I will hold my head up high. You will never see me cry. I'll smile and say I'm good. But I would fall apart if I could. . I'm inside out, shot through the center.
I'm afraid to go up to the second floor. If you wanted to work it out, why'd you lock the door. Thought I was good at loving you. But our light went out when you wanted it to.
Hold on, until the feeling is so strong. Until the ground that you walk on, is where you stand.. This dream, it heals and it haunts me,. Its tempted and taught me who I am,.
If I didn't know better I'd hang my hat right there. If I didn't know better I'd follow you up the stairs. . Stop saying those sweet things you know I like to hear.
I've got this friend. I don't think you know him. He's not much for words. He's hidden his heart away. . Oh, I've got this friend. A loveless romantic.
When I had you to myself. I didn't want you around. All those pretty faces always made you stand out from the crowd. Someone picked you from the bunch.
I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day. I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day. Their old familiar carols play,. And wild and sweet the words repeat. Of peace on earth, good will to men.
I had me a girl. Who taught me those things. A young man should know. Down, down on my knees. I'd beg and I'd plead. To learn a little bit more. Oh that woman taught me to pray.
The prisons are empty, the homeless have houses. Nobody's hungry, nobody's poor. Nobody's judged by their faith or their color. Nobody's wrong in this world without war.
I walked behind the chute, strapped my spurs to my boots. At that Big Rodeo in Cheyenne. Feelin' tired and sore for a ride the day before. And a thousand other rides since I began.
The walls that surround me in this room I call my well of loneliness. Keep whispering your name with the voices hauntin' as your soft arrays. And since you've gone away I get lonelier each day.
Sometimes this old road. Gets so damn lonesome away from home. Ain't no way in sight, head on back. . Nobody knows the way it feels. Suffer through this living hell.
There's a big bright moon above and the night's just made for love. Baby I'm ready if you're willing. Well that twinkle in your eye is a darin' me to try baby I'm ready if you're willing.
I'm country. Well there's a little word and it fits me to a t. I don't know how you spell it but it's country and that's me.. I laugh when I'm happy and cry when I'm blue.
Stoke up the fire mom bake me a pie stick a big chicken in the skillet to fry. Bake me some biscuits a chocolate cake too I'm comin' home mom home to see you.
Down on your luck lookin' for an answer. Why does love keep slippin' away. You want somebody that you can count. Oh, well girl this is your lucky day.
Darling, I need my freedom. I've been my own man so far. I never felt so free 'til. I got wrapped up in your arms. . I know the heartaches. Love can sometimes put you through.
I ride an old paint I lead an old Dan. I'm off to Montan' for to throw the hooley ann. They feed in the coulees they water in the draw. Their tails're all matted their backs're all raw.
We'll I've been up and I've been down I've been over and I've been around. I've been in and I've been out I've had some thinks to shout about. But I know I won't strike out if I got you.
Cowboys ain't never got no money their wild and livin' in a different world. They only care about their horse and saddle but a cowboy dosn't keep a steady girl.
