I've been known to have a drink or two
In the comfort of my home
It helps to minimize the crazy things
I hear when I'm alone
You'd think by now that every sound
Wouldn't send her memory crashing through my brain
I wouldn't mind the shackles if it wasn't for the rattle of the chain
Certain little things she used to say
They come through loud and clear
It's sad but I admit I listen closer than I did
When she was here
Now every noise sounds like her voice
And I'm torn between the pleasure and the pain
I wouldn't mind the shackles if it wasn't for the rattle of the chain
I wouldn't mind the shackles, I knew the day she left
That I'd be wearing them until the end of time
But every day's a battle just to keep the burden of my heart
From interfering with my mind
It's knowing that I'll always have her last goodbye
Ringing in my ears, driving me insane
I wouldn't mind the shackles if it wasn't for the rattle of the chain
Now it seems like everytime I turn around here it comes again
Someone else is telling me about the brand new love she wound up in
I tell myself they all mean well
But I still tremble at the mention of her name
I wouldn't mind the shackles if it wasn't for the rattle of the chain
I wouldn't mind the shackles, I knew the day she left
That I'd be wearing them until the end of time
But every day's a battle just to keep the burden of my heart
From interfering with my mind
It's knowing that I'll always have her last goodbye
Ringing in my ears, driving me insane
I wouldn't mind the shackles
If it wasn't for the rattle of the chain
No I wouldn't mind the shackles
If it wasn't for the rattle of the chain
I Miss My Friend lyrics - Darryl Worley
I miss the look of surrender in your eyes
The way your soft brown hair would fall
I miss the power of your kiss when we made love
But baby most of all
I miss my friend
The one my heart and soul confided in
The one I felt the safest with
The one who knew just what to say to make me laugh again
And let the light back in
I miss my friend
I miss the colors that you brought into my life
Your golden smile, those blue-green eyes
I miss your gentle voice in lonely times like now
Saying it'll be alright
I miss my friend
The one my heart and soul confided in
The one I felt the safest with
The one who knew just what to say to make me laugh again
And let the light back in
I miss my friend
I miss those times
I miss those nights
I even miss our silly fights
The making up
The morning talks
And those late afternoon walks
I miss my friend
The one my heart and soul confided in
The one I felt the safest with
The one who knew just what to say to make me laugh again
And let the light back in
I miss my friend
I miss my friend
I miss my friend
Mmmmmmmm
I miss my friend
Mmmmmmmm
The way your soft brown hair would fall
I miss the power of your kiss when we made love
But baby most of all
I miss my friend
The one my heart and soul confided in
The one I felt the safest with
The one who knew just what to say to make me laugh again
And let the light back in
I miss my friend
I miss the colors that you brought into my life
Your golden smile, those blue-green eyes
I miss your gentle voice in lonely times like now
Saying it'll be alright
I miss my friend
The one my heart and soul confided in
The one I felt the safest with
The one who knew just what to say to make me laugh again
And let the light back in
I miss my friend
I miss those times
I miss those nights
I even miss our silly fights
The making up
The morning talks
And those late afternoon walks
I miss my friend
The one my heart and soul confided in
The one I felt the safest with
The one who knew just what to say to make me laugh again
And let the light back in
I miss my friend
I miss my friend
I miss my friend
Mmmmmmmm
I miss my friend
Mmmmmmmm
Callin' Caroline lyrics - Darryl Worley
I got a lot of highway to travel
I got a little lady on my mind
I'm already pullin' over callin' Caroline
I got to be in Bowling Green by mornin'
It's gonna be a lonely midnight ride
The only thing that keeps me goin' is callin' Caroline
Lord I wish this run was over
You know this old highway never ends
But I'll keep huggin' this old shoulder
Till I'm in her arms again
If I had another way to make a livin'
I would never leave that girl behind
But for now I'll keep a rollin'
Callin' Caroline
Lord I wish this run was over
You know this old highway never ends
But I'll keep huggin' this old shoulder
Till I'm in her arms again
If I had another way to make a livin'
I would never leave that girl behind
But for now I'll keep a rollin'
Callin' Caroline
