If It's Gonna Rain

(Dean Dillon/Donny Kees/Scott Emerick)
If its gonna rain I hope it pours
Thunder and lightning
Like never before
'cause thats how I feel
Here in my heart
If its gonna rain
Let the stom start
If youre gonna leave go on and go
Dont even look back
When you hit the road
If thats how you feel
About you and me
Nows a good time
So go on and leave
Ive never been one for doing
Something half the way
Ive loved you with all my heart
But its all been in vain
Its gonna hurt

We Really Shouldnt Be Doing This

We really shouldnt be doing this
And we both know why
Just being close enough to think like this
Enough to make you need to lie
This kinda talk will lead us to somewhere
Were gettin way too close to going there
The farther off the better to resist
We really shouldnt be doin this
Only an isolated incident
But the acquaintance left me stunned
The first attraction was the hardest hit
I thought Id ever overcome
This kinda situation has to pass
This chance encounter has to be the last
To take it further we would be remiss
We really shouldnt be doin this
Wed each be hurting somebody else
If we dont say our good-byes real fast
Wont even think about a farewell kiss
We really shouldnt be doin this

Gone As A Girl Can Get

Well I havent seen her lately
And she never calls
She dont ask my friends about me
Gives no clues at all
That a fire might still be burnin, yeah
Id say shes about as gone as a girl can get
She dont even show up in my dreams at night
But my stubborn old memory keeps holdin on tight
Sure makes it hard to forget
Shes about as gone as a girl can get
Chorus:
Shes out of here
She disappeared without a trace
More or less unimpressed
By the tears on my face
Destination unknown
She just dropped out of sight
Last seen headin right on out of my life
Like a stranger I aint never met
Shes about as gone as a girl can get

Amarillo By Morning

Amarillo by morning, up from san antone.
Everything that Ive got is just what Ive got on.
When that sun is high in that texas sky
Ill be bucking it to county fair.
Amarillo by morning, amarillo Ill be there.
They took my saddle in houston, broke my leg in santa fe.
Lost my wife and a girlfriend somewhere along the way.
Well Ill be looking for eight when they pull that gate,
And Im hoping that judge aint blind.
Amarillo by morning, amarillos on my mind.
Amarillo by morning, up from san antone.
Everything that Ive got is just what Ive got on.
I aint got a dime, but what I got is mine.
I aint rich, but lord Im free.
Amarillo by morning, amarillos where Ill be.
Amarillo by morning, amarillos where Ill be.

One Of You

Last night I had a dream, dreamt I had it all I had it all
I had one truck, one car
Oneboat, one guitar
Bujt all these things wouldnt get me too far
If I didnt have one of you
I lowrk hard every day to bring home all my pay
I got one house, one yard
One dog who likes to bark
Wed be cold, living the dark if I didnt have one of you
One of you is all I want and all Ill ever need
One of you is all ita takes to make my life complete
Chorus:
This is what I have, you have it all
I got one heart, one love
One dream Im dreaming of
Woulnt have known what to give it all to
If I didnt have one of you
One of you is all I want and all Ill ever need
One of you is all it takes to make my life complete
(repeat chours)

Adalide

Chorus:
Adalida, pretty little cajun queen
Sweet dixie flower, the belle of the bayou
Youre every young mans dream
Adalida, Id walk through a hurricane
To stand beside you sweet adalida
Id swim the pontchartrain
Oh no, here you comin down the road
With your cotton dress a swishin, you gettin some attention
From all the boys in the thibodaux
Oh my your really feelin up their eyes
Smilin and a winkin, I know what theyre thinkin
But Im the only one who loves you so!
Repeat chorus
Oh no, the hottest little dish I know
I know you can tell it, you makin me so jealous
From my head down to my toes
Oh me you could make a redneck green
The way that youre a lookin, you got me cookin
And I aint talkin bout etoufee

Last In Love

Blues outside my door
I dont even know if its rainin
But Ive been here before
And I dont want to be here anymore
Every now and then
Voices on the wind
Call me back to the first time
Far away and clear
You can hear the teardrops
Fallin for the last in love
If I let you down
All I can say is Im sorry
Now its all over town
So I dont want to hear it from you
Please dont look away
Its hard enought to say
This could go on forever
When the night is clear
I can hear the teardrops
Fallin for the last in love

I'm All Behind You Now

(Dean Dillon/Glen Martin)
Leavin' me behind is all behind you now
It's plain to see that you're for good over me
You've gotta whole new life ahead of you
You did waht you lived to do
And I'm all behind you now
And I'll be behind you always
Should you every be a yesterday
Though it tears me up
To know deep down
I'm all behind you know
You're comin' back
My way will come my way again
I'll never be what I was with you and me
And I don't know who or where your goin' to
But you did what you lived to do
And I'm all behind you now
And I'll be behind you always
Should you every be a yesterday
Though it tears me up

Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow

Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since weve no place to go
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
It doesnt show signs of stopping
And Ive brought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
When we finally kiss goodnight
How Ill hate going out in the storm!
But if youll really hold me tight
All the way home Ill be warm
The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, were still goodbying
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!
--- Instrumental ---
The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, were still goodbying
But as long as you love me so
