A showman's life is a smokey bar And the fevered chase of a tiny star It's a hotel room and a lonely wife From what I've seen of a showman's life Nobody told me about this part They told me all about the pretty girls And the wine and the money and the good times There's no mention of all the wear and tear On an old honky tonker's heart Well I might have known it But nobody told me about this part A boy will dream as children do Of a great white way, until the dream comes true And a phony smile in a colored light Is all there is to a showman's life Nobody told me about this part They told me all about the pretty girls And the wine and the money and the good times There's no mention of all the wear and tear On an old honky tonker's heart Well I might have known it But nobody told me about this part And nobody told me about this part They told me all about the pretty girls And the wine and the money and the good times There's no mention of, all the wear and tear On an old honky tonker's heart Well I might have known it But nobody told me about this part Well I might have known it Nobody told me about this part

I tested your patience Without you even knowiing So i continued to throw words Around carelessly I knew how to get you off Certain words Evoked this beast from you It was your carless eyes That strayed away Which brought forth Your true feelings Now tell me of the nights When you pushed my patience The thrusts of hormonal guilt I suffer here Your skin Holds the image of his face And your hair Smells of compulsive lust Now tell me Was it worth it?

Sleighbells ring, are you listening? In the land snow is glistening A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight Walking in the winter wonderland Gone away is the blue bird Here to stay is the new bird He sings a love song as we go along Walking in the winter wonderland In the meadow we can build a snowman We'll pretend that he is Parson Brown He'll say, Are you married? We'll say, No man But you can do the job when you're in town Later on we'll conspire as we dream by the fire We'll face unafraid the plans that we made Walking in the winter wonderland In the meadow we can build a snowman We'll pretend that he is Parson Brown He'll say, Are you married? We'll say, No man But you can do the job when you're in town Later on we'll conspire as we dream by the fire We'll face unafraid the plans that we made Walking in the winter wonderland

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh Dashing through the snow In a one horse open sleigh O'er the fields we go Laughing all the way Bells on bob tails ring Making spirits bright What fun it is to laugh and sing A sleighing song tonight Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh A day or two ago I thought I'd take a ride And soon Miss Fanny Bright Was seated by my side The horse was lean and lank Misfortune seemed his lot We got into a drifted bank And then we got upsot Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh Jingle bells, jingle bells Jingle all the way Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one horse open sleigh

There wouldn't be no Alamo No Cowboys in the Superbowl No "Lonesome Dove", no "Yellow Rose" If it wasn't for Texas I wouldn't be a Willie fan Nobody'd swim the Rio Grande I wouldn't be an American If it wasn't for Texas Fort Worth would never cross my mind An' there'd be no Austin City limits sign No Lonestar of any kind If it wasn't for Texas I'd never've gone to Tennessee To sing my songs an' chase my dreams Only Heaven knows just where I'd be If it wasn't for Texas Fort Worth would never cross my mind There'd be no Austin City limits sign An' no Lonestar of any kind If it wasn't for Texas It made me the man I am Thank God for my old stompin' ground I wouldn't be standin' right here, right now If it wasn't for Texas If it wasn't for Texas If it wasn't for Texas
