Alabama

(Randy Owen/Teddy Gentry/Ronnie Rogers)

Is the magic still there whenever I hold you
Do these lips of mine send chills down your spine
Like they used to
Or is it slipping away
Baby come out and say
I'm asking because I care
I just need to know is the magic still there

Oh, I still recall our first time together
Oh, we kissed and we touched
We couldn't get enough of each other
And when we said goonight
Beneath that old porch light
It left us wanting more
But I'm wondering now if time has somehow
Changed what we felt before

Is the magic still there whenever I hold you
Do these lips of mine send chills down your spine
Like they used to
Or is it slipping away
Baby come out and say
I'm asking because I care
I just need to know is the magic still there

Am I still the one that you daydream of
When we turn out the light
Is there fire in the night when we make love
Don't want to take you for granted
So baby I'm askin' only because I care
I just want to know

Is the magic still there whenever I hold you
Do these lips of mine send chills down your spine
Like they used to
Or is it slipping away
Baby come out and say
I'm asking because I care
I just need to know is the magic still there

Is the magic still there
Is the magic still there...

He rattles his glass, she jumps up fast
And pours him a glass of tea
Deep in her heart she believes
That's the way it should be
Yeah, and I've seen my dad get fightin' mad
Over one little four-letter word
He'll tell you fast you don't talk like that around her

We may not see it the way they see it
We may not do it the way they do it
But she lives here life for him
And he'd gladly die for her
And even in this modern age, it works

Though he's been down in his back
He still jumps out of that sack
Ev'ry mornin' at 5 a.m. Having her home
With the kids has been worth it to him
Yeah, and she takes pride in bein' his wife
And making their house a home
And sometimes she wishes the world
Would just leave them alone

We may not see it the way they see it
We may not do it the way they do it
But she lives here life for him
And he'd gladly die for her
And even in this modern age, it works

If the good Lord's willin' there will come a day
When our children will say

We may not see it the way they see it
We may not do it the way they do it
But she lives here life for him
And he'd gladly die for her
And even in this modern age, it works

Even in this modern age, it works...

If you want a brand new shiny car, say I
If you're sick of songs about broken hearts, say I
If you spent some nights parkin' at the noon
If you don't like being told what to do

Say I (I)
I gotta have something to hang my dreams upon
Say I (I)
I'm gonna keep rockin' until I'm dead and gone

If you turn up the radio too loud, say I
If you make the tilt-a-whirl spin round, say I
If you love a lil' more to spend the cash
But you hate takin' out the Tuesday trash

Say I (I)
I gotta have something to hang my dreams upon
Say I (I)
I'm gonna keep rockin' until I'm dead and gone

Worry ain't worth half the time it takes
I don't wanna think about a thing

Say I (I)
Say I (I)

If you hate when a friend goes Hollywood, say I
Sometimes feel like gettin' nothin' no good, say I
If you think you're wrong but you know you're right
You won't backdown without a fight

Say I (I)
I gotta have something to hang my dreams upon
Say I (I)
I'm gonna keep rockin' until I'm dead and gone

Oh, say I (I)
I gotta have something to hang my dreams upon
Say I (I)
I'm gonna keep rockin' until I'm dead and gone

Say I (I, I)

Well, I've been lucky but to travel this great land
From the mountains of Montana to Sarasota sands
Oh, what I life living my dream
I can say these eyes have seen so many thing.
The moon over Miami, sunset in Frisco Bay
It's all been so beautiful but still I'd have to say.

Nothing comes close to the beauty of your love
Nothing comes close your a site I can't describe
Nothing comes close when you're lyin' by my side
Nothing comes close, oh no
Baby, I've been there, nothing comes close.

I could search forever and never stop
Walk every valley and climb each mountain top
Sail every ocean till the end of my day
But when it'll be over still believe I'd say.

Nothing comes close to the beauty of your love
Nothing comes close your a site I can't describe
Nothing comes close when you're lyin' by my side
Nothing comes close.

Nothing comes close to the beauty of your love
Nothing comes close your a site I can't describe
Nothing comes close when you're lyin' by my side
Nothing comes close, oh no
Baby, I've been there nothing comes close, oh no...

We're standing like kids on a mid way,
Two hearts like tumbling dice,
We've lost control of the way we feel.

Old heart aches driving us crazy,
Is it really different this time?
We've come to far not to take a chance,
And spin the wheel!

Lay our hearts on the line,
Risk it all one more time,
Let it all ride on the way we feel

This could be another broken heart,
Or is it where true love starts?
Only one way to find out if this thing is real,
Just spin the wheel!

Round and round our dreams are rollin'
Will they land on love or good-bye?
My hearts on you head over heels

All I know is when I told you
Love is worth any chance we take
Baby lets let the chips fall where they may
Lets spin the wheel!

