THE BRASS RING
THE CALLIOPE WAS MAKING A WONDROUS SOUND
PICKED ME A PRETTY MARE AND GRABBED
THE SADDLE HORN AND SAT DOWN.
THE FLOOR STARTED MOVING OUT FROM UNDER ME.
THE WORLD STARTED SPINNING AROUND ON ME.
STARTED WATCHING FOR THE COMING
BRASS RING.
FOR YOU, MY LADY LOVE. YOU ARE....... THE BRASS RING.
FROM HERE YOU LOOK TO FAR TO REACH.
IF I FALL OUT OF THE SADDLE, COME TO A HALTING SCREECH.
YOU ARE WORTH EVERY RISK I TAKE.
YOU ARE....... THE PERFECT MATE.
MISSED YOU ON THAT LAST TIME AROUND.
MANY GUYS ARE TRYING BUT NONE HAVE FOUND.
WHAT I KNOW IS THE KEY TO YOUR HEART.
YOU ARE...... THE BRASS RING.
I'M STRETCHING OUT FROM MY SADDLE AGAIN.
YOU'RE COMING AROUND THE BEND.
FOR YOU, MY LADY LOVE.
YOU ARE....... THE BRASS RING.
THE BRASS RING.
THE BRASS RING.


STEERING THE WHEEL
WE'RE STEERING THE WHEEL.

Can't you see this is more than just a moment for me.
I can see July bursting in the sky over you and me.
Take me to your heart.
Take me to your heart.



A THOUSAND SONGS
Helen was Queen of Sparta when she sailed off with Paris to Troy.
Her husband, the King of Sparta, wanting her back launched all ships to war.
She had a face that launched a thousand ships.
And a girl I know has such a pretty face, beautiful eyes and smile so divine.
She's got a cute nose and her wavy hair shines in the light.
She's got a face that could launch a thousand ships.
She's got a face to launch a thousand songs.
Music and lyrics come out of my mouth and my fingers pick along.
She's got a face that launched a thousand songs.
She makes this man dream of romance with this woman by my side.
My mind leaps ahead in time when she is mine and the mother of my children.
Because of she, I use my creativity. To tell her and world how wonderful she is.
And there's got to be at least a thousand ways for me to say "I love you".
Of all the pretty girls in the world it is you that I use my creativity
to tell you and the world how beautiful you are.
'Cause you've got a face that launched a thousand songs.
Music and lyrics come out of my mouth and my fingers strum along.
You've got a face that launched a thousand songs.
You've got a face...


COUNTING MY BLESSINGS
EASTER SUNDAY MORNING SEEMS SUCH A BLEAK WORLD OUTSIDE.
FOR THE ONES THAT I LOVE MOST ARE FAR AWAY, MY HEART'S DEPRIVED.
THEN I FEEL GOD'S LOVE INSIDE ME & THINK OF THE LIFE & LOVE OF JESUS.
BY COUNTING MY BLESSINGS THE SADNESS OF MY LIFE DISAPPEARS.
I SEE A NEW DAY IS DAWNING, WASHING AWAY ALL MY FEARS.
THEN I FEEL GOOD INSIDE LOOKING BACK THROUGH ALL THE YEARS.
SO BY COUNTING MY BLESSINGS ADDS UP TO I'M A RICH MAN.
RICHES GIVEN TO ME BY THE ONE GOD CALLED "I AM".
COUNTING MY BLESSINGS ADDS UP TO I'M A RICH MAN.
I CAN'T COMPLAIN I HAVE FRIENDS & FAMILY THAT ARE LOVING & WARM.
THEY MAY SEEM ORDINARY TO YOU BUT THEY HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART.
MY LIFE'S MEMORIES ARE FULL OF PRECIOUS MOMENTS WITH THEM
AND NOW WE'RE APART.
I MAY NOT HAVE MUCH MONEY BUT I FEEL MY RICHNESS INSIDE ME.
I FEEL LOVE FOR OTHERS AND FEEL THEIR LOVE FOR ME.
IT MAY NOT BE MATERIAL WEALTH BUT SPIRITUAL LOVE IS ALL I NEED.
SO BY COUNTING MY BLESSINGS ADDS UP TO I'M A RICH MAN.
RICHES GIVEN TO ME BY THE ONE GOD CALLED "I AM".
COUNTING MY BLESSINGS ADDS UP TO I'M A RICH MAN.
COUNTING MY BLESSINGS ADDS UP TO I'M A RICH MAN.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,
GOD IS WHOM I APPRECIATE!

