YES I DO
Words and Music by David Morgan
Do I want to make love to you
Yes I do
Little nip and hug with you
Kissin' too
Do I want to get close to you
Baby make the most of you
Yes I do
Do I want to make love
Baby, yes I do
Would I like to get right with you
Yes I would
Baby spend all night with you
That'd be good
You know, I'd like to get next to you
I think you're sweet
Think you're sexy too
Yes I do
Do I want to make love
Baby, yes I do
BRIDGE
We'd be making up for time we lost
Burnin' every bridge we cross
Baby ain't no turning back
We've really done it now baby
That's a fact
You know you're holding this heart of mine
In your hand
I can show you a real good time
Yeah, yes I can
But I need to get in with you
Fire it up
Take a spin with you
Yes I do
Do I want to make love
Baby, yes I do

GONNA BE ROUGH
Words by David Morgan and Dwayne Smith
Music by David Morgan
Honey, I know how you feel
And I'm feeling for you
Cause it seems so unreal
Like it just can't be true
Cause I'm certain that leaving is right
But you're hurtin' and grieving tonight
CHORUS
It's gonna be rough for a while
It's gonna make you feel bad
You're gonna be sad
You're gonna be lonely
It's gonna be hard to take
But you will ease back in time
You're gonna be fine
Just gonna be rough for a while
Darlin', we do what we can
But there's not much to say
Pretty soon you'll understand
There ain't no other way
And it's going to hurt for a while
But you're going to make it in style
CHORUS
BRIDGE
It's gonna be hardest on you
Cause there isn't one thing you can do
Ain't no words you can say
That will make this okay
You're gonna be fighting your fears
You're gonna be shedding your tears
But you will find in the end
That the pain goes away
It's going to hurt for a while
But you're going to make it in style
CHORUS

ANOTHER FINE MESS
Words by David Morgan and Geraldine Stevens
Music by David Morgan
It's not the years, it's the mileage
Finally shakes you apart
You get tired of putting your face on
Tired of mending your heart
I thought I'd been through everything love could do
Felt I had nothing to fear
Hardened and wise, 'til I looked in your eyes
And everything else disappeared
CHORUS
Lord, I guess
This is another fine mess
I've gotten myself into
You'd think I'd be more
In control than before
Knowing the things that I do
I thought I'd be smart
In command of my heart
'Til I took a look at you
And this is more or less
Another fine mess
I've gotten myself into
It's not the days, it's the distance
The number of times that you fell
That gradually steals your resistance
To sitting at home by yourself
Living alone quite content on my own
Never imagining you
Could walk in one day and clear all that away
And make all my sweet dreams come true
CHORUS
It's not the start, it's the ending
Never comes out like you planned
Don't see no point in pretending
That someone, somewhere, understands
So I'm thinking of you and a love that came true
Only to leave me behind
Paying the cost; knowing what I've lost
Remembering when it was mine
CHORUS

Dad Like You

DAD LIKE YOU
Words and Music by David Morgan
Me and my son were out having some fun
We were donut shopping all over town
We were sugared up good, we was out on the neighborhood
Laughing and messing around
He was asking me questions I was doing my best
To tell him everything he wanted to know
When a guy with a cart came in out of the dark
Ordered a coffee to go
He was reeking of gin, he was ragged and thin
And he looked like he'd been hungry awhile
He was 'bout out of gas, but he paused as he passed
Gave my boy a wink and a smile
So I said, "Give him five son, to show you're alive"
And my baby slapped his hand like a man
The guy looked at me, and said "Sir, if you please,
Answer me this if you can."
CHORUS
"Why didn't I have a dad like you
Someone to care for me, someone to talk to
Who loved me enough to do the best he could do
Why didn't I have a dad like you
Why didn't I have a dad
Like you"
He said, "I grew up wild, as an unwanted child
And I never did quite understand
Cause the father I had wasn't much of a dad
Lived with a drink in his hand
And he'd get in his cups, and he'd beat us all up
And when he wasn't drunk he was gone
But the hardest for me, was just knowing that he
Wished I had never been born."
CHORUS
BRIDGE
You take him for donuts, you dress him for school
You tell him you love him, he knows that he's cool
He's learning the things that a boy needs to know
He's with you wherever you go
I said, "Thank you my friend, and God knows I'm tryin'
And I'm glad you think I've got what it takes
And I wish it were true, but between me and you
I know I'm making mistakes"
He said, "There ain't no rules, there ain't no daddy schools
I'm not talking 'bout what's wrong or what's right
Cause you're doin' your best, and you're passing the test
Every time you kiss him good-night"
CHORUS

