Because our task at the present moment is the task of understanding one another so thoroughly,
that there will be only one cause,
only one purpose

. . .


I see your momma and the candles
and the tears and roses
I see your daddy walk his daughter down the aisle
I feel my knees start to tremble as I tell the preacher
Don't she look beautiful tonight

All the wonderful words in my head I've been thinkin'
You know I wanna say them all just right
I lift your veil and angels start singin'
Such a heavenly sight

[Chorus:]
Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed
By feeling so absolute
there's no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waiting my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you

I smell the jasmine floatin' in the air like a love song
Watch my words draw sweet tears from your eyes
We bow our heads while the preacher talks to Jesus
Please bless this brand new life

[Chorus:]
Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed
By feeling so absolute
there's no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waiting my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you

[Chorus:]
Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed
By feeling so absolute
there's no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waiting my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you

. . .


I was raised by the good book
learned to work hard every day
Thought that if you can't say something good
there's nothing good to say
And I caught on pretty early it's no use to work
no harder than you play
So I guess that's how I ended up this way

[Chorus:]
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace
Is a place I keep finding myself
Yeah I get a little crazy trying to have a little fun
Then I end up back where I started from
Down on my knees, I pray
Oh Lord let me see another day
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace

Well I give everything I got, try to give more than I take
For Heaven's sake I keep on smiling
no matter what comes my way
And I may be passin' out on Friday night
But come Sunday I'll be passing the collection plate

[Chorus:]
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace
Is a place I keep finding myself
Yeah I get a little crazy trying to have a little fun
Then I end up back where I started from
Down on my knees, I pray
Oh Lord let me see another day
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace

Yeah I know I'm a sinner, but I've got faith
Oh my good side is what he's gonna see
When I'm standing at them Pearly Gates
He'll have nothing but mercy for me

[Chorus:]
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace
Is a place I keep finding myself
Yeah I get a little crazy trying to have a little fun
Then I end up back where I started from
Down on my knees, I pray
Oh Lord let me see another day
Somewhere between raising hell and amazing grace

A modern day Romeo and Juliet
American Tragedy
Low rent, high-rise lovers who met at the end of
Coronado Street
Crucifixes made in California gold
Two worlds bought to collide
Heaven can't help you if you go
Faster than angels fly

[Chorus:]
Well they burn the candle at both ends
As they danced into the flame
Making love and making plans
Diving Mother Mary insane
Strong as the beads of a rosary
Never too young to die
Some souls only know one speed
Faster than angels fly

Ghost-haunted barrio in Hollywood
Graffiti stained wailin' wall
Dead-end street gang up to no good
Out to make a retribution call
Sweet innocence caught in crossfire's fate
Too late to draw the line
Bullets can blow your dreams away
Faster than angels fly

[Chorus:]
Well they burn the candle at both ends
As they danced into the flame
Making love and making plans
Diving Mother Mary insane
Strong as the beads of a rosary
Never too young to die
Some souls only know one speed
Faster than angels fly

They were still holding hands
when all hell broke loose
They both left this world
with more than most truth lovers do

[Chorus:]
Well they burn the candle at both ends
As they danced into the flame
Making love and making plans
Diving Mother Mary insane
Strong as the beads of a rosary
Never too young to die
Some souls only know one speed
Faster than angels fly

Strong as the beads of a rosary
Never too young to die
Some souls only know one speed
Faster than angels fly

Eternity Intro

[No lyrics]

. . .


