Have a good one she told me
As she walked away
What a fine time to tell me
To have a nice day
She's gone now but the words she said
Still linger on and on
Have a good one, thought I had one,
I guess I was wrong
She could have said I'm sorry
Or darlin' please don't cry
But now there's tears each time
I hear that cheerful goodbye
It's over but over and over
It echoes all night long
Have a good one, thought I had one,
I guess I was wrong
She could have said I'm sorry
Or darlin' please don't cry
But now there's tears each time
I hear that cheerful goodbye
It's over but over and over
It echoes all night long
Have a good one, thought I had one,
I guess I was wrong
Have a good one, thought I had one,
I guess I was wrong
Walkin' In Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
I've done my share of walkin' out
I've kept your heart in a state of doubt
I'm gonna change, I know I can
There'll be no more walkin' out, I'm walkin' in
I'm walkin' in through that door
I know I've let you down but I ain't gonna do it no more
I'm back to stay to the lovin' end
There'll be no more walkin' out, I'm walkin' in
These shoes of mine have had their day
Of runnin' 'round on you this way
I'll be a better man for where I've been
There'll be no more walkin' out, I'm walkin' in
I'm walkin' in through that door
I know I've let you down but I ain't gonna do it no more
I'm back to stay to the lovin' end
There'll be no more walkin' out, I'm walkin' in
When you hear me knock, don't be alarmed
Just turn that lock and open up your arms
I'm walkin' in through that door
I know I've let you down but I ain't gonna do it no more
I'm back to stay to the lovin' end
There'll be no more walkin' out, I'm walkin' in
There'll be no more walkin' out, I'm walkin' in...
I've kept your heart in a state of doubt
I'm gonna change, I know I can
There'll be no more walkin' out, I'm walkin' in
I'm walkin' in through that door
I know I've let you down but I ain't gonna do it no more
I'm back to stay to the lovin' end
There'll be no more walkin' out, I'm walkin' in
These shoes of mine have had their day
Of runnin' 'round on you this way
I'll be a better man for where I've been
There'll be no more walkin' out, I'm walkin' in
I'm walkin' in through that door
I know I've let you down but I ain't gonna do it no more
I'm back to stay to the lovin' end
There'll be no more walkin' out, I'm walkin' in
When you hear me knock, don't be alarmed
Just turn that lock and open up your arms
I'm walkin' in through that door
I know I've let you down but I ain't gonna do it no more
I'm back to stay to the lovin' end
There'll be no more walkin' out, I'm walkin' in
There'll be no more walkin' out, I'm walkin' in...
The First Step Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
The lights were hot and the beer was not
And the band was playin' loud
The house was full
But her eyes pulled me right cross the crowd
And I said how's a guy like me to get to know you
She said not so fast, let me show you
She said the first step is the two-step
I'm here to dance and nothing more
Swing me 'round that hardwood floor
If you want to run with me, crawl before you walk
The first step is the two-step then we'll talk
We sang along with every song
And the room was spinnin' 'round
We danced in line, she felt so fine
And we hardly hit the ground
So I said maybe we could make a reservation
For some wine with candlelight and conversation
She said the first step is the two-step
I'm here to dance and nothing more
Swing me 'round that hardwood floor
If you want to run with me, crawl before you walk
The first step is the two-step then we'll talk
Well first things first, let's two-step, then we'll talk
And the band was playin' loud
The house was full
But her eyes pulled me right cross the crowd
And I said how's a guy like me to get to know you
She said not so fast, let me show you
She said the first step is the two-step
I'm here to dance and nothing more
Swing me 'round that hardwood floor
If you want to run with me, crawl before you walk
The first step is the two-step then we'll talk
We sang along with every song
And the room was spinnin' 'round
We danced in line, she felt so fine
And we hardly hit the ground
So I said maybe we could make a reservation
For some wine with candlelight and conversation
She said the first step is the two-step
I'm here to dance and nothing more
Swing me 'round that hardwood floor
If you want to run with me, crawl before you walk
The first step is the two-step then we'll talk
Well first things first, let's two-step, then we'll talk
Lifestyles Of The Not So Rich And Famous Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
Honey they're bringin' out a TV crew
They wanna do a story 'bout me and you
