[Verse] Honey's on the couch, she got that look in her eye, Startin' up again, with that heavy, drawn-out sigh, Sounds like a broken record, something 'bout the trash, But I'm too tired to listen, just wish it would pass. [Verse] She goes on 'bout the dishes, and the laundry she has done, Reminiscin' 'bout the good old days when life was full of fun, Her words become a blur, floatin' in the air, I nod and say "yes dear," but I haven't a prayer. [Chorus] Naggin' on the couch, oh she's naggin' on the couch, Like a rooster at dawn, she ain't never gonna hush, We don't know what about, just a river of sound, In this small-town house, love's a battleground. [Verse] Goes on about the bills, how we're always chasin' time, How the kids need new shoes, we ain't got an extra dime, But I'm sittin' here wishin', with a beer in my hand, For a moment of peace, in this barren land. [Verse] Talks 'bout her mother, and the things that she would say, About a man who listens, gives attention every day, But honey, I swear, I'm tryin' the best I can, When you start your song, I drift like desert sand. [Chorus] Naggin' on the couch, oh she's naggin' on the couch, Like a rooster at dawn, she ain't never gonna hush, We don't know what about, just a river of sound, In this small-town house, love's a battleground.
[Verse] Well, I was driving down that old dirt road, When my stomach did a twist and fold, Pulled to the side, didn't have a choice, Nature's calling in a thundering voice. [Verse 2] Found a spot where the tall grass grows, Far from the farm and the feelin' shows, Got my boots on, wadin' through, Gonna answer nature, do a bush poo. [Chorus] Out in the bush, with the cattle and the crow, Squattin' down low, where nobody'll know, Ain't no throne, just a field and sky so blue, Livin' country life with a bush poo. [Verse 3] Cows they mooed, and the wind it howled, Figured it was time, so I hunkered down, Mosquitoes buzzin' but what could I do? Sometimes you just gotta go in view. [Bridge] Thought of mama’s pie cooling on the sill, Wandered how I got here, gave me quite the thrill, This ain't classy, no porcelain throne, But out here, it's just me and the great unknown. [Chorus] Out in the bush, with the cattle and the crow, Squattin' down low, where nobody'll know, Ain't no throne, just a field and sky so blue, Livin' country life with a bush poo.
[Verse] On a summer's dusty morning, in a town that's barely grown, There's a jar on Mama's table, and it's filled to the brim with hope. It's just a simple glass of water, but it shines like morning dew, A little thing that keeps us going, keeps us steady, keeps us true. [Verse 2] Daddy's workin' in the fields, sweat and sun his only friends, And when he comes back home exhausted, that jar revives him once again. Mama's eyes are tired but smiling, as she pours out all her love, It's just a simple act of tender, in this life that's often tough. [Chorus] Oh, that simple glass of water, but it means the world to me, It's a symbol of our struggles and our sweet simplicity. We don't need no fancy comforts, just a moment to revive, In a glass of crystal clarity, that's how we stay alive. [Verse 3] Kids are playing by the river, splashing laughter, chasing dreams, And when the sun sets low and lazy, they run home to joy, it seems. There's that glass upon the counter, waiting patient, waiting pure, It's a token of the beauty in a life that's mostly poor. [Verse 4] Grandpa's stories of the old days, told around that humble gleam, Dreams of far-off destinations, but contentment in between. He lifts that simple glass of water, takes a sip and then a sigh, Reminds us all of what we're holding, keeps the memories alive. [Chorus] Oh, that simple glass of water, but it means the world to me, It's a symbol of our struggles and our sweet simplicity. We don't need no fancy comforts, just a moment to revive, In a glass of crystal clarity, that's how we stay alive.
