WOO WOO
WOO WOO

VERSE

We’ve been
Building
Fires
Way past our curfew

Do not
forget to
Say your
Bedtime prayers tonight

This is
The right time
The right place
To bring it to the light

Will you
Be there
Tomorrow
The sun will rise and shine

CHORUS

If you want flame
You’re gonna need fire
If you want my love
Bring your best desire
Look into the flame
Your heart is on fire

WOO WOO
WOO WOO

VERSE

We’ve been
Trusting
Waiting
For far too long

Hold on
To my hand
As we walk
On the jagged rocks

To know
Will take more
Courage
Than you’ve ever known

CHORUS

If you want flame
You’re gonna need fire
If you want my love
Bring your best desire
Look into the flame
Your heart is on fire

BREAK

If
The
Fox
Is on the hunt
You
Should
Lead him to the briar
Remember
There’s more of us than them

VERSE

We’ve been
Building
Fires
Way past our curfew

Do not
forget to
Say your
Bedtime prayers tonight

CHORUS

If you want flame
You’re gonna need fire
If you want my love
Bring your best desire
Look into the flame
Your heart is on fire

Your heart is on fire

VERSE 1

Trail of dead lovers and admirers
Better not to guess
Smile at me across the crowd
And I can only guess

You’re confusing me
I bet that I’m confusing you too

REST

Well I think about you
What you’re thinking now
Keep saying that I want you
Then laugh’n out loud

I’m confusing you
You’ve been confusing me too

PRE-CHORUS

Feel like your Oh Oh Oh
Won’t to be your X oh no

Unless you’re talking bout 3 Xs in a row

When you write letters to me
At the bottom please
Instead of signing your message
X O X O X O

CHORUS

Sign It
Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh

VERSE 2

I watch the boys line right up
You can be so tough
Autographs and spotlights
How could there be enough

Ya I’m the kind
That understands your kind

Well I like how the words
King and queen rhyme
I’m already ready for you
Don’t need any time

Why don’t you start walk’n towards me
I’ll start walk’n to you

PRE-CHORUS

Feel like your Oh Oh Oh
Won’t to be your X oh no
Unless you’re talking bout 3 Xs in a row, Whoa

When you write letters to me
At the bottom would you please
Instead of signing your message
X O X O X O

CHORUS

Sign It
Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh

VERSE 1

Let’s play a round
Out in the driveway
Couple of tunes
As the setting sun reveals the stars

Make a little sound
To close up today
Glow of the garage light
A few tunes about how grateful we are

CHORUS

I sing to you
You sing back to me
Who needs electricity?

I smile to you
You smile back to me
Dang did you feel the electricity?

VERSE 2

Don’t need a campfire
To make this day OK
​Making up songs with you
These hearts and guitars
Light up the night

After a day of hard work
Closed with a song a beer and you
Singing in your driveway
Under the garage light after dark

CHORUS 2

I sing to you
You sing to me
Who needs electricity?

I smile to you
You smile to me
Dang did you feel the electricity?

I play with you
You play back to me
Who needs electricity?

I smile to you
You smile to me
Dang did you feel the electricity?

VERSE 1

This is real life
For some body
It’s pretty easy to find
If you’re looking

Goes on each night
Again the next day
Some can’t figure some things
Let alone chase dreams

Most you’d imagine
Have some family
Round here imagination
Don’t come cheap

PRE-CHORUS

This is the story of the plight of men
This is the story of the plight of men

CHORUS

If you count on somebody
Count your blessings too
You can count more than the stars
That don’t have someone
To count on like you

This is real life to somebody
Maybe someone you love
Maybe you and yours too

VERSE 2

If you know that
There are haves
So many more
Known as have nots

Broken bootstraps
Are hard to grab
So many broken straps
So many haves are fat

Generosity
Ya you heard me
The only solution
I believe

PRE-CHORUS

Starting with those
With the most

Again clearly
Starting with those
With the most

CHORUS

If you count on somebody
Count your blessings too
You can count more than the stars
That don’t have someone
To count on like you

