  1. I came to Nashville
    Sometime ago
    Thought I'd be welcome
    On Music Row
    Millions of songs
    They don't need more
    They're posting guards
    At their door

    Song Wars
    Backbiting
    Everybody's singing
    Everybody's writing
    Song Wars
    It's a clique
    Music business
    Critiques you to death

    I guess it's true
    I can't compete
    With Carrie Underwood
    Or George Strait
    There's no mercy
    None at all
    All is fair
    In love and war

    Song Wars
    Backbiting
    Everybody's singing
    Everybody's writing
    Song Wars
    It's a clique
    Music business
    Critiques you to death

    In the end
    It's all about money
    Welcome to Nashville
    Honey

    Song Wars
    Backbiting
    Everybody's singing
    Everybody's writing
    Song Wars
    It's a clique
    Music business
    Critiques you to death

  2. Thought we were done
    But it's not over yet
    There's one more round
    So ready, get set
    You better believe it
    We'll set it all right
    We're not going gentle
    Into that good night

    Baby Boomers Last Stand
    Yeah, Star Wars is back
    This time it's a sequel
    We're on the right track
    Trump in the White House
    Donald's our man
    We can't go wrong
    Baby Boomers Last Stand

    Born in the forties
    We survived Vietnam
    Elvis and The Beatles
    And the disco bomb
    Still got our seventies
    To turn things around
    We'll shine in old age
    It's time to get down

    Baby Boomers Last Stand
    Yeah, Star Wars is back
    This time it's a sequel
    We're on the right track
    Trump in the White House
    Donald's our man
    We can't go wrong
    Baby Boomers Last Stand

    Gal Gadot
    Lynda Carter
    Wonder Woman
    Reincarnate

    Baby Boomers Last Stand
    Yeah, Star Wars is back
    This time it's a sequel
    We're on the right track
    Trump in the White House
    Donald's our man
    We can't go wrong
    Baby Boomers Last Stand

  3. I looked in the window
    As I was coming up the walk
    Hooters on the corner
    Was showing baseball
    The Mets and the Royals
    In the World Series
    The best of seven
    This time every fall

    Old School Baseball
    That's what I like
    I don't care for football
    But I still like baseball
    Old School Baseball
    It's America's game
    I can't stand basketball
    But I still like baseball

    I think about the years
    When I played second base
    Our team was pretty good
    We stayed in first place
    The years have flown by
    And so much has changed
    But Old School Baseball
    Is still the same game

    Old School Baseball
    That's what I like
    I don't care for football
    But I still like baseball
    Old School Baseball
    It's America's game
    I can't stand basketball
    But I still like baseball

    Mickey Mantle
    Lou Gehrig
    Ted Williams
    Babe Ruth
    Stan Musial
    Ty Cobb
    Willie Mays
    Nolan Ryan

    Old School Baseball
    That's what I like
    I don't care for football
    But I still like baseball
    Old School Baseball
    It's America's game
    I can't stand basketball
    But I still like baseball

  4. I wanna be Famous
    I want acclaim
    I want people
    To know my name
    I wanna be known
    A celebrity
    I want people
    To worship me

    I wanna make movies
    Write books
    Be a genius
    With good looks
    Have perfect hair
    A fine physique
    Like Adonis
    Ancient Greeks

    I want money
    I want women
    Cars and mansions
    Lots of attention

    I wanna be famous
    I want acclaim
    I want people
    To know my name
    I wanna be great
    A superman
    Be as Famous
    As I can

  5. Sitting On A Bar Stool In Barstow
    Wondering where all the time goes
    Wondering why I don't even drink
    Wondering why I sit here and think
    This desert sun's given me a tan
    Seems like this place is all sand
    Sitting On A Bar Stool In Barstow
    Wondering where all the time goes

    I spent two weeks in Reno
    Hooked up with a showgirl at Harrah's
    Had those legs that went on forever
    Thought for a while I'd gone to heaven
    She spent my money like it was nothing
    Then it came to a sudden end
    Turned me every which way but loose
    Got into a fight with an ex-boyfriend

