1. PEACE, LOVE AND HORSES*
Right there in that summer dress, wild flowers in her hair
She can go anywhere on that palomino mare
She’s got Rocky Mountain ivory that she wears around her neck
And the Grateful Dead play a song in her head
(Chorus)
Somewhere between cowboy and hippie
She’s all about peace, love, horses, and me
She could end a war with just a smile
She can drive a tractor bailin' hay for miles and miles
She says innocence grows from right out of the ground
She believes in heaven, and what goes around comes around
(Chorus)
Somewhere between cowboy and hippie
She’s all about peace, love, horses, and me
(Bridge)
She remembers Chris LeDoux and that song that he sang
About two books with different covers, but the pages are the same
As certain as a river in the spring
You seal a deal with a hand shake, that's her philosophy
She can rope and ride and she likes hangin' out with me
She believes that love is the one thing that can change anything
(Chorus)
And she loves me and that's the part that gets me
It's all about peace, love, horses, and me

2. ADDICTED*
My teachers tried to warn me, stay away from that powerful stuff
My dad said son if you get started you won't ever be able to stop
Look at me now I'm doing fine and I'm happy to admit
I don't believe that hype you know I got a good life, but they say I'm addicted
(Chorus)
Addicted to drivin' down the road ridin' bronc’s and havin' fun
Addicted, well I'm really not, I could quit it any time I want
Even if I was hooked on rodeo, at least I’m not addicted to liquor or drugs
Well I could blow all my money and break all my bones, but I would never hurt anyone
I've always been the kind to be in control, I tell you that in my defense
'Cause the kind of bronc’s I've been drawin’ lately's got me questioning my common sense
Addiction’s a form of weakness, I know that to be true
You're gonna pay for a habit, I pray I don't have it just between me and you
(Chorus)
Addicted to drivin' down the road ridin' bronc’s and havin' fun
Addicted, well I'm really not, I could quit any time I want
Even if I was hooked on rodeo, at least I'm not addicted to liquor or drugs
It’s broken bones and bruises and self-induced abuses that'll never hurt anyone
(Bridge)
I’ve been thinkin' of slowin' down to spend some more time at home
I bought my girl a diamond ring so she don’t have to be alone
I ran into Eb Richie the other day, I asked him if he gets the itch
I said it's twenty years since you been on a bull I guess you finally got it licked
Then his eyes went wild and he started to shake, he said it hits him every spring
I said thanks Eb you're not helping me any, now I gotta hock a diamond ring
(Chorus)
Addicted to drivin’ down the road ridin' bronc’s and having fun
Addicted, well I really thought that I could quit it anytime I want
Now I’m sittin' here jones'n for a rodeo, might as well be liquor or drugs
Well I could blow all my money and break all my bones and I would never get enough
Well I blew all my money and that ain’t funny 'cause I just can't give it up

3. JUST ONE OF THE GUYS*
She pulls up in that old pick-up
In her dusty cowgirl boots and her faded Wrangler Jeans
She’s just some cowgirl you’ve hung out with since she was seventeen
Now she's thirty-three
She don't seem like the kind to ever settle down
She's just ridin' on a natural mountain high
When she gets bucked off she'll get up and shake it off
She’s just one of the guys
(Chorus)
She can rope and ride with all of us
She’s cold as ice if you lose her trust
Well it’s no disguise don’t believe those eyes
There’s no such thing as a girl who’s just one of the guys
If you find a girl like that don't ever let her go
Friend, take my advice and don't ask me how I know
She's the perfect summer sunset if she ever lets it show
Trust me, I know
(Chorus)
She can rope and ride with all of us
She’s cold as ice if you lose her trust
Well it’s no disguise don’t believe those eyes
There’s no such thing as a girl who’s just one of the guys
(Bridge)
Yeah, she's pretty tough, don’t' get me wrong
But every woman's heart is beautiful song
And there ain’t no shame in treating her that way
(Chorus)
She can rope and ride with all of us
She’s cold as ice if you lose her trust
Well it’s no disguise don’t believe those eyes
There’s no such thing as a girl who’s just one of the guys
She pulls up in that ol’ pick up

4. HONKEY TONK HALOS*
You’ve been livin’ on white lines and asphault
Time and strangers keep passin’ you by
Don’t you know that there’s a place you can go to?
