You say you were wrong to ever leave me alone
And now you're sorry, you're lonesome and scared
And you say you'd be happy if you could just come back home
Well, here's a quarter, call someone who cares
Call someone who'll listen and might give a damn
Maybe one of your sorted affairs
But don't you come around here handin' me none of your lies
Here's a quarter, call someone who cares
(yeah)
Girl, I thought what we had could never turn bad
So your leavin' caught me unaware
But the fact is you've run, girl, that can't be undone
So here's a quarter, call someone who cares
Call someone who'll listen, yeah, and might give a damn
Maybe one of your sorted affairs
But don't you come around here handin' me none of your lies
Here's a quarter, call someone who cares
Yeah, here's a quarter, call someone who cares
Oh, yeah

Anymore
I can't hide the way I feel about you anymore
I can't hold the hurt inside, keep the pain out of my eyes anymore
My tears no longer waiting, my resistance ain't that strong
My mind keeps recreating a life with you alone
And I'm tired of pretending I don't love you anymore
Let me make one last appeal to show you how I feel about you
'Cause there's no one else I swear that holds a candle anywhere next to you
My heart can't take the beating, not having you to hold
A small voice keeps repeating deep inside my soul
It says I can't keep pretending I don't love you anymore
I've got to take the chance or let it pass by
If I expect to get on with my life
My tears no longer waiting, oohh my resistance ain't that strong
But my mind keeps recreating a life with you alone
And I'm tired of pretending I don't love you anymore
Anymore
Anymore

And I'm tired of pretending I don't love you anymore

Put Some Drive In Your Country
Well, I was raised on country classics
Like Roy Acuff and George Jones
Lord, I loved to hear 'em
Sing all them old-time country songs
But I really got excited
'Bout the time I turned fifteen
That's the first time I heard Waylon
And old Bocephus sing
They put some drive in their country
That really turned me on
Yeah, put some drive in your country
Keep country drivin' on
When the music gets you movin'
You know that can't be wrong
Every time I hear that outlaw stuff
On my car radio
It makes me wanna drive it
Just as fast as it will go
Put some drive in your country
Let's keep country drivin' on
We played some shows in Atlanta
On Sunday afternoons
The gigs were packed and I was nervous
'Cause I wanted folks to like my tunes
The crowds were full of younger people
They were all about my age
So I turned and told the band
Just before we walked on stage
Put some drive in your country, fellas
We turned those people on, oh, yes we did
Yeah, put some drive in your country
Keep country drivin' on
When the music gets you dancin'
You know that can't be wrong
See, I made myself a promise
When I was just a kid
I'd mix southern rock and country
And that's just what I did
Put some drive in your country
Keep country drivin' on
Put some drive in your country
Hey, let's keep country drivin' on
When the music gets you movin'
You know that can't be wrong
I still love old country
I ain't tryin' to put it down
Damn, I miss Duane Allman
I wish he was still around
Put some drive in the country
Keep country drivin' on
Yeah, put some drive in the country
Yeah, let's keep country drivin' on, yeah
Like Roy Acuff and George Jones
Lord, I loved to hear 'em
Sing all them old-time country songs

Foolish Pride
She stayed up all night and cried into her pillow
And fought off the urge to just break down and call
Last night to find the fault seemed so darn easy
But now who's to blame don't matter much at all
She thinks if she calls him, it just shows weakness
So the hurt goes on with every tear she's cried
Ain't it sad to see a good love fall to pieces
Chalk another heartbreak up to foolish pride
Turn out the lights, the competition's over
The stubborn souls are the losers here tonight
And while the bridges burn
Another hard hard lesson's learned
As in the ashes, passion slowly dies
And this romance goes down to foolish pride
He relives every word they spoke in anger
He walks the floor and punches out the wall
To apologize to her, would be so simple
But instead he cries, 'I'll be damned if I crawl'
If he loses her, he's lost his best friend
And more than just a lover can provide
So he wrestles with emotions that defeat him
Chalk another love lost up to foolish pride
[Repeat Chorus]
And fought off the urge to just break down and call