(Chorus) So call me and let's have some fun Be more than friends, let's shine brighter than the sun In the end, you're the one I've been dreaming of Just call me, let's ignite this fire of love (Verse 1) You're a perfect 10, driving me crazy to no end Every time you smile, my heart begins to mend I dream of the day when you'll be mine No more workin' 9 to 5, just us two intertwined (Chorus) So why don't you call me and let's have some fun Be more than friends, let's outshine the sun In the end, you're the one I've been dreaming of Just call me, let's ignite this fire of love (Verse 2) Your laughter is like music to my ears Being with you erases all my fears I can't imagine life without your touch Together we'll conquer, oh how I love you so much (Chorus) So call me and let's have some fun Be more than friends, let's shine brighter than the sun In the end, you're the one I've been dreaming of Just call me, let's ignite this fire of love (Bridge) I'll be your rock, your guiding light Together we'll soar to new heights No more loneliness, just you and me Our love story, for all to see (Chorus) So call me and let's have some fun Be more than friends, let's shine brighter than the sun In the end, you're the one I've been dreaming of Just call me, let's ignite this fire of love (Outro) So darling, pick up the phone Together forever, we'll never be alone Just call me, let's have some fun Our love story has only just begun
[Verse] Through the straits of Formosa Where the typhoons collide Leathernecks march with the weary tides The eagle’s wings hang heavy With duty's iron chain In the heart of the Orient Where freedom remains [Verse 2] From Pendleton to Kaohsiung It's a long Restless road Echoes of Dixie in the dragon's abode Faded letters in pockets Stained with mud and rain Granddad’s tales of Chu Lai blend with the pain [Chorus] With Semper Fi on our lips and the dawn in our eyes We stand in the breach ‘neath Asian skies For a land not our own Yet a bond tight and true We're the few The proud In the red White And blue [Verse 3] The bamboo shadows flicker with whispers of old In the village of Taiping Stories unfold Underneath the soft lanterns Memories fade slow Brothers in arms Facing the unknown [Verse 4] The dragon's breath shifts Casting shadows so deep As we stand vigilant while the restless sleep With rifles shouldered high In the misty twilight Guardians of freedom 'til first morning light [Bridge] The weight of the old world rests on young shoulders here With a compass set westward and the people's cheer In the silence of watch Hear the spirits of home In this foreign land We’re never alone
[Verse] Neon signs flicker on Main Street's dim glow, Shadows where we used to dance real slow. Night falls like a curtain, cold and unkind, Haunted by echoes of love left behind. [Verse 2] Fields that once whispered sweet secrets at dawn, Now whisper sorrow, 'cause baby, you're gone. The old diner closed, the jukebox stands still, Silent as the ache that I can't seem to kill. [Chorus] Lonely trucks rumble down an empty road, Carrying dreams that never quite showed. This town wore us down, it’s us who it chose, Now I'm left with the empty town blues. [Verse 3] Barrow Creek Bridge where we carved our names, Worn by the weather, washed away by rain. No one visits that spot anymore, It's a relic just like what we swore. [Verse 4] Grandma's old barn, falling beams and dust, Still smells like home, still shields the rust. Yet everytime I pass by, I see your face, In the fragments of memories this heart can't replace. [Chorus] Lonely trucks rumble down an empty road, Carrying dreams that never quite showed. This town wore us down, it’s us who it chose, Now I'm left with the empty town blues.
[Verse] Snap your fingers, do it yourself, We all out here chasing wealth. Moving smooth like no one else, Under stars, our stories can we tell. [Verse 2] Out on the porch with a warm night's breeze, Strumming guitars, feeling at ease. Grandpa's tales and Mama's pleas, Under the stars, memories seize. [Chorus] Gold ain't glitter, it's just in our eyes, Dreams on the river, 'neath southern skies. Chasing that wealth, while time just flies, Under stars, our truth never lies. [Verse 3] Rollin' fields and endless roads, Every mile, a story unfolds. Livin' life in simple codes, Under stars, where the night explodes. [Bridge] We’re more than dollars and shiny things, Hearts and hopes, with angel wings. In this dance, the future sings, Under stars, where our spirit clings. [Chorus] Gold ain't glitter, it's just in our eyes, Dreams on the river, 'neath southern skies. Chasing that wealth, while time just flies, Under stars, our truth never lies.
(Verse 1) Cruising down the highway, pedal to the floor 7 Eleven on the corner, I need a little more Heart racing fast, got the police on my tail Ain't looking back now, gotta prevail (Pre-Chorus) Red and blue lights flashing in the rear view Got no time to waste, no time to lose I'm a renegade, born to run wild In the night, I'm a force, a powerful style (Chorus) Running from the police, chasing down my dreams Through the city streets, I'm a runaway machine Engines roaring, hearts pounding like a drum No stopping me now, I'm on the run (Verse 2) Speeding through the city lights, adrenaline rush Every turn I take, every move, every hush Feeling alive in the dead of the night There's no turning back, I'm ready for the fight (Pre-Chorus) Red and blue lights flashing in the rear view Got no time to waste, no time to lose I'm a renegade, born to run wild In the night, I'm a force, a powerful style (Chorus) Running from the police, chasing down my dreams Through the city streets, I'm a runaway machine Engines roaring, hearts pounding like a drum No stopping me now, I'm on the run (Bridge) Living on the edge, taking chances on the line Ain't afraid to break free, ain't afraid to shine I'll keep on moving, keep on pushing through No one can catch me, I'll always be true (Chorus) Running from the police, chasing down my dreams Through the city streets, I'm a runaway machine Engines roaring, hearts pounding like a drum No stopping me now, I'm on the run. (Outro) I'm on the run, no looking back In my soul, I'm on the right track Running from the police, chasing my fate In the world of speed, it's never too late.

Whiskey... You should never drink...alone... Whiskey... You should never drink again! You talk into your mic... Acting like you have the riiiiight... But no one cares... What the hell... You're saying...