Heaven’s just beneath the Wyoming sky
And there’s
(Chorus)
Honky tonk halos hanging on cowgirl angels
Storm clouds dancin’ on the open sky
Dusty roads that lead you down to blue water
It just might change that broke down look in your eye
You’ve been beat down, busted and broken
You’ve fallen on some real hard days
If you listen to the words I have spoken
You won’t even have to pass away
There’s
(Chorus)
Honky tonk halos hanging on cowgirl angels
Storm clouds dancin’ on the open sky
Dusty roads that lead you down to blue water
It just might change that broke down look in your eye
(Bridge)
It’s been a while since you’ve been in the saddle
I know that you feel all alone
We’ve all been down the road you have traveled
Maybe it’s time that you came on home
To
Honky tonk halos hanging on cowgirl angels
Storm clouds dancin’ on the open sky
Dusty roads that lead you down to blue water
It just might change that broke down look in your eye
(Chorus)
Honky tonk halos hanging on cowgirl angels
Storm clouds dancin’ on the open sky
Dusty roads that lead you down to blue water
It just might change that broke down look in your eye

5. WINTER BAJA SUN
The hay is stacked and the woods been split
The shoes are pulled and the steers been shipped
It's a good routine going on seven years
It's the reason he's alive, summer workin' at the O Bar Y
But he can't wait 'till the blue birds migrate
Because
(Chorus)
Richard takes the right fork road down south as far as it goes
Down where they call him Ricardo
He hung a buffalo in his bungalow
To remind himself where to go
When he's done soakin' up that winter Baja sun
Ridin' the ocean like cowboys do
In Bermuda shorts and his cowboy boots
Like the autumn leaves, the colors shine down inside the sea
Big corrals full of coral, there ain’t no need to quarrel
He sleeps away the hot part of the day
Because
(Chorus)
Richard takes the right fork road down south as far as it goes
Down where they call him Ricardo
He hung a buffalo in his bungalow
To remind himself where to go
When he's done soakin' up that winter Baja sun
(Bridge)
Sunny beaches, señoritas, big fiestas and margaritas
He knows Jimmy Buffet would be so proud
(Chorus)
Richard takes the right fork road down south as far as it goes
That's where they call him Ricardo
With sand between his toes, pocket full of pesos
Canteen full of Quervo Gold
He'll be soakin' up that winter Baja
Winter Baja, that winter Baja sun
6. HAVE A GOOD LIFE
I swear I wasn't looking
I just turned around and you were there
We spent all night talkin' 'bout the things that make us shine
and how we never wanted it like this
You're and angel, no doubt about it
You can see right through my disguise
And the way that you’re flying’s got me mesmerized
I know you’re something I could never forget
So
(Chorus)
Have a good life, I hardly know you at all
I may never see you again, but what a weekend
I'll miss you so much, I hope you remember my name
You could've been my best friend, but 'till our trails meet again
Have a good life
I'm like that pack of cigarettes
I’ve got nothin' you need
So go on livin' your dreams
and I'll keep chasin' mine
let's don't pretend that I don't have regrets
(Chorus)
Have a good life, I hardly know you at all
I may never see you again, but what a weekend
I'll miss you so much, I hope you remember my name
You could've been my best friend, but 'till our trails meet again
Have a good life
(Bridge)
Call it bad timing
Chalk it up to circumstance
It's over our heads and out of our hands
So
(Chorus)
Have a good life, I hardly know you at all
I may never see you again, but what a weekend
I'll miss you so much, I hope you remember my name
You could've been my best friend, but 'till our trails meet again
Have a good life
7. THE SAME DARK TRAIL*
Deep in the darkest canyon with ghosts at every turn
I’d crossed a thousand raging rivers and swore I’d never learn
The answer to a question I didn’t even know
Down the same dark trail you were traveling alone
Two thousand miles away from home
Into the western sunset you did roam
A hard way to go
(Chorus)
Down the same dark trail we were lost and found each other
And not many other lovers could endure the kinds of things that we’ve survived
Sometimes we ride down the same dark trail
Looking for the sunrise, we can see the light
Holding to each other, the feeling is so right
But the lightning and the thunder as they are
