Piece Of My Heart
Written by Bert Berns & Jerry Ragavoy
Didn't make you feel like you were the only man?
And didn't I give you everything that a woman possibly can?
Each time I tell myself I think I've had enough
Well, I'm gonna show you baby that a woman can be tough
So, come on, come on, come on and
Chorus
Take it
Take another little piece of my heart now baby
Take another little piece of my heart
I know you will
Break it
Break another little piece of my heart now baby
'Cause you know you got it if it makes you feel good, so good
You're out on the street lookin' good baby
Deep down in your heart you know that it ain't right
No you'll never hear me cryin' you you know I cry all the time
Each time I tell myself that I can't stand the pain
So come on, come on, come on and
Chorus
Each time I tell myself that I can't stand the pain
You hold me in your arms ans I start singin' once again
So, come on, come on, come on

Bed Of Roses
Written by Will Rambeaux & Jaime Kyle
There's something 'bout your manner
That makes it hard to see
Just how you take advantage
Of a workin' girl like me
I've seen you set 'em up
And I've seen you take 'em down
Our love is legal tender
For your kind to pass around
Chorus
Don't want your bed of roses
Don't want no handful of thorns
Don't want to be your livin' doll
Don't want to be no woman scorned
I don't want to watch you turn the page
When your chapter closes
No, I'm not gonna lay me down
In your bed of roses
I've tasted good and bad love
In the honky-tonks and bars
I've settled for the moon
When I was reachin' for the stars
and though sometimes I have stumbled
I've been known to fall
It was always true love
That took me to the wall
Repeat Chorus
Girl, you better hide your love away
Girl, you better save it for another day

You Will Be Mine
Written by Rob Honey
Heads I win, Tails you lose
I always play by my own rules
And I don't believe in wasting time
So long before we end this night
Chorus
I will have held you
I will have kissed you
I will have claimed you
You will be mine
I will have loved you
Wrong or right
I will have your heart
You will be mine
An unwritten law says a girl should wait
Should let the man set his own place
But a woman in love, she's above the law
So long before this night is gone
Repeat Chorus
You top my list of things to do
And I will get close to you
Before this night is through
It Matters To Me
Written by Mark D. Sanders & Ed Hill
Baby tell me where'd you ever learn
To fight without sayin' a word
Then waltz back in to my life
Like it's gonna be alright
Don't you know how much it hurts
Chorus
When we don't walk
When we don't touch
When it doesn't feel like we're even in love
It matters to me
When I don't know what to say
Don't know what to do
Don't know if it really even matters to you
How can I make you see
It matters to me
Maybe I still don't understand
The distance between a woman and a man
So tell me how far it is
And how you can love like this
'Cause I'm not sure I can
Take Me As I Am
Written by Bob Dipiero & Karen Staley
Baby, don't turn out the light
I wanna see you look at me
Whisper only truth tonight
No just promisees and empty fantasies
Chorus
I don't need a bed of roses
'Cause roses wither away
All I really need is honesty
From someone with a strong heart, a gentle hand
Who'll take me as I am
Baby, I need you to know
Just exactly how I feel
Fiery passions come and go
I'd trade a million pretty words for one touch that is real
Repeat Chorus
You Can't Lose Me
Written by Trey Bruce & Thom McHugh
A little girl, a little small for her age
A little too slow for the field day race
Momma's waiting at the finish line
And wipes the teardrops from her eyes
She says, "You did jut fine honey, that's okay
Sometimes life's just that way
You're gonna lose the race from time to time
But you're always gonna find
Chorus
You can't lose me
Bet your life
I am here and I will always be
Just a wish away
Wherever you go
No matter how far
My love is where you are
You won't be lost if you believe
You can't lose me"
Momma used to say, "Girl it won't be long
'Til it's time to go out on your own
Chase your dreams, find your place in life
I know you'll do just fine"
When that day finally came
There were things she needed to but could not say
So I whispered softly as I wiped
The tears from Momma's eyes
Chorus
You can't lose me
Bet your life
I am here and I will always be
Just a wish away
Wherever I go
No matter how far
My love is where you are
You won't be lost if you believe
You can't lose me
Just About Now
Written by Gary Burr & Jon Vezner
Just about now I'd be watching you wake up
Feeling my heart beat with yours
Just about now is when we would make love
Like all of the mornings before
But I know it don't help to turn the clock back
'Cause I'm not gonna make it 'til I face this act
Chorus
This is not about traing to go back in time
This is not about where I'll be a year down the line
It's just moment to moment, surviving somehow
This is not about then, this is just about now
Just about now you'd pull in the driveway
And I'd be theere waving hello
Run to my arms, you'd kiss me and hold me
As if you'd never let go
And it's just about now when the tears start to fall
I wonder if I'm gonna make it at all
Repeat Chorus
It's just moment to moment, surviving somehow
This is not about then, this is just about now

Since I Laid Eyes On You
Written by Ellen Shipley, Billy Steinberg & Sandy Stewart
Why did i show my hand?