[Chorus:]
I've been looking for so long to find this place I see
And I've just got to believe it's more than a dream
Seems it's time I should move on
but I hope you come with me
Till we find eternity

Doing all I can to make things better
Everything I can to get things right
Baby when you're with me it's a little mroe like Heaven
Here in my mind, here in my mind

[Chorus:]
I've been looking for so long to find this place I see
And I've just got to believe it's more than a dream
Seems it's time I should move on
but I hope you come with me
Till we find eternity

Just can't let this old world get us down
There's too much beauty in this life
It should be so perfect
We shouldn't know we've made it to the other side
When we make it to the other side

[Chorus:]
I've been looking for so long to find this place I see
And I've just got to believe it's more than a dream
Seems it's time I should move on
but I hope you come with me
Till we find eternity

Oh you know it's got to be so beautiful
Oh and everyone is so free
Love, love is the only thing there is between you and me

[Chorus:]
I've been looking for so long to find this place I see
And I've just got to believe it's more than a dream
Seems it's time I should move on
but I hope you come with me
Till we find eternity

. . .


Sometimes whiskey, sometimes pills
The silly things I need to get my thrills
Sometimes women are like cocaine
Got to have 'em more and more every day

[Chorus:]
Yeah the man in the mirror ain't no man like I ought to be
Tell me why can't I see
when the devil gets the best of me

I've left heartaches thought they'd mend
I know how to lose some real good friends
I get angry, I stay mad
Can't get happy with this life I have

[Chorus:]
Yeah the man in the mirror ain't no man like I ought to be
Tell me why can't I see
when the devil gets the best of me

Now I'm a little wiser than I was back then
But still I'm stumblin' every day
Trying to walk a little straighter
Trying to find a way to forgive

[Chorus:]
Yeah the man in the mirror ain't no man like I ought to be
Tell me why can't I see
when the devil gets the best of me

[Chorus:]
Yeah the man in the mirror ain't no man like I ought to be
Tell me why can't I see
when the devil gets the best of me

Tell me why can't I see
when the devil gets the best of me

Radio Intro

[No lyrics]

. . .


On the road making noise
Rocking hard for all the girls and boys
We got the groove we got the songs
Our kinda music makes you sing along
Well jump on up in your chair
Everybody throw your hands up in the air
You're gonna scream until it hurts
You know you're gonna get your dollar's worth well

[Chorus:]
Crank it up tonight
when you hear us on your radio OH OH...
We'll take you for a ride
anywhere that you want to go OH OH...
Glad you all could make it out to the big show
One, two, three, four, hey hey here we go

A big city or a hick town
Soon or later we'll be coming around
We like to party with the rowdy croud
We like our fiddles and our guitars loud

[Chorus:]
Crank it up tonight
when you hear us on your radio OH OH...
We'll take you for a ride
anywhere that you want to go OH OH...
Glad you all could make it out to the big show
One, two, three, four, hey hey here we go

Crank it up tonight
when you hear us on the radio OH OH...
We'll take you for a ride
anywhere that you want to OH OH...
Glad you all could make it out to the Big & Rich show
One, two, three, four, hey hey here we go

Crank it up tonight when you hear us on your radio

. . .


It's complicated, when love has faded
And you can't hold on anymore
You gotta let go even though you know
Your heart's gonna hate it
And it just might break it

[Chorus:]
You never stop loving somebody
No matter what you tell yourself
You never stop loving somebody
You just, start loving somebody else

The only solution, is making the conclusion
That it's just another lesson in life
Even though it's over,
it's never really over at goodbye
No matter how hard you try

[Chorus:]
You never stop loving somebody
No matter what you tell yourself
You never stop loving somebody
You just, start loving somebody else

No matter what you say or what you do
Even when you find somebody new

[Chorus:]
You never stop loving somebody
No matter what you tell yourself
You never stop loving somebody
You just, start loving somebody else

Start loving somebody else

. . .


Run and I will run with you
Faster than light can move
And as far as you want to
Wings, maybe we don't have wings
But we can do anything, anything

Look at me, I'm dreaming
I just gave the moon a high five
Don't you know that freedom
Freedom is a place in your mind

Laugh, I'll laugh and cry with you
Until the grass turns blue
And the sky, bright green
'Cause I, I don't want anything
Less than everything here with you

Look at me, I'm dreaming
I just gave the moon a high five
Don't you know that freedom
Freedom is a place in your mind

And if we let go
(If we let go)
Maybe we'll rise
(Maybe we'll rise)

Up to the clouds
(Up to the clouds)
And find a new high

Baby, let go, baby, let go
Baby, let go
(Baby, let go)

Look at me, I'm dreaming
I just gave the moon a high five

. . .