Confusion clouds the vision of our hearts
We fall apart
(Chorus)
Down the same dark trail we were lost and found each other
And our sisters and our brothers don’t know the pain that we try to hide, so we just ride
For our lives down the same dark trail
(Bridge)
But even on the darkest night you can still do something right
Even in the fiery midst of hell, you don’t have to fail
On the same dark trail
(Chorus)
Down the same dark trail we found God and saved each other
And our children will discover the answers to the questions that they don’t know
We have to let ‘em go down the same dark trail
Down the same dark trail

8. STEPPING DOWN*
It's been too long since I rode a bull
I hung it up when I went to school
Now I got this job, I wear this frown
So tonight I’m stepping down
Listen up boys, try to understand
I'll draw you a picture to make it make sense
There's the dirt, here's the clown
Tonight I’m stepping down
(Chorus)
I’m stepping down to ride a bull tonight at the rodeo
And I'll slide down on his back and away we go
Spinning round and round we'll be the highlight of the show
Before I go, I want you to know
Tonight I'm stepping down
Me and my girlfriend, we had a fight
There was this other guy, guess I was right
Been there before, I see the door
Tonight I'm stepping down
(Chorus)
I’m stepping down to ride a bull tonight at the rodeo
And I'll slide down on his back and away we go
Spinning round and round we'll be the highlight of the show
Before I go, I want you to know
Tonight I'm stepping down
(Bridge)
Promises and promotions, we all have our share
But sometimes this ol' life seems more than we can bear
And the best way to the top could be spinnin’ round and round
And sometimes to move up, you gotta step back down
About four seconds, a score of zero
Out of a job, but I'm a hero
I’ve got my pride and a new girlfriend
So tonight I’m stepping down
(Chorus)
I’m stepping down to ride a bull tonight at the rodeo
And I'll slide down on his back and away we go
Spinning round and round we'll be the highlight of the show
I gotta go ride another bull
Tonight I'm stepping down

9. END OF DAYS*
The ground is shaking, the ice is breakin', the water's rising
It's getting kind a hot down here
And there's a big change on the horizon
Girl, have no fear
I know we just met, but we don't have much time
Let's get out a here, put your hand in mine
(Chorus)
It's the end of days, let's saddle up and ride
Just you and me underneath that red moonlight
Up so high, we can watch it all go by
Put your arms around me better hold on tight
We may never get this chance again
This could be the end of days
You've been to church, and so have I, and we realize
This stories been foretold
We recognize signs of the times
So let's sit back and watch it unfold
I know we just met, but we don't have much time
Move on over here, press your lips to mine
(Chorus)
It's the end of days, let's saddle up and ride
Just you and me underneath that red moonlight
Up so high, we can watch it all go by
Lay around our campfire as the flames get higher
We may never get this chance again
This could be the end of days
(Bridge)
If Yellowstone goes, well I won't be surprised
Girl, I wanna see the fireworks in your eyes
There's hurricanes, and tornadoes, and tsunamis
Like we've never seen before
Well I 'm not trying to make you worry
About wars and rumors of wars
Like two disappearing glaciers, we may never be here again
I know what we should do while we still can
(Chorus)
It's the end of days, let's saddle up and ride
I wanna be alone with you when that red moon shines
Just you and me way back in those trees
I'm sure can find something to do
We'll never have a better excuse
This could be the end of days

10. PEOPLE FORGET
In one ear and out the other, sometimes we don't connect the dots
Somebody's going straight to hell and it ain’t our fault
Sometimes I whisper to myself, how could you sleep at night?
Anybody with a conscience
Anybody with a conscience
(Chorus)
People forget is doesn’t take too long
Why can't you forget about the little things that I've done wrong?
Yeah, people forget, baby, how 'bout you?
If you could forgive and even not forget, that would be okay, too
Well anybody will make a mistake, I'll be the first to admit
If you let go of any recollection then you let it happen over again
To go free just like they have when any one of us would've been hung
Isn't anybody watching?
