Because These Things Will Change
Can You Feel It Now?
These Walls That They Put Up To Hold Us Back Will Fall Down
This Revolution, The Time Will Come
For Us To Finally Win
We Sing Hallelujah, We Sing Hallelujah

So We’ve Been Outnumbered
Raided And Now Cornered
It’s Hard To Fight When The Fight Ain’t Fair
We’re Getting Stronger Now
Find Things They Never Found
They Might Be Bigger
But We’re Faster And Never Scared
You Can Walk Away, Say We Don’t Need This
But There’s Something In Your Eyes
Says We Can Beat This

Because These Things Will Change
Do You Feel It Now?
These Walls That They Put Up To Hold Us Back Will Fall Down
This Revolution, The Time Will Come
For Us To Finally Win
We Sing Hallelujah, We Sing Hallelujah

Tonight We’ll Stand, Get Off Our Knees
Fight For What We’ve Worked For All These Years
And The Battle Was Long, It’s The Fight Of Our Lives
But We’ll Stand Up Champions Tonight

It Was The Night Things Changed
Do You See It Now?
These Walls That They Put Up To Hold Us Back Fell Down
It’s A Revolution, Throw Your Hands Up
Cause We Never Gave In
And We’ll Sing Hallelujah, We Sang Hallelujah
Hallelujah!

Wanna Little More Right And A Little Less Left
Little More Right Now, A Little Less What’s Next
Act Like Tomorrow’s Ten Years Away
And Just Kick Back And Let The Feelin’ Flow
Drink A Little Drink, Smoke A Little Smoke

I Set My Sails For A New Direction
But The Wind Got In My Way
I Changed My Course But My Definition Of Change
Just Ain’t The Same

I’m Gonna Sit Right Here, Stay Away From There
I’m Gonna Make Pretend I Just Don’t Care
And I Could Get Up, Go Get Her Back Or Maybe I’ll Just Let Her Go
Drink A Little Drink, Smoke A Little Smoke

Go Get Her Back
Drink A Little Drink, Smoke A Little Smoke
Drink A Little Drink, Smoke A Little Smoke

I Kick Back, Give The Blues Spin
Break Out The Wine, Forget Again
Dig Down Deep, Find My Stash
Light It Up, Take Me Back

I Kick Back, Give The Blues Spin
Break Out The Wine, Just Forget Again
Dig Down Deep, Find My Stash
Light It Up, Memory Crash

Oh No, I Don’t Know Baby My Take On Life
Maybe Break Out That Old Rock And Roll
Drink A Little Drink, Smoke A Little Smoke
Gonna Drink A Little Drink, Smoke A Little Smoke

Any Man Of Mine Better Be Proud Of Me
Even When I’m Ugly He Still Better Love Me
And I Can Be Late For A Date Thats Fine
But He Better Be On Time

Any Man Of Mine’ll Say It Fits Just Right
When Last Years Dress Is Just A Little Too Tight
And Anything I Do Or Say Better Be Okay
When I Have A Bad Hair Day

Bridge:
And If I Change My Mind A Million Times
I Wanna Hear Him Say,
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah,
I Like It That Way

Chorus:
Any Man Of Mine Better Walk The Line
Better Show Me A Teasin’ Squeezin’ Pleasin’ Kinda Time
I Need A Man Who Knows How The Story Goes
He’s Gotta Be A Heartbeatin’ Fine Treatin’
Breath Takin’ Earthquakin’ Kind
Any Man Of Mine

Well Any Man Of Mine Better Diasagree
When I Say Another Woman’s Lookin’ Better Than Me
And When I Cook Him Dinner And I Burn It Black
He Better Say “mm, I Like It Like That”
Yeah

Bridge
Chorus

Let Me Hear You Say
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah,
I Like It That Way

Chorus

You Better Shimmy, Shake, Make The Earth Quake
Kick, Turn, Stomp, Stomp,
Then You Jump
Heel To Toe, Do Si Do
’til Your Boots Wanna Break
’til Your Feet And Your Back Ache
Keep It Movin’ Til You Just Can’t Take Anymore
Come On Everybody On The Floor
A-one Two A-three Four
Hup Two Hup
If You Wanna Be A Man Of Mine, That’s Right
This Is What A Woman Wants

Sleeping under a table at a road side park
A man could wake up dead
But it sure seems warmer than it did
Sleepin in our king size bed

Chorus
Is anybody goin to san antone
Or pheonix arizona
Anyplace is alright as long as i
Can forget i’ve ever known her

