Gary Blankinship

V1:
My mama told me not to fool around with that Jones boy
He's a no account from the day he was born
He's just got one thing on his mind,
she won't believe he ain't that kind
I know now she never listens to me

V2:
He's been runnin' wild since the day he turned thirteen
He never had a friend who could understand his ways
He can count on me by the lake tonight
were makin' our plans it'll be alright when he calls he's gonna call me

CH:
Call me we'll keep runnin' till dawn
It'll take'm all night till they ever find out we've gone
Call me my bags are packed
We're leavin' this townand we'll never look back
When you call me won't you call me tonight

V3:
This town don't know what there giving up in that boy
I promised my hand I know that he'll be true
I'll be ready when the phone rings twice
I'll slip out the back and it's gonna be nice
When you call me won't you call me tonight

CH:
Call me we'll keep runnin till dawn
It'll take'm all night till they ever find out we've gone
Call me my bags are packed
We're leavin' this town and we'll never look back
When you call me won't you call me tonight

BR:
I'll be ready when the phone rings twice
I'll slip out the back and it's gonna be nice
When you call me won't you call me tonight
When you call me won't you call me tonight

Ever buy a card you forget to send
Is there anything warmer than the smile of a friend

Keep all your money if you think it's enough
Cus nothing feels better than love

You can't pretend I see behind your saddened eyes
We're both needin' each others company

When someone like you is lookin '

Let's leave behind those heart
broken memories
It's over now we'll never change the past
Let's look ahead, plan for the future
And stop feelin' sorry for our selves

V1:
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
A man can hurt too
When he's left with no one to turn to
He's tryin' to hold on
if he could learn to just let go
But big boys aren't caught cryin' everybody knows

CH:
Hidden Tears and Heartaches no man stands alone
The night is always darkest right before the dawn
So taken another chance on a new romance
She's out there lookin' for you
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
You're bound to have a few

V2:
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
you can see it in his eyes
He'll pretend that it don't matter
it's just a thin disguise
Casual encounters to many one night stands
Seem to help feel like he's more of a man

CH:
Hidden Tears and Heartaches no man stands alone
The night is always darkest right before the dawn
So taken another chance on a new romance
She's out there lookin' for you
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
You're bound to have a few

BR:
Sometimes you feel like dyin'
But you got to keep on tryin'
and gettin' over those

CH:
Hidden Tears and Heartaches no man stands alone
The night is always darkest right before the dawn
So taken another chance on a new romance
She's out there lookin' for you
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
You're bound to have a few
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
You're bound to have a few
Hidden Tears and Heartaches
You're bound to have a few

Walkin' with a pretty girl they'll have lots to say

If I'm a day later and a dollar short they wont lend me a dime
What I've come to appreciate are those real friends of mine
and I still have some

Closer to the Heart

words & music

David Barker

V1
For many years there's been the girl who likes to settle down
All my luck the women I meet like to fool around
I'd like to meet a gal who's got that passion with a spark
She'll take me to that place that takes me, closer to the heart

CH
Closer to the heart a little, closer to the heart
I can't stand this empty feelin' tarin' me apart
I'm so anxious I can't wait for all that love to start
Closer to the heart a little, closer to the heart

V2
The same ole game of give and take, give and take some more
Then one day you cant hold on she walks right out the door
You don't give up you just give in, hope you've played it smart
You take her back with hope she takes you, closer to the heart

CH
Closer to the heart a little, closer to the heart
I can't stand this empty feelin' tarin' me apart
I'm so anxious I can't wait for all that love to start
Closer to the heart a little, closer to the heart

CH
Closer to the heart a little, closer to the heart
I can't stand this empty feelin' tarin' me apart
I'm so anxious I can't wait for all that love to start
Closer to the heart a little, closer to the heart.......

