1. _ Everybody Knows
(written by Matraca Berg, Gary Harrison)
Morning number 32 waking up without you
Mama's on the telephone
She says she's got a plan
She knows a nice young man
Honey if I come back home
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Everybody knows what to do about my misery
Everybody but me
Well all the girls at work say just forget the jerk
I feel better now
Even my preacher cares, said all I need is prayer
And everything will just work out
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Everybody knows what to do about my misery
Everybody but me
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Everybody knows what to do about my misery
Yeah everybody but me
Well I don't want a shrink
Don't even want a drink
Give me some chocolate and a magazine
I'll learn to live without you
Don't want to talk about you
But I can't even walk down the street
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Everybody knows what to do about my misery
Everybody but me

2. _ Under The Rainbow
(written by Matraca Berg, Randy Scruggs)
Evening, porch swing, we love to watch it rain
To some folks, it ain't much, but we think we've got it made
Some people dream about streets paved with gold
Only to find a yellow brick road
We know the way that story goes
Here under the rainbow
People pass us by
We laugh at the way they laugh at you and I
The world is spinning around and around
Everybody's lookin' for higher ground
But here under the rainbow
Dreams fall from the sky
From the sky
We've got an old car with spare parts and a broken radio
So many back seat memories we just can't let it go
Sometimes we like to take it out
Give the neighbors somethin' to talk about
Movin' as slow as the law allows
Here under the rainbow
People pass us by
We laugh at the way they laugh at you and I
The world is spinning around and around
Everybody's lookin' for higher ground
But here under the rainbow
Dreams fall from the sky
From the sky
Some people dream about streets paved with gold
Only to find a yellow brick road
We know the way that story goes
Here under the rainbow
People pass us by
We laugh at the way they laugh at you and I
The world is spinning around and around
Everybody's lookin' for higher ground
But here under the rainbow
Dreams fall from the sky
From the sky

3. _ Maybe It's Love
(written by Annie Roboff, Beth Nielsen Chapman)
Everybody's heart aches
Every time it opens
You don't know if you'll win or lose
You have to just let go
No I wasn't looking
It's funny how I found you
Just when I thought
I'd live my life alone
Maybe it's love
That I have longed for
Maybe it's love
I should be strong for
I'm tearing down the walls inside
I want to laugh, and cry and kiss
Maybe it's love
I miss
I've close my heart down
So many seasons
I didn't want to hurt again
I didn't want to try
So I turned myself to ice and stone
Said I don't need anyone
And nobody else
Would ever make me cry
Maybe it's love
I've run away from
Maybe it's love
Bringing me back home
I'm tearing down the walls inside
I want to laugh, and cry and kiss
Maybe it's love I miss
So put your arms around me now
Hold me tight
Show me how
No one has ever loved me more
I've waited for so long
Maybe it's love
Maybe I'm dreaming
Maybe it's love
I can believe in
I'm tearing down the walls inside
I want to laugh, and cry and kiss
Maybe it's love
Maybe it's love
Maybe it's love

4. _ I Need You
(written by Jess Brown, Wendell Mobley)
I could talk till I'm blue in the face
You still wouldn't hear a word I say
That television seems to be your life's ambition
Are you ignoring me purposely
Or are you really too blind to see
This neglecting me, baby it's affecting me
I need that boy
The one that chose me over every other choice
And I need that man
Whose heart and soul were in this thing when it began
I need that old friend that I once knew
Baby I need you
Do you remember how it used to be
How it felt when you were holding me
That Chevrolet was like our little get away
All the dreams we used to talk about
Are all the things that we're livin' now
But without the love, baby it just ain't enough
I need that boy
The one that chose me over every other choice
And I need that man
Whose heart and soul were in this thing when it began
I need that old friend that I once knew
Baby I need you
I need that old friend that I once knew
Baby I need you

5. _ A Lover Is Forever
(written by Fred Knobloch, Steve Goodman)
I think I understand
The reason you won't stay with me
You think a ring upon your hand
Will solve your insecurity
So go ahead and play your games
If that's what you must do
Nothing here remains the same
But the way I feel for you
I can watch you walk away
And I know that I'll get by
And I know just what to say
But honey I can't tell a lie
So figure out what you must do
I know you think you're so damn clever
You can marry any time you want
But a lover is forever
I can watch you walk away
And I know that I'll get by
And I know just what to say
But honey I can't tell a lie
Figure out what you must do
I know you think you're so damn clever
You can marry any time you want
But a lover is forever
You can marry any time you want
But a lover is forever

6. _ It's Alright
(written by Gary Nicholson, Jamie O'Hara)
You say you've been down some rocky roads
And there's a few things you wouldn't want me to know
But it's alright, baby it's alright
You say you've been running from your past
And you've taken some turns just a little too fast
Well it's alright, baby it's alright
Ain't got nothing to do with me and you tonight
And it's alright
There's nothing to run from, there's nothing to hide
And nothing can change what I'm feeling inside
Tonight's the beginning of the rest of our lives
And it's alright, it's alright
Someday you'll look back when we're farther along
And you won't see a trace of yesterday's wrong
And it's alright, baby it's alright
Ain't got nothing to do with me and you tonight
And it's alright

7. _ Little Hercules
(written by Craig Carothers)
So you cannot lift a spirit that has turned to lead
Or shine a light in shadow when the batteries are dead
Or fly like a bird over all the works of man
Or always think of the perfect words
But you do the best you can
Nothing seems as easy as it did when you were young
Myths may be invincible, but we are only strong
Strong like a memory, strong like a willow in the wind
Strong as you'll ever be, you will always need to bend
And if you feel the weight of the world
Put your mind at ease
Little Hercules
There are times when being a grown-up gets to be too much
And your sense of humor seems to vanish in the crush
Of the daily 9 to 9 that keeps your family alive
You're just putting in your time
Does anyone really go home at 5?
You've made a life where no one ever tells you what to do
Now the only tyrant that you're working for is you
It's never easy to keep all the promises you make
But no one's gonna get you fired
If you'd just give yourself a brake
And if you feel the weight of the world
Put your mind at ease
Little Hercules
'Cause there's so much on your shoulders
But you know it's a breeze
Little Hercules
Little Hercules