They'll be stringin' up bright lights in the backyard
There'll be cameras on their shoulders
We'll be readin' cue cards
Leave them long johns on the line
If the kids look dirty, that'll be just fine
They're gonna put us on
Lifestyles of the not so rich and famous
They wanna see us go hog wild
Over beans and barbecue
They wanna see my Fairlane up on blocks
The holes in all our socks
Talkin' 'bout lifestyles of the not so rich and famous
Tell 'em bout your mama and the bowling league
Tell 'em bout junior and his baseball team
I'll show 'em my nine point buck on the wall
I'll blow a few times on my new duck call
Let 'em see ol' blue how he sleeps all day
We'll bring out the Elvis TV trays
They're gonna put us on
Lifestyles of the not so rich and famous
They wanna see us go hog wild
Over beans and barbecue
They wanna see my Fairlane up on blocks
The holes in all our socks
Talkin' 'bout lifestyles of the not so rich and famous
Yeah our idea of high class livin'
Is sittin' on the porch on a cool night
Our Champagne and Caviar
Is an RC cola and a moon pie
I'm talkin' 'bout lifestyles of the not so rich and famous
Lifestyles of the not so rich and famous
They wanna do a story 'bout me and you
They'll be stringin' up bright lights in the backyard
There'll be cameras on their shoulders
We'll be readin' cue cards
Leave them long johns on the line
If the kids look dirty, that'll be just fine
They're gonna put us on
Lifestyles of the not so rich and famous
They wanna see us go hog wild

They wanna see my Fairlane up on blocks

No Ordinary Man Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
Eight seconds ain't very long to live
But tonight he barely made five
He gave all that he had to give
But the big bull won tonight
He climbs into that old pickup
Black coffee in his hand
Rodeo ain't no ordinary life
But a cowboy ain't no ordinary man
Well he rides just to keep his spirit alive
Makin' money for his wife and kids
He tried other kinds of work
But nothing ever seemed to fit
Oh he loves the smell of a Brahma bull
The feel of leather in his hand
Well Rodeo ain't no ordinay life
But a cowboy ain't no ordinaryman
He's got a gold buckle on his mind
And he don't ride to loose
No matter how bad he hurts
He'll tip his hat to the fans
Rodeo ain't no ordinary
But a cowboy ain't no ordinary man
Well he rides just to keep his spirit alive
Makin' money for his wife and kids
He tried other kinds of work
But nothing ever seemed to fit
Oh he loves the smell of a Brahma bull
The feel of leather in his hand
Well Rodeo ain't no ordinay life
But a cowboy ain't no ordinaryman
He's an extra ordinary man
But tonight he barely made five
He gave all that he had to give
But the big bull won tonight
He climbs into that old pickup
Black coffee in his hand
Rodeo ain't no ordinary life
But a cowboy ain't no ordinary man
Well he rides just to keep his spirit alive
Makin' money for his wife and kids
He tried other kinds of work
But nothing ever seemed to fit
Oh he loves the smell of a Brahma bull
The feel of leather in his hand
Well Rodeo ain't no ordinay life
But a cowboy ain't no ordinaryman
He's got a gold buckle on his mind
And he don't ride to loose
No matter how bad he hurts
He'll tip his hat to the fans
Rodeo ain't no ordinary
But a cowboy ain't no ordinary man
Well he rides just to keep his spirit alive
Makin' money for his wife and kids
He tried other kinds of work
But nothing ever seemed to fit
Oh he loves the smell of a Brahma bull
The feel of leather in his hand
Well Rodeo ain't no ordinay life
But a cowboy ain't no ordinaryman
He's an extra ordinary man
Anybody Else's Heart But Mine Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
She's history
Don't ruin good beer with tears
Get up off those knees
She ain't coming back, Jack
And if you think she will
You're on the wrong track
Hearts get broken every day
And life goes on without her here
It would be so clear if only it was
Anybody else's heart but mine
I'd say hey, that's the breaks
It'll mend in time
I'd know just what to do
If it was anybody else's blues
If it was anybody else's heart, but mine
Hey, what's goin' on
It's a little bit different
When it's my love that's gone
Now old platitudes
Like find somebody else
Now they just won't do
I was so wise when givin' free advice
To every body else
But now hearing it myself I wish that it was
Anybody else's heart but mine
I'd say hey, that's the breaks
It'll mend in time
I'd know just what to do
If it was anybody else's blues
If it was anybody else's heart, but mine
Anybody else's heart but mine
I'd say hey, that's the breaks
It'll mend in time
I'd know just what to do
If it was anybody else's blues
If it was anybody else's heart, but mine...