    Sitting On A Bar Stool In Barstow
    Wondering where all the time goes
    Wondering why I don't even drink
    Wondering why I sit here and think
    This desert sun's given me a tan
    Seems like this place is all sand
    Sitting On A Bar Stool In Barstow
    Wondering where all the time goes

    Maybe I'll go back to Tennessee
    These showgirls are killing me

    Solo

    Made my way down to Las Vegas
    Still thinking about those legs
    Made it with a dancer in Jubilee
    6 foot 2, made short work of me
    Wasn't long her husband found out
    That black stud, he knocked me out
    Got in my truck, headed for Barstow
    Me and this bar stool's got to go

    This desert sun's given me a tan
    Seems like this place is all sand
    Sitting On A Bar Stool In Barstow
    Wondering where all the time goes
    Sitting On A Bar Stool In Barstow
    Wondering where all the time goes

  6. Brick Walls
    Out in the distance
    So many obstacles
    So much resistance
    No one to help
    I'll go it alone
    I'll do it myself
    If it gets done

    Brick Walls
    As I inch along
    The ones I counted on
    Are all gone
    Join them I will
    Join them I must
    Ashes to ashes
    Dust to dust

    I'm on my way
    The way of all flesh
    No brick walls
    In peaceful death

    Brick Walls
    Until I'm through
    I don't pretend
    To count on you
    No one to help
    I'll go it alone
    I'll do it myself
    If it gets done

  7. Kissing in the car
    Cuddling on the couch
    Loving in our bed
    Love it when we smooch
    When it's red or pink
    Those lipstick stains
    Play with my heart
    Mess with my brain

    I'm Lost In Your Lipstick
    Drunk on your kiss
    The touch of your lips
    Lost In Your Lipstick

    When it's red or pink
    Those lipstick stains
    Play with my heart
    Mess with my brain

    I'm Lost In Your Lipstick
    Drunk on your kiss
    The touch of your lips
    Lost In Your Lipstick

    I wanna snuggle with you
    I wanna make love to you

    I'm Lost In Your Lipstick
    Drunk on your kiss
    The touch of your lips
    Lost In Your Lipstick

    I'm Lost In Your Lipstick
    Drunk on your kiss
    The touch of your lips
    Lost In Your Lipstick

  8. GOOD-LOOKING WOMAN
    Must say I'm attracted
    Can't seem to help it
    I'm pulled right in
    You're so magnetic
    I stay at your mercy
    Won't say you have none
    Take what you need
    Girl, you're the one

    Good-Looking Woman
    I've got no defense
    You get me everytime
    Can't seem to resist
    Good-Looking Woman
    Those eyes, those lips
    That hair, that smile
    Those legs, those hips

    You got those looks
    Keep me hypnotized
    Look at that cleavage
    Look at those thighs
    Your beauty's skin deep
    But I'm superficial
    It's all about you
    My needs are simple

    Good-Looking Women
    I've got no defense
    You get me everytime
    Can't seem to resist
    Good-Looking Woman
    Those eyes, those lips
    That hair, that smile
    Those legs, those hips

  9. You walked in
    Outta the night
    Did you know
    It's a lesbian bar
    But everybody's

  10. I want Intimacy
    I want it one on one
    With someone I care for
    With someone I love
    I'm sick of events
    Overwhelming crowds
    Twenty thousand people
    Screaming loud

    I want Intimacy
    Lying in our bed
    No TV or cell phones
    Buzzing in our heads
    I want a good woman
    Want her to want me
    Got to be somebody
    Got to be

    Intimacy
    Everything that goes with it
    Intimacy
    Kissing, love-making

    I want Intimacy
    I want it one on one
    With someone I care for
    With someone I love
    Maybe it's you, girl
    Maybe you're the one
    Let's give it a try
    Let's have fun

  11. You're Never Gonna Move On
    Not from me you're not
    You might as well forget it
    Just say forget me not
    You're gonna stay with me
    Ti death do us part
    Just call us old fashion
    Call it from the heart

