Ohh yea, yes sir
Comin' on strong
Comin' on hard
But what the hell is the matter
Take it to the limit
Baby take it 'till your in it
You take my love and you scatter
Chorus:
Cause there is a low
It just doesn't matter
Oh no, it really doesn't matter
Cause there's a low
Baby what ya tryin' to do.
You know win or lose, love is a game
Now I don't think I will be the same
As sweet as it seemed
It was only a dream
You're the meanest damn woman I've ever seen.
I said,"Oh no, how will I never be the same
Oh no no no, Now that you've worked your game.
Cause, Lord, baby what ya trying to do
It's gonna catch up to you."
Now hold it a second
Hey momma, I'm a talkin' to you
Your time gonna come real soon
No baby, baby, you can't treat me like no fool
No momma, I'm not puttin' up with that
Oh yea!!!!
Well I've had my share of lovers
and I'm damn sure I had it all
If I had to count the times I've broken through
I couldn't even count 'em all
But now your telling folks you've got me
Into thinking that your the most
But if your planning on the future, honey
You ain't even close..NOOO
I've learned to take the punches
And I've bet down on my chips
I've learned to shoot
Straight little darlin'
Straight from the hip
So baby save yourself some trouble
Putting your world in my hand
You know I'll never settle down
I'm just ain't that kind of man.
Chorus:
No more, I've been stood up, knocked down
And had my time to boast
But if your thinkin' that you got this old boy
Honey, no you ain't even close
Oh no baby
Chorus:
No more, I've been stood up, knocked down
And had my time to boast
But if your thinkin' that you got this old boy
Honey, no you ain't even close
No you ain't even close.
Oh see that light and feel the thunder, listen to it rain
You know the time
The time I wonder
If it's calling out my name
If I know anything about you baby
But this is what I've got to say
If I got to make the change with you
Then I have to be on my way.
Chorus:
No more, I've been stood up, knocked down
And had my time to boast
But if your thinkin' that you got this old boy
Hell
I said No, I've been stood up, knocked down
And had my time to boast
But if your thinkin' that you got this old boy by the hammer, honey
No you ain't even close
No you ain't even close
No No No
You ain't even close
No..........
Oh take me home, baby
Man that dixie music makes
Move your feet around
Another blast of that southern mass
in the good ole' country sound
Ain't nothing like that feel
when the band starts to play
You have something about that music down in dixie U.S.A.
Chorus:
Just give me those stars and bars
playing on the radio
A good cold beer and a rebel cheer, man I'm ready to go
That sweet sweet dixie music really gets into your soul
So Mr. DJ won't you play that southern rock and roll.
You take me out of the country, not the country out of me
New Your City's neon lights just ain't my cup of tea
I take that Orange Blossom Special
A song I know well
A red neck down in Georgia
I love those southern bells.
Chorus:
Just give me those stars and bars
playing on the radio
A good cold beer and a rebel cheer, man I'm ready to go
That sweet sweet dixie music really gets into your soul
So Mr. DJ won't you play that southern rock and roll.
Awww here's a little bit
Ohhh, man that dixie music makes
Move your feet around
Ain't nothing like that feelin' when the band is playin' it down
It's a great big world around me
This is where I stay
Something abouth that livin' down in dixie U.S.A.
Chorus:
Just give me those stars and bars
playing on the radio
A good cold beer and a rebel cheer, man I'm ready to go
That sweet sweet dixie music really gets into your soul
So Mr. DJ won't you play that southern rock and roll.
I'll take that sweet sweet dixie music
Gets into my soul
So Mr. DJ won't you play some southern rock and roll.
A king without a sword
A land without a king
The truth without a voice
One song left to sing
One song to sing
A wise man told me there's something you should know
The way you judge a man is to look into his soul
And you'll soon see everything.
A voice from the past cried "Give peace a chance."
He paid our price now he's free at last
And imagine we called him a dreamer.
How many times must good men die?
How many tears will the children cry?
Till we suffer no more sadness
Stop the madness,
Oh Stop the madness.
If ashes are ashes and dust is dust
And our journey's end and then we turn to rust
To the sands of the shore
White doves then fly
Peace to all
Tell me why the peacemakers fall
Must we bury anymore
A hush in the crowd as the horse rode by
Black lace veil hid the tears from her eyes
And we all wept in silence
How many times must good men die?
How many times will the children cry?
Till we suffer no more sadness
Oh stop the madness
Oh stop all the madness.
How many times have I waited for you
Hoping that you'll just call
And how many times have I wanted to hear
Words you don't say at all.
You know I try so hard
But I can't get through
I've got so much for you.
Chorus:
When tell me what's it gonna take to make you
What's it gonna take
My heart is in your hand
I've done all that I can
How long must I wait?
Well, what's it gonna take to make you love me.
