I JUST WANT TO DANCE WITH YOU

(Roger Cook - John Prine) « © '86 Screen Gems Music, BMI »
I don't want to be the kind to hesitate
Be too shy wait too late
I don't care what they say other lovers do
I just want to dance with you

I've got a feeling that you have a heart like mine
So let it show let it shine
If we have a chance to make one heart or two
I just want to dance with you

I want to dance with you twirl you all around the floor
That's what they intended dancin' for I just want to dance with you
I want to dance with you hold you in my arms once more
That's what they invented dancin' for I just want to dance with you

I caught you looking at me when I looked at you
Yes I did ain't that true
You won't get embarrassed by the things I do
I just want to dance with you

Oh the boys are playing softly and the girls are too
So am I and so are you
If this was a movie we'd be right on cue
I just want to dance with you

I want to dance with you...
I want to dance with you...

I just want to dance with you I just want to dance with you
I just want to dance with you

ONE STEP AT A TIME

(Earl Clark - Luke Reed) « © '97 Mighty Nice Music, BMI »
I couldn't help but overhear your conversation
When you told her that you owned her heart and soul
You say you've got her wrapped around your finger
But there's something about angels you should know

She'll walk away one step at a time
It'll take you by surprise you'll think it happened over night
It'll be too late when you realize angels don't fly
They just walk away one step at a time
[ fiddle - steel ] Don't think that I'm trying to mind your business
It's a full time job just trying to mind mine
But I once had an angels just like her
And if I'd treated her right she'd still be by my side

She'll walk away one step at a time...

It'll be too late when you realize angels don't fly
They just walk away one step at a time

TRUE

(Marvin Green - Jeff Stevens) « © '98 Golden Wheat Music, BMI »
True in this modern world when two lovers get together
Chances of 'em ever makin' it to forever
Couldn't be better than two in a million hearts
Girl this ain't just another run of the mill emotion
What I'm feeling is the definition of devotion
My love for you is true

True like the sun coming up each morning bright as the light in a baby' smile
Sure as a mountain river winding right as the rain falling from the sky
Girl my love for you is true

True not another minute on this earth can be borrowed
So there's no way to know when I'll live my last tomorrow
But everyday I get I'll share with you
This feelin' just keeps gettin' stronger as the time goes by
It's written on my face you can see it in my eyes
My love for you is true

True like the sun coming up each morning...
[ guitar - steel ] True like the sun coming up each morning...

REMEMBER THE ALAMO

(Wayne Kirkpatrick - Gordon Kennedy) « © '98 Sell The Cow Music, BMI »
Girl you were always my yellow rose and I was your one lone star
We always said together till death do us part
We had a love bigger than Texas where is that feeling now
It's taken some hits and some losses but it's fighting on and standing somehow

Remember the man who asked for your hand in the moonlight of San Antone
There by the mission you let your position be known
That you loved me so
Don't forget where it started remember the Alamo
[ guitar ] I think we can hold on and make it together if we remember when
And get back to love the way that it was back then
When we were hopeless romantics needing each other willing to take a chance
We strolled and we talked down the old river walk to the heart of when it began

Remember the man who asked for your hand...
[ steel ] Remember the man who asked for your hand...

MARIA

(Robert E. Keen) « © '89 Songs Of Universal, BMI »
There's a soft rain tapping on your window
There's a cool breeze blowing off the bay
And a warm flame dancing with our shadows
To music playing far away

I never meant to stay an hour
I thought that I was passing through
Another town along the highway
I never meant to fall for you

But I can't speak for you Maria I only know the way I feel
When I sleep with you Maria there's nothing left for dreams to steal

On a Bible by the mirror
The only treasure's that we hold
The only secrets that we're keeping
A watch a chain a cross of gold

But I can't speak for you Maria...

