When You And I Are Gone

When you and I are gone
With time we will grow old,
And our hair will turn gray.
But our love will never die,
Together we'll always stay.
We will laugh, we will cry,
We may argue, we may fight.
We will love, we will die,
It will happen in our life.
When you and I are gone,
Our memories will live on.
We'll leave our footprint in time,
When love was yours and mine.
We may have children,
That come from our love.
We will have good times,
The bad we won't think of.
Like our mom and dad,
We'll do what we have to do.
We will have hopes and faith,
That all our dreams come true.
When you and I are gone,
Our memories will live on.
We'll leave our footprint in time,
When love was yours and mine.

I Do It All The Time
My Needs come last in my life
My Wants come after that
There's a stronger calling on my life
To be the best husband I can be
There could be no one better for you babe,
I Do It All The Time
When I get up in the morning
You're the first thing on my mind.
When I fall asleep I pray for you every night.
When I dream of you it's a good dream
Trust me when I say, I Do it all The Time.
I wish we had met when we were 25
But then we were both different back then
I Wouldn't have been ready for you
And you would have killed me before my time.
I Try to remember where we both came from
and I Think that's why I Do it All The Time.
Inst Break
When the timer went off, we finally met
When we were old enough to learn ourselves.
The Planets and the Moon must have aligned that day
and the Lord above was smiling when I asked,
How did you know Lord?, He said "I Do it all the time!"

If It Ain't That Big A Love
V1
I Met you through a friend when I was hurting,
I'd sworn off love and quick-sand too.
We talked on the phone when I was a thousand miles away,
I could tell it was love in a very big way.
I tried to resist but your heart was pull'in,
I knew I had to get home soon and Hold You!
CHORUS
When I Jumped down out that truck you were so hot you were smok'in,
All those things you said, baby, you weren't Joke'in.
My resistance was weak and I couldn't fight it,
If it it ain't that big a love, then I don't want it.
V2
We were full time lovers at the speed of sound,
I knew for you I would always be around,
Am I Man enough? Am I Strong enough? Can I Love Enough?
To win your whole life over!
V3
25 Years later I Look Back and Thank GOD,
For the Love of My Life that I Couldn't deny.
I am more in love with you than ever before,
I think of you every day from awake till snore.
CHORUS
When I Jumped down out that truck you were so hot you were smok'in,
All those things you said, baby, you weren't Joke'in.
My resistance was weak and I couldn't fight it,
If it it ain't that big a love, then I don't want it.
V4
How big does a Love really Have to be,
to stand the test of time and still want to be,
together everyday from Can til Cain't
To kiss your neck at the kitchen sink?
CHORUS
When I Jumped down out that truck you were so hot you were smok'in,
All those things you said, baby, you weren't Joke'in.
My resistance was weak and I couldn't fight it,
If it it ain't that big a love, then I don't want it.

I'm Nobody
V1
I Played at a Jazz club in the middle of nowhere,
where there was an old Sax Player from the 1940's era.
He was tattered and tired but still so danged inspired,
V2
I Asked him to a breakfast after the club closed that night,
just to get to know him and maybe steal some of his bright light.
We talked about music and times of old and how the music
had died.
PRE-CHORUS
When I asked him his name, he just said in a shaky voice "I'm Nobody",
He looked around and then glanced at the floor.
I felt my entire heart sink with his lack of pride,
V3
I talked to the club owner who wasn't much help,
he said the man had played there for 25 years
as a house musician who only got to play in the back.
V4
I thought about Mr. Nobody for a few more months,
Until I went back to find him to offer him a gig and more.
The Club Owner told me that nobody had died last week,
And now he with the Lord and has no more blues.
CHORUS X 2
I am sure that heaven is better with Nobody's Sound
I am sure when I Die I'm gonna see him around.
Jesus is listening and tapping his sandaled Foot.

Thank God for my memories
The girls that I have loved,
The good times and the sad,
My hurt and times I cried,
Are memories of the life I had.
Buried deep in my mind,
Where I have them stored.
Is the place that I can go,
To play my picture shows.
Whenever I close my eyes,
They 're as clear as can be.
When I revisit times I've had,
Thank God for my memories.
I can see my mom and dad,
And all the friends I had.
The ones I loved and lost,
The good times and the bad.
My mind records the things I see,
And it makes all of my memories.
The are the one thing I can rewind,
And they wait there for me to find.
Whenever I close my eyes,
They 're as clear as can be.
When I revisit times I've had,
Thank God for my memories.

