just remember you were warned

No More Looking Over My Shoulder
Travis Tritt
Written by Michael Peterson & Craig Wiseman
As a child I was told that I was destined to be nothing
Growing wild as I got older I fulfilled what had been said
Hiding ignorance and fear I prayed nobody saw me bluffing
But I was laying the foundation for a future I would dread
Yeah
Seems like every choice I made would somehow leave me
second-guessing
'Bout the green grass I was passing racing toward the other
side
I thank God for the blessing
That I finally learned this lesson:
One Step in the right direction's worth a wasted mile behind
Chorus:
Singin'
No more lookin' over my shoulder
No more hangin' on to the past
No more filling up my tomorrows
With yesterday's sorrows
No more lookin' over my shoulder
I could chill a room with reasons why I would not give
forgiveness
To the people who had selfishly left me a wounded soul
I kept dragging 'round those memories
Like a ball and chain behind me
Wonderin' why my troubles followed me wherever I would go
Oh, but one night, sick and tired of being sick and tired
I realized forgiveness was the only open road
I swear I heard those shackles snap
The moment that I took that path
I never have one time looked back since the morning I arose
Chorus
I'm singin'
No more lookin' over my shoulder
No more hangin' on to the past
No more filling up my tomorrows
With yesterday's sorrows
No more, no more, no...
No more lookin' over my shoulder
No more hangin' on to the past
No more filling up my tomorrows
With yesterday's sorrows
No more lookin' over my shoulder
<div align="center">Put Your Head On My Shoulders
Paul Anka
Put Your Head on My Shoulder,
Hold me in your arms, Ba---By
Squeeze me oh so tight , Ba--by
Show me that you love me too.
Put your lips close to mine, dear,
Won't you kiss me once, Ba--By?
Just a kiss goodnight, Ba--By
Maybe you and I will fall in love.
People say love's a game
A game you just can't win.
If there's a way, I'll find it someday,
And then this fool will rush in,
Put your head on my shoulder,
Hold me in your arms, Ba--by
Squeeze me oh so tight, Show me.
Put your head on my shoulder.

The world was on fire
No one could save me but you.
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No, I don't want to fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
No, I don't want to fall in love

What a wicked game you play
To make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
To let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
You never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do
To make me dream of you
And I don't wanna fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
And I don't want to fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
{World} was on fire
No one could save me but you

No I don't wanna fall in love

Nobody loves no one
Fine, I'll play with myself ...

<div align="center">I'll Follow the Sun
The Beatles
One day you'll look to see I've gone.
For tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the sun.
Some day you'll know I was the one.
But tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the sun.
And now the time has come
And so my love I must go.
And though I lose a friend,
In the end you'll know, oooh.
One day you'll find that I have gone.
For tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the sun.
Yes, tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the sun.
And now the time has come

"Have You Ever Seen The Rain"
Creedance Clearwater Revival
Someone told me long ago, there's a calm before the storm.
I know, and it's been comin' for some time.
When it's over, so they say, it'll rain a sunny day.
I know, shinin' down like water.
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
comin' down on a sunny day?
Yesterday, and days before, sun is cold and rain is hard.
I know, been that way for all my time.
'Til forever on it goes through the circle fast and slow,
I know, and it can't stop, I wonder.
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
comin' down on a sunny day?

<center>Flood
jars of clay
Rain, rain on my face
It hasn't stopped raining for days
My world is a flood
Slowly I become one with the mud
[Chorus:]
But if I can't swim after forty days
and my mind is crushed by the thrashing waves
Lift me up so high that I cannot fall
Lift me up
Lift me up - when I'm falling
Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying
Lift me up - I need you to hold me
Lift me up - Keep me from drowning again
Downpour on my soul
Splashing in the ocean, I'm losing control
Dark sky all around
I can't feel my feet touching the ground
[Chorus]
Calm the storms that drench my eyes
Dry the streams still flowing
Cast down all the waves of sin
And guilt that overthrow me
[Chorus]
Lift me up - when I'm falling
Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying
Lift me up - I need you to hold me
Lift me up - Keep me from drowning again

Well there's floodin' down in Texas
All of the telephone lines are down
Well there's floodin' down in Texas
All of the telephone lines are down
And I've been tryin' to call my baby
Lord and I can't get a single sound
Well dark clouds are rollin' in
Man I'm standin' out in the rain
Well dark clouds are rollin' in
Man I'm standin' out in the rain
Yeah flood water keep a rollin'
Man it's about to drive poor me insane
Well I'm leavin' you baby
Lord and I'm goin' back home to stay
Well I'm leavin' you baby
Lord and I'm goin' back home to stay
Well back home are no floods or tornados
Baby and the sun shines every day</center>

clutch!
So you say you want to go to Heaven,
Well I got the plans.
It walks like the Sasquatch
And it breeds like Kubla Khan.
In original dialect,
It's really quite cryptical.
There are many copies around,
But this my man is the original.
It's given me powers,
But kept me low.
Many have scorned this,
Modern day Pharisees fat with espressos.
Be leary of Timothy,
Clear light and all that.
If you want light go stare at the sun.
hell, that boy don't know crap.
If you want to know Paradise,
And you want to know hell,
Want to drink that cool clear liquor,
Better dig a little deeper in the well.
If you want to know Paradise,
And you want to know hell,
Want to drink that cool clear liquor,
Better dig a little deeper in the well.
You want a mantra?
You want to know?
You want that mantra?
Well here you go.
One for the money,
Two for the show,
And a knickknackpaddywack
Give the Lord a handclap.