So many nights I think about you
Waiting for love to call
And so many dreams that will never come true
They all have no chance at all
But if you let me in
I can challange you
Oh what I have for you.
Chorus:
When tell me what's it gonna take to make you
What's it gonna take
My heart is in your hand
I've done all that I can
How long must I wait?
Well, tell me what's it gonna take to make you,
What's it gonna take
My heart is in your hand
I've done all that I can
How long will I wait?
Well, what's it gonna take
Well, what's it gonna take
Well, what's it gonna take
to make you love me.
I've never been wrong about feelin' so right
Want you love me too
I've waited so long if just for a night
Baby love me too
And if you let me in
I can challange you
Just what i have for you.
Chorus:
When tell me what's it gonna take to make you
What's it gonna take
Oh, my heart is in your hand
I've done all that I can
How long must I wait?
Baby, tell me what's it gonna take
Well, tell me what's it gonna take to make you,
What's it gonna take
My heart is in your hand
I've done all that I can
How long will I wait?
Baby, what's it gonna take
Baby, what's it gonna take
Baby, what's it gonna take
to make you love me.
She walked in the bar room,
Not a day over 22,
Heads turned,
Eyes burned,
Temperatures were rising too.
And the looser and the stranger and the man behind the bar
All agreed she had potential
And that guidance was not far
Then the stranger by the station where the waitress pays her dues
Was left lookin' for a lover
Just someone else to use
It's not a long way from the dance floor to the dark of the parking lot
It's kinda like love but it's not.
Chorus:
Kinda like love
So young and tender
Kinda like the moves you used to make but you don't remember
Kinda like being 16 and hot
When you gave it everything you got
Kinda like love but it's not.
Now the stranger
He walked over just to say, "How do you do"
He said something about Texas
But she knew what he was getting too
They ordered mor tequilla while the man behind the bar
Was talking about the job last year in a town that was not far away
Then I walked out of the bar room
Couldn't even turn around
I guess I know what they were going to do
I knew what was going down
It's not a long way from the dance floor to the dark of the parking lot
It's kinda like love but it's not.
Chorus:
Kinda like love
So young and tender
Kinda like the moves you used to make but you don't remember
Kinda like being 16 and hot
When you gave it everything you got
Kinda like love but it's not.
Kinda like being 16 and hot
When you gave it everything you got
Kinda like love but it's not
Oohhh, no it's not, it's not.
Yah
I can't seem to make it
No matter how hard I try
Bad times seem to find me
Good fortunes pass me by.
It's all just one big gamble
Trouble is my name
I got this feelin' inside me
My looks just gotta change.
I don't look for many battles
I play by my own rules
So don't you try and stop me
'Cause I ain't no ones' fool.
Just keep right on movin'
You know I mean what I say
So all you slick backs talk fast
You'd better get outta my way.
Chorus:
Our backs against the wall
Are we headed for a fall
No time to think at all
Down to the wall just like while it's hot
when you got it all.Our backs against the wall
No time to think at all
Did you want to run
while you are under the gun.
It's all just one big gamble
Trouble is my name
But I just keep on movin'
God knows I'm not to blame.
Chorus:
Our backs against the wall
Are we headed for a fall
No time to think at all
Down to the wall just like while it's hot
when you got it all.Our backs against the wall
No time to think at all
Did you want to run
while you are under the gun.
I never run from my battles
I play by my own rules
So don't you try and stop me
'Cause I ain't no ones' fool.
Chorus:
Our backs against the wall
Are we headed for a fall
No time to think at all
Down to the wall just like while it's hot
when you got it all.Our backs against the wall
No time to think at all
Did you want to run
while you are under the gun.
I've got this feelin' inside me babe
Got my eyes on you
Just a matter of time
'Till I make up my mind
Before the night is through.
Chorus:
I'm a hunter
I'm a stalker
I'm a creeper round every corner
I'm a seeker
Your love is all I need
Ain't no use in runnin' now
'Cause I get what I always go after
I'm on the prowl.
Aint nothing in the whole world, honey
I wouldnt do it for you
Just one kiss from your sweet lips
Enough to get me through
I've been searchin everywhere
No one else will do
You're gonna be mine, baby, I ain't lyin
Got my sights on you
Chorus:
I'm a hunter
Oooohhhh I'm a stalker
I'm a creeper round every corner
I'm a seeker
Your love is all I need
Ain't no use in runnin' now
'Cause I get what I always get what I go after
I'm on the prowl.
Got this feelin' inside me baby
Got my eyes on you
Just a matter of time
'Till I make you mine
Before the night is through
I've been searchin' everywhere
But no one else will do
You're gonna be mine, baby
I ain't lyin'
I've got my sights on you
Chorus:
I'm a hunter
Oooohhhh I'm a stalker
I'm a creeper round every corner
I'm a seeker
Your love is all I need
Ain't no use in runnin' now
'Cause I get what I always get what I go after
I'm on the prowl.
