    I walked in, and there he was on the stage
    The right looks, the right size, the right age
    I'm so burned out on good-looking guys
    I won't even let 'em catch my eye
    I went to the bar, and I got me a beer
    The band started playing, I didn't care
    I changed my mind
    When he started singing his song

    It wasn't love at first sight
    But, thank God, I Looked Twice
    I looked below the surface
    And I liked what I saw
    I've had my share of tight fitting jeans
    Had my share of late night scenes
    It wasn't love at first sight
    But I Looked Twice

    The band took a break, he walked up to me
    He had charm, he had mmm, he got me
    He knew just what to say and how to say it
    He said I'm his favorite song and he's gonna play it
    I found out what we've got in common
    A deep-seated need to share good loving
    Now I'm his lady
    And he's my Mister Right

    It wasn't love at first sight
    But, thank God, I Looked Twice
    I looked below the surface
    And I liked what I saw
    I've had my share of tight fitting jeans
    Had my share of late night scenes
    It wasn't love at first sight
    But I Looked Twice

    We're Julia Roberts
    And Richard Gere

    What I feel for you

    What I feel for you
    Is Beyond Love

    This is an FLR
    Can be no other way
    You're my teacher
    My dominatrix
    Til death do we part
    Then the other side
    I'll be waiting
    Justified

    What I feel for you
    Is Beyond Love
    Beyond anything

    This is song #5 with Annie Bushmeyer. It's practice for her to learn the songs.
    We'll start laying fresh tracks at Direct Image Studio on September 30.

    Got to find a label.


    ALL ROADS LEAD TO YOU

    I can travel the world, circle the globe
    Take a trip to Mars
    Wear myself out on a lost highway
    Reaching for the stars
    A million men may want me
    But, baby, I'll be true
    And I'll be there when you need me
    Cos All Roads Lead To You

    Sometimes I feel like I've been down
    Every dead-end street
    I pick myself up, make a U-turn
    Get back on my feet
    If the lights are green and the skies are blue
    Honey, I'll get through
    And I'll be there when you need me
    Cos All Roads Lead To You

    If there's a way home, I'll find it
    Let your love light burn until then
    I'll make my way through this traffic
    To be in your arms again

    Solo

    I can travel the world, circle the globe
    Take a trip to Mars
    Wear myself out on a lost highway
    Reaching for the stars
    A million men may want me
    But, baby, I'll be true
    And I'll be there when you need me
    Cos All Roads Lead To You
    I'll be there when you need me
    Cos All Roads Lead To You
    All Roads Lead To You

    Annie and I signed with Allen Willemsen and 29:11 Promotions. Annie has an artist deal. I have a staff writer deal. I'm doing an album with Annie. We'll be at Direct Image Recording Studio in Nashville on September 30 to lay the first tracks. Allen said it will be the second year in which he gets Annie on a label. That gives us plenty of time. The main thing is to do the best album we can.

  5. Out of the blue
    You came from nowhere
    I looked up one day
    And you were there

    I Believe In You
    I think you're the first
    to feed this hunger
    To quench my thirst

    What about God
    Did he send you here
    As a last resort
    It's all becoming clear

    I Believe In You
    I think you're the last
    To satisfy these needs
    Lead me out of the past

    Somebody called it a leap of faith
    Your worth, I could never estimate

    music

    So many years
    Waiting for someone
    Burned so many times
    The hurtin's all done

    I Believe In You
    I think you're the first
    to feed this hunger
    To quench my thirst
    I Believe In You
    I think you're the last
    To satisfy these needs
    Lead me out of my past

    These doubting ways all through
    I Believe In You

  6. I feel strong
    When I'm around you
    I feel weak
    When you're not here
    You're an energy source
    A power source
    You're the electricity
    You always were

    You're an Energy Source
    Like the sun itself
    Like the Big Bang
    Cosmic background radiation
    You're a power source
    You're the impetus
    It begins with you
    You're my single motivation

    You're such a
    Resolute woman
    The kind who
    Disciplines her man
    Keeps him moving forward
    Straight and narrow
    I'm just rubbish without you
    A garbage can

    You're an Energy Source
    Like the sun itself
    Like the Big Bang
    Cosmic background radiation
    You're a power source
    You're the impetus
    It begins with you
    You're my single motivation

    You're a hydroelectric dam
    Got me saying 'Yes, ma'am!"