The work week is finally over,
No clock to wake us up.

Unless we want to get fired.

Things I Didn't Do Yesterday
V1
Theres a list of things that play in my mind,
things i should have done,
things that would have made a difference,
in my life and time.
V2
Where did all my yesterdays Go?
What did I really get done?
If I'd tried a little harder
Then Maybe I'd have had some fun.
Chorus
Things I Didn't do yesterday,
Things that never got done,
Things That were never said out loud
And Things that should have been loved.
V3
Did I Love enough or often enough,
Did I make a difference in someone's life?
Did I reach out to GOD and Pray enough,
To get someone through the night?
V4
Things I Didn't do Yesterday
The list is longer than you think,
All the things I could have enjoyed in life
But I Never stopped to Think.
Chorus
Things I Didn't do yesterday,

And Things that should have been loved.

I thank God for you everyday
Until my life on earth is through,
I will be right here loving you.
Til I have taken my last breath,
Loving you is what I'll do.
You amaze me almost everyday,
You show your love for me in everyway.
You never complain or critcize,
You always show your love in your eyes.
CHORUS
I thank God for you (every single day) everyday,
And when we share a kiss.
Or you stop to hold my hand,
I'm so glad you came my way.
Never knew how good life could be,
until God sent you to me.
Could not imagine so much love,
Until I look at our memories.
Each day when I see the sun,
Until it over we're having fun.
Each night I hold you tight,
You make all my wrongs turn right.
CHORUS
I thank God for you (every single day)everyday,
And when we share a kiss.
Or you stop to hold my hand,
I'm so glad you came my way.
I thank God for you everyday,
I thank God for you everyday.

I Used To Have Dreams
06:14
|

|
I used to have dreams
You broke my heart,
You tore it all apart.
You cheated and lied,
I hid the tears I cried.
The sun no longer shines,
I've left my hopes behind.
It is hard for me to smile,
Until I quit hurting awhile.
I use to have dreams,
and knew what life means.
I hoped I have a wife,
And live a happy life.
I'm just a shell of the man,
That I used to be.
I don't dream anymore,
Since you walked out the door.
Tomorrow may never come,
When this day is done.
You hurt me so bad,
Killed all the dreams that I had.
I use to have dreams,
and knew what life means.
I hoped I have a wife,
And live a happy life.

He was prepared for a fight
He started riding west,
Had sworn he'd do his best, that Day.
There were men he must kill,
There wouldn't be any deals.
His brother was dead,
with a bullit to his head.
His wife and children died,
He had no time to cry.
Three men had done this thing,
They stole their wedding rings.
He must make this thing right,
He was prepared for a fight.
As he road into the town,
Where he knew they'd be found.
He checked his trusty guns,
He knew he wouldn't run.
When his guns startd blazing,
It was hell he was raising.
It didn't take him long,
To right what was wrong.
Three men had done this thing,
They stole their wedding rings.
He must make this thing right,
He was prepared for a fight.

negative way....Or Maybe you have been Married
or in a relationship too many times and you wonder
"What's wrong with ME?
Maybe you are self negative because life is a bully!
Maybe you feel like "less than" someone else.
Maybe you have Baggage like a child.
Maybe you want to run everytime someone smiles at you.
Maybe you cry yourself to sleep at night.
Maybe you are so lonely it hurts.

Maybe you could be wrong....

When the Election was stolen
We lost More than we Knew.

of things we always knew.

Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Religion,
Freedom to Travel, and the right to bear Arms.

Our President is a Clown!

It will be Brother in Arms with Brother.

We will lose our Country
And our American Rights!

If they cheat and win all the power.

Of this the final hour!

But we can still prevail
In this Perilous Fight
If we show them the spirit
And the American Might!