Don't ruin good beer with tears
Get up off those knees
She ain't coming back, Jack
And if you think she will
You're on the wrong track
Hearts get broken every day
And life goes on without her here
It would be so clear if only it was
Anybody else's heart but mine
I'd say hey, that's the breaks
It'll mend in time
I'd know just what to do
If it was anybody else's blues
If it was anybody else's heart, but mine
Hey, what's goin' on
It's a little bit different
When it's my love that's gone
Now old platitudes
Like find somebody else
Now they just won't do
I was so wise when givin' free advice
To every body else
But now hearing it myself I wish that it was
Anybody else's heart but mine
I'd say hey, that's the breaks
It'll mend in time
I'd know just what to do
If it was anybody else's blues
If it was anybody else's heart, but mine
Anybody else's heart but mine
I'd say hey, that's the breaks
It'll mend in time
I'd know just what to do
If it was anybody else's blues
If it was anybody else's heart, but mine...
Watermelon Crawl Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
I was drivin' through Georgia in late July
On a day hot enough to make the devil sigh
I saw a homemade sign writtin' in red
Rhine county watermelon festival ahead
Well, I wasn't in a hurry so I slowed down
Took a two lane road to a one horse town
There was a party goin' on when I got there
I heard a welcome speech from a small town mayor
He said we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine
Made from the biggest watermelons on the vine
Help yourself to some, but obey the law if you drink
Don't drive do the watermelon crawl
When the band started playin the watermelon queen
Said let me show you somethin' that you ain't ever seen
She grabbed me by the arm said come on lets go
She dipped down, spun around, and do-ce-doed
She rocked back on her heels dropped down to her knees
She craweled across the floor and jumped back to her feet
She wiggled and she giggled and be all you ever saw
She said this is how you do the watermelon crawl
He said we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine
Made from the biggest watermelons on the vine
Help yourself to some, but obey the law if you drink
Don't drive do the watermelon crawl
If your ever down in georgia around about july
If you ain't in a hurry then you aw to stop by
I can guarantee that you're goin have a ball
Learnin' how to do the watermelon crawl
He said we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine
Made from the biggest watermelons on the vine
Help yourself to some, but obey the law if you drink
Don't drive do the watermelon crawl
Yeah do the watermelon crawl
Have fun you all
Do the watermelon crawl
On a day hot enough to make the devil sigh
I saw a homemade sign writtin' in red
Rhine county watermelon festival ahead
Well, I wasn't in a hurry so I slowed down
Took a two lane road to a one horse town
There was a party goin' on when I got there
I heard a welcome speech from a small town mayor
He said we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine
Made from the biggest watermelons on the vine
Help yourself to some, but obey the law if you drink
Don't drive do the watermelon crawl
When the band started playin the watermelon queen
Said let me show you somethin' that you ain't ever seen
She grabbed me by the arm said come on lets go
She dipped down, spun around, and do-ce-doed
She rocked back on her heels dropped down to her knees
She craweled across the floor and jumped back to her feet
She wiggled and she giggled and be all you ever saw
She said this is how you do the watermelon crawl
He said we got a hundred gallons of sweet red wine

Help yourself to some, but obey the law if you drink

The Keeper Of The Stars Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew
Now I just can't believe you're in my life
Heaven's smilin' down on me
As I look at you tonight
I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin'
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
I've got all I'll ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars
Soft moonlight on your face oh how you shine
It takes my breath away
Just to look into your eyes
I know I don't deserve a treasure like you
There really are no words
To show my gratitude
So I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin'
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
I've got all I'll ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars
It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew
Now I just can't believe you're in my life
Heaven's smilin' down on me
As I look at you tonight
I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin'
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
I've got all I'll ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars
Soft moonlight on your face oh how you shine
It takes my breath away
Just to look into your eyes
I know I don't deserve a treasure like you
There really are no words
To show my gratitude
So I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars
He sure knew what he was doin'
When he joined these two hearts
I hold everything
When I hold you in my arms
I've got all I'll ever need
Thanks to the keeper of the stars
It was no accident me finding you
Someone had a hand in it
Long before we ever knew
You Never Know Just How Good You've Got It Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
Hey once I was a honky tonkin' talk of the town
Ridin' high in my bad Chevrolet
I had seven pretty women Lord hanging on me
A different one for every day
But look at me now all my women's left town
And a buck is getting hard to come by
Well I must confess my life's a big mess