Now you know your wish is my command.
I've never longed for things I didnt have,
But thats no longer true.
Since i laid eyes on you.
I know I'm not the same,
I dont need a fortune, dont care about fame.
But my soul is a burning flame,
Can't sleep the whole nite thru.
Since i laid eyes on you.
I want your sweet caress,
I've dreamed of your tenderness.
Oh I've never ever felt like this, i swear.
Look what youve done for me,
Oh boy its poetry,
When I see the wind in your hair.
The tears well up inside.
Oh, what will turn the tide.
I've been waiting for you to decide that you love me too,
Since i laid eyes on you.
What else could i do.
Since i laid eyes on you.
Let's Go To Vegas
Written by Karen Staley
Lyin' on the bank of the river
Stars are dancin', Lord it's hot
Holdin' you is what I live for
I just had a crazy thought
Chorus
Hey Baby, let's go to Vegas
Kiss the single life good-bye
Hey Baby, let's go to Vegas
Bet on love and let ride it
We'll find a little wedding chaple
A pair of rings and a preacher too
Underneath the neon steeple
We'll take a gamble and say "I do"
Repeat Chorus
Viva Las Vegas, sparklin' lights
Dangerous livin', tumblin' dice
You're my ace in the hole now honey
And I'm your lady luck
Pack a few things and a little money
And put 'em in the truck
Repeat Chorus
Wild One
Written by Jaime Kyle
They said change your clothes
She said no I won't
They said comb your hair
She said some kids don't
And her parents's dreams went up in smoke
They said you can't leave
She said yes I will
They said don't see him
She said his name is Bill
She's on a roll and it's uphill
Chorus
She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said you can be everything you want to be
She's a wild one runnin' free
She loves Rock and Roll
They said it's Satan's tongue
She thinks they're too old
They think she's too young
And the battle lines are clearly drawn
Repeat Chorus
She has future plans and dreams at night
When they tell her life is hard she says that's all right
Repeat Chorus
Keep Walkin' On
Written by Karen Staley & Tricia Walker
Well, in this world of sorrow, trouble and temptation
Jesus always promised trial and tribulation
Then he said, "You don't have to fret or fear
Children be of good cheer and keep on walkin' on"
Keep walikin' on, childre, keep walkin' on, a-keep walkin' on
In Jesus Christ the truth is found
He'll keep you feet on solid ground
Sometimes we have to just believe
But he put it in the book for us to read
Satan you can't fool this girl
My Lord overcame this world
And I'm walkin' on, yeh I'm walkin' on
Lord, I'm walkin' on, yeah I'm walkin' on
When Jesus walked on the water, Peter walked on it too
God gave you the power to do what you cannot do
Every road we travel he's traveled down before
There ain't no need to worry where it leads so anymore
I'm walkin' on, I'm walkin' on, I'm walkin' on
I'm walkin' on, I'm walkin' on, I'm walkin' on
Well the road is narrow and it's straight
But it leads right up to the Golden Gate
It may be rought, it may be long
But I don't have to walk alone
Step by step and day by day
He takes my hand and I hear Him say
Keep on walkin' on, gotta keep kalkin' on
Oh, keep walkin' on, oh keep walkin' on
What you gonna do, can't pay the rent
Yeah what you gonna do when the money's spent
What you gonna do when you just can't cope
Hey, what you gonna do when you're outta hope
Oh keep walkin' on, oh keep on walkin' on
I've Got This Friend
Written by Faith Hill, Bruce Burch & Vern Dant
I've got this friend who is lonely
She's afraid she'll never find he one and only
A little shy but she can be fun
If the right guy came long
Would you know someone?
