Try and Open Your Mind lyrics
How do you know what you want to do?
I know a way that's tried and true
You don't have to if you don't think you want to
But you might want to, never know now do you?
CH
Try and open your mind
Don't be afraid of what you might find
Try and open your mind
Someday you'll meet someone who's not just like you
Maybe you'll learn a thing or two
You don't have to if you don't think you want to
But you might want to, never know now do you?
CH
BR
Open your mind, open your heart
That's where it all begins, but it's just a start
Opening up to things that might seem strange
Opens the world to all kinds of change, change
CH
You know the wars you fight will kill you
Open your mind and let the light through
You don't have to if you don't think you want to
But you might want to, never know now do you?

Rise and Shine

(Hawley/Wooten)
CH
Rise and shine
Just like the sun
The stars align
We are all one
Rise and shine
You see the same reflection when you stare into the skies
As you witness gazing back at you when I look into your eyes
In spite of all the differences between us you might find
Even if we've never met, our souls are intertwined
CH
If we could only see the beauty in each other
We are all connected as sisters and brothers
If our only remedy is war upon endless wars
Then we'll be headed towards the way of the dinosaurs
BR
Come together, awake from your sleep
Our connections run so deep

Water Made Wine lyrics
Mother Mary said, "The wedding's out of wine."
He replied, "It's not my time."
Six water pots made of stone
All of them dry as bone
CH
Water made wine was the first sign
He wants us to have a really good time
He wants us to have a really good time
Water made wine was the first sign
He filled them up twenty gallons apiece
Took them to the master of the feast
When he tried the water made wine
The master did not recognize the vine
CH
BR
Everyone puts out the choice wine first
And when the guests have drunk the cheaper
Jesus saved the best for last
And kept the good wine til later

Wrong Guy lyrics
Somebody must have done somebody wrong
He might have looked like me
Be sure to give the benefit of the doubt
Innocent until proven guilty
CH
You got the wrong guy
I won't tell you no lie
Can't you see
It wasn't me
You got the wrong guy
You might think i m out running round town
I've got to pay my dues
I'm just trying to bring good things to your life
Not heartache and blues
CH
BR
Wrong guy
Can't you see the light
Wrong, wrong guy
You know I'm right

Tecate on a Hot Day lyrics
(Hawley/Wooten)
The sun beats down
People are leaving
But you're still here
And I'm conceiving
CH
And it all starts with one cold Tecate
No inhibition on such a hot day
And then I'll ask you so you think you might stay?
Just you and me and a Tecate on a hot day
So just relax
Take off your sandles
The sun goes down
I'll light the candles

I Will Always Listen to You
You always say everything
Before I can get a word in
True, I don’t talk as much as you
I communicate more through what i do
chorus
I will always listen to you
I will always listen to you
Hearing what you say
I’ll speak to you in my own way
I will always listen to you
Talk to me, let it all come out
You need to release without a doubt
My unspoken words come through
I’ll tell you what I’m going to do
chorus

Waiting for the Snow
chorus
Waiting for the snow,
waiting for the snow
Where oh where will that snowstorm go?
Waiting for the snow,
waiting for the snow
Where it snows, there I go
I’m waiting for the snow
Lamping here in Hollywood
wondering where to go
Maybe up to Jackson,
but it’s snowing in Tahoe
The Weather Channel isn’t going to
help us make the call
We just want to be there when
the snow begins to fall
chorus
Trucking on up to Jackson Hole,
hoping that we’re right
Storm’s coming in late tomorrow night
Hike on up the Glory Bowl
early in the morn
You know it won’t be long before
we’re cruising through the corn
chorus
Now the snow is coming down
and swirling all around
Looks like pretty soon there’ll be
some powder on the ground
Cuttin’ tracks down Teton Pass
into Idaho
Lord I’ve got to thank you
for sending me some snow

WAR NO MORE
chorus
No more fighting
No more war
No more fighting
War no more
Walls are down
We’re more in trust than fear
Arms outstretched
Hearts open wide
Mouths are closed
to let you hear
You say you fight for peace
The fighting feeds fear
Arms outstretched
Hearts open wide
Mouths are closed
to let you hear

At the Farmers Market
chorus
Picking up good stuff
At the Farmers’ Market
Strawberries and broccoli
Apples and oranges right off the tree
Prices so low they’re gonna
cause a panic
And best of all it’s organic
chorus
Plump juicy ripe tomatoes
Put them in my bag I’m gonna
eat them up tomorrow
Big wet fluffy leafy greens
Nuzzle my face make me scream
And who’s that walking by
I’d say hello if I wasn’t so shy
It’s no wonder you’re a beauty
All the good things you’re putting in your body
bridge
And as the day is done
They pack up the food and
head back to the farm
Let’s give thanks for all the
farmers grow
We reap the fruit of the seeds
that they sow