NOW I DON'T BELIEVE
THAT ANYMORE
Words and Music by David Morgan
Well, it looks like everybody's life
Is filled with things they think are right
Things that they believe they know for sure
Once I thought you laughed at clowns
And nothing kept a good man down
Now I don't believe that anymore
So many things I thought I knew
Have since turned out to be untrue
And left me on the dark side of the door
Once I thought that love was blind
And I was strong and you were kind
Now I don't believe that anymore
BRIDGE
Well, it's strange how many old ideas
Have just turned out to be
Things that someone said to me
Before I found out differently
Once I thought an honest man
Could count on winning in the end
And time would always settle every score
Once I thought that love was free
And you were everything to me
Now I don't believe that anymore

DON'T MIND IF I DO
Words and Music by David Morgan
My baby thinks money grows on trees
She said I'm something she don't need
She said love only makes you cry
She said a home is a thing you buy
My baby says she's out the door
Going out looking for something more
Well, I'm sitting down drinkin' in a valley dive
You know I should go home but I'm scared to drive
Sitting on my stool 'bout to sip one more
When I see a little girl I've seen before
She says, "Honey, let's take a chance.
You know, the evening is young
The evening's young
The evening's young, would you care to dance?"
CHORUS
Don't mind if I do
I don't care at all
You never know when true love
Might come to call
This could be real
Oh, we just might fall
Don't care if I do
Don't mind at all
My baby says she's seen enough
She don't want to hear that same old stuff
She says she did the best she could
My baby says that it's just no good
Little girl says she's been to school
And I'd better start looking for some new fool
CHORUS

YOU DON'T HAVE A HEART
Music and Lyrics by David Morgan and Larry Brown
You could have told me, you didn't love me anymore
Why did you have to make me crazy
After all this time my heart still pounds
Every time there's a knock at the door
You think I love you, well maybe
CHORUS
Maybe I'm the fool that feels the pain
But at least, I can sleep at night
I'm over all the nights when I lied awake
Thinkin' was I wrong or I right
I might never be the man again
Who comes a runnin' when you call
And I might be the one with the broken heart
But you don't have a heart at all
You could have loved me, but instead you went and lied
I'll bet you thought that it was funny
Thought that you had stole my heart and soul
But here's a big surprise
I'm gonna find another honey
CHORUS

HARD TO RECEIVE
Words and Music by David Morgan
He was just out riding
Not going anywhere
The unlikeliest of accidents
Left him in a chair
But his spirit is unyielding
And his heart's in overdrive
And he's got his faith to
Keep his hope alive
There is something great within him
He will triumph in the end
I'm proud to say I know him
I'm glad that he's my friend
But still he's only human
And there are sometimes days
When even he will
Look at me and say
Every day I fight the fear
Of what my life will bring
I feel ugly and unworthy
Needing help with everything
I don't know what's more blessed
But my friend I guarantee
It's easier to give than to receive
CHORUS
Easy to give
Hard to receive
Hard to forgive
Hard to believe
Sure as I live
You can take it from me
It's blessed to give
But it's hard to receive
BRIDGE
I have always been the one to lend a helping hand
Now I'm in a situation I don't understand
I've always been the one to come and help
when friends were down
Now I need the help of friends, just to get around
He tells himself that it will all
Be worth it in the end
Cause he'll come through so much stronger
Than he ever would have been
But still some days the outcome
Is uncertain in his mind
And he needs all the courage
He can find
He says, "Some days I awaken
And I open up my eyes
And I say, 'Thank God it's all a dream.'
And then I try to rise.
There's no way you can understand
The way it makes me feel
To realize again that
This is real"
Every day I fight the fear
Of what my life will bring
I feel ugly and unworthy
Needing help with everything
I don't know what's more blessed
But my friend I guarantee
It's easier to give than to receive
CHORUS