I'm so low I could lay down and die
Well you never know just how good you've got it
Till you ain't got it no more
You never know just how high you're flying
Till you fall face down on the floor
All I can do is just moan the blues
And dream about what I had before
Hey you never know just how good you've got it
Till you ain't got it no more
Here lately I've become one pool sharkin' fool
Make my living on the buddies of mine
I was cookin' last night when the chips were all down
So I laid everything I had on the line
I knew I'd regret that hundred dollar bet
But you never learn until it's too late
We flipped and I lost and then I paid the cost
When the eight fell in on the break
Well you never know just how good you've got it
Till you ain't got it no more
You never know just how high you're flying
Till you fall face down on the floor
All I can do is just moan the blues
And dream about what I had before
Hey you never know just how good you've got it
Till you ain't got it no more
No you never know just how good you've got it
Till you ain't got it no more
Ridin' high in my bad Chevrolet
I had seven pretty women Lord hanging on me
A different one for every day
But look at me now all my women's left town
And a buck is getting hard to come by
Well I must confess my life's a big mess
I'm so low I could lay down and die
Well you never know just how good you've got it
Till you ain't got it no more
You never know just how high you're flying
Till you fall face down on the floor
All I can do is just moan the blues
And dream about what I had before
Hey you never know just how good you've got it
Till you ain't got it no more
Here lately I've become one pool sharkin' fool
Make my living on the buddies of mine
I was cookin' last night when the chips were all down
So I laid everything I had on the line
I knew I'd regret that hundred dollar bet
But you never learn until it's too late
We flipped and I lost and then I paid the cost
When the eight fell in on the break
Well you never know just how good you've got it
Till you ain't got it no more
You never know just how high you're flying
Till you fall face down on the floor
All I can do is just moan the blues
And dream about what I had before
Hey you never know just how good you've got it
Till you ain't got it no more
No you never know just how good you've got it
Till you ain't got it no more
Redneck Roses Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
Not so long ago
On his way home from work
He'd stop by the side of the road
Step out of that old beat up ford
That he drove
And he'd walk around
Searchin' the ground
For a handful of wildflower blooms
Thinkin' of where he'd be soon
There with her
She called them redneck roses
'Cause that's what they were
A simple gift of love
From a country boy to his girl
She called them redneck roses
They didn't cost a dime
But they brought a smile to her face
Every time
Now it's years down the line
She sits home alone
It's the usual end of the day
Once again, he's still workin' late
And never calls
They've hot a house on a hill
No problems with bills
And a baby that's on the way
But her heart longs for those yesterdays
and his love
She called them redneck roses
'Cause that's what they were
A simple gift of love
From a country boy to his girl
She called them redneck roses
They didn't cost a dime
But they brought a smile to her face
Every time
The could still put a smile on her face
If he only had the time
On his way home from work
He'd stop by the side of the road
Step out of that old beat up ford
That he drove
And he'd walk around
Searchin' the ground
For a handful of wildflower blooms
Thinkin' of where he'd be soon
There with her
She called them redneck roses
'Cause that's what they were
A simple gift of love
From a country boy to his girl
She called them redneck roses
They didn't cost a dime
But they brought a smile to her face
Every time
Now it's years down the line
She sits home alone
It's the usual end of the day
Once again, he's still workin' late
And never calls
They've hot a house on a hill
No problems with bills
And a baby that's on the way
But her heart longs for those yesterdays
and his love
She called them redneck roses
'Cause that's what they were
A simple gift of love
From a country boy to his girl
She called them redneck roses
They didn't cost a dime
But they brought a smile to her face
Every time
The could still put a smile on her face
If he only had the time
Right About Now Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
Right about now she's brushin' her hair
Slipppin' on her gown, wishin' I was there
She just hates these lonely nights when I'm gone
Right about now she's turnin' back the sheets
Asking God to watch over me
She'd never dream what I'm thinkin' about right about now
Right about now temptation's knockin' on my door
I'm one step away from doin' what I've never done before
I can hear the Devil Whisper, "Go ahead, she'll never find out"
But, if I did her wrong I could never feel right about now
Right about now she's reachin' for the phone
She knows it's me calling home
I can almost see the smile on her face
Right about now if she only knew
What a lonely man could do
It would break her heart in two right about now
Right about now temptation's knockin' on my door
I'm one step away from doin' what I've never done before
I can hear the Devil Whisper, "Go ahead, she'll never find out"
But, if I did her wrong I could never feel right about now
Slipppin' on her gown, wishin' I was there
She just hates these lonely nights when I'm gone
Right about now she's turnin' back the sheets
Asking God to watch over me
She'd never dream what I'm thinkin' about right about now