Isn't anybody watching?
(Chorus)
People forget is doesn’t take too long
Why can't you forget about the little things that I've done wrong?
Yeah, people forget, baby, how 'bout you?
If you could forgive and even not forget, that would be okay, too
(Chorus)
People forget is doesn’t take too long
Why can't you forget about the little things that I've done wrong?
Yeah, people forget, baby, how 'bout you?
If you could forgive and even not forget, that would be okay, too
If you could forgive and even not forget, I could forgive you, too
11. SWEETWATER
Billy knew about it, Nellie knew about it to
So they fired up Billy's beat up truck and left right out of school
With millions of people out of work wonderin' what to do
Money doesn’t grow on trees, so they got down on their knees
(Chorus)
In that Sweetwater flowin' down through the rocks
It's kind a like lookin' for the prize in a Cracker Jack box
And they'd smoke some pot ‘n pan for gold
At least that's the story that I've been told
Livin' that California dream in Wyoming
They say it takes money to make a lot of money
Well Billy and Nellie are livin' on the milk and honey
Policy is the best prevention, now all they got to pay is attention
To the little shiny yellow pebbles in the sand
(Chorus)
In that Sweetwater flowin' down through the rocks
It's kind a like lookin' for the prize in a Cracker Jack box
And they'd smoke some pot ‘n pan for gold
At least that's the story that I've been told
Livin' that California dream in Wyoming
Now Nellie's got a Corvette, Billy bought a new pick-up truck
Some think they robbed a bank, others say they were dealin' drugs
They didn't go for a higher education, never needed a real vocation
They don't worry 'bout anything, they still get down on their knees
(Chorus)
In that Sweetwater flowin' down through the rocks
It’s kind a like lookin' for the prize in a Cracker Jack box
And they pray to God and pan for gold
Now the real story has been told
Livin' that California dream in Wyoming
Livin' that California dream in Wyoming
12. RIDE MY HORSE MORE*
City smoke in the air
You can see it from anywhere
There’s a million people driving around going nowhere
Buildings grew up all around me
But I still got a painted pony
Gonna give her a job ‘cause she’s fat and bored
I’m gonna ride my horse more
(Chorus)
Well I love to drive my truck, the open road feels pretty good
But just because you can doesn’t mean that you always should
And I can hardly breathe, man, this is killing me
I’m gonna ride my horse more
Mother Nature, she’s been beat up
I’d say she’s been abused
Now even the ocean is black and blue
Gasoline just turns to haze
And my wallet’s on empty anyways
Holding the reins is something I can afford
So I’m gonna ride my horse more
(Chorus)
Well I love to drive my truck, the open road feels pretty good
But just because you can doesn’t mean that you always should
And I can hardly breathe, man, this is killing me
I’m gonna ride my horse more
(Bridge)
Every body’s got an answer for the problems of today
Well you can find your own solution, as for me I’ve found my way
(Chorus)
‘cause I can hardly breathe, man, this is killing me
I’m gonna ride my horse more
Let’s ride!

