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

(Overdrive)

(Overdrive)

(Overdrive)

This ain't no
Sunday drive

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

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

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

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 my love belongs to you
But baby my love belongs to you

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

. . .


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

(Thanks to Selena for these lyrics)

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...

Say I (I)

Say I (I)

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)
Say I (I)

He rattles his glass
She jumps up fast
And pours him a glass a tea
Deep in her heart she believes
That’s the way it should be
Yeah, now I’ve seen my dad get fightin’ mad
Over on 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 seee it
We may not do the way they do it
But she lives her life for him
And he gladly die for her
And even in this modern age it works
Though he’s been down on his back
He still jumps out of that sack every morning at 5 am
Havin’ her home with the kids has been worth it to him
And she takes pride in being his wife
And making thier house a home
Sometimes she wishes the world would just leave them alone
We may not see it the way they seee it
We may not do the way they do it
But she lives her life for him
And he gladly die for her
And even in this modern age it works
If the good Lords willing
There will come a day
When our children will say
We may not see it the way they seee it
We may not do the way they do it
But she lives her life for him
And he gladly die for her
And even in this modern age it works
And even in this modern age it works

. . .


I was taught to believe
Never to doubt
The man up above knew what he’s
Talkin 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
To listen very well
I walk my own way
And felt what I felt
The further out of touch
With the master plan
Well she was like a flight to the promised land
The maker said take her and love her forever
Take care of her for life
Never forsake her don’t be a heart breaker
The maker said take her
And treat her right
Just treat her right
He placed an angle in the palm of my hand
And for once in my life I obeied his commands
I’ll take her and love her forever
Take care of her for life
Never forsake her don’t be a heart breaker
The maker said take her
And treat her right
Just treat her right
Just treat her right
Take care of her for life
Never forsake her don’t be no heart breaker
The maker said take her
And treat her right
Just treat her right
For Life

I've got her photograph on the stand by my bed
Two on the mantle and thousands in my head
I can't believe how fast she's growing it ain't supposed to be like this
Everytime I look at her I see how much I've missed

I missed her first steps, her first words
And I love you Daddy is something I seldom heard
Oh it hurts me so to watch my girl grow up in pictures

I sent her money down do my best to do my part
But it can't compare to what I pay with my heart
There's still one unanswered question weighing heavy on my mind
Will she ever understand the reasons why

I missed her first steps, her first words
And I love you Daddy is something I seldom heard
Oh it hurts me so to watch my girl grow up in pictures

It takes all I have to keep the tears inside
What I wouldn't give if I could turn back time

I missed her first steps, her first words
And I love you Daddy is something I seldom heard
Oh it hurts me so to watch my baby grow up in pictures

. . .


Well, I was feeling kinda lonely, just a little bit blue
All I wanted was someone to talk to
I wasn't looking for love or a do romance
I had no intention of taking that big chance
Until she walked in, in that low-but dress
She was a first class ticket on Heartbreak Express

Well, punch my ticket, I'm headin' on down the line
First stop misery, here I go one more time
Destination dead ahead, ain't that loneliness
I got a first class ticket on Heartbreak Express

Well, I oughta know better, you think I'm learned
But if you're gonna chase fire, you're gonna get burned!
Yeah, I was still gettin' over the gurtin' from the one before
She walked in right through that ballroom door
I ain't never been one to settle for second best
I want a first class ticket to Heartbreak Express

Well, punch my ticket, I'm headin' on down the line
First stop misery, here I go one more time
Destination dead ahead, ain't that loneliness
I got a first class ticket on Heartbreak Express

Punch my ticket, I'm headin' on down the line
First stop misery, here I go one more time
Destination dead ahead, ain't that loneliness
I got a first class ticket on Heartbreak Express

I got a first class ticket on Heartbreak Express
I got a first class ticket, Heartbreak Express
I got a first class ticket on Heartbreak Express
I got a first class ticket, Heartbreak Express