    I'm Never Gonna Move On
    There's no place left to go
    I'll never get away from you
    You're the one who said so
    We might as well move in
    We'll live together a while
    Then we'll get married
    Then we'll have a child

    I need you
    You need me
    Need breaks iron
    Sets us free

    You're Never Gonna Move On
    Not from me you're not
    You might as well forget it
    Just say forget me not
    If there's a heaven
    We'll be there together
    If there's no heaven
    Then it won't matter

  13. We're All One
    Like the yogis and gurus say
    It's all one
    Like the cosmologists say
    Life feeds on life
    Life feeds on nature
    Life feeds on itself
    Creature on creature

    We're All One
    Human race
    One religion
    Common fate
    We're All One
    Common goal
    Web of life
    Heart and soul

    Monkeys, humans
    We're related
    Spiders, monkeys
    Don't you hate it?
    If We're All One
    Why so different?
    If We're All One
    Why so separate?

    We're All One
    Human race
    One religion
    Common fate
    We're All One
    Common goal
    Web of life
    Heart and soul

    Everyone influences everyone
    Everyone is influenced by everyone
    Everything reflects everything
    Everything is reflected by everything

    We're All One
    Human race
    One religion
    Common fate
    We're All One
    Common goal
    Web of life
    Heart and soul

  15. EVOLVING ALL THE TIME
    I'm not an atheist
    I'm not apolitical
    I'm not agnostic
    I'm not asexual

    There's not a word
    You can put on me
    Ain't no definition
    No label that fits
    There's not a tag
    That applies to me
    Soon as you hang it
    I've outgrown it

    I'm Evolving All The Time
    Changing right before your eyes
    Morphing into something new
    Turning your truth into lies

    I'm no philosopher
    No existentialist
    Musicologist
    Even a scientist

    I'm on my way to Mars
    Europa and the nearby stars
    Dropping in on Saturn's moons
    Enceladus, Titan too
    I reject religion
    In all its forms
    I'm not a rebel
    But reject all norms

    I'm Evolving All The Time
    Changing right before your eyes
    Morphing into something new
    Turning your truth into lies

    Eternal future
    Has no past
    How could it
    When nothing lasts

    I'm Evolving All The Time
    Changing right before your eyes
    Morphing into something new
    Turning your truth into lies

    I'm Evolving All The Time
    Changing right before your eyes
    Morphing into something new
    Turning your truth into lies

  16. We can go back to nothing
    It's just random chaos
    It finally ends in death
    Still there's nothing lost

    Like Quantum Mechanics
    Subatomic particles
    Appearing, disappearing
    From absolutely nowhere

    Nothing is substantial
    Nothing matters at least
    As we ramble on
    To meaningless death

    Like Quantum Mechanics
    Subatomic particles
    Appearing, disappearing
    From absolutely nowhere

  17. You're the Sexiest Woman
    God put on this planet
    Got a rockin little body
    You're built like granite
    When I watch you strut
    In those red high heels
    My adrenaline flows
    I like how it feels

    You're the Sexiest Woman
    You're like a machine
    When I watch you move
    In those cut off off jeans
    It's all I can do
    To control myself
    I just wanna scream
    And holler for help

    Blonde hair on your shoulders
    Halfway down your back
    You've got everything
    Ain't nothing you lack

    You're the Sexiest Woman
    God put on this planet
    Got a rockin little body
    You're built like granite
    You're the Sexiest Woman
    To ever evolve
    Those legs and hips
    Keep me in love

    Continue to see him
    He'll be your boy friend
    I'll be your girl friend
    I wanna be like you
    Destroy this male ego
    It only brings me pain
    Let my female side show

    We're All Lesbians Now
    Gender's a matter of choice
    I'll do what you want
    Use my girlie voice
    We'll be like sisters
    Please show me how
    Dress me in panties
    We're All Lesbians Now