Ain't it sad to see a good love fall to pieces

The Whiskey Aint Workin
[ Featuring Marty Stuart ]
There was a time I could drink my cares away
And drown out all of the heartaches that hurt me night and day
When the thought of you came crashin' through, I'd have one more
But now the whiskey ain't workin' anymore
I need one good honky tonk angel to turn my life around
That's reason enough for me to lay this old bottle down
A woman warm and willing, that's what I'm looking for
'Cause the whiskey ain't workin' anymore
They knew my name at every bar in town
And they knew all of the reasons why I was coming round, round, round (sing it, Travis)
'Cause in my mind, peace I'd find, when they'd start to pour
But now the whiskey ain't workin' anymore (sing it, son)
I need one good honky tonk angel to turn my life around
That's reason enough for me to lay this old bottle down
Well, a woman warm and willing, Lord, that's what I'm looking for (that's right)
'Cause the whiskey ain't workin' anymore
Lord, the whiskey ain't workin' anymore
That's for sure

Help Me Hold On
Baby, close that suitcase you've been packin'
Just sit down and talk to me awhile
I know you tried to tell me what was lackin'
But I guess I must have missed it by a mile
Well, this time girl I swear to you I'll listen
Help me understand where I went wrong
It's hard to find myself in this position
Scared that I'll go crazy once you're gone
Help me hold on to what we had
Once our love was strong, it can be again
You said it takes two to make love last
You were right all along, so help me hold on
What have I got to do to make it better
What have I got to do to make you see
That even though I promised you forever
I never knew how hard that would be
I realize I took your love for granted
But I've learned that love worth having don't come free
And I'll pay any price it takes to keep you
Satisfied and staying here with me
Help me hold on to what we had
Once our love was strong, it can be again
You said it takes two to make love last
You were right all along, so help me hold on
Help me hold on to what we had
Once our love was strong, it can be again
You said it takes two to make love last
You were right all along, so help me hold on
You were right all along, so help me hold on
Just sit down and talk to me awhile
I know you tried to tell me what was lackin'
But I guess I must have missed it by a mile
Well, this time girl I swear to you I'll listen
Help me understand where I went wrong
It's hard to find myself in this position
Scared that I'll go crazy once you're gone
Help me hold on to what we had
Once our love was strong, it can be again
You said it takes two to make love last

What have I got to do to make it better
What have I got to do to make you see
That even though I promised you forever
I never knew how hard that would be
I realize I took your love for granted
But I've learned that love worth having don't come free
And I'll pay any price it takes to keep you
Satisfied and staying here with me
Help me hold on to what we had
Once our love was strong, it can be again

Im Gonna Be Somebody
Bobby played his guitar on the harder side of town
Where it's hard for a poor boy to find the money
He had dedication, he had the heart and soul
Somehow knew he was born to play
People say get a real job support your family
'Cause there's no future on the road your takin'
But he never said a word, the dreamer just kept on
Late at night you could hear him say, he'd say
I'm gonna be somebody
One of these days I'm gonna break these chains
I'm gonna be somebody someday
You can bet your hard-earned dollar I will
The road was a struggle, took him ten years to the top
And now he's number one on the stage and the radio
Still he can't believe how people come from miles around
When it seems like only yesterday when he would say
I'm gonna be somebody
One of these days I'm gonna break these chains
I'm gonna be somebody someday
You can bet your hard-earned dollar I will, yeah, yeah, yeah
Bobby played his hometown, one full moon August night
When He heard a voice in the front row singing
It was a sandy-haired river boy with same ol' hungry eyes
He looked up at Bobby and said
Mmm, I'm gonna be somebody
One of these days I'm gonna break these chains
And I'm gonna be somebody someday
You can bet your hard-earned dollar I will
You know I will, yeah, yeah
I'm gonna be somebody
One of these days I'm gonna break these chains
I'm gonna be somebody someday
You can bet your hard-earned dollar I will, oh yeah
You can bet your hard-earned dollar I will
Where it's hard for a poor boy to find the money
He had dedication, he had the heart and soul
Somehow knew he was born to play
People say get a real job support your family
'Cause there's no future on the road your takin'
But he never said a word, the dreamer just kept on

Only you, can make this world seem right
Only you, can make the darkness bright
Only you, and you alone can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you
Only you, can make this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand
I understand the magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you
Only you, can make this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand
I understand the magic that you do