She Fell In Love With Me {over the internet}

V1
High technology has made
its way to the dating game
Where some might think that it has gone to far
Well thanks to my PC, I'm in L.O.V.E.
Didn't have to even start my truck


CH
Cus she fell in love with me over the internet
Apart 3000 miles close as we could get
Still we laugh about the day, me and my baby met
She fell in love with me over the internet

V2
Now adays there another way
to find who you're lookin' for
From across the street or a half a world away
They say first impressions count
but there's more than meets the eyes
when it's love the heart knows when and to fall


CH
Cus she fell in love with me over the internet
Apart 3000 miles close as we could get
Still we laugh about the day, me and my baby met
She fell in love with me over the internet


CH
Cus she fell in love with me over the internet
Apart 3000 miles close as we could get
Still we laugh about the day, me and my baby met
She fell in love with me over the internet

ADIOS GOODBYE FAIRWELL

Don't need more fame and fortune, I've had all that I can stand
Million miles of memories with the boys in the band
We played our brand of music all those nights across the land
ADIOS GOODBYE FAIRWELL

You've been a witness to the greatest moments of my life
Selling all those records and I've made' the young girls cry
Me in all my glory I can hold my head up high
I'd do it all over again

V3:
There was a time I heard my songs on country radio
The ending of an era has come and gone ya know
I'll take my final bow now it's time to end this show
ADIOS GOODBYE FAIRWELL

CH:
You've been a witness to the greatest moments of my life
Thank you all from me my children and my wife
They'll draw that final curtain as the stage lights fade to blue
I couldn't have done it without you

So it's not about me drinkin' whiskey anymore
I'd better while I'm able show myself to the door
Lookin' back with no regrets who could of asked for more

END OF THE SHOW

Words & Music
by

V1
Is it the end of the show, then exit stage left I will go
Take my last bow, get by somehow, find a new face in the crowd
Foot lights are fading to blue, one showdown left to review
You think I’m the cause, please hold your applause
Till after the end of the show

V2
Scene one it's all about you, then blame it all on me scene two
But I think not, scene three you’ve got some place that you’d rather be

No standing ovations at all, This is your last curtain call
You better be sure, it’s now or never
Is it the end of the show


Bridge
Our script reads like the extra is me
By your performance best actress is you

Chorus

No standing ovations at all, This is your last curtain call
You better be sure, it’s now or never
Is it the end of the show

You better be sure, it’s now or never
Is it the end of the show....
You better be sure, it’s now or never
Is it the end of the show....
Is it the end of the show....

CH
It’s my day off today
I’m needin’ a vacation got to get away
Island time is callin' my name
Sun and fun with sweet champagne
Snow nor hail nor pouring rain
Will stop my day off today

V1
I can’t bring myself to go to work today
Noise tension mass confusion
It’s worth missin’ one days pay
I’ll call in sick give my excuse tell the truth in every way
I hope my boss understands

CH
It’s my day off today
I’m needin’ a vacation got to get away
Gonna park my ass in the sand
Put a margarita in my hand
Watch the sunset that's the plan
It’s my day off today

CH
It’s my day off today
I’m needin’ a vacation got to get away
And so today it's mine all mine
Summer's here the time is right
Join me if you've got the time
It’s my day off today

It’s my day off today
It’s my day off today
It’s my day off today
It’s my day off today.......

HIGHER GROUND

Words & Music

David Barker

V1
I used to be a hell raiser, back in my home town
Burned all of my bridges, clueless about higher ground
Then one day, it comes crashin' down
Had my awhaa moment needin' some higher ground
Higher ground

CH
Started lookin' for higher ground
I couldn't find my crowd, livin' on higher ground
Round and round, gettin' off of this merry go round
I know now where I'm bound, headed towards higher ground

V2
Did some real soul searchin', finally heard that sound
That little voice inside me said seek higher ground
I finally figured it out, before it took it's toll
Onwards into forever, heart and soul

BR
I used both hands to pull my head out,
Now I can truly see the light

CH
Higher ground, I'm startin' to like that sound
Promise I'll play it loud, once I find higher ground
Feelin' proud, this feelin' is so profound,
Come to far to turn back now, lookin' for higher ground
I won't ever look back down, once I find higher ground.........
Higher ground.........
Higher ground.........
Higher ground.........

CALIFORNIA FEAVER

Words & Music
by
David Barker


V1
Headed west with blue skies callin' me
Back to where I know I need to be
Sights and sounds and partyin' down they have it all
If they ain't got it you wont need to give a call

CH
California you and me in her sunshine
California is where I gotta be
California fever's got a hold on me

V2
My girl speaks to me with her sunset eyes
Long blonde hair blowin' in the wind.

