AMERICAN CHILLBILLY

1. Country boy, out of touch, let the world go by
Bottlenecks, line 'em up, take the noise outside
Set me free like a river runs, I believe that everyone's
Got a right, got a voice, got to be free

Chorus: American Chillbilly
Laid back cat daddy strummin' on a banjo
Catchin' croppie on a cane pole
Checkin' out the fine fillies
Gonna pony on up, cut a rug on a dance floor
Hit a two-step, three-four
All the girls say one more, one more
Oh, American Chillbilly---Chillbilly

2. Steady ship, play it cool, put your ammo down
Light a smoke, share a smile, better pass it around
The pursuit of liberty, front porch swing tranquility
Wave it red, wave it white, with stars on blue

Repeat Chorus

Bridge: Set me free like a river runs, I believe that everyone's
Got a right, got a voice, got to be free
mister you, and me
American chillbilly

Tag Chorus:
Laid back cat daddy strummin' on a banjo
Pickin' perch off a cane pole
Checkin' out the fine fillies
Gonna pony on up, cut a rug on a dance floor
Hit a two-step, three-four
All the girls say one more, one more
Oh, American chillbilly----Chillbilly

Lyrics

BEAUTIFUL LIKE YOU

1) Baby you’re angel in disguise
floatin’ on a breeze just like a butterfly
that’s all I want – to be beautiful too – beautiful like you
baby you’re as catchy as a song
over and over – I play it all night long
that melody - it sings inside of me – but what really turns me on

CHORUS 1: It’s the way that you laugh….the way you cry
Sing out of tune when you harmonize
With the radio up….I can't get enough
It’s the way that you kiss me in the rain
And your eyes light up like sweet champagne
On a summer night…and you hold me tight
When love comes shining through
it’s beautiful like you

2) Now baby it comes as no surprise
I can say the right words…but only you can make em rhyme
You’re the poetry – that moves inside of me – but what gets me everytime

CHORUS 2: It’s the way that you walk….the way you run
When you roll your eyes and smack your gum
with that silly grin...girl you pull me in
It’s the way that you dance when we're all alone
Text me at work on the telephone
Just to say hello...I miss you so
When love comes shining through…
it’s beautiful like you

BRIDGE: (you) and me…will always be together….love keeps getting better...Each and every day….but what I really want to say

HOME WITH YOU
1. Late in the evening, when they turn down the lights

Here’s come that feeling, yeah it happens everytime

My heart is sailing to a perfect world

When I’m home with you girl

2. This ole piano, is like a trusted friend

It holds the keys to all the places I have been

But no matter where I go it’s true

I’m always home with you

CHORUS: round and round the world keep turning

Love’s a lesson were all learning – as we go along

Words go often left unspoken, but honey I was somehow hoping

You could hear them – in this song

3. Life's like a circus, moving town to town

Girl don’tcha worry when they take that big top down

when I’m on the road don’t be blue

Cause I’m always home with you

CHORUS

4. So close your eyes baby, here’s a kiss goodnight

Say a little prayer and tuck yourself in real tight

And when you dream I’ll be dreaming too

Cause I’m always home with you

but I’m always home with you

SHARING CHRISTMAS WITH YOU

Plays: 1

Lyrics

1) Bells keep ringing in the the city square
and we'll soon see Santa's face.
Icicles hang from a treetop sky
like stockings by the fireplace.
There is reason for this cheerful season
that warms me through and through,
cause the best ole' thing, this year could ever bring,
is Sharing Christmas With You.

2) A bobsled ride, with children who slide,
down a hill of icy snow.
While a houseful of folks, are tellin' jokes
and stories we already know.
Kids are anxious, grandparents so gracious,
families are renewed,
but the best thing yet, is what I'll get,
Sharing Christmas With You.

Bridge: I used to be lonely this time of year,
holidays gave me the blues
but I found reason, for this cheerful season,
and what this moment can do.

Tag: Ya’ my heart will get a lift, from my favorite gift
Sharing Christmas with You.