Lay our hearts on the line,
Risk it all one more time,
Let it all ride on the way we feel

This could be another broken heart,
Maybe this is where true love starts?
Only one way to find out if this thing is real,
Just spin the wheel!

Love is worth any chance we take
Baby lets spin the wheel!

Lay our hearts on the line (on the line)
Risk it all one more time (one more time)
Let it all ride on the way we feel

This could be another broken heart
Or maybe this is where true love starts
Only one way to find out if this thing is real
Spin the wheel.

Play are hearts on the line
Risk it all one more time
Let it all ride on the way we feel
And spin the wheel

Keep on spinnin? the wheel baby
Round and round it goes
Spinnin? the wheel
Spin the wheel
Round and round it goes
And spin the wheel
Spin the wheel

Well I've spent more money than I've made
And I've grown more whiskers than I've shaved
I've worked harder getting out of work
But I've loved a lot more than I've hurt

I've spilled more whiskey than I've drank
I drove up more gas than was in my tank
I've lost a lot more than my shirt
But I've loved a lot more than I've hurt

Oh I hurt a little now and then
But when you're broke you learn to bend
The bottom line for what its worth
I've loved a lot more than I've hurt

Well I walk a lot more than I ride
And I show a lot more than I hide
I'm sometimes more trouble than I'm worth
But I've loved a lot more than I've hurt

Oh I hurt a little now and then
But when you're broke you learn to bend
The bottom line for what it's worth
I've loved a lot more than I've hurt

Yea the bottom line for what it's worth
I've loved a lot more than I've hurt

My nights belong to the sandman
'Cause I sure like a dream
My morning's belong to the wild-woods
'Cause I like to hear the birds sing
My soul belongs to heaven
My feet belong to my shoes
Oh, but baby my love belongs to you

My thoughts belong on tomorrow
'Cause today is all but gone
My memories belong on yesterday
'Cause I like to recall
My wishes belong upon a star
'Cause I believe they come true
But baby my love belongs to you

My love belongs to you
You and only you
These words are my heart talking
Believe me girl they're true

Oh, my wishes belong upon a star
'Cause I believe they come true
Oh, but my baby you know my love belongs to you
But baby my love belongs to you!...

She ain't your ordinary
She ain't your ordinary girl

She don't love carelessly that's what I've always heard
'Can't use the usual lines she measures every word
No empty promises proof is what it takes to win her heart
The truth and nothing less,
Simple things that set her far apart
Save your diamonds and your furs
She's not your ordinary girl

She ain't your ordinary, no she's not
She ain't your ordinary girl
She ain't your ordinary, oh no
She ain't your ordinary girl

No midnight alibis, no foolish games for her
And if you cross the line you'll get what you deserve
But when you see her smile
Nothing seems to matter anymore
And in a little while you'll feel like you've never felt before
Like no other in the world, she's not your ordinary girl

She ain't your ordinary, no she's not
She ain't your ordinary girl
She ain't your ordinary, oh no
She ain't your ordinary girl

She ain't your ordinary
She ain't your ordinary girl

She ain't your ordinary
She ain't your ordinary girl

Save your diamonds and your furs,
She ain't your ordinary girl

She ain't your ordinary
She ain't your ordinary girl

She ain't your ordinary
She ain't your ordinary girl

She ain't your ordinary
She ain't your ordinary girl...

Well this ain't
No Sunday drive
Got the tach
Redlined
Throttle opened wide

(Gentlemen start your engines)

Got all new
Diagnostic-tuned
Polished, shined
Lookin' like new
This car will blow
Your mind
And your door
Right off

Rotated tires
Balanced, aligned
Highest octane
Money can buy
She looks like
She's flyin' when
She's sittin' at a stop

Your grocery-getting'
Garbage
Is nothing
Next to mine

This ain't
Your Sunday drive
Got the tach
Redlined
Throttle opened wide

Gonna kill a lot of bugs,
Pass a lot of poles
Burn a little rubber
Down a blacktop road

Better be able
To bury that needle your pinkslip's
on the line

This ain't no
Sunday drive

Ole mark, set,
Ready,fly
Be waitin'
At the finish

Hand your keys tol my baby
And don't ask
For a ride
This ain't no
Sunday drive
(Naw it ain't, son!)