Tell Me I Was Dreaming
When I woke up this morning
Wiped the sleep from my eyes
I found a new day dawning
And suddenly I realize
You're gone
Tell me I was dreaming
That you didn't leave me here to cry
You didn't say
You don't love me anymore
It was just my imagination telling lies
Tell me that you didn't say goodbye
I'm in a state of confusion
I hope things aren't what they seem
If this is really happening
Just let me go back to dream
You're home
Tell me I was dreaming
That you didn't leave me here to cry
You didn't say
You don't love me anymore
It was just my imagination telling lies
Tell me that you didn't say goodbye
Tell me I was dreaming (tell me I was dreaming)
That you didn't leave me here to cry
You didn't say
You don't love me anymore
It was just my imagination telling lies
Oh, tell me that you didn't say goodbye
Darlin', tell me
You didn't say
Goodbye
Wiped the sleep from my eyes
I found a new day dawning
And suddenly I realize
You're gone
Tell me I was dreaming
That you didn't leave me here to cry
You didn't say
You don't love me anymore
It was just my imagination telling lies
Tell me that you didn't say goodbye
I'm in a state of confusion
I hope things aren't what they seem
If this is really happening
Just let me go back to dream
You're home
Tell me I was dreaming
That you didn't leave me here to cry

Country Club
I took a double take out on the interstate
When I saw her makin' eyes at me
So I followed her down to clubhouse drive
Past the pool & the 18th green
& In the parkin' lot...I said it's mighty hot
Maybe I could buy you a beer
She said I'm glad you asked...but I'll have to pass
Cause only members are allowed in here...and I said
[Chorus:]
Well I'm a member of a country club
Country music is what I love
I drive an old Ford pick-up truck
I do my drink-in from a dixie cup
Yea I'm a bona-fide dancin' fool
I shoot a mighty mean game of pool
At any honky-tonk or roadside pub
I'm a member of a country club
You look so invitin'...thought it might be excitin'
For a woman with a limousine
To go bouncin around...in a beat up truck
With a man...in wore out jeans
It's five o'clock before Friday night
Here's where the fun begins
So don't worry 'bout your reputation
Cause you can tell all your friends
[Chorus 2x]
When I saw her makin' eyes at me

Can I Trust You With My Heart
When you meet that certain someone,
You've been searchin hard to find......
It's a new love full of passion,
That can sometimes make you blind.
I don't mind being swept away,
If I know right from the start.......
So before we go much further girl,
Can I trust you with my heart?
In the time we've spent together,
I have learned to trust in you.
So many things you given....
Before I even asked you to.
But reality and romance,
Are sometimes far apart.
So, what I really need to know is......
Can I trust you with my heart?
Can I cast my cares upon you?
Can you stand the heavy load?
Can I count on you to walk me, down that long and winding road?
If you promise me these simple things, I can gurantee.....
You can always count on me.
Can I cast my cares upon you?
Can you stand the heavy load?
Can I count on you to walk me, down that long and winding road?
When two hearts souly surrender, and are sworn to understand.....
It completes a perfect union, between a woman and a man.
So please don't misunderstand me,
I don't want to go too far,
Without knowing just one answer ......
Can I trust you with my heart?
Please Girl....
Give me just one answer....
Can I trust you with my heart?
You've been searchin hard to find......
It's a new love full of passion,
That can sometimes make you blind.
I don't mind being swept away,
If I know right from the start.......
So before we go much further girl,
Can I trust you with my heart?
In the time we've spent together,
I have learned to trust in you.
So many things you given....
Before I even asked you to.
But reality and romance,

Sometimes She Forgets
If you see her out tonight
And she tells you that it's just the lights
That bring her here and not her loneliness
That's what she says but sometimes she forgets
If she tells you she don't need a man
She's had all the comfort she can stand
You best believe every word she says
But don't give up 'cause sometimes she forgets
And sometimes she forgets that not too long ago she swore
She wasn't gonna let her heart be broken anymore
So now she keeps it locked away
And it grows colder everyday
And it won't warm to any man's caress
That's what she says but sometimes she forgets
And sometimes she forgets that not too long ago she swore
She wasn't gonna let her heart be broken anymore
If you see her out tonight
And she tells you that it's just the lights
That bring her here and not her loneliness
That's what she says but sometimes she forgets
Yeah, that's what she says, but sometimes she forgets
So don't you dare give up 'cause sometimes she forgets
And she tells you that it's just the lights
That bring her here and not her loneliness
That's what she says but sometimes she forgets
If she tells you she don't need a man
She's had all the comfort she can stand
You best believe every word she says
But don't give up 'cause sometimes she forgets
And sometimes she forgets that not too long ago she swore
She wasn't gonna let her heart be broken anymore
So now she keeps it locked away
And it grows colder everyday
And it won't warm to any man's caress
That's what she says but sometimes she forgets
And sometimes she forgets that not too long ago she swore
She wasn't gonna let her heart be broken anymore
If you see her out tonight
And she tells you that it's just the lights
That bring her here and not her loneliness
That's what she says but sometimes she forgets
Yeah, that's what she says, but sometimes she forgets
So don't you dare give up 'cause sometimes she forgets

