Dixie Chicks - Heartbreak Town, song lirics
Hugged your friends
Kissed your mama goodbye
Baby in your arms and a tear in your eye
Twelve hundred miles and you never asked why from me
Me and the baby and you side by side
We all knew we was in for a long hard ride
Nowhere to run and nowhere to hide it seemed
We honked the horn when we crossed the state line
Woke up the baby and she started to cry
She must have known what we were going to find
This aint nothin but a heartbreak town
Square people in a world thats round
And they watch you dancin
Without the sound
It aint nothin no nothin
You take your number and you stand in line
And they watch to see how high youre gonna climb
Pat on the back n better luck next time
It aint nothin no it aint nothin but a heartbreak town
Stardust well its a funny thing
It can make you cuss
It can make you sing
And the need to touch it gets hard to explain some days
Ive seen em rise
Ive seen em fall
Some get nothin
And lord some get it all
Some just run
While others crawl away
Hold my hand baby dont let go
Ive got some front money
And Ive got a next show
And Im gonna need you
Down this yellow brick road
This aint nothin but a heartbreak town
Square people in a world thats round
And they watch you dancin without a sound
It aint nothin no it aint nothin no
You take your number and you stand in line
And they watch to see how high youre gonna climb
Pat on the back n better luck next time
It aint nothin no it aint nothin
But a heartbreak town
Town, Heartbreak town

Dixie Chicks - Goodbye Earl
Dixie Chicks - Goodbye Earl, song lirics
Mary anne and wanda were the best of friends
All through their high school days
Both members of the 4h club
Both active in the ffa
After graduation mary anne went out lookin
For a bright new world
Wanda looked all around this town
And all she found was earl
Well it wasnt two weeks
After she got married that
Wanda started gettin abused
She put on dark glasses and long sleeved blouses
And make-up to cover a bruise
Well she finally got the nerve to file for divorce
She let the law take it from there
But earl walked right through that restraining order
And put her in intensive care
Right away mary anne flew in from atalnta
On a red eye midnight flight
She held wandas hand as they
Worked out a plan
And it didnt take long to decided
That earl had to die
Goodbye earl
Those black-eyed peas
They tasted all right to me earl
Youre feeling weak
Why dont you lay down
And sleep earl
Aint it dark
Wrapped up in that tarp earl
The cops came to bring earl in
They searched the house
High and low
Then they tipped their hats
And said thank you ladies
If you hear from him let us know
Well the weeks went by and
Spring turned to summer
And summer faded into fall
And it turns out he was a missing person
Who nobody missed al all
So the girls bouth some land
And a roadside stand
Out on highway 109
They sell tennessee ham
And strawberry jame
And they dont
Lose any sleep at night cause
Earl had to die
Goodbye earl
We need a break
Lets go out to the lake earl
Well pack a lunch
And stuff you in the trunk earl
Well is that all right
Good lets go for a ride
Earl hey!

Dixie Chicks - Give It Up Or Let Me Go
Dixie Chicks - Give It Up Or Let Me Go, song lirics
Well I told you pretty baby
Such a long time ago
If I found you with another
Well, Id walk right out your door
Woh, you might call me crazy
Theres one thing you should know
Well, if you want me to love you, got to
Give it up or let me go
I know its useless to be jealous
I wouldnt tie you if I tried
When I think youre messin around my back
It sure brings a pain I just cant hide
Oh baby, Ive been true to you
And if I can make that sacrifice
Honey you can do it too
Well, you come home drunk and nasty
You wont tell me where youve been
Just when things are nice and sweet
Youre going back out again
Why do you want to mess up a good thing?
Im gonna find me another man
One who wants to give me everything
Well I told you pretty baby
Such a long time ago
If I found you with another
Well, Id walk right out the door
Woh, you might call me crazy
Theres one thing you should know
Well, if you want me to love you, got to
Give it up or let me go
Well I told you pretty baby
Such a long time ago
If I found you with another
Well, Id walk right out your door
Woh, you might call me crazy
Theres one thing you should know
Well, if you want me to love you, got to
Give it up or let me go
I know its useless to be jealous
I wouldnt tie you if I tried
When I think youre messin around my back
It sure brings a pain I just cant hide
Oh baby, Ive been true to you
And if I can make that sacrifice
Honey you can do it too