Chorus
This ain't
Your Sunday drive
Got the tach
Redlined
Throttle opened wide

Gonna kill a lot of bugs,
Pass a lot of poles
Burn a little rubber
Down a blacktop road

Better be able
To bury that needle
your pinkslip's on the line

This ain't no
Sunday drive

This ain't no
Sunday drive

This ain't no

Well it's concrete and asphalt
Drivin' into work every day
This livin' can't be healthy
But the Lord knows I got bills to pay
And there's others here just like me
They got families to feed

One more time around (time around)
On the job is where I'll be found
One more time around (time around)
Earn my pay and hear that whistle sound

Well thunder and lighting
It don't matter, nothin' stops the clock
The radios are blastin'
Mine is playin' country some play rock
The rhythm and blues of the workplace
We take pride in everything we make

One more time around (time around)
On the job is where I'll be found
One more time around (time around)
Earn my pay and hear that whistle sound

Five o'clock is comin'
We're all racin' down the same track
Life is a circle
Sometimes we meet ourselves comin' back

Well one more time around (time around)
On the job is where I'll be found
One more time around (time around)
Earn my pay and hear that whistle sound

One more time around (time around)
Time around, time around
Time around, time around
Time around
Time around...

Hey, hey baby
I wanna know, if you'll be my girl
Hey, hey baby
I wanna know, if you'll be my girl

When I saw you walking down the street
I said that's the kind of girl I'd like to meet
She's so pretty Lord she's fine
I'm gonna make her mine all mine
Hey, hey baby
I wanna know, if you'll be my girl

When you turned and walked away
That's when I want to say, now
Come on baby give me a whirl
I wanna know, if you'll be my girl
Hey hey baby
I wanna know, if you'll be my girl

When you turned and walked away
That's when I wanna say
Come on baby give me a whirl
I wanna know, if you'll be my girl
Hey, hey baby
I wanna know, if you'll be my girl
Hey, hey baby
I wanna know, if you'll be my girl
Hey, hey, hey, hey baby
I wanna know, if you'll be my girl...

(Jeff Jones)

Calling, calling all angels
Oh I'm calling, calling all angels

The night was still, the moon was bright
When he saw a distant light
So he started walkin' till he found
A church outside of town
And he stumbled in and closed the door
Said why I'm here, I'm not sure
It's my baby that I'm lookin' for
Can't she see I'm down on my knees

I've been calling, calling all angels
Bring my baby back
Oh, you must know where she's at
Tell me what to do
I know that she's one of you
I'm down on my knees, tell her please
That I love her so

Tell me preacher, man to man
Will you do all that you can
I've done wrong, this I know
And I really hurt her so
It's a lonely world I'm livin' in
An ocean of tears I been cryin'
In this greatest hour of need
What can be done for a fool like me

Oh, I'm calling, calling all angels
Bring my baby back
Oh, you must know where she's at
Yes I've been a fool
And I know that she's one of you
Now do this for me, tell her please

And if she's lonely
I'll make her understand
That these arms can carry
Both of us back to heaven again

Yes I've been a fool
And I know that she's one of you
Do this for me
Tell her please

Calling, calling all angels
Hear me calling, calling all angels
Oh, I'm calling, calling all angels
Hear me calling, calling all angels
Oh, I'm calling, calling all angels...

I was taught to believe, and never to doubt
The man up above, knows what he's talking about.
So when I heard that voice, so loud and clear,
Speak to my heart I knew that she must be near.

The maker said take her and love her forever
Take care of her for life
And treat her right

I never was the one for listening very well
I walked my own way and felt what I felt
Further out of touch with the master plan
she was like a flight to the promised land

And
The maker said take her and love her forever
Take care of her for life
Never forsake her, don't be a heartbreaker
The maker said take her and treat her right.
Just treat her right

He placed an angel in the palm of my hands
And for once of my life I obeyed his comands

I'll take her and lover her forever
Take care of her for life
Never forsake her, don't be a heartbreaker
The maker said take her and treat her right.
Just treat her right.
Just treat her right.

The maker said take her and love her forever;
Take care of her for life.
Never forsake her, don't be no heartbreaker
The maker said take her and treat her right.
And treat her right

For life

You've got me achin'
More than I should
My heart is breakin'
Oh, don't it feel good
'Cause I know for certain
We're magic in love
You've got me hurtin'
'Cause I can't get enough

I just couldn't say no
Even though I should
Even if I did
Wonder if you could
I just couldn't say no, no
When your eyes say yes, yes
I just can't say no
I've tried my best

The way that you tease me
Makes me want you more
You purr like a kitten
But I hear you roar
Your body language
Is talkin' to me
Right here in the darkness
It's so plain to see

I just couldn't say no
Even though I should
Even if I did
Wonder if you could
I just couldn't say no, no
When your eyes say yes, yes
I just can't say no
I've tried my best

I just couldn't say no

I just couldn't say no, no
When your eyes say yes, yes
I just can't say no
I've tried my best

I just can't say no
I've tried my best

I just couldn't say no...