Yeah for now I'll keep a rollin'
Callin' Caroline
I keep callin' Caroline
I got a little lady on my mind
I'm already pullin' over callin' Caroline
I got to be in Bowling Green by mornin'
It's gonna be a lonely midnight ride
The only thing that keeps me goin' is callin' Caroline
Lord I wish this run was over
You know this old highway never ends
But I'll keep huggin' this old shoulder
Till I'm in her arms again
If I had another way to make a livin'
I would never leave that girl behind
But for now I'll keep a rollin'
Callin' Caroline
Lord I wish this run was over
You know this old highway never ends
But I'll keep huggin' this old shoulder
Till I'm in her arms again
If I had another way to make a livin'
I would never leave that girl behind
But for now I'll keep a rollin'
Callin' Caroline
Yeah for now I'll keep a rollin'
Callin' Caroline
I keep callin' Caroline
Family Tree lyrics - Darryl Worley
Dancin' in the living room cuttin' up a rug
Dancin' with a baby looks more like a hug
Livin' in a house made of saw mill wood
"Roll over Beethoven" never sounded so good
Come on baby, baby let's go
Where we get the money honey I don't know
One more baby's alright by me
We'll just add another limb to the family tree
Well raising up babies is our new sport
You're one day late and I'm a dollar short
Now maybe it was planned maybe it was a goof
But a cat just has to dance on a hot tin roof
Come on baby, baby let's go
Where we get the money honey I don't know
One more baby's alright by me
We'll just add another limb to the family tree
Well the lawnmower's broken, the tax is due
And if I find another tick I'm gonna come unglued
We got hand me down clothes, hand me down shoes
We got the big belly momma here we go again blues
Come on baby, baby let's go
Where we get the money honey I don't know
One more baby's alright by me
We'll just add another limb to the family tree
Baby, whoa, whoa let's go
Where we get the money I don't know
One more baby alright's by me
It's alright, it's alright now baby
We'll just add another limb to the family tree
Oh we'll just add another limb to the family tree
We'll just add another limb to the family tree
Dancin' with a baby looks more like a hug
Livin' in a house made of saw mill wood
"Roll over Beethoven" never sounded so good
Come on baby, baby let's go
Where we get the money honey I don't know
One more baby's alright by me
We'll just add another limb to the family tree
Well raising up babies is our new sport
You're one day late and I'm a dollar short
Now maybe it was planned maybe it was a goof
But a cat just has to dance on a hot tin roof
Come on baby, baby let's go
Where we get the money honey I don't know
One more baby's alright by me
We'll just add another limb to the family tree
Well the lawnmower's broken, the tax is due
And if I find another tick I'm gonna come unglued
We got hand me down clothes, hand me down shoes
We got the big belly momma here we go again blues
Come on baby, baby let's go
Where we get the money honey I don't know
One more baby's alright by me
We'll just add another limb to the family tree
Baby, whoa, whoa let's go
Where we get the money I don't know
One more baby alright's by me
It's alright, it's alright now baby
We'll just add another limb to the family tree
Oh we'll just add another limb to the family tree
We'll just add another limb to the family tree
Back Where I Belong lyrics - Darryl Worley
There's a little shack tucked back in the timber
It wasn't much back then but it was home
Sometimes it hurts me to remember
Just how long I've been gone
Oh how I miss the smell of mama's kitchen
And the way she used to sing those gospel songs
Right now I wish that me and dad were fishin'
So I could tell him, he was right, and I was wrong
Big city nights and lights surround me
Feels like a prison to my soul
I can hear a whippoorwill calling me home
Back where I belong
Now all the rockin' chairs are empty
I hate to think how tall the weeds have grown
I'd give back everything the good Lord gave me
If I could just go back to where I belong
Big city nights and lights surround me
Feels like a prison to my soul
I can hear a whippoorwill calling me home
Back where I belong
Back where I belong
It wasn't much back then but it was home
Sometimes it hurts me to remember
Just how long I've been gone
Oh how I miss the smell of mama's kitchen
And the way she used to sing those gospel songs
Right now I wish that me and dad were fishin'
So I could tell him, he was right, and I was wrong
Big city nights and lights surround me
Feels like a prison to my soul
I can hear a whippoorwill calling me home