1) When you call my name in the middle of the night

and we get into a pillow fight

Girls you know it shakes me

Theres no need to wonder

You can count on me girl

Til the end of the world

2) When your all curled up on the couch with your favorite

book and you give me that come here look

There’s no hesitation

Deep down in my soul

Something deep inside it move me

Girl you know it shakes me

I can’t let it go

Repeat chorus

always and forever,

MISSISSIPPI RAIN

Lyrics

Kiss one more kiss I never got the chance

a victim of a circumstance tearing us apart, apart

Girl girl I feel haunted by a memory

Branded for eternity with your love your love

Standing all alone in the Mississippi Rain

Crying like a child praying that you’ll come home

But it’s much too late

Once upon a time, girl we had it all

Living on a dream, but dreams get washed away

In the Mississippi Rain

Tell I could tell something must be wrong

girl when I got the call I crumbled to my knees God please

Lights flashing lights on a flooded street

I could hear the sirens scream in the night in the night

Standing all alone in the Mississippi Rain

Crying like a child…praying that you’ll hold on

But it’s much too late

Once upon a time, girl we had it all

Living on a dream, but dreams get washed away

In the Mississippi Rain

it gets so lonely
here without you
but I know you’re in a better place

With your girlfriends talking thought I’d get a little closer

Backstory

fun alligator song ala Ole' Red

Lyrics

In a shotgun shack on a Louisiana swamp
There’s a hot bombshell in a tight tank top
She’s gotta a pet alligator named Sawtooth
you’d better watch your step cuz he waitin’ on you
A frat-house city boy from New Orleans
Came calling one night on this cajun queen
It was a steamy hot night,
when the lights when out,
You never heard a city boy scream so loud
Beggin for mercy in the black bayou
Chalk another one up to ole SAWTOOTH
From an alligator farm to that Creole crib
She raised him up just like her own kid
12 feet long all jaws and tail
A black & decker power tool with slimey green scales
The warden got a call about a gator gone wild
couldn’t wait to get his hands on that killer crocodile

It was a steamy hot night,
blue lights flashed out
You never heard a LAW DOG scream so loud
Beggin for mercy in the black bayou
Chalk another one up to ole SAWTOOTH

the gator lost his life but the warden did too
Some say its just a legend and if you need proof

On those steamy hot nights,
when you’re headed down South
You’d better watch your step when the lights go out
That hot bombshell's working her voodoo
with a baby alligator SON of you know who
Chalk another one up to ole SAWTOOTH
Chalk another one up to old SAWTOOTH

Like sparks in the night on the fourth of July

CHORUS: We got the real thing

I gotta fine feeling and it keeps on growing

Call it fate call it hope call it luck

got your greeting cards & singles bars & seminars with relationship experts
Well people these days they chase the latest trends
if love’s what they’re after well baby I’m in

CHORUS: We got the real thing
now we caught that fever
stealing a kiss underneath the bleachers
an old country song on a new set of speakers
tunin in - like a long lost friend

CHRISTMAS TIME TO ME

1. Who needs a ride with a reindeer
who needs a sleigh in the snow
Tell Santa Clause he can put it on pause
we dont need his ho ho ho
Who needs another turkey dinner
or presents under the tree
Cause whenever youre near
any day of the year
Its like Christmas time to me

2. Take down the holly and ivy
silence those old silver bells
Our love is so bright
we dont need twinkle lights
put em back in the box on the shelf
Dont let those icycles fool ya
theyre as plastic as plastic can be
But whenever youre near
any day of the year
Its like Christmas time to me

BRIDGE:
No need for mistletoe
our lips found a reason for kissin
Who needs a package with a bow
when love is the gift that youre giving
(instrumental)
No need for mistletoe
our lips found a reason for kissin
What a wonderful miracle
when love is the gift that youre giving

3. Dont need more holiday shopping
or a snowman out on the lawn
We celebrate
every hour of the day
we fa la la our own little song
now everyones got their traditons
but baby I choose to believe
whenever youre near
every day of the year
Its like Christmas time to me

whenever youre here Im full of holiday cheer
Its like Christmas time to me

1) I saw a U-Haul van in the parking lot
the plates said New Jersey
She was carrying in a microwave and an LCD TV
I said welcome to the Peabody apartments
honey you just purtied up this ole town

She said I’m not quite sure what you just said
But I sure like the way it sounds…..
and I said thank ya maam

