1.Amy's Back In Austin
(brady seals/stephen allen davis)
(track 3 - time 4:36)
We left texas on a windy night
In a beat-up chevy van
We loaded it up with our innocent dreams
And all the love we had
We didn't know then how hard it was
Livin' on our own
I'd find her cryin' late at night
Talkin' to the folks back home
I wonder what went wrong
And where is she now i'd love to know
I bet amy's back in austin
Workin' at the lazona rosa cafe
I remember the night we lost it
And the day she went away
Was it the angry words or did she miss her momma
I don't know but it don't feel right
I bet amy's back in austin
And i'm missin' her tonight
Workin' ten hours in a west coast sun
Can make the days so long
And watchin' the moon crashin' into the ocean
Alone sure gets old
I remember how sweet it was
Where is she now i need to know
I bet amy's back in austin
Workin' at the lazona rosa cafe
I remember the night we lost it
And the day she went away
Was it the angry words or did she miss her momma
I don't know but it don't feel right
I bet amy's back in austin
And i'm missin' her tonight
Could this desert wind
Carry me back again
With my heart in my hand
Baby, baby i'm missin' you
Was it the angry words or did she miss her momma
I don't know but it don't feel right
I bet amy's back in austin
And i'm missin' her missin' her tonight
Oh i bet amy's back in austin
I bet amy's back in austin
I bet amy's back in austin
I bet amy's back in austin
I bet amy's back in austin
I bet amy's back in austin
2.Country Crazy
(porter howell/chuck jones)
(track 12 - time 3:45)
She cut her teeth on the rollin' stones
It's only rock 'n roll was her favorite song
But these days she's had a little change of heart
Now she's into fiddle and slide guitar
She used to be a rock 'n roll baby
But now she's country crazy
It happened to her overnight
She woke up and saw the neon light
No one could have seen it comin'
She turned into a honky-tonk woman
She used to be a rock 'n roll baby
But now she's country crazy
All her old records are covered in dust
She's got her favorite country station on from dawn 'till dusk
Now head-banging slam-dancing ain't her thing
She says it ain't got nothin' if it ain't got twang
She used to be a rock 'n roll baby
But now she's country crazy
It happened to her overnight
She woke up and saw the neon light
No one could have seen it comin'
She turned into a honky-tonk woman
She used to be a rock 'n roll baby
But now she's country crazy
She used to be a rock 'n roll baby
But now she's country crazy
It happened to her overnight
She woke up and saw the neon light
No one could have seen it comin'
She turned into a honky-tonk woman
She used to be a rock 'n roll baby
But now she's country crazy
She used to be a rock 'n roll baby
But now she's country crazy
3.First Time For Everything
(porter howell/dwayne o'brien)
(track 2 - time 4:01)
I don't stay out all night
I don't close down the bars
And i don't make a fool of myself
Well, i don't drink too much
And i don't get too loud
And i don't ever raise too much hell
But there's a first time for everything
Since you said goodbye
There's not much of anything
That i haven't tried
To somehow get over you
There's no tellin' what i might do
'cause if i've learned anything
There's a first time for everything
I don't call up old flames
'cause i don't have a blackbook
I don't spend all my time in the past
I don't wake up with strangers
'cause i don't sleep around
No i don't believe in love that won't last
But there's a first time for everything
Since you said goodbye
There's not much of anything
That i haven't tried
To somehow get over you
There's no tellin' what i might do
'cause if i've learned anything
There's a first time for everything
Yeah yeah
When i somehow get over you
There's no tellin' what i might do
'cause if i've learned anything
There's a first time for everything
Yeah yeah
'cause if i've learned anything
There's a first time for everything
Yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
4.God Blessed Texas
I've seen a lot of places
I've been around the world
I've been seen pretty faces
Been with some beautiful girls
After all i've witnessed
One thing still amazes me
Just like a miracle, you have to see to believe
Chorus:
(cause) god blessed texas
With his own hand
Brought down angels from the promised land
Gave 'em a place where they could dnace
If you wanna see heaven, brother, here's you chance
I've been sent to spread the message
God blessed texas.