Dixie Chicks - Dont Waste Your Heart
Dixie Chicks - Don’t Waste Your Heart, song lirics
For the life of me I cant believe
The youre on your knees beggin please
All the pushing away and puttin down
Cant you see youre gettin the run around
Oh its plain to see youd rescure me
From my loneliness so called unhappiness
Oh I didnt mean to cause you pain
Ive got nothin to lose and nothin to gain
And dont waste your heart on a wild thing
Shes got a soul that wont settle on one thing
Whoa this bird cant sing when youve tied its wings
Dont waste your heart on me
Its funny how the girls get burned
And honey as far as Im concerned
The tables have turned
And dont waste your heart on a wild thing
Shes got a soul that wont settle on one thing
Whoa this bird cant sing when youve tied its wings
Dont waste your heart on me
And Im here to apologize
My heart cant compromise
For the life of me I cant believe
The youre on your knees beggin please
All the pushing away and puttin down
Cant you see youre gettin the run around
Oh its plain to see youd rescure me
From my loneliness so called unhappiness
Oh I didnt mean to cause you pain
Ive got nothin to lose and nothin to gain
And dont waste your heart on a wild thing
Shes got a soul that wont settle on one thing
Whoa this bird cant sing when youve tied its wings
Dont waste your heart on me
Its funny how the girls get burned
And honey as far as Im concerned
The tables have turned
And dont waste your heart on a wild thing
Shes got a soul that wont settle on one thing
Whoa this bird cant sing when youve tied its wings
Dont waste your heart on me
And Im here to apologize
My heart cant compromise
Dixie Chicks - Cowboy Take Me Away
Dixie Chicks - Cowboy Take Me Away, song lirics
I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild and unruly
I wanna sleep on the hard ground
In the comfort of your arms
On a pillow of bluebonnets
In a blanket made of stars
Oh it sounds good to me I said
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can
Into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and
Closer to you closer to you
I wanna walk and not run
I wanna skip and not fall
I wanna look at the horizon
And not see a building standing tall
I wanna be the only one
For miles and miles
Except for maybe you
And your simple smile
Oh it sounds good to me
Yes it sounds so good to me
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can
Into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and
Closer to you closer to you
I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild and unruly
Oh it sounds so good to me
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can
Into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and
Closer to you closer to you
Closer to you
Cowboy take me away.
Closer to you
I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild and unruly
I wanna sleep on the hard ground
In the comfort of your arms
On a pillow of bluebonnets
In a blanket made of stars
Oh it sounds good to me I said
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can
Into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and
Closer to you closer to you
I wanna walk and not run
I wanna skip and not fall
I wanna look at the horizon
And not see a building standing tall
I wanna be the only one
For miles and miles
Except for maybe you
And your simple smile
Oh it sounds good to me
Yes it sounds so good to me
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can
Into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and
Closer to you closer to you
I said I wanna touch the earth
I wanna break it in my hands
I wanna grow something wild and unruly
Oh it sounds so good to me
Cowboy take me away
Fly this girl as high as you can
Into the wild blue
Set me free oh I pray
Closer to heaven above and
Closer to you closer to you
Closer to you
Cowboy take me away.
Closer to you
Dixie Chicks - Cold Day In July
Dixie Chicks - Cold Day In July lirics
The moon is full and my arms are empty
All night long Ive pleaded and cried
You always said the day that you would leave me
Would be a cold day in july
Your bags are packed not a word is spoken
I guess we said everything with good-bye
Time moves so slow and promises get broken
On this cold day in july
Suns comin up comin up down on main street
Children shout as theyre running out to play
Head in my hands her I am
Standing in my bare feet
Watching you drive away
Watchinf you drive away
You said that we were gonna last forever
You said our love would never die
It looks like spring and
It feels like sunny weather
But its a cold day in july
On suns comin up comin up
Down on main street
Children shout as theyre running out to play
Whoa head in my hands
Here I am standing in my bare feet
Watching you drive away
Watching you drive away
The moon is full and my arms are empty
All night long how Ive pleaded and cried
You always said the day that
You would leave me,
Would be a cold day in july
Here comes that cold day in july
Oh
Yeah
Oh yeah
La da da la da da la da da
Oh ooo
The moon is full and my arms are empty

Dixie Chicks - A Heart That Can
Dixie Chicks - A Heart That Can lirics
You say I've done a lot of good
You're glad I found you when I did
But I wonder why you keep
Those questions in your head
Oh I think you're afraid to fall
Someone went and blew the call
All I can say is my heart tries hard
Try as hard as I can
You'll never find that my love falls short
One day you'll understand
That I've got a heart that can
Well I think I know by now
I will be standin' by your side
Takin' in account true love's never shy
I can show you everyday
This is not a one act play
All I can say is my heart tries hard
Try as hard as I can
You'll never find that my love falls short
One day you'll understand
That I've got a heart that can
So let me love you the best
That I know how
Let me move you with
Everything that love allows
All I can say is my heart tries hard
Try as hard as I can
You'll never find that my love falls short
One day you'll understand
That I've got a heart that can
You say I've done a lot of good
You're glad I found you when I did
But I wonder why you keep
Those questions in your head
Oh I think you're afraid to fall
Someone went and blew the call
All I can say is my heart tries hard
Try as hard as I can
You'll never find that my love falls short
One day you'll understand
That I've got a heart that can
Well I think I know by now
I will be standin' by your side
Takin' in account true love's never shy

This is not a one act play

You'll never find that my love falls short
One day you'll understand

So let me love you the best

Everything that love allows

Try as hard as I can
You'll never find that my love falls short
One day you'll understand
