2005 “Winning Colors”, Mountain Rock Music Inc.

“Winning Colors”    ------------------- Lo Res   Hi Res

We’ve got the winning colors....red, white, and blue
This land was built....for me and you
We’ll keep working hard....and carry it through
We’ve got the winning colors...red, white, and blue

Sometimes there’s other lands...that don’t like where we stand
But when they’re down and out....we’re there to lend a hand
If they don’t have human rights....for good people working day and night
Look over your shoulder...here comes the stars and stripes.

“Cold, Cold Night”    -------------------   Lo Res   Hi Res
 

Sitting on the front porch, watching the sun go down
Waiting on you to come back from town.
I’ve been thinking how long you been gone
Wanting you back to our mountain home.

On a cold, cold night, with the moon so bright
Loving you makes everything right
Hand in hand, hearts so bright
Warms me up on a cold, cold night.

“Old Love Letters”    --------------------   Lo Res   Hi Res
 

I walked the stairs to my bedroom
Opened up that old dresser drawer
My mind took me back in time
I’m gonna close it up, I can’t take it anymore

I’m not gonna read those old love letters
Not gonna break my heart any more
I’m not gonna read those old love letters
Not gonna let them tear my world apart.

“Give Me One More Song”    --------------

Woke up this morning...turned the radio on
Listened for something for my heart and soul
Heard the DJ talking...about what was happening
All around the town and what was going on
An old song was playing...the words they kept saying
Took me back to many years ago
Now I know what they mean...when I heard the DJ say;

Give me one more song...let's sing along
Listen to the sounds...give me one more song
Give me one more song...let's sing along
Listen to the sounds...give me one more song

“Living On The Edge”    -------------------

I could be living on a planet with nobody else around
I could be standing on a mountain watching another town go down
I wonder in my mind just what it’s all about
Got no friends left standing and my mind is all in doubt
I want to go back in time but I’m living on the edge

I’m living on the edge of my life
Looks like it’s all coming down
Where is the good living?
Don’t we count in our town?
We’re living on the edge

“My Heart Fell At Her Feet”    -------------

I went to put a show on in the mountains
Met a girl that was so neat
After talking a while and walking the creek
I knew she was the girl for me

My heart fell at her feet
My body trembled, I couldn’t speak
With her smile she could melt the heart of a child
My heart fell at her feet

“Living On Credit”    -----------------------

I checked the mail this morning
Many cards were sent to me
I was so happy
Started Jumping up and down and feeling free
I called up my girl
To go shopping downtown
I had enough plastic in my pocket
To turn the whole world around

I'm living on credit
And I'm all maxed out
As long as those cards keep coming
I'll keep spending no doubt

“You Can’t Hold On”   ---------------------

Got a big house and a brand new car
Fences 'round the place and statues in the yard
Having a party, laying around the pool
Friends and neighbors 'round the barbeque
Acting like a fool holding on to you
Music is rocking, making us feel so good

You can't hold on...to what you've got
Unless you work hard...and spend a lot
It's hard to hold on...to what you've got

“Whatever Happened In Your World” -----

I remember when we first met
Hand in hand our dreams were coming true
Never ever wanting to go nowhere
Unless I was walking with you

Whatever happened in your world
I can see it written all over your face
Whatever happened in your world
Seems like your heart is in another place

“Money, Sex, And Rock 'N' Roll”  ----------

I like living with the girls that please my soul
Have plenty of money, that is my goal
Music that is rocking makes me feel good and bold
Flashy cars and dressing so fine
Bright lights a glowing having us a good time
Everybody rocking way beyond bedtime

Money, sex and rock n’ roll
That’s what I need to please my soul

   

“Staying In Touch”  ----------------------

Well it don’t take much
Staying in touch with your friends and buddies
It don’t take much
Staying in touch with all your friends.
Just a keeping in touch.

“What Will The Future Be”  ---------------  
 

What will the future be for the little boys and girls
Somebody please tell me
Will there be laughter, will there be love
Won’t somebody show me what the future will be?

“Money Is The Root Of All Evil”  ------------

Money is the root of all evil
Give me more, more, more
Money is the root of all evil
Give me more, more, more

I need money to buy a house and car
Put food on the table and fix my old guitar
I need money when the tax man comes around
Without money I can’t even shop in town.

    #81 Cash Box Country Single, March 14, 1987

I’ve got a courthouse full of overdue tickets
The judge knows me and he ain’t going to dig it
He told me son you better change your ways
If you mess up again I’m going to send you away
I’ve got to act fast I’ve got to move on the double
Got to get out of town to stay out of trouble

I’m going to ride into the night. I’m going to fly away
I’m going to hide out of sight where no one knows my name

Leaving home with papers in hand
To fight a war that no one understands
Trying to be a man in this strange land
Crawling through the jungle in Vietnam

We salute the boys of Vietnam
We salute the ones that gave it all
We salute the boys of Vietnam
We salute the ones that had to fall

“Something In The Moonlight” ---------------
    #92 Cash Box Country Single, February 16, 1985

Pick my baby up at nine ‘o five
Late tonight we’re going to jump and jive
Something in the moonlight, something in the moonlight
Traveling through the shadows and into the night
Whatever we do, it’s going to be alright
Something in the moonlight, something in the moonlight

Let shine on me, let shine
Let shine on me, let shine on me

“There’s A Different World Inside Of Me”

There's a different world inside of me
There's a different world that you can't see
On the outside it seems I'm free
But there's a different world inside of me

Sometimes I look and Drift and wonder
Searching for thing that I believe
But in my heart I know that they can be
'Cause there's a different world inside of me

“You And Me” -------------------------------