Valerie Layne by David Gordy
When we were small,
I was your "DayDay"
You were my Laynie Bug
I was your Protector,
Your big brother and warrior.
Some how, Someway something
went wrong.
When Mama died, you
went off on your own.
Over 20 Years now since I've
even heard you on the phone.
I dunno where we went wrong
I dunno what I did or didn't do wrong.
Where have you gone and
where have you been?
I often wonder if I'll see you again.
Layne I miss you and we've
lost so much. Time we will never
recover at all. Years we have lost
and memories made, all that's
lost now and soon it will fade.
bridge
It's hard to rebuild a bridge
when all the wood is burned.
It's hard to go back and fix
after all we have learned
But I am willing if you are
I don't want my life to end
without knowing of what I yearn

Why Your Special To Me
Folk Ballad 2
V1
Just the way you hold your smile
when I haven't been funny in while.
The way you look at me for no reason at all.
These are all things that make you special to me.
V2
When you sneak up on me just to get a hug
when you touch me any where we are
when you say I Love you a thousand times a day
the way you sound when you say it too.
Chorus
There are hundreds of reasons for me to love you
but the feelings we share are only one
of those hundreds of reasons for why
Your so very special to me.
V3
Sometimes I watch you sleeping and I Wonder of what you dream
But I think I know for sure you dream of of me.
Because when I close my eyes all I can see are yours
That Look you get that only I Ever see.
V4
When you cry, it completely breaks my heart
When your sad, I try so hard to think
Of anything and everything I can do
To make your dreams come True!
Chorus
There are hundreds of reasons for me to love you
but the feelings we share are only one
of those hundreds of reasons for why
Your so very special to me.

When you travel the road
Life can be rough,
When you travel the road.
You hope you and the band,
Are remembered by fans.
When you are fighting to gain fame,
People must remember your name.
Or the life that you will lose,
Will only bring you the blues.
You will miss birthdays,
Seeing children grow up.
Some will make it big,
Some say enough is enough.
CHORUS
Life can be rough,
When you travel the road.
You hope you and the band,
Are remembered by fans.
You want to be the man,
Who'll always have a plan.
You'll sing many songs,
And some will be wrong.
On the road there will be many turns,
And roads that you can take.
Even if you try to choose right,
You will still make some mistakes.
Chorus
Life can be rough,
When you travel the road.
You hope you and the band,
Are remembered by fans.

Another Worthless Cowboy
V1
She married 3 times to get it right
She thought she'd found her man.
He was Charming and polite
and he always pulled out her chair
V2
When the new wore off again she found
the spark just wasn't there
When he started staying out all night,
She woke up and he just wasn't there.
CHORUS
He was another worthless Cowboy
just like all the ones before,
She wasn't waiting for him this time,
So she threw his stuff out the door.
2
He's another Worthless Cowboy
Just like the ones before
She wasn't waiting for him this time
So she threw his stuff out the door.
Fiddle SOLO
V3
He'd come home in the morning,
trying to make things right
But he wasn't worth it to her anymore
and he damned sure wasn't worth the fight.
V4
He begged and Pleaded for just one more try,
It all fell on educated ears and what he said she could not hear.
She heard his old truck start and head for the road
and she tried to hold back the tears ....BUT
Another Worthless Cowboy,...Another Worthless Cowboy.
CHORUS
He was another worthless Cowboy
just like all the ones she'd found before,
But she was done with men forever now,
She was a beautiful woman, Not a Cow!
A Woman not a Cow....A Woman Not a Cow.

We All Bleed Red
V1
There're riots in the street,
Fights and burning flames.
Ignorance rules the world
Cause our color's not the same.
V2
It's time to love our neighbors,
Ignore color of their face.
Facts are plain and simple,
We all come from the same place.
CHORUS
It's time we understand,
And get it in our heads.
When anyone gets shot or cut,
We all bleed red.
V3
Everyone's like you and me,
They have hopes and they have dreams.
They will love, they'll cry,
They will live, they'll die.
V4
Until we open up our heart,
Get a better frame of mind,
The world will never change,
It's time to just be kind.
V5
When GOD created Adam
He saw the he was alone.
He knew he needed a mate
So humans could go on.
V6
So that's where it all started
with just one woman and one man.
Thats where we all came from
Why is that so hard to understand?
V7
Everyone you see is related in that way
we are all brothers and sisters
We were created that same day.
Don't hate your brother because of the color of his skin.
V8
We have no need to fight
Why distroy what people have?
Why burn down the buildings
Or is this just your excuse?
V9
What we really need to fight is
the lawless in this land.
Ignorance cannot be fixed
Until the law is made to stand!
CHORUS
It's time we understand,
And get it in our heads.
When anyone gets shot or cut,
We all bleed red.