Back where I belong
Now all the rockin' chairs are empty
I hate to think how tall the weeds have grown
I'd give back everything the good Lord gave me
If I could just go back to where I belong
Big city nights and lights surround me
Feels like a prison to my soul
I can hear a whippoorwill calling me home
Back where I belong
Back where I belong
The Least That You Can Do lyrics - Darryl Worley
If it's really over and there's nothing I can say
I'll do my best to hide the pain and turn and walk away
But do me one last favor and pretend you're hurting too
After all we've been through it's the least that you can do
I don't know any reason we should let the whole town know
Which one of us came up with this plan for letting go
Try to leave me just a little pride to get me through
After all I gave you it's the least that you can do
When you run into our old friends
Could you ask them how I've been
And maybe even muster up a teardrop now and then
And if they ask you how you're doing
What's it really gonna hurt
To tell a little lie and do your best to look your worst
Keep my old love letters in the closet down the hall
And leave at least one picture of me somewhere on the wall
Could you do your best impression of a sentimental fool
After all it seems like it's the least that you can do
I know it won't be long till someone else is loving you
And waking up in your arms just the way I used to
Promise me at least one time you'll call him by my name
When I'm with somebody new I'll try to do the same
If someone ever asks you why we went our seperate ways
We were just too much in love might be the thing to say
Or maybe you could tell them I was just too good for you
After all I gave you it's the least that you can do
If the shoe were on the other foot I'd do the same for you
After all we've been through it's the least that you can do
I'll do my best to hide the pain and turn and walk away
But do me one last favor and pretend you're hurting too
After all we've been through it's the least that you can do
I don't know any reason we should let the whole town know
Which one of us came up with this plan for letting go
Try to leave me just a little pride to get me through
After all I gave you it's the least that you can do
When you run into our old friends
Could you ask them how I've been
And maybe even muster up a teardrop now and then
And if they ask you how you're doing
What's it really gonna hurt
To tell a little lie and do your best to look your worst
Keep my old love letters in the closet down the hall
And leave at least one picture of me somewhere on the wall
Could you do your best impression of a sentimental fool
After all it seems like it's the least that you can do
I know it won't be long till someone else is loving you
And waking up in your arms just the way I used to
Promise me at least one time you'll call him by my name
When I'm with somebody new I'll try to do the same
If someone ever asks you why we went our seperate ways
We were just too much in love might be the thing to say
Or maybe you could tell them I was just too good for you
After all I gave you it's the least that you can do
If the shoe were on the other foot I'd do the same for you
After all we've been through it's the least that you can do
I Built This Wall lyrics - Darryl Worley
I dug this hole I'm standing in
She made it clear she ain't coming back again
I'm dying here it's dark and cold
Oh, I'm the only one to blame, I dug this hole
I made this bed I'm crying on
Just like the heart I broke in two, it's hard as stone
You can't go back once love is dead
Look at me now, I dug this hole, I made this bed
These guilty arms are empty now
They were holding someone else
When they let her down
I lost it all, my dreams and plans
See what a fool can do with just two hands
I built this wall I can't get past
It only took one night but Lord it's built to last
It's a heartache wide stands treetop tall
I dug this hole, I made this bed, I built this wall
These guilty arms are empty now
They were holding someone else
When they let her down
I lost it all, my dreams and plans
See what a fool can do with just two hands
I built this wall I can't get past
It only took one night but Lord it's built to last
It's a heartache wide stands treetop tall
I dug this hole, I made this bed, I built this wall
I dug this hole, I made this bed, I built this wall
She made it clear she ain't coming back again
I'm dying here it's dark and cold
Oh, I'm the only one to blame, I dug this hole
I made this bed I'm crying on
Just like the heart I broke in two, it's hard as stone
