2. _ Light You Up
I just want to light you up light you up like a fire
I just want to turn you on turn you on and take you higher
Everybody wants a flat screen
Everybody wanna be seen
Everybody wanna be famous
Everybody gonna blame us
Everybody wants a real deal
Everybody wants to cop a good feel
Everybody want more money
Everybody wanna taste their honey
I just want to light you up light you up like a fire
I just want to turn you on turn you on and take you higher
Everybody wants to pick at your guitar
Everybody wanna ride in your fast car
Everybody wants a puff of your pipe dream
Everybody wanna a lick of your ice cream
And get ya wanna tell you how to live right
Your Mama and Daddy got you uptight
Never gonna go and pick another fight
I just wanna keep you up all night
I just want to light you up light you up like a fire
I just want to turn you on turn you on and take you higher
I just want to light you up light you up like a fire
I just want to turn you on turn you on and take you higher
I just want to light you light you up like a fire
I just want to turn you on turn you on and take you higher

3. _ California
Well, he was from a small town
In Northern Mississippi
She was raised on the Puget Sound
A third generation hippie
Fate would take them to L.A. County
And get them stuck in a traffic jam
And El Camino and a red Trans Am
Burst stereo was blaring Dylan
The bootleg sessions
And all the times, they are a-changing
Made a pretty good impression
She looked over and caught him smiling
Under the California setting sun
They fell in love on the one-o-one
California, California
California dreams come true
Well, they got in with the in crowd
And got off on the rock 'n' roll
Cocaine spree and the music's loud
Backstage at the Hollywood ball
They got the house and to paint the Canyon
The partied at the viper room
Blending into the neon gloom
California, California
California dreams come true
California, California
California dreams come true
Well, you see them down on the sunset strip
Trying so hard to be so hip
Manhattan Beach to Malibu
It's all about the ocean view
And who you know in Hollywood
It's cut throat but it's understood
Champagne Cooley, drink it down
You're the toast of tinsel town
California, California
California dreams come true
California, California
California dreams come true

4. _ Catoosa County
I turned 17, spring of 1861
And I killed 20 men 'fore I turned 21
20 holes and 20 men, 20 holes they's buried in
There they lay in the cold red Georgia play at Catoosa County
I can hear the screaming, I can smell black powder burning
Cannon balls flying and the Gatling guns turning
Thousand souls, a thousand men, a thousand holes they's buried in
Shallow graves in the cold heart Georgia play at Catoosa County
And the blue and the gray, paint the colors of the light
How the old men found a way to send the young men out to die
If I could I would place a 100 billion dollar bounty
On the hate that makes a war that digs graves at Catoosa County
Night falling on the hills and the blue moon comes a-shining
And I can hear the weeper wail and the ? whining
And all the souls of all the men roll in the holes they's buried in
Blue and gray and the blood red Georgia play at Catoosa County
And the blue and the gray, part the colors of the light
And it's true you can't pray but even God ain't saying why
If I could I would place a 100 billion dollar bounty
On the hate that makes wars that digs graves at Catoosa County

5. _ No Blue Sky
Cold outside but I don't blame the weather
No one is calling no one is at the door
But I can't stay inside all day
Blinds pull to the floor.
There is no blue sky in my town lately
Everybody looks at the ground
Where I am is making me hazy
But the sun has never looked so pretty going down.
It ain't right it feels like forever
So many changes I start keeping score
And if you want me you want me
You'll know where I will be
I don't get out much any more.
There is no blue sky in my town lately
Everybody looks at the ground.
I've been distracted and no thy crazy
But the sun never looked so pretty going down
The sun never looks so pretty going down
Blue sky come find me I'm waiting
Oh the sun never looks so pretty .
The sun never looks so pretty
The sun never looks so pretty.
Cloud and rain smoke and smart here
Won't see many too stars tonight
Bad in time waiting on the sunset
One last glance of gold in the goodnight
There is no blue sky in my town lately
Everybody looks at the ground
And where I am is making me hazy
But the sun has never looked so pretty
There is no blue sky in my town lately
Everybody looks at the ground
I've been distracted in gold eye crazy
But the sun never looks so pretty going down
The sun never looked so pretty going down
The sun never looked so pretty
The sun never looked so pretty.