I've got this friend and it sounds crazy
But he's been feeling that way too a whole lot lately
And interest, oh I'm sure he'd be
I can almost speak for him
He's that close to me
Chorus
Maybe in each other
They might find the lover
They've been missin' until now
They'd trust the judgement of
Two friends like us who care so much
Can we get them together... somehow
I've got this friend
Yeah, I think I know her
My arms can almosst feel the way he'd hold her
It's like he's here when you describe him
And if he's anything like you I'm sure she'd like him
Repeat Chorus
Can we get together... I've got this friend
Someone Else's Dream
Written by Craig Wiseman & Trey Bruce
Her momma's still got that sequin gown that she wore in '68
She taught her early how to smile that smile and wave from the parade
It took a whole lot of years and tears
For her momma to finally admit
No matter how many stitches and pins
That old dress was never gonna fit
Chorus
She was daddy's little girl
Momma's little angel
Teacher's pet, Pageant queen
She said, "All my life I've been pleasin' everyone but me,
Waking up in someone else's dream"
Her daddy used to say, "You'll make a lovely bride someday
He'll ride up on a big white horse and just carry you away"
It took twenty-five years and some broken vows
Before they'd finally see
There's a little more to love and life
Than fairy tales and hand me down dreams
Repeat Chorus
Now she's twenty-seven candles on her cake
And she means to make her life her own
Before she's twenty-eight
Repeat Chorus
Go The Distance
Written by Trey Bruce, Tom McHugh & Faith Hill
You got me headed in a new direction
Got no reason to turn around
Ain't no looking back or second guessing
It's time to find what love is really all about
Chorus
Go the distance
Let our hearts lead us on
All the way to forever tonight
Can't resist it
The feelin's way too strong
Go the distance this time
The road to love is paved with shiftin' gravel
We may find ourselves on shaky ground
And there ain't no place that these two hearts can't travel
Even when we're miles apart together we are bound to
Repeat Chorus
There will be rainy days and bridges left to cross
But if we lose our way we can't get lost if we
Repeat Chorus
I Would Be Stronger Than That
Written by Gary Burr
There's a friend who will call
When her husband's asleep
Crossing the phone lines for comfort
And she cries that she needs him and
Someday he'll change
And now's not a good time to go
And it isn't my place to say leave him and run
That no love is worth all the damage he's done
But if she'll hold her ground
Then I'll hold my tongue, ever the diplomat
Oh, I'd like to think
That I would be stronger than that
Chorus
Where's her head?
Where's her nerve?
Does part of her think this is all she deserves?
Oh, I would be stronger
I would not stay one minute longer
I would be stronger than that
It started out good, they usually do
Then one day it's taken for granted
'Til words become weapons and love turns to pain
Oh, why is she still holding on
She says living without him is too hard to face
And I try to imagine myself in her place
But with well chosen words and well placed tears
She forgives him in two second flat
Oh, I'd like to think
That I would be stronger than that
Repeat Chorus
I know what she's thinking and I know what she'd say
Thta my life and her life are like night and day
And her love is the love that will save him
Brave words but I don't believe them
Repeat Chorus
Oh, I would be stronger
I would not wait one minute longer
I would be stronger than that