CHORUS: It Aint Nothing but a Twang…
southern comfort running through my veins
A little Charlie Pride, Mama tried, dixie-fied rhythm and blues
Let me spell it for ya…C-O-U N-T-R
Y baby why baby why
It’s a natural thing…oh it Aint Nothing but a Twang

2) 2 weeks later on the elevator
we got stuck between two floors
I turned on the charm and I flexed my arms
and I finally pried open dem doors

She smiled and said “you’re my hero”
come on over for a couple of beers
The way you bend those words and you use that slurr….
it music to my ears

Bridge: Now we're packing for a honeymoon vacation
heading south down to San Antone
and late at night when I hold her tight
man ya oughta hear her moan

the waves fall to his voice
and heaven and earth exhalt his name
and feel his breath upon your face

Bake biscuits like your mother
And rock like Marshall Tucker

I can’t explain how she uses that twang
But it rattles my brain, I’m going insane

Cuts a trail like Davy Crocket
Man she can really knock it
Like an 8 ball in the pocket

IT'S LOVE YOU TIME
music & lyrics by Jerry Glidewell

1) While the moon waits up for morning,
you awake me without warning
I once again I find, it's love you time.

As I listen to you breathing,
you caress me with such feeling
heaven gives a sign, its love you time.

Before we met, I never even knew,
how to love, without acting like a fool.
But now I know, I finally found the truth, loving you.

2) As the sunlight slowly rises,
this lucky heart girl, realizes
the past is way behind, it's love you time.

There've been others, who've looked inside,
and found a heart, full of empty pride
and your the one, whose made my life, so right.

3) The clock keeps counting on forever,
and with you girl it just get's better
cause always in my mind, it's love you time,
love you time, love you time....

LONELY AVENUE

1) Now the party - the party’s over

but the crying’s - just begun

Oh the teardrops – fall like raindrops

From my brown eyes – feeling so blue

It ain’t the first time – but it’s the worst time

Walkin’ LONELY AVENUE

2) The sound of goodbye - it cuts like a razor

And it bleeds - boy it bleeds you dry

Oh the heartache – it’ such a heartbreak

When you think – of all we’ve been through

Wishing what could be – running on empty

Walkin’ LONELY AVENUE

Bridge: Those memories keep calling – as night time is falling

On this run down boulevard

The juke joints are closing – hey nobody’s open

This ole’ ghost town – it feel’s like my heart

3) All things considered – there’s always tomorrow

My friends try to tell me – everything’s gonna be just fine

I give em my best smile – I go the extra mile

But you and I – we know the truth

This is a tough one – losing your someone

1) Out in the woods where the gettin’ is good
There’s a tavern not found in your neighborhood
Your chair is a stomp and the bar’s made of stone
Mother nature is there so we never drink alone
On Friday nights blasting Dixie delight
Comes an 89 caddie with a keg of bud light
a hillbilly hottie, she ain’t no tease
Got me down on my knees saying please-pretty-please

CHORUS: Tap that – crank up the Flatts
Sipping them suds in your daddy’s Cadillac
Parked down under that ole’ river bridge
She shaking that Butterfly Tat we jump in the back
I’m an ole coon dog she’s an alley cat
Don’t make me crawl don’t make be beg
Let me tap that -- BEER KEG

2) The moon and stars really light up the yard
so we make a little music with our air guitars
gonna keep things green gonna get in touch
with the frogs and crickets and the lightning bugs
You can find you a friend in the campfire light
and the girls get crazy just about midnight
shakin their stuff to David Alan Coe
and the guys raise a glass and make a toast - singing

BRIDGE: so we gonna take a walk --down the nature trail,
like big game hunters – gonna chase a little tail

Play some jingle bell rock and rockaround the Christmas tree
Plug in some twinklely lights….lets make the season bright
Grab your coat and toboggan, cover up your noggin
Cause we’re going to a snowball fight

Bridge: well the clock clicks a little bit slower
When the weeks come to a crawl
But the 25th is getting mighty closer
So it ain’t no problem at all

with some buddies on a college spring break

now here I am in Maria's, and there she goes again

1)Lost in the dust where a tanker burns down an old dirt road
In the desert heat he can smell the smoke
Camouflage pants with blood stained knees and his best friends tags
The last thing he said brother I got your back
What a flashback it’s a moment in time that he can’t forget

