Rodney Crowell Album

Lovin All Night.

Now baby pull the covers back over my head
I don't wanna get up outa this bed
I don't wanna drag it on off to work
That big boss man is really a jerk

chorus:
We been lovin' all night, just about thrill me
Everything right, hope they don't kill me
I'm gonna live it just as long as I can
I'm gonna make it every part of my plan
Lovin' all night, hangin' on tight
No doubt about it baby, lovin' all night.....yeh

Now baby your as pretty as a fresh cut flower
When you show me how you love me in the wee small hours
While everybody's sleepin' all around this town
Lovin' all night makes the world go 'round

chorus:....We been lovin' ... etc

(lead break)

Ain't no use talkin' when your lookin' so fine
When your movin' your body up close to mine
We been rockin' with a rythmn of a beat our own
Baby I'm gonna love ya 'til the cows come home

chorus:...we been lovin'.....etc

She's a rounder I can tell you that
She can sing 'em all night too
She'll raise hell about the sleep she lost
Even cowgirls get the blues

Especially cowgirls they're the gypsy kind
And need their reins laid on 'em loose
She's lived to see the world turned upside down
Hitchin' rides out of the blue

Even cowgirls get the blues sometimes
Bound to don't know what to do sometimes
Get this feeling like she's too far gone
The only way she's ever been

Lonely nights are out there on the road
Motel ceiling stares you down
There must be safer ways to pay your dues
Even cowgirls get the blues

Even cowgirls get the blues sometimes
Bound to don't know what to do sometimes
Get this feeling like she's too far gone
The only way she's ever been

Even cowgirls get the blues sometimes
Bound to don't know what to do sometimes
Get this feeling like the restless wind
The only way she's ever been

I'll Give You The best Best you Baby.
That's All I Can Give.
And We'll Live The Best We Can Live it Baby
As Long A We As Live.

What Kind Of Love Never Turns You Down?
What Kind Of Love Lifts You Off The Ground?
Turns Your Life Around.

(Chorus)
What Kind Of Love Makes You Go Out In The Wind And Driving Rain?
What Kind Of Love Runs Through Your Heart With A Pleasure So Close to Pain?
What Kind Of Love?
Only This Love That I Have!

I'll Show You The Best I Can Show You Baby!
That's All I Can I Show You!
And I'll Know You The Best I Can Know You Baby,
As Long As I Know You.

What Kind Of Love Never Turns Away?
What Kind Of Love Never Makes You Pay,
Hears You When You Pray?

(Chorus)
What Kind Of Love Makes You Go Out In The Wind And Driving Rain?
What Kind Of Love Runs Through Your Heart With A Pleasure So Close to Pain?
What Kind Of Love? Only This Love That I Have!

This Love I know Is All I Have (All I Have)!
This Love I Have Is All I Know!
So I Won't Let Go?

What Kind Of Love Makes You Go Out In The Wind And Driving Rain?
What Kind Of Love Runs Through Your Heart With A Pleasure So Close to Pain?
What Kind Of Love, Only This Love That I Have! (repeat)

The sun is coming up and I'm just going down
Everywhere I look the world keeps turning round
Though I said I never would be satisfied
Baby I lied, I couldn't leave you if I tried

Sometimes I get lost out on this sad old town
And every bridge I cross just turns me upside down
And every stumbling step I take back to your side
Hurts my pride, I couldn't leave you if I tried

Well I could not walk away no matter what I say
I won't be leaving, believe it or don't
You're all that I want

Tears may fall but after all is said and done
Darlin' please believe me you're the only one
And I'll admit mistakes I've made me realize
Baby I lied, I couldn't leave you if I tried

I won't be leaving you no matter what I do
I'm gonna see it through to the end and do it again

Years may come and friends may go but that's ok
Darlin' you're the only one I need to stay
I know I said I never would be satisfied
Baby I lied, I couldn't leave you if I tried
I couldn't leave you if I tried

There were trains
And we out-run 'em
There were songs
And we out-sung 'em
There were brighter days never ending
There was time
And we were burnin'
There were rhymes
And we were learnin'
There was all the love two hearts could hold

And after all this time
You're always on my mind
Hey I could never let it end
'Cause my heart takes so long to mend
The dream that keeps your hopes alive
The lonely nights you hold inside
And after all this time
You're always on my mind
I still want you

