A MAN IS A MAN
When we're out on the town He's in his tight bluejeans Women give him the eye As they pass by Once in awhile He might return their looks But I understand A Man Is A Man Sometimes he seems A million miles away Talking sports to the guys On a long Saturday And he might mention An old romance Well, nobody's perfect A Man Is A Man A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do That's okay if he takes care of you A man's gotta be what a man's gotta be But he'd better save his last dance for me He's gotta take care of me When I need a friend Stand by me Until the end He's gotta be there at night When the lights go down Love me like nobody can A Man Is A Man solo A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do That's okay if he takes care of you A man's gotta be what a man's gotta be But he'd better save his last dance for me He's gotta take care of me When I need a friend Stand by me Until the end He's gotta be there at night When the lights go down Love me like nobody can A Man Is A Man He's gotta love me like nobody can A Man Is A Man Jim Colyer ascap |

| A MAN NEEDS A WOMAN | A MAN NEEDS A WOMAN
I got my job
I make enough to get by My bills are paid I own my own place But every night when I come home I look around and I'm alone A Man Needs A Woman I got some friends We hang out together It's baseball games Karaoke bars But when they turn out the lights And you've got to face the night A Man Needs A Woman This loneliness surrounds me As I rise from my bed The Waffle House Has become my second home They turn around to look As I walk through the door They're desperate I see it in their eyes solo The sun comes up I tell myself I must go on Who could she be? This woman that I need This emptiness inside me Is more than I can stand A Man Needs A Woman Jim Colyer ASCAP |
A MAN NEEDS A WOMAN
The night I wrote it, I rose from my bed and went to the Waffle House on Murfreesboro Road in Nashville. |

I'd swim the ocean blue
If I thought I could reach you I'd brave the darkest night If I had you in my sight I'd do most anything To win your love To write the songs you sing Agnetha Your kisses thrill me As I feel your warm embrace I'd walk a million miles To see your smiling face I'd do most anything To win your love Wear my wedding ring Agnetha For you, Agnetha, I'd live I'd give you all my love I'd give it all To know what you're thinking of For you, Agnetha, I'd change I'd dedicate my life I'd give it all Just to have you for my wife solo You are so beautiful Like an angel when you're near I'd climb the mountains high Without knowing any fear I'd do most anything For your precious love To write the songs you sing Agnetha Wear my wedding ring Agnetha Jim Colyer ascap |

It's not about the money you bring in

I gave 'em a smile and said, "Be cool" Back In The 60s Back In The 60s My girl friend said she was on my side Told her mamma I's the intellectual kind Draft board said you're going to Vietnam I flashed 'em a peace sign and said stay calm Back In The 60s Back In The 60s Back In The 60s I was young and strong Had lots of women and the Top 40 songs We had The Beatles and The Rolling Stones Back In The 60s you were never alone Back In The 60s I turned 21 Drove a Chevrolet and went looking for fun Jane and Raquel up on the movie screen Back In The 60s we were diggin' the scene July of 69, we walked on the moon Crosby, Stills and Nash did a Woodstock tune My fellow Americans, we had a heavy heart Looking for a way to make a new start Back In The 60s Back In The 60s I finally got drafted and went to Germany But I knew that girl would never wait for me Tricky Dicky said things were perfectly clear There won't be a Watergate for another 3 years Back In The 60s Back In The 60s Back In The 60s I was young and strong Had lots of women and the Top 40 songs We had The Beatles and The Rolling Stones Back In The 60s you were never alone Back In The 60s I turned 21 Drove a Chevrolet and went looking for fun Jane and Raquel up on the movie screen Back In The 60s we were diggin' the scene Back In The 60s Back In The 60s Back In The 60s Back In The 60s Jim Colyer ascap |
BACK IN THE 60S
I wrote this on a city bus in Las Vegas in 1993. I was the first boy at Eastern High School in Louisville, Kentucky to have long hair after The Beatles came over in 1964. I turned 21 in 1967 and drove a Chevrolet Impala. Candy Heim was my girl friend. Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the moon, July 20, 1969. The Woodstock rock festival was in August. I had no desire to go to Vietnam. Jane is Jane Fonda. Raquel is Raquel Welch. Tricky Dicky is Richard Nixon. The Watergate scandal occurred 1972-74. I blend my personal life with national and world events. |

