It Ain't a Thing (Trupp)

It ain't a problem til it's a problem 

It ain't a thing til it's a thing

Don't worry about tomorrow 

It'll be what it will be

It ain't a thing til it's a thing 

 

Let's take the boat out

to the middle of the bay

Just let the tide take us away

Don't look for trouble

there's plenty to be found

who needs that worry anyhow 

 

It ain't a problem til it's a problem 

It ain't a thing til it's a thing

Don't worry about tomorrow 

It'll be what it will be

It ain't a thing til it's a thing 

 

No point in wishin

we were fishin in the sun 

Let's go out dancing in the rain

Don't look for trouble

there's plenty to be found

who needs that worry anyhow

 

It ain't a problem til it's a problem 

It ain't a thing til it's a thing

Don't worry about tomorrow 

It'll be what it will be

It ain't a thing til it's a thing 

New Potato Stew (Della Fera/Redling/Trupp)

Yesterday it seemed like everything‘s going your way

Tomorrow you’ll be riding against the wind

And I’ve been down that road myself so many times

Like a rainy day in the life of Anne Boleyn

 

Amazing Grace put me in its place

I’m all in pieces and sinking down

Standing on a corner, in my hand me downs

Lord my soul is heavenly bound

 

Why it always comes to this I’m really not too sure

Sometimes I feel I’m ripping at the seams

But I don’t know my left from right and  I don’t know my right from wrong

Just to cast to stone at old Miss Magdalen

 

Amazing Grace put me in its place

I was not looking for what I found

Lighten up your sweet little jelly roll

What’s good for your body is good for your soul

 

Everyone’s a social critic and everyone’s a saint

And I found out the hard way don’t you know

But since that time I’ve changed my mind I’ve changed my self perspective

Keep an eye on which way the wind must blow

'Cause it I live to be 100 I would never forget

The lesson that I’ve learned and it’s so sincere

Keep your thoughts to yourself, keep yourself to your thoughts

Just tell the man what he wants to hear

 

Amazing Grace put me in its place

I’m all uplifted and so profound

Standing on a pillow not making a sound

Lord my soul is heavenly bound

Georgia Angel (Pritchett)

There you were in a vail of white

Wood ’n Steel singing to you

Don’t believe it love at first sight

But that day somehow I knew

I know it’s crazy but I have a feeling

I have a feeling you would be mine

I have a feeling this could be one love

I have a feeling we’ll be amazed

 

My sweet Georgia Angel

My sweet Georgia Angel

 

Somewhere in the back of my mind I would dream

That someday we would come together

Time goes by people change

Had to go down to Savannah and tell her

I know it’s crazy but I am believing

I am believing this will be fine

I am believing in one heart

I am believing forever and ever AMEN

 

My sweet Georgia Angel

My sweet Georgia Angel

My sweet low country girl

Georgia girl, Georgia Angel

Shine (Trupp)

You and your beautiful eyes

magic when you’re laughing

tragic when you cry

You and your beautiful soul

timeless like a diamond, never growing old

and that’s why you

 

Shine, shine, shine

Until the end of time

Shine, shine, shine

Until the end of time

 

Me, I’m wild and free

still you captured my heart most definitely

You, yes you and me

vibin' on life and love

sky and sun, the story of

our endless love is gonna

 

Shine, shine, shine

Until the end of time

Shine, shine, shine

Until the end of time

 

and that’s why you

Shine, shine, shine

Until the end of time

Shine, shine, shine

Until the end of time

Until the end of time

Until the end of time

The Whisper (Laux/Trupp)

I’ve walked up the mountain

fallen down the hill

wandered through the valley of will

Now I’m at the edge of

the dawning of my life

Nothing lasts longer than time

 

I can see the future now

There’s no need to show you how

Just believe it’s true

And you might see it, too

Let the raindrops flood your tears

Toss away your worldly fears

And when the moment’s right

You’ll turn into love and light

 

Walking through the mirror

Counting every star

Never thought I’d make it this far

Now I’m at the edge of

the dawning of my life

Nothing gets wasted like time

 

I can see the future now

There’s no need to show you how

Just believe it’s true

And you might see it, too

And when you stop and think of me

And all the things we know can be

Stranger than it seems

The whisper in my wildest dreams

 

You gotta fight back! 

Against a raging the storm

You gotta fight back! 

To keep your fires warm

You gotta fight back! 

Against a raging the storm

You gotta fight back! 

