1. _ The Steal Of The Night
The band had just started when they walked in the door
He sat her at a table and strolled out on the floor
He grabbed the first sweet thang that gave him the eye
And left the door open for the steal of the night
Three dances later she was still in her chair
He was still on the dance floor like he didn't care
So i eased on over, there was no ring in sight
And i found myself facing the steal of the night.
(chorus)
She was the steal of the night,
Oh yeah, she was the steal of the night
He long hair flowing and her jeans so tight
I held her close and it felt so right
She was the steal of the night
Oh yeah, she was the steal of the night
He left her lonely and the pickings were right
She was the steal of the night
We danced every slow one the band could play
Was it ever this easy for ole jesse james
Had the gold in my hands and the banker was blind
Just inches away from the steal of the night
When the band stopped playing we walked to the car
As i closed the door he ran out of the bar
Saw him shaking his fist under the parking lot light
As i strolled away with the steal of the night
(repeat chorus)
(repeat chorus and fade out)

2. _ Heartbroke
Now who wouldn't notice the fire in your eyes
Or the bitter direction of impending good-byes
I've followed and folded, i'm wilted in place
At the sight of you standing with streaks down your face
With your heart broke and running from the reason
You got your heart broke, don't give up on believing in me
Heart broke, who kept me from leaving?
With my heart broke
Now pride is a drag and a bore when you're lonely
Sheer madness prevails upon reason to you
But all is not lost, it's only mistaken
That's small consolation but i know just how you feel
With your heart broke and running from the reason
You got your heart broke, don't give up on believing in me
Heart broke , who kept me from leaving?
With my heart broke
Nobody said it was going to be easy
We all have feelings that need a softer touch
But nobody said that it would not be worth it
The human condition continues as such
With your heart broke and running from the reason
Youõve got your heart broke, don't give up on believing in me
Heart broke, who kept me from leaving?
With my heart broke, youõve got me heart broke

3. _ The Only Thing I Have Left
Some people say i'm one of those guys the blessings of life over looked.
Sometimes i feel like the tattered, torn pages of some old paperback book.
All the places i've played and the money i made, i've still got nothin' to show.
And the only thing i have left in the whole wide world is you.
(chorus)
I gave it all i had every night for all these years,
Pourin' out my soul till it was gone.
I spread myself so thin that i'm just barely hangin' on.
But tonight i'm with you, you can carry me through; just love me.
'cause the only thing i have left in the whole wide world is you.
You put your whole life into something you love,
But you never get that one big break
That'll take you out of the backstreet bar and put you on center stage
But a million tears and million beers have just about washed me up.
(chorus)
The only thing i have left is you.

4. _ Honky Tonk Crazy
There's a hundred dollar bill on the table
To get me through the night
Got a tight blue jean honky tonk queen
To hold me tightand the cowboy bands in mission
Of texas waltz
It's music to my ears and a need to hear
To keep me from climbing the wall
Cause tonight i'll be honky tonk crazy
Rip roaring wild, one more time
Tonight i'll be, honky tonk crazy
Let the whiskey whisk her out of my mind
Let the whiskey whisk her out of my mind
Got all my friends around me
Telling the latest jokes
They can't see the joke's on me
I'm at the end of my rope
So i step out side and drink one
In the driving rain
That's all right if i'm high tonight
Cause she's already drove me insane.
Cause tonight i'll be honky tonk crazy
Rip roaring wild, one more time
Tonight i'll be, honky tonk crazy
Let the whiskey whisk her out of my mind
Let the whiskey whisk her out of my mind
Oh, let the whiskey whisk her out of my mind

5. _ Marina Del Ray
We said goodbye
In marina del rey
"i had a good time"
Was the last thing i heard her say
As i walked away
And on this plane back to tennessee
My mind comes across her memory
And yesterday
In marina del rey
Chorus:
On a hidden beach under a golden sun
She spread a blanket
That we laid down on and loved the world away
In marina del rey
And as we looked into each other's eyes
We found our body's lost in paradise
Like castaways
In marina del rey
Like the ocean tides
High and lows
Love sometimes comes and goes away
In marina del rey
And as this plane is touching down
Tears touch my eyes for i have found
My heart has stayed
In marina del rey
Chorus

6. _ Fool Hearted Memory
Nickels and dimes
Memories and wines
She's on his mind once again
The same old fool
The same old stool
Played by the rules but didn't win
There's an old love in his heart that he can't lose
He tried forgetting but he knows that it's no use
Chorus:
He's got a fool hearted memory
That won't let him see
That she walked out the door
He's got a fool hearted memory
He sits patiently
Here every night so it can fool him more
She was his girl
His only whirl
That string of pearls that slipped away
A thousand dimes
A thousand times
He doesn't mind what they say
He fills the jukebox
And plays the same old song
He fills his glass
And then he turns her memory on
Chorus

7. _ Lover In Disguise
There's a secret that i know about the lady that i love so
And i'm the only one she's shown her secret to
She's gentle and she's kind
She's proper and refine
But she lets down more than her hair
Alone in our room
Chorus:
Cause she's more than a lady
And there's a fire that burns behind those eyes
She's more than a lady
And every night when we lay down
And she slips off her satin gown
Oh, she proves she's a lover in disguise
She's a lover in disguise
When we go out somewhere
The men may stop and stare
But they see she's a lady
So they leave her alone
She's more than she seems
And in their wildest dreams
They could never dream of what it's like to take her home
Repeat chorus
She's a lover in disguise
She's a lover in disguise
She's a lover in disguise

8. _ I Can't See Texas From Here
I come and go as i please
From down here, up north and in between
But baby it's a shame, 'cause i always feel the same
When i can't see texas from here
I can't see texas from here
No matter how i try, it makes me wanna die
So if you see me looking down, i'm trying not to show this frown
'cause i can't see texas from here
I can't say i don't like tennessee
The people here have all been good to me
So please don't take offense if i start to gettinõ tense
It's just 'cause i can't see texas from here
I can't see texas from here
No matter how i try, it makes me wanna die
So if you see me looking down, i'm trying not to show this frown
'cause i can't see texas from here

9. _ Amarillo By Morning
amarillo by morning
Up from san antone
Everything that i've got
Is just what i've got on
When that sun is high
In that texas sky
I'll be bucking it to county fair
Amarillo by morning
Amarillo i'll be there
They took my saddle in houston
Broke my leg in sante fe
Lost my wife and a girlfriend
Somewhere along the way
Well i'll be looking for eight
When they pull that gate
And i'm hoping that
Judge ain't blind
Amarillo by morning
Amarillo's on my mind
Amarillo by morning
Up from san antone
Everything that i've got
Is just what i've got on
I ain't got a dime
But what i've got is mine
I ain't rich
But lord i'm free
Amarillo by morning
Amarillo's where i'll be
Amarillo by morning
Amarillo's where i'll be

10. _ The Fire I Can't Put Out
I'm finding out how hot
An old flame can burn
You're a feeling i haven't forgot
The love i can't unlearn
You've become a memory
I can't live without
You'll always be a fire i can't put out
I don't know how to handle
The dream you left behind
It's like a lighted candle
Burning up my mind
At least i'm happy knowing
What love is all about
You'll always be a fire i can't put out
Embers to ashes
That's how it should be
You'd think by know my heart would know
And it could set you free
The things i've tried
The tears i've cried
I guess there's no doubt
You'll always be a fire i can't put out
I don't know how to handle
The dream you left behind
It's like a lighted candle
Burning up my mind
At least i'm happy knowing
What love is all about
You'll always be a fire i can't put out
What love is all about
You'll always be a fire i can't put out