Fortune and fame is always the game.
Stake your claim before it drives you insane.
Where we live our best life out runnin' the fast lane


CH
California you and me in her sunshine
California is where I gotta be
California fever's got a hold on me

Bridge

My girl speaks to me with her sunset eyes
Long blonde hair blowin' in the wind.
Fortune and fame is always the game.
Stake your claim before it drives you insane.
Where we live our best life out runnin' the fast lane

CH
California you and me in her sunshine
California is where I gotta be
California fever's got a hold on me
California fever's got a hold on me......

NIGHT TIME LONELINESS

words & music
by
David Barker & Boots McCoy

V1
While I sit here by the window
In the middle of the night
I watch the light shining
On the corner of our street
Where we said our last good byes
Tho we really tried
I wished that he'd change his mind

Ch
Night Time Loneliness it takes over me
I can't seem to fight it
It's breakin' my heart but it shouldn't be
Night Time Loneliness
In this house all alone without you
This ring's on my hand
Babe your my man I need you with me

V2
Through these tears I see headlights
The clock strikes 4 am
You pulled into the driveway
I hear the car door slam
Through the house you run upstairs
To our bedroom
You take me in your arms and
Lay me down and love me again

Ch
Night Time Loneliness it's gone from me
I can't seem to fight it your pleasin' my heart
Like you oughta be
Night Time Loneliness means nothing to me
This feeling is grand babe your my man
Now your're here with me
Now your're here with me
No more Night Time Loneliness

V1
High upon her bar stool,
She's not waitin' for some darn fool
To come along and ask her for a dance
She will get acquainted, she's not complicated
She's not out to prove she still can
She's not out here cheatin', she's not out misleadin'
She's not lookin' for a One Night Man

CH
One Night Man, is not part of her plan
What she needs is one who understands
She's not lookin' for a One Night Man.

V2
Love's music and she plays pool
She's nobodies darn fool
She's been around the block a time or two
Downhome conversations, She's use to persuasions
She knows how the cowboys love to ride
She's always a lady, she don't need some lazy
Drunkin' foolish crazy One Night Man

CH
One Night Man, is not part of her plan
What she needs is one who understands
She's not lookin' for a One Night Man.

CH
One Night Man, is not part of her plan
What she needs is one who understands
She's not lookin' for a One Night Man
She's not lookin' for a One Night Man......

For many years there's been the girl who likes to settle down
All my luck the woman I meet like to fool around
I'd like to meet a gal whos got that passion with a spark
She'll take me to that place that takes me

CH

The same ole game of give and take, give and take some more
Then one day you cant hold on she walks right out the door
You don't give up you just give in, hope you've played it smart
You take her back with hope she takes you

CH
WO HO closer to the heart, WO HO closer to the heart,

IT'S ALL ABOUT LOVE

words & music
David Barker



V1 In the airport lounge she said hello to me
On the plane sat by me talkin'
Invitations that's all I heard
A new situation for me
Aging eyes her golden hair
Clothes that must cost a fortune
Ran in circles so new to me
Felt like high societies child
My unlined face my unsure mind
She knew I would be easy
Holes in my blue jeans and tennis shoes
She took advantage of me

CH It's all about love, It's all about love
It's all about love, that went wrong



V2 Saw New York threw its freezin' cold
Tennessee threw it's feelin'
Led me on still to london town
Till that bus stop I stood in the rain
Found myself back in the states once more
Tryin' to pick up the pieces
Guess she got what she wanted from me
She went her way I went mine,
I will never forget her, no no....


CH It's all about love, It's all about love
It's all about love, that went wrong


CH It's all about love, It's all about love
It's all about love, that went wrong
All about love, All about love
All about love, All about love.....

]VERSE 1] Another long and dragged out, day on the job
Waitin' for the weekend, to join that party mob
Headin' to a honky tonk where we can swing and sway,

]CHORUS] Dig out your two step dancin' shoes, put your boots on......
Meet us at that place, they kick there heals up, Where the atmosphere is great, plan on stayin' late,
Dig out your two step dancin' shoes, put your boots on......