CHORUS: But ON A GOOD DAY when he wakes up
He can roll outta bed and barely feel the pain
ON A GOOD DAY he can think straight
though the battle rages on he can somehow find the strength
Down deep in his soul there’s a little bit of hope
ON A GOOD DAY

2)There’s a white picket fence wrapped around a house in the middle of town
It’s a quiet streetwhen the sun goes down
It’s 3 a.m. and he just passed out on the living room floor
His wife gets up says I can’t take much more
With tears in his eyes he swears he’s gonna change

CHORUS: Cause On a good day when he wakes up
He can roll outta bed and barely feels the pain
On a good day he can think straight
he can hold on tight even when he’s got the shakes
Down deep in his soulthere’s a little bit of hope
ON A GOOD DAY

Bridge: Now rehab it ain’t easy
it’s a long hard fight
And the price of war is steep
when it kills you to survive

Tag: But on a GOOD DAY he can stand up
to the man in the mirror and finally face the pain
Down deep in his soul there’s a little bit of hope
He can put down the drink look you in the eye
hug his kids kiss his wife
though the battle rages on he can somehow find the strength
to put the past away
ON A GOOD DAY.....Oh On A GOOD DAY……

WIN THE DAY

1. When the world keeps kicking you down - and you’re losing your ground

And you can’t make it out of the trenches

When you’re flat on the floor – and you cut to the core

And they’re testing all your defenses

We’re gonna rise up / this is our battle cry

Come on stand tough / this time it’s do or die

CHORUS: We - are gonna set this world on fire

We’re gonna win the day

Hold on – be strong – you know it won’t be long

PLAYTHING by Chad Roland & Jerry Glidewell © 2017

1) 8 o’clock - on the dot - looking hot – in my red dress
And the phone rings - I got your number
Got a date - boy your late – shoot me straight - my friends says
You’ve been cheatin – kissing another
If that how it is - baby you should know this

Chorus: I’m not a plaything - I’m not one of your toys
You don’t have strings - Wrapped around my heart boy
What a crying shame – love ain’t a game – a game of pretend – where nobody wins
Mama told me – don’t be naïve
Life ain’t all roses - in a land of make believe
Where we tip-toe – under rainbows – now you know
I’m not a plaything

2) What a tease - on your knees – beggin’ please – whose crying now
You whisper you love me – Oh baby I’m sorry
I’ve made up my mind – I’ll tell you one more time

Too Much Is Never Enough

Lyrics

1. They got a big neon facing the street -- $ 8.99 all you can eat

SUV’s lining up the lot -- got some heavy hitters, licking their chops

see the man on the curb with a sign - “I’ll work for food”

they say he ain’t worth nothing - and he smells like booze

While the people inside are just stuffin on seconds - pulling their britches up

We’re all standing in a buffet line - Too Much Is Never Enough

2. She’s got bo-tox needles and a spray on tan --smoothin them wrinkles trying to please her man

They say Dr. Roberts he can get you in shape --a little nip and tuck goes a long long way

See the little girls play double-dutch in the neighbors yard

Everybody’s invited – no matter who you are

We’re all mixing up a Percocet cocktail – addicted to the latest drug

Dr. Roberts just one more prescription - Too Much is Never Enough

3. Wall Streets a buzzin – markets on the rise – corporate corruption is driving up the price

Declare bankruptcy – mortgage your home – or pay off them bills with a student loan

while all the old folks are waitin on a check from Uncle Sam

working their whole lives --- doing the best they can

While the president is checkin out a penthouse suite – and waiting on a lobster lunch

Theres a oil rig pumping in a middle east desert – too much is never enough

4. There’s a preacher on TV in a 3 piece suit – says send me $ 20 dollars and I’ll pray for you

If you can spare a little more – think of what you’ll get – flying up to heaven in a chariot