Wind whipping down the neck of my shirt
Like i aint got nothing on
But i’d rather fight the wind and rain
Than what i’ve been fighting at home

Yonder comes a truck with the us mail
People writing letters back home
Tomorrow she’ll probably want me back
But i’ll still be just as gone

Chorus
Is anybody goin to san antone
Or pheonix arizona
Anyplace is alright as long as i
Can forget i’ve ever known her

Anyplace is alright as long as i
Forget i’ve ever known her

Whistle to fade

You ask me if i’m happy, if i have peace within
If i’m worried ’bout tomorrow when i reach my journey’s end
Well, i’m satisfied with my jesus when he knocks i let him in
He’ll go with me through the valley for i know he is my friend.

Satisfied, satisfied, no troubles can ever get me down
For when my eyes are closed in death with my jesus i’ll be at rest
Then you’ll know i’m satisfied
I’ve got that old time religion, got that old time religion
At his side i’m satisfied.

If my friends they all forsake me and they turn me from their door
If they sow no seeds of kindness make the thorns in my path grow
Oh, it don’t matter over yonder when i reach that other side
For i’m gonna sit down by my jesus satisfied, i’m satisfied.

Satisfied, satisfied, no troubles can ever get me down
For when my eyes are closed in death with my jesus i’ll be at rest
Then you’ll know i’m satisfied
I’ve got that old time religion, got that old time religion
At his side i’m satisfied…

She grew up with
The children of the stars
In the hollywood hills and the boulevard
Her parents threw big parties
Everyone was there
They hung out with folks like
Dennis hopper, bob seger, sonny and cher

Now, she feels safe
In this bar on fairfax
And from the stage i can tell that
She can’t let go and she can’t relax
And just before
She hangs her head to cry
I sing to her a lullaby, i sing

Everything’s gonna be all right
Rockabye, rockabye
Everything’s gonna be all right
Rockabye, rockabye
Rockabye

She still lives with her mom
Outside the city
Down that street about a half a mile
And all her friends tell her
She’s so pretty
But she’d be a whole lot prettier
If she smiled once in a while
’cause even her smile
Looks like a frown
She’s seen her share of devils
In this angel town

But, everything’s gonna be all right
Rockabye, rockabye
Everything’s gonna be all right
Rockabye, rockabye
Rockabye

I told her i ain’t so sure
About this place
It’s hard to play a gig in this town
And keep a straight face
Seems like everyone here’s got a plan
It’s kind of like nashville with a tan, but,

Everything’s gonna be all right
Rockabye, rockabye
Everything’s gonna be all right
Rockabye, rockabye

Everything’s gonna be all right
Rockabye, rockabye
Everything’s gonna be all right
Rockabye, rockabye, rockabye, bye, bye
Bye, bye

Cause we got no money
Nothing of our own honey
Got your daddy all worried
Cause times are tough
We got love, baby
It don’t sound like much maybe
There ain’t no way that’s not enough
Cause we got us

They say life’s not a love song
I thinks everybody’s all wrong
So far, forever sounds good to me
We’ve got california moonlight
Enough gas to make it to the sunrise
And two hearts believing that’s all we’d need
Nothing here’s missing
This is what i call living

Cause we got no money
Nothing of our own honey
Got your daddy all worried
Cause times are tough
We got love, baby
It don’t sound like much maybe
There ain’t no way that’s not enough
Cause we got us

Oh, we’ve come too far to turn around
Nothing can stop us, not now
Someday we’re gonna laugh
At the way things used to be

When we had no money
Nothing of our own honey
We had your daddy all worried
Cause times were tough
We got love, baby
It don’t sound like much maybe
There ain’t no way that’s not enough
Cause we got us
We got us, yeah yeah

Well, i wasn’t foolin’ ’round the day i said i’d do
But many a night i wished that i’ve been foolin’ too
I know it’s foolish takin’ all this misery
But when it’s you a fool i’ll always be.

I know that you’ve been foolin’ ’round on me right from the start
So i’ll take back my ring and i’ll take back my heart
And when you’re tired of foolin’ ’round with 2-0-3
Then come on home and fool around with me.

— instrumental —

So honey fool around you’ll know right where i’m at
Don’t worry if i’m lonesome cause i’m used to that
And when you’re tired of foolin’ ’round with 2-0-3
Then come on home and fool around with me.

