Me doing something along the lines of country music.


Nothing you can say or do would ever cause me to change my ways

I love the country life and the thunder that echoes across the plains

Its music to my ears when I hear George Strait on the radio

Or when the national anthem is sung at a rodeo

Bring me a beer from the cooler and don't forget my Marlboro

It's almost time for the Fourth of July's fireworks show

So dust off your boots and get on my pick-up truck

Together we'll hit the bar and if we have any luck

We'll drink our blues away until they close the bar

because country life is too short to be spent driving some fancy car

When did Budweiser stop being the King of beers? Can you tell me that?

And why are older women called cougars when we all know their not cat's

So hand me a beer and play another country song

We'll drink the night away to "Tuesday's Gone"

You can take a person out of the country but you can't take the country out of a person

At least we like to think that when beer hasn't clouded our vision

So dust off your hat and get on my pick up truck

Slap on some Seager and we'll test our luck

Say here I am, On the road again, There I am drunk at the bar

Country life is too short to be spent driving some fancy car

The Search For You

Softly I spoke the words she would never hear, I knew it was too late So I've gone and carried on such is the cruel hand of fate I only pretended to act strong and held my head high And never knew she had already said goodbye So is the reason I cry...

The Bond (Spoken True Verse)

I hold the future in my hands and ask you this Will you walk with me now and forever? With you, I'll share my love, my life For we are one and with you I'm complete This band, a symbol of my undying love I ask that you be mine, forever
