I Know What I Want For Christmas
(Dana Hunt/Charlie Black)
This the season for generosity
A time to give and to receive
My Christmas list consists of just one sweet dream.
I know what I want for Christmas this year
I hope my note got to Santa on time
Im a little bit nervous,
Its kind of a big thing Im asking for
I dont know if I deserve it but, boy, if I get it
Ill never ask for anything more
It shines, its new
Its the one wish that I wish would come true
This year for Christmas I just wanna be with you.
We can build a little fire
We can sit and talk for hours
Well just have fun
You can tell me what you did
Christmas morning as a kid
And well talk about all our Christmases to come.

Love Without End Amen
Love without end amen
I got sent home from school one day with a shiner on my eye
Fightin was against the rules and it didnt matter why
When dad got home I told that story just like Id rehearsed
Then stood there on those tremblin knees and waitin for the worst
And he said...
Chorus:
Let me tell you a secret about a fathers love
A secret that my daddy said was just between us
He said daddies dont just love their children every now and then
Its a love without end, amen
Its a love without end, amen
When I became a father in the spring of 81
There was no doubt that stubborn boy was just like my fathers son
And when I thought my patience had been tested to the end
I took my daddys secret and passed it on to him
I said...
Repeat chorus
Last night I dreamed Id died and stood outside those pearly gates
When suddenly I realized there must be some mistake

Friday Night Fever
I love the sound of a jukebox playing,
So I sit here while shes staying home
Watching dallas on t.v.
I love the taste of whiskey straight,
But the strongest thing she ever takes
Is a sip from a small glass of chablis.
Though birds of a different feather,
Our love keeps us together,
And she knows whats wrong with me tonight,
Ive got that friday night fever;
Sometimes a man just needs a breather.
She knows I love her and I need her.
And Im no cheater,
Ive just got that friday night fever.
She wouldnt change me if she could, so I wouldnt change her,
Shes too good.
Sometimes a man just needs a change of pace.
Ive heard all those come-on lines,
But I go home at closing time.
I know no one could ever take her place

Overnight Male
Let me be your male-man
And Ill always come though
Theres no denying
Come rain or shine
Ill deliver my love to you
I do things by the letter
You can put your stamp on me
Cause there aint nobody better
For a special delivery
Chorus:
Like the pony express
And the wild wild west
Ill ride hard all night long
And I can saddle up fast
Get ya there first class
Long before the dawn
You know your males gonna get to you
Come snow, rain, sleet, or hail
Cause Im a top flight, hold ya tight, get ya there by daylight
Do you right overnight male

Need I Say More
Youre the only one and only
My hearts beatin for
I love you, need I say more
Now and ever, well be together
Of that you can be sure
I love you, need I say more
I dont know just what it is
That youre needing to hear me say
The way that Im feeling
Is more than mere words can describe
And all this discussion could never
Do justice to something so heavenly-made
Id rather tell you
With touches how I feel inside
Let me hold you, let me show you
What true loves all about
In these arms of mine I know you will find
You wont do without anymore
Ill love you forever, need I say more
I dont know just what it is

Looking Out My Window Through The Pain
(John Schweers)
I watched from my window as she slipped from the house
Once again she's leaving, but Lord, she's not to blame
This morning a memory phoned her and he's a habit she can't break
So 'til she returns, I'll wait for her,
looking out my window through the pain
The devil drove the taxi that carried her away
And it hurts to know she's hung up on some guy from yesterday
Once again she's chasing memories and I'm losing everything
But I love her, so I'll wait for her,
looking out my window through the pain
I'll pick up the pieces when he lets her down again
With love and understanding, I'll give her reasons this time to stay
And I'll close my eyes pretending maybe someday she will change
And I won't be left lonely,
looking out my window through the pain
Yes, the devil drove the taxi that carried her away
And it hurts to know she's still hung up on some guy from yesterday
Once again she's chasing memories and I'm losing everything
But Lord I love her, so I'll wait for her,

I Don't Want To Talk It Over Anymore
I don't want to talk it over, anymore.
We said it all last night,
And time and time, again before.
You don't know what you put me through,
When you walk out the door.
Now, I don't want to talk it over, anymore.
We'll last about a month again this time.
I tried to do you right,
But you kept steppin' over the line.
Now your gone, it's ashame but it's the best,
Don't be concerned.
'Cause, I don't want to talk it over, anymore.
Each time we try to say I love you once again
And everytime we end up right back where we've been
I don't want to talk it over, anymore.
We said it all last night,
And time and time again before.
You don't know what you put me through,
When you walk out the door.
Now, I don't want to talk it over, anymore.

Eating saltine crackers, ten cents a pound.(ha)

Big balls in cowtown - well all go down.
Big balls in cowtown - well dance around.

Shake off them sad blues - big balls in town.

Go On
I'm so sorry, I keep interrupting, what were you gonna say?
You caught him cheatin', I don't blame you for walkin' away.
I know where you're comin' from, it sounds like where I've been
Oh, there I go interrupting your story once again
Go on, go on, you were sayin' how a fool can only fool you so long
It's true, it's so true when they do you like that
What else you can do but go on.
Our conversation won't change nothin', but it's sure nice to talk
With somebody who's been cut out of the same ol' cloth
You know how you said happiness can't be found lookin' back
If you don't mind, maybe we can talk a little more about that.
Go on, go on, you were sayin' this is better than sittin' at home
It's true, it's so true when they do you like that
What else can you do but go on...
Even when you see no reason to
Don't wait to live life 'cause it won't wait for you
Go on, please go on, you were sayin' what don't kill us only makes us strong
It's true, that's so true when they do you like that
What else can you do but go on.
Just go on.

Lonesome Rodeo Cowboy
I own this horse and saddle
And that old cadillac
This broken down horse trailer
And the clothes that are on my back
Well I know that it aint a hell of alot
But its all that I can show
My wife left me five years ago
In one of those rodeo towns
I cant say that I blame her much
She just wanted to settle down
Oh God how I miss that woman
It hurt so to see her go
If I was smart I woulda stuck by her
But Im hooked on this rodeo
Chorus:
And Im just a lonesome cowboy
Im a little bit over the hill
I shoulda quit this thing a long time ago
But I guess I never will
So I keep on movin from show to show
