American Working Man 03:18
lyrics
download
American Working Man D G D A Got laid off from the factory the other day They say that they can no longer afford to pay A man who's worked there all his life Got kids and a wife Chevy says that it just can't do it anymore And neither can Chrysler or even Ford It's hard to read the writing on the wall When the thinking's so small G D G D G A D Feel the pain of the working man It's a shame upon our land They built this country into what it is today American working man My daddy worked before me and his daddy before him They made this country strong by never giving in Now they say they just can't win anymore So they sold the store And everybody's screaming about the Germans and Japanese But we can whip them once again If you please But they took the food from our children's mouths They sent our jobs south Feel the pain of the working man It's a shame upon our land They built this country into what it is today Say a prayer for the working man Let him know you give a damn They built this country into what it is today American working man Copyright 1992,1995 Michael J.

Enough 02:45

Enough G Em C D America What you doing Can you tell me where you've gone When the individual outranks the many And their rights become our wrongs C Em C G C G Em C Anarchy is not freedom Cause for freedom you've got to pay Society without sanction That's not the way America Gotta get back on your feet Get back out there Take back our streets America Yes we live free But with freedom comes So much responsibility So take the drugs and killers off the streets Hang em high if you must Our children's futures are far too precious I think we've had enough I know we've had enough Copyright 1992,1995 Michael James McNulty

Trouble 04:22
lyrics

Trouble G Em C Hard times Bad rhymes Can often make a man feel down Same old line Seems so out of hand When you don't know where you're bound C G C G C G A D Tell me about the way it used to be Forever young and strong I'll tell you how it was with me Just another note in the song Sometimes I wonder How it is I feel so old And sometimes feeling troubled Becomes a part of me I'm told Something's missing now or so it seems What it is I don't know Remember what life used to be When we thought we'd never grow old And so my friend Pour me another beer Feeling sorry for myself Ain't life a bitch When you're down and out And you seem to lose control But don't let it get you down now Don't let it drive you away I'm sure it's just a phase I'm going through And I pray it won't always be this way Oh trouble I got trouble Oh trouble We got trouble Trouble Who ain't got trouble Copyright 1992,1995 Michael James McNulty

Leave Him Howling At The Moon 03:43
lyrics

Leave Him Howling At the Moon (Hannah's Song) Em G Am I used to think I needed friendship Or maybe just to fall in love To settle for some friendly partnership Or maybe all of the above G Am C And now you see the son you never had who doesn't even know about you And now you see the family that could be but exists without you Without you When I finally start to trust you I put my life into your hands And though for me there was just you You really didn't give a damn Chorus And I wonder if you notice How it is I really feel The jilted always feel the worst they say Now I hardly know you're real Chorus Now it's time to say goodbye boy You'll feel the pain someday soon Let sleeping dogs lie girl So tired from howling at the moon Leave him howling at the moon Leave him howling at the moon Copyright 1994,1995 Michael J. McNulty

We’ve Got It All There once was a time When I thought that I could make it on my own There once was a place That I thought was mine and mine alone I’d won it all Bet it all Lost it all Iíd done it all Felt it all Iíd had it all And when you say you might not love me anymore Well I get this feeling that Iím the one who should be on his knees begging on the floor I never realized I’m so deeply intertwined with you Between you and I We have sought the sky and carried through We’ve won it all Bet it all Lost it all We’ve done it all Felt it all We’ve got it all 2-14-96 And when you say you might not love me anymore Well I get this feeling that I’m the one who should be on his knees begging on the floor There once was a time When I thought that I could make it on my own But you and I We have sought the sky and weíve brought it home We’ve won it all Bet it all Lost it all We’ve done it all Felt it all We’ve got it all ©1996 Michael J.

Montana Standard Time D A G Get up in the morning Woodstove to relight Cold feet on the bare floor Look outside Sun is a rising Shelterbelt covered in ice Another winter day's coming on Montana standard time Pour yourself a cup of coffee Don't turn on the news A new day is coming And I hope it's dawning on you See the whitetails grazing Crystal steaming dawn Don't waste this moment It will soon be gone Like the deer it will soon be gone Wife is still sleeping kids are bundled up too Nothing is moving Except inside of you Look at the sunrise You're up to stay Love living in Montana on a cold winter's day Love living in Montana on a cold winter's day Copyright 1992,1995 Michael J. McNulty

Ponderosa Woman 9-17-90 I spent all my life wondering what to do Always thought I'd be alone till I met you Chorus You changed my life In ways I cannot explain Sweet Ponderosa Lady Bring the sunshine to the rain Never thought I'd ever change And live the way that I do Raising babies instead of cain staying home and loving you Chorus I know that life ain't always smooth and the road can be quite rough But growing old with you For me will always be enough Chorus C 1991 MICHAEL JAMES McNULTY
