Murder on Music Row
Alan Jackson and George Strait
Nobody saw them running
From 16th Avenue
They never found the fingerprints
Or the weapon that was used
But someone killed country music
Cut out its heart and soul
They got away with murder
Down on music row
The almighty dollar
And the lust for worldwide fame
Slowly killed tradition
And for that, someone should hang ("Ahh, you tell 'em Alan")
They all say "Not Guilty!"
But the evidence will show
That murder was committed
Down on music row
For the steel guitars no longer cry
And the fiddles barely play
But drums and rock 'n' roll guitars
Are mixed up in your face
Ol' Hank wouldn't have a chance
On today's radio
Since they committed murder
Down on music row
They thought no one would miss it
Once it was dead and gone
They said no one would buy them ol'
Drinkin' and cheatin' songs ("Oh, but I still buy 'em")
Well there ain't no justice in it
And the hard facts are cold
Murder's been committed
Down on music row
For the steel guitars no longer cry
And you can't hear fiddles play
With drums and rock 'n' roll guitars
Mixed right up in your face
Why the Hag wouldn't have a chance
On today's radio
Since they committed murder
Down on music row
Why they even tell the Possum
To pack up and go back home
There's been an awful murder
Down on music row

Nice choice Facey
Baby Blue
George Strait
She looked so much like a lady
But she was so much like a child
The devil when she held me close
An angel when she smiled
She always held it deep inside
But somehow I always knew
She'd go away when the grass turned green
And the sky turned baby blue
Baby Blue was the color of her eyes
Baby Blue, like the Colorado skies
Like a breath of Spring, she came and left
And I still don't know why
So, here's to you, and whoever holds my Baby Blue, tonight
She brought colors to my life
That my eyes had never touched
When she taught me how to care
I never cared so much
I try not to think of her
But I fall asleep and do
And drift off where the grass is green
And the sky is baby blue

Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me?
Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Tears fill my eyes 'till I can't see
3 o'clock in the morning, here am I
Sitting here so lonely, so lonesome I could cry
Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me?
Now that it's over, I realize
Those weak words you wispered, were nothing but lies
Blue
Oh, so lonesome for you
Why can't you be blue over me?
Why can't you be blue over me?

She's Got The Rhythm (And I Got The Blues)
(Alan Jackson/Randy Travis)
This old bar stool's feelin' higher
'Cause I've started sinkin' lower
The minute that she waltzed right through that door
Not long ago I held her, like a fool I went and left her
Now she's with somebody new out on that floor
And she's got the rhythm and I got the blues
And she's showin' me how much I had to lose
With her every little move she's tellin' me I'm over you
She's got the rhythm and I've got the blues
Well that music's gettin' louder
As my heart keeps beatin' faster
As she spells out regret in perfect time
Well I thought I wanted freedom but that ball and chain I need 'em
'Cause when you choose sometimes you lose the prize
'Cause she's got the rhythm and I got the blues
And she's showin' me how much I had to lose
With her every little move she's tellin' me I'm over you
She's got the rhythm and I've got the blues
Yeah with her every little move she's tellin' me I'm over you
She's got the rhythm and I got the blues

Funny I was just listening to that song 5 minutes ago
Lovesick Blues
(written by Irving Mills and Cliff Friend)
Hank Williams Sr.
(Chorus)
I got a feelin' called the blues oh Lord
Since my baby said goodbye
And I don't know what I'll do
All I do is sit and sigh oh Lord
That last long day she said goodbye
Well Lord I thought I would cry
She'll do me, she'll do you, she's got that kind of lovin'
Lord, I love to hear her when she calls me
Sweet daddy, such a beautiful dream
I hate to think it all over
I've lost my heart it seems
I've grown so used to you somehow
Well, I'm nobody's sugardaddy now
And I'm lonesome
I got the Lovesick Blues
Well, I'm in love, I'm in love, with a beautiful gal
That's what's the matter with me
Well, I'm in love, I'm in love, with a beautiful gal
But she don't care about me
Lord, I tried and I tried, to keep her satisfied
But she just wouldn't stay
So now that she is leavin'
This is all I can say

I'D LIKE TO HAVE THAT ONE BACK
George Strait
I heard somebody speak her name; they said she still was looking fine.
And I could feel that same old flame I once felt when she was mine.
Always thought that I was missin' something, but I found out much too late.
There'll never be another who'll love me that way.
Chorus:
I'd like to have that one back, never known someone so true.
And a love that pure and sweet is what a man should never lose.
And if my lips had said, "I'm sorry",
She might have stopped right in her tracks.
But now I find my poor heart saying,
"I'd like to have that one back."
I can almost see her standing there, tears rollin' down her face.
As she packed away her memories in that old worn out suitcase.
If I'd only known then what I know now, I'd never opened that door.
Oh they just don't make hearts like hers anymore.
Chorus:
I'd like to have that one back, I've never known someone so true.
And a love so pure and sweet is what a man should never lose.
And if my lips had said, "I'm sorry",
She might have stopped right in her tracks.
I wouldn't hear my poor heart saying,
"I'd like to have that one back."
I wouldn't hear my poor heart saying,
"I'd like to have that one back."