See the son of God – he aint got a place to lay his head

He said seek me first – but they killed him dead – oh how the savior bled

While the TV preachers puffin on a cigar – Lord he’s got the Midas touch

Paying off his jet with some widow’s – Too much is never enough

You better walk in the light & hang on to love – Cause too much is never enough

YOUR CHILD

Can I sit with you a while
Hiding from the pain – one thing will remain
Lord I’ll always be your child

But your grace – flows for miles and miles
When I am alone – you gently lead me home
Lord I’ll always be your child

bridge: And when I fall
you pick me up and make me whole again – take me as I am
With every doubt
You shine a light deep inside my soul
You take control – and I know who I am – who I am

3) Resting in the arms of my father
Away from every bitter trial
When I’m weak you’re strong – I know where I belong
Lord I’ll always be your child
Jesus died for me – there on Calvary

Race out the door with just a kiss on the cheek

Got a text from an ex - boy she broke my heart
Ordered up two doubles - I’m a single man
Johnny Walkers runnin’ wild in a country line dance
now if you got a problem start walking
stop jawing - smack talking -

Twerking like a Texas twister - let me tell ya mister
might just take her on home
and burn it down with a night of fireball kisses
It’s none of your Whiskey – business

2. Guy and a gal kicked back in a booth
now she’s making eyes - at you who
I could tell when she licked that salt on the rim
She blew me a kiss - so I moved on in
now that music was pumping she’s bumping
on something - hearts jumping
that dog keeps barking in my ear

Party in bacardi all night
Don’t concern yourself - if we drain the well

Another thirsty soul at Jacob’s well

She met the master – the living water

She said Lord I could use some help

He said trust in me

And don’t’cha dare go lean on yourself

Chorus: You gotta take it to the man from Galilee

Hang it on the cross of Calvary

There’s a river flowing that’ll wash your sins away

When it feels like redemption can’t be found

And you’ve been searchin’ for some holy ground

Fold your hands in prayer – get down on your knees

And take it to the MAN FROM GALILEE

2. There was a beggar – poor blind beggar

On a rocky road to Jericho

He said have mercy – Lord I’m unworthy

Could you shine your lovin’ light in my soul

Jesus touched his eyes

So the whole wide world would know

Something ‘bout a red puts your mind at ease
Throw away the bills and the heartaches too

2. Sometimes a woman needs to be alone
Turn off the world and the telephone
When the demons come calling don’t you dare forget
There’s a sanctuary in a cigarette

But what don’t kill you….makes you stronger
Girl my man he pitched his tent in paranoia
You know mama can’t take it any longer

Daddy take the kids to the Chucky Cheese
Red lipstick on a champagne glass
Gonna light one up in a bubble bath

but what don’t kill you….makes you stronger
someday I’ll quit this habit that I’m feeding
and I’ll start breathing, ain’t getting any younger

Take a slow long drag and blow a little steam
dogs nipping at your heels and you’ve had enough
just let it all go with one more puff

holding on hope as we walk this promise land

waiting on that glory train from somewhere up above

With a baseball glove…in a dodger cap

set the world on fire….with a smile like that

kissed you after gym class

Couple skating on a fast track

Now they boarded up the church where you walked down

the aisle and said “I do”

I didn’t have a clue – that I was losing you

Every turn leads straight to your memory

Fogging up the windows - in my old camaro

hearts were pounding to the radio

now I’m driving down main & I’m feeling out of place

smack dab in the middle of yesterday

every step every stop every corner on the block keeps calling -

girl the whole town’s talking

2. There’s that city water tower where I painted your name

two wild & crazy young kids

I saw your cousin at the diner – had a picture on her phone

We were jumping from that old bridge

She said your mama passed away – so I stopped by

her grave - Now I can’t lie

Tears filled my eyes – when I said goodbye

hearts were pounding to the radio

1) Now here I am, trying to say goodbye

no matter the reason, I still have to try

and I want you to know,

it’s so hard to let you go

and I wish that we could talk just one more time

CHORUS: If I could fly all the way to heaven

I would know, that you’re okay

I could see your face and hear your voice

and be right by your side

if I could fly, all the way to heaven

2) They say it happens to everyone who lives

that the end of the road, it comes to this

but I know there is more

when you walk through that door

you will find a place, to rest your soul

repeat chorus

bridge: the angels sing welcome home

with one accord

hand in hand walking down those streets of gold

with the lord

repeat chorus

CONVERTIBLE SUMMER by Chad Roland & Jerry Glidewell © 2024

1. Turning this truck – picking up that song on the station

her memory dances like fire - and my heart keeps racin’

to August nights - and dashboard lights - at two a.m.