I know that you’ve been foolin’ ’round on me right from the start
So i’ll take back my ring and i’ll take back my heart
And when you’re tired of foolin’ ’round with 2-0-3
Then come on home and fool around with me…

What a change you have made in my heart
What a change you have made in my heart
You replaced all the broken parts
Oh, what a change you have made in my heart.

Love to me was just a word in a song that had been way overused
But now i’ve joined in the singin’
’cause you’ve shown me love’s true meanin’
That’s why i want to spread the news.

What a difference you’ve made in my life
What a difference you’ve made in my life
You’re my sunshine day and night
Oh, what a difference you’ve made in my life.

What a difference you’ve made in my life (listen to it)
What a difference you’ve made in my life
You’re my sunshine day and night
Oh, what a difference you’ve made, yeah.

You’re my sunshine day and night
Oh, what a difference you’ve made.

You’re my sunshine day and night
Oh yeah, sing it to me
What a difference you’ve made.

What a difference you’ve made in my life
You’re my sunshine day and night
Oh, what a difference you’ve made
What a difference you’ve made, in my life…

There’s Not Enough Rain In Oklahoma
To Wash The Sins Out Of That House
There’s Not Enough Wind In Oklahoma
To Rip The Nails Out Of The Past

Shatter Every Window Till It’s All Blown Away,
Every Brick, Every Board, Every Slamming Door Blown Away
Till There’s Nothing Left Standing,
Nothing Left Of Yesterday
Every Tear-soaked Whiskey Memory Blown Away,
Blown Away

She Heard Those Sirens Screaming Out
Her Daddy Laid There Passed Out On The Couch
She Locked Herself In The Cellar
Listened To The Screaming Of The Wind
Some People Called It Taking Shelter
She Called It Sweet Revenge

There’s Not Enough Rain In Oklahoma
To Wash The Sins Out Of That House
There’s Not Enough Wind In Oklahoma
To Rip The Nails Out Of The Past

Shatter Every Window Till It’s All Blown Away,
(blown Away)
Every Brick, Every Board, Every Slamming Door Blown Away
(blown Away)
Till There’s Nothing Left Standing,
Nothing Left Of Yesterday
Every Tear-soaked Whiskey Memory Blown Away,
Blown Away, Blown Away, Blown Away, Blown Away

Chorus:
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away her memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said I’ll love her ’til I die
And when we buried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby.

(Both)
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la.

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la.

(Alison)
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind,
Until the night.

Chorus: (Both)
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby.

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la.

And Girl, Lovin’ You Is Something I Was Born To Do
It’s Just That Way

The Ocean Wet The Desert Dry
Don’t Ask Me Why, ’cause I Can’t Say
It’s Just That Way
As Sure As The World Keeps Turnin’
My Love For You Will Never Change
Oh, It’s Just That Way

And Girl, Lovin’ You Is Something I Was Born To Do
It’s Just That Way

And Girl, Lovin’ You Is Something I Was Born To Do
It’s Just That Way

That Ol’ Sun Comes Up Every Mornin’, It’s Just That Way

When You’re Weak, I’ll Be Strong
When You Let Go, I’ll Hold On
When You Need To Cry, I Swear That I’ll Be There To Dry Your Eyes
When You Feel Lost And Scared To Death,
Like You Can’t Take One More Step
Just Take My Hand, Together We Can Do It
I’m Gonna Love You Through It.

She Made It Through The Surgery Fine
They Said They Caught It Just In Time
But They Had To Take More Than They Planned
Now It’s Forced Smiles And Baggy Shirts
To Hide What The Cancer Took From Her
But She Just Wants To Feel Like A Woman Again
She Said, “I Don’t Think I Can Do This Anymore”
He Took Her In His Arms And Said “That’s What My Love Is For”

When You’re Weak, I’ll Be Strong
When You Let Go, I’ll Hold On
When You Need To Cry, I Swear That I’ll Be There To Dry Your Eyes
When You Feel Lost And Scared To Death,
Like You Can’t Take One More Step
Just Take My Hand, Together We Can Do It
I’m Gonna Love You Through It.

And When This Road Gets Too Long
I’ll Be The Rock You Lean On
Just Take My Hand, Together We Can Do It
I’m Gonna Love You Through It.
I’m Gonna Love You Through It.

