Drinkin' dark whiskey
Tellin' white lies
One leads to another
On a Saturday night
Don't ya cross your heart
Unless you hope to die
Drinkin' dark whiskey
Tellin' white lies

Well, the first drop burns
But the second one goes down smooth
Then that old black label
Gets a hold of you
It loosens your tongue
But it never tells the truth

Drinkin' dark whiskey
Tellin' white lies
One leads to another
On a Saturday night
Don't ya cross your heart
Unless you hope to die
Drinkin' dark whiskey
Tellin' white lies

When the bottle starts talkin'
Be careful what he might say
He talks in the dark
Like he never would in the day
Then he gets in trouble
Just as soon as he gets away

Drinkin' dark whiskey
Tellin' white lies
One leads to another
On a Saturday night
Don't ya cross your heart
Unless you hope to die
Drinkin' dark whiskey
Tellin' white lies

Well a little white lie
Don't mean anyone no good
When it's makin' the rounds
All over the neighborhood
Next thing you know
You're all misunderstood
When you're...

Drinkin' dark whiskey
Tellin' white lies
One leads to another
On a Saturday night
Don't ya cross your heart
Unless you hope to die
Drinkin' dark whiskey
Tellin' white lies

Drinkin' dark whiskey
Tellin' white lies..

. . .


Trying to keep a candle burnin' in a hurricane
That's what it's like when you love me and you leave me this way
Like a dove cryin' out when he's lost the will to fly, yeah
Shackled down to the earth by your long chained of lies. well,

I'll forgive you tomorrow if the sun doesn't shine
Let you back into my life when the oceans are dry
Take you back when every shade of the rainbow turns gray
But I just can't do it today, I can't do it today.

Well, I can see you dancin' in that stranger's arms
My world hasn't stopped turnin' but it's fallin' apart
Every breath that I take's a little closer to sane, yeah
They say that time is a healer but it's still a long, long ways away. yeah.

I'll forgive you tomorrow if the sun doesn't shine
Let you back into my life when the oceans are dry
Take you back when every shade of the rainbow turns gray
But I just can't do it today, I can't do it today.

Don't wanna do it today
There's a part of me that wishes I could just forget
But I haven't found the mercy yet
No mercy yet.

I'll forgive you tomorrow if the sun doesn't shine
Let you back into my life when the oceans are dry
Take you back when every shade of the rainbow turns gray
But I just can't do it today, I just can't do it today.

I just can't do it today.
I just can't do it today.
Wanna do it today.
Can't do it today.
Not gonna do it today...

I never once backed down from a punch
Well, I'd take it square on the chin
Well, I found out fast a bully's just that
You got to stand up to him.

I didn't cry when I got a black eye
As bad as it hurt, I just grinned
But when tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again.

Scared me to death when you took your first steps
Well, I'd fall everytime you fell down
Your first day of school, I cried like a fool
And I followed your school bus to town.

Well, I didn't cry when ol' Yeller died
Least not in front of my friends
When tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again.

--- Instrumental ---

Well, I'm a grown man but as strong as I am
Well, sometimes it's hard to believe
How one little girl with little blonde curls
Can totally terrify me.

If you were to ask my wife would just laugh
She'd say I know all about men,
How tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again.

Well, I know one day I'll give you away
And I'm goin' to stand there and smile.
When I get home and I'm all alone,
Well, I'll sit in your room for awhile.

Well, I didn't cry when ol' Yeller died
Least not in front of my friends
When tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again.

When tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again...

I saw you walkin' down the street last night
I saw him walkin' by your side
I saw the way he stopped and held you tight
I saw the look in your eyes
Go on and tell him that you love him
Go on and show him he's the one
Go on and give him every sacred thing
That you used to save for us

[Chorus]
See if I care
Look at the way your tearin' me apart
Baby, see if I care
Look at the tears fallin' in this heart, baby
Go on, go on, go on
Yeah, go on, go on, go on
And see if I care

I still can hear the way you whisper
Softly in my ear
I lay awake, and I remember
The way it felt to hold you near
Go on and run your fingers through his hair
Go on and lay by his side
Go on and wrap him in your dark surrender
And all your tender lies

[Chorus]
[Chorus]

See if I care
See if I care
See if I care

. . .


Well, this town has closed down way too early
And there’s nothing to do
So I’m drivin’ around in circles
And I’m thinkin’ about you.

Today I heard you got a new last name
Sure didn’t know it was gonna hit me this way
And the radio just keeps on playin'
All these songs about rain.

Now there’s all kinds of songs
About babies and love that goes right
But for some unknown reason
Nobody wants to play them tonight

Hey, I hope it's sunny
Wherever you are
That’s sure not the picture
Tonight in my car.

And it sure ain’t easin’ my pain all these songs.
Like ''Rainy Night in Georgia'', ''Kentucky Rain''
''Here Comes That Rainy Day Feelin’ Again''
''Blues Eyes Cryin’ in the Early Mornin’ Rain.''

They go on and on,
And there’s no two the same
Oh, it would be easy to blame
All these songs about rain.

Well, I thought I was over you
but I guess maybe I’m not
When I let you go,
Looks like lonely was all that I got.

Guess I’ll never know
What could have been
Sure ain't helping
This mood that I’m in.

If they're gonna keep playin’ these songs.
Like ''Rainy Night in Georgia'', ''Kentucky Rain''
''Here Comes That Rainy Day Feelin’ Again''
''Blue Eyes Cryin’ in the Early Mornin’ Rain.''

They go on and on
And there’s no two the same
Oh, how I wish I could blame
All these songs about rain.

All these songs about rain...

. . .


