Always fight for the underdog to win
Don’t lose sleep if you’re not fitting in
Pour love upon others
All race, creed, or color with compassion
Look out for your brother
Together find your rainbow connection
Don’t lose heart if someone that you charmed turns you down
(Don’t let it get you down. Don’t let it get you down)
There’s oceans of fish, wait and see, and yours will come around
(Just slow it down. Don’t rush being found)
Notice all kinds of flowers, and how they are all tended to
(As sure as the sun keeps rising)
Trust the one up above will always take that kind of care of you
Don’t seek fame or wealth or popularity
(Got no time for that. No No No it always falls flat)
Just follow your heart, trust your gut, and then go where it leads
(Gotta trust where you’re at, can’t go wrong with that)
Follow the swallows, and fly without fear, and so fast
(Keep flying higher and higher)
Enjoy the adventure
The good with the bad
Life’s a gas
Chorus:
Life is a gas
Comes at you fast
So quit talkin’ sass
This too shall pass
Right? Right?
Try waking some miles in shoes that don’t belong to you
(It’s not much to ask. Don’t take a pass)
You might be surprised what they’ve been going through
(Don’t forget to ask. You know people forget to ask)
Always take chances
Don’t sit in the past, let it pass
(Just let the past roll past now)
Time moves so fast, so take time to laugh
Life’s a gas
Chorus:
Life is a gas
Comes at you fast
So quit talkin’ sass
This too shall pass, Right?
Life is a gas
(Life is a gas)
Comes at you fast
(Comes at you fast)
So quit talkin’ sass
(Quit talkin’ sass)
This too shall pass
Life is a gas

Fly little crow
High as a kite until you’re breathless
Wild and bold like your mother’s clothes
Little Rock may you roll
Slow and steady like the Cumberland River
May you wind down every road
Ask me all kinds of questions
I’ll tell you everything I know
When I cannot find the answers
I’ll help you find them on your own
Tell them girls they’re more than pretty
Keep those mean boys on their toes
When you’re wrestling with Jesus
May his love, with its push and shove
be the thing you hold
Twirl little girl
Follow your heart, and be sure to guard it
Take care where you cast your pearls
Never settle little petal
Use your voice and stand up tall
Lead those flowers from the wall
Ask me all kinds of questions
I’ll tell you everything I know
When I cannot find the answers
I’ll help you find them on your own
Teach them boys you’re more than pretty
Keep those mean girls on their toes
When you’re wrestling with Jesus
May his love, with its push and shove
be the thing you hold onto
Ask me all kinds of questions
I’ll tell you everything I know
When I cannot find the answers
I’ll help you find them on your own
Tell them girls they're more than pretty
Keep those mean boys on their toes
When you’re wrestling with Jesus
May his love, with its push and shove
be the thing you hold onto

Close your eyes
Give me your hand darling
Do you feel my heart beating
Do you understand
Do you feel the same
Am I only dreaming
Or is this burning an eternal flame
I believe it’s meant to be darling
I watch you when you are sleeping
You belong to me
Do you feel the same
Am I only dreaming
Or is this burning an eternal flame
Call my name
Sun shines through the rain
A whole life so lonely
Then you come and ease the pain
I don’t want to lose this feeling oh
Close your eyes
Give me your hand darling
Do you feel my heart beating
Do you understand
Do you feel the same
Am I only dreaming
Or is this burning an eternal flame?
Close your eyes
(Close your eyes)
Give me your hand
(do you understand)
Close your eyes
(Close your eyes)
Give me your hand
(Am I only dreaming)
Close your eyes
(Close your eyes)
Give me your hand
(You belong to me)
Close your eyes
(Close your eyes)
Give me your hand
(Am I only dreaming)
Close your eyes
(Close your eyes)
Close your eyes
You belong to me
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Close your eyes

_________________________________________________________________
You’ve got to give a little
Take a little
And let your poor heart break a little
That’s the story of
That’s the glory of love
You’ve got to laugh a little
Cry a little
Until the clouds roll by a little
That’s the story of
That’s the glory of love
As long as there’s the two of us
We’ve got the world and all its charms
And when the world is through with us
We’ve got each other’s arms
You’ve got to win a little
Lose a little
And always have the blues a little
That’s the story of
That’s the glory of love
My mama told me
That’s the glory of love