Birds Of A Feather flock together
Truer words were never spoken Old men care about the weather The circle's still unbroken Birds Of A Feather flock together Looks attract looks, oh yeah Young men share beautiful women The lonely live in books, oh yeah I wrote a song called, "Gimme Some Money!" I know a few millionaires But everytime I'm down on my luck The rich people disappear I was walking down the street in a crowd of 20 To guard my anonymity If there's a bum within a thousand miles He's gonna come up to me Birds Of A Feather flock together Truer words were never spoken Old men care about the weather The circle's still unbroken Birds Of A Feather flock together Looks attract looks, oh yeah Young men share beautiful women The lonely live in books, oh yeah I joined Together, a dating service Tried to get back in the mix I told 'em find someone half my age A young woman's what I need They said we're gonna put you with your group You'll find a woman your own age I said if I wanted a 50-year-old I'd still be with my ex-wife Birds Of A Feather flock together Truer words were never spoken Old men care about the weather The circle's still unbroken Birds Of A Feather flock together Looks attract looks, oh yeah Young men share beautiful women The lonely live in books, oh yeah Jim Colyer ASCAP |

People stay in their class. The rich stick together. Couples form within age groups. |

My name is Kymberly
A Michigan girl I drove down to Nashville Gave it a whirl They rolled out the carpet I'm giving country music a fling They said, "Girl! You're gonna make it!" You were Born To Sing! I pitched my tent In the studio 16th Avenue Music Row I'm not in the office I'm not into that kind of thing I was never meant to type I was Born To Sing! I got a 5-piece band, they're devoted to me Hottest young pickers down in Tennessee Songwriters pitching me their latest songs Radio playing to the folks back home Fan letters coming in from 50 states I'll be in your town, look for the dates My agent called in the middle of the night We're leaving for Branson on the morning flight solo (bridge) Some women work In a restaurant Others get off Giving men what they want Well, I'm no different I've got a country king But he understands I was Born To Sing! He understands I was Born To Sing! solo (verse) Jim Colyer ascap |

And we'd no be judged We paid no attention Not a single man will budge We all form opinions Of our neighbors and our friends We're all guilty, just how much We should know in the end Everybody Is To Blame All in all it's still the same The only difference is your name Everybody Is To Blame Hating one another For the things we do ourselves Feeling that our own viewpoints Were made for someone else Swelling up with pride Because of little things we've won Taking all the glory For what someone else has done Everybody Is To Blame All in all it's still the same The only difference is your name Everybody Is To Blame solo (Chorus) Working for the better things So we can help our kids Telling them what's right and wrong While hiding what we did Waiting for the time We can retire and they are grown Hoping we're not pushed aside The way we did our own Everybody Is To Blame All in all it's still the same The only difference is your name Everybody Is To Blame Everybody Is To Blame All in all it's still the same The only difference is your name Everybody Is To Blame Jim Colyer ascap |

Moralistic. I can hear Johnny Cash doing this one. |

I was driving hard and I was paying dues
I didn't have a whole lot to lose Then you came along Turned my whole world around I was living in the streets, staying on the run Living in restaurants wasn't any fun Then you came along Fed me a home-cooked meal Now I'm staying at home every night We're sitting by the fire Everything's Alright I was drinking like a fish, out of control My morale at an all-time low Then you came along Led me away from the bar Now I'm satisfied with my life We're laying in our bed Everything's Alright Everything's honky-dory There's no end to our love story solo I was driving hard and I was paying dues I didn't have a whole lot to lose Then you came along Turned my whole world around I was living in the streets, staying on the run Living in restaurants wasn't any fun Then you came along Fed me a home-cooked meal Now I'm staying at home every night We're sitting by the fire Everything's Alright Now I'm satisfied with my life We're laying in our bed Everything's Alright JIM COLYER ascap |
