Soul
Soul, Soul, Soul
you fight for a minute, think your gonna win it
dont wanna be wrong, make the battle long
too close to call, pride will see you fall
this circle of sin, you do not have to win
love will make you wait, never let you hate
give love you live, be quick forgive
Soul, Soul, Soul
love will build her up, bend your ear, shut up
love will make you joy, it'll grow you up boy
love will run from evil, will keep you civil
love will always hope, when you’re on the rope
love will suffer long, will do no wrong
you will bear all things, love will give you wings
Soul, Soul, Soul

A Small Town Wedding
well there you are, your pretty face looking out the window down at me, I truly see
I’d serenade you, but I’d wake up the all the neighbors and family, and your daddy
how bout a small town wedding
we can saddle up and ride this dusty trail to the end of the road
A small town wedding
will you take me with these spurs and saddle sores, i’ll take a few more
well here we are, never thought this day would come to be, it’s you and me baby
I am here for you, we’ll build this together now that your mine, one for all time
how bout a small town wedding
we can saddle up and ride this dusty trail to the end of the road
A small town wedding
will you take me with these spurs and saddle sores, i’ll take a few more
well here we go, we will chase a future that no one knows, all hat no cattle
roll up that dream, wake to love like no one ever seen, my small town queen
how bout a small town wedding
we can saddle up and ride this dusty trail to the end of the road
A small town wedding
will you take me with these spurs and saddle sores, i’ll take a few more
will you marry me my girl, marry me my girl

My Little Kingdom
drove up from Texas to the Tennessee line
gave up chasing money for a little free time
Play a ball game on a sunny summer day
chased away the blues when I learned how to say
another happy day, my little kingdom, yeah, yeah, yeah
up ada up ada rock a top bay
up ada up things are going my way
went to the water to relax for a while
diamond waves calling out for a mile
airplanes dancing on vapor trails
the captains crew work the ship sails
another happy day, my little kingdom
up ada up ada rock a top bay
up ada up things are going my way
time at home is a welcome thing
I can relax, away from everything
close the door spin a record real slow
drift away to places only I know
another happy day, my little kingdom
up ada up ada rock a top bay
up ada up things are going my way
another happy day, my little kingdom

Listen Generously
I used to run with the ugly crowd
we were jerks and we were kinda loud
my inner struggle took a timely toll
finally had to kill that inner troll
i found no truth deep in the night
truth be told you were always right
I’m not too proud that's what I came here for
give me your time, I’ll try to give you more
I try to listen, ya
I try to listen now, I try to listen
if you don’t it’ll wreck your mind
you were trying save me sorrow, peace no matter my tomorrow
came my way, have to say, you shook those fears away
they came from Austin to the Cotton Bowl
another gig up north in Idaho
they stirred a frenzy with a flying cat
sounded so cool but their words fell flat
they found the truth later that night
like you told me, you were always right
I’m not too proud that's what I came here for
give me your time, I’ll try to give you more
I try to listen, ya
I try to listen now, I try to listen
if you don’t it’ll wreck your mind

Humble Town
I stood alone on a slient road
no one knows what this man sees
My horse went down, fell with no sound
one last hill to climb, upon my knees
why can’t time stand still, and hold the future, come what will, and let me rule my hill for that moment
My Hill, My Will
We Gather now in humble town
My Hill, My Will
The rain fell down, on my rusty crown
my time was now a long lost day
people gathered round that forsaken ground
and saw my sin washed away
I knew that blood was mine, cover me once for all time, now let me be refined
My Hill, My Will
We Gather now in humble town
My Hill, My Will

And The Horse You Rode In On
Al Gore is flying in a gas sucking plane
Florida will be swallowed by the sea
Meanwhile, me and barney push a flinstone car, far
I live so efficiently, you see
so who is the greedy, wasteful pig
my hat is off to Al, and the plane he flew in on
Now they, call me racist for the color of my skin
Martin is rolling over in his grave
I see every color of the pretty rainbow, you know
yet a hard working, white imigrant is to blame
They divide us for their own gain
and replace the american dream, with the rage they rode in on
I live the solution every day
may hat is off to you, and the horse you rode in on
they say, hate the people that you work for, for sure
uncle sam will take care of everything, for free
meanwhile, I'm bigot with my bible and my gun
I say live and let people be
while I help people help themselves
my hat is off to you, and the vote you rode in on
but if you want me to play the victim here
my hat is off to you, and the horse you rode in on
Al Gore is flying in a gas sucking plane
Florida will be swallowed by the sea, Because of me

They Are Not You
So you broke down and they saw you crying
opened your heart inside they were spying
but they don’t care, why does no one care
they smile and watch you go, turn around and so
ignore them now, and what they do
I am by your side, they are not you
So you left town and went to your I land
waiting for someone to lend you a hand
but they don’t care, why does no one care
they smile and watch you go, turn around and so
ignore them now, and what they do
I am by your side, they are not you
stand tall and walk this way
show them that smile, that happy smile, and walk away
Times may be trying, Ain't no more crying
Leave lonely island, time to be sailing
raise those sails catch the morning breeze,
hope, love and joy you will have these
there far more ahead in your future than,
anything been done or seen by man
only God knows the person you will be,
as you cross the wide blue sea