First, he let the sun shine
Then he made the waters deep
Then he gave us moonlight
For all the world to see
Well everybody knows that the lord works in mysterious ways
He took a rest, then on the very next day
Chorus (twice)
Well i've been sent to spread the message
God blessed texas
Well i've been sent to spread the message
God blessed texas.
5.I'd Rather Miss You
(porter howell/dwayne o'brien)
(track 8 - time 3:58)
I could forget you
I could make new plans
Find someone to help me
Spend this time on my hands
I could pick up the pieces
Even fall in love again
But until i do
I'd rather miss you
And live with the memories
The nights when you held me
Will carry me through
And if i have to choose
Between living without you
And learning to love someone new
Then i'd rather miss you
From the first time i saw you
'til the day we said goodbye
You were the best thing
Ever walked into my life
So i'll just keep waiting
Hoping you'll come back again
But until you do
I'd rather miss you
And live with the memories
The nights when you held me
Will carry me through
And if i have to choose
Between living without you
And learning to love someone new
Then i'd rather miss you
And if i have to choose
Between living without you
And learning to love someone new
Then i'd rather miss you
Then i'd rather miss you
Then i'd rather miss you
6.Kick A Little
(porter howell/dwayne o'brien/brady seals)
(track 1 - time 3:42)
My daddy always a gentle man
Never the kind to ever force his hand
He would always be the last one to raise his voice
If anybody ever put us down
Well you can bet that he would stand his ground
Then he would tell me son sometimes you got no choice
You've got to kick at little and cause a stir
Sometimes you got to make some noise to be heard
If anybody ever tries to hold you back
Yeah you got to kick a little and be tough
You got to let 'em know you've had enough
Remember that unless you want to finish last
You've got to kick a little
Some people judge you by the way you look
They see you once and say you ain't no good
Feels like they're never goona take you for who you are
That's when you have to stand up and be strong
And go the extra mile to prove 'em all wrong
Just remember when they push you way too far
You've got to kick at little and cause a stir
Sometimes you got to make some noise to be heard
If anybody ever tries to hold you back
Yeah you got to kick a little and be tough
You got to let 'em know you've had enough
Remember that unless you want to finish last
You've got to kick a little
You've got to kick at little and cause a stir
Sometimes you got to make some noise to be heard
If anybody ever tries to hold you back
Yeah you got to kick a little and be tough
You got to let 'em know you've had enough
Remember that unless you want to finish last
You've got to kick a little
7.Life Goes On
(del gray/thom mchugh/keith follese)
(track 9 - time 2:38)
Sun comes up sun goes down
This ol' world keeps spinnin' around
Not much has changed since you been gone
I miss you honey but life goes on
It's nice to see
You still think about me
But don't worry about my heart
Thanks for the call
Yeah i took a fall
But i didn't fall apart
Sun comes up sun goes down
This ol' world keeps spinnin' around
Not much has changed since you been gone
I miss you honey but life goes on
You say you can tell
That i'm doin' well
By the sound of my voice
What'd you expect
Baby when you left
You left me no choice
Sun comes up sun goes down
This ol' world keeps spinnin' around
Not much has changed since you been gone
I miss you honey but life goes on
Thanks to you
Sayin' we're through
I've gotten good at gettin' by
I don't know when
But i'll love again
It's just a matter of time
Sun comes up sun goes down
This ol' world keeps spinnin' around
Not much has changed since you been gone
I miss you honey but life goes on
I miss you honey but life goes on
I miss you honey but life goes on
8.My Love
Get on your mark, get set
Ready or not here i come
You've been looking for love
Well honey, i can give you some
When your world is standing still
I can turn it around
Put your head up in the clouds
And pick your feet off the ground
Chorus:
My love
Are you ready for my love, my love
My love, my love is ready for you.