This Chevrolet is miles away - from where I’ve been

CHORUS: I can see her now - in our little home town

With her hair in wind and the top rolled down

throwing dust flying high in her daddy’s Thunderbird

Taking that long ride - she and I – yah we swore forever

then we crashed & burned - and I should have learned

But I still keep driving that CONVERTIBLE SUMMER

– yah – yah – CONVERTIBLE SUMMER

2. She was back seat driving – swerving all over my body

Losing control with stars shining down – ain’t it funny

How time moves on – it seems so long – but then again

If she came cruising in that car – I’d climb on in

REPEAT CHORUS

TAG: Running down to the river when the days got hot

She’s losing them jeans and her red tank top

Not a care in the world – when you jump in head first

Taking that long ride - she and I – yah we swore forever

then we crashed & burned - and I should have learned

But I still keep driving that CONVERTIBLE SUMMER

yah – yah – CONVERTIBLE SUMMER

HILLBILLY SHAKESPEARE

Plays: 2

Backstory

powerful anthem and tribute to Hank Williams Sr.

Lyrics

1. Now the hillbilly Shakespeare rolls into town

Cadillac clapping like a thunder cloud

Picking like the devil on a Martin guitar

Nudie suit shining like a neon star

Twistin’ them love-sick tunes

King of the back wood blues

CHORUS: He haunts the Opry Stage on Saturday nights

Bourbon Whiskey in the air stomping out the foot lights

with that Alabama twang - says it’s good to be alive in Music City (Music City)

Oh the drifting cowboys kick it on in - like an old freight train T-Tot & the band

Gonna rock your soul with a great big grin - shouting HEY GOOD LOOKIN’

He sings his son-on-on-ong - with that Honky Tonk mo-oh-oh-oan

There’s a cry in the steel - like a lonesome whipporwill - when the music sends a chill

It’s the Hill-bill-y Shakespeare - Ah Hail the Hill-billy Shakespeare

2. Kawliga sat down and he ordered up a beer

Saying what’s that music that’s you’re playing in here

Hank walked in the door - left the place in shock

pulled out a pistol and he shot the juke box

Twistin’ them love-sick tunes

King of the back wood blues

REPEAT CHORUS / lead

TAG: He sings his song-on-on-ong - with that Honky Tonk mo-oh-oh-oan

There’s a cry in the steel - like a lonesome whipporwill - when the music sends a chill

It’s the Hill-bill-y Shakespeare – (Ah Hail the Hill-billy Shakespeare)

Now the hillbilly Shakespeare rolls into town - Cadillac clapping like a thunder cloud

1. Another late night call - now you’re feelin’ so blue

dialing my number - don’t know what to do

say you need a friend - cause baby – your baby walked out

Truth is he’s not the type - for settling down

but I’ll bet you know somebody

who would always be around

there’s a light in the dark

If Your Heart Could See Me Now

Chorus: If Your Heart Could See Me Now

Some way some where some how

Don’t call it an obstacle - anything’s possible

We can work it out

If forever’s on your mind - honey all I got is time

so your looking for passion - girl let’s make it happen

Just open up your eyes

I’d be the luckiest guy in town

If Your Heart Could See Me Now

2) There’s a million little things - I could name em’ one by one

like the way you roll your eyes girl - when your sisters on the phone

yeah this could be the start

If Your Heart Could See Me Now

Lyrics

1. I should be running from those red flags
You got me losing my defenses
And when I try to sing a new song
You find a way to put the moves on

B SECTION: Going crazy with your tender touches
Oh baby when the fever rushes
Hypnotized – in your eyes
Always lived life by the letter
Boy ya think that I’d know better
But your kisses steal away my heart
How did I let things go so far

2. I should be running from those red flags
How do you make me want you so bad
It’s a sticky situation
But that’s another conversation