Right about now temptation's knockin' on my door
I'm one step away from doin' what I've never done before
I can hear the Devil Whisper, "Go ahead, she'll never find out"
But, if I did her wrong I could never feel right about now
Right about now she's reachin' for the phone
She knows it's me calling home
I can almost see the smile on her face
Right about now if she only knew
What a lonely man could do
It would break her heart in two right about now
Right about now temptation's knockin' on my door
I'm one step away from doin' what I've never done before
I can hear the Devil Whisper, "Go ahead, she'll never find out"
But, if I did her wrong I could never feel right about now
Pink Flamingos Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
I was a rebel in my younger years
I'd.....drink with the devil if he bought the beer
Wore out two pick-ups just running around
Mamma thought I never would settle down
That was before I met sweet Irma Jean
She made a new man outta me
We got pink flamingos in the front yard
Picture window with a view of Wal-mart
Blue collar heaven...domestic bliss
It just doesn't get better than this
We got pink flamingos, pink flamingos, pink flamingos
Sweet Irma Jean is a den mother now
With a station wagon and an charge account
Bubba Junior pitches for his baseball team
Little sister's running for Rose Bud Queen
And me I'm doing good at the used car lot
Is this a great country or what
We got pink flamingos in the front yard
Picture window with a view of Wal-mart
Blue collar heaven...domestic bliss
It just doesn't get better than this
We got pink flamingos, pink flamingos, pink flamingos
People slow down when they drive by
They wave and smile but there's envy in their eyes
We ain't rich and won't be for a while
But no doubt about it we got style
We got pink flamingos in the front yard
Picture window with a view of Wal-mart
Blue collar heaven...domestic bliss
It just doesn't get better than this
We got pink flamingos, pink flamingos, pink flamingos
I'd.....drink with the devil if he bought the beer
Wore out two pick-ups just running around
Mamma thought I never would settle down
That was before I met sweet Irma Jean
She made a new man outta me
We got pink flamingos in the front yard
Picture window with a view of Wal-mart
Blue collar heaven...domestic bliss
It just doesn't get better than this
We got pink flamingos, pink flamingos, pink flamingos
Sweet Irma Jean is a den mother now
With a station wagon and an charge account
Bubba Junior pitches for his baseball team
Little sister's running for Rose Bud Queen
And me I'm doing good at the used car lot
Is this a great country or what
We got pink flamingos in the front yard
Picture window with a view of Wal-mart
Blue collar heaven...domestic bliss
It just doesn't get better than this
We got pink flamingos, pink flamingos, pink flamingos
People slow down when they drive by
They wave and smile but there's envy in their eyes
We ain't rich and won't be for a while
But no doubt about it we got style
We got pink flamingos in the front yard
Picture window with a view of Wal-mart
Blue collar heaven...domestic bliss
It just doesn't get better than this
We got pink flamingos, pink flamingos, pink flamingos
That's The Thing About A Memory Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
Well I woke up this mornin'
And I was feelin' fine
But with my first cup of coffee
Came the last thing on my mind
It hung around uninvited
The whole day through
It didn't care that I'd been trying
To keep from missing you
That's the thing about a memory
It's got a mind of its own
It can take an old flame
And chill you to the bone
Just when you think it's long gone
It'll roll back around
But that's the thing about a memory
When it comes to misery
It'll never let you down
I already know that it's not welcome
It's just a fair weather friend
Who wants to be reminded
Of things that might've been
It don't matter if I'm drivin'
Or walkin' down the street
It's never far behind
It does it every time
It knocks me off my feet
That's the thing about a memory
It's got a mind of its own
It can take an old flame
And chill you to the bone
Just when you think it's long gone
It'll roll back around
That's the thing about a memory
When it comes to misery
It'll never let you down
Yeah that's the thing about a memory
When it comes to misery
It'll never let you down
And I was feelin' fine
But with my first cup of coffee
Came the last thing on my mind
It hung around uninvited
The whole day through
It didn't care that I'd been trying
To keep from missing you
That's the thing about a memory
It's got a mind of its own
It can take an old flame
And chill you to the bone
Just when you think it's long gone
It'll roll back around
But that's the thing about a memory
When it comes to misery
It'll never let you down
I already know that it's not welcome
It's just a fair weather friend
Who wants to be reminded
Of things that might've been
It don't matter if I'm drivin'
Or walkin' down the street
It's never far behind
It does it every time
It knocks me off my feet
That's the thing about a memory
It's got a mind of its own
It can take an old flame
And chill you to the bone
Just when you think it's long gone
It'll roll back around
That's the thing about a memory
When it comes to misery
It'll never let you down
Yeah that's the thing about a memory
When it comes to misery
It'll never let you down
Back In The Swing Of Things Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
Well I was really feeling down
I'd really been uptight
About to lose my mind
When I came in here tonight
Things have turned around
Since they turned the jukebox on
I laid my money down
And somebody played my song