This is real life to somebody
Maybe someone you love
Maybe you and yours too

Maybe you and yours too

VERSE 1

At 18 it was 3 2
You’d just put down twice the brew
Now Im not quite so brand new
I need a whole lot more liquid proof

Pull up to the bar a wooden stool
How about we toss back a few
A day offa bein’ workin’ fools
Don’t say you’ve got better to do

CHORUS

So let’s say Cheers Prost Kanpai Salud
Look you straight in the eye and wish good health to you

Cheers Nazdorovie Gan bay Sahn-tay
Look you straight in the eye and wish you have
Good health all day

VERSE 2

Sure do hope you’re feeling fine
Living good is on my mind
Hey bartender hit me one more time
My friend too it’s on my dime

There’s a time for work a time for love
A time to fight and to pray above
But this here time what I’m thinking of
Your good health and that’s enough

CHORUS

So let’s say Cheers Prost Kanpai Salud
Look you straight in the eye and wish good health to you

Cheers Nazdorovie Gan bay Sahn-tay
Look you straight in the eye and wish you have
Good health all day

BREAK

Chug-a-lug
Pie Eyed
Hammered and plastered
Drunk as a skunk
Roll out the barrel
Bottoms up
Liquid lunch
Liquid courage
Ill drink you under
This here table

CHORUS

So let’s say Cheers Prost Kanpai Salud
Look you straight in the eye and wish good health to you

Cheers Nazdorovie Gan bay Sahn-tay
Look you straight in the eye and wish you have
Good health all day

VERSE 1

You go up and up
And up and up
Leaving Bakersfield
Honky-tonked enough

Chugga Chug Chug
Keep on climbing up
Need a roundabout
To crest this bluff

PRE-CHORUS 1

If your train is more than 40 feet
Your tail might be
The next thing you meet
Nearly 40 trains a day
From Bakersfield to Mojave

CHORUS

You know you’re halfway through your route
When you’re goin round the Tehachapi Loop
Good thing William Hood understood
To scale that mountain you need the Tehachapi Loop

VERSE 2

You go down and down
and down and down
Into Bakersfield
Country girls abound

Steel on steel
Them wheels squeal
Roadmaster’s hand
Knows a steady feel

PRE-CHORUS 2

You can hear it’s call to forewarn
That’s the sound of the Union Pacific horn
From the Mojave desert where the condor roams
After we turn the loop we’re nearly home

CHORUS

You know you’re halfway through your route
When you’re goin round the Tehachapi Loop
Good thing William Hood understood
To scale that mountain you need the Tehachapi Loop

VERSE 1

I’ve got a bucket full of cold ones
Come on by and sit a spell
I’ve got a yarn of a story
If you’d listen I’d like to tell

CHORUS 1

It’s about beer
and a truck
In the small town where I grew up

And if that weren’t enough
It’s about a girl
I left in that small town

PRE-VERSE 1

A Colorado summer night
Our matching smiles felt just right
Stars never shine so bright
Our conversation managed
To outlast the moon light

Took her out to the local dance
To see our small town’s one and only
Rock ‘n’ roll band

Soon enough we were sqeakin’ springs
In a cabin on the Rockies learned
All kinds a things

VERSE 2

Like to remind her of that pick up truck
Wheels so tall
I had to push her bottom up

Crossed across that big ol’ front seat
Kissed me so good
i swear I tasted peach

CHORUS 2

It’s about tears
some bad luck
In the small town where I grew up
If that ain’t enough
It’s about a love
I left in that small town

PRE-VERSE 2

Ran me right on out of there
Wouldn’t even let me comb my hair
Grabbed my guitar not much more
Grandma’s single wide
Had an open door

