A Good Wife
04:06
|
|||
Red’s a color that knows no hesitation
Never looking back to wonder why
Blue is the mother o midnight inspiration
Cuz that’s the time when you don’t have to try
Yellow is the color of my sweet sunrise
Purple brings a sunset to the night
You are every color
Every color in my rainbow- a good wife
Snow melts on the mountain in the springtime
From the great divide down to the sea
Mixing with the tides of the seven oceans
Fixin’ up a feast for you and me
Yellow is the color of my sweet sunrise
Purple brings a sunset to the night
But you are every color
Every color in my rainbow ooh
Red , blue and yellow-green
All the colors in between
Every season, every year
All the oceans far and near
Red’s a color that knows no hesitation
Never looking back to wonder why
But blue is the mother o midnight inspiration
Yellow is the color of my sweet sunrise
And purple brings a sunset to the night
But you are every color
Every color to my rainbow
Yellow is the color of my sweet sunrise
Purple brings a sunset to the night
a you are every color
Every color in my rainbow o oh- a good wife
a good wife ooh ooh a good wife
mm mm a good wife

Everything Girl
04:30
|

I gotta say you're my everything girl
I'm the luckiest boy in the world
I wouldn't trade it, not for a minute
Living my life, girl without you in it
Thirty-four now, if you're keeping score
Got me wishing for thirty-four more
I believe what I know to be true
I believe in you
We both laugh at the same parts in the movie
We both love a quiet little weekend for two
We both learned how to live life with another
Working it out one way or the other
I believe what I know to be true
I believe in me and you
Boy meets girl
Tilt-a-whirl
Say I do
She does too
Promised land
Making plans
Life goes on
While the singer sings the song
I gotta say you're my everything girl
I'm the luckiest boy in the world
I wouldn't trade it, not for a minute
Living my life, girl without you in it
I believe what I know to be true
I believe in you
I believe in the sun shining through
I believe in me and you
I believe in you
And me together

She Was In A Hurry
03:18
|

She was in a hurry
I had me some time
I said “don’t you worry
you can take my place in line
I’ve got nothing going
oh, but everything is fine”
she was in a hurry
I had a little time
If it’s any consolation
I’ve been there before
running like a rocket
rolling through an open door
rackin’ up those frequent fliers
balls up in in air
if it’s any consolation
I’ve been there
She was in a hurry
I had a little time
I told her not to worry
she’d make her gate just fine
solo
Thunderheads a crashing
there’s weather everywhere
monitors are flashin’
heck, nobody’s goin’ nowhere
I landed in that airport bar
sippin’ on a beer
she walked up to me and said
“I’d hoped I’d find you here
I was in a hurry
you said you had some time
you told me not to worry
and I made my gate just fine
I just want to thank you
for your precious little time
the next round’s mine”
She was in a hurry
I had me some time
I told her not to worry
she could take my place in line
You were in a hurry

Drivin’ down to Mexico
Lefty & Juanita go
to take it slow Take it slow
Pack the car, change the oil
C.C. Ryder'sready to roll
Down to Mexico, Baja, Mexico
Winter in the San Juans take's a toll
As the years keep stacking up
they cut down in your soul’
So they’re following the sun
down old Highway One to Mexico
That’s where Lefty & Juanita
in that fine Casita
Arm in arm they’ll greet ‘ya
at that El Molino door
Pale blue wooden door
Throw your old alarm away
Rooster wakes you up every day
to the morning sun
Shinin’ down on everyone
Quiet place for lettin’ go
Todos Santos, Mexico
Where Lefty & Juanita take it slow
Dusty truck is cruisin’ ‘round the town
Speakers on the hood
are shouting’ out what’s goin’ down
So they’re drivin’ down to Mexico
Lefty & Juanita go
to take it slow Take it slow
Yeah, they’re following the sun
down old Highway One
Baja, Mexico

13 Reasons
03:45
|
|||
13 reasons you should go
first one we already know
all the hearts we’ve broken, oh
just one of 13 reasons
two would be forever more
the breaking of the bonds we swore
dashed upon love’s rocky shore
not altogether pleasin’
13 reasons on and on
like verses in a sad old song
once you sing can’t be undone
13 reasons one by one
houses where they bolt the doors
are precious reasons three and four
declaration of love’s gone war
they’re there to underscore
13 reasons on and on
like verses in a sad old song
once they’re sung can’t be undone
13 reasons one by one
passion fuels the flames of blue
makin’ fools out of me and you
there ain’t no need to list them all
let’s stop at 13 reasons
so we best be on our separate ways
hopin’ and prayin’ for some better days
we gotta mend those fences one by one
each morning ‘till the setting sun
13 reasons on and on
like verses in the saddest song
once they’re sung can’t be undone
13 reasons you and I
will pay the price until we die
to all the hearts that we denied
way more than 13 reasons
more than 13 reasons
more than 13 reasons
13 reasons you should go

EZ Come EZ Go
03:51
|
|||
All I gotta do is sit right here
Everything comin’ clear
All I gotta do, is sit right here
take some time to clear my mind
never know just what I’ll find
take some time to ease my mind
EZ come, EZ go
out at the lake rollin’ with the flow
all I need is a pole in the water, oh
Billy’s gonna come, bring some bait
gas in the can, work can wait
Billy gonna come, bring some bait
try our luck down at the point
maybe roll us a skinny little… hmmm
try our luck down at the point
EZ come, EZ go
out at the lake rollin’ with the flow
all I need is a pole in the water, oh
Catch some fish, maybe not
don’t matter how many we caught
catch some fish, maybe not
later on, build us a fire
sing songs while the flames gettin’ higher
fireflies flickering in the yard
EZ Come, EZ Go
out at the lake, rollin’ with the flow
all we need is a guitar and a fishin’ pole
‘n we’re good to go

