- Julie Roberts - "Break Down Here"
(James Brown and Patrick Matthews)
Mile marker 203, the gas gauge leanin' on the edge of "E",
An' I'll be danged if the rain ain't pourin' down.
There's somethin' smokin' underneath the hood,
It's a-bangin' and a-clangin' an' it can't be good,
An' it's another fifty miles to the nearest town.
Everythin' I own's in the back in a hefty bag;
I'm outta cigarettes an' I'm down to my last drag.
I'd sure hate to break down here,
Nothin' up ahead or in the rear view mirror.
Out in the middle of no-where, knowin',
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin'.
So, God help me, keep me movin' somehow.
Don't let me start wishin' I was with him now.
I made it this far without cryin' a single tear.
I'd sure hate to break down here.
Under fifty thousand miles ago,
Before the bad blood an' busted radio,
He said I was all he had ever needed.
But love is blind an' little did I know,
You were just another dead end road,
Made with pretty lies an' broken dreams.
Baby, leavin' you is easier than bein' gone.
I don't know what I'll do if one more thing goes wrong.
I'd sure hate to break down here,
Nothin' up ahead or in the rear view mirror.
Out in the middle of no-where, knowin',
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin'.
So, God help me, keep me movin' somehow.
Don't let me start wishin' I was with him now.
I made it this far without cryin' a single tear.
An' I'd sure hate to break down here.
Oh, no.
I'd sure hate to break down here,
With nothin' up ahead or in the rear view mirror.
Out in the middle of no-where, knowin',
I'm in trouble if these wheels stop rollin'.
So, God help me, keep me movin' somehow.
Don't let me start wishin' I was with him now.
I made it this far without cryin' a single tear.
An' I'd sure hate to break down,
It's too late to turn around.
I'd sure hate to break down here.
Mile marker 215.
- Julie Roberts - "Rain on a Tin Roof"
His eyes are blue just like the ocean
His heart is a river free
And now and then he gets the notion
And he finds his way to me
His love's like
Rain on a tin roof
The sweet song of a summertime storm
And oh, the way that it moves you
It's a melody of passion ragin' on
And then it's gone
He tells me he'll be back to see me
Every time he has to go
And I keep wondering' just when that'll be
'Cause with him you never know
His love's like
Rain on a tin roof
The sweet song of a summertime storm
And oh, the way that it moves you
It's a melody of passion ragin' on
And then it's gone
And just like a thirsty field, I can't complain a bit
'Cause I'm thankful for every single drop I get
His love's like Rain on a tin roof
The sweet song of a summertime storm
And oh, the way that it moves you
It's a melody of passion ragin' on
And then it's gone
And then it's gone
Then it's gone
- Julie Roberts - "You Ain't Down Home"
You know all the right people
You wear all of the right clothes
You got a snappy little sports car all your own
You got the cool conversation on your high tech telephone
But you got one little problem, baby
You ain't down home
You ain't down home where the people got their feet on the ground
Down home where there's plenty of love to go 'round
You got the cool conversation on your high tech telephone
But you got one little problem, baby
You ain't down home
You got a brand new Jacuzzi
All your credit cards are gold
There ain't a high class place in town where you ain't known
You make it all look impressive, yeah you put on quite a show
But you got one little problem, baby
You ain't down home
You ain't down home where the people got their feet on the ground
Down home where there's plenty of love to go 'round
You make it all look impressive, yeah you put on quite a show
You got one little problem, baby
You ain't down home
You make it all look so impressive, yeah when you're showin' all your dough
But you got one little problem, baby
You ain't down home
There's this one little problem, baby
You ain't down home
- Julie Roberts - "Pot of Gold"
All alone in a cafe
I watch the world rushin' by
they're all dreamin' about dollars
and thinkin' about mountains that they have to climb
A woman checks her reflection
A man straightens his tie
They wear troubled expressions
And meanwhile I sit here and smile
You can chase all the silver
If you need riches to hold
You can run after rainbows
'Cause I just found my pot of gold
I just met him last weekend
We've been out a few times
And it may seem to soon
but when he kissed me I knew
That he was my purpose in life
You can chase all the silver
'Cause I found somethin' to hold
You can run after rainbows
'Cause I just found my pot of gold
You can chase all the silver
'Cause I just found my soul
You can run after rainbows
'Cause I just found my pot
I just found my pot
I just found my pot of gold
All alone in a cafe
I watch the world rushin' by
They're all dreamin' about dollars
and meanwhile I'll just sit here and smile
- Julie Roberts - "Unlove Me"
Unloose this hold you've got on me
Unlock this heart that can't get free
Unlive the night you kissed and hugged me
Undream the dreams that we both shared
Unfeel the feeling that you care
Before you leave me
Please unlove me
Unlove me
Unmake all the memories I can't forget
Unlove me
Let me go back to the way I was before we met
Back to the days when I was strong
When it wasn't sad to be alone
When I was happy-go-lucky
And I didn't know how good it felt
To hold you and feel my heart melt
Show a little mercy and unlove me
Unlove me
Untie all the strings between your heart and mine
Unlove me
Do it real slow so I don't have to lose you all at one time
Before you pack your bags and leave
One thing I wish you'd do for me
Take a little time to just unlove me
Unlove me
Unmake all the memories I can't forget
Unlove me
let me go back to the way I was before we met
Unloose this hold you've got on me
Unlock this heart that can't get free
Before you leave me
Please unlove me
Show a little mercy and unlove me
- Julie Roberts - "Wake Up Older"
Slept in my make-up
Didn't get my teeth brushed
Crashed on the couch
And now my mouth tastes like
Yesterday's news
Well, hello Jim Bean
Oh, the places you've seen
If only you could talk
You'd tell me why he walked out on me and you
Oh, the things lovers do when it's over
Oh, the things lovers do when it's done
We'll find a cool bottle
or a warm shoulder
Wake up older
and try to move up
I drove around last night
Thinkin' about our last fight
I cruise by your house
and all the lights were out
and you were gone
So, I found me a stranger
With his comfort in danger
but I thought about you
the whole time we were gettin' it on
Oh, the things lovers do when it's over
Oh, the things lovers do when it's done
We'll find a cool bottle
or a warm shoulder
Wake up older
and try to move on
We'll find a cool bottle
or a warm shoulder
Wake up older
Wake up older
Slept in my make-up
Didn't get my teeth brush
Crashed on the couch
and now my mouth tastes like
yesterday's news