    You're an Energy Source
    Like the sun itself
    Like the Big Bang

    You're a power source

    He's a singer
    When he opens his mouth
    The words flow like a river
    Some people say
    He's got a God Given Talent
    He's a dead ringer
    For Billy Ray Cyrus
    The way he looked in '93
    He's got a God Given Talent for loving me

    He's got rhythm
    When he plays his guitar
    The girls scream and holler for more
    You can say it's a gift
    He was born for stardom
    I live with him
    I know him better than anyone
    I know how good he can be
    He's got a God Given Talent for loving me

    He could have a lot of women
    A different girl every night
    He makes his way back to me
    When they turn out the lights

    We've got a future
    Money in the bank
    And a home out in the country
    We'll be together
    Long after the music's been played
    He's a natural
    When he takes me in his arms
    He makes it look so easy
    He's got a God Given Talent for loving me

  10. http://www.cmt.com/news/country-music/1728023/little-big-town-splatter-the-stage-at-2014-cmt-music-awards.jhtml

    Like a bottle of champagne that was shaken just a bit too much, Little Big Town sprayed the CMT Music Awards stage with a rainbow of colors on Wednesday night (June 4).

    The special occasion? The band's newest single, "Day Drinking."

    At the beginning of the performance, Little Big Town's four members were dressed completely in white, as were the backing musicians. During a suspenseful pause, suddenly the large drums became the focal point and colorful liquid was splashing everywhere. At the end of it, Kimberly Schlapman looked like a smiling piece of pink bubble gum.

    The artistic production was a well-kept secret. During a backstage visit with Cody Alan the day before the awards, Karen Fairchild told him, "We've been working on this a long time. And the CMT Awards are like a good luck charm for this band. I mean, two years in a row, we have had magical moments on this stage. So, I don't want to give anything away."

    Fairchild takes lead vocals on the track, which is the first single from the band's new album due this fall. The band announced the album on their website last week although no title has been revealed. They recently filmed a music video for "Day Drinking" in Watertown, Tenn.

    "We wrote this with our buddies Barry Dean and Troy Verges and had such a good time writing that day that it seemed to carry over into the spirit of the song," stated Jimi Westbrook. "It makes me think about those summer days when all that's on the agenda is hanging out, relaxing and having a good time with friends. So, if that's your plan, here's your song! 'Why don't we do a little day drinking?'"

    I put Annie's vocal on yesterday at ascap. She moved the lyrics around, so it's taking me a while to get used to this. I'm even pitching the song under a slightly different title. I want Annie to perform my songs with her band and also for youtube, so that means I have to meet her halfway. This is our second song. One more, and I'll submit them to ascap's Creative Services. It used to be that I could get an appointment with a writer rep right away. Now, the staff screens songs before giving appointments. Nothing is easy. I may be crazy for trying to do this at 68, but music has me by the balls. I sang karaoke last night until I was so exhausted I barely remember driving home. I'm waiting for a new CD from Little Big Town while trying to find Annie a record deal and myself a publishing deal.