Peace On Earth
03:16
|
|||
What would you do
if you woke up on Christmas morning
and all the killing guns lay on the ground?
every creed and color lived together
all the little babies safe and sound … there’d be
Peace on Earth… everybody singing
Peace on Earth… guns lay on the ground
Peace on Earth… get them bells
a-ringin’ all around
back in your hometown
What would you do
if you woke up on Christmas morning
and no one sees the color of your skin?
rich man and a poor man walk together
open any door and they’ll let you in … there’d be
Peace on Earth… everybody singing
Peace on Earth… guns lay on the ground
Peace on Earth… get them bells
a ringin’ all around
back in your hometown
What would you do
if you woke up on Christmas morning
and all the killing guns lay on the ground?
every creed and color lived together
all the little babies safe and sound … there’d be
Peace on Earth… everybody singing
Peace on Earth… guns lay on the ground
Peace on Earth… get them bells
a ringin’ all around

On A Perfect Sunday
04:56
|
|||
So much for the blue skies
flakes are tumblin’ down
whisper like a feather
falling to the frozen ground
gathering momentum
picking up some speed
on a perfect Sunday
such a perfect Sunday
we float, keeping quiet confidences
float, linger on the circumstances
float, on a perfect Sunday
Watching from my window
sky returns to blue
sunlight, she is shining
on the likes of me and you
gathering momentum
sifting thru the trees
on a perfect Sunday
such a perfect Sunday
to float, keeping quiet confidences
float, linger on the circumstances
float, on a perfect Sunday
Every day we do the drill
big old rock push up the hill
never any lack of holes to fill
boardroom battle lines are drawn
neither side can get along
passion people grinding at the mill
I know it can’t last this way forever
page is gonna turn to Monday ‘fore too long
phones’ll get to ringin’
pendulum to swingin’
here they come again without a sound

You Just Know It
02:37
|
|||
How do you know
when you found someone
to be there forever more
from the break of day
‘till the setting sun
how do you know it for sure?
maybe a look, or maybe a smile
from a friend that you’ve known
for a little while
that turned into something more
You just know it
a feeling in your heart
you just know it
you’re makin’ a brand new start
it takes a leap of love
from somewhere up above
you just know it
You both been around
for a little while
you put on a couple miles
lookin’ before you leap
into something big
like walkin’ down the aisle
we never see it coming
‘till we’re headed for the great fall
the look of love
on both of your faces
surely tells it all
You just know it
it’s a feeling in your heart
you just know it
you both are makin’ a brand new start
it takes a leap of love
from somewhere up above
you just know it
you just know it
you know it
you know it

You And Me
03:28
|

I can see your features running through the pretty faces of our daughters
Fine and lovely ladies, just like they were as babies, made to order
You and me, family
Staying true
You and me together, outlasting every kind of weather, darling
There has never been another beacon bright as you for me my darling
You and me, family
Staying true
Caring, sharing, perfect pairing
What I’m saying
And if I were a betting man, I’d never draw another hand my darling
Cuz Why’d I ever want to go and lose the best girl I could choose, my darling
You and me, family
Meant to be, you and me
You and me

The Freedom Train
03:59
|

All aboard the Freedom Train
Everybody rides
Punch your ticket to a place
Where hope and peace abides
Every kind of people yearning
Waitin’ on the tide to turnin’
We’re all looking for a better way
Anticipated time is comin’
You can hear the drummers drummin’
Hearts are beatin’ stronger every day
All aboard the Freedom Train
Everybody rides
Punch your ticket to the place
Where hope and peace abides
All aboard the Freedom Train
There’s room for everyone
Red and White and Blue
They are the colors that we’ve won
Yesterday I stood in line
Just another guy who took the time
held that ballot to my breast
You could feel it in that room
We all knew just what we’re doin’
People stepping up to take the test
Lots of people late to work today
That’s a price we gladly pay
For the change that’s gonna come
Left and Right and Blue and Red
We knew when we went to bed
Tomorrow’s gonna be a brand new day
All aboard the Freedom Train…

Hey, Celine
04:57
|

Hey, Celine, I don’t know you all that well
We’re both in-laws in the Lowrey town
A big blue ocean lies between us
But you and me, we always get along
You’re goin’ thru some heavy stuff now
Enough to break down a lesser soul
Listen close, you can hear the drummer drumming
“it’s your time, girl to rock & roll”
You rock- across that big blue water
Like you once rocked your babies to sleep
You roll-just roll with what life brings you
Prayin’ for your soul to keep
You have got yourself a good man
Who’ll always be there by your side
To have and hold thru any kind of weather
Steady on, steady on just like the tides
And you rock- across that big blue water
Like you once rocked your babies to sleep
And you roll-with the punches that life brings you
Prayin’ for your soul
For your gentle soul
To keep
We take the good days when they’re given
We count up our blessings one by one
Thank the good Lord, then we go on livin’
And findin’ our places in the sun
And so we rock- across that big blue water
Like we once rocked our babies to sleep
And we roll- with the punches that life brings us
Prayin’ for our souls
Everybody’s souls
Hey, Celine
