Working Man's Wage
(wynn varble/leslie satcher)
I've seen mornings when a thousand bales of hay
Looked like a mountain to a boy my age
And i've seen my daddy in that hot southern sun
Move those mountains one by one
And i've seen that same man come home from the mill
Pull forty hours for a hundred-dollar bill
I've watched him struggle and i've watched him age
Raising a family on a working man's wage
I grew up on a working man's wage
Blood, sweat and tears on every dollar he made
For the little he earned there was so much he gave
And i hope i am worthy of a working man's wage
I pick this guitar six nights a week
Daddy can't believe they're paying me
It would be so easy to let it go to my head
But there's just one thing that i can't forget
I grew up on a working man's wage
Blood, sweat and tears on every dollar he made
For the little he earned there was so much he gave

Big Time
(paul nelson/larry boone/kenny beard)
Get ready baby, were going uptown
Its friday night, were gonna get down
I thought you might like this brand new baby-blue dress
I figured out about a quarter til ten
Well be partied out and headin in
You and me alone darlin doing what we do best
Big time, were gonna have one
Big time, were gonna grab some
Lovin huggin cuddlin upin
Rendezvous
cuz Im in love with you
Big time
A little music, a sip of champagne
By candlelight, just doin our thing
Let the crowd wonder what in the world happened to us
Well they can boogie woogie all night long
Let em dance til the cows come home
For what we want this old honky tonk aint enough
Big time, were gonna have one

Dont Lie
(frank rogers/chet biggers)
That old photograph of us sure looks out of place
Laying on your bag out in the hall.
Youre takin it to remind you of our better days...
The ones you say youll miss when youre gone.
Dont lie...dont try to fool me...
Cause girl I know whats goin on.
Dont lie...you owe it to me...
Believe me leave well enough alone.
So just go ahead and say goodbye...
But dont lie.
Well Ive seen all his letters in the closet
Ive caught a trace of his cologne on you at night.
So dont stand there and act so broken hearted...
Tell me how its killin you inside.
Dont lie...dont try to fool me...
Cause girl I know whats goin on.
Dont lie...you owe it to me...
Believe me leave well enough alone.
So just go ahead and say goodbye...

No Thinkin' Thing
(tim nichols/mark d. sanders)
I been thinkin' 'bout our love situation
All this attraction in the present tense
I've reached the only logical conclusion
Love ain't supposed to make sense
This ain't no thinkin' thing, right brain, left brain
It goes a little deeper than that
It's a chemical, physical, emotional devotion
Passion that we can't hold back
There's nothin' that we need to analyze
There ain't no rhyme or reason why
'cause this ain't, this ain't no thinkin' thing
Forget mathematical equations
Self help psychology
Gray matter don't matter much darlin'
When it's gettin' down to you and me
This ain't no thinkin' thing, right brain, left brain
It goes a little deeper than that
It's a chemical, physical, emotional devotion
Passion that we can't hold back

I'd Sure Hate To Break Down Here
Mile marker 2003
The gas gauge leaning on the edge of 'E'
And i'll be danged if the rain aint pourin' down
Somethings smokin' underneath the hood
Theres a bangin' and a clangin' and it cant be good
And it's another 50 miles to the nearest town
Everything I own's in the back in a Hefty bag
Imm out of cigarettes and Im down to my last drag
Chorus:
I'd sure hate to break down here
Nothin' up ahead or in the rearview mirror
Out in the middle of nowhere knowin'
So God help me keep me movin' somewhere
Dont let me start wishin' I was with her now
Ive made it this far without cyin' a single tear
And i'd sure hate to break down here
A hundred fifty thousand miles ago
Before the bad blood and busted radio
You said I was all you'd ever need
But love is blind and little did i know

Once Upon A Fool Ago
It's the hour of ghosts I'm the sole surivior
You keep pushing me
To pull an all-nighter
Watching on these walls
Memory silhouettes
All the tender times
All the old regrets
And I wish I could take back our last goodbye
Knowing what I know now about foolish pride
I'd hold you in my loving arms
And say I love you so
And I wouldn't start this story
Once upon a fool ago
It's the same routine
Ever since you've gone
You creep into my dreams
Won't leave me alone
So I haunt these halls
And I rattle my chains
And I moan about

Love Me Like There's No Tomorrow
Hold me like there's no next time
Like it's the last time you'll have the chance to
Show me how much you want me
Like I'm the only thing that matters
No one knows when the world's gonna end
So let's make love like we never will again
'Cause if the sun never rises, I wanna go down in flames
I want the last thing I hear to be you whisperin' my name
If every moment together is time that we borrowed
Then hold me tight and love me like there's no tomorrow
I hope we live forever
And that day will never come, but darlin'
I know if it ever happens
I couldn't imagine not being in your arms
There's so much we take for granted in life
So love me baby like we're running out of time
'Cause if the sun never rises, I wanna go down in flames
I want the last thing I hear to be you whisperin' my name
If every moment together is time that we borrowed
'Cause if the sun never rises, I wanna go down in flames