B SECTION: Going crazy with your tender touches
Oh baby when the fever rushes
Hypnotized – no surprise
I’ve spent too much time hoping
Yeah I know I should get going
your kisses steal away my heart
How did I let things go so far

(lead)

Bridge: Maybe tonight we can work things out
Find a way to clear away those clouds
Talk about the things you don’t wanna talk about – baby

3. I should be running from those red flags
You got me losin’ my Defenses
And when I try to sing a new song
You find a way to put the moves on
How do you make me want you so bad…
I should be running from those Red flags - Red Flags
I should be running…. I should be running from those Red flags

Lyrics

KEMOSABE

1. There's a honky-tonk in Texas, they call the swinging door
that juke box is pumpin', they're shaking on the floor
them cowboys play it cool, girls are hot, doing shots all night long
He rides a painted pony, he leaves a cloud of dust
All the men are filled with envy, all the ladies fall in love
Hearts go pounding like thunder, mister when he turns it on

[Chorus]
You're killing it, Kemosabe
Saddle up and blaze a trail
Throw back that firewater, Windwalker
Cut loose and raise some hell
Room full of them hotel hotties shaking to that mariachi
he says girl, let's blow this party, lone ranger needs somebody
Come on baby, let's have some fun, making love in that desert sun
Hi-yo silver, your so money, killing it, oh Kemosabe
You're killing it, Kemosabe

2. Kemosabe got caught with a golden-haired girl
They met down by the river where the water meets the world
her daddy was a cop, pulled a gun, he said son don't come back
Kemosabe just smiled, put his boots back on
climbed up on his pony, turned around and he was gone
That neon keeps calling, another broken heart in his path

[Chorus]
You're killing it, Kemosabe
Saddle up and blaze a trail
Throw back that firewater, Windwalker
Cut loose and raise some hell
Room full of them hotel hotties shaking to that mariachi
he says girl, let's blow this party, lone ranger needs somebody
Come on baby, let's have some fun, making love in that desert sun
Hi yo silver, you're so money, killing it, oh Kemosabe

You're killing it, Kemosabe
You're killing it, Kemosabe
Killing it, killing it, Kemosabe

Pretty paper wrapping we love packing gift boxes

I wanna start a new trend spend the Holiday In Your Arms

Chorus: oooh – Holiday in your arms

Lyrics

I'll Carry the Cross

1. You paid the price –
the act of redemption on Calvary
Your sacrifice –
blameless perfection nailed to a tree–
Lord the least I can do
Is to live life for you
Lifting your name on high
Chorus:
And I’ll carry the cross to the highest part of the mountain
If you call me to go to the valley below - Lord I’ll go
In the day – thru the night - God I’m shining the light
To a world that’s weary and lost
Where ever you lead – I’ll carry the cross

2. You told us the way
to show all nations your wondrous love
The power of grace - giving us wings
We can fly like a dove
Lord your sweet invitation
Divine revelation
Burns like a candle inside

Repeat Chorus

Bridge: when the load gets heavy & the journey so hard
And the road seems rocky & long
Your tender mercy – lord Jesus is
Leading me home

Backstory

profound story about life and relationships

Lyrics

1. Are you lonely – do you miss someone so much it cuts down deep
Are you angry – while the war keeps raging on and you pray for peace
Does your heart get bitter when the rich get richer and the poor get left behind
Doesn’t make much sense – how’d it come to this

CHORUS: Don’t ask me why I’m a passenger
I’ve got no stones to throw
Just one more train for this troubador
I’ll sing my song – I’ll carry on
Searchin’ for the answer – I am a passenger

2. Are you empty – does a bottle hide those demons that haunt your soul
Do you question – why some hold on and some just let it go
Can you find some meaning in the dreams your dreamin’ when you close your eyes at night
Have you lost your way – will it ever change

CHORUS: Well I don’t know I’m a passenger
I’ve got no stones to throw
Just one more train for this troubador
I’ll sing my song – I’ll carry on
Searchin’ for the answer – I am a passenger

BRIDGE: Just one more trip around the sun
Another chance to touch someone
In the name of love

This thing called life we are passengers
No you are not alone
As we sojourn in a beautiful – world turnin’ round the sun
we’ll carry on ---til we get home – searching for the answer
I am a passenger….we are passengers….
