IDLE HOURVERSE There’s a place down the street
Where my friends congregate And when we sit on those bar stools We’re not alone 10 am the lights are on Beer’s cold, the whiskey’s strong And we’re drowning those memories One by one CHORUS You can meet me at the idle hour Where the juke box plays all those country songs If you’re tryin’ to hang on
To a love that’s dead and gone With too many reasons not to go back home
VERSE The neon lights are bright Even tho it’s past midnight And the band’s packed up and moved on Stare at the clock on the wall Bartender says last call And I start missin’ her most of all
CHORUS So, you can meet me at the idle hour Where the juke box plays all those country songs So if you’re tryin’ to hang on To a love that’s dead and gone With too many reasons not to go back home Too many reasons not to go back home

SOUTH CAROLINA WALTZ VERSEIt was early spring Cherry blossoms were bloomin’ And the sun settin’ low in the palmetto sky
Sally Ann took the hand
Of Sir William Lewis And fell in love as they danced to The South Carolina Waltz
VERSE He was a sailor Who came from South Hampton From a ship building family, though we never pried Sally Ann had her man, Sir William Lewis And they danced and they swayed to the South Carolina Waltz
CHORUS We always knew
That it was forever Like the dawn of the rest of their lives From that night on, they were always together Side By Side
VERSE It was late in the fall When winter came callin’ And the sun sinkin’ low in the palmetto sky Sally Ann took the hand of sir William Lewis And they sailed off together for a late sunset ride But the autumn winds can be unforgiving And from out of nowhere their boat capsized And Sally Ann grabbed the hand of Sir William Lewis And we found them together on the shore where they died
Short Instrumental break
Now it’s early spring Cherry blossoms are bloomin’ And the sun settin’ low in the palmetto sky

I DON'T MATTER ANYWAY VERSE There’s a rumor goin’ round this little town Say you’re gonna throw my love away Well tell me where do you get off I’m the one having second thoughts And I don’t think we can last another day
CHORUS So We can talk about it We can sleep on it But I ain’t gonna meet you face to face Cause I’m beginnin’ to see
What you don’t mean to me And it really doesn’t matter anyway
VERSE You’ve got a new boyfriend, and I’m real free Let’s just call a spade a spade I’m eatin’ real well, and takin’ care of myself It’s something I gave up on along the way
CHORUS So we can talk about it We can sleep on it But I ain’t gonna meet you face to face Cause I’m beginnin’ to see
What you don’t mean to me And it really doesn’t matter anyway
REPEAT CHORUS We can talk about it We can sleep on it But I ain’t gonna meet you face to face Cause I’m beginnin’ to see

I was born in a haze of bullets late november late 70's Never did I want for anything anytime Never did I crawl down on my knees
I was taught to hold my head up And my two fists when the time was right I listened to the clash I loved my brothers Never hesitated when I had to fight.
I came of age in the early 90's then the fear start creeping in fear of success fear of failure am I better or worse than him

Through all the years We’ve seen a million tears. They’ve all run dry Down our jawbones and beards. Through troubles and strife We’ve turned our alright. Oh, I’ve got a friend in you.
When all the roads Have led to all the sea’s And it feels like there’s No more rivers left to see. When storms fill our sails And tree’s block our trails, Oh, I’ve got a friend in you.
Amazing grace How sweet it sounds? To carry my load Until new day in found. For when we were lost Adventure all around. I’ve still got a friend in you.

Life’s become so fragile now that I care But I guess that means that I’m Getting somewhere Remember the time Laying in your bedWhen you told me that you loved me And you stroked my head
And I stared out the open window I’d even told you That one night howWords don’t mean a thing But it’s alright Cause every time I open my mouth And I wanna tell you something But something else comes out
But do you know that I need you nowI’m trying to tell you but I don’t know how So much frustration in my Untidy roomThat you thoughtfully went andGot me a broom But inside my room Is a messy mind that isTangled and twisted And untied
You know that I’m not too organisedI’m trying to be but I don’t have the time The cement in my headWas making me sinkBut you pulled me up and it hurts a little less to think So life’s a little fragile But I guess it always isWhen you’ve got some sort of reasonThat makes you wanna live But will you share a bit of the weightI’ve carried it with me for 21 years straight