To keep your fires warm and burning, burning

 

There’s no pages left to turn

No more bridges left to burn

Can we break this spell

Only time will tell

And when you stop and think of me

And all the things we know can be

Stranger than it seems

The whisper in my wildest dreams

Hey Now Julia (Della Fera/Mondok/Trupp)

Hanging sweetly at the South Main Café

Found it north of France and east of LA

Took a red top Cab rolling east and west

Looking for this place where I was the best

Hey now Julia got to get to you

Thursday’s coming mama the weekends too

Hey now Julia well I’m riding on a whim

I’m getting worried girl I’m getting way too thin

 

Spent my nickels buying bargain rhymes

Dancin’ Cajun music drinking rose wine

Remembering February how I chilled to bone

Come along long way not to be alone

Hey Now Julia got to tell it right

Solitaire don’t cut it on a Friday night

Hey now Julia just what is your mind

Got to tell you truthful girl you’re one hard chick to find

 

Went looking for you at the bottom line

Spent my silver dollars drinking with your kind

Winds got chili, up came to dawn

Sundays here and my weekends gone

Hey now Julia well I’m feeling so cold

I guess you just ain’t my pot of God

Hey Now Julia can we kill the beast

Mama if we could it’d be one long long long good feast

Brave New World (Laux)

There's a storm on the horizon,

There's trouble on the way

You can almost feel the tension

Tightening every day

So tie down all your loose ends,

The dirty sky is proof

That the winds of change are coming,

Gonna blow off the roof

 

It's a brave new world

Brave new world

Brave new world

I'm a refugee from this catastrophe

 

Well the rain is falling sideways,

Caught in a hurricane,

And the crows are flying backwards,

Things will never be the same

bound to be some damage, 

Prob'ly lose some friends

Got to make a new beginning

From the wreckage of the end

 

It's a brave new world

Brave new world

Brave new world

I'm a refugee from this catastrophe

 

The waters are receding,

The storm has spent its rage

It's time to stop the bleeding,

And write a band new page

We can start with what's still standing,

And labor days and nights

I'm singing about the music

Exploring higher heights

 

It's a brave new world

Brave new world

Brave new world

It's our destiny

Weed (Trupp)

You’re like a little weed just growing in the green grass

You’re like a little weed just dancing in the summer rain

You’re like a little weed just growing in the green grass

You’re like a little weed just dancing in the summer rain

 

And you can’t hide, you can’t hide it

It just shine’s through

You can’t hide it, can’t hide the light inside of you

 

You’re like a little weed just growing in the green grass

You’re like a little weed just dancing in the summer rain

 

And you can’t hide, you can’t hide it

It just shine’s through

You can’t hide it, can’t hide the light inside of you

 

You’re like a little weed just growing in the green grass

You’re like a little weed just dancing in the summer rain

In the rain, in the rain, rain

Dancing in the summer rain

In the rain, in the rain, rain

Dancing in the summer rain

What's the Real (Pritchett/Trupp)

Not so perfect pictures

Beautiful and blurred

Each one tells a story

Without a single word

Anthems drenched in color

Wordlessly profound

Shadows fade as sunlight paints the ground

 

I see lightning 

Feel the thunder

I see stars beyond the clouds that make me wonder

What’s the real

Who’s to say

Everything is always anyway

 

Far away at midnight

Weeping willows sway

Colors bleed together

While moments fade to gray

Oceans bathed in moonlight

floating on the sand

Like dreams that only love can understand 

 

I see lightning 

Feel the thunder

I see stars beyond the clouds that make me wonder

What’s the real

Who’s to say

Everything is always anyway

Anyway, anyway

Is there anyway to really know our fate

Anyway, anyway

Are the clouds that form around us

warning of the thunder

Everything is always anyway

        

Summer comes like fire in the rain

Autumn falls like moths before a flame

Winter howls a ballad in the snow

Spring air charms as hearts begin to glow

 

I see lightning 

Feel the thunder

I see stars beyond the clouds that make me wonder

What’s the real

Who’s to say

Everything is always anyway

Anyway, anyway

Is there anyway to really know our fate

Anyway, anyway

Are the clouds that form around us

warning of the thunder    

Everything is always

Everything is always

Everything is always anyway

Duke of Awesome (Trupp)

I'll be Duke of Awesome you'll be Lady Lemonade

let's pretend we've got it made

We'll be fast and famous while we're running for our lives

This time, this wine, so fine

 

In our backyard castle we'll burn flowers green and gold

in a fire dragon bone

All happy ever after is how every story goes

This time, this wine, so fine

This time, this wine, so fine

 

Where do we go from here, where do we go

Where do we go from here

Under the sun, over the moon

 

I'll be Duke of Awesome you'll be Lady Lemonade

let's pretend we've got it made

We'll be fast and famous while we're running for our lives

This time, this wine, so fine

This time, this wine, so fine

This time, this wine, so fine

This time, this wine, so fine

Accidental Ecstasy (Laux/Mondok/Redling)

Spent last night in the pouring rain

Thinking about you and me

Burning bridges in the fall Burning bridges all night long

You’re a woman of delicacy

An accidental ecstasy

I’m a restless ship lady

Sailing restless seas

 

Well I’m burning bridges baby

My conscious makes me lie

Now I feel it’s time for us

It’s time to say goodbye

Time to say goodbye

 

You shake it, you fake it, you hate it, bake it

Still make love ‘til dawn

You went crazy on the instinct until you lost your magic wand

And this wizard found it long enough

Now he wished you gone

There are even days that you plan and chart

The last seven days they never had no start

Been Tuesday’s child you have three days you the left

Been Tuesday’s child you have three days to the right

 

So it looks like Friday and Saturday

When you find the spark

The other five days you can’t believe you spent out in the dark

Spent out in the dark
