A man by day, a boy at night
He tries to keep his dreams alive
But reality keeps pushing in
Fight and push and pull away
Fight to keep that monster at bay
He gets up at 6:15
Showers, shaves, and starts to preen
Wants to look the corporate man
But when his brain starts to take a rest
He flies to places only he knows best
A famous musician or a fireman
A pilot or whatever he can
Are you ready?
Yes, I’m ready.
A family guy when he’s home at night
Loves his wife, and he feels alright
But in his heart he’s taking off in flight
And while in bed he savors the dreams
That make reality more than it seems
He wishes he were a captain of industry
A mover and a shaker is his destiny
Are you ready?
Yes, I’m ready.
(Spoken)
Are you ready?
Yes, I'm ready.

What Would You Do?
03:44

What should I do?
All of my world's gone crazy
Could it be you?
Maybe my sanity's hazy
Walking around
Head's way up in the sky now
I'm not feeling down
People are asking me why now
(Bridge)
Couldn't stop smiling right from the start
And now I can't get you out of my heart
(Chorus)
What should I do? / I can't stop what's happening
I haven't a clue / My head's spinning fast
How did you do / This to my heart girl?
Now that you're with me / I just couldn't go
I love you girl / Don't you know?
Where should I go?
I just can't live without you
Wouldn't you know?
I don't want to live without you
(Repeat bridge)
(Repeat chorus)
(Guitar solo)
Now that you're mine
Everything else is new
I think I'm fine
Tell me now, what would you do?
What would you do?
What would you do?

You Said

You said, “why do fish like to swim?”
And I said, “ ‘cause they don’t know how to fly.”
And you said, “why do birds like to fly?”
And I said, “so they can touch the sky.”
You said, “will I ever learn to fly?”
‘Cause I know that I wanna touch the sky.
I’ll never come on down to the ground.
No, no, I’m never coming down.”
Anything’s possible yeah
Anything that you want to do
It is a dream that you can dream
If that’s the way it’s meant to be
Then that’s the way it’s meant to be
I said, “what are you gonna do?
You know that it’s all up to you.
Anything that you dream of you can be.
No limits, not the earth, the sky, the sea.”
Anything’s possible yeah
Anything that you want to be
It’s your life dream all you can dream
If that’s the way it’s meant to be
Then that’s the way it’s meant to be
You said, “that’s how it’s meant to be.”
And I said, “if that is your dream.”
You said, “I will reach the sky.”
“You just have to try.”

When She's Gone
03:25

She walks down the hall into my room
Leaving behind a trail of her perfume
When she is with me I never fear
‘Cause nothing can shake me when she is near
(But) when she’s gone I’m alone again
Walking around this place
When she comes back I’m on again
Cause she is my saving grace
Oh yes she is
And her heart is mine
She walks in the bar and the room lights up
Looking finer than a beer in a Dixie cup
Better than whiskey and finer than wine
I’m one lucky guy to know she’s mine
(But) when she’s gone I’m alone again
Walking around I’m lost
When she comes back I’m on again
‘Cause no matter what the cost
I’m gonna try
To keep her mine
(But) when she’s gone I’m alone again
Walking around this place
When she comes back I’m on again
Cause she is my saving grace
(But) when she’s gone I’m on my own again
Walking around I’m lost
When she comes back I’m on again
‘Cause no matter what the cost
I’m gonna try

I was walking on down the street / Happy as I could be
When a beautiful dark skinned blonde / Came on over to me
She was listening to rock and roll / As she gave me a smile
I looked her once right in the eye / And said without any guile
You don't have to be hot to like country / But it helps with the boys
Cause when we see a good looking girl / We like to make a lot of noise
You don't have to be hot to like country / Cause it's loved round the world
But you gotta like country / To be my girl
At the end of a long, hot day / I stopped to get me some eats
When a pretty, long haired brunette / Came on over to me
She heard me singing all to myself / Then asked me who it was
"Lemme tell you 'bout Johnny Cash / The best that ever was"
You don't have to be hot to like country / Though it can open doors
Cause when we see a nice southern girl / It's not easy to ignore
Though you don't have to be hot to like country / Yet it helps if you are
Cause if you're hot and you like country / You're like a music star
(Spoken) Playing a guitar
You don't have to be hot to like country / But it helps with the boys
Cause when we see a good looking girl / We like to make a lot of noise
No you don't have to be hot to like country / I don't want to offend
But if you don't like Hank or Merle / Then you can't be my friend
No it doesn't matter what kind of girl / 'Cause this is the end

Time it was
And what a time it was, it was
A time of innocence
A time of confidences
Long ago it must be
I have a photograph
Preserve your memories
They're all that's left you

Well what do you know a year is going by fast
And if you don't look now, the months will have gone past
Winter and Spring, Summer and Fall yeah baby
And though we haven't had any rotten weather
I really wouldn't care if we're always together
Cause what a year it's been
No I wouldn't have changed nothing
Think of all the things that we've done together
Anyone can see that we're really in love
Supporting each other, no thing else can be above
Loving and laughing, see ing life with new eyes now baby
And when I look to our long future together
I know that things will only keep getting better
Cause what a year it's been
No I wouldn't have changed nothing
Think of all the places we've been to baby
And who knows what the next year will bring to us
More prosperity? Though we're now living happily?
Cause what a year it's been
No I wouldn't have changed nothing
Think of all the things that we'll do together
Cause what a year it's been
No I wouldn't have changed nothing
Think of all the places we're going to baby