What I Need To Do
Kenny Chesney
I keep tellin myself this is the right thing to do
I was wastin her time, waitin on dreams that just weren't comin true
And this old highway seems to understand
Leadin me on to somewhere that no one knows my name
I got the window rolled down, I got the radio up
I'm doin all that I can to get my mind off us
What I need to do is turn this car around
Drive as fast as I can til I see the lights of our hometown
And run to her, take her in my arms
Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard
But I drive on, and on, and on
Eighty-seven more miles gets me into Baton Rogue
There's a buddy of mine who says he might find some work that I can do
Or maybe head up north to Knoxville, Tennessee
I know my baby sister, has got a couch where I can sleep
Now the sun's goin down on my broken heart
Lord, I gotta get bak before I go too far
What I need to do is turn this car around
Drive as fast as I can til I see the lights of our hometown
And run to her, take her in my arms
Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard
But I drive on, and on, and on
But I drive on
Yes I drive on, and on, and on
Knowin what I need to do
Girl, I'm comin home to you
Knowin what I need to do
Girl I'm comin home to you
I'm comin home to you
Knowin what I need to do....

All I need to know
Kenny Chesney
With a little luck this ol' truck will get me home today
With a little more I'll still have this job tomorrow
Weather man says a wet weekend he just might be right
But rain or shine you'll be mine tonight
That's all I need to know
In a world where most things come and go
I'll always have you to hold
And that's all I need to know
Heaven knows I ain't even close to bein' God's gift to women
But in your arms I feel like I am
I don't know it all, I sure can't solve
The problems of the human race
But I know how to bring a smile to your face
That's all I need to know
In a world where most things come and go
I'll always have you to hold
And that's all I need to know
Darlin', say it one more time
You will forever be mine
That's all I need to know
In a world where most things come and go
I'll always have you to hold
And that's all I need to know
I'll always have you to hold
That's all I need to know

You Had Me From Hello
Kenny Chesney
One word, that's all was said,
Something in your voice caused me to turn my head.
Your smile just captured me, you were in my future as far as I could see.
And I dont know how it happened, but it happens still.
You ask me if I love you, if I always will.........
Well, you had me from "Hello"
I felt love start to grow the moment that I looked into your eyes
You won me, it was over from the start.
You completely stole my heart, and now you won't let go.
I never even had a chance you know...
You had me from "Hello"
Inside I built a wall so high around my heart, I thought I'd never fall.
One touch, you brought it down,
Bricks of my defenses scattered on the ground.
And I swore to me that I wasn't going to love again...
The last time was the last time I'd let someone in
Well, you had me from "Hello"
I felt love start to grow the moment that I looked into your eyes
You won me, it was over from the start.
You completely stole my heart, and now you wont let go.
I never even had a chance you know...
You had me from "Hello"
Thats all you said
Something in your voice caused me to turn my head
You had me from "Hello"
You had me from "Hello"
Girl, I've loved you from "Hello"

Baby's gotten good at goodbye
George Strait
What a rotten day
This turned out to be
I still can't believe
She'd leave so easily
She just packed all her things
Threw them into a pile
Then she loaded her car
And said, "After awhile"
She'd done this before
But this time she didn't cry
Chorus:
That's why I'm sitting on the front steps
Staring down the road
Wondering if she'll come back
This time I don't know
And after she packed
When she looked back
There were no tears in her eyes
And that's got me worried
Thinking maybe my baby's
Gotten good at goodbye
All the times before
She'd break down and cry
She'd make her threats
But her heart wasn't set on goodbye
She just wanted me to hear
What she had to say
Now I'm lost for words
Since she went away
She may not return
For this time she didn't cry
That's why I'm sitting on the front steps
Staring down the road
Wondering if she'll come back
This time I don't know
And after she packed
When she looked back
There were no tears in her eyes
And that's got me worried
Thinking maybe my baby's
Gotten good at goodbye
That's why I'm sitting on the front steps
Staring down the road
Wondering if she'll come back
This time I don't know
And after she packed
When she looked back
There were no tears in her eyes
And that's got me worried
Thinking maybe my baby's
Gotten good at goodbye

