1.Do I Make You Proud
Lyricist:Tracy Ackerman, Andy Watkins, Paul David Wilson
I've never been
The one to raise my hand
That was not me
And now that's who I am
Because of you
I am standing tall
My heart is full
Of endless gratitude
You were the one
The one to guide me through
Now I can see
And I believe
It's only just beginning
This is what we dream about
But the only question with me now
Is, do I make you proud?
Stronger than I've ever been now
Never be afraid of standing out
But do I make you proud?
I guess I've learned
To question is to grow
That you still have faith
Is all I need to know
I've learned to love
Myself in spite of me
And I've learned to walk
The road that I believe
This is what we dream about
But the only question with me now
Is, do I make you proud?
Stronger than I've ever been now
Never be afraid of standing out
But do I make you proud?
Everybody needs to rise up
Everybody needs to be loved
To be loved
This is what we dream about
But the only question with me now
Is, do I make you, do I make you proud?
This is what we dream about
But the only question with me now
Is, do I make you proud?
Stronger than I've ever been now
Never be afraid of standing out
Do I make you proud?
This is what we dream about
But the only question with me now
Is, do I make you proud?
Stronger than I've ever been now
Never be afraid of standing out
Do I make you proud?
This is what we dream about
But the only question with me now
Is, do I make you, do I make you proud?

Lyricist:Michael H Mcdonald
You don't know me but I'm your brother

3.Woman Gotta Have It
Lyricist:Darryl Carter, Linda Cooke, Bobby Womack
Fella's I wonder would you mind if I talked to ya for a minute?
You know, sometimes we have a tendencies or should I say we
forget
What a woman needs every now and then
That is if you wanna keep your thing together, listen to me now
Do the things that keeps the smile on her face
Say the things that make her feel better everyday
Then you got to stay on your P's and Q's
And if you don't, the woman you can easily lose
Whoa oh, I had a love, a love and I lost her
And no one can help me share the pain that she caused me
Oh, a woman's gotta have it, I believe
She's gotta know that she's needed around
When you kiss her, you gotta make her feel it every time, boy
She wants to know that she's not walkin' on shaky ground
Whoa, yeah
Well, think it over, yeah, think it over, think it over my
brother
Don't take for granted the smile on her face
Check a little bit closer, you might find a tear trace, yeah
Maybe the girl might never say a mumblin' word, yeah
But you gotta make sure that her voice is heard
Whoa oh oh, I had a love, had a love, a true love and I lost it
Yes I did and I'm sufferin' all this pain that that love caused
me
A woman gotta have it, woman gotta have it
I believe she's got to know that she's needed around
You gotta make her feel it, you gotta make her feel it
Anytime boy, every time boy
She wants to know that she's not walkin' on shaky ground

4.West Texas Sky
Lyricist:Taylor Hicks
So you're drivin' away these miles
So far away from your southern home
Takin' your charms and dreams to the Golden State
Make your way, seal your fate
That's when you're gone away
Where no one will hear you cry
When you're late
For that west Texas sky
When you left home, I didn't think twice
Oh, I knew, you had to roam
I knew that life was getting you down
You always feel alone when there's no one around
But who gets cut when the knife is dull?
And who gets lost when the map is full?
Nobody wins and nobody loses
Just a handful of sorrows
And too many excuses
You wanted to walk beside the ocean
Oh, and stand beside the sea
And now you can't wait until tomorrow
There's so much to do
And so much to see
So you're drivin' away these miles
So far away from your southern home
Takin' your charms and dreams to the Golden State
Make your way, seal your fate
That's when you're gone away
Where no one will hear you cry
When you're late
For that west Texas sky
When you're late
For that west Texas sky
When you're late
For that west Texas sky
Mmm, hmm
When you're late
For that west Texas sky
For that west Texas sky
5.Son Of A Carpenter
Lyricist:Taylor Reuben Hicks
In the times too short to follow
A man as cold as steel
A work that can only be swallowed
By a fire lit kiln
Now the times are heavy on their shoulders
For the people who pave our ways
No more running for the future cause
The past is here today
For the son of a carpenter
I can feel your pain
For the son of a carpenter
Alone again
Decades of sorrow war and grief
And to many things going wrong
The land is wasted and time is running short
For their power is much too strong
For the son of a carpenter
I can feel your pain
For the son of a carpenter
Alone again
He has nothing but to be left alone
His hands and work should will be carried on
From a third generation son to
A future grandchild
The work of a carpenters
Makes the whole world smile
And to many thing going wrong
The land is wasted and time
Is running short for the work
Of a carpenters will carry on, carry on
