Lyrics From Buick
Mama's Little Baby Loves Me
MPG3
You come into this world your daddy's girl
And your mama's little baby
Was a time I could see nothing left for me
Til you got me thinking maybe
Chorus
You came along when I was down to love's last dime
With a heart of gold and a chance to make it mine
There ain't no stoppin love when it's meant to be
Mama's little baby loves me
Ever since the dawn of time there's been a woman on man's mind
But sometimes she meant danger
Guess I'm livin' proof of what a woman's love can do
To a man in need of a saving
Chorus repeats twice
I said mama's little baby loves me
Mama's little baby loves me

Buick
MPG3
Rubber necks starin' at the long nose runner parked beside this old GMC
Bright light burnin' but the girl ain't a sayin'
Nothin' she don't want to say
You think that you've got trouble and you think that you been through it
But you ain't seen nothin' till your baby drives a buick
Chorus
My baby drives a buick
My baby drives a buick
You think that you've been through it
But you ain't seen nothin' till your baby drives a buick
Slow down sally there's a boulder in the alley and it's lookin' like a no u-turn
I'm scared to death lord I'm holdin' my breath, it looks like we're gonna get burned
I crossed my heart, I said a prayer, she said ain't nothin' to it
But you can never tell when your baby drives a buick
Chorus
You know I could of went steady with a girl in a chevy
I almost went back with a lady in a Cadillac
A Shirley in a pearly white bonneville
Ain't the way I go around gettin' my trills 'cause
Chorus

When You Run From Love
MPG3
Love up and beat a path to my back door
I could always walk away before
I thought I could get away untouched
But you think to much when you run from love
When you run from love
Chorus
When you run from love
The quickest way ain't fast enough and the
Trains and the planes will let you down
If you hide your eyes
You make a chain of pain and lies and you
Know that you're only losing ground
When you run from love
My heart never beat the beat of a losing kind
could always touch the flame and not feel the fire
Your heart ain't the place you want shelter from
When you run from love
When you run from love
Chorus repeats twice
When your runin' from love

The Walk
MPG3
Down our long dusty driveway
I didn't wan't to go
But I set with tears in my eyes wondering
Daddy took me by the hand
Looked out at the school bus and his little man and said,
"Don't worry boy it will be all right"
Chorus
Cause I took this walk your walking now
Boy, I've been in your shoes
You can't hold back the hands of time
It's just something you've got to do
So dry eyes I understand just what your going through
Cause I took this walk with my old man
Boy, I've been in your shoes
Down our long dusty driveway
I set my mind to go
I was eighteen and wild and free and wondering
Daddy took me by the hand
Look at the world and his grown man and said,
"Don't worry boy it will be all right"
Chorus
Down our long and dusty driveway
This time we both would go
He had old and gray
And his mind was wandering
Daddy took me by the hand
Said, "I know where were going and I understand
Don't worry boy it will be all right"
Chorus

48 Hours Till Monday
MPG3
It's friday night and I've been
Workin' all week long
After the rent all I have left
Is this old song
My baby's right beside me
We're gonna have a ball
Ain't gonna care about anything
Anything at all
Chorus
I've got 48 hours and 25 dollars
In change, til monday
Got on my skin tight jeans
And my shirt with the ketchup stains
I've got a hole in my pocket
And the world by the tail
And everything is going my way
I've got 48 hours and 25 dollars in change
We'll get a double dip down
At the Tasty Freeze
Listen to the gossip
Laugh till we can't breath
We'll join the cavalcade of
Down home on parade
Here in our town U.S.A
We really got it made
Chorus
I've got a hole in my pocket
And the world by the tail
And everything is going my way
I've got 48 hours and 25 dollars in change
I've got 48 hours and 25 dollars in change
I've got 48 hours and 25 dollars in change
I've got 48 hours and 25 dollars in change

Superman's Daughter
MPG3
She was the most unusual girl I'd met
She stole my heart and she took my breath
She had these certain ways I did not understand
And when I mode my move to execute my plan
She was leading me like a lamb to a slaughter
You don't mess around with superman's daughter
Chorus
Superman's daughter got looks that kill
She got x-ray eyes - she got a heart of steel
When she fell in love I never woulda caught her
If I'd only known she was superman's daughter
She is soft to touch - she is hard to hold
She is one minute hot she is one minute cold
But it's too late, Clark, for me to turn back now
She's got me heart over mind and I'm wondering how
She could do anything shy of walkin' on water
The girl must be superman's daughter
Chorus repeats twice

One Less Pony
MPG3
You can wind up empty handed at the altar all alone
Or you can rob a bank in San Antone
She just rambled on a drinking staring at her ring
She look at me and said "I just came here to ease the pain"
Chorus
'Cause there'll be one less pony in this one horse town
When my spurs hit the ground I'm gonna just ride on out
There'll be one less pony in this one horse town
I've been lassoed by loneliness branded by the blues
I'm gonna exit west put on my hat and cruise
She was talking crazy but her heart was making sense
I moved a little closer and kindly listened in
The hurt was runnin' deeper then the scars would ever show
She looked at me and asked "when love leaves where dose it go"
Chorus
I've been lassoed by loneliness branded by the blues
I'm gonna exit west put on my hat and cruise
Chorus
I'm gonna exit west put my hat on and cruise

Still Water
MPG3
(Duet With Donna Mc Elroy)
Lord, I talk too much and say the wrong things
Time and time again
Still when times get rough yours is the voice
That says I can come home again
Chorus
Beside the still water
This world can't touch me
You're my shield - You're my true friend indeed
You're the still water where I find my peace
When I feel for from you all I need do
Is sit and whisper your name
You're the one place I know where I can go
And find love - that never will change
Chorus
When I feel I can't go on
I can feel you hand gently lead me home
Yes you are
Your the still water
Water
Where I find my peace

Stealin' Home
MPG3
No I'm not just crazy I've lost more than my mind
Since I looked into your blue eyes
I'm swingin' for the bleachers with my heart
Thinking this time that I might win looking at you
Chorus
Stealin' home - stealin' home
I'm rounding third and I'm heading on in
Look at me taking chances again
Maybe this time I'll beat out the throw stealing home
Now I'm going back on a promise to my heart
First time that I met you
I swore never fall in love again
Now where she stops nobody knows - I'm going round again
Chorus
Stealin' home - stealin' home
Stealin' home - stealin' home
Chorus
Stealin' home - stealin' home
Stealin'- stealin' home - stealin' home
Stealin'- stealin' home - stealin' home
Stealin' home

Thunder Bay
MPG3
I never thought that anyone could do me like you do me
I never thought that love would get in the way
But there was magic in the air and there were stars out on the water
On a moonlit night in thunder bay
Chorus
Was it the lightning on the water
Was it the thunder from the bay
When the night goes down they are hard to tell apart
Just like howling at the moon and barking at the dark
Just like howling at the moon and barking at the dark
The eyes of disillusion keep burning holes right through me
Down in watertown you'll see it all
A willing hand, a second glance at evil in a red dress
I threw in my hand and bet it all
Chorus
I could've walked away
I should've been afraid
I never would've strayed
But I did - yes I did - in thunder bay
Chorus