You can't go back once love is dead
Look at me now, I dug this hole, I made this bed
These guilty arms are empty now
They were holding someone else
When they let her down
I lost it all, my dreams and plans
See what a fool can do with just two hands
I built this wall I can't get past
It only took one night but Lord it's built to last
It's a heartache wide stands treetop tall
I dug this hole, I made this bed, I built this wall
These guilty arms are empty now
They were holding someone else
When they let her down
I lost it all, my dreams and plans
See what a fool can do with just two hands
I built this wall I can't get past
It only took one night but Lord it's built to last
It's a heartache wide stands treetop tall
I dug this hole, I made this bed, I built this wall
I dug this hole, I made this bed, I built this wall
Opportunity Of A Lifetime lyrics - Darryl Worley
Big brown eyes, soft red lips
I'm thinkin' I could get used to this
This could be the opportunity of a lifetime
My heart melts when you whisper my name
I've got a feeling if you're feeling the same
This could be the opportunity of a lifetime
I don't need to travel the world
Chase after rainbows, I'm telling you girl
There's so many things that I'd rather do
Like wakin' up each morning with you
We've got a chance at a real true love
We'd have to be crazy to pass it up
This could be the opportunity of a lifetime
I can just see us sittin' there
Front porch swing with gray in our hair
I know it seems like a lifetime away
But we could get started today
We've got a chance at a real true love
We'd have to be crazy to pass it up
This could be the opportunity of a lifetime
Oh yes-sir-ee, this could be
The opportunity of a lifetime
I'm thinkin' I could get used to this
This could be the opportunity of a lifetime
My heart melts when you whisper my name
I've got a feeling if you're feeling the same
This could be the opportunity of a lifetime
I don't need to travel the world
Chase after rainbows, I'm telling you girl
There's so many things that I'd rather do
Like wakin' up each morning with you
We've got a chance at a real true love
We'd have to be crazy to pass it up
This could be the opportunity of a lifetime
I can just see us sittin' there
Front porch swing with gray in our hair
I know it seems like a lifetime away
But we could get started today
We've got a chance at a real true love
We'd have to be crazy to pass it up
This could be the opportunity of a lifetime
Oh yes-sir-ee, this could be
The opportunity of a lifetime
Spread A Little Love Around lyrics - Darryl Worley
Sometimes this crazy world can make us all feel bad
I sit and watch the news and just get mad
We need to stop and smell the roses in the ground
So get out today
Spread a little love around
Talk to a neighbor
Volunteer a favor
Help out a stranger when his car's broke down
Take your wife a kissin'
When your kids talk - listen
It makes a lovely sound
Spread a little love around
You know it don't take to much to make somebody's day
A kind word or tender touch goes a long way
We can change the whole world if we start in our hometown
So get out today
Spread a little love around
Tell your mom you love her
Bear hug your brother
Treat your sister to a night out on the town
Throw the ball for Rover
Wrestle in the clover
Put a smile on that old hound
Spread a little love around
Slap your sweetheart's fanny
Tickle on old granny
Dance with the kids and act like a clown
A little tiny kiss and hug
Everybody needs that stuff
Turn a frown upside down
Spread a little love around
When this world gets you down
Spread a little love around
I sit and watch the news and just get mad
We need to stop and smell the roses in the ground
So get out today
Spread a little love around
Talk to a neighbor
Volunteer a favor
Help out a stranger when his car's broke down
Take your wife a kissin'
When your kids talk - listen
It makes a lovely sound
Spread a little love around
You know it don't take to much to make somebody's day
A kind word or tender touch goes a long way
We can change the whole world if we start in our hometown
So get out today
Spread a little love around
Tell your mom you love her
Bear hug your brother
Treat your sister to a night out on the town
Throw the ball for Rover
Wrestle in the clover
Put a smile on that old hound
Spread a little love around
Slap your sweetheart's fanny
Tickle on old granny
Dance with the kids and act like a clown
A little tiny kiss and hug
Everybody needs that stuff
Turn a frown upside down
Spread a little love around
When this world gets you down
Spread a little love around
