Randy Rogers Band Album

You only want what you can't have,
And that's all there is to you
You've got your head in the clouds,
And your heart is bulletproof

You've got everything you want,
Yeah but you don't care
Because you never do, until they disappear

I've tried my best,
I can't try anymore
It's no use,
You've got a lock on your door

You'd be wise, to realize
That what i've got is real,
Yeah but you're too busy burning bridges
To know how you feel

You only want what you can't have,
LyricsAnd that's all there is to you
You've got your head in the clouds,
And your heart is bulletproof

You've got everything you want,
Yeah but you don't care
Because you never do, until they disappear

I see you talking to him
Just like you do everyone,
Well he's gettin lost
But for you its just fun

The way you mesmerize,
with those blue eyes
And long, curly hair
The way you say my name
When you play those games,
tell me how can this be fair

You only want what you can't have,
And that's all there is to you
You've got your head in the clouds,
And your heart is bulletproof

You've got everything you want,
Yeah but you don't care
Because you never do, until they disappear

You only want what you can't have,
And that's all there is to you
You've got your head in the clouds,
And your heart is bulletproof

You've got everything you want,
Yeah but you don't care
Because you never do, until they disappear

Yeah we never do, until they disappear

Tell me what you think I should do
Cause I just cant understand you
Im about to speak my mind
Even if its a waste a time

Cause everybody knows that Im to blame
None of your friends even know my name
Even if I tried to be true
If I walk a line, I'd still be losing you

Now you act like you still care
Even though you know its not fair
You still call me on the telephone
But only when you're all alone

Cause everybody knows that Im to blame
None of your friends even know my name
Even if I tried to be true
If I'd walk a line, I'd still be losing you

LyricsWe both know we let a good thing go to waste
My bags a packed now, Ill be on my way (adios)

Everybody knows that Im to blame
None of your friends even know my first name
Even if I tried to be true
If I'd walk a line,

Everybody knows that Im to blame
none of your friends even know my dogs name
Even if I tried to be true
If I'd walk a line, I'd still be losing you
If I'd walk a line, I'd still be losing you

Woke up today and things had changed
The man become just ain't the same
Wanted to run but there was just no where to go
Livin' in a dream world
Prayin' it don't show

(Chorus)
Because who I am
Is who you want me to be
But I'm havin' a hard time findin' me
Take my hand darlin'
Won't you let me go
Gotta do this by myself
That's one thing I know

Livin' my life on low fuel
Tellin' myself that I'm a damn fool
All of my friends tell me how I'm free
Did you know I almost lost it yesterday?

Lyrics(Chorus)

Got these demons on my trail
Crazy and messed up
No one else can tell

(Chorus)
Gotta do this on my own
Thats one thing I know

Day after day,
I tell mmyself you never meant the words that you said,
Night after night I lie here alone,
can't get you out of my head,
Like a fool I let our love slip away,
Left me here what more can I say,

CHORUS:
Miss my chance lost my turn,
My ship sank, I crased and burned
Broke your heart then I let my self
down, Lost the fight lost the game,
Now theres only me left to blame,
If you wander where I am check the
lost and found.

Time after time I feel short of the man you needed me to be,
Lie after lie I left you no choice but to pack your clothes and leave,
Got to much pride to beg you to stay,
But before you go just let me say
Lyrics
CHORUS:
Miss my chance lost my turn,
My ship sank, I crased and burned
Broke your heart then I let my self
down, Lost the fight lost the game,
Now theres only me left to blame,
If you wander where I am check the
lost and found

My ship sank ,I crased and burned ,
Broke your heart then I let my self down ,
Lost the fight I lost the game ,
Now thers only me left to blame,
If you wander where I am check the lost and found.
If you want to find me.

Well it didn’t matter, Tommy Jackson was running free
Cause the man he killed never mattered much to me
There’s talk in our town, about where Tommy might run
Wondered if it mattered, that he’d used my gun

80 miles east of the line, down on my granddaddy’s farm
He laid low just for the night, slept there in our barn
I watched him steal our Ford and drive away in the sun
18 years of getting older, now a dead man on the run

CHORUS:
Isn’t love a funny thing, with a pistol in your hand
Close your eyes, and bow your head, pray if you can
Well you sealed your fate when you picked up that shotgun
18 years of getting older, now a dead man on the run

15 days he kept his conscience between the line
His ex-wife and a cold jail cell were always on his mind
Ran out of money at an east-bound truckstop
He found work there in Fritz’s muffler shop
Lyrics
Fritz was a good man, and Pamela was his wife
2 kids, a nice home and on the surface a nice life
Drunk on whiskey, Pam and Tommy had some fun
18 years of getting older, now a dead man on the run

CHORUS

On the run

Every Sunday morning, she goes down to the place where he lays
Tells Tommy how she never wanted things this way
Rest in peace Tommy Jackson, 1981
18 years of getting older, now a dead man on the run

CHORUS

18 years of getting older, now a dead man on the run
On the run

CHORUS:
Well I’m so sick and tired of all your hissy fits
We got irreconcilable differences
If we could just say no to this relationship
We could be best friends with benefits

That’s right, that’s what I said
It’s the best thought I ever had
What do you say, we’ve got nothing to lose
You get yours, and I get mine
That’s where we draw the line
I’m leavin it up to you

CHORUS

Well nobody has to know
Do you really want to let this go
Just because we can’t get along
Oh baby, it’s a foolproof plan
Let me be your lovin man
I don’t see how we could go wrong

CHORUS

I could search high and low to find somebody new
Every road I travel down leads right back to you

