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