There was rain
That we outlasted
There was pain
But we got past it
There were last goodbyes still left unspoken
There were ways I should have thrilled you
There were days I could have killed you
You're the only love my life has known

And after all this time
You're always on my mind
Hey I could never let you go
A broken heart that heals so slow
Could never beat for someone new
While you're alive and I am too
And after all this time
You're always on my mind
I still miss you

And I could never let it in
'Cause my heart takes so long to mend
The dream that keeps your hopes alive
The lonely nights you hold inside
And after all this time
You're always on my mind
I still want you
Hey after all this time
You're always on my mind
I still love you

Well the bus pulled away
In a roaring black cloud
Well I stood in the road
And Honey I hollered right out loud

Hey darling I love ya.
Hey bus driver woe!
But you can't stop a women when she's out of control.

She's crazy for leaving!
I told her so!
And the boys at the bus stop just said "man, let her go!"
She's crazy for leaving.
I told her so!
But you can't stop a women when she's out of control

So I punched out my truck on a telephone pole!
No. she never looked back she just said "go driver go!"
Well I know I could a caught her
But I ran outta luck!
She was long on to Lufkin by the time they cut me out of my truck

She's crazy for leaving.
I told her so!
And the boys at the bus stop just said "man, let her go!"
She's crazy for leaving I told her so.
But you can't stop a women when she's out of control.

So I kicked and I cussed that old East Texas road
I throw'd rocks at my truck, which had busted my nose
Ya add insult to injury and what do ya get?
Ya get a bus stop of honkies that don't ever forget!

She's crazy for leaving I told her so.
And the bus depot lady just said "Hun, just let her go!"
She's crazy for leaving I told her so!
But you can't stop a women when she's out of control.
No, you can't stop a women when she's out of control.

Ya know, she's probably already to Little Rock.

If today weren't just like any day perhaps I'd try
To shed this worn out skin so thick and learn to fly
But I came home to face your ice and steel
If looks could kill I would be gone today
There's a fire that's burning in your eyes not in your heart
I can fan the fames but I can't make a spark
I don't like the way I make you feel
If looks could kill I would be long since gone
If looks could kill then I'd be pushing up your daisies
If looks could kill then I would not be going crazy
There's a stool that I've been glued to for so many nights
and a bar to pour my heart out to and make it right
And I don't have to tell myself it's real
If looks could kill my heart would beat no more
If looks could kill then I'd be deep in peaceful slumber
If looks could kill then I would not be going under
There's a gun out in the hallway covered up in dust
That works well enough to turn a heartache into dust
Go on and let your lawyer make a deal
If looks could kill
If looks could kill
I would be long since gone

Fancy meeting you here, tonight
It's such a small world, New York ain't my town
I don't come around, but once in a while

This is such a surprise to see you
Girl, your looking so good; it's been a long time
Since you've crossed my mind
It's such a small world

Just one night on the town,
I came looking around for something to do

Just a change of my plans on leaving,
And I stay around and I run into you
Which just goes to prove it's such a small world

It's such a small world

I've lived alone for awhile

It's such a small world

It feels like I've gone out of style

You and me will always be
Just looking for something that's already happened
Years go by but you and I don't have to look beyond today

Maybe just for tonight
We can turn out the light

Lay your heart on the line
Let go of your mind

You know just what to say
You know just what to do

You still look like the day when I first met you

I'll be gone once again come morning
Like I've always done
But to see you tonight
Makes everything right, it's such a small world

Hey, right here you stand as if it was planned
It's such a small world

You lay there fighting for each breath
While angels hovered 'round your bed
With open arms like God?s own smile
They led you to the light

What a battle you have won
And now your journey has begun
To the land where spirits fly
And your soul will never die

So travel lightly in my heart
You and I will never part
And far beyond this world we see
There?s a place for you and me

And I thank my lucky stars
We had a chance to heal our scars
Now I don?t have to hang my head
Over things I wish I?d said

So here am I your only son
I?m thinking back on work we?ve done
You were strong and I was young
Man we had our fights

And everything I felt for you
Has been turned to something new
And this is love I feel today
It will never go away

So travel lightly in my heart
You and I will never part
Far beyond this world we see
There?s a place for you and me

And I thank the moon and stars
We had a chance to heal our scars
Now I don?t have to hang my head
Over things I wish I?d said

I don?t have to hide my tears
I don?t have to drown my fears
And I don?t have to hang my head
Over things I wish I?d said

No, I don?t have to live in dread
Over things I wish I?d said
