J. Michael Tracy & Rick Lockwood male vocal/ballad

----Look at that guy

---In the mirror--lookin at me

--It’s a man with no clue

-A man who is lost---in a fantasy

Everyday I tell myself

--That you still care

But every night when I get home

There’s no one there

(chorus)

I could never tell a good lie

---Especially to you

It’s somethin I was never good at

---And I can’t do

My eyes are wide open but they

----Still don’t see

Cause I could never tell a good lie

To anyone----anyone but me

(verse)

----You were my life

--And I was so sure—that you’d never leave

--Everything was ok

-And that it would stay---if I just believed

Everyday I’d tell myself

--That you still care

But tonight when I get home

--You won’t be there cause

(chorus)

(bridge)

--I don’t know—why I believe—the things I say to me

You’d think—I’d learn my lesson-------and I would see that

(chorus) 

You can count on me

J. Michael Tracy male/female vocal---ballad

When I was four years old, Daddy left us alone

Chose another life, found another home

You would not give me up, and, walk away

Cause that’s not in your heart, you made sure I knew that

Every day of my life, you were there for me

But now

(chorus)

You live in a yesterday, where I can’t go

You ain’t commin’ back, and I miss you so

I won’t be leavin’ you, until you’re free

I promise Momma

You can count, on me

(verse)

You bought my first guitar, with some money you’d saved

From your second job, and you never complained

You worked so hard I know, just so I could play

And now it breaks my heart, that you don’t remember

Every day of my life, you were there for me

And now

(chorus)

(inst. verse)

(chorus)

J. Michael Tracy male vocal/uptempo

Sometimes she goes too far

She’ll drive me nuts and she wrecks my car

Still she says jump, I say how high

I hang around but don’t know why

(chorus)

Someday I might go and get my own life

But I don’t know

If I’ll ever find anything better

So I better go get’er

(verse)

She says things, she don’t mean

Then she treats me like her love machine

I know she don’t think I would

But should I go ahead and git while the gittin’s good?

(chorus)

(bridge)

There’s a line, in the snow that

I must cross before I go

But where it’s at, I don’t know

(Inst. ½ verse)

(chorus twice)

The way of the world

J. Michael Tracy male vocal/up tempo

I’m tired of being indebted, guilty feelin’s, I’ve done regretted

Serious committments ruled the day

Never learnin’ how to live, never learnin’ how to play

I look back at how I’ve been livin’, always takin’ and never givin’

Everything was overdone, straight and narrow’s only one

Lookin’ to the end as the beginnin’

(chorus)

I have gone the way of the world

Hoppin’ bars and honky tonks, havin’ fun with wicked girls

Don’t track me down to pick me up, you don’t need to be concerned

Cause I have gone the way of the world

(verse)

You don’t need to worry if you see me, headin’ for the night life in the city

Cause it’s somethin’ I just gotta do

I’ve come to think that life’s a trip and baby I’m just passin’ through cause

(chorus)

(bridge)

When we all think that we can see there comes a big surprise

And baby I’ve just opened up my eyes

(chorus)