Track list (click song title to open/close lyrics)
1. STRAIGHT FOR THE STORM
That ain’t a rain cloud in the sky
But it's about as dark as night
And I can't breathe 'round here anymore
You keep countin’ up the score
So I run like a charging bull to the matador
Your in my head, my blood's been shed, but I see you 'cross the floor
Just venomous lies in a red disguise and I can't take it anymore
So I run, I run, straight for the storm
Purple haze and a rich man's compromise
One goes for miles and the other one just dies
And I can't see round here anymore
Seems like I've been here before
So I run like a charging bull to the matador
Your in my head, my bloods been shed, but I see you 'cross the floor
Like the cannon ball flies on the fourth of July, I ain’t taking anymore
So I run, I run, straight for the storm
Your only gift is the red in the sunset in the sky
I can live on dreams, but I can never live on lies
So I run like a charging bull to the matador
Your in my head, my blood's been shed, but I see you 'cross the floor
Just venomous lies in a red disguise and I can't take it anymore
So I run, I run, straight for the storm
2. I CAN FLY
No money left for the IRS, no place to call my home
My new ex left with my old best friend, I'm heading west on out to Reno
They got a big rodeo out there, I drew a pretty good horse out there
And I'll kill my pain, a most unusual way, I nod my head, it all just goes away
Then I can fly, up in the sky, I fly on the fourth of July up high
Looking for eight-five with the roar of the crowd in the background
Sometimes they ask me why I ride, I don't have to answer why
When they see that I can fly
Pick up my pay check and I'm on my way, pick-up dies on side of the road
Hitch a ride with some hippies from Frisco Bay, we're rolling north on up to Idaho
If I'm alive when I get there, I've just enough money left for my airfare
And I'll board that bronc bound for the Milky Way, I'm takin' off on a rodeo runway
‘cause I can fly, up in the sky, I fly on the fourth of July up high
Looking for eight-five with the roar of the crowd in the background
Sometimes they ask me why I ride, I don't have to answer why
When they see that I can fly
When it's time for me to ride across the Great Divide
Man, I hope it's a long time from today
Experience has taught me, there aint no need to worry
I'll nod my then it all just goes away
Then I can fly, up in the sky, I fly on the fourth of July up high
Looking for eight-five with the roar of the crowd in the background
Sometimes they ask me why I ride, I don't have to answer why
When they see that I can fly
Can't you see that I can
It's amazing how I can
I know it sound crazy, but I can fly
3. SHE MISSES MEXICO
We got married in December, a cold winter day
Honeymoon to Cozumel, somewhere warm to celebrate
Our dreams of the most incredible week came true
I was doing everything right, right from the start
'cause she took up all the room in my heart
Kickin' around the Caribbean Ocean blue
We came back home to reality, now she just wants to go back
She talks about it every day like it's all just in the past
Like there's nothin' more to look forward to
Man, it's the only thing I'm jealous of
On second thought I think I'm makin' this up
When she says she misses Mexico, she just misses us
Holding hands, taking walks, and those late night talks
A little wine, taking our time and doing everything right
It doesn't matter where you're at, no, it's a whole lot more than that
When she says she misses Mexico, she just misses us
Now I feel like I'm learning, I'm getting smarter everyday
'cause I can tell just how I'm doing, I use her words as a gauge
When she says she wants to go back to Cozumel
Man, I should've took her to Hong Kong
On second thought I think I got it all wrong
When she says she misses Mexico, she just misses us
Holding hands, taking walks, and those late night talks
A little wine, taking our time and doing everything right
It doesn't matter where you're at, no, it's a whole lot more than that
When she says she misses Mexico, she just misses us
I wish she wouldn't keep saying that, now wait a minute, think I'm taking that back
'cause it keeps on getting better everyday
When the trials of life start kickin' in, I'll admit it's hard not to think about where we've been
When she says she misses Mexico, she just misses us
You could be anywhere, ‘cause it’s all about the love that you share
When she says she misses Mexico, she just misses us
Yeah, when she says she misses Mexico, man, she just misses us
4. ABOVE THE TIMBERLINE
The city offers you convenience
This ol' mountain offers you no lenience
But it's the life I choose to lead
Peace of mind's what I receive
I make my home above the timberline
In my saddlebags there's a bottle of red wine
On my trusty steed I've got everything I need
Up here on the great divide
I went to college searching for my way
