Here she comes two hours late
But that girl's always worth the wait yeah and I love it
She's got a tie-died shirt on wrong side out
She makes left of center seem right somehow aw and I love it

She's got a way of being nonchalant
Kinda quirky everything I'm not

She's so unordinary
So unpredictable it's scary
And I think I got more than what I bargined for
But I keep coming back for more of it
Cause I love it

She's got two tattoos, one's on her back
And I ain't saying where the other one's at, but I love it
She don't own a dress, but she's a beauty queen
Takes glamour shots in cutoff jeans and I love it
But if there's one thing that I love the most
It's how she does exactly what I think she won't

She's so unordinary
So unpredictable it's scary
And I think I got more than what I bargined for
Oh but I keep coming back for more of it
Aw cause I love it

She's so unordinary
So unpredictable it's
Oh and I think I got more than what I bargined for
But I keep coming back for more of it
Yeah and I love it

Yeah I love it

He had plastic bags wrapped round his shoes.
He was covered with the evening news.
Had a pair of old wool socks on his hands.

The bank sign was flashing five below,
It was freezing rain an' spittin' snow.
He was curled up behind some garbage cans.
I was afraid that he was dead.
I gave him a gentle shake.
When he opened up his eyes
I said, "Old man are you ok?"

He said, "I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree,
I was runin' from some honey bees.
Drip dryin' in the summer breeze,
After jumpin' into Calico creek.
I was walkin' down an old dirt road,
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed.
Man I wish you'd just left me alone,
'Cause I was almost home."

Then he said, "I's just comin' 'round the barn
Bout the time you grabbed my arm,
When I heard Momma holler 'son hurry up.'
I was close enough for my own nose
To smell fresh cobbler on the stove
And I saw daddy loadin' up the truck
Cane poles on the tailgate
Bobbers blowin' in the wind
Since July of '55
That's as close as I've been."

"Yeah, I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree.
I was runin' from some honey bees.
Drip dryin' in the summer breeze,
After jumpin' into Calico creek.
I was walkin' down an old dirt road,
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed.
Man I wish you'd just left me alone,
I was almost home."

I said, "Old man you're gonna freeze to death.
Let me drive you to the mission."
He said, "Boy if you'd left me alone
Right now I'd be fishin'"

"I just climbed out of a cottonwood tree.
I was runin' from some honey bees.
Drip dryin' in the summer breeze,
After jumpin' into Calico creek.
I was walkin' down an old dirt road,
Past a field of hay that had just been mowed.
Man I wish you'd just left me alone
'Cause I was almost home."

(Almost Home)

"Man I wish you'd just left me alone, I was almost home."

Found an old box in the bottom of the closet
'Neath a bowling ball bag full of magazines
Had a school sweater with a ring in the pocket
From my first cigar - man did I turn green
Hey honey come look at what I just found
This old picture of us when the carnival came to town

I was superman, tarzan
Thought I was a star in a rock n roll band
You were Lois Lane, Lady Jane
I wasn't very good
But you were the biggest fan of the man
That your momma warned you not to trust
Now Baby look at us

There's a bracelet I made you at your homecoming party
Bought a six-pack of Bud just to get tabs
Took you home and you wore it proudly
But i got in big trouble when you showed your dad
Here's a speaker from the Dickson Drive-In show
What movie was playing we never did know

I was Superman, Tarzan
Thought I was a star in a rock n roll band
you were Lois Lane, Lady Jane
I wasn't very good
But you were the biggest fan of the man
That your momma warned you not to trust
And baby look at us

You were the biggest fan of the man
That your momma warned you not to trust
and baby look at us

I was Superman, Tarzan
You were Lois Lane, Lady Jane
Yeah and baby look at us
Look at us...