    SO COUNTRY I COULD DIE

    I know every song Reba ever sang
    I can't resist that good old country twang
    I wave my flag every 4th of July
    I feel So Country I could Die

    Done every line dance, square dance, and two-step do-si-do
    When I step out, I dress in western clothes
    An American girl looking up to the sky
    I feel So Country I Could Die

    Well, I'm looking for a man who's looking for a girl
    Who knows just how she feels
    I'm looking for a man who's looking for a girl
    Who's looking for something real

    I grew up on a farm
    I learned how to live in the south
    Come on, city boy, I'll show you how
    When I love a man, I never say goodbye
    I feel So Country I Could Die
    Oh yeah

    solo

    I'm looking for a man who's looking for a girl

    Who's looking for something real

    I grew up on a farm
    I learned how to live in the south
    Come on, city boy, I'll show you how
    When I love a man, I never say goodbye
    I feel So Country I Could Die

  13. Being from Louisville, I always follow horse racing's Triple Crown: Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont. I was at Churchill Downs when Secretariat won the Derby in 1973 and again when Affirmed won it in 1978.

    California Chrome is one win away from being the first Triple Crown winner in 36 years. He is strong. He has a sense of laying just right, then pouring it on at the head of the stretch. He seems to enjoy winning! It all comes down to the Belmont on June 7. If California Chrome wins, he will achieve immortality as a superhorse. If he loses, he will be forgotten with the others who won 2 out of 3. You can't trust the horses. I learned that back in Louisville. Still, I will be at the sports bar across the street rooting for this horse to do something almost impossible.

    I've been across the desert in the burning sun
    I've been the lonely one
    My heart's beating fast
    My soul's on fire tonight
    I got 'em standing in line
    I can have my choice
    But you're the one I'm thinking of
    I'm really, really ready
    I'm ready for some Hard Earned Love

    Been working all week just to earn my pay
    Living for Saturday
    Another Friday night
    Stepping out with a man like you
    I'll wear my shortest skirt
    My high heel shoes
    Pick me up at 8
    I'm really, really ready
    I'm ready for some Hard Earned Love

    Drinking, dancing, making the rounds
    Every honky tonk in town
    I can't wait til you take me home
    And we're all alone

    solo

    Been working so hard, I hate my job
    I just wanna let go
    My heart's beating faster
    My soul's on fire tonight
    I got 'em standing in line
    I can have my choice
    But you're the one I'm thinking of
    I'm really, really ready
    I'm ready for some Hard Earned Love
    I'm really, really ready
    I'm ready for some Hard Earned Love

  15. Thank You For Your Service
    That's what they say
    When they find out
    I was in the army
    Little do they know
    I didn't wanna go
    That I got drafted
    I was so cowardly

    Thank You For Your Service
    Good for my ego
    To play their game
    Acting like a hero
    No way they can tell
    I was chicken shit
    Yellow and spineless
    I'll never admit

    I left a girl friend
    She found someone else
    I cried like a baby
    Felt sorry for myself

    Thank You For Your Service
    More like doing time
    I hid behind a desk
    Praying for peacetime
    I'd have run away
    If I'd seen combat
    Hid in the bushes
    Like a pussycat

    Coda:
    Living for the day
    I got my discharge
    Back to the World
    Goodbye, Sarge!

    Gimme your money
    I'll take what you got

    Don't want your sex
    Don't want your baby
    I'll have your money
    I'll leave you needy

    bridge:
    Call me a leech
    That's what I am
    Call me a parasite
    When you say "Yes, Ma'am"

    I'm always searching
    For a new man friend
    I'll be tired of you
    Leave you in the end

    Call Me Woman
    That's my name
    Call Me Woman
    We're all the same
    Call Me Woman

    This documentary shown on NOVA tells the story of the Kepler Space Telescope and its search for earthlike exoplanets. Kepler found 3500 potential planets in a small patch of sky near the constellation Cygnus. Ultimately Kepler is looking for extraterrestrial life, so it is interested in planets that are the right distances from their stars so that liquid water can exist. Not too hot, not too cold! It is assumed that alien life will obey the laws of chemistry and physics. It is also assumed that the elements carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen will play an important role along with self-replicating DNA molecules. Planet hunter Geoff Marcy turns up. There could be trillions of planets in the Milky Way.