Textbooks for rodeos seemed a pretty even trade
Well I guess fate can handle each and every day
I wouldn't have it any other way, now
I make my home above the timberline
In my saddle bags who knows what you'll find
On my trusty steed I've got everything I need
Up here on the great divide
There's bighorn sheep
Look, there's an eagle flying down there
We got fish to eat and up here there ain’t no bears
It's the place that I reside
Up above the timberline
Fates in charge of everyday
I wouldn't have it any other way
5. BAD HAY
Just another day, same load of hay
No body’s buying what I’m selling
Can’t blame ‘em, damn rain
Can’t stand the lies I’ve been tellin’
Further down the road she’ll be waiting on me to beg her no to go
With this heavy truck load of hay I keep it slow while I try to find a way to say
Go on, hear the words that I say
Go on, cause you know I'm haulin' bad hay
So hold on to the words that I say
When I say you don't need me, you're better off alone
Come on, hear the words that I say
So long, cause you know I'm haulin' bad hay
So hold on to the words that I say
When I say I love you darlin' but I'll probably do you wrong, go on
A field needs the sun and rain nearly everyday
To make hay on the land
But then the same damn rain
Will make the harvest go bad
It’s been raining down on me since a long time ago
And it’s a high price to pay for a truck load of rotten hay, I’d better tell her don’t stay
(CHORUS)
A raindrop can’t be dry and a sunray can’t be cold
And I can’t be what I’m not, so you’d better go
(CHORUS)
6. HEYDAY
I put forty hours in this week and man it’s only Wednesday
I’ve been cussing this damn heat all day long, there’s got to be another way
So I pick up my guitar and I write song
Everyone can hear it and sing along
Hey, hey, it’s a heyday
Hey, hey, yeah, makin’ my own payday
My boss is such a jerk I swear he’s never been outside
And I’ve just been his ‘yes sir’ man and I’m running out of time
Everything about this is all wrong
It’s time to live some dreams before they’re gone
Hey, hey, it’s a heyday
Hey, hey, yeah, makin’ my own payday
I’ve been thirty trips around the sun
I’m workin’ on thirty one
I’m done throwin’ my whole life away
Gonna have some fun before it’s gone, hey, hey
Sittin’ here it’s all so clear as I’m going down this road
‘cause I’ll be there ‘round eight o’clock, in time for my next show
My smile’s from ear to ear where it belongs
Everybody’s dancin’ and singin’ along
Hey, hey, it’s a heyday
Hey, hey, yeah, makin’ my own payday
Hey, hey, it’s a heyday
Hey, hey, yeah, makin’ my own payday
7. WHAT A WAY TO GO
I passed up good water and I don't know why
So I learned what I already knew
On a shortcut to Paradise through White Rock Mountain
I wish you could've seen it too
The sky was bright fiery red with The Grand silhouette
Like nothin' that I'd ever known
At 12,000 feet on Lost Eagle Peak
What a way to go
You climb up so high 'till you can't remember any
Of your troubles or your trials or your fears
Then just one little oversight can cost you your life
You know it's just the way it goes up here
The sky was bright fiery red with The Grand silhouette
Like nothin' that I'd ever known
At 12,000 feet on Lost Eagle Peak
What a way to go
Sometimes the view is so beautiful
That it wasn't meant for human eyes to see
Now I can never go back, at least I got to see that
You know it all was worth it to me
The sky was bright fiery red with The Grand silhouette
Like nothin' that I'd ever known
At 12,000 feet on Lost Eagle Peak
What a way to go
I died at 12,000 feet on Lost Eagle Peak
But what a way to go
8. I'M FLATTERED
You say it's a matter of fact
Your reliable source told you all that
Well some is true and some just ain’t
But I think that's the way that legends are made
And I'm Flattered, it's the thought that matters
All that time and energy all day long just thinkin' 'bout me
Not that it matters but I'm flattered
Even people I don't know, they’re all tuned in to my reality show
Well I'm like a superstar smashing up my guitar
If I get drunk or I get around, that's for you to know and for me to find out
Like when trashed my truck in town, then I was gone 'fore anyone found out
Then I woke up at Stockman's Bar after I got stoned in a stolen car
While I was drunk and on payroll with a sexy red head nobody knows
To me it all seems so insane, I'm just happy to entertain
I'm Flattered, it's the thought that matters
All that time and energy all day long just thinkin' 'bout me
Not that it matters but I'm flattered
Even people I don't know, they’re all tuned in to my reality show
Well I feel real bad and you know it's true, ‘cause I haven't spent a minute thinkin' 'bout you
And how you never make mistakes, you're so perfect in every way
Though you've been busy runnin' down my name, to me it ain’t more than a little fame
When rumors fly and it starts to hurt, I'll be right there selling my t-shirts