CHORUS

C’mon let’s be best friends with benefits

I guess you’ve heard by now that I’ve decided
I’m not going to waste any more time on you
It was quite a flame that we ignited
It’s too bad that you had such a hard time staying true

I don’t know where all this trouble started
Well we jumped in, I guess I sank too deep
I don’t hold it against you, the way we parted
I blame it on the company you keep

CHORUS:
Don’t blame me if I don’t send you roses anymore
Don’t blame me, if I don’t kiss your hand and hold the door
Well there’s just too many others, I hate to compete
Honey when I’m gone, you can blame it on the company you keep

I had to watch your promises expire
Like a coupon in the Sunday classified
I used to cry, but now I’m too damn tired
One thing is for sure, you can’t say I never tried

CHORUS

Honey when I’m gone, you can blame it on the company you keep

Well it's been a hard week
chasin down these miles,
tryin desperately to find a reason to smile.

it's been some time now
long overdue i know
baby put on your favorite dress
just let go

we'll go downtown
stop at the first bar we see
yeah we can throw em down
baby just you and me
we'll shoot the lights out
so no one else can see
yeah we'll close our eyes and wish it was like it used to be

everyone falls when a wolf comes to your front door.
those guys who've got it all
all they want is more.
Lyricsi spent my last dime
to see you smile tonight
tell me baby what can i do to get this right

if we go downtown
stop at the first bar we see
yeah we can throw em down
baby just you and me
we'll shoot the lights out
so no one else can see
yeah we'll close our eyes and wish it was like it used to be.

yeah well let's go downtown
stop at the first bar we see
yeah we can throw em down
baby just you and me
we'll shoot the lights out
so no one else can see
yeah we'll close our eyes and wish it was like it used to be

yeah we'll close our eyes and wish it was like it used to be

You look pretty good, for all that you've seen
You're smiles still as bright as its ever been
You wont show your eye, scared that they might
Show all the world what you told me last night

And you're so tired of just being alive
You're so sad you could just cry
I'd sing you the sweetest songs, and hold you so long.
And make you forget all the reasons
you talked about leaving this place
If you're thinking about leaving
I could give you a reason to stay

You seem pretty calm, for what you have done
Your always rehursted, you impress everyone
You cover so well, that no one can tell
Your skin is on fire, and your heart is in hell

And you're so tired of just being alive
You're so sad you could just cry
LyricsI'd sing you the sweetest songs, and hold you so long.
And make you forget all the reasons
you talked about leaving this place
If you're thinking about leaving
I could give you a reason to stay

If you got to go, then you oughta know
I wont stand in your way. Just give me time
I'll change you mind
Soon you'll forget yesterday

I'd sing you the sweetest songs, and hold you so long.
And make you forget all the reasons
you talked about leaving this place
If you're thinking about leaving
I could give you a reason to stay

A reason to stay, wont you stay with me tonight.
A reason to stay. Wont you stay with me one more time

Wish I were back on Copano Bay
With my sail rig up, soakin up some rays
Thinkin back, about life on the bay
I’m captain of my memories, as my thoughts drift away

CHORUS:
In my mind I still feel the rhythm of the waves
Part of me stays on Copano Bay, never left behind

Winding down, enjoying friends, catchin reds
Sailing high, in the night, that’s the life I’ve lived
Today I’m cresting on a landlubbers dream
Tomorrow I’ll be sailing on Copano’s glean

CHORUS

Today I’m cresting on a landlubbers dream
Tomorrow I’ll be sailing on Copano’s glean

CHORUS

Today I’m cresting on a landlubbers dream
Tomorrow I’ll be sailing on Copano’s glean

Yeah tomorrow I’ll be sailing on Copano’s glean

The day she left me behind
i couldn't get her off my mind
thinking about all the times we had
but i'm a new man now
just don't ask me how
i know it's hard to belive
when that sun goes down
you can find me out painting the town
drinking away what used to be
cause i've got nothing to prove
and there's nothing left for me to lose
nothing more to me than just a memory
go out every night.
up til the morning light
having the time of my life
when i see you out with him
all i can do is grin
glad it's not me whose missing out
when that sun goes down
you can find me out painting the town
Lyricsdrinking away what used to be
cause i've got nothing to prove
and there's nothing left for me to lose
nothing more to me than just a memory
when that sun goes down
you can find me out painting the town
drinking away what used to be
cause i've got nothing to prove
and there's nothing left for me to lose
nothing more to me than just a memory

(Hidden Track)

Well I knew I had to have her so I sent off in the mail
I saw her picture in that magazine
And when the postman brought her, I thrilled as I blew up
The prettiest plastic girl you'd ever seen

I called the new girl Wendy and Wendy blew my mind
Figured that I'd keep her around
Her plug kept her inflated and when I had it in
But when I pulled it out she'd go down

Chorus:
She's a life sized, wife sized, full grown blow up plastic girl, nothin's missin'
Yeah she never had a headache, she ain't got bad breath when we're kissin'
Yeah she's there when you need her, she's more than just a friend
And her skin is as smooth as a pearl
She's a life sized, wife sized, full grown blow up plastic girl


LyricsWell I didn't tell nobody except my best friend Earl
You can't trust just anyone you see
When I'd come home late at night all tired from makin' pizzas
Wendy, she'd be waitin' there for me

One night I came home anxious with Wendy on my mind
And it broke my heart in two when I walked in
And I found the one I'd always thought would always be just mine
Layin' there with Earl my best friend

Chorus

I never dreamed that Wendy would be the cheatin' kind
I never figured Earl would let me down
But you don't know what can happen in these modern mixed up times
Cause there's a lot of wierdos runnin' round
