Never Alone(Vince Gill, Rosanne Cash) Background Vocals: Vince Gill
You were like a lost kid looking for home
You found what you wanted right in my arms
If you walk out on me
Just leave your memory
Just take my sympathy and go
I love you so you're never alone
If you find another one turns your head
And you can't understand why it hurts so bad
If you walk out on me
Just leave your memory
Just take my sympathy and go
If you walk out on me
Just leave your memory
Just take my sympathy and go
I love you so you're never alone
Girl you're never alone
Never alone
Sight For Sore Eyes(Vince Gill, Guy Clark) Background Vocals: Kathe Baillie
When the storms of the day have all blown away
Along with fair weather friends
There's a place I can go where the wind doesn't blow
It's the best place I've ever been
You're a sight for sore eyes
When I need a friend
You're a sight for sore eyes
Let the healing begin
When the chips are all down and there's no one around
To count on like I count on you
I just picture your face and let it erase
All the pain I'm goin' through
You're a sight for sore eyes
When I need a friend
You're a sight for sore eyes
Let the healing begin
When I get lost and I can't find my way
And there's nowhere to turn at the end of the day
You're a sight for sore eyes
When I need a friend
You're a sight for sore eyes
Let the healing begin
You're a sight for sore eyes
Let the healing begin

Oklahoma Swing (With Reba McEntire)(Vince Gill, Tim DuBois)
Ther's a redhead from my hometown that loves to let her hair down
She tears my heart out when she starts to sing
She's from the right side of Red River and she's pretty as a picture
Don't you know she's this ole cowboy's dream
There's a boy from Okie City and I sure think he's pretty
But I know he's trying to steal my heart away
Oh my mama tried to warn me he's done time in California
But he'll be an Okie til his dyin' day
There's a dance we do in Oklahoma
A dnace like you've never seen
Sit back and we're gonna show ya
How to do that Oklahoma swing
Well when two Okies get together man there's nothin' they like better
Than to hold each other on a dawdust floor
Oh I love it when we're swayin' to those sweet twi fiddles playin'
Come on boy what are we waitin' for
There's a dance we do in Oklahoma
A dnace like you've never seen
Sit back and we're gonna show ya
How to do that Oklahoma swing
Yeah there's a dance we do in Oklahoma
A dnace like you've never seen
Sit back and we're gonna show ya
Yeah how to do that Oklahoma swing
How to do that Oklahoma swing
When I Call Your Name(Vince Gill, Tim DuBois) Background Vocals: Patty Loveless, Vince Gill
I rushed home from work like I always do
I spent my whole day just thinking of you
When I walked through the front door my whole like was changed
Cause nobody answered when I called your name
A note on the table that told me goodbye
It said you'd grown weary of living a lie
Your love has ended but mine still remains
But nobody answers when I call your name
Oh the lonely sound of my voice calling
Is driving me insane
And just like rain the tears keep falling
Nobody answers when I call your name
Oh the lonely sound of my voice calling
Is driving me insane
And just like rain the tears keep falling
Nobody answers when I call your name
Oh nobody answers when I call your name
Ridin' The Rodeo(Vince Gill, Kostas) Background Vocals: Herb Pedersen
Driving all night too many miles to go
Pedal tot he metal listenin' to the radio
I got three days to get from Cheyenne to San Antone
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo
My back side's sore and I'm movin' kinda slow
But when I hit Okie City there's a barrel racer that I know
A little home cookin' and some lovin' to heal my bones
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo
Ride cowboy ride hold on for your life
Eight seconds is a long long time when you're sitting on dynamite
You can't make money buddy if get thrown
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo
Well I might get lucky down in San Antone
Find a little Texas girl I could call my own
That lone star lovin's the best I've ever known
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo
Ride cowboy ride hold on for your life
Eight seconds is a long long time when you're sitting on dynamite
You can't make money buddy if get thrown