There goes the neighborhood

Please man, don't call the police, man
Why can we just be friends
And try to get along?

I don't wanna hurt no one
I just wanna have a little fun
So I'm begging you
Please man, don't call the police, man

I didn't know the stereo was playing so loud
(Turn it up)
I didn't know, the Go-Go girls were dancing
(Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it)

It's out of sight, it's alright
So let me get you a cold Red Stripe

And please man, don't call the police, man
Why can we just be friends
And try to get along?
(We don?t like those country records)

I don't wanna hurt no one
I just wanna have a little fun
So I'm begging you
Please man, don't call the police, man

I didn't mean to cause a scene
Make anyone man
For goodness sake, no need to hate
We were just playin'

So count to ten, do it again
(Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four)
You do anything you like, my friend
(Three, two, one, one, one, one)

But please man, don't call the police, man
Why can we just be friends
And try to get along?
(We don?t like those country records)

Don't wanna hurt no one
I just wanna have a little fun
So I'm begging you
Please man, don't call the police, man
(Check my country swagger, yo)

I dress in black like the late Johnny Cash
Snatch more cash than Willie Nelson
Why you undercover that? We could split the profits, man

I'm a gambler like Kenny Rodgers
My t-shirt says
'The Devil Went Down To Georgia Like Charlie Daniels'

Back in the crib, I'm watching Reba
I hear the helicopters, police bust the door down
I in court getting judged by the judge

I got acquitted 'cause they love them cowboys
Cowgirls call me Wyclef Jean
With those Big & Rich Boys?

Be friends and try to get along

I don't wanna hurt no one
I just want to have a little fun
So I'm begging you
Please man, don't call the police, man

Yeah, I'm begging you
Please man, don't call the police, man

. . .


She was a fast machine,
She kept her motor clean
She was the best damn woman that I've ever seen
Had the sightless eyes
Tellin' me no lies
Knockin' me out with those American thighs
Takin' more than her share,
Had me fightin' for air
She told me to come, but I was already there
And the walls start shakin', the earth was quakin'
My mind was achin'
And we were makin' it and

You shook me all night long
Yeah honey you shook me all night long

Workin' double-time
On the seduction line
She was one of a kind, Just mine all mine
Wanted no applause,
Just another course
Made a meal outta me and come back for more
Had to cool me down
To take another round
Now I'm back in the ring to take another swing
And the walls were shakin', the earth was quakin'
My mind was achin'
And we were makin' it and

You shook me all night long
Yeah honey you shook me all night long

You shook me all night long
Yeah honey you shook me all night long

. . .


Loosen up, shout it out, everybody in the house
Stomp your feet, clap your hands, come on, kick it with the band
We're all about tradition, we don't mind the twang
We got just one condition now

We like it loud, we like it honking
The party won't be revving 'til we crank it to eleven
Get it rocking, our boots are knocking
We're gonna say it proud, we love our country and we like it loud

Calling all the cowboys, don't be scared to make some noise
You think you're bad, think you're strong, come on, people, bring it on
Calling all you sexy mamas, all the girls next door
Don't say we didn't warn you, baby

We like it loud, we like it honking
The party won't be revving 'til we crank it to eleven
Get it rocking, our boots are knocking
We're gonna say it proud, we love our country and we like it loud

From out in California, New York to Tennessee
Come on if you with us, let us hear you scream
Like it loud, we like it loud
We like it loud, we like it, we like it

We like it loud, we like it honking
The party won't be revving 'til we crank it to eleven
Get it rocking, our boots are knocking
We're gonna say it proud, we love our country and we like it loud
We love our country and we like it loud
