      Musicians: Bass: Will Weeks, Drums: Eddie Bayers, Acoustic Guitar: Mac McAnally, Electric Guitar: Billy Jo Walker, Jr., Vince Gill, Steel Guitar: John Hughey, Fiddle: Andrea Zonn, Acoustic Piano: Barry Beckett, Background Vocals: Herb Pedersen

      When you said you were leavin'
      I said here we go again
      I ain't even breakin' even
      In this game I just can't win

      The cards are stacked against me
      Your aces beat my twos
      Seems like bad luck travels with me
      Like I was born to lose

      I quit
      I've had enough of fallin' in and out of love
      I'm done, I'm through, that's it
      If I can't have you... I quit

      You were my only sunshine
      In a world of pouring of pouring rain
      So this will be my last time
      I can't go through this again

      Chorus

      I'm done, I'm through, that's it If I can't have you... I quit

      Look at us
      After all these yars together
      Look at us
      After all that we've been through
      Look at us
      Still leaning on each other

      If you want to see
      How true love should be
      then just look at us

      Look at you
      Still pretty as a picture
      look at me
      Still crazy over you
      Look at us
      Still believin' in forever

      Chorus

      In a hundred years from now
      I know without a doubt
      They'll all look back and wonder how
      We made it all work out

      Chances are
      We'll go down in history
      When they want to see
      How true love should be
      They'll just look at us

      Musicians: Bass: Michael Rhodes, Drums: Larrie Londin, Acoustic Guitar: Mac McAnally, Electric Guitar: Larry Byron, Vince Gill, Steel Guitar: John Hughey, Acoustic Piano: Pig Robbins, Background Vocals: Herb Pedersen

      I can read the writing on the wall
      You pretend that nothing's changed at all
      I've got just one thing to ask you if it's so
      Just take your memory with you when you go

      So I won't have to think about
      The lonely nights I'll be without
      Someone to hold me when the cold wind blows
      Take your memory with you when you go

      I walk the floor and wonder what went wrong
      I'll have to find a way to carry on
      Why don't you leave before the heartache starts to show
      Take your memory with you when you go

      So I won't have to think about
      The lonely nights I'll be without
      Someone to hold me when the cold wind blows
      Take your memory with you
      So I won't have to miss you
      Take your memory with you when you go


    4. Pocket Full of Gold (Vince Gill, Brian Allsmiller)
      Musicians: Bass: Willie Weeks, Drums: Eddie Bayers, Acoustic Guitar: Billy Jo Walker, Jr., Steel Guitar: John Hughey, Electric Keyboards: Pete Wasner, Acoustic Piano: Barry Beckett, Background Vocals: Patty Loveless, Vince Gill

      He slipped the ring off his finger
      When he walked in the room
      And he found him some stranger
      And promised her the moon
      How many lies you must have told
      You think you're a rich man
      With your pocket full of gold

      For another man's treasure
      You'd say anything
      But is one night of pleasure
      Worth the trouble you'll bring
      Don't look so surprised
      'Cause son I should know
      I once was a rich man
      With my pocket full of gold

      Some night you're gonna wind up
      On the wrong end of a gun
      Some jealous guy's gonna show up
      And you'll pay for what you've done
      What will it say on your tombstone
      Here lies a rich man
      With his pocket full of gold

      Yeah, here lies a rich man
      With his pocket full of gold


    5. The Strings That Tie You Down (Vince Gill, Max D. Barnes)
      Musicians: Bass: Michael Rhodes, Drums: Larrie Londin, Acoustic Guitar: Mac McAnally, Electric Guitar: Larry Byron, Vince Gill, Electric Keyboards: Pete Wasner, Acoustic Piano: Pig Robbins, Fiddle: Andrea Zonn, Steel Guitar: John Hughey, Background Vocals: Andrea Zonn, Vince Gill

      You're so close to tellin' me you're leaving
      Packin' up your things and leavin' town
      If you can walk away the rest is easy
      Once you cut the strings that tie you down

      Just look me in the eye and say it's over
      Just tell me you don't want me around
      Once you say goodbye, it's gone forever
      Once you cut the strings that tie you down

      There's no way I can picture me without you
      I still think of you in your wedding gown
      If I have to give you up, may God be with you
      Once you cut the strings that tie you down


    6. Liza Jane (Vince Gill, Reed Nielsen)
      Musicians: Bass: Willie Weeks, Drums: Eddie Bayers, Acoustic Guitar: Mac McAnally, Electric Guitar: Billy Jo Walker, Jr., Vince Gill, Electric Keyboards: Pete Wasner, Acoustic Piano: Barry Beckett, Fiddle: Andrea Zonn, Background Vocals: Billy Thomas