(Billy Kirsch)

Why do you ask
Of course I'm alright
I guess I wasn't thinking
I'd run into you tonight
Do I seem surprised
I guess you caught me off guard
Yes I'm really doing fine
No it hasn't been that hard

How 'bout you
Getting on with your life
There's so much to tell you
That I won't even try
My, its good to see you
How long has it been
I must admit I think about you
Every now and then

Like when I open my eyes
When I lay down at night
Every moment ever since
The day you said goodbye
But you'll never know
'Cause I keep it inside
How am I doing without you
Of course I'm alright

Well to tell you the truth
I guess I have felt better
God just look at you,wow
You make it look so easy
I can see it on yout face
Everything we used to be
Is gone without a trace

If you wanna know
Right now I'm sinking fast
Girl you always could see
Right behind this mask
But I won't give it away
Gonna keep it inside
How am I doing without you
Of course I'm alright

If you don't want to know the truth
Of course I'm alright...

(Ronald A. White/William Robinson, Jr.)

I've got sunshine
On a cloudy day
And when its cold outside girl
I've got the month of May
Oh, I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way
My girl, (my girl my girl) talkin' 'bout my girl
My girl

I've got so much honey
The bees envy me
I've got a sweeter song baby
Than the birds in the trees
Well, I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way
My girl, (my girl my girl) talkin' 'bout my girl
My girl oooaaa

Hey, hey, hey,
Hey, hey, hey

I don't need no money
Fortune or fame
I've got all the riches baby
One man can claim
Well, I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way
My girl (my girl my girl) talkin' bout my girl
My girl talkin' 'bout my girl
On a cloudy day with my girl
I've even got the month of May with my girl
Talkin' 'bout, talkin' 'bout my girl
Talkin' 'bout my girl...

(Randy Owen/Teddy Gentry)

She's still got those pretty eyes
Like she did in school
The first time that she looked at me
My heart went ka-boom
Today I saw that look again
On sale in summer square
She looked so good in what she wore
Somehow it don't seem fair

She's got that look in her eyes
Just like she's always had
She's got that smile on her lips
That always drives me mad
When she looks at me
The way I feel comes as no surprise
I love that look
When she's got that look in her eyes

Just today she looked at me
And I felt like a kid
Even though I'm grown up now
The puzzle seems to fit
I may never have her
But I'll still love her still
Oh I may never hold her
In my mind I always will

She's got that look in her eyes
Just like she's always had
She's got that smile on her lips
That always drives me mad
When she looks at me
The way I feel comes as no surprise
I love that look
When she's got that look in her eyes

When she looks at me
The way I feel comes as no surprise
I love that look
When she's got that look in her eyes...

Sad Lookin' Moon: Alabama

I thought that you could fly
I thought that you had wings
I guess that I believed
You'd never say goodbye
But my world stopped turnin' 'round
The stars turned upside down
It knocked me to the ground on my knees

Now there's a sad lookin' moon
Shinin' down on me
There's a sad lookin' sky
As far as I can see
I always believed
And I thought the stars could see
But there's a sad lookin' moon
Shinin' down on me

I shared with you my dreams
I gave you everything
I opened up my heart
And I gave you my ring
Well I spent days and nights
Just thinkin' about the time
When you would be mine all my life

Now there's a sad lookin' moon
Shinin' down on me
There's a sad lookin' sky
As far as I can see
I always believed
And I thought the stars could see
But there's a sad lookin' moon
Shinin' down on me

There's a sad lookin' moon
A sad lookin' moon
There's a sad lookin' moon
Shinin' down on me

Well the Magic Attic's where the music rolls..
And the Army-Navy's got ol' Jackie Soul.
Down on Peaches Corner there are Good Ol' Boys..
And Mother Fletchers makin' lots of noise.
They're Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard..
Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard.

Well the Tams are playin' at the Port-O-Call..
And the Drifters underneath the Boardwalk.
At the Spanish Galleon and Ol' Fat Jacks..
Jukebox playin' and the place is packed.
You bet they're Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard..
You know they're Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard.

Got the top down and the traffic's slow..
Sun Fun Week and, we all go..
Where the girls are sunnin' and are lookin' good..
Well I never met 'em but I wish I could..
And we'd go Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard.
We'd go Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard.

Well the Embers singin' up on Ocean Drive..
And the Castaways are gettin' loud tonight.
At the Electric Circus they all getin' down..
And the Carousel's spinnin' round and 'round.
You see them Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard.
I see 'em Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard.

Well I'm hangin out down at Sloppy Joes..
They may doze but they never close.
And the Bama Boys at the Bowery..
They can't dance but they play for free.
But they like Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard..
They know Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard..
They wrote Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard..
Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard.
Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard.
Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard.
Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard.
Dancin', Shaggin' on the boulevard.
