Used to be you and me, we had some understanding. Easily, we could see each other's point of view. But lately, I find we've shifted in time. Nothin' to say, just want no reins on me.
Well, I gotta get drunk and I sure do dread it. 'Cause I know just what I'm gonna do. I'll start to spend my money. Call everybody honey and wind up singing the blues.
Gimme a river and a cypress tree. A day of good weather and I will be. As happy as a little green frog in the rain. Gimme a shell cracker on the line.
NO MORE TEARS. WRITER BEEB BIRTLES. . Sleeping through the night and being happy in the day, I don't want - no more tears, thinking 'bough those sleepless nights and whether I was wrong or right, don't want - no more tears, feeling sentimental never got me nowhere, holding on to trouble left me pulling at thin air, listen to me woman when I tell you I don't want - no more tears. We could never work it out, it really broke my heart, I don't want - no more tears, every word was second-hand, delivered by the middle man, don't want his ideas, all my friends and neighbors wanted to get involved, throwing me suggestions, trying to get the problem solved, listen to me woman I tell you I don't want. Bad dreams, in the middle of the night, I can't sleep for fear of losing sight, in my heart I still feel pain, whoa, whoa, and my pride has taken second place, 'cause I've tried to see you face to face, I don't mind this waiting game, it's all the same, I think I'll be moving on with my life. I'm feeling so much different now, I've mellowed with the years, I don't want - no more tears, I only hope for you to find this happiness, this peace of mind, don't want - no more tears, every now and then you find a place on my prayers, I have no regrets for what we had and what we shared, listen to me woman, I tell you I don't want - no more tears, no more tears, no more tears, no more tears, no more tears..

Don't look so sad, I know it's over.. But life goes on, and this old world will keep on turning.. Let's just be glad we had some time to spend together..
Calling all you hippies and outlaws. Calling all you suits and ties. Calling all you prayin' Madonnas. Who've got a little wild child trapped inside. .
MY OWN WAY HOME. WRITERS GLENN SHORROCK, BRIAN CADD. . The lights in my eyes they are starting to hurt me, I no longer need them to see where to go, you're showing me signs in too many directions, I'll find my own way home ... "I've got something fantastic I know you can use," said the five and dime prophet on the ten dollar news, he's asking me to share his vision while looking down at his shoes, how can I work out what he's saying, how will I know if he's telling the truth ? The lights in my eyes they are starting to hurt me, I no longer need them to see where to go, you're showing me signs in too many directions, I'll find my own way home ... For the secret of romance turn to page 94, then take of all the boxes and add up your score, radio heartbreak can save any marriage, and that's what "AM" is for, opinions of numbers don't add up to nothing, I've already done it - I've been there before ... The lights in my eyes they are starting to hurt me, I no longer need them to see where to go, you're showing me signs in too many directions, I'll find my own way home ... Oh, no, why can't they let things be, I'm outa here - that's enough for me. Woah, the lights in my eyes they are starting to hurt me, I no longer need them to see where to go, you're showing me signs in too many directions, I'll find my own way home ... The lights in my eyes they are starting to hurt me, I no longer need them to see where to go, you're showing me signs in too many directions, I'll find my own way home ... I'll find my own way home, I'll find my own way home, leave me alone I will find my own way home (repeat).
My lady and me fought our way free from a shanty town. Parades of the blues were in every night. We slipped out of town with the morning's light. . My lady and me wanted to see if we'd settle down.

She got tiny white shorts, little pink crocks. A halter top that just won't stop. She got a half a dozen crazy friends. Type a text message in and let the fun begin.
Lost in the conversation. It was hard to say goodnight. Standing at the station, tossing it all around. Easy as the rain came down. . Both of us were used to losing.
I dreamed I was arrested. Charged with a crime. Forgot to plead innocent. 'Cause darling, you're not mine. . Oh why?. Why should it happen to me?. Well, I'm fine with it.
I'm drivin' this truck on a mountain road. I got a hot rod rig and I'm flyin' low. My eyes are filled with diesel smoke, hairpin turns ain't no joke. Diesel smoke, dangerous curves.
Late at night, things ain't right. A million thoughts, running 'round in my head. Closing the door, don't wanna hear no more. Made up my mind, everything has been said.