  19. Crusoe got nothing on me
    On my desert island
    Where I live
    An isolated man
    I gave up hope eons ago
    Forsaken and damned
    Forgotten
    An alienated man

    Beyond Lonely
    Star-crossed and doomed
    Godless, soulless
    Lost and marooned
    Beyond Lonely
    Cursed and cast out
    Wifeless, friendless
    Hated, no doubt

    Snowden got nothing on me
    In this impoverished void
    Where I drift
    Like a rogue asteroid
    Impotent, sterile and empty
    Deserted and banned
    Abandoned
    An obnoxious Caliban

    Beyond Lonely
    Star-crossed and doomed
    Godless, soulless
    Lost and marooned
    Beyond Lonely
    Cursed and cast out
    Wifeless, friendless
    Hated, no doubt

    Left to die alone
    I'm nature's fool
    A worn out bag
    Of molecules

    Beyond Lonely
    Star-crossed and doomed
    Godless, soulless
    Lost and marooned
    Beyond Lonely
    Cursed and cast out
    Wifeless, friendless
    Hated, no doubt

    There's nothing
    I won't do

    I Need Your Love
    Everything that goes with it
    Shine it down on me
    Say you're gonna give it
    I Need Your Love
    Every minute, all the time
    Please don't disappear
    Don't leave me behind

    At your mercy
    That's where I am
    Revolving
    Around you
    You're the sun
    I'm your planet
    Reflecting
    All you do

    I Need Your Love
    Everything that goes with it
    Shine it down on me
    Say you're gonna give it
    I Need Your Love
    Every minute, all the time
    Please don't disappear
    Don't leave me behind

    I need your strength
    To make me strong
    I need your kiss
    I need your song

    I Need Your Love
    Everything that goes with it
    Shine it down on me
    Say you're gonna give it
    I Need Your Love
    Every minute, all the time

  21. Kiss me, my darling
    You know how to please
    Such a naughty girl
    Not the kind to tease

    Touch me, hold me too
    Be my lover doll
    Let me Smooch On You

    I taste your lipstick
    I'm so stuck on you
    Shake it for me, baby
    You know what to do

    Thrill me, my pretty
    Make me say "I do"
    You can even cook
    Let me Smooch On You

    Bridge:
    You're a sweetie
    I love your dimples
    Your curly hair
    Your tender lips

    guitar

    You drip like honey
    Your smile, so tender
    I'm yours forever
    In sweet surrender

  22. She sings "Sweet Home Chicago"
    Like she really means it
    And though she's never been there
    You'd swear she was from that city
    Reaching down in her soul
    She feels her own pain
    You know this natural woman
    Has seen fire and rain

    Blues Baby
    She really belts it out
    Blues Baby
    Knows what the blues are about
    Blues Baby
    She's feeling every note
    Blues Baby
    Living the songs we wrote

    She's got Georgia on her mind
    Loves to hear those guitars
    Loves to hear those saxophones
    Coming from those Bourbon Street bars
    He left her high and dry
    That no good man
    She's raising their two kids
    Doing the best she can

    Blues Baby
    She really belts it out
    Blues Baby
    Knows what the blues are about
    Blues Baby
    She's feeling every note
    Blues Baby
    Living the songs we wrote

    She sings it low, sings it loud
    Etta James would be proud

    guitar

    Blues Baby

  23. I meet women
    On the town
    In the bars
    They're around
    They want something
    Something from me
    I don't know what
    Must be money

    Frozen Heart
    My heart is froze
    I can't give
    Anymore
    I wouldn't know
    Where to start
    I can't love
    Frozen Heart

    I've seen it all
    Been everywhere
    Nothing left
    I don't care
    I've been divorced
    I have a son
    Just doing time
    Until it's done

    Frozen Heart
    My heart is froze
    I can't give
    Anymore
    I wouldn't know
    Where to start
    I can't love
    Frozen Heart

    Frozen soul
    Cold as ice
    South pole
    Polar night

    Frozen Heart
    My heart is froze
    I can't give
    Anymore
    I wouldn't know
    Where to start
    I can't love
    Frozen Heart