Little Goodbyes
Shedaisy
I'm gonna tell you something you don't wanna hear
You never listen when I talk
Maybe you'll listen when I walk
So I made my mind up and made a sandwich
And I didn't shed a tear
I gave you one last minute of my time
In this mess I left behind
When you come home tonight
And turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find
My little good-byes
Empty hangers by the closet door
Lipstick tube on the bathroom floor
My little good-byes
Unpaid bills by the kitchen phone
I took the Beatles left Billy Joel
Little good-byes, little good-byes
I'm sure you're sure I'll be back in just an hour or two
You'll tape a Hallmark to my door
They always said it better than you
And if you're wondering when you're gonna hear from me
Well, take a real good look around boy
And it won't be hard to see
When you come home tonight
And turn on the light
Don't you be surprised to find
My little good-byes
Took your favorite Dodgers hat
Left the litter but I took the cat
My little good-byes
Loaded up the TV in the back of my car
Have fun watching the VCR
Little good-byes, Oh baby, little good-byes
So, cry to your mamma
And your sympathetic friends and tell 'em
And tell them how the story ends
My little good-byes
Took the hourglass, left the sand
Now you've got time on your hands
My little good-byes
Took the statue from Japan
Funny little Buddha man
My little good-byes
Change my voice on the machine
Or there'll be little good-byes with every ring
My little good-byes
Left the pictures took the frame
I've got the umbrella, here comes the rain
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Little good-byes
Hey, hey - yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey, hey - yeah, yeah, yeah
Little good-byes

Tori Amos, Little Earthquakes
Yellow bird flying gets shot in the wing
Good year for hunters and Christmas parties
and I hate
and I hate
and I hate
and I hate elevator music
The way we fight
The way I'm left here silent
Oh these little earthquakes
Here we go again
These little earthquakes
Doesn't take much to rip us into pieces
We danced in graveyards with vampires till dawn
We laughed in the faces of king never afraid to burn
and I hate
and I hate
and I hate
and I hate disintegration
Watching us wither
White winged roses that safely changed their COLOR
Oh these little earthquakes
Here we go again
These little earthquakes
Doesn't take much to rip us into pieces
I can't reach you
I can't reach you
I can't reach you
I can't reach you
can't reach you
Give me life
Give me pain
Give me myself again
Give me life
Give me pain
Give me myself again
Give me life
Give me pain
Give me myself again
Give me life
Give me pain
Give me myself again
Give me life
Give me pain
Give me myself again
Give me life
Give me pain
Give me myself again
Give me life
Give me pain
Give me myself again
Give me life
Give me pain
Give me myself again
Oh these little earthquakes
Here we go again

Doesn't take much to rip us into pieces
Doesn't take much to rip us into pieces

A Little Luck of Our Own
Keith Urban
The cards are stacking up against us
These days our luck is running low
It's hard to explain but a little bit of rain
Seems to follow us wherever we go
Black cat sittin' on a ladder
Broken mirror on the wall
We're not a bit superstitious
No need to worry at all
'Cause when we can't roll a seven
And our last lucky penny is gone
This world can be tough
But I know when our love is this strong
We can make a little luck of our own, luck of our own
The storm is only temporary
But you and I are here to stay
Baby can't you see true love is all we need
So just throw that rabbit's foot away
'Cause when we can't roll a seven
And our last lucky penny is gone
This world can be tough
But I know when our love is this strong
We can make a little luck of our own
Oh we can make it baby
'Cause when we can't roll a seven
And our last lucky penny is gone
This world can be tough
But I know our love is this strong
We can make a little luck of our own
We can make a little luck of our own
Yeah, yeah
Oooh we can make it baby
Make a little luck of our own.

It's amazing how you
Can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word
You can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing
The smile on your face
Let's me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes
Saying you'll never leave me
A touch of your hand
Says you'll catch me if ever I fall
Yeah, you say it best
When you say nothing at all
All day long I can hear
People talking out loud
But when you hold me near
You drown out the crowd
Old Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine
The smile on your face
Lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in you eyes
Saying you'll never leave me
A touch of your hand
Says you'll catch me
If ever I fall
Yeah, you say it best

I wanna talk about Me!!!
We talk about your work how your boss is a jerk
We talk about your church and your head when it hurts
We talk about the troubles you've been having with your brother
About your daddy and your mother and your crazy ex-lover
We talk about your friends and the places that you've been
We talk about your skin and the dimples on your chin
The polish on your toes and the run in your hose
And God knows we're gonna talk about your clothes
You know talking about you makes me smile
But every once in awhile
I wanna talk about me
Wanna talk about I
Wanna talk about number one
Oh my me mine
What I think, what I like, what I know, what I want, what I see
I like talking about you you you you, usually, but occasionally
I wanna talk about me
I wanna talk about me
We talk about your dreams and we talk about your schemes
your high school team and your moisturizer creme
We talk about your nanna up in Muncie, Indiana
We talk about your grandma down in Alabama
We talk about your guys of every shape and size
The ones that you despise and the ones you idolize
We talk about your heart, about your brains and your smarts
And your medical charts and when you start
You know talking about you makes me grin
But every now and then
I wanna talk about me
Wanna talk about I
Wanna talk about number one
Oh my me mine

