J. Michael Tracy male vocal/uptempo

Writes tunes, every evenin’, just like, he always wanted to

Knows soon, it’ll be his time

His wife, is his best friend, she says, he’s a dream come true

They ain’t rich but, she don’t mind

(climb)

They got land, in the mountains

Three kids, and countin’

(chorus)

He’s a man with a plan, for havin’ it all

The star of his own game, and he’s got the ball

He might stumble now and then, but he won’t fall

Cause he’s a man with a plan, for havin’ it all

(verse)

Looks forward, to the weekend, works hard, five days a week

And kicks back, with a fishn’ line

Ain’t nothin’, he’s lackin’, he’s findin’, what he really needs

Good family and, peace of mind

(climb)

(chorus)

(bridge)

Now it’s been said, of all good things, the best are free

If that’s wrong, he don’t know it, ya see cuz

(2nd chorus)

He’s a man with a plan, for havin’ it all 

The star of his own game, and he’s got the ball

He might stumble now and then, but he won’t fall

Cause that’s a man with a plan

And it’s a real good plan

I’m a man with a plan, for havin’ it all

(tag)

Havin’ it all  

I’m gonna have it all

I’ve got it all 

J. Michael Tracy male vocal/uptempo

It’s 10 to 12, Friday night, belly to the bar

Eatin Dunkin Donuts, wondrin who you are

I won’t get no second chance if I don’t speak up soon

Cause one like you don’t come along but once in a blue moon

Every time I glance at you—you look my way

I get these big fat butterflies and

What I’d like to say

(chorus)

Is what’s the Deal

Are you for real

I’m afraid you’ll disappear by midnight

You understand

I’m just a man

Ya got too much sex appeal

And I can’t help how I feel

Your just too good to be true

Now what’s the deal

(verse)

I stop to get my coffee and my donuts every night

Hopein that you’ll speak to me--stretchin every bite

Your fascinatin'—to watch, you have so many ways

Of packin up those donuts--Jelly filled or Glazed

I want to ask you for a date but I don’t think I can

You look at me, I’m paralyzed 

You’re messin up my plan

(chorus)

(bridge)

I might get the nerve some day to look you in the eye

It don’t matter what you say, I will still reply

(chorus)

(a tone poem) 

J. Michael Tracy-- male vocal/ballad

Like the colors that fade from old photographs

The love we had, just faded away

There was nothin' more that I could give

Said all I could say

(chorus)

But when you asked if I loved you,

And started to cry

I watched all my resolve

Begin to die

So I shook my head yes

And I still don’t know why

And damn your eyes

For makin’ me lie, makin’ me lie

(verse)

I’ve never been much good at pretendin

So I decided to leave

I really thought I’d convinced myself

That this was, meant to be

(chorus)

(inst. verse)

(chorus)

(tag)

So I shook my head yes

And I still don’t know why

And damn your eyes

For makin’ me lie, makin’ me lie

That ain’t no lie  

J. Michael Tracy  

You make me laugh, your smile’s so sweet

The sun shines everytime we meet

And I love the look that’s in your eye

I wanna watch our days roll past

My heart says “This one’s gonna last”

That’s a feelin I just can’t disguise

(chorus)

When you asked if I could stay

I said “Sure, if I can find a way”

And you know I will That ain’t no lie

That ain’t no lie

(inst. ½ verse)

(chorus)

(bridge)

But there’s somethin you should know

Sometimes you’re pretty slow

To-see-why-I-love you so

(verse)

When you’re here, I can fly

When you kiss my lips it makes me high

And believe me we won’t just get by, cause

(chorus)twice

(refrain)

That ain’t no lie