I'm Flattered, it's the thought that matters
All that time and energy all day long just thinkin' 'bout me
Not that it matters but I'm flattered
Even people I don't know, they’re all tuned in to my reality show
Yeah, even people I don't know
They're all tuned in to my reality show
9. GLAD I TOOK THIS RIDE
I look out across the canyon
I wonder what I'm gonna see today
I wonder how I'll cross that river
Out here there ain’t no price to high to pay
I don't care about tomorrow
I don't care about yesterday
I don't give a damn about things I can't change
I'm glad I took this ride today
I turn my horse toward the water
It's runnin' pretty high this time of year
But I can't keep this smile from off my face
Losing it is my only fear
I don't care about the money
I don't care about who know my name
I don't give a damn about things I can't change
I'm glad I took this ride today
To smell the flowers in the evening breeze
Out steps a bull elk from inside the trees
I stop and wonder what he thinks of me, I really do
I don't care about tomorrow
I don't care about yesterday
I don't give a damn about things I can't change
I'm glad I took this ride today
I'm so glad I took this ride today
10. RIDIN' WILD PONIES
I got my Cadillac packed, she's loaded and ready
going to take her down the road to the rodeo
With a new tank of fuel and a cool Mountain Dew
I'm going to do just what I want to do
We'll be ridin' wild ponies and chasin' pretty girls
Shooting for the title the champion of the world
We'll just show up take the money and run
Even if I don't win I'll still have fun
Just ridin' wild ponies and chasin' pretty girls
Driving all around the world
Granddaddy said I need find a girl and settle down
It's the secret to a happy life
Now I'm feeling pretty good guess he must have been right
I just found my one and only for the night
Well, Bucky's on the phone and Arlen's heading home
Me I just travel where ever I roam
I just show up take the money and run
Sometimes I don't win but I still have fun
Just ridin' wild ponies and chasin' pretty girls
Drivin' all around the world
I got my Cadillac packed she's loaded and ready
going to take her down the road to the rodeo
With a new tank of fuel and a cool Mountain Dew
I'm going to do just what I want to do
We've been ridin' wild ponies and chasin' pretty girls
Finally won the title the champion of the world
I just show up take the money and run
Even though I always win, well I still have fun
Just ridin' wild ponies and chasin' pretty girls
Driving all around the world
Drivin’ all around the world
Another half a million miles around the world
11. SOMEBODY FAITHFUL
Almost there, another day, this ain’t workin’ out, it just ain’t workin’ out
I don’t care what they say, I’ll get this turned around, get myself turned around
I gave to her nearly all of my time, I gave every dime, but she don’t care
I gave you everything, but her side of the bed, I turn around and you’re not there
Oh, what I’d give to be faithful,
To know somebody faithful that’s for real
To be with somebody faithful
To be somebody faithful
I look ahead, you look behind, it all looks the same, nothin’ there to see but pain
I change my heart, you change your mind, there’s no one left to blame, but this cold and lonely rain
I gave to her nearly all of my time, I gave every dime, but she don’t care
You gave me everything, but my side of the bed, I turn around and you’re not there
Oh, what I’d give to be faithful,
To know somebody faithful that’s for real
To be with somebody faithful
To be somebody faithful
I see a world that is turning away
I see people getting hurt everyday
If you want to believe then you’ve got pray
Oh, what I’d give to be faithful,
To know somebody faithful that’s for real
To be with somebody faithful
To be somebody faithful
12. I'M ONLY HERE ....
I'm only here when it's raining
I'm only here when it's dark outside
I'm only here when it's raining
I'm only out when the sun subsides
Sometimes this feeling comes right over me
I know the feeling that I can't resist
I know I got the whole world at my fingertips
I'm only here when it's raining
I'm only out when the sun subsides
I'm only here when it's raining
I'm only howl when the moon is high
Sometimes this feeling comes right over me
I know the feeling that I can't resist
I know I got the whole world at my fingertips
The people I know, they'd never know
I drive down the road, I'm in control
But there's another person I know
Who lives in my soul, he won't let go
I'm only here when it's raining
I'm only out when the moon is up
I'm only here when it's raining
I'm only out when it’s all messed up
Sometimes this feeling comes right over me
I know the feeling that I can't resist
I know I got the whole world at my fingertips
I'm only here when it's raining
I'm only here when it's raining
I'm only here when it's raining
I'm right here…