And I'm back in the swing of things
An amazing change takes place
When I hear them twin fiddles play
Oh there's a difference of daylight
And dark in my heart over music
Chases my blues away
When those playboys are playing
I'm feeling no pain
I'm back in the swing of things
I'm back in the swing of things
Say would you like to dance
And join me in the fun
Here's your one big chance
'Cause the night is almost done
Girl can you believe
How good it makes you feel
I have to pinch myself sometimes
To find out if it's real
And I'm back in the swing of things
An amazing change takes place
When I hear them twin fiddles play
Oh there's a difference of daylight
And dark in my heart over music
Chases my blues away
When those playboys are playing
I'm feeling no pain
I'm back in the swing of things
I'm back in the swing of things
I'm back in the swing
I'm back in the swing of things
I'd really been uptight
About to lose my mind
When I came in here tonight
Things have turned around
Since they turned the jukebox on
I laid my money down
And somebody played my song
And I'm back in the swing of things
An amazing change takes place
When I hear them twin fiddles play
Oh there's a difference of daylight
And dark in my heart over music
Chases my blues away
When those playboys are playing
I'm feeling no pain
I'm back in the swing of things
I'm back in the swing of things
Say would you like to dance
And join me in the fun
Here's your one big chance
'Cause the night is almost done
Girl can you believe
How good it makes you feel
I have to pinch myself sometimes
To find out if it's real
And I'm back in the swing of things
An amazing change takes place
When I hear them twin fiddles play
Oh there's a difference of daylight
And dark in my heart over music
Chases my blues away
When those playboys are playing
I'm feeling no pain
I'm back in the swing of things
I'm back in the swing of things
I'm back in the swing
I'm back in the swing of things
Someone To Give My Love To Lyrics – Tracy Byrd (originally by Johnny Paycheck)
Well I could search from now till the end of time
And never find another you
I'm so glad because I know you're mine
Someone to give my love to
I believe my love that you're one of a kind
For there's no one else like you
You're the light of my life so let it shine
Someone to give my love to
I find that happiness is loving you
And I'll do my best to make your dreams come true
I will follow you to the end of the earth
For my place will be with you
Now I have taken you for better or worse
Someone to give my love to
Yeah I find that happiness is loving you
And I'll do my best to make your dreams come true
Days of man and wife time are precious few
I will spend them all with you
For in beyond forever I'll wait for you
Someone to give my love to
Mmm...
And never find another you
I'm so glad because I know you're mine
Someone to give my love to
I believe my love that you're one of a kind
For there's no one else like you
You're the light of my life so let it shine
Someone to give my love to
I find that happiness is loving you
And I'll do my best to make your dreams come true
I will follow you to the end of the earth
For my place will be with you
Now I have taken you for better or worse
Someone to give my love to
Yeah I find that happiness is loving you
And I'll do my best to make your dreams come true
Days of man and wife time are precious few
I will spend them all with you
For in beyond forever I'll wait for you
Someone to give my love to
Mmm...
Holdin' Heaven Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
I'm face to face with an angel
How'd you get those eyes so blue
You're a vision in white and I been waitin' all night
Just to have one dance with you now all my dreams are comin' true.
I'm holdin' heaven in my arms tonight
Everything about you is so perfectly right
I've never been there but I think
I might be holdin' heaven in my arms tonight.
I'm not sure where you came from
But I thank my lucky stars above
And I got the chance to have a dance
But one dance just ain't enough I think I'm fallin' in love.
I'm holdin' heaven in my arms tonight
Everything about you is so perfectly right
I've never been there but I think
I might be holdin' heaven in my arms tonight.
I'm holdin' heaven in my arms tonight
Everything about you is so perfectly right
I've never been there but I think
I might be holdin' heaven in my arms tonight.
I'm holdin' heaven in my arms tonight...
How'd you get those eyes so blue
You're a vision in white and I been waitin' all night
Just to have one dance with you now all my dreams are comin' true.
I'm holdin' heaven in my arms tonight
Everything about you is so perfectly right
I've never been there but I think
I might be holdin' heaven in my arms tonight.
I'm not sure where you came from
But I thank my lucky stars above
And I got the chance to have a dance
But one dance just ain't enough I think I'm fallin' in love.
I'm holdin' heaven in my arms tonight
Everything about you is so perfectly right
I've never been there but I think
I might be holdin' heaven in my arms tonight.
I'm holdin' heaven in my arms tonight
Everything about you is so perfectly right
I've never been there but I think
I might be holdin' heaven in my arms tonight.
I'm holdin' heaven in my arms tonight...
Why Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
Where in a barroom when last night
What was I doing I was holding someone tight
Who oh just someone who didn't mean a thing
How well I just slipped off my wedding ring.
Why I don't know, I didn't mean to hurt you
I don't wanna see you go
Girl you know me well enough to know that I don't lie
And I can answer every question but why.