I can’t stop your heart from breakin'
Can’t make right mistakes we’ve made
Can’t dry your cryin' eyes
For my little angel’s sake

I can’t make the sun keep smilin'
Or blow away the clouds
There’s some things in this ol’ world, girl
I can’t do nothin' about

(chorus)
But I can love you
Like I’ve always done
And when the hard times come a knockin'
Honey you wont ever see me run
And I wont leave you
When you need a friend
Can’t make the bad days that much better
Baby, then they’ve ever been
But I can love you

Can’t hold back the ocean waves
Or stop a sinkin ship
Can’t make a mountain move
Or tell you how to live

Chorus

And I wont leave you

When you need a friend
Can’t make the bad days that much better
Baby, then they’ve ever been
But I can love you
But I can love you

. . .


Desperation's causin' me
To question every single word you say
The distance that keeps growin'
In between us, girl, just leaves me so afraid
Well, you tried so hard to carry on
But I can tell there's somethin' wrong these days
Well girl, I've gotta know the truth
Just give it to me straight, don't look away

Chorus:
Don't look away
Don't look away
When I ask you if you love me still
And if you're gonna stay
Don't look away

Well, I've known you long enough to know
Your tryin not to let your feelins' show
Lately when i hold you near i still feel I'm sittin here alone
Well, I still feel I'm sittin' here alone
This confusion settin' in your mind
Blockin' all the words you mean to say
Well girl, I've gotta know the truth
Just give it to me straight, don't look away

"Repeat Chorus"

Don't look away
Don't look away

Well girl, I've gotta know the truth
Just give it to me straight, don't look away
When I ask you if you love me still
And if you're gonna stay
Don't look away

. . .


(Kostas/Treant Summar)

Well, there’s no more smokey bars in California,
There ain’t no wildlife left in Tennessee,
But I keep on living every song I’m singing,
And their trying to put an end to guys like me.

All that’s left in Bakersfield is a jukebox,
And it’s haunted by old songs and memories,
It’s getting hard to find a place to play my guitar,
And their trying to put an end to guys like me.

Well, I’d like to find a place where love surrounds me,
Some town where they don’t mind me hanging around,
A place where life don’t move to fast,
And what you are is not a thing of the past.

Where you can land your dreams on solid ground,
Well, I’m sitting on a barstool down on Broadway,
Waiting for my turn to sing my dreams,
I’m just a California boy with my old guitar,
And their trying to put and end to guys like me.

Well, I’d like to find a place where love surrounds me,
Some town where they don’t mind me hanging around,
A place where life don’t move to fast,
And what you are is not a thing of the past.

Where you can land your dreams on solid ground,
Well, I’m sitting on a barstool down on Broadway,
Waiting for my turn to sing my dreams,
I’m just a California boy with my old guitar,
And their trying to put and end to guys like me.

Yeah, their trying to put an end to guys like me...

. . .


I sure do hope this is a long night
Cause I have never felt one so right
Each look into your eyes, I'm fallin'
A little more and more
Looks like we started us a fire
Wrapped up in flames of desire
With every touch, they're burnin' higher
Two shadows dancin' on the wall

With nothin' on but the radio
Feel the music playin' soft and slow
You and me and the lights down low
With nothin' on but the radio

We'll fall asleep here in the moonlight
In tangled sheets, we'll be here all night
And when we wake up in the morning
We might stay like this all day
Two people meant to be together
Two lovers dreamin' of forever
And it just keeps on gettin' better
With every tender little kiss

Nothin' on but the radio
Feel the music playin' soft and slow
You and me and the lights down low
With nothin' on but the radio

Two people meant to be together
Two lovers dreamin' of forever
And it just keeps on gettin' better
With nothin' on but the radio
Feel the music playin' soft and slow
You and me and the lights down low
With nothin' on but the radio

You and me and the lights down low
With nothin' on but the radio

. . .


To you I'm just a man who let you down
The one who never gave you what you need
It's true I wasn't always around
Back when you were reaching out for me
I know you think I didn't care
You say I'm just the hurtin' kind
I know you think my heart wasn't there
But I'm begging you to think it through one more time

'Cause you don't know a thing about me
If you don't know how much I miss you
And you don't know a thing about me
Unless you know how much I need to be with you
Well I see the mistakes I made
The way I acted carelessly
But if you don't know how much I need your forgiveness
Then you don't know a thing about me

If I could just go back and make it right
And take the tears away, you know I would
I'd come to you with no excuse tonight
Just a prayer that I'll be understood
You tell me that I'm never gonna change
How I'll always be the same old guy
You think there's nothing left for us to say
Before you write me off, take a look in my eyes

'Cuz you don't know a thing about me
If you don't know how much I miss you
And you don't know a thing about me
Unless you know how much I need to be with you
Well I see the mistakes I made
The way I acted carelessly
But if you don't know how much I need your forgiveness
Then you don't know a thing about me
If you don't know how much I need your forgiveness
Then you don't know a thing about me
No, you don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me
You don't know a thing about me

A showman's life is a smoky bar
And the fevered chase of a tiny star
It's a hotel room and a lonely wife
From what I've seen of a showman's life.

Chorus:
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the wine
And the money and the good times
There's no mention of all the wear and tear
On an old honkytonker's heart
Well, I might have known it but nobody told me about this part.

A boy will dream as children do
Of a great white way 'til the dream comes true
And a phony smile and a colored light is all there is
To a showman's life.

Chorus:
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the wine
And the money and the good times
There's no mention of all the wear and tear
On an old honkytonker's heart
Well, I might have known it but nobody told me about this part.

Chorus:
Nobody told me about this part
They told me all about the pretty girls and the wine
And the money and the good times
There's no mention of all the wear and tear
On an old honkytonker's heart
Well, I might have known it but nobody told me about this part.

Well, I might have known it but nobody told me about this part...