GO WHERE LOVE IS
There's no fun here, I'm walking to the door.
I have to move on and go where love is.
It's too cold here, used to feel welcome and at home.
But there's no love here, your only emotion is control.
That's not good for my soul. Got to go where love is.
I hope one day you will find out what love is.
I tried to show you how but you seem so oblivious.
When you get tired of being alone go where love is.
Just want to be where love is.
Got to live my life where love lives.
I give it all up to go where love is.
Just want to be where love is.
Got to live my life where love lives.
I give it up to go where love is.


OTHER FISH
What I know of love it's a wonderful thing.
Love brings out the songs I write and sing.
I've been around this block a couple of times.
Someone once said the pain goes away with time.
And there are always other fish in the sea.
Follow your heart, it could lead into harm's way.
Go by your lust, it'll make you regret the day.
But without these feelings you'll never be alive.
Just keep on trying and your heart will survive.
And there are always other fish in the sea.
That is what my family and friends told me.
But words never ease the pain of a broken heart.
When rejection of my love tears me apart.
But there's always other fish in the sea.
Many beautiful girls but few are attractive to me.
'Cause beauty is as beauty does the way I see.
Want a girl who will love me the way I am.
Need a woman who will treat me like a man.
And there are always other fish in the sea.
But you know I sure loved that one fishy.
Going through again the pain of a broken heart.
Won't stop me from walking down Love Boulevard.
Knowing there's always other fish in the sea.
What I know of love it's a wonderful thing.
And there's always other fish in the sea.



If we want God to bless us, got to let God work in us.
If we want to know him, we've got to be His instrument.
If we want.
If we want God in our lives, we give our souls to purify.
If we humbly ask God for it. We'll receive His forgiveness.
If we want.
Only if we want God in our lives.
So lonely without God in our lives.
If we want.
If we want for perfect love, only comes from God above.
To quench tremendous thirst in our lives we put God first.
If we want.
Only if we want God in our lives.
It's so lonely without God in our lives.
We're led to the water's edge and yet we die of thirst.
Or we have eternal life by keeping God first.
If we want.


YOU MAKE IT EASY

ROUGH AND TUMBLE
Trying to walk the thin line, to know the truth and not the lies.
Listening to the reality. Because God's words are right for me.
To survive in this rough and tumble world.
This world has too many snags and snares and bureaucracy.
We all just go along to get along, to take care of our needs.
Losing our freedom, in this rough and tumble world.
How do we survive in this dark jungle?
By living the truth, not lies and not stumble.
But when we stumble, we've got to get up.
Or we'll get trampled, cause
it's a rough and tumble world.
Best eat right and exercise, obey the law and traffic signs.
Give the Divine what is due, trust in God to watch over you.
To protect us in this rough and tumble world.
My life has only two choices, surrender to the world or God.
How do I raise my voice, in war and hate or peace and love?
We decide in this rough and tumble world.
How can we survive in this dark jungle?
By living the truth, not lies and not stumble.
But when we stumble, we've got to get up.
Or we'll get trampled, 'cause
it's a rough and tumble world.


AMAZING
SUNDAYS ARE LIFELESS IN THIS SLEEPY SOUTHERN TOWN.
I THINK ABOUT YOU ALL DAY NOW THAT YOU'RE NOT AROUND.
I MISS YOUR EYES AND SMILE THAT LIT UP THE ROOM.
WISH I COULD HEAR YOUR VOICE THAT LIFTED MY GLOOM.
LIFE GOES ON FOR THIS LONELY BOY AGAIN.
I WAS LONELY BEFORE I GOT TO KNOW YOU AS A FRIEND.
AND NOW THAT YOU'RE GONE I RETURN TO THE SAME OL' ROUTINE,
WORK, EAT, SLEEP, DAY AFTER DAY, NOTHING IN BETWEEN.
IT'S ASTOUNDING HOW BEFORE SOMETHING WAS MISSING
BUT I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS.
FUNNY, HOW GETTING TO KNOW YOU FILLED IN THE LOSS.
ASTONISHING HOW TO BRING YOU BACK I'LL PAY WHATEVER THE COST.
AMAZING HOW ONE GIRL CAN PUT WIND IN YOUR SAILS.
ONE DAY A HERMIT THEN HER BEAUTY BRINGS YOU OUT OF YOUR SHELL
AMAZING HOW WHEN SHE'S GONE, LIFE'S COLORS TURN TO GRAY.
IS IT TOO MUCH TO HOPE YOU'LL SEE HER AGAIN SOME DAY?
IT'S ASTOUNDING HOW BEFORE SOMETHING WAS MISSING
BUT I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS.
FUNNY HOW GETTING TO KNOW YOU FILLED IN THE LOSS.
ASTONISHING HOW TO BRING YOU BACK I'LL PAY WHATEVER THE COST.
IT'S AMAZING HOW ONE GIRL CAN PUT WIND IN YOUR SAILS ....... 