Ooeeooahahtwingtwangwallawallabingbang
Still want that mantra?
Still want to know?
Still want that mantra?
Well here you go.

So put this in your pipe
And smoke it.

Shelter
"Mantra"
Earth can be a lonely place
Blank stares on the people's face
I contemplate their pointless chase
That traps me and my friends
Is this the place where I belong?
Where did we go wrong?
Will it last real long?
Are you too singing this song?
Sometimes I feel it
Sometimes I feel all so alone
And yes yes I must confess
I feel so far from home
Mantra take me home I trust you
Mantra take me home
Take me to the place where I belong
Life's a puzzle the thoughtful solve
But most choose not to get involved
Because of this we don't envolve
Just look around my friend
And life's meaning can be hard to grasp
All that's certain is it won't last
We're all spirits looking for transcendence
Oh mantra grant me tha independence

Strange are the things we
Place our beliefs in,
My apprehensions
Tear down the walls of the temple
But all the signs that you’ve have raised
Mark the extent of your faith
Strange are the things we
Choose to believe in
My apprehensions
Tear down the walls of the temple
I’ll never fit in
No faith to believe
My resignation
Tears down the walls of the temple
Your cash betrays your true worth
Obtain your garden on earth
But fame is the wealth that
You believe in
<solo>
since you can’t be wrong
Shield your eyes from the sun
It’s light will expose
The poverty of your soul
Yeah
Your wealth cannot save
This sacrament that we’ll face
Your opulence has no worth
You sold your soul on this earth
Yeah
At the break from your hold,
My life cannot be bought & sold
This truth you will never get
And now your so far in debt
Yeah (repeat 3 times)</span></center>

Trouble ahead, trouble behind,
And you know that notion just crossed my mind.
This old engine makes it on time,
Leaves Central Station 'bout a quarter to nine,
Hits River Junction at seventeen to,
At a quarter to ten you know it's travlin' again.

On the wrong track and headed for you.

Got two good eyes but you still don't see.

"Killer Cars"
Too hard on the brakes again
What if these brakes just give in?
What if they don't get out of the way?
What if there's someone overtaking?
I'm going out for a little drive
And it could be the last time you see me alive
There could be an idiot on the road
The only kick in life is pumping his steel
Wrap me up in the back of the trunk
Packed with foam and blind drunk
They won't ever take me alive
'Cause they all drive...
Don't die on the motorway
The moon would freeze, the plants would die
I couldn't cope if you crashed today
All the things I forgot to say
I'm going out for a little drive
And it could be the last time you see me alive
What if the car loses control?
What if there's someone overtaking?
Wrap me up in the back of the trunk
Packed with foam and blind drunk
They won't ever take me alive
'Cause they all drive killer cars
Wrap me up in the back of the trunk
Packed with foam and blind drunk
No they won't ever take me alive
'Cause they all drive killer cars
They all drive killer cars
They all drive killer cars

Dave Matthews
I hear more than I like to...
So I boil my head in a sense of humor...
I laugh at what I cannot change...
I throw it all on the pyre again...go then and do this
I'd do it for you...
When all that I want is so badly to be...
By myself again...
It's going to drive me right out of my brain
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out
I'll come back again
Drive in drive out I'm leaving
Drive in drive out
I don't care if we all turn to waste...
So when I beg...you avoid me...because I smell of dirt... hungry,
Hungry boy...you won't leave me all alone...the boy won't go
Sooner or later we're done
Sooner or later I'm gone
Because, because
Sooner or later we're gone
Sooner away
Ooh, my head is pounding now...god has all but left me behind...
Not a sense of worry...I'm going to drive in and drive out again
Drive in drive out I'm leavin
Drive in drive out I'll come
Drive in drive out I'm leavin
Drive in drive out
I'm over this arrangement...
Around here...emptiness
Sounded so good...I want to
Drive you right into my world
Drive in drive out I'm leavin
Drive in drive out I'll come
Drive in drive out I'm leavin
Drive in drive out

What I Need To Do
(Bill Luther/Tom Damphier)
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....

Deep Purple (Bolin/Coverdale/Paice)
My mama showed me how to rock in the cradle
But I learned how to roll along
My papa said "son, gotta git some fun,
Cos when your old it ain't too good on your own"
Been so long since you heard my song
Gonna pick up my guitar and play
Felt so bad when I had to leave you
But I knew that I'd be back some day
So I'm comin' home
To give you more than you bargained for
Comin' home
No mistake I'm gonna shiver 'n' shake
Comin' home
Gonna rock 'n' roll an' give you my soul
Comin' home
I got over the pain I'm comin' home again
Groovin' to American Bandstand
B.B. onstage with 'Lucille'
The thrill is gone but it won't be for long
Cos you know I like to play how you feel
Now that we're back together
Gonna shiver 'n' shake all night
I just gotta say the music I play
Will sure enough make you feel alright
Tho I learned how to rock in the cradle
An' rollin' came so easy to me
All the years I travelled the world
Made it so clear to see
It's been so long since you heard my song
Gonna pick up my guitar 'n' play
Felt so bad when I had to leave you
But I knew that I'd be back some day
Comin' home
To give you more than you bargained for
Comin' home
No mistake I'm gonna shiver and shake
Comin' home
Gonna rock 'n' roll and give you my soul