]VERSE 2] We make quite a couple, me and my cowboy friend
We tare up the dancefloor, round and around again, gonna boot scoot, high step and sashay
Keep a fresh round of longnecks, and dance the night away

[CHORUS] Dig out your two step dancin' shoes, put your boots on......
Meet us at that place, they kick there heals up
Where the atmosphere is great, plan on stayin' late
Dig out your two step dancin' shoes, put your boots on......

No Turnin' Back

words & music by

Verse 1 Your tryin' not to like me and I know it
Your tryin' to ignore the way that you feel
I'm gonna get threw to you
If it's the last thing that I do
I won't stop until I make you mine


Chorus No turnin' back, no more excuses
You'll be glad you gave your heart to me
Don't be afraid, I won't abuse it
Give it up, there's no turnin' back


Verse 2 Your tryin' not to let yourself fall in love
Your tryin' to ignore the fact that you are
When it's all said and done
You won't have no place to run
But into my arms cus that's where you belong


Chorus No turnin' back, no more excuses
You'll be glad you gave your heart to me
Don't be afraid, I won't abuse it
Give it up, there's no turnin' back
Give it up, there's no turnin' back

Keep all your money if you feel it's enough
Nothing feels better than love

Rollin' down the highway with my radio on
Disc jockey's playin' are favorite song
Ya know all the words and you're singin' along
Nothin' feels better than love

Have you searched for the gold at the rainbows end
Ever buy a card you forgot to send
Is there anything warmer than the smile of a friend
Nothin' feels better than love

Nothin' feels better than fallin' in love
Nothin' feels better than love
Keep all your money if you think it's enough

PROMISE OF LOVE

words & music
by
David Barker




[Verse1
You're a man I'm a woman and
we're both hurting' me and you
It's the same sad situation
lovers often go threw
we were rapped up in the middle of
a feelin' that fit like a glove
It's time to rekindle our
promise of love

[Chorus]

We cant turn back we can't go on
pretending we just don't care
we were so lost in the feelin'
we took it for granted we'd always be there
It's time that you and I get it together
before push comes to shove
It's time to rekindle our
promise of love

[Verse2]

I was wrong you were foolish
we were childish you and me
we've lost all communication
Remember how it use to be
we're right back where we started from
lookin' for someone to love
It's time to rekindle our
promise of love


]Chorus]

We cant turn back we cant go on
pretending we just don't care
We were so lost in the feelin' we
took it for granted we'd always be there
It's time that you and I get it together
before push comes to shove
it's time to rekindle our
promise of love

It's time to rekindle our
promise of love
promise of love.....

ALL OR NOTHIN AT ALL

words & music

[VERSE 1]
I won't play second fiddle, monkey in the middle,
Or end up in second place
Next time around I'll make, sure I win the race,
I want all or nothin' at all

[VERSE 2]

I wont fall for a story, give up the glory
And not have a winning team
If love goes flat or blows up, or hits the wall I'll scream,
I want all or nothin' at all

[BRIDGE]

We can't depend on luck, it's up to me and you,
If we can set the pace, the checkered flags in view


VERSE 3
So we'll cruise nice n easy, we wont get greasy,
We'll turn in a record time
With your hand in mine I hope,
We can't find the finish line
I want all or nothin' at all
I want all or nothin' at all....

VERSE 4
So we'll cruise nice n easy, we wont get greasy,
We'll turn in a record time
With your hand in mine I hope,
We can't find the finish line
I want all or nothin' at all

Make Your Move On Me

[Verse1]
Sending a message far from, across the room
Actions can sometimes say it all
As of this moment you are, letting it show
It's me you want to get to know

[Chorus]
So, make your move on me
Louder than words, I see
What your intensions are
Will we go that far
Find out, make your move on me

V[erse2]
I'm gonna let you chase me, till I catch you
Soon they'll be no more holdin' back
It might appear that I'm not, that interested
Wait till we get behind closed doors

[Chorus]
So, make your move on me
Louder than words, I see
What your intensions are
Will we go that far
Find out, make your move on me
Find out, make your move on me.....

[Chorus]
So, make your move on me
Louder than words, I see
What your intensions are
Will we go that far
Find out, make your move on me
Find out, make your move on me.....

Doin' hard time, that's no way to feel
There ought to be a law
to keep from doin' hard time
keep from doin' hard time
keep from doin' hard time