It's Just a Dog
They have a Life. Hopes and Dreams,
They have feelings just like you and me.
They are all made by the same GOD,
They were sent to be our friends.
They are more than "Just a Dog".
So why when someone sees a Dog in need,
they say, "It's Just a Dog.....It's Just a Dog!"
We throw away more food every day than yo could believe.
Food that could feed a hungry animal.
Trash we didn't even need or want.
When there is a lost person in the forest
Dogs are always wanted because..
they can find people and children
we could not begin to find.
But "They are Just Dogs" Right?
When a human can see or hear
or even walk, they are in fear.
But a Dog can help with all that
and yet some people just don't care.
After all, "It's Just a Dog".
Dogs have a dream of helping us,
They only want to serve.
They only need food and water
To be happy in their lives.
They are NOT "Just a Dog!"

Time Goes By
Time Goes By, It really seems to fly,
as minutes turn into days,
and days into years, until time get short
and the decades grow few,
until I cry, Take me home Adoni!
Take me home Adoni!
When I was a kid it seems that time went so slow.
a whole school year seemed like a lifetime ago.
My teen years went by to fast while I was having a blast.
But then time did a flip, when I was working so hard,
Trying to build a life and one day own a Farm.
But once I Owned that Farm, Time again started to fly.
Time Again Started to Fly.
I'm old now and time has flown by.
My Kids don't even write home now,
The years have nearly all Gone now,
and again I'll Cry "Take me Home Adoni!"
"Take me Home Adoni!"
When you complain about things taking too long,
learn to cherish the things that make you strong,
For one day before too long, All those years will be gone,
And you will remember it wasn't that long.
You'll Remember it wasn't that long!

Dirt Road Reset
Intro
V1
Sometimes when your head just won't shut off
There's nothing you can do.
You can't sleep, or concentrate on any job to do.
Your friends all take vacations that you can't afford to take,
That's when a ride in the country seems like the very best!
V2
When your worried about people or all the bills are due,
You just get overwhelmed when life stands up and walks all over you.
There seems to be no end to the pressures of your life,
You really need to step back and take control over all this stress and strife!
CHORUS
So, what you do?
You need a Dirt Road Reset. A Quiet get away.
A favorite campsite somewhere so far away.
Leave the Telephone and the email, It'll be there when you get back.
You need a Dirt Road Reset to get back to the love of life!
V3
If they ask you where you went to, you tell them it's a secret get away,
There's no need to explain it, they have their own hide aways.
Don't admit your head was reeling, don't show the stress got in the way.
No one needs to know your weakness, It's just your doctor for a few days.
V4
Pitch a tent, and cut some firewood, find good water you can drink.
No need to take the whole Walmart or load in the kitchen sink.
Just plan a head for a few days groceries, A Knife, a saw, and an axe.
Take a bedroll and a pillow, And maybe forget to come back!
CHORUS
So, what you do?
You need a Dirt Road Reset. A Quiet get away.
A favorite campsite somewhere so far away.
Leave the Telephone and the email, It'll be there when you get back.
You need a Dirt Road Reset to get back to the love of life!

You Are The Reason
You are the Reason
I am Alive....
I was born to be always with you
By your Side........
Our Lives have thrown us
curveballs many times
but we have overcome them
because our love prevailed.
CHORUS
We...are two..., us two you and me
we will be together for eternity....
I can't remember any time
when you and I had a fight...
we've stayed together always
because we know it's right.
When other people
show their true colors and run,
we just look at each other
the truth is we are one.
We have a freindship
like no other people do.....
If I feel like crying....
I come to you.....
CHORUS
We...are two..., us two you and me
we will be together for eternity....
You are the Reason
I am Still Alive....
I was born to be always with you
Right By your Side........
