One day shy of eight years old,
When grandma passed away. I was a broken hearted little boy, Blowing out that birthday cake. How I cried when the sky let go, With a cold lonesome rain. My mom smiled, said: "Don't be sad child. "Grandma's watching you today." [Chorus:] "'cause there's holes in the floor of Heaven, "And her tears are pouring down. "That's how you know she's watching, "Wishing she could be here now. "An' sometimes if you're lonely, "Just remember she can see. "There's holes in the floor of Heaven "And she's watching over you and me." Seasons come and seasons go, Nothing stays the same. I grew up, fell in love, Met a girl who took my name. Year by year, we made a life, In this sleepy little town. I thought we'd grow old together, Lord, I sure do miss her now. [Chorus] Well my little girl is 23, I walk her down the aisle. It's a shame her Mom can't be here now, To see her lovely smile. They throw the rice, I catch her eye, As the rain starts coming down. She takes my hand; says: "Daddy don't be sad, 'cause I know Mama's watching now." [Chorus] Watching over you and me. Watching over you and me. Watching over you and me. |

Two teardrops were floatin' down the river
One teardrop said to the other I'm from the soft blue eyes of a woman in love I'm a tear of joy she couldn't carry She was so happy she just got married I was on her cheek when she wiped me away with her glove I could tell from the look on her face she didn't need me So I drifted on down and caught me a ride to the sea. The other tear said we've got a connection I'm a tear of sorrow born of rejection I'm from the sad brown eyes of her old flame She told him they would be lifelong companions Left him with questions and not any answers I was on his cheek as he stood there calling her name I could tell he had a lot of my friends for company So I drifted on down and caught me a ride to the sea. Oh the ocean's a little bit bigger tonight Two more teardrops somebody cried One of them happy and one of them bluer than blue The tide goes out and the tide comes in And someday they'll be teardrops again Released in a moment of pleasure or a moment of pain Then they drift on down and ride to the sea again. Last night I sat in the waiting room The nurse walked in and gave me the news It's a baby girl and they're both fine An old man sittin' not 10 feet away Just lost his wife and he said to me You've got a brand new angel and I've lost mine I guess the good Lord giveth and the good Lord taketh away And we both wiped a teardrop from our face. Oh the ocean's a little bit bigger tonight Two more teardrops somebody cried One of them happy and one of them bluer than blue The tide goes out and the tide comes in A whole new circle of life begins Where tears are a part of the pleasure and part of the pain 'Til they drift on down and ride to the sea again. Two teardrops floatin' down the river. Two teardrops floatin' down the river... |

Ridin' down the road in her Oldsmobile
Tapping on the floorboard, banging on the wheel, Punchin' ev'ry button on the radio, But everything's too slow. Katie wants a fast one, quicker than the last one. Only two times she gets that rush, is makin' tracks and kickin' up dust. Katie wants a fast one, you know she's got to have one. Cause that's what makes her motor run, Katie wants a fast one! Tearing up the yard on her ridin' mower Neighbor says 'Katie better go a little slower!' Taking every corner up on two wheels That's how she gets her thrills. Katie wants a fast one, quicker than the last one. Only two times she gets that rush, is makin tracks and kickin up dust Katie wants a fast one, you know she's gotta have one. Cause that's what makes her motor run, Katie wants a fast one! Chompin' at the bit in the checkout line Katie's got a thing about wasting time. If she pulls up behind you in the car-pool lane, Just get out of her way! Cause Katie wants a fast one, quicker than the last one. Only two times she gets that rush, is makin' tracks and kickin' up dust Katie wants a fast one, you know she's gotta have one. Cause that's what makes her motor run, Katie wants a fast one! Katie wants a fast one, ooooo, she's gotta have one. |

My little third grade hand wrote
"I love you" on a note of yellow paper, and sent it to the front of the room to a little blonde-haired girl. The blonde-haired girl just opened it, and read it to herself I was so embarrassed when she turned around and said: I'm already taken you spoke up to late I love somebody else, so you'll just have to wait The years flew by so quickly and there we were in junior high I realized that I still loved her so. So I called her up and told her - exactly how I felt Then she said: There's something that you really ought to know: I'm already taken you spoke up to late I love somebody else, so you'll just have to wait So wait I did, and never changed my love for that little blonde-haired girl- who's now the mother of our little blonde-haired boy - who's to our hearts so close I hate to think how fast he's growing up. Last night I overheard them as she tucked him into bed He said: mommy, will you marry me? And this is what she said: I'm already taken you spoke up to late I love your daddy, son, so you'll just have to wait. I'm already taken you spoke up to late I love your daddy, son, so you'll just have to wait... |

