FABULOUS**
Fabulous
VERSE:
There I was trapped in a funk
When they came banging on my door
a few crazy fairy godfriends
their high heels clicking ‘cross my floor
they said we know you’re down hearted
feel like you’ve lost some of your light
but you’re not pity partying
on your couch again tonight
CHORUS:
cause we’re gonna shake it up
sparkle and shine
straighten up our crowns
and celebrate life
these storms will pass
so listen to us
girl don’t you go forgetting that
you are FABULOUS
VERSE:
they whipped out their bright lipstick
cold champagne, a little black dress
spritzed me with Chanel No. 5
brushed my hair out of it’s mess
said our lives can sure get sticky
hard things get thrown a ladies way
but each time the sun comes up again
we get another chance to SLAY
CHORUS:
yeah we’re gonna shake it up
sparkle and shine
straighten up our crowns
and celebrate life
these storms will pass
so listen to us
girl don’t you go forgetting that
you are FABULOUS
bridge:
girls of the world, here’s looking at you
and whatever it is you’re working through
CHORUS:
So we’re gonna shake it up
sparkle and shine
straighten up our crowns
and celebrate life
these storms will pass
so listen to us
girls don’t you go forgetting that
you are FABULOUS

A WHISKEY KIND OF LOVE
I should have known you were going to be
too hard to hold
When I saw you drinking doubles
in an empty bar
You were staring at the bottom of your glass
like it broke your soul
So I knew buying you another
wouldn’t get me far
When I sat down
you didn’t say a word
I ordered something strong
Thinking “this one’s gonna hurt”
This ain’t going down smooth
Its always harder than I think and it burns hot
A bit too much too soon
We’re gonna find out just how tough I’m not
Don’t waste my time with white wine, it’s not that kinda buzz
And beer ain’t get me numb enough
God help me this is gonna be
A whiskey kind of love
Every day and night after that one
was just a blur (alternate lyric: Left me in a daze)
Flying high in a love
that felt better than it should
And I knew I was digging a hole
that would be my grave
But I was in too deep to climb out
even if I could
When you packed your things
you didn’t say a word
I poured me something strong,
cause this was gonna hurt
This ain’t going down smooth
Its always harder than I think and it burns hot
A bit too much too soon
We’re gonna find out just how tough I’m not
My buddies say i’m better off, but the truth is i’m not sure
Why I’m missing you or missing what it was
God help me this was gonna be
God help me, this was always gonna be
God help me and set me free from
A whiskey kind of love
A whiskey kind of love --- END ---

TURN AROUND
TURN AROUND
©2016 Cari Lynn York / Don Goodman (360) 471-7220
V1 When this old world we're living on journeys around the sun,
part of us is left behind; part has just begun.
No one day we ever live determines who we'll be.
Yesterday I barely knew you; tomorrow you may not know me.
Ch Turn around and we were strangers;
turn around and we were friends;
turn around and now we're lovers
turning around again.
V2 The youthful pray the time will pass; the old beg it to stay.
Moments last a lifetime; years just slip away.
You and I will live and die, and all we'll really leave
fading footprints in the sand; precious memories.
Ch Turn around and we were strangers;
turn around and we were friends;
turn around and now we're lovers
turning around again.
Br I've heard each star in heaven is a heart that's come and gone.
And I pray someday we'll be the stars lovers wish upon.
Ch Turn around and they'll be strangers;
turn around and they'll be friends;
turn around and they'll be lovers
turning around again.

WASTED SUMMER
We got our feet hangin’ off
The back of the boat
Got the boat tied up to the others in the cove
Flags flyin’ in the wind
Lime on the rim
Tequila in our cups, reel ‘em in
It’s another wasted summer
Ain’t doin' much of nothin’
checkin’ boat lines, tan lines
Anchored out in paradise
Probly should be workin’
But hey, that ain’t workin'
So we’re hangin’ out getting’ drunk on life
Here’s to another wasted summer
We got the beer gettin’ cold
ahhh the girls, you know
Got the 30 SPORT out sprayin’ down head to toe
Ready for that sun-kissed skin
All summer long again
We’ll pour it in our cups, and reel it in
It’s another wasted summer
Ain’t doin' much of nothin’
checkin boat lines, tan lines
Anchored out in paradise
Probly should be workin'
But hey, that ain’t workin’
So we’re hangin’ out gettin’ drunk on life
Here’s to another wasted summer
Drippin’ off on the dock
Slippin on flip-flops
Tiki bar ain’t far
That’s where we go yall
After dark, Can’t let it end
Good times with good FRIENDS
It’s another wasted summer
Ain’t doin' much of nothin’
Just checkin boat lines, tan lines
Chillin’ in the moonlight
Probly should be goin’
But hey, the drinks are flowin’
So We’re hangin’ out gettin’ drunk all night
Here’s to another wasted summer

I want a straight shooter
Gotta be fun
Soon as I meet him I’ll know he is the one
Want a humble man ain’t afraid to dance
Two step the night away

Likes to work and go to church
Make the most of every day
It’s my George Strait daydream
Lookin’ for a country star
Big smile, stacked jeans, and he’ll play his guitar
Like an angel from heaven above
In the blue sky
A true gentleman he’ll like me for me
Small town love just shinin’
Like a George Strait daydream
Ooooo my George Strait daydream