When the sunlight brings the morning
I can't tell you what I'll do
But I've a mind to take you with me
And I've a heart to stay with you

But I can't speak for you Maria...
When I sleep with you Maria there's nothing left for dreams to steal

WE REALLY SHOULDN'T BE DOING THIS

(Jim Lauderdale) « © '97 Mighty Nice Music, BMI »
We really shouldn't be a doing this and we both know why
Just being close enough to think like this enough to make you need to lie
This kinda talk will lead us to somewhere we're gettin' way too close to going there
The farther off the better to resist we really shouldn't be doing this

Only an isolated incident but the acquaintance left me stunned
The first attration was the hardest hit I thought I'd ever overcome
This kinda situation has to pass this chance encounter has to be the last
To take it further we would be remiss we really shouldn't be a doing this
[ fiddle - steel ] We'd each be hurting somebody else if we don't say our goodbyes real fast
Won't even think about a farewell kiss we really shouldn't be a doing this

Well we really shouldn't be a doing this...
This kinda situation has to pass...
Won't even think about a farewell kiss we really shouldn't be a doing this

WHY NOT NOW

(Steve Bogard - Jeff Stevens) « © '98 Warner-Tamerlane Publishing, BMI »
You take it nice and easy
You play it safe cause that's what people do today
I guess that's okay
Girl somewhere in your mind there must be a perfect time to fall in love
But baby I'm burnin' up

So why not now why not here darling my heart just ain't too clear
Oh what are we waiting for cause I've never been so sure
Why not you why not me living like we were meant to be
Together forever why not now

Right here in this moment
We could start a love to stand the test of time
Baby you know that's right
No one knows tomorrow the morning sun could rise and take our chance away
Long gone with yesterday

So why not now why not here...
[ guitar ] Why not now why not here...

THAT'S THE BREAKS

(Dean Dillon - Royce Porter) « © '98 Acuff-Rose Music, BMI »
Well that's just great just what I needed
The icing on the cake you're leaving
But I give up throw up my hands
There's nothing I can say or do I've done all that I can

That's the breaks the way the cookie crumbles
What goes around comes around they say
That's the breaks the way that old cookie crumbles
What's been coming round ain't been going my way
[ guitar ] Well surprise me tell me something new
I know leaving's what I got coming from you
And I'm sorry you know I am
But one way or another I'll come through in one piece once again

That's the breaks...

What's been coming round ain't been going my way
That's the breaks

NEON ROW

(Donny Kees - Jimmy Jay) « © '86 Careers Music, BMI »
You've been out again tonight with the girls out on the town
But in those magic neon lights I know exactly what you've found
What about your home and a man who loves you so
Is it worth the thrill you feel down on neon row

Where if you're lonely then you're easy them good old boys just pick and choose
And lonely women are in season for one night stands and all night blues
Where all those lonely high-heeled ladies are always puttin' on a show
But in the mornin' they ain't puttin' on coffee
They're puttin' back on the clothes they wore the night before to neon row

Girl I can't hold you back not one day longer
If my love ain't strong enough to keep you home
Just start the fire to burn the bridges
And maybe some night we'll meet in the magic light down on neon row

Where if you're lonely then you're easy...
Puttin' back on the clothes they wore the night before to neon row

YOU HAVEN'T LEFT ME YET

(Kent M. Robbins - Dana Hunt Oglesby) « © '97 Irving Music, BMI / Neon Sky Music, ASCAP »
The laughter is gone the crying is over
And I'm not losing sleep anymore
The walls are all bare the closet's half empty
The phone doesn't ring like before
I'm done with fallin' apart I'm waitin' for my change of heart

I wake up alone knowing I'm on my own again
Got it all straight in my head
Must be something I missed as I went down the list
Of the things that I need to forget
Everything's gone but you haven't left me yet

I painted our room replaced all the curtains
And there's a new rug on the floor
Called up the Good Will said come and get it
Everything she left behind is yours
I can still see you drivin' away so why do I still see your face

Oh I wake up alone knowing I'm on my own again...

There's not a picture left not a stitch of clothes
But there's still something here and I don't believe in ghosts
[ fiddle ] Oh I wake up alone knowing I'm on my own again...
Oh I wake up alone knowing I'm on my own again...
