Waitin' At The Door

I just got home from work again
Through down my purse when I walked in
And laid a stack of mail on the table,
Looks like it's mostly bills this time
It weighs so heavy on my mind
I tell myself we'll pay em when we're able

I don't know how much more we can stand
I'm surprised ,that  anybody can,  

Chorus
Times are tough and gettin tougher
Always seems there's not enough for
Everybody that we owe, good Lord
I stay stressed out and can't relax
The bills are piled up in a stack
And I don't want to go outside no more
  I know the wolf is waitin' at the door

 
Ain't much sign of gettin better
I'm prayin for some decent weather
So the 'lectric bill won't be so high
I sure could use a long vacation
Instead I'm takin medication
Just so I won't lose my friggin mind
So hold me tight  and tell me it's ok
And  together we can face another day,  
Chorus
Times are tough and gettin tougher
Always seems there's not enough for
Everybody that we owe, good Lord
I stay stressed out and can't relax
The bills are piled up in a stack
And I don't want to go outside no more
  I know the wolf is waitin' at the door

 

Bridge
The middle class is under fire, Ain't no way we can retire
I guess we'll just keep workin' till we die
With all the takin and the givin, life's still good and  worth the livin
And with the good Lord's help we'll all get by, but

Chorus
Times are tough and gettin tougher
Always seems there's not enough for
Everybody that we owe, good Lord
I stay stressed out and can't relax
The bills are piled up in a stack
And I don't want to go outside no more
 I know the wolf is waitin' at the door

Cause I know the wolf is waitin' at the door

“Old Car Yards” is a nostalgic country track that captures the beauty of rust, memories, and small-town stories left behind. It’s about growing up, holding on, and the treasures found where others see junk.

Old Car Yards

A gritty country ballad soaked in heartache and honesty. When the words run dry, and the pain runs deep, it’s whiskey’s turn to speak. Inspired by real stories, late nights, and the kind of love that leaves a mark.

Playful Heart is an inspiring modern country track filled with charm, warmth, and strength. With bright acoustic instrumentation and confident, strong female vocals, this song celebrates connection, joy, and learning to fly free. A heartfelt song for anyone who's ever found strength through love and laughter.

Playful Heart Lyrics

Light on my feet, I laughed like a schoolgirl
Your smile was a spark I didn’t know I'd need
For one brief moment the world disappeared
And all I could feel was you drawing me near

We danced through the dark, like kids in a dream
Playful and clumsy, but bright at the seams
But you saw the sun in the cracks of my soul

You gave me more than a reason to stay
You lit up the silence and showed me the way

Playful heart, you set me free
From the weight I wore too quietly
Like a child in love with the sky
You gave me wings and I don’t know why
Oh playful heart, don’t say goodbye
Just stay awhile...

We talked like old souls, no need to pretend
Every word fell easy, like letters we’d send
From lifetimes before, I feel like I knew you

We moved like a rhythm, soft and slow

You gave me more than a reason to stay
You lit up the silence and showed me the way

Playful heart, you set me free
From the weight I wore too quietly
Like a child in love with the sky
You gave me wings and I don’t know why
Oh playful heart, don’t say goodbye
Just stay awhile...

Mmm... stay awhile...
Playful heart...
Just stay awhile..

When A Northern Girl meets a Southern Boy you know there has to be a song about it.

Stop The Cap lets everyone know that you shouldn't fake it till you make it. 

Stop The Cap

“Before the Morning News” is a raw, emotionally charged country ballad that tells the story of a survivor planning their escape from an abusive home. From the quiet details of cash hidden in a flour tin to a go-bag tucked in a dryer drum, the song paints a vivid picture of fear, courage, and the desperate hope of protecting one’s children. With a gut-punch lyric — “Anywhere my kids won’t bruise” — it captures the strength and heartbreak of walking away before it’s too late.
