1. _ Stars Over Texas
stars over texas
As you lie in my arms
Girl my hearts on my sleeve
Words come so hard, in moments like these
Theres feelings i have, that are so hard to show
But right now theres one thing
I want you to know
(chorus)
As long as the tides ebb
The earth turns the sun sets
I promise i'll always be true
And as long as theres stars over texas
Darling i'll hang the moon for you
I know i have stumbled and caused you some tears
When you needed me most i haven't always been here
I know i'm not always the man i should be
But don't ever wonder what you mean to me
(repeat chorus)
(tag)
And as long as theres stars over texas
Darling i'll hang the moon for you
Darling i'll hang the moon for you

2. _ Is That A Tear
The last thing i expected was to get her call tonight
'cause the last thing that i'd heard from her
Was she'd found mr. right
But when i came home this evenin'
There it was on my machine
Now i'm just wondering what the hell it means
(chorus)
She said she's sorry that she missed me
And she's been doin' just fine
I've run it back and heard her say
Those words a hundred times
But something makes me wonder
Is she happy with her choice
Or is that a tear i hear in her voice
___
The first time that i listened
I thought boy she's got some nerve
But the second time i heard it
I heard more than just her words
Am i just wishful thinkin
Or did her voice really crack
I'll never know if i don't call her back
(repeat chorus)
(tag)
Oh is that a tear
Lord is that a tear i hear in her voice

3. _ Speed Of A Fool
Couldn't tell me nothing
Had to learn it on my own
On the restless side of seventeen
The day that i left home
Screaming down that highway
With a passion to break any rules
I went crashing at the speed of a fool
She was serving all night coffee
At a san antonio cafe
She was headed nowhere
I was headed her way
With a trusting soul and a naive heart
There was nothing i could do
So i went crashing , at the speed of a fool
(chorus)
You're either born for holding back
Or bound for letting go
So i throw caution to the wind
Wherever it may blow
It's the only way i know
I go crashing at the speed of a fool
Got a hunger for that highway
I know will never end
Lord i can't help what i'm not
And won't change what i am
Til' the roll is called up yonder
To my own self i'll be true
And go crashing at the speed of a fool
(repeat chorus)
(tag)
I go crashing at the speed of a fool

4. _ Time Marches On
Sister cries out from her baby bed
Brother runs in feathers on his head
Mamma's in her room learning how to sew
Daddy's drinking beer, listening to the radio
Hank williams sings "kaw liga" and ""dear john"
And time marches on, time marches on
Sisters using rouge and clear complexion soap
Brothers wearing beads and he smokes alot of dope
Mamma is depressed, barely makes a sound
Daddy's got a girlfriend in another town
Bob dylan sings "like a rolling stone"
And time marches on, time marches on
(bridge)
The south moves north, the north moves south
A star is born, a star burns out
The only thing that stays the same
Is everything changes, everything changes
Sister calls herself a sexy grandma
Brothers on a diet for high cholesterol
Mamma's out of touch with reality
Daddy's in the ground beneath a maple tree
As the angels sing an old hank williams song
Time marches on, time marches on
Time marches on, time marches on
Time marches on, time marches on

5. _ If You Loved Me
I see the way he doesn't treat you right
I see the tears that you try to hide
I feel that heartache that you don't show
Wish i had a way to let you know
(chorus)
I would be the shoulder you could cry on
The heart and soul you know you could rely on
With every breath i'll ever take
I swear i'd never let forever end
If you loved me
If you loved me again
___
There was a time i had it all with you
'til it came undone, from what i didn't do
Now he's making the same mistakes
And when he loses you, if it's not to late
(repeat chorus)
(tag)
With every breath i'll ever take
I swear i'd never let forever end
If you loved me
If you loved me again