CALICO GIRL
I KNOW IT'S GETTING LATE, THE SUN'S GOING DOWN.
YOUR DADDY'S CALLING FOR YOU BUT THERE'S NO ONE AROUND.
RIDDEN FIVE MILES JUST TO SEE YOU. YOU KNOW WHAT I WANT,
PLEASE GIRL DON'T REFUSE. JUST WANT ONE MORE KISS, CALICO GIRL.
THE STAR'S ARE TWINKLING BRIGHT, THE MOON'S ON HIGH.
THE MOOD IS SO RIGHT FOR YOUR KISSES DIVINE.
TOMORROW'S ANOTHER DAY BUT TONIGHT CAN BE OURS.
LET'S SPEND THE NIGHT TOGETHER, IT'S JUST A FEW HOURS.
JUST GIVE ME ONE MORE KISS, CALICO GIRL.
IF NOT I'LL BE THE LONELIEST COWBOY WEST OF THE MOHAVE.
I'LL RIDE MY HORSE BACK TO THE BUNKHOUSE MY HEAD HUNG DOWN LOW.
WHAT I'M ASKING FOR YOU KNOW, CALICO GIRL.
WILL YOU COME AND SEE ME TOMORROW AT THE DOUBLE R?
BE WORKING IN THE NORTH FORTY STRINGING NEW BARB.
BRING A PICNIC BASKET IN YOUR WAGON TOO.
YOUR BISCUITS AND FRIED CHICKEN WOULD TASTE GOOD AT NOON.
AND WEAR YOUR FAVORITE DRESS, CALICO GIRL.
I SEE YOUR DADDY STANDING IN THE DOORWAY.
I KNOW HE DOESN'T APPROVE ME KEEPING YOU OUT SO LATE.
TIME IS GETTING CLOSER WHEN I'LL ASK HIM FOR YOUR HAND.
I'M WORKING TWO JOBS SAVING UP FOR OUR RANCH LAND.
PLEASE GIVE A GOODNIGHT KISS, CALICO GIRL
AND IF YOU DO I'LL BE THE HAPPIEST COWBOY OF SOUTH CALIFORNIA.
I'LL RIDE MY HORSE BACK TO THE BUNKHOUSE, MY HEAD HELD UP HIGH.
JUST GIVE ME A KISS GOODBYE, CALICO GIRL.
JUST GIVE ME A KISS GOODBYE, CALICO GIRL.
CALICO GIRL

SING YOU GOODNIGHT
I'LL SING YOU GOODNIGHT THEN MAYBE YOU'LL CLOSE YOUR EYES.
MAYBE YOU'LL SLEEP TIGHT UNTIL THEN WAKE TOMORROW FULL OF LIFE.
BUT FOR NOW YOU'VE DONE YOUR BEST, LET'S GET SOME REST
UNTIL THE NEXT SUNRISE.
LISTEN WITH YOUR TIRED EARS 'TIL THE SOUND OF MY VOICE DISAPPEARS.
LET YOUR MIND RELAX, DREAM OF YOUR HOPES, FORGET THE PAST.
'CAUSE TOMORROW COMES WITHOUT OUR HELP BUT ASLEEP IT COMES FAST.
I'LL SING YOU GOODNIGHT 'TIL YOU'RE SOUND ASLEEP.
UNTIL YOU SNORE OUT LOUD IN A SLUMBER OH SO DEEP.
UNTIL YOU FLY ON CLOUDS I WILL SING YOU GOODNIGHT.
I CAN SEE YOUR GETTING DROWSY, THE TEMPERATURE'S RIGHT IN THE HOUSE.
ALL EXCEPT FOR ME AND THIS GUITAR EVERYTHING IS AS QUIET AS A MOUSE.
SO LET GO OF THOSE HEAVY EYELIDS AND TODAY'S BAGGAGE.
LET'S GO OFF THE LEDGE AND FLY.
AND I'LL SING YOU GOODNIGHT UNTIL YOU'RE SOUND ASLEEP.
UNTIL YOU SNORE OUT LOUD IN A SLUMBER SO DEEP.
UNTIL YOU FLY ON CLOUDS, I WILL SING YOU GOODNIGHT.
UNTIL YOU FLY ON CLOUDS I WILL SING YOU GOODNIGHT.
