masks
I understand your longings
I hear your ghostly cries
I love you, here in shadow
Here in my hidden state
As I see you walk each day
Unknown am I to you
I live in a world of shadow
A world of sorrow and pain
None of which are truely mine
Buth those I've watched, I've seen
So I live in a world of shadow
And walk in your world unseen

Its My Life
This aint a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for the faith-departed
I aint gonna be just a face in the crowd
Youre gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud
Chorus:
Its my life
Its now or never
I aint gonna live forever
I just want to live while Im alive
(its my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live while Im alive
Its my life
This is for the ones who stood their ground
For tommy and gina who never backed down
Tomorrows getting harder make no mistake
Luck aint even lucky
Got to make your own breaks
Chorus:
Its my life
And its now or never
I aint gonna live forever
I just want to live while Im alive
(its my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while Im alive
cause its my life
Better stand tall when theyre calling you out
Dont bend, dont break, baby, dont back down
Chorus:
Its my life
And its now or never
cause I aint gonna live forever
I just want to live while Im alive
(its my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while Im alive
Chorus:
Its my life
And its now or never
cause I aint gonna live forever
I just want to live while Im alive
(its my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like frankie said

cause its my life!

My Mama Said
Tried to sneak out without saying
With my loudest record playing
Ooh, my mama said, look at this, you havent done your bed
My mama said, thats a thing that you should do instead
Then I did what she had told me
Dying for my friend to hold me
Ooh, my mama said, try and get one thing into your head
My mama said, pa and me, we give you room and bed
How I wanna live my life
Wanna live my life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life
In the morning she said listen
Ooh, I felt like in a prison
Yeah, my mama said, i know youve been out again with fred
(my mama said)
My mama said, dont you lie, your cheeks are blushing red
(my mama said)
Oh I wanna live my life
Wanna live my life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life
I said I can live without him
How I wish you wouldnt doubt him
Ooh, my mama said, if you want to hurt me go ahead
(my mama said)
My mama said, i suppose youd rather see me dead
(my mama said)
Oh I wanna live my life
Wanna live my life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life

You Got It
(jerry ragovoy/linda laurie)
Warmer than sunshine, baby
Sweeter than tears
Thats how my life has been
Since you first appeared
You opened up my heart
To everything fine
You put a light inside me
And you made me shine
From the time I met you everything came true
All I ever dreamed
I found in you
Ooh, you got it
Theres no way
Im gonna live without it
Nothin can stop it
Im all yours
cause baby you got it all
You keep me movin baby
To the beat of your drum
I love what youre doin
And where youre comin from
And when you hold me baby
Its like we are one
cause you got a motion
That gets me all undone
When you took my life and turned it all around
Ooh, you got me flying
Dont take me down
Ooh, you got it
Theres no way
Im gonna live without it
Nothin can stop it
Im all yours
cause baby you got it all
You know I cant control
For what I feel in my soul
My heart is full of you
All I wanna do is to love you
Love you the rest of my life
Keep it comin
Dont stop now
Spread your love around me
Do it now, do it now
Ooh, you got it
Theres no way
Im gonna live without it
Nothin can stop it
Im all yours
cause baby you got it all
Ooh, you got it
Theres no way