8 years old wearing his daddy's hardhat
he grabbed the water hose said he saw the fireman do it like that
His wagon was his ladder truck he pulled it around
And at the top of his lungs he'd make a fire engine sound

In the dream he's more than just a hero
more than anything he ever wanted to be
In the dream there's a world that lasts forever
and life is so much better than it seems
close your eyes you can be anything
In the dream

Fumbling through the attic she found her mother's old wedding dress
she said someday she'd wear it and wouldn't mama be impressed
she can just about imagine what everyone will say
when her knight in shining armor comes to carry her away

In the dream she's a pretty as a picture
More than anything she ever wanted to be
In the dream there's a world that lasts forever
and life is so much better than it seems
close your eyes you can be anything
in the dream

On the one side of the isle
sits all her family
On the other side are all his friends
from engine 53

when she looks at him I wonder if he knows
to her he's still the boy she met 20 years ago
In the dream he's more than just a hero
she's pretty as a picture like they wanted to be

In the dream there's a world that lasts forever
and life is so much better than it seems
close your eyes you can be anything
close your eyes you can be anything
In the dream

Wally Walker spent his last twenty dollars
On lottery tickets at the corner store
He came in without any milk and bread
Well his wife Heather was madder than ever
Said I can't believe you did that you know we're poor
Them tickets just dig us a little deeper
In the whole
He said, you never known

Old Sawmill Kenny kissed his Jenny
Said I'll see you tonight around supper time
He pulled that old Dodge truck out on the road
Well he went around a curve and Kenny had to swerve
To miss a little girl riding a bike
He gave his life to save her
As his maker said it's time to go

You never know what's around the bend
Could be a new beginning
Or it could be the end
You can dream, plan, scream, wish, pray and hope
But you never know

That Pentacost preacher was a part time teacher
At the Mississippi Missionary Bible School
Oh silver tongue Sara was a holy terror
She took him somewhere he didn't want to go
Said he was a sinner and later that winter it showed

You never know what's around the bend
Could be a new beginning
Or it could be the end
You can dream, plan, scream, wish, pray and hope
But you never know

You never know what's around the bend
Could be a new beginning
Or it could be the end
You can dream, plan, scream, wish, pray and hope
But you never know

[Spoken]
That preacher didn't know (you never know)
Kenny didn't know that when he left the house that morning
He wouldn't be home that night
Oh yeah, and Wally Walker
He didn't know he was gonna win
Sixty million dollars last Saturday (you never know)

I get all choked up when you tell me you love me then whisper my name.
I get lost in your touch and I find myself
getting carried away,
to a far away place where I lose track of time
I cherish each minute endlessly
yeah that's what I do when you do what you do to me

Oh my heart goes crazy over you baby
when you do what you do
no if's and's or maybe's I'll always be in love with you

I get sentimental I get tears in my eyes
it happens so easily
yeah thats what I do when you do what you do to me

oh my heart goes crazy over you baby
when you do what you do
no if's and's or maybe's I'll always be in love with you

I still get a thrill just like the first time
but that ain't hard to believe
yeah thats what I do when you do what you do to me

yeah thats what I do when you do what you do to me

She called me up this morning
Said there’s something you should know
There’s a job back home in Boston
And I think I’m gonna go
My parents are in Cambridge
And I’ve got some old friends there
I know you think this isn’t fair

And the tears started fallin’
There was nothing I could say
Even if I fight it
Someone loses either way
Oh, it might as well be China
Or the dark side of the moon
There’s no way I can be there every Friday afternoon

I have him every weekend
He’s got his own room here
He’s all that’s kept me going
These past three years
There’s little league in Boston
Oh, but who will coach his team?
How’s he gonna grow up without me?

And the tears started fallin’
There was nothing I could say
Even if I fight it
Someone loses either way
Oh, it might as well be China
Or the dark side of the moon
There’s no way I can be there
Every Friday afternoon

What about Christmas?
If I can’t get off of work
What about his birthday?
If I’m not there he’ll be hurt
And I know the day is coming
When she’ll find someone new
But he’ll never love him
Like I do

Well, it might as well be China
Or the dark side of the moon
There’s no way I can be there
Every Friday afternoon

Barely 18 thought I knew it all
My little hometown was way too small
For the big dreams I'd been dreaming
I thought the fast lane and bright lights was what I was needin'
A few long years have come and gone
I finally saved enough to get back home
To the hills, the creeks, and timbers
Where's that slow paced laid back place I remember?

