1.I Don't Wanna Go Back
Lyricist:Mike Gardner, Phillip Gardner, Robert Kearns
I just want to reveal one thing I know that's real
Don't you know what lives inside me
Don't you know it just might save me
I don't wanna go back where I've been
I don't wanna crawl back in that skin
I could not conceal
The light inside the veil
Don't you know it lives inside me
Don't you know it just might save me
I don't wanna go back where I've been
I don't wanna crawl back in that skin
And can you look at me?
I'm just a man that I'm tryin' to be
Don't you know what lives inside you
Don't you know it just might save you
I don't wanna go back where I've been
I don't wanna crawl back in that skin
I don't wanna go back where I've been
I don't wanna smile at my so called friends
I don't wanna go back where I've been
I just want a place where I fit in
I don't wanna go back, I don't wanna go back
I don't wanna go back, I don't wanna go back
2.1000 Dollar Car
Lyricist:Jr., Harry Connick
Thousand dollar car it ain't worth nothin'
Thousand dollar car it ain't worth shit
Might as well take your thousand dollars and set fire to it
Thousand dollar car ain't worth a dime
You lose your thousand dollar every time
Oh why did I ever buy, a thousand dollar car
Thousand dollar car is gonna let you down
More than it's ever gonna get you around
Replace your gaskets and paint over your rust
You'll still end up with something that you'll never trust
Thousand dollar car's life was through
'Bought 50,000 miles 'fore it got to you
Oh why did I ever buy, a thousand dollar car
A thousand dollar car ain't even gonna roll
'Til you throw at least another thousand in the hole
Sink your money in it, and there you are
The owner of a two thousand dollar thousand dollar car
If you've only got a thousand dollars
You ought to just buy a good guitar
Learn how to play it it'll take you farther
Than any old thousand dollar car
If a thousand dollar car was truly worth a damn
Then why would anybody ever spend ten grand
Oh why did I ever buy, a thousand dollar car
3.Indianapolis
Lyricist:Brian Henneman, Scott Taylor
Got a tow
From a guy named Joe
Cost sixty dollars
Hope I don't run out of dough
Told me 'bout a sex offense
Put him three days in jail
Stuck in Indianapolis
Hope I live to tell the tale
Can't go west, can't go east
I'm stuck in Indianapolis
With a fuel pump that's deceased
Ten days on the road now
I'm four hours from my home town
Is this Hell or Indianapolis
With no way to get around
Called my girl to tell her
Of the trouble that I'd had
First time I called her in ten days
Guess that made her mad
Far as she's concerned
I belong in this Hoosier state
Stuck in Indianapolis
With no way to set things straight
Can't go west, can't go east
I'm stuck in Indianapolis
With a fuel pump that's deceased
Ten days on the road now
I'm four hours from my home town
Is this Hell or Indianapolis
With no way to get around
Sittin' in this bar
Is gettin' more than I could stand
If I could catch a ride
Really think, I'd ditch this van
Who knows what this repair will cost
Scared to spend a dime
I'll puke if that jukebox plays
John Cougar one more time
But If I ever leave here
I hope never to return
If I get that van back
Man, the road, I'm gonna burn
Right now, my future's in the hands
Of the boys, down at Firestone
Stuck in Indianapolis
Feelin' all alone
Can't go west, can't go east
I'm stuck in Indianapolis
With a fuel pump that's deceased
Ten days on the road now
I'm four hours from my home town
Is this Hell or Indianapolis
With no way to get around
Is this Hell or Indianapolis
With no way to get around
4.Radar Gun
Lyricist:R Parr
Straight from 12th grade into junior college
Buddy, buddy, buddy, I passed my exam
They're making me a law enforcement person
Got me a gun and a badge, I'm a man
Radar gun, radar gun
43 from where I was sittin'
30 miles an hour is the law of our land
Please produce your license, find your registration
And what is the name of your insurance man?
Radar gun, radar gun
I'm makin' money and I'm havin' fun with my
Radar gun, radar gun
With my brand new radar gun
You know our Sheriff William Buckburger
Says our mayor's got a master plan
A new post gun meets the cost of livin'
And one of them stoplights down on grand
Radar gun, radar gun
I'm makin' money and I'm havin' fun with my
Radar gun, radar gun
With my brand new radar gun
Schedule 19 on a special election
Got our money problems right in hand
Droppin' them limits like a hot potato
50 down to 30, oh man, oh man
Radar gun, radar gun
I'm makin' money and I'm havin' fun with my
Radar gun, radar gun
With my brand new radar gun
Brand new shiny Simmons radar gun
Me and my partner go patrol car crusin'
On the parking lots at the shopping malls
Scanning those dashes, those mirrors and visors
The little detectors that ruin it all
Johnny got one on an '86 T-bird
Pull up slow just as close as I can
Milliwatt seconds on maximum output
We'll dust that puppy with one small blast from my
Radar gun, radar gun
I'm makin' money and I'm havin' fun with my
Radar gun, radar gun
With my brand new radar gun