Where at her place when around closing time
What were we drinking tequila salt and lime
Who but a fool like me could hurt someone like you
How can you forgive me for all I've put you through.
Oh why I don't know, I didn't mean to hurt you
I don't wanna see you go
Girl you know me well enough to know that I don't lie
And I can answer every question but why.
I can answer every question but why...
What was I doing I was holding someone tight
Who oh just someone who didn't mean a thing
How well I just slipped off my wedding ring.
Why I don't know, I didn't mean to hurt you
I don't wanna see you go
Girl you know me well enough to know that I don't lie
And I can answer every question but why.
Where at her place when around closing time
What were we drinking tequila salt and lime
Who but a fool like me could hurt someone like you
How can you forgive me for all I've put you through.
Oh why I don't know, I didn't mean to hurt you
I don't wanna see you go
Girl you know me well enough to know that I don't lie
And I can answer every question but why.
I can answer every question but why...
An Out Of Control Raging Fire Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
Today an old heartache came calling
An old flame I thought died out like some falling star
Instead it's rekindling some memories
That may start an out of control raging fire
That look in your eyes brings back memories
You still have that same smile that once won my heart
The bittersweet feelings still linger
That once fueled our out of control raging fire
An out of control raging fire
Pain has no memory when you burn with desire
The flames grow higher and higher
Till we've reached an out of control raging fire
Inside us the passion is burning
It's too late to stop what we've started tonight
How can we resist this temptation
To restart an out of control raging fire
An out of control raging fire
Pain has no memory when you burn with desire
The flames grow higher and higher
Till we've reached an out of control raging fire
Yes we've reached an out of control raging fire
An old flame I thought died out like some falling star
Instead it's rekindling some memories
That may start an out of control raging fire
That look in your eyes brings back memories
You still have that same smile that once won my heart
The bittersweet feelings still linger
That once fueled our out of control raging fire
An out of control raging fire
Pain has no memory when you burn with desire
The flames grow higher and higher
Till we've reached an out of control raging fire
Inside us the passion is burning
It's too late to stop what we've started tonight
How can we resist this temptation
To restart an out of control raging fire
An out of control raging fire
Pain has no memory when you burn with desire
The flames grow higher and higher
Till we've reached an out of control raging fire
Yes we've reached an out of control raging fire
Hat Trick Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
You packed up all my clothes
And put 'em by the door
Is this your way of telling me
I don't live here anymore.
You've gone and called a cab
And told me where to go
Two hearts that used to be on fire
Have just gone up in smoke.
Now I ain't no magician
Can't change the way things are
I can't make you love me
If it's not in the cards.
I can't wave a magic wand
And make you want me near
But I can do a hat trick
I'll put it on and disappear.
Now I ain't gonna crawl
And I won't jump through hoops
To try and make you love me
Like I used to do.
You've pulled this stunt before
And I kept holdin' on
But this time when you close the door
Look around and I'll be gone.
Now I ain't no magician
Can't change the way things are
I can't make you love me
If it's not in the cards.
I can't wave a magic wand
And make you want me near
But I can do a hat trick
I'll put it on and disappear.
So I'll just do my hat trick
I'll put it on and disappear...
And put 'em by the door
Is this your way of telling me
I don't live here anymore.
You've gone and called a cab
And told me where to go
Two hearts that used to be on fire
Have just gone up in smoke.
Now I ain't no magician
Can't change the way things are
I can't make you love me
If it's not in the cards.
I can't wave a magic wand
And make you want me near
But I can do a hat trick
I'll put it on and disappear.
Now I ain't gonna crawl
And I won't jump through hoops
To try and make you love me
Like I used to do.
You've pulled this stunt before
And I kept holdin' on
But this time when you close the door
Look around and I'll be gone.
Now I ain't no magician
Can't change the way things are
I can't make you love me
If it's not in the cards.
I can't wave a magic wand
And make you want me near
But I can do a hat trick
I'll put it on and disappear.
So I'll just do my hat trick
I'll put it on and disappear...
Why Don't That Telephone Ring Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
I had the operator call me back
She said my phone is working fine
I hear in Louisville it's almost dawn
But it's 2 a.m. Pacific time.
I thought sure she would've called by now
To tell me all about that wild and crazy LA scene
Well, I know my number's in her book
Why don't that telephone ring?
Don't she know I'm anxiously waiting
Longing for her long distance call
I wish I knew what her silence is saying
If my love means anything
Why don't that telephone ring?
She's always had this distant dream
I said go make it come true
And you know whatever's in the cards
I'll be right here for you.