    Paint me with lipstick
    Put my hair in curlers
    A little blue eyeshadow
    A touch of your perfume

    We're All Lesbians Now
    Gender's a matter of choice
    I'll do what you want
    Use my girlie voice
    We'll be like sisters
    Please show me how

  19. This ain't the beginning

    Gotta Be

  20. Never thought it would happen
    Thought he'd be young forever
    Just go on and on
    Get better and better
    He had a lot of women
    They just came and went
    The years flew by
    Now his youth is spent

    He's a Lonely Old Man
    His future's in the past
    It's all behind him
    It just didn't last
    Lonely Old Man
    His family's all dead
    He looks in the mirror
    He's no kid

    He wonders who will find him
    When his face hits the floor
    When he's breathed his last
    When he's breathing no more
    His wife, she divorced him
    He hardly sees his son
    When the rent's overdue
    Then someone will come

    He's a Lonely Old Man
    His future's in the past
    It's all behind him
    It just didn't last
    Lonely Old Man
    His family's all dead
    He looks in the mirror
    He's no kid

    The youngest become the oldest
    Then they die off
    You think it's gonna end
    But life goes on

    He's a Lonely Old Man
    His future's in the past
    It's all behind him
    It just didn't last
    Lonely Old Man
    His family's all dead
    He looks in the mirror
    He's no kid

  21. I walked the line
    For a woman named June
    I loved to play
    Belt out a tune
    I wrote music
    Snorted cocaine
    Got to say
    It affected my brain

    Call me Cash
    Don't call me Johnny
    Call me Cash
    Don't call me Johnny

    I never did time
    Spent one night in jail
    But Folsom Prison
    Was the real deal
    It made me a bundle
    A lot of cash
    A lot of money
    Went to my bank

    Call me Cash
    Don't call me Johnny
    Call me Cash
    Don't call me Johnny

    When you're in Nashville
    Drop on by
    The Cash Museum
    Just say "Hi"

    Call me Cash
    Don't call me Johnny
    Call me Cash
    Don't call me Johnny

    Call me Cash
    Don't call me Johnny
    Call me Cash
    Don't call me Johnny

  23. I just wanna sit
    Around the coffee shop
    In my cargo pants
    With my lap top
    I want you to see
    How cool I am
    Make you wonder
    If I'm woman or man

    I'm Cool
    That's how I feel
    Laid back
    The real deal
    I'm Cool
    Can't touch me
    Don't bother to call
    Just text me

    I just wanna walk
    Around in these flip flops
    Hang out @ Times Square
    Watch the ball drop
    I just wanna play
    Frolic with my dog
    While my girl friend
    Raises our kid

    I'm Cool
    That's how I feel
    Laid back
    The real deal
    I'm Cool
    Can't touch me
    Don't bother to call
    Just text me

    I'm Cool
    I'm no fool
    The only rule
    Is be Cool

    I'm Cool
    That's how I feel
    Laid back
    The real deal
    I'm Cool
    Can't touch me
    Don't bother to call
    Just text me

  24. Star Wars is coming
    Brand new trilogy
    No prequel this time
    A sequel to 83
    Wonder Woman is coming
    She got her own movie
    Now she's Gal Gadot
    With the Justice League

    A Tidal Wave is coming
    A hurricane off the ocean
    A Tidal Wave is coming
    Renaissance of epic proportion

    The seventies are rising
    Rising from the fire
    Rising like the phoenix
    From its funeral pyre
    We got one more round
    You know its not too late
    We can still climb this mountain
    We can still beat our fate

    A Tidal Wave is coming
    A hurricane off the ocean
    A Tidal Wave is coming
    Renaissance of epic proportion

    There's hope for you and me
    A date with destiny
    Come on, turn the page
    Another golden age

    A Tidal Wave is coming
    A hurricane off the ocean
    A Tidal Wave is coming
    Renaissance of epic proportion

    A Tidal Wave is coming
    A hurricane off the ocean
    A Tidal Wave is coming
    Renaissance of epic proportion