Pow 369 lyrics - Darryl Worley
I was flying down the highway
Weaving in and out of traffic
I was racing time
An old man pulled out in front of me
And I went crazy as can be
I lost my mind
I blew my horn till I got close enough to see
And what was on his car-tag sure convicted me
POW 369
I should slaute you from this heart of mine
And thank you for placing your life on the line
For me, I'm free
I pray that the rest of your journey is a peaceful one
And may you take your own sweet time
Mr. POW 369
The things we take for granted
In this life we lead are tragic
We should be ashamed
He left his home and family
And cast his fate across the sea
Would we do the same
Well I sure bet he's got some stories he could tell
Ain't that many ever made it back from hell
POW 369
I should slaute you from this heart of mine
And thank you for placing your life on the line
For me, I'm free
I pray that the rest of your journey is a peaceful one
And may you take your own sweet time
Mr. POW 369
Let me thank you one more time
Mr. POW 369

Where You Think You're Goin'? lyrics - Darryl Worley
You've packed up the cups and dishes
Loaded down the car
Hold your horses just a minute
Before you get too far
Where you think you're goin' darlin'
Where you think you're goin' with my heart
You can have the 'frigerator and the new TV
Take the pictures off the wall
That's alright by me but
Where you think you're goin' sweet pea
Where you think you're goin' with my heart
Girl, we had a good thing goin'
Now you're gonna leave
But you've got somethin' that belongs to me
Look at me now, can't you see
It's tearin' me apart
Where you think you're goin' sugar puddin'
Where you think you're goin' with my heart
If that's what you want
Is for me to just break right down
I just might do it
Girl, we had a good thing goin'
But now you're gonna leave
But you've got somethin' that belongs to me
Look at me now, can't you see
It's tearin' me apart
Where you think you're goin' honey bunny
Where you think you're goin' with my heart
Where you think you're goin' sweet cheeks
Where you think you're goin' with my heart
Come back here with that
You can't take everything
Don't you want to kiss me
Just for the good times
It's goin' be sad and lonesome here
Without you
Loaded down the car
Hold your horses just a minute
Before you get too far
Where you think you're goin' darlin'
Where you think you're goin' with my heart
You can have the 'frigerator and the new TV
Take the pictures off the wall
That's alright by me but
Where you think you're goin' sweet pea
Where you think you're goin' with my heart
Girl, we had a good thing goin'
Now you're gonna leave
But you've got somethin' that belongs to me
Look at me now, can't you see
It's tearin' me apart
Where you think you're goin' sugar puddin'
Where you think you're goin' with my heart

I just might do it
Girl, we had a good thing goin'
But now you're gonna leave
But you've got somethin' that belongs to me
Look at me now, can't you see

Where you think you're goin' honey bunny
Where you think you're goin' with my heart
Where you think you're goin' sweet cheeks
Where you think you're goin' with my heart
Come back here with that
You can't take everything
Don't you want to kiss me
Just for the good times
It's goin' be sad and lonesome here
Without you
A Good Day To Run lyrics - Darryl Worley
I'm tired of working every day for a dollar
About to choke on my own blue collar
This ain't gonna last
Misled by the grand illusion
I've come to this conclusion
I can't make a move too fast
It was written in the sky today
By the morning sun it sure looks like a good day to run
Wide open down a two-lane highway
It's about time that some things went my way
Throwing troubles out to the wind and
I'm praying that they never catch up again
I'm gonna say my worrying days are done
And this looks like a good day to run
My baby's been working as a cashier
She didn't get a vacation this past year
Now it won't be long
We don't need no destination
Just a tank of gas and a good clear station
Playing our favorite song
There're some places that we ain't been
Some things we ain't done
And it sure looks like a good day to run
Wide open down a two-lane highway
It's about time that some things went my way
Throwing troubles out to the wind and
I'm praying that they never catch up again
I'm gonna say my worrying days are done
And this looks like a good day to run
About to choke on my own blue collar
This ain't gonna last
Misled by the grand illusion
I've come to this conclusion
I can't make a move too fast
It was written in the sky today