It's an old-fashioned feeling
In a world that's gone wild It's a walk by the river On a slow summer night It's the rhythm of love Everywhere I go It's the sound of her voice here in my soul [Chorus:] Every little whisper, every little sigh Every time I hold her I think I'm gonna die Every time her heart beats I know that I'm alive With ever little whisper, every little sigh There's this thing that she does and she don't even know I don't say a word, man I just let her go There's a smile that she saves when she lets her hair down Deep in the night there is only one sound |

If you were the sun
And one day you lost all your light And you disappeared I'd stand in the dark all alone And wait through the night And I'd feel no fear I might not know what to do But you'd shine again like brand new I've got that much faith in you If ever the lights were to go out between us If ever the raindrops should start to fall Should the winds of distrust Ever rock our foundation I know we could weather it all I might not know what to do But I do know we'd make it through I've got that much faith in you And if you were the moon And one night a big black cloud Came and covered your face I'd stand in the rain Like a statue tall and proud Till the clouds blew away I might not know what to do But you'd make the rain roll on through I've got that much faith in you If ever the lights were to go out between us If ever the rain drops should start to fall Should the winds of distrust Ever rock our foundation I know we could weather it all I might not know what to do But I do know we'd make it through I've got that much faith in you... |

Runnin' down the interstate Coffee drippin' down my leg Every day I'm runnin' late Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time. Next lane there's a pick-up A girl puttin' on her make-up Her cellular phone's startin' to break up She's gettin' slapped around by the hands of time. Everybody's runnin' a little late like me The whole world's runnin' behind Can't seem to get where we need to be Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time. Here comes a carpool Mama's got her hands full Six kids all late for school Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time. Just passed the governor's motorcade Must've had a flat tire on the way I guess everybody's got to wait When you're slapped around by the hands of time. Everybody's runnin' a little late like me The whole world's runnin' behind Can't seem to get where we need to be Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time. Well everybody's runnin' a little late like me The whole world's runnin' behind Can't seem to get where we need to be Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time... |

I remember back when I was just a kid A little schoolyard fight And I'd come running home again I'm not really sure what I wanted her to do But my Momma's words would comfort me, I knew And she'd say. Chorus: It's another turn in the road It's another step along the way You can count on me every minute night or day 'Cause if you have someone there for you There is nothing that you can't get through I will help you carry your load When you come to a turn in the road. Those high school days when I thought I was a man Not much time for her but mom would always understand And when I came home broken 'cause I'd been given back my ring She said a little time son, it heals everything. Chorus: It's another turn in the road It's another step along the way You can count on me every minute night or day 'Cause if you have someone there for you There is nothing that you can't get through I will help you carry your load When you come to a turn in the road. Now the tables turned and Mom is on her own Yes, it's been real tough on all of us since daddy's gone And when she says she can't go on missing him for one more day I just hold her close close to me and say. Chorus: It's another turn in the road It's another step along the way You can count on me every minute night or day 'Cause if you have someone there for you There is nothing that you can't get through I will help you carry your load When you come to a turn in the road... |

The crowd is getting restless It's smoky loud and hot The band is heatin' up and Giving everything they've got Somebody check the exts In case a fire breaks out We're packed in tight It's Saturday night And we're burnin' the roadhouse down Chorus: We're burning' it down We're burnin' the roadhouse down The band is in full swing And man there ain't no stoppin' now There'll be nothin' left but ashes When sunday rolls around But that's all right It's saturday night And we're burnin' the roadhouse down Instrumental It's a mob out on the dance floor And the pressure's getting higher One spark from that fiddle bow Could set this place on fire It's so cool to be here In the hottest place in town Feels so right It's Saturday night And we're burnin' the roadhouse down Chorus: We're burning' it down We're burnin' the roadhouse down The band is in full swing And man there ain't no stoppin' now There'll be nothin' left but ashes When sunday rolls around But that's all right It's saturday night And we're burnin' the roadhouse down They'll be sifting through the ashes When sunday rolls around But that's all right It's saturday night And we're burnin' the roadhouse down... |