GROOVE DOWN THERE
Words and Music by David Morgan and Richard Calhoun
When your heart don't beat in rhythm
And your world is inside out
And you don't know what to do about
The things you're doin' without
You're lookin' for some answers
But ain't nothin' comes to mind
Look down deep inside yourself
I'll tell you what you'll find
CHORUS
There's gonna be a groove down there
You're gonna see a reason why
If you're looking for the truth somewhere
Let me tell you that the groove don't lie
We all have music in our hearts
Until the day we die
Deny it if you want to, I don't care
You look down deep inside
You're gonna find a groove down there
When the world is on your shoulders
And you got no place to sit
And you'd sell your soul for just one chance
To rest a little bit
Keep your heart together
Leave your soul where it belongs
Listen for your melody
And it won't do you wrong
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Don't you know that the groove will stay
When everything else is gone
Gonna make you feel okay
Gonna make you feel at home
Gonna get through the problems
Gonna get you past the pain
When everything else is gone
Don't you know that the groove remains
CHORUS

WE CAN BE FRIENDS
Words and Music by David Morgan
We fought hard to stay together
Holding so much pain inside
We kept on trying with a love
That cannot be denied
But darling peace is not a crime
And maybe it is finally time
To call this thing a draw
And let it ride
CHORUS
So we can be friends
Free to let the unimportant things go by
We can be friends
Friends who love each other, never asking why
We've got to stop this heartbreak now
It's time to end the pain
Ain't no cause to be ashamed
If we can be friends
Can't nobody call us quitters
After all these years we spent
Now we have to understand
What all those years have meant
Every day a battlefield
With neither side prepared to yield
And neither with the strength
To fight again
CHORUS
But we could be friends
I'll be good to you and you be good to me
We can be friends
Friends who love each other
Like we used to be
This battle now is over
And that surely can't be bad
Darlin' why should we be sad
If we can be friends
BRIDGE
With just a little courage we can turn this thing around
If we don't burn our bridges we'll just keep on losing ground
There's nothing more we have to prove
It makes no sense to wait
It's time to go our separate ways
While it's still not too late
CHORUS
We can be friends
I'll be good to you and you be good to me
We can be friends
Friends who love each other like we used to be
We've got to stop this heartbreak now
It's time to end the pain
Ain't no cause to be ashamed
If we can be friends

SONG FOR A BABY
Words by David Morgan and Alicia Morgan
Music by David Morgan
CHORUS LIttle on the outside; big on the inside
The body is helpless but the heart is strong
The mind is clear; the spirit is willing
The world is waiting and it won't be long
I can see by your eyes that you wonder
Where you are and what all this means
Is it some kind of spell that we're under
Sent to someplace we've never seen
If I could give you the answers that's just what I'd do
But I got a feeling I know less than you
CHORUS
Some believe that we're all random dancers
With no direction; no book of rules
Others figure that they have the answers
Want to tell you what you should do
But you're just gonna have to find out for yourself
You'll never get it from somebody else
CHORUS
When I look in your eyes
It is such a surprise
To become a believer again
It's a wonder to see
What we're intended to be
Angels that might have been

WOULDN'T CHANGE A THING
Words by David Morgan and Richard Calhoun
Music by David Morgan
I've shed a lot of tears along the road that led to you
I can't say that I liked it, but it's what I had to do
But when you've been through hell and back
There's one thing that's for sure
Little things don't scare you any more
No one can predict the kind of hand that life will deal
The past is all behind us it's the future that is real
It turned out so much better than I ever thought it would
That I wouldn't change it even if I could
CHORUS
No, I wouldn't change a thing in spite of all that I've done wrong
I don't regret a moment of the road that I've been on
Cause everything that I've been through
Has finally led me home to you
And with you here beside me I can say
That I wouldn't change a thing along the way
BRIDGE
Trouble is a teacher that can shine down deep inside
Light up all the corners where your demons try to hide
You can't appreciate the sun until you've felt the rain
And you can't believe the good times 'til you understand the pain
It had to count for something and it all came down to you
My fondest wish delivered; all my sweetest dreams come true
To get to where I am, I had to live through yesterday
But you're more than worth the price I had to pay
CHORUS