6. _ Love Will Find a Way
Was it right, was it wrong?
Were you fighting for so long?
Did you try, did you stray?
Did you turn the other way?
Was it too much to ask?
Were you tethered to your past?
Did you stay
Hoping love would find a way?
What you got you can't hide
But it's tangled up inside
Where you walk, where you stand
Got the world in the palm of your hand
Where you've been, where you're going?
All you ever need to know
Is that love, sweet love's gonna find a way
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Take a good look around
You got both feet on the ground
Kiss the pain, taste the truth
While you hang on to your youth
You can fly far away
And dream of yesterday
And pray
Pray that love's gonna find a way
What you got you can't hide
But it's tangled up inside
Where you walk, where you stand
Got the world in the palm of your hand
Where you've been, where you're going?
All you ever need to know
Is that love, sweet love's gonna find a way
Baby, love's gonna find a way
Yeah, love's gonna find a way

8. _ Can't Remember Summer
There's a factory standing empty
Where we built your Chevrolet
And we sent our kids to college
On a forty hour wage
But now the windows all are broken
There's graffiti on the walls
And the kids came home from college
And took a job down at the mall
And the winter is getting longer
And this town is frozen now
And I can't remember summer
It feels like spring may never come
There's a half full whiskey bottle
On the table by my bed
And there's a hollow in the pillow
Where she used to lay her head
And all the dreams and all the memories
Faded pictures and crooked frames
Hang in silence down the hallway
In the chill of what remains
Now the winter is getting colder
And my heart is frozen now
And I can't remember summer
It feels like spring may never come
Shades of hopeless on the faces
Of the souls who stand in light
And Holy Jesus hangs on crosses
And I hear Mother Mary crying
Halleluiah, halleluiah
Soon it all will disappear
Buried under the snows of winter
Just like we all were never here

9. _ I Knew a Girl
I know a girl with a frozen heart
You never see her cry
I know a girl with a frozen heart
You couldn't break it if you tried
She slept alone
In a three bedroom home
But lived inside her mind
I knew that girl with a frozen heart
She was a friend of mine
I know a girl with a broken soul
Chained to a memory
I know a girl with a broken soul
She just couldn't let it be
She killed the pain
Only in vain
Just to feel good for awhile
I knew that girl with a broken soul
And a complicated smile
I know a girl with a one track mind
She's too far gone to know
I know a girl with a one track mind,
It hurts to watch her go
She never found a way to get down
Without shooting for the moon
I knew that girl, with a one track mind,
She left this world too soon

10. _ You Make It Better
Another day your doing fine
Every things okay,
Got all your ducks in line,
Its alright, life is good,
You make it better
You make it better
You know you make It better

You make It better,
You make it better
You make it better
You make it better
You know you make it better
You know you make it better
I said you make it better
You make it better

11. _ Murphy's Song
Never did think life would lead me here
To celebrate the day, dreams would disappear
I've been running around from the day I was born
When I finally stopped, found myself at home
I didn't ever think I'd be here right now
That I wouldn't feel like I was missing out
Somewhere out there someone's living my old dreams
Hope he's happy, I wouldn't trade for anything
I never saw myself as a family man
Smoke in my head and drink in my hand
And too hard to laugh, too low to cry
And the smoke went south and the drink went dry
Somewhere out there someone is living my old dreams
Hope he's happy, I wouldn't change a single thing
I'm living a new dream
I never did think I'd be here with you
I'm worse ? but I'm tried and true
Somewhere out there someone is living my old dreams
Hope he's happy and wouldn't trade for anything
I'm living a new dream