If you're looking for a heart that's always true
Only to you, then my love
My love, my love is ready for you.
Girl, i've heard it said
That love is good for the soul
I see the hunger in your eyes
Burning out of control
My love is overflowing from a loving cup
Girl, i know you're down
But love will lift you up.
Chorus
My love is overflowing from a loving cup
Girl, i know your're down
But love will lift you up

9.Peaceful Easy Feeling
(j. tempchin)
(track 10 - time 4:18)
I like the way your sparklin' earrings lay
Against your skin so brown
I wanna sleep with you in the desert tonight
With a billion stars all around
'cause i got a peaceful easy feelin'
And i know you won't let me down
'cause i'm already standing on the ground
And i found out a long time ago
What a woman can do to your soul
Oh but she can't take you anyway
You don't already know how to go
And i got a peaceful, easy feelin'
And i know you won't let me down
'cause i'm already standing on the ground
I get this feelin' i may know you
As a lover and friend
But this voice keeps whisperin' in my other ear
Tells me i may never see you again
'cause i get a peaceful easy feelin'
And i know you won't let me down
'cause i'm already standing i'm already standing
Yes i'm already standing on the ground
10.Some Guys Have All The Love
(porter howell/dwayne o'brien)
(track 1 - time 2:52)
Some guys have all the luck
There's gold in everything they touch
But all of the work i've done
Never did amount to much
I don't live what some call the good life
But i've got a good life with you
Some guys have all the money
Fame and fortune we all dream of
But i thank the stars above me
That i've got you and that's enough
Some guys have all the love
No matter how good my plan is
It always seems to come undone
In a lifetime of takin' chances
You're the only thing i've won
I'm still not what some call a winner
But with you there's no way i can lose
Some guys have all the money
Fame and fortune we all dream of
But i thank the stars above me
That i've got you and that's enough
Some guys have all the love
Well i guess i'm what some call a dreamer
But at least i've had one that came true
Some guys have all the money
Fame and fortune we all dream of
But i thank the stars above me
That i've got you and that's enough
Some guys have all the love
Some guys have all the love
Some guys have all the love
11.What Might Have Been
Sure i think about you now and then
But it's been a long, long time.
I've got a good life now, i've moved on
So when you cross my mind....
Chorus:
(i, so, and) try not to think about
What might have been
'cause that was then
And we've taken different roads
We can't go back again, there's no use giving in
And there's no way to know
What might have been.
We could sit and talk about this all night long,
And wonder why we didn't last
Yes, they might be the best days we will ever know
But we'll have to leave them in the past.
Chorus
That same old look in your eyes
It's a beautiful night
I'm so tempted to stay
But too much time has gone by
We should just say goodbye
And turn and walk away.
Chorus
No, we'll never know
What might have been
12.You And Forever And Me
(porter howell/stewart harris)
(track 4 - time 3:44)
The moon is off my shoulder
The sun is in my eyes
Almost to my hometown
It's just another mile
Memories surround me
Of an old familar time
Life was simple then
When your love was mine
There's a cool wind
On the desert tonight
I can almost see your golden hair
Flyin' in the moonlight
And ooo it was a restless kinda free
When it was you and forever and me
I pull off the highway
On your side of town
Make the turn past the railroad tracks
As the sun goes down
I remember how you would wait
By the front porch light
You were always ready
To take a midnight ride
There's a cool wind
On the desert tonight
I can almost see your golden hair
Flyin' in the moonlight
And ooo it was a restless kinda free
When it was you and forever and me
Sometimes love gets lost
And it's never found
But i just had to see
If you're still around
There's a cool wind
On the desert tonight
I can almost see your golden hair
Flyin' in the moonlight
And ooo it was a restless kinda free
When it was you and forever and me
Ooo it was a restless kinda free
When it was you and forever and me
