Guys, there’s nothing you do we can’t do, too Can plant fields, fish in cricks, and even fix roofs We ride tractors and brush hogs, drive pickup trucks And best believe we get the hay put up But we know, it’s a tricky line you gotta walk So here’s a clue ‘bout what we want [chorus] Treat us the same, only different Ain’t nothin wrong with special treatment We won’t get offended if you give us your seat No, that don’t make us delicate or weak Don’t worry bout what it is or what it isn’t Just treat us the same, only different Treat us the same, only different We like watchin football, shootin pool, drinkin wine Like dirty jokes, partyin hard, stayin out all night Don’t mind if you watch us walkin down the street Just keep your hands to yourself, boys, play sweet It’s no secret by now cause you’ve all heard We ain’t living in your mama’s world [chorus] [b] We don’t expect you to pick up every tab Call us ma’am or take off your hat Hope we’ve cleared up that [chorus]

There was no santa claus, no wreath or fancy decorations Just us three little kids who made our own celebration Poor Mama did her very best to give life to our dreams When she put those goodies on our tiny Christmas tree Tiny Christmas tree so beautiful with your twinkling string of lights Every Christmas brought us hope and made our world look bright Oh we will never forget the joy that we would feel When mama decorated that tiny Christmas tree Tiny Christmas tree just 3 feet tall with candy canes to share In a corner by the window on a little wooden chair Second hand angel on top for everyone to see How we loved those cookies and choc-late drops so sweet Repeat chorus: Bridge: Now we are all grown up with children of our own We each have two Christmas trees that decorate our homes One big special one with many presents underneath And another to remember mama's tiny Christmas tree Repeat chorus: Tag: Oh we will never forget you, tiny Christmas tree •

Something To Hold On To. In a distant memory i heard my mama callin' me Honey, it's time to come in and eat As we bow our heads and say our grace She says, keep your god and your good name and I'm right back in that special place cuz Chorus: It gives me something to hold on to Keeps me strong and gets me through Sometimes life's just gonna hurt, so Those memories are where I turn, yeah That feeling always comes to my rescue I've got something to hold on to In a distant memory, I heard my daddy tellin' me Drive careful now as he tossed me his car keys Be kind and patient along the way Cause it's what you give, not what you take and I'm right back in that special place ..cuz Repeat chorus: Bridge: Went from pink hair bows and painted toes To old blue jeans and teenage dreams And all too soon was out there on my own I cherish all the things they had to say 'Cause they made me who I am today..no Pre Chorus: I wouldn't trade a single minute cuz I close my eyes and I'm right there in it Repeat chorus: Tag: Yeah, I've got something to hold on to.
