Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic Composer(s): Sting Performer(s): The Police; and various other artists
Though I've tried before to tell her Of the feelings I have for her in my heart Every time that I come near her I just lose my nerve As I've done from the start
Every little thing she does is magic Everything she do just turns me on Even though my life before was tragic Now I know my love for her goes on
Do I have to tell the story Of a thousand rainy days since we first met It's a big enough umbrella But it's always me that ends up getting wet
Every little thing she does is magic Everything she do just turns me on Even though my life before was tragic Now I know my love for her goes on
I resolve to call her up a thousand times a day And ask her if she'll marry me in some old fashioned way But my silent fears have gripped me Long before I reach the phone Long before my tongue has tripped me Must I always be alone?
Every little thing she does is magic Everything she do just turns me on Even though my life before was tragic Now I know my love for her goes on

Every Little Kiss Composer(s): Bruce Hornsby Performer(s): Bruce Hornsby; Sara Evans
Way out here, working on the docks Everyone sees the long day through Well what would I do without the nights and the phone And the chance just to talk to you What wouldn't I do now... Just to talk to you A thousand miles away What I wouldn't give for only one night Little relief in sight Someday when times weren't so tight
Chorus When the day goes down on the water town When the sun sinks low all around That's when I know I need you now You're what I miss Every little kiss Every little one, oh, every little one
Everybody here's a number, not a name But I guess that's all right with me As I sit alone after a long day In the absence of company Oh I let my mind wander... A thousand miles away What I wouldn't give for only one night Little relief in sight Someday when times weren't so tight

I'm going to live the life I sing about in my song I'm going to stand for right And always shun the wrong If I'm in the crowd Or if I'm alone On the street or in my home I'm going to live the life I sing about in my song, yes!
Every day, every night I must always walk in the light Some mistake me, underrate me Because I want to do what's right I can't go to church And shout all day Sunday Go out and get drunk And raise's all day monday (?) I've got to live the life I sing about in my song
I'm going to live the life I sing about in my song I'm going to live the life I sing about in my song

Every Fool Has A Rainbow Composer(s): Merle Haggard Performer(s): Merle Haggard; The Strangers
Every fool has a rainbow But he never seems to find The reward that should be waiting At the end of the line But he'll give up a bed of roses for A life filled with thorns And go chasing after rainbows Everytime the dream is born And every fool has a rainbow that only he can see Every fool has a rainbow and the rule replies to me And every fool has a rainbow that only he can see Every fool has a rainbow and the rule replies to me
Every Day Is A New Day Composer(s): Malik Pendelton; Juanita Wynn; Tracey Anderson Performer(s): Diana Ross
Every day is a new day Since you went away
Since you went away from me My whole life has made a change Every day's a new day and I see It was best for you and me
Since you went away from me My whole life has made a change Every day's a new day Since you went away from me
You were my comfort zone I depended on you for everything I wanted in my life, yes I did
But now that you're gone I'm doing just fine without you How I bless the day you went away
Now I have a song inside The birds sing to me I finally can be Free to spread my wings in harmony
Now the sun shines on me I have been set free To collect my thoughts and jot them down All this happiness I've found Since you've been away
Since you went away from me My whole life has made a change Every day's a new day and I see It was best for you and me
Since you went away from me My whole life has made a change Every day's a new day Since you went away from me
It may sound crazy, but I forgive you And want the best for you The circumstances came my way Now I've learned to do for myself And all the things I thought That you would do for me Like leaving me alone To go for my own When you're not at home I'm glad you're gone
Now I have a song inside The birds sing to me I finally can be Free to spread my wings in harmony
Now the sun shines on me I have been set free To collect my thoughts and jot them down All this happiness I've found
Since you went away from me My whole life has made a change Every day's a new day and I see It was best for you and me
Since you went away from me My whole life has made a change Every day's a new day Since you went away from me
Since you went away from me My whole life has made a change Every day's a new day and I see It was best for you and me How I bless that day
Since you went away from me My whole life has made a change Every day's a new day Since you went away from me
Every day
Since you went away from me My whole life has made a change Every day's a new day and I see It was best for you and me
Since you went away from me My whole life has made a change Every day's a new day Since you went away from me
I'm Gonna Hire A Wino To Decorate Our Home Composer(s): DeWayne Blackwell Performer(s): David Frizzell
I came crawling home last night, like many nights before I finally made it to my feet as she opened up the door And she said, "You're not gonna do this anymore"
She said, "I'm gonna hire a wino to decorate our home So you'll feel more at ease here, and you won't have to roam We'll take out the dining room table, and put a bar along that wall And a neon sign, to point the way to our bathroom down the hall"
She said, "Just bring your Friday paycheck, and I'll cash them all right here And I'll keep on tap, for all your friends, their favorite kinds of beer And for you, I'll always keep in stock, those soft aluminum cans And when you're feeling macho, you can crush them like a man"
She said, "We'll rip out all the carpet, and put sawdust on the floor Serve hard boiled eggs and pretzels, and I won't cook no more There'll be Monday night football on T.V. above the bar And a pay phone in the hallway, when your friends can't find their car"
She said, "I'm gonna hire a wino to decorate our home So you'll feel more at ease here, and you won't have to roam We'll take out the dining room table, and put a bar along that wall And a neon sign, to point the way to our bathroom down the hall"
She said, "You'll get friendly service, and for added atmosphere I'll slip on something sexy, and I'll cut it clear to here Then you can slap my bottom every time you tell a joke Just as long as you keep tipping, well, I'll laugh until you're broke"
She said, "Instead of family quarrels, we'll have a bar-room brawl When the Ham's bear say's its closing time, you won't have far to crawl And when you run out of money, you'll have me to thank You can sleep it off next morning, when I'm putting it in the bank"
She said, "I'm gonna hire a wino to decorate our home So you can feel more at ease here, and you won't have to roam When you and your friends get off from work, and have a powerful thirst There won't be any reason, why you can't stop off here first"
She said, "I'm gonna hire a wino to decorate our home So you'll feel more at ease here, and you won't have to roam We'll take out the dining room table, and put a bar along that wall And a neon sign, to point the way to our bathroom down the hall"