I work five days a week girl
Loading crates down on the dock
I take my hard earned money
And meet my girl down on the block
And Monday when the foreman calls time
I’ve already got Friday on my mind

When that whistle blows
Girl, I’m down the street
I’m home, I’m out of my work clothes
When I’m out in the street
I walk the way I wanna walk
When I’m out in the street
I talk the way I wanna talk
When I’m out in the street
When I’m out in the street

When I’m out in the street, girl
Well, I never feel alone
When I’m out in the street, girl
In the crowd I feel at home
The black and whites they cruise by
And they watch us from the corner of their eye

But there ain’t no doubt girl, down here
We ain’t gonna take what they’re handing out
When I’m out in the street
I walk the way I wanna walk
When I’m out in the street
I talk the way I wanna talk
Baby, out in the street I don’t feel sad or blue
Baby, out in the street I’ll be waiting for you

When the whistle blows
Girl, I’m down the street
I’m home, I’m out of my work clothes
When I’m out in the street
I walk the way I wanna walk
When I’m out in the street
I talk the way I wanna talk

When I’m out in the street
Pretty girls, they’re all passing by
When I’m out in the street
From the corner, we give them the eye

Baby, out in the street I just feel all right
Meet me out in the street, little girl, tonight
Meet me out in the street
Meet me out in the street

Every Light Is Burnin’
In A House Across Town
She’s Pacin’ By The Telephone
In Her Faded Flannel Gown
Askin’ For A Miracle
Hopin’ She’s Not Right
Prayin’ It’s The Weather
That’s Kept Him Out All Night
And The Thunder Rolls
And The Thunder Rolls

(Chorus)
The Thunder Rolls
And The Lightning Strikes
Another Love Grows Cold
On A Sleepless Night
As The Storm Blows On
Out Of Control
Deep In Her Heart
The Thunder Rolls

She’s Waitin’ By The Window
When He Pulls Into The Drive
She Rushes Out To Hold Him
Thankful He’s Alive
But On The Wind And Rain
A Strange New Perfume Blows
And The Lightnin’ Flashes In Her Eyes
And He Knows That She Knows
And The Thunder Rolls
And The Thunder Rolls

*(Some Versions May Not Have This Part)*

She Runs Back Down The Hallway
And Through The Bedroom Door
She Reaches For The Pistol
Kept In The Dresser Drawer
Tells The Lady In Mirror
He Won’t Do This Again
‘Cause Tonight Will Be The Last Time
She’ll Wonder Where He’s Been
The Thunder Rolls
And The Lightnin’ Strikes
Another Love Grows Cold, Darlin’
On A Sleepless Night
As The Storm Blows On
Out Of Control
Deep In Her Heart
The Thunder Rolls

I can almost kiss you now
When i close my eyes i feel your lips on mine
It’s so hard to fight
What i feel inside, for you

I gotta get back, do i do
I gotta get back, do, do i do
I gotta get back, do i do
Butterflies take control me
Why’s this airplane go so slowly
Flutter faster take me home to you

I can almost see you now
Is my imagination foolin’ me somehow
Flying through the lining of a silver cloud
I’m gettin’ closer now

I can almost hear you now
Oh, saying you love me like you know how
I wish this plane would just reach down and
Touch the ground, i swear i see you now

I gotta get back, do i do
I gotta get back, do, do i do
I gotta get back, do i do
Butterflies take control me
Why’s this airplane go so slowly
Flutter faster take me home to you

I gotta get back, do i do
I gotta get back, do, do i do
I gotta get back, do i do
Butterflies take control me
Why’s this airplane go so slowly
Flutter faster take me home to you

Oh baby, ooh
Oh yeah

Found it over in the corner
Wadded up on the bedroom floor
You shoulda hid it in the closet
You shoulda burned it, you shoulda lost it

Now i’ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
Leave ’em blowing in the wind, just say goodbye to you
All those midnights sneaking in
“i’m late again, oh, i’m so sorry”
All the ajax in the world ain’t gonna clean your dirty laundry

If the neighbors get to asking, i won’t cover nothin’ up
I’ll tell ’em every little detail, how you drug me through the mud
I’m gonna string up your old button-down and slide it on the porch
Just in case you get the nerve to come knockin’ on my door

Yeah, i’ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
Leave ’em blowing in the wind, just say goodbye to you
All those midnights sneaking in
“i’m late again, oh, i’m so sorry”
All the ajax in the world ain’t gonna clean your dirty laundry

Found it over in the corner
Wadded up on the bedroom floor
You shoulda hid it in the closet
You shoulda burned it, you shoulda lost it

Now i’ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
Leave ’em blowing in the wind, just say goodbye to you
All those midnights sneaking in
“i’m late again, oh, i’m so sorry”
All the ajax in the world ain’t gonna clean your dirty laundry

(out to dry)
(to the line)
