Description: For my Mom and all the great Mothers in the world

Stretchy Pants

Hope I didn't wake our little girl; didn't mean to call this late
Driving ten ain't no fun when I'm usually home by eight
The boss sure was desperate to get this load to Cheyenne
He said he'd make it worth my time but there's no way he can

Yeah, we can always use the extra money
But every mile that leads away from you

Takes me FARTHER FROM THE TRUTH
Of who I am and love to be
Your husband and her daddy
Down in small town Tennessee
There was a time 
This highway life was all I ever wanted to do
Now it couldn't be FARTHER FROM THE TRUTH

Did our angel go to sleep okay, or did she miss my lullabies?
Yeah, it seems so unnatural not kissing you good night
I still plan to be home Sunday in time to go to church  
Until then I'll be praying this construction don't get worse

There's nothing like the freedom of the road
But every mile that leads away from you

REPEAT CHORUS 1

If there's a highway to heaven 
And if I have to go before you do

I'll be FARTHER FROM THE TRUTH
Of who I am and love to be
Your husband and her daddy
Down in small town Tennessee
Heaven would be hell 
Until I got to share it with you
And anything different...couldn't be farther from …

FARTHER FROM THE TRUTH of who I am and love to be

Farther From The Truth

I'm a cowboy at heart but that ain't no excuse
For all the times I rode roughshod over you 
There's no way to wrangle any harsh words I said
That kept us up some nights alone in the same bed...but...
 
If I could throw a bridle and saddle on my life
Spin it around, take the trail back in time
And head off each tear I sent down your face
Then, darling, you know, I'd be RIDING HARD TODAY
 
You tamed my wild side; let my spirit roam free
I guess that's why I never dropped down on my knee
But you know I've always stayed true to the brand
That you put on me when I first held your hand...so...

REPEAT CHORUS

Yeah, you gave me fair warning but this cowboy didn't change
Now I'm fading in your rearview while you're RIDING HARD TODAY

Mom's Song

I Love You More.mp3

Underneath the starry skies, on this silent night, A cowboy rides the open plains, bathed in silver light. With a lonesome heart, he wanders through the whispering pines, Dreaming of a Christmas Eve, where love and hope entwine.
Just a cowboy Christmas, out here on my own, With the cattle and the heavens, I ain't really alone. Though I wish for someone to hold me tight, I got the memories and the stars so bright. Just a Cowboy Christmas eve tonight (Cowboy Christmas eve tonight)
The fire crackles softly, casting shadows on the ground, As I sit by the campfire, a peaceful silence found. I think about the loved ones, miles and years away, And wonder if they’re dreaming of a cowboy's holiday.
Just a cowboy Christmas, out here on my own, With the cattle and the heavens, I ain't really alone. Though I wish for someone to hold me tight, I got the memories and the stars so bright. Just a Cowboy Christmas eve tonight (Cowboy Christmas eve tonight)
The fire whispers again, its shadows dancing wide,
I sit beside the embers, where quiet hearts confide.
I drift to distant faces, thinking out here on my own
 know I'll feel their warm embrace as soon as I get home
Just a cowboy Christmas, out here on my own, With the cattle and the heavens, I ain't really alone. Though I wish for someone to hold me tight, I got the memories and the stars so bright. Just a Cowboy Christmas eve tonight (Cowboy Christmas eve tonight)
Snowflakes gently falling, decorating all I see, A reminder of the simple joys this night can always be. I whisper to the twilight, hoping they can hear, That though I’m far away tonight, my heart is always near.
As the night grows colder, and the winds begin to moan, I hum a Christmas melody, feeling not so alone. For I carry with me always, the love from long ago, In the spirit of this season, I let that feeling show.
Just a cowboy Christmas, out here on my own, With the cattle and the heavens, I ain't really alone. Though I wish for someone to hold me tight, I got the memories and the stars so bright. Just a cowboy Christmas eve, tonight.............Just a cowboy Christmas eve ....tonight
So here’s to every cowboy, under the starlit sky, May you find your peace and joy as this holy night goes by. For even in the silence, love can find its way, Just a cowboy Christmas eve,... soon.. gonna be...Christmas day....Christmas....day