By the morning sun it sure looks like a good day to run
Wide open down a two-lane highway
It's about time that some things went my way
Throwing troubles out to the wind and
I'm praying that they never catch up again
I'm gonna say my worrying days are done
And this looks like a good day to run
My baby's been working as a cashier
She didn't get a vacation this past year
Now it won't be long
We don't need no destination
Just a tank of gas and a good clear station
Playing our favorite song
There're some places that we ain't been
Some things we ain't done
And it sure looks like a good day to run
Wide open down a two-lane highway
It's about time that some things went my way
Throwing troubles out to the wind and
I'm praying that they never catch up again
I'm gonna say my worrying days are done
And this looks like a good day to run
Who's Gonna Get Me Over You lyrics - Darryl Worley
When she walked out on me you hung around
Said you couldn't stand to see me going down
And that someday I'd forget all about her in time
You were right she's the last thing on my mind
Now you say that since I'm feeling strong again
You're leaving and you'll always be my friend
Thanks to you, I know now what love is all about
There's just one little thing that you left out
Who's gonna get me over you
Who'll take your place like you took hers
And pull me through
You got me over her when she left
Just like you said you'd do
But tell me who's gonna get me over you
You put together all she tore apart
But somewhere along the way I lost my heart
You had me believing I could make it on my own
Right up to the moment you were gone
Who's gonna get me over you
Who'll take your place like you took hers
And pull me through
You got me over her when she left
Just like you said you'd do
But tell me who's gonna get me over you
Said you couldn't stand to see me going down
And that someday I'd forget all about her in time
You were right she's the last thing on my mind
Now you say that since I'm feeling strong again
You're leaving and you'll always be my friend
Thanks to you, I know now what love is all about
There's just one little thing that you left out
Who's gonna get me over you
Who'll take your place like you took hers
And pull me through
You got me over her when she left
Just like you said you'd do
But tell me who's gonna get me over you
You put together all she tore apart
But somewhere along the way I lost my heart
You had me believing I could make it on my own
Right up to the moment you were gone
Who's gonna get me over you
Who'll take your place like you took hers
And pull me through
You got me over her when she left
Just like you said you'd do
But tell me who's gonna get me over you
Second Wind lyrics - Darryl Worley
There's an old friendly breeze that blows in the Gulf of Mexico
Somehow it always knows when I'm feeling low
So I'm gonna anchor down and wait till it comes around
Leave the rest of the world behind, yeah that's how I'll pass the time
Till I catch my second wind, get back up and gain control again
Find the strength I lost back when you stopped loving me
I guess I'll just stay out here until I know the coast is clear
Sit and watch the tide roll in till I catch my second wind
There's a peace in the way I feel when the water's still
And as long as it's calm out here I've got time to kill
But as soon as it starts to stir I'll lose track of the way things were
Float away on the open air, but I'm not going anywhere
Till I catch my second wind, get back up and gain control again
Find the strength I lost back when you stopped loving me
I guess I'll just stay out here until I know the coast is clear
Sit and watch the tide roll in till I catch my second wind
Somehow it always knows when I'm feeling low
So I'm gonna anchor down and wait till it comes around
Leave the rest of the world behind, yeah that's how I'll pass the time
Till I catch my second wind, get back up and gain control again
Find the strength I lost back when you stopped loving me
I guess I'll just stay out here until I know the coast is clear
Sit and watch the tide roll in till I catch my second wind
There's a peace in the way I feel when the water's still
And as long as it's calm out here I've got time to kill
But as soon as it starts to stir I'll lose track of the way things were
Float away on the open air, but I'm not going anywhere
Till I catch my second wind, get back up and gain control again
Find the strength I lost back when you stopped loving me
I guess I'll just stay out here until I know the coast is clear
Sit and watch the tide roll in till I catch my second wind
