Since you’re the delegate from Kansas
Will you kindly take the floor
Now tell us, what is Kansas thinkin’
What is Kansas for
Kansas is for the farmer
We stand behind the little man
We need a fire house in Topeka
So help us if you can
I see the gentleman from Utah
Our friendly Beehive State
How can we help you, Utah
How can we make you great
We got to irrigate our deserts
We got to get some things to grow
We got to tell this country Read more…

Every time when I think I’m closer
To what I need most
Here I am standing in line
Will it be worth the waiting
Had enough of hard times
I can’t stand no more
Layin’ down a new line
Now I know for sure
Every heartbreak made me that much stronger
Good things take that long
Had enough of hard times
There’s no stopping us now
Had enough of hard times
There’s no stopping us now
I know I was born to love you
So glad it’s you
Got Read more…

Who’s gonna make you feel just right
When that music’s playin’
You gotta kick out the doors and turn out the light
When that music’s playin’
When the thing cuts loose it’s out-a hand
You know you just can’t stop it
Can’t sit in your chair, you got to stand
You know you just can’t stop it
We can make it, we can shake it in a little while
We can make it
Down to the corner where the night’s goin’ hog wild
We can make it, Read more…

Goin’ down to Rosie’s
Stop at Fanny May’s
Gonna tell Fanny what I heard her boyfriend say
Now don’t you start me talkin’
I’ll tell ev’rything I know
I’m gonna break up this signifyin’
‘Cause somebody gotta go
Jack gave his wife two dollar
Go down to the market
Get out on the street, ol’ George stopped her
He knocked her down
And blacked her eye
She get back home and tell her husband a lie
Now don’t you start me talkin’
I’ll tell ev’rything I know
I’m gonna Read more…

I hear your voice everywhere
It’s echoes of love
Making me look back over my shoulder
Echoes of love are started all over
Echoes of love
Keeps on haunting
I’m out of control
Keeps on burning
Echoes of love are out of control
Bringing back love I used to hold
Darlin’, since you went away
Think about you every day
So many memories
About to get the best of me
Recalling the times
I used to hold you
I just wouldn’t do
What I was supposed to
I’ve done things
I’d like to undo
Now darlin’ Read more…

Well, I thought you’d be back on the track
But I guess I was wrong, man
For the look in your eyes was the same
Empty high that you’d shown
As I ran down the road I’d forgotten this load was upon you
So the band packed it’s bags and played on, goodbye
It’s been years since I cried
But this feeling inside really hurt me
And you know that we’re loyal
Through the years of hard toil we stood by
But our licks’ gotten Read more…

Playin’ easy somewhere, shade across my mind
Thoughts that pass I cannot catch, I reach for you and find
That I have learned how not to get burned now
Wind in the tree blows, even the sea knows
That I have learned how, think I can see now
Lookin’ through dreams is not what it seems
They handed me the bottle and said drink it ’til it’s gone
But now that it’s half empty I’m not sure I can go on
Thought I had Read more…

Too many nights
I’ve sat around and wondered
Where can my baby be
I can’t explain this feelin’
How my heart’s been reelin’
Or what’s come over me
Ah but this much I know
If this is how it’s gonna go
It’s gonna be tough
Ain’t no spell I’m under
It just makes me wonder
Is love enough
Is love enough to keep you happy
Is there a bottom line
And can there ever be
Anyone else for you but me
Is love enough to make you mine
I’ve gotta know
Is Read more…

I didn’t stand a chance
I heard a voice within
With just a passing glance
You made the walls cave in
You were gone baby, without a word
I got the message loud and clear
Couldn’t help but hear
As you were walkin’ away
It was somethin’ you said…
Now I wake up in the night
Strange things in my head
Oh, you did it with your eyes
It must’a been something
Must’a been something you said
So say it again
I’m just delirious
Caught in a waking dream
Did you mean what Read more…