6. _ Different Man
Who knows what i'm doing here tonight on this barstool
As if i didn't know where i should be
Through the darkness of the dim neon, and lonely shade of blue
The light is a mighty hard thing to see
But sitting here, it just occurred to me
(chorus)
I was the man she counted on
To do her right, lord she was wrong
I was the man who wasn't there
Who made it seem he didn't care
Now she needs someone to hold her
To make her feel alive
And she'll be with a different man tonight
I can't believe i turned my back to the love there in her heart
And turned away from those tears in her eyes
Now i know where i belong is right there in her arms
Though it took so long for me to see the light
I'm leaving here a different man tonight
(repeat chorus)
(tag)
Now she needs someone to hold her
And make her feel alive
And she'll be with a different man tonight
Oh she'll be with a different man tonight

7. _ Exciteable Boy
I was one or two just lying in my crib
Shaking that rattle like i always did
Susie strolled in, that little girl next door
Next thing you know we were rolling on the floor
Mama came a runnin' to her liittle pride and joy
Said bless his little heart he's an exciteable boy
High school redneck rebel to the bone
Running eighty miles an hour in a thirty mile zone
Steal a little kiss--skip a little school
Break another heart, bend another rule
Cop tells the principle he's only making noise
Cut the kid some slack, he's an exciteable boy
(chorus)
I've been a renegade
Since the day i was born
I get a little carried away
Never meant to do nobody no harm
I got a rock it, i can't stop it
I ain't about to change
Parking with my darling fogging up the glass
Slipping cross' the truck seat trying to make a pass
My baby said stop we gotta take it slow
But you know me, i'm always raring to go
It's the way i am, i don't have no choice
What can i say, i'm an exciteable boy
(repeat chorus)
(tag)
What can i say, i'm an exciteable boy
What can i say, i'm an exciteable boy
Ah you know i just can't help myself
It's just the way i am

8. _ I Know That Hurt By Heart
It's dark in here tonight
A great place to come and hide from the blues
Hey, i don't mean to intrude
But i've seen that look before
I've heard that slamming door too
Just like you
(chorus)
I know that hurt by heart
I've been right where you are
I know how it feels when your world is falling apart
You're not alone tonight
I know what lonely is like
I've still got the scars
I know that hurt by heart
Hope you don't take this wrong
But that smile you're putting on can't disguise
These tears in your eyes
And laughing like you don't care
Can't ease the pain down there inside
Beleive me, i've tried
(repeat chorus)
(tag)
You're not alone tonight
I know what lonely is like
I've still got the scars
I know that hurt by heart
I've still got the scars
I know that hurt by heart

9. _ Somewhere Between The Moon And You
Sittin here in ft.worth and for what it's worth
It might as well be timbucktu
Girl, i'm missing you
The further i go in life, the more i realize
I'm no closer to that elusive moon
I can't put out your fire cause everywhere i turn
Theres a memory to burn
(chorus)
Somewhere between the moon and you
I'm fighting off the chill of the cold hard truth
That rainbow i've been chasing left my whole world blue
I lost my dreams somewhere between the moon and you
I still see your smile and it haunts me every mile
Along this winding road
That i walk alone
They say that time should ease the pain
But in my heart a bitter rain still lingers on
How could i have been so wrong
I climbed that ladder thinkin' i could never fall
Until i lost it all
(repeat chorus)
(tag)
That rainbow i've been chasin' left my whole world blue
I lost my dreams somewhere between the moon and you

10. _ From What We Give
Johnny baker works down at the mill
Makes enough to make ends meet
And pay his bills
Even though he comes from the wrong side of the tracks
He's the first on there to lend a hand
Or give the shirt right off his back
(chorus)
From what we give we make a living
Those dollars, diamonds and gold
But that old cliche' is a given
You reap what you sow
When you reach out your hand and heart
Then your soul is satisfied
From what we give we make a living
From what we give
We make a life
Mr. millers got a mansion on the hill
He spent his whole life
Chasing that almighty dollar bill
But all his so-called riches
Somethings missing in his soul
It takes more than having everything
To make a man feel whole
(repeat chorus)
(tag)
When you reach out your hand and your heart
Then your soul is satisfied
From what we give we make a living
From what we give
We make a life
From what we give we make a living
From what we give
We make a life
