| We Shall Be Free This ain't comin' from no prophet Just an ordinary man When I close my eyes I see The way this world shall be When we all walk hand in hand When the last child cries for a crust of bread When the last man dies for just words that he said When there's shelter over the poorest head We shall be free When the last thing we notice is the color of skin And the first thing we look for is the beauty within When the skies and the oceans are clean again Then we shall be free We shall be free We shall be free Stand straight, walk proud 'Cause we shall be free When we're free to love anyone we choose When this world's big enough for all different views When we all can worship from our own kind of pew Then we shall be free We shall be free We shall be free Have a little faith Hold out 'Cause we shall be free And when money talks for the very last time And nobody walks a step behind When there's only one race and that's mankind Then we shall be free We shall be free We shall be free Stand straight, walk proud, have a little faith, hold out We shall be free We shall be free We shall be free Stand straight, have a little faith We shall be free |
| If Tomorrow Never Comes Sometimes late at night I lie awake and watch her sleeping She's lost in peaceful dreams So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark And the thought crosses my mind If I never wake up in the morning Would she ever doubt the way I feel About her in my heart If tomorrow never comes Will she know how much I loved her Did I try in every way to show her every day That she's my only one And if my time on earth were through And she must face the world without me Is the love I gave her in the past Gonna be enough to last If tomorrow never comes 'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life Who never knew how much I loved them Now I live with the regret That my true feelings for them never were revealed So I made a promise to myself To say each day how much she means to me And avoid that circumstance Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel If tomorrow never comes Will she know how much I loved her Did I try in every way to show her every day That she's my only one And if my time on earth were through And she must face the world without me Is the love I gave her in the past Gonna be enough to last If tomorrow never comes So tell that someone that you love Just what you're thinking of If tomorrow never comes |
| Longneck Bottle Longneck bottle Let go of my hand Hey jukebox don't start playin' that song again 'Cause there's a girl at home who loves me You know she won't understand Longneck bottle Let go of my hand Hey barroom mirror on the wall Go stare at someone else Don't show the world the fool I am Just keep it to yourself Longneck bottle Let go of my hand Hey jukebox don't start playin' that song again 'Cause there's a girl at home who loves me You know she won't understand Longneck bottle Let go of my hand Dance floor seems you're underneath my feet Everywhere I turn I oughta waltz right out of them swingin' doors But that's a step I just can't learn Longneck bottle Let go of my hand Hey jukebox don't start playin' that song again 'Cause there's a girl at home who loves me You know she won't understand Longneck bottle Let go of my hand |
| Rodeo His eyes are cold and restless His wounds have almost healed And she'd give half of Texas Just to change the way he feels She knows his love's in Tulsa And she knows he's gonna go Well, it ain't no woman, flesh and blood It's that damned old rodeo Well, it's bulls and blood It's dust and mud It's the roar of a Sunday crowd It's the white in his knuckles The gold in the buckle He'll win the next go 'round It's boots and chaps It's cowboy hats It's spurs and latigo It's 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 him And her back's against the wall And it's "So long girl, I'll see you" When it's time for him to go You know the woman wants her cowboy Like he wants his rodeo Well, it's bulls and blood It's dust and mud It's the roar of a Sunday crowd It's the white in his knuckles The gold in the buckle He'll win the next go 'round It's boots and chaps It's cowboy hats It's spurs and latigo It's the ropes and the reins And the joy and the pain And they call the thing rodeo It'll drive a cowboy crazy It'll drive the man insane And he'll sell off everything he owns Just to pay to play her game And a broken home and some broken bones Is all he'll have to show For all the years that he spent chasin' This dream they call rodeo Well, it's bulls and blood It's dust and mud It's the roar of a Sunday crowd It's the white in his knuckles The gold in the buckle He'll win the next go 'round It's boots and chaps It's cowboy hats It's spurs and latigo It's the ropes and the reins And the joy and the pain And they call the thing rodeo It's the broncs and the blood It's the steers and the mud And they call the thing rodeo |
| She's Gonna Make It He followed her to work this morning He'd never seen that dress before She seemed to sail right through Those dark clouds forming That he knows he's headed for After seven years of marriage He wanted out Now after seven months of freedom It's clear that there's no doubt She's gonna make it And he never will He's at the foot of the mountain And she's over that hill He's sinkin' at sea And her sails are filled She's gonna make it And he never will And you know it's not like she's forgot about him She's just dealing with the pain And the fact that she's survived so well without him You know it's driving him insane And the crazy thing about it Is she'd take him back But the fool in him that walked out Is the fool that just won't ask She's gonna make it And he never will He's at the foot of the mountain And she's over that hill He's sinkin' at sea And her sails are filled She's gonna make it And he never will She's gonna make it He never will |