8. _ Find A River
(fred tackett)
Oh i wanna find a river
And take it down to the sea
And drift on by so slowly
Oh if you think about me
You know you could help me through
You know i would return in kind
Oh i wanna find a city
That's open wide
That's open all night
Where i could not hide
>from it's burnin' light
So warm, so bright
Let me run so free and easily
Shelter me with its sweet mysteries
Oh lord, oh lord, oh lord
Oh i wanna find my baby
But i do not know where he lies
And i do not know if he cries
Or laughs at me
Oh lord, oh lord, oh lord
I wanna find my baby
Oh i wanna find a river

9. _ The Chance I Take
(tom littlefield/rick rowell)
Everyone says you'll break my heart
Put out the fire before it starts
You'll string me along and then cut me loose
But i don't care what they say about you
My heart's got a history
Of letting love get the best of me
'cause i can't hide the way i feel
When i'm fallin in love it's always head over heels
It's the chance i take
It's the chance i take
I bet it on this heart of mine
I might even get lucky this time
Let the chips fall where they may
I'm a fool for love it's the chance i take
Just when i say never again
I'm throwin' caution to the wind
Nothing ventured nothing gained
The only way to win is to stay in the game
I've been on the looking end
But i still wanna love again
I sweep up the pieces when my heart breaks
Put it back together it's the chance i take
I'm a fool for love it's the chance i take
I'm a fool for love it's the chance i take

10. _ Hello, I'm Gone
(written by Kevin Welch)
Somebody's waiting back home in Dallas
With no idea where she has gone
Got her suitcase all packed up
In the back of the pickup
Got her red knee-high luccheses on
She's on any old two-lane
West bound she knows
'Cause she was chasing her shadow
When the sun finally rose
Man, she's just running
It don't matter where
She figures she'll know where she is when she's there
But she didn't leave nothin' she can't do without
That's enough reason for leavin' no doubt
She rolls down the window, turns up a song
Laughs at the weather and says, hello, I'm gone
She broke down in Lubbock
Got it stuck in reverse
So she hitched down the highway
Her little gun in her purse
Got to the station
Stared at the phone
Found herself thinkin' about calling for home
And she didn't leave nothin' she can't do without
That's enough reason for leavin' no doubt
She dropped in a quarter made herself strong
All that she told him was, 'Hello, I'm gone'
Then she called up a tow truck
Said, 'Fix up what's wrong
I'm paying in cash boys
Hello, I'm gone'

11. _ I Want To Live Again
(written by Tom Shapiro, George Teren)
Kept my head in the sand so long
It makes a heart real hard to find
I've had enough of a love gone wrong
To last a lifetime
But tear drops on a lonely night
Are never gonna make things right
I've got to get out
From under this cloud
I want to live again
I want to laugh
I want to love
I want to roll those dice
Gonna run the risk
Do the dance
Take a chance
And let the heartache ride
I want to live again
Gonna pull the curtains back
Let a little moonlight in
Run around in a Cadillac
And feel the wheels spin
And when I set my spirit free
I know the past will rest in peace
I don't care what I face
'Cause whatever it takes
I want to live again
I want to laugh
I want to love
I want to roll those dice
Gonna run the risk
Do the dance
Take a chance
And let the heartache ride
I want to live again
Teardrops on a lonely night
Are never gonna make things right
I've got to get out
From under this cloud
I want to live again
I want to laugh
I want to love
I want to roll those dice
Gonna run the risk
Do the dance
Take a chance
And let the heartache ride
I want to live again

12. _ Even A Cowboy Can Dream
(craig bickhardt/barry alfonso)
He's not much to look at
A hard-working hand
Riding that western trail
His hat's worn out
He's tall and thin as a rail
And he don't say too much
In the fire's glow
When the others are shooting the breeze
He stares at the stars
Hand on his chin
And they wonder what he sees
Its something to do with a woman
Down around abilene
It's long since over and done with
But even a cowboy can dream
Not that he's sorry
For the life he chose
He's roamed to far for regrets
The longhorns have led him
'cross thousands of miles
And into as many sunsets
When the silent nights
Give him room to think
There's a face he can't shake from his mind
It makes him consider
What life would be life
If he were the settling kind

13. _ Believe Me Baby (I Lied)
(written by Kim Richey, Angelo, Larry Gottlieb)
If there ever was a time
That I could use your trust in me
And if there ever was a reason
For me to get down on my knees
And if there's any way (if there's any way)
That you could love me anyhow
If you ever had much faith in me
I could use a little now
When I said it would suit me fine
If you were out of sight and out of mind
That wasn't me talking
That was my wounded pride
When I said I didn't want your love
And you were no one I was thinking of
Believe me baby I lied
Well I got no good excuses
But I got plenty of regrets
And I wish this was some bad dream
I could wake up and forget
'Cause you're the only one (you're the only one)
That I could never stand to lose
You're all I've ever wanted
Baby that's the truth
When I said it would suit me fine
If you were out of sight and out of mind
That wasn't me talking
That was my wounded pride
When I said I didn't want your love
And you were no one I was thinking of
Believe me baby I lied
Hey!
When I said it would suit me fine
If you were out of sight and out of mind
That wasn't me talking
That was my wounded pride
When I said I didn't want your love
And you were no one I was thinking of
Believe me baby I lied
Believe me baby I lied