A Little Less Talk And A Lot More Action
Toby Keith
I was getting kinda tired of her endless chatter
Nothing I could say ever seemed to matter
So I took a little drive just to clear my head
I saw a flashing neon up ahead
It looked like a place to find some satisfaction
With a little less talk and a lot more action
I paid the man at the door and pushed my way to the bar
Shouted for a drink over a screaming guitar
A drunk on a stool tried to mess with my head
But I didn't even listen to a word he said
I knew somewhere amid all this distraction
Was a little less talk and a lot more action
A little less talk if you please
A lot more loving is what I need
Let's get on down to the main attraction
With a little less talk and a lot more action
Well she was fighting them off at a corner table
She had a longneck bottle she was peeling the label
The look on her face it was perfectly clear
She said somebody please get me out of here
The look she shot me through the glass refraction
Said a little less talk and a lot more action
A little less talk if you please
A lot more loving is what I need
Let's get on down to the main attraction
With a little less talk and a lot more action
A little less talk
A lot more loving
Let's get on down to the main attraction
With a little less talk and a lot more action
Get on down to the main attraction

Don't talk to me that way
Lately I've been seeing a certain glow upon your face
But I know I'm not the reason
You wear that different smile these days
Though you haven't said you're leaving
Darlin I've already heard
Don't you know your silence is talking louder than your words
(Chorus)
Don't talk to me that way
Cause it's my heart thats being broken
Goodbye still hurts the same even if it goes unspoken
You're tearing me apart with everything that you don't say
There's so much I haven't heard and thas less than I deserve
Don't talk to me that way
___
Why can't you lay it on the line
And say you found somebody new
I can't take the silence as well as I can take the truth
I don't want you here beside me
If that's not where you want to be
But you ain't said a single word and that's not enough for me
Don't talk to me that way
Cause it's my heart thats being broken
Goodbye still hurts the same even if it goes unspoken
You're tearing me apart with everything that you don't say
There's so much I haven't heard and thas less than I deserve
Don't talk to me that way
There's so much I haven't heard, that's less than I deserve

I Wanna Feel That Way Again

At the time, it seemed like the right thing
Breakin’ up and goin’ separate ways
But now I find, I can’t keep from wishin’
I was back with you in yesterday
Laughin’ and lovin’ wild and free
No one else but you and me
I wanna feel that way again
I wanna touch you like I did back then
I wanna hold you in my arms, let a candle burn till dawn
Feel your breath upon my skin
It was the best I’ve ever been
I can’t believe we let it end
I wanna feel that way again
Holdin’ hands, walkin’ down a dirt road
In the dark and knowin’ everything was right
We would dance, and talk about tomorrow
Our lips would touch and set the night on fire
Back then there was nothin’ we couldn’t do
Believin’ that dreams come true
I wanna feel that way again
I wanna touch you like I did back then
I wanna hold you in my arms, let a candle burn till dawn
Feel your breath upon my skin

I got a funny feeling
George Strait
Well my baby's wearin' a permanent smile
A satisfied look I ain't seen for awhile
I ain't had no rings, fulfilled any dreams
But somethin's come over my baby it seems
I've got a funny feeling somebody's stealin' my honey
Lord I love that child, love to see her smile
But these circumstances ain't funny
Where lies a danger, is he a stranger or a pal
I've got a funny feeling somebody's stealing my gal
If I came home early, Lord what would I find?
Maybe I'd rather just walk around blind
I know baby loves me, Lord I understand
I love how emotions can get out of hand
I've got a funny feeling somebody's stealin' my honey
Lord I love that child, love to see her smile
But these circumstances ain't funny
Where lies a danger, is he a stranger or a pal
I've got a funny feeling somebody's stealing my gal
Wherever he is, well I'm callin' his bluff
I'm gonna start wearin' that good smellin' stuff
And I'll be the lover that I used to be
Whatever she's missin', she'll get it from me
I've got a funny feeling somebody's stealin' my honey
Lord I love that child, love to see her smile
But these circumstances ain't funny
Where lies a danger, is he a stranger or a pal
I've got a funny feeling somebody's stealing my gal
I've got a funny feeling somebody's stealin' my gal