Chorus:
Tell me where has my hometown gone?
Lord this looks nothing like the place that I come from
What happened to the down home road that I was raised up on
Tell me where has my hometown gone?

There's a mini mall where I used to hunt squirrels
Time's made momma's out of the girls
I used to chase when I was younger
They say old Mayor Baker is six feet under
Riverview Drive is up to four lanes
No whistle blows from that midnight train that used to haul out of Southfield Mines
Yeah that quiet little place is just a memory of mine

(chorus)

I miss my fishin' hole, barber pole, front porch swing, drive in, skating rink, Dairy Queen

(chorus)

. . .


oh the first time that we ever danced together
you kissed me and i froze right where i stood
it felt just like that night could go on forever
thats the very moment my heart thought you would

always be always be mine
always be always be mine

remember when we drove alnight down to daytona
i dont even think we ever saw the beach
we spent half a weeks vacation in a hotel room
and that might not be your favorite memory

but it'll always be always be mine
always be always be mine

oh i know you said we dont belong together
but if by chance you ever change your mind
and you need two arms to die and to hold you

it'll always be always be mine

i still keep your picture hangin in the hallway
and all your letters in the bottom of the drawer
i still believe for everyone theres only one true love
and i realize that i'll never be yours

but you'll always be always be mine
always be always be mine
yes you'll always be always be mine
always be always be mine

music til fade

You can put it in the bank, hide it in a jar
Scrap it up, save it up for a rainy day or blow it on a car
It doesn't matter if you're rich or just plain dirt poor
Totally set, swimming in debt
Everybody wants a little more

Moola, Greenback, Bread, Dough, Cash, Yeah Money
Gotta have Gold, Pearls, Diamond Rings
Houses, Boats, Cars Ka-Ching, Money
Then Benjamin Franklins, Abraham Lincolns, Hamiltons, Washingtons
I know what you're thinking, Money.

You can bet on a race, win it in the mail
Do a lot of bad stuff and if ya got enough
It'll keep you out of jail
It'll rent a limousine, drive you to the mall downtown
Where you can eat til you pop or shop til you drop
But don't leave how without

Moola, Greenback, Bread, Dough, Cash, Yeah Money
Gotta have Gold, Pearls, Diamond Rings
Houses, Boats, Cars Ka-Ching, Money
Then Benjamin Franklins, Abraham Lincolns, Hamilitons, Washingtons
I know what you're thinking, Money

It's printed, stacked and stamped
Before it gets to you and me
It might be made out of wood
But it don't grow on trees

Moola, Greenback, Bread, Dough, Cash, Yeah Money
Gotta have Gold, Perals, Diamond Rings
Houses, Boats, Cars Ka-Ching, Money
Then Benjamin Franklins, Abraham Lincolns, Hamiltons, Washingtons
I know what you're thinking, Money

He grew up in a time,
When a third-grade education,
Was all the school you needed,
To work the family farm.
He'd take time off on Sunday,
Him and all his family,
warm a pew,
And give thanks to the Lord.

There was no gray, only black and white.
Didn't need no-one to tell him,
What was wrong or right.
'Cause he had God, Family, and Country.

He set aside his plow,
In early 1940,
Said goodbye to his small town,
And put on the Army green.
Hard Times on the front lines,
Writin' letters on wet paper,
Not one word about the awful things he'd seen.

His was a generation,
That answered without question.
They knew they had to win,
'Cause they were fightin' for...
God, Family, and Country.

On the coffee table,
Sits the family Bible,
Where just last year he added,
A little boy to the family tree.

There's the folded flag they gave us,
On the day he left us.
But the thing that I remember most,
Is the way that he...

Believed...

In God, Family, and Country...

Ohhh, we've got God...

Family...

And Country......