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo
That's the life of a cowboy ridin' the rodeo
Never Knew Lonely(Vince Gill) Background Vocals: Harry Stinson, Billy Thomas, Vince Gill
No other lover ever really cared
When I've reached out for you you've always been there
Now I'm so far away and baby I'm scared
I never knew lonely til you
You are my rock and the strength I need
To keep me sane in this life that I lead
Now I'm not with you and my broken heart bleeds
I never knew lonely til you
I never knew lonely could be so blue
I never knew lonely could tear you in two
I never loved someone like I love you
I never knew lonely til you
I can't make up for the times I've been gone
But I'll prove I love you in the words of this song
Back in your arms girl it's where I belong
I never knew lonely til you
I never knew lonely could be so blue
I never knew lonely could tear you in two
I never loved someone like I love you
I never knew lonely til you
We Won't Dance(Greg Trooper) Background Vocals: Anthony Crawford
We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance
I kid you not we were hot
When the weekend came we'd dance non-stop
No jitterbug no substitute
No twist and turn no crasha nd burn
Could top us two
We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance
As I dipped you down in your yellow dress
We'd brush the floor in a slow caress
As minutes turned to a rising sun
We'd leave the day to rest
Our dancing done
We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance
If I were God and controlled what is
I'd steal your shoes so you couldn't dance with his
Well I'm not all that I could be
But you'll never dance with him
The way you danced with me
We won't dance no more
We won't dance no more
Well I'm not all that I could be
But you'll never dance with him
The way you danced with me
We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance
We won't dance no more
We won't shine out on the floor
We won't sway the band won't play
We won't dance
We Could Have Been(Don Cook, John Jarvis) Background Vocals: Kathie Baillie, Vince Gill
Today at work I overheard a name
I knew it wasn't yours but it touched me just the same
It felt so good to have you in my mind
I guess I'm the sentimental kind
I wonder who you became
Did you change the world
Or play the game
We came so close to love back then
We could have been
You were so brave when I was shy
I made you laugh when something made you cry
And I don't think we ever said goodbye
Now I'll always wonder why
I wonder who you became
Did you change the world
Or play the game
We came so close to love back then
We could have been
A time or two
I thought about calling
But something always gets in the way
Maybe I'm afraid you'd really answer
What would I say to you
I wonder who you became
Did you change the world
Or play the game
We came so close to love back then
We could have been
We could have been
Rita Ballou(Guy Clark) Background Vocals: Emmylou Harris, Harry Stinson
How could she dance that slow bandera
Shuffle to some cowboy hustle
How she makes those trophy buckles shine, shine, shine
Wild-eyed and Mexican silvered
Trickin' dumb ol' Cousin Willard
Into thinkin' that he's got her this time
Hill country holky tonkin' Rita Ballou
Every beer joint in town has played the fool for you
Backslidin' barrel ridin' Rita Ballou
Ain't a cowboy in Texas would not ride a bull for you
She's a rawhide, rope, and velvet mixture
Walkin' talkin' Texas texture
High timin' barroom fixture kind of a girl
She's the Queen of the Cowboys
Look at ol' Willard grinnin' now boys
You'd a thought there's less fools in this world
Hill country holky tonkin' Rita Ballou
Every beer joint in town has played the fool for you
Backslidin' barrel ridin' Rita Ballou
Ain't a cowboy in Texas would not ride a bull for you
So good luck Willard and here's to ya
And here's to Rita and I hope she'll do ya
Right all night
Lord I wish I was the fool in your jeans
Hill country holky tonkin' Rita Ballou
Every beer joint in town has played the fool for you
Backslidin' barrel ridin' Rita Ballou
Ain't a cowboy in Texas would not ride a bull for you
Hill country holky tonkin' Rita Ballou
Every beer joint in town has played the fool for you
Backslidin' barrel ridin' Rita Ballou
Ain't a cowboy in Texas would not ride a bull for you
