A Lot of Things Different ~ Kenny Chesney

Id spent a lot more time out in the pouring rain without an umbrella
Covering my head
And Id stood up to that bully when he pushed and called me names
But I was too afraid
And Id gone on and saw Elvis that night he came to town
Mama said I couldn't
And I'd went skinny dipping with Jenny Carson that time she dared me to
But I didn't
Oh I, Id done a lot of things different

I wish Id spent more time with my dad when he was alive
Now I don't have the chance
And I wish I'd told my brother how much I loved him before he went off to war
But I just shook his hand
I wish Id gone to church on Sunday morning when my grandma begged me to
But I was afraid of God
I wish I would of listened when they said boy you're gonna wish you hadn't
But I wouldn't
Oh I, Id done a lot of things different

People say they wouldn't change a thing
Even if they could
Oh but I would

There was this red dress she wanted one time so bad she could taste it
I shoulda bought it, but I didn't
She wanted to paint our bedroom yellow and trim it in blues and greens
But I wouldn't let her, it wouldn't of hurt nothing
She loved, to be held and kissed and touched
But I didn't do it, not nearly enough
And If Id have a known that dance was gonna be our last dance
I'd asked that band to play on and on, on and on
Oh I, Id done a lot of things different

People say they wouldn't change a thing
Even if they could
Oh but I would, ooh

Oh I, Id done a lot of things different
Oh I, Id done a lot of things

I think we'd all do a lot of things different.

Dede,I'd been intending to post this anyway...thanks for reminding me.It really is a great song.I know what you mean,too-sometimes it's seems like every song was written just for you,because it voices something that was on your mind and in your heart.

Alright Guy ~ Gary Allan

You know just the other morning
I was hanging around in my house
I had that old book with picutres of Madonna naked
And I was checkin' it out
Just then a friend of mine came to the door
She said she never pegged me for a scumbag before
Said she didn't ever want to see me no more
And I still don't why

I think I'm an alright guy
I think I'm an alright guy
Well I just want to live until I gotta die
I know I ain't perfect but God knows I try
I think I'm an alright guy
I think I'm alright

This one time for medicinal purposes they forced me to smoke some dope
I'm pretty sure I can still be the President
But I dont think I'll ever get to be the Pope
Well I get wild and I know I get drunk
It's not like I got a bunch of bodies in my trunk
My old man used to call me a no-good punk
And I still dont know why

I think I'm an alright guy
I think I'm an alright guy
Well I just want to live until I gotta die
I know I ain't perfect but God knows I try
I think I'm an alright guy
I think I'm alright

You know just the other night
The cops pulled me over outside the bar
When they turned on their lights
And they ordered me out my car
Man I was only kiddin' when I called 'em a couple of dicks
But still they made me do the stupid human tricks
Now I'm stuck in this jail with a bunch of dumb hicks
And I still don't know why

I think I'm an alright guy
I think I'm an alright guy
Well I just want to live until I gotta die
I know I ain't perfect but God knows I try
I think I'm an alright guy
I think I'm alright

Happy Holidays,old friends!(From Essie)

by Primadonna in

jw
friends

i'm just 'stopping by briefly' lol to wish happy holidays to old friends who may still be posting/lurking here...so many of you come to my mind on a regular basis, things you've said long ago continue to return to me when i need them and keep me going in a strong, forward direction.

my family continues to be amazed by the fact that four and a half years after my df'ing, i still haven't caved in and gone back.

for me, there is no going back.

Cowboy

Thanks ((((((((((Essie and family)))))))))).Happy holidays and much love to you and yours.

Gasoline Price in your area

by JH in

jw
friends

yesterday alone the price of gasoline went up 9 cents a liter here in eastern canada passing from 68 to 77 cents a liter.

a one day jump of 9 cents a liter is equal to about 40 cents a gallon.

so now we pay 77 cents a liter or 3.50$ a canadian gallon.

Cowboy

In s.w. Oklahoma,$1.23 a gallon now...We've been at $1.17 for quite awhile,with a couple of temporary jumps to the $1.23 - $1.26 range.

Yes,Vince did write that one in memory of his brother.

Here's some new country,from Cross Canadian Ragweed

BROKEN (Mike McClure / Cody Canada)

the "purple" album

Ain't it true what they say
Every dog has his day
I never had mine
I guess it was time
Send me on down the line
One piece at a time

She got her way
I bet it made her day
Through me off to the side
Took me out for a ride
Kicked me down to the curb
Now for all that it's worth
I'm lookin' to find
One that's broken like mine

Chorus:
Broken like mine
Or some piece of mind
I'll be happy when I find
A love less unkind
Broken like mine

I wish I was in her shoes
With nothin' left to lose
Carry myself down
To the lonely side of town
Tell her just how I feel
I need something now that's real
Don't you tell me that love is blind
A heart ain't got that kind of time
Unless it's broken like mine

(Repeat Chorus)

Go Rest High On That Mountain ~ Vince Gill

I know your life
On earth was troubled
And only you could know the pain
You weren't afraid to face the devil
You were no stranger to the rain

Chorus:
Go rest high on that mountain
Son, your work on earth is done
Go to heaven a shoutin'
Love for the Father and Son

Oh, how we cried the day you left us
We gathered round your grave to grieve
I wish I could see the angels faces
When they hear your sweet voice sing

Repeat Chorus 2x

An old favorite of mine from Hank Williams,Jr.

Dinosaur

Hey man them ain't high heel sneakers and they sure don't look like cowboy boots

and that ain't rock-n-roll you're playin and it sure ain't country or rhythm and blues

Your singin' a song about making love to your drummer. Well gay guitar pickers don't turn me on

and we don't all get into Donna Summer. Do you happen to know any ole Hank Williams songs?

Cause you see I'm a dinosaur I should have died out along time before.

Have pity on a dinosaur.Hand me my hat, excuse me man but where's the door?

It used to be I had alot of fun in this ole hangout.We'd get stoned at the jukebox and stay out of fights.

Now and then light a little smoke in the truck out back.Oh then a little ole Jim Beam and we'd get right.

You know these flashin' lights they sure make me dizzy and this disco is very strange to my ears.

It looks like they've turned the Longhorn into a spaceship and I'll be leaving as soon as I finish this beer.

Cause you see I'm a dinosaur.Should 've died out along time before.

There's a whole lot of dinosaurs.Give us our hats,excuse me man but where's the door?

Get us our hats, 'scuse me man,but where's the door?