      You've got my number
      You've got my name
      So why don't you call me
      Little Liza Jane

      You've got that body
      You've got that frame
      So why don't you call me
      Little Liza Jane

      Girl I got it bad for you
      There ain't nothin' I won't do
      Just one kiss and I'll never be the same
      Little Liza Jane, oh little Liza Jane

      Now you've heard my story
      You've got to know my name
      So why don't you call me
      Little Liza Jane

      Chorus


    7. If I Didn't Have You In My World (Vince Gill, Jim Weatherly)

      If I didn't have you in my world
      What a lonely place my world would be
      If I didn't have you in my world
      I think I'd just pack up and leave

      It seems like I've waited a lifetime
      To find someone special like you
      If you ever walked out of my life
      I don't know what I would do

      'Cause if I didn't have you in my world
      What a lonely place my world would be
      If I didn't have you in my world
      I think I'd just pack up and leave

      You gave me a reason for livin'
      The first time I looked in your eyes
      I shudder to think what might happen
      If you ever told me goodbye

      Chorus


    8. A Little Left Over (Vince Gill)
      Musicians: Bass: Michael Rhodes, Drums: Larrie Londin, Acoustic Guitar: Mac McAnally, Electric Guitar: Vince Gill, Fiddle: Andrea Zonn, Steel Guitar: John Hughey, Background Vocals: Tony King, Vince Gill

      I work my fingers to the bone
      But you won't hear me cry and moan
      A workin' man don't need no welfare line

      Well I'll never be a millionaire
      And frankly I don't even care
      'Cause all I need to have a real good time

      Is a little left over
      On Saturday night
      If my bills are paid my plans are made
      And everything's alright
      Put on my ropers and them wranglers fittin' tight
      Got a little left over
      And it's Saturday night

      I don't drink but I love to dance
      With those sweet young things in their cowboy hats
      These country girls will be the death of me
      If that's the way I gotta go
      Lord I hope I die real slow
      'Till I do I'll tell you all I need

      Chorus


    9. What's A Man To Do (T.J. Knight, Curtis Wright)
      Musicians: Bass: Willie Weeks, Drums: Eddie Bayers, Acoustic Guitar: Mac McAnally, Electric Guitar: Billy Jo Walker, Jr., Vince Gill, Steel Guitar: John Hughey, Electric Keyboard: Pete Wasner, Acoustic Piano: Barry Beckett, Background Vocals: Herb Pedersen

      Before the tears I've cried
      Have even dried
      She'll be with him
      They'll look in each other's eyes
      And with her lips still warm with lies
      She'll kiss him

      And though she knows she's wrong
      She just keeps on
      Keepin' me hangin' on
      Tell me:

      Chorus:
      What's a man to do
      When the one he's promised to
      Finds somebody new
      Should I just stand by
      Watch the love I've lived for die
      Lord I wish I knew
      Tell me what's a man to do

      Maybe I'll make a stand

      Or should I just wash my hands
      Of her forever
      But I've never been alone
      Except for here at home
      When they're together

      And though I know it's wrong
      I let her go on
      Keepin' me hangin' on

      Repeat Chorus


    10. Sparkle (Jim Lauderdale, John Leventhal)
      Musicians: Bass: Michael Rhodes, Drums: Larrie Londin, Acoustic Guitar: Mac McAnally, Electric Guitar: Richard Bennett, Dano Electric Guitar: Larry Byron, Keyboards: Pete Wasner, Fiddle: Andrea Zonn, Background Vocals: Herb Pedersen

      Sparkle, there's gotta be a sparkle
      For you to love somebody
      For you to really know
      Brighter than the lights in the city
      It's more than being pretty
      The way you are inside

      Why are you cryin'
      Somebody's tryin'
      To be with you only all the time
      You hide behind tears
      Counting the fears
      You're so used to being alone

      Sparkle, there's gotta be a sparkle
      For you to love somebody
      For you to really know
      Sparkle, you got a certain sparkle
      I know I love somebody
      I gotta let it show

      (Instrumental Break)

      Nobody knows you
      They can't get too close to
      A girl who won't let down her disguise
      You won't believe how much someone could love you
      That someone is looking in your eyes

      Sparkle, it's gotta be a sparkle
      For you to love somebody
      For you to really know
      Brighter than the lights of the city
      It's more than being pretty
      It's the way you feel inside
      Sparkle

      (Instrumental Chorus Out)
