The Night I Called The Old Man Out
The dining room fell silent
I cant believe what I just said
I just told my dad hes full of it
And I watched his face turn red
And I shouldve said, Im sorry
But I matched him shout for shout
I can still hear that screen door slammin
The night I called him out.
(chorus)
He said, son its gonna hurt me more than it hurts you
But somehow I couldnt help but have my doubts
cause Id seen my old brothers crawl back in the house
Each time they called the old man out.
Fist to fist and eye to eye
Standin toe to toe
He wouldve let me walk away
But I just would not let it go
Years of my frustration
Had let me to this night
Now hell pay for all the times that hes been right.

The Storm
More info about this song in the song database
She sits among the pieces of broken glass and photographs
Reluctantly releases the last of what was her past
It struck without a warning or did she just ignore the signs
In those dark clouds forming behind her silver lines
Chorus:
The door it slammed like thunder and the tears they fell like rain
And the warnings from her family whirl like a hurricane
Shes drowning in emotions and she cannot reach the shore
Shes alive but can she survive the storm
A broken jewel box dancer lies in pieces down the hall
Shes finding out the answers dont change nothing at all
Its time that she stopped searching for whos to blame or what went wrong
The only thing for certain is hes gone, shes got to move on
Repeat chorus
Someday days just roll on by without a gray cloud in the sky
She keeps telling herself, I will make it on my own
And her friends theyve all gone back to their lives
Thinking she will be all right
As she races through the night to make it home

Take The Keys To My Heart
Ive been out on this highway of heartache
Hopin that somewhere down the line
I could find someday who
Could rev me like you do
So grab onto my wheel
And Ill be fine
Take the keys to my heart
And drive me crazy
Ive been runnin on empty way too long
Honey you got the touch
That heats my motor up
Take the keys to my heart
And drive it home
I dont know where this road is gonna lead us
But what a beautiful night for a drive
Baby put your mind at ease
Drop the top and feel the breeze
Just follow all the signs to paradise
Take the keys to my heart
And drive me crazy

It Dont Matter To The Sun
It dont matter to the sun
If you go or if you stay
I know the sun is gonna rise
Shine down on another day
There will still be a tomorrow
Even if you choose to leave
cause it dont matter to the sun (oh baby)
It matters to me
It aint gonna stop the world
If you walk out that door
This old world will just keep on turning round (turning round)
Like it did the day before
cause see to them it makes no difference (ohh)
It just keeps on keepin time
cause it aint gonna stop the world (oh baby)
But itll be the end of mine
What can I say
What can I do
Im still in love
So without you...

Rollin
She was born to a mother trucker
Raised behind the wheel
So you can blame it on the highway
For the way she cant sit still
She says life is like a windshield
It aint no rear view mirror
The only way to get where youre goin
Is find that higher gear
And keep it
(chorus)
Rollin
Lifes gonna run you over if you dont get goin
She said I wanna fell the earth move under me
Movin with the motion of a melody
Oh I get the blues if the rhythm aint got no soul
You got to keep it
Rollin.
Well I knew that I was in trouble
When she told me that talk was cheap
Said if youre tired get on the sofa

I Dont Have To Wonder
Drove to the church
In my suit and tie
But I just couldnt bring myself
To go inside
So I sat alone
In my truck across the street
Watched that chauffeur smokin cigarettes
By that long white limousine
I could just imagine
What was goin on in there
Sunlight screamin through the stained glass
And those flowers in her hair
And in less time than it takes a tear to fall
Those bells rang loud as thunder
As they opened up the doors
Now I dont have to wonder anymore
Laughin and a cryin
Tossin that bouquet
And when you got in that limo
I drove off the other way

Two Pina Coladas
I was feelin the blues
I was watching the news
When this fella came on the tv
He said Im tellin you
That science has proven
That heartaches are healed by the sea
That got me goin
Without even knowin
I packed right up and drove down
Now Im on a roll
And I swear to my soul
Tonight Im gonna paint this town
So bring me two pina coladas
One for each hand
Lets set sail with captin morgan
And never leave dry land
Troubles I forgot em
I buried em in the sand
So bring me two pina coladas
She said good-bye to her good timin man

Unanswered Prayers
Just the other night a hometown football game
My wife and I ran into my old high school flame
And as I introduced them the past came back to me
And I couldnt help but think of the way things used to be.
She was the one that Id wanted for all times
And each night Id spend prayin that God would make her mine
And if hed only grant me this wish I wished back then
Id never ask for anything again.
(chorus)
Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when youre talkin to the man upstairs
That just because he doesnt answer doesnt mean he dont care
Some of gods greatest gifts are unanswered prayers.
She wasnt quite the angel that I remembered in my dreams
And I could tell that time had changed me
Inn her eyes too it seemed
We tried to talk about the old days
There wasnt much we could recall
I guess the lord knows what hes doin after all.
And as she walked away and I looked at my wife

Main Street
One light blinking off and on
Blood of life in this town is gone
Lost all its pieces but the pawn
Tomorrow stopped coming with the dawn
In my dreams, Ive seen
Things that only seem to happen on the silver screen
When its over theres no walking out
Cuz Ive been all they talk about
Cuz what aint goin down
On main street
I went too early with a friend of mine
Just to see what it was all about
Hit the freeway and it blew my mind,
I had to find a way of gettin out
She said, they say, hey you gotta live a little
In my mind, Id find lost aint living,
Even there in the middle of main street
Yeah....
Never did the things I though I would
Woulda left just didnt know I could