Want a ropin’ ridin’
Goin’ all-in guy
The kind I always wanna have right by my side
Want a good ol’ boy who’ll make some noise
On a summer Saturday night

Cold beer on the weekend yeah
Singin’ songs and playin’ along
With stardust in his eyes
It’s my George Strait daydream
Lookin’ for country star
Big smile, stacked jeans, and he’ll play his guitar
Like an angel from heaven above
In the blue sky

THE OTHER SIDE OF MIDNIGHT
The Other Side Of Midnight
Been but a little while baby since you've been gone
Here in the early hours before darkness touches dawn
I found the brightest star and made a wish
That I don't spend another lonely night like this
Thinking bout your smile your laugh your touch your kiss I miss
(CHORUS)
Your yellow sun dress hair all in a mess but the prettiest girl I'd see
As you walked passed some guys you'd catch their eyes yet you were going home with me
But that was then now here I am all alone tonight
Things don't look the same when there's little light
On the other side of midnight
Seems I’m all caught up in a cruel twist of fate
I want to call you up in many ways it's much too late
I'm lying here trying to get some sleep
It's tough with a trace of your perfume still on my sheet
And visions playing in my head of you stuck on repeat
(CHORUS)

A WOMAN'S TOUCH
Verse 1:
Start another war to make a dollar
A daughter says goodbye to her father
And she don't know what it's all for
Another folded flag another mother
Just trying to keep her head above water
And live each day like she's okay
Pre-Chorus
So we don't need permission
Female is a not a condition
You can keep your old traditions
And save your oppositions
Let's start a conversation
And look at the situation
Take into consideration
That it's been the same for generations now
And we're still not out
Chorus:
The world is inside out
And upside down
I thought by now we'd figure it out but
Nothing's really changed much
I think it needs a woman's touch (x2)
Verse 2:
She walks into the room and they're staring
They only wanna know what she's wearing
And no one heard a single word
She doesn't understand why her lipstick
Has anything to do with her politics
Wasted time, there's people dying
Pre-Chorus

WHEN I AM IN YOUR ARMS
So soft you touch, a breath, a whisper
that calms the waves and soothes the storm
In your light, the darkness withers
the healing sun grows bright and warm
And all that rages in me subsides
as a heart of stone and ashes comes to life
I'm alive when I am in your arms
far away from all that weighs me down
When you smile, I have everything
my heart begins to sing
When I am in your arms
Like summer rain, gently dancing
comes to kiss the thirsty ground
When my soul is dry and empty
your tender love comes falling down
I'm alive when I am in your arms
far away from all that weighs me down
When you smile, I have everything
my heart begins to sing
When I am in your arms
In your arms, I am stronger
In your arms, I am free
I'm alive when I am in your arms
far away from all that weighs me down
When you smile, I have everything
my heart begins to sing
When I am in your arms
When I am in your arms

DRAWN TO THE NEON LIGHTS (FEAT. THE RUNNING MATES)
drawn to the neon lights
V1
In the neon bar light,
about half past twilight
She flutters in and settles
down Along the bar
he orders her a drink
he says it doesn't mean a damn thing
Oh, he Just wonders could he keep her
Keep her company
Chorus
And, Oh, the night can get so
lonely And they're
Back again
If only for a little while
When On and on, the silent night goes on
From the edge of dusk to dawn
They're drawn
Drawn to the neon lights
Verse 2
She said when her man left her
maybe God blessed her
The way he'd been treating her
It had to end
And Now she wants to travel
Head west and unravel
then lay beneath the redwoods
until she mends
Chorus
Bridge
across the world they live their lives
Do their best to feel alright
But sometimes a place alone
don't feel enough like home

Verse 1
Seems like yesterday you were just seven, your mother helped you try it on
Playin’ bride to be, in a gown that was way, way too long
She went out to the yard for some flowers, wove those daisies into the vale
My two girls at play, right down to their red fingernails
Pre chorus
Now you’re standin’ here all grown up, wearin’ her dress one more time
You’re takin’ me back to the moment that she became mine, and…
Chorus 1
The first time I saw that dress
I was holdin’ your mother close to my chest
It felt like the sky opened up, and lent me an angel for a while
Somethin’ old, somethin’ new, the memories sparkle as I’m dancin’ with you
Her satin and lace, seein’ her in your face, baby I am so blessed
You’re beautiful in her dress
Verse 2
I’m wonderfully lost in this moment, and I swore I could hold back the tears
But how can I not get misty eyed, when the last time I stood right here, was…
Chorus 2
The first time I saw that dress
I was holdin’ your mother close to my chest
It felt like the sky opened up, and lent me an angel for a while
Somethin’ old, somethin’ new, the memories sparkle as I’m dancin’ with you
Her satin and lace, seein’ her in your face, baby I am so blessed…
Bridge
She (She's) wanted nothing more than to see me give you away
In the dress she wore when she promised forever to me

The first time I saw this dress…

Yes you are
You’re beautiful in her dress
Baby girl, you look so beautiful in her dress