But that's been too long ago
And now I just don't know
If I'm still a part of her dream
If I ever cross her mind at all
Why don't that telephone ring?
Don't she know I'm anxiously waiting
Longing for her long distance call
I wish I knew what her silence is saying
If my love means anything
Why don't that telephone ring?...
She said my phone is working fine
I hear in Louisville it's almost dawn
But it's 2 a.m. Pacific time.
I thought sure she would've called by now
To tell me all about that wild and crazy LA scene
Well, I know my number's in her book
Why don't that telephone ring?
Don't she know I'm anxiously waiting
Longing for her long distance call
I wish I knew what her silence is saying
If my love means anything
Why don't that telephone ring?
She's always had this distant dream
I said go make it come true
And you know whatever's in the cards
I'll be right here for you.
But that's been too long ago
And now I just don't know
If I'm still a part of her dream
If I ever cross her mind at all
Why don't that telephone ring?
Don't she know I'm anxiously waiting
Longing for her long distance call
I wish I knew what her silence is saying
If my love means anything
Why don't that telephone ring?...
Edge Of A Memory Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
All at once here I am in this barroom
Oh and most any night I'd be home
But those old thoughts of her
Are beginning to stir
I need to be anywhere but alone
When you close you can call me a taxi
Until then you can call me a fool
So just bring a glass and don't bring up the past
If you did I don't know what I'd do
I'm right on the edge of memory
Lord knows I don't wanna fall
'Cause it tells me she'll always be gone
And reminds me where I went wrong
Yeah I'm right on the edge of a memory
And just hanging on
So bartender just keep 'em coming
Till she and I go out of my mind
Tonight I refuse to take on the blues
I'll just put off the truth till closing time
I'm right on the edge of memory
Lord knows I don't wanna fall
'Cause it tells me she'll always be gone
And reminds me where I went wrong
Yeah I'm right on the edge of a memory
And just hanging on
Yeah I'm right on the edge of a memory
And just hanging on
Oh and most any night I'd be home
But those old thoughts of her
Are beginning to stir
I need to be anywhere but alone
When you close you can call me a taxi
Until then you can call me a fool
So just bring a glass and don't bring up the past
If you did I don't know what I'd do
I'm right on the edge of memory
Lord knows I don't wanna fall
'Cause it tells me she'll always be gone
And reminds me where I went wrong
Yeah I'm right on the edge of a memory
And just hanging on
So bartender just keep 'em coming
Till she and I go out of my mind
Tonight I refuse to take on the blues
I'll just put off the truth till closing time
I'm right on the edge of memory
Lord knows I don't wanna fall
'Cause it tells me she'll always be gone
And reminds me where I went wrong
Yeah I'm right on the edge of a memory
And just hanging on
Yeah I'm right on the edge of a memory
And just hanging on
Why Don't That Telephone Ring Lyrics – Tracy Byrd
It's lonely out tonight down here in Georgia
And the oldest friend I've got I met today
The womon that I love just up and left me
And the place I love's a thousand miles away.
Operator hook me up to Houston get me anybody on the phone
Look there in your book and pick a number
'Cause you can't be choosy when you're this alone
Won't you talk to me Texas let me hear that draw
I spent my last five dollars on this one long distance call.
Won't you talk to me Texas
I got these homesick blues
Tell me I can come on home to you.
I got this faded number in my wallet
It's been in here a couple of years I know
I used to call it up when I was lonely
Hey Lord, that women sure could love me so.
I know by now she's probably changed her number
With my luck she's probably changed her name
If there's a chance in hell I think I'll take it
'Cause I'd love to hear that woman's voice again.
Won't you talk to me Texas
I got these homesick blues
Tell me I can come on home to you.
Won't you talk to me Texas
I got these homesick blues
Tell me I can come on home to you...
And the oldest friend I've got I met today
The womon that I love just up and left me
And the place I love's a thousand miles away.
Operator hook me up to Houston get me anybody on the phone
Look there in your book and pick a number
'Cause you can't be choosy when you're this alone
Won't you talk to me Texas let me hear that draw
I spent my last five dollars on this one long distance call.
Won't you talk to me Texas
I got these homesick blues
Tell me I can come on home to you.
I got this faded number in my wallet
It's been in here a couple of years I know
I used to call it up when I was lonely
Hey Lord, that women sure could love me so.
I know by now she's probably changed her number
With my luck she's probably changed her name
If there's a chance in hell I think I'll take it
'Cause I'd love to hear that woman's voice again.
Won't you talk to me Texas
I got these homesick blues
Tell me I can come on home to you.
Won't you talk to me Texas
I got these homesick blues
Tell me I can come on home to you...