While that girl wondered where I had gone
What the hell had I done
So wrong

That clock kept ticking on
While I learned my lesson she forgot
The words to our song

VERSE 3

Took the 5th street bridge into town
The jingle of my spurs the only sound

All these years I wonder if she’s here
I’d pull up in that truck
With a couple of beers

CHORUS 3

It’s about years
An old crush
In the small town where I grew up

And if that weren’t enough
It’s about a girl
I left in that small town

Oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh Oh
Oh oh oh

VERSE

She walked in with the sweet aroma of peppermint tea
He was chewing on an old-fashioned stick of Wrigley’s
Attracted by the sweet mint scent
He spoke up and asked her name

CHORUS

Peppermint the name she’d say
Yet quickly query what’s it matter anyway
Why do you ask
Why would you care
Are you here to take me away?

VERSE 2

Walking the ditch road That he’d come to know
Helping her pick peppermint and wild rose
But tonight he walked alone out there
Gathering what is needed for a love elixir

CHORUS

Gotta have just enough proof
To get anyone to tell the truth
Why do you ask
Why would you care
Are you here to take me away?

VERSE 3

She sipped the concoction of peppermint tea
While he impatiently chewed on a Wrigley’s
Seems that the tea was a bit too h5
As she gasped a last breath asking what he’d done

CHORUS

Peppermint is my poison she’d say
I knew it would catch up to me one of these days
Why do you ask
Why would you care
Are you here to take me away?

VERSE 1

I’ll tell you I like it when it’s right
I’ll take it when it’s wrong
It’s unconditional

Lean back i’m right here
I’m looking out, have no fear
It’s unconditional

So the place is right
But the time is off
I’ll come find you if you’re lost
It’s unconditional

CHORUS

If you’re heart has broke in two
Maybe burned a bridge or two
One thing left that you can do

Call on me
You can call on me

If the levee breaks and the rivers fill
Sky opens and take your will
If there’s nothing up that hill

Call on me
You can call on me

BREAK

Say my name
I’ll be right there
with out condition

I’ll know from way over here
I’ll know from all the way over here

VERSE 2

Say my name I’ll be right there
I’ll know even if I am way over here
It’s unconditional

When we walk side-by-side
It’s the best part of this life
It’s unconditional

CHORUS

When you’re heart has broke in two
Or maybe burned a bridge or two
One thing left that you can do

Call on me
You can call on me

If the levee breaks and the rivers fill
Sky opens and take your will
If there’s nothing up that hill

Call on me
You can call on me

VERSE 1

Had some real good times
With some real bad people
Can’t say I always agreed

Bottom line I’m reminded
Always tend your garden
Or you’ll wind up wrestlin’ weeds

Hope It’s OK but today
This moment sure do need ya
The apple falls right by the tree

Raised me to be honest
And in most ways I am
Here and there I fall to my knees

And I pray and pray
Yes I pray and pray

CHORUS

Hail Mary full of grace
Although I’m having fun
There ain’t no time to waste

Hail Mary
Be there right away
A feast is what Im after
Now that I’ve had a taste

Hail Mary full of grace
Although Ive done some wrong
I never fell from Grace

Never fell from Grace
Never fell from Grace

VERSE 2

No I ain’t no stranger to this
You should know I ain’t no victim
Every outcome I swear to persevere

If the weather outside
Chills you to the bone
Well come on in, it’s warm in here

Don’t mind my friends
Some come from bad places
If you knew you might not agree

They’re a good kind of folk tho
Good kind of dreams
Kind of dreams that let’s a body believe

So for them I pray and pray
Yeah for them I pray and pray

CHORUS

Hail Mary full of grace
Never meant to do no wrong
Help me rise from this place

Hail Mary
Be there soon enough
Tried to stay beside you
Although the roads been rough

Hail Mary full of grace
Although Ive done some wrong
Forgive my fall from grace

Forgive my fall from grace
Forgive my fall from grace