Ten Feet Tall And Bulletproof
I'm a full grown man
That's plain to see
But nowhere near as full grown
As I'd like to be
But I'll find a bar
And I'll have a few
Until I'm ten feet tall and bulletproof
Now, I'd hit the dance floor
Each time I'd have the chance
That is if these two left feet
Knew how to dance
'Bout the only time
I'm kicking up my shoes
Is when I'm ten feet tall and bulletproof
Well, I start to feel like Superman
Then I pick a fight
Only to find that my opponent's
Holding kryptonite
You'd think I'd learn my lesson
But, I'm still paying dues
Each time I drink and start to think
I'm ten feet tall and bulletproof
My woman left me
She called me a clown
Well, that's the general consensus
In this town
But I had it coming
Lord, to tell the truth
For acting ten feet tall and bulletproof
Well, I start to feel like Superman
Then I pick a fight
Only to find that my opponent's
Holding kryptonite
You'd think I'd learn my lesson
But, I'm still paying dues
Each time I drink and start to think
I'm ten feet tall and bulletproof
That's plain to see
But nowhere near as full grown
As I'd like to be
But I'll find a bar
And I'll have a few
Until I'm ten feet tall and bulletproof
Now, I'd hit the dance floor
Each time I'd have the chance
That is if these two left feet
Knew how to dance
'Bout the only time
I'm kicking up my shoes
Is when I'm ten feet tall and bulletproof
Well, I start to feel like Superman
Then I pick a fight
Only to find that my opponent's
Holding kryptonite
You'd think I'd learn my lesson
But, I'm still paying dues
Each time I drink and start to think
I'm ten feet tall and bulletproof
My woman left me
She called me a clown
Well, that's the general consensus
In this town
But I had it coming
Lord, to tell the truth
For acting ten feet tall and bulletproof
Well, I start to feel like Superman
Then I pick a fight

But, I'm still paying dues
Each time I drink and start to think
I'm ten feet tall and bulletproof

Drift Off To Dream
I sit here surrounded by people and lights
Alone with my drink at the bar
You've been here forever, so clear in my mind
I just don't know where you are
I know I'll find you but girl 'til I do
This is my love song for you
Let's hold hands on the porch swing, under the moon
While the wind through the willows plays us a tune
We can lie on a blanket, out back in the yard
And wish for our future on a faraway star
You'll feel the passion as time after time
I press your sweet lips to mine
Then we'll dance to the radio, right up 'til dawn
'Til you drift off to dream in my arms
You might be hundreds or more miles away
Or you might be just down the street
But there'll be a hunger deep in your eyes
That I'll recognize when we meet
It might take hours or it might take years
But this is the song you will hear
Let's hold hands on the porch swing, under the moon
While the wind through the willows plays us a tune
We can lie on a blanket, out back in the yard
And wish for our future on a faraway star
You'll feel the passion as time after time
I press your sweet lips to mine
Then we'll dance to the radio, right up 'til dawn
'Til you drift off to dream in my arms
Alone with my drink at the bar
You've been here forever, so clear in my mind
I just don't know where you are
I know I'll find you but girl 'til I do
This is my love song for you
Let's hold hands on the porch swing, under the moon
While the wind through the willows plays us a tune
We can lie on a blanket, out back in the yard
And wish for our future on a faraway star
You'll feel the passion as time after time
I press your sweet lips to mine
Then we'll dance to the radio, right up 'til dawn
'Til you drift off to dream in my arms
You might be hundreds or more miles away
Or you might be just down the street
But there'll be a hunger deep in your eyes
That I'll recognize when we meet
It might take hours or it might take years
But this is the song you will hear
Let's hold hands on the porch swing, under the moon
While the wind through the willows plays us a tune
We can lie on a blanket, out back in the yard
And wish for our future on a faraway star
You'll feel the passion as time after time
I press your sweet lips to mine
Then we'll dance to the radio, right up 'til dawn
'Til you drift off to dream in my arms
