Deana Carter - Angels Working Overtime


She was born at a rest stop on the Kansas state line
In the back of a Dodge in the summer time
Her momma named her Indiana like their license plate
And with the hum of the tires on the interstate
She was cryin'

They left her at a Denny's up in Colorado
In a blanket with her name written on a note
They said, "Forgive us Lord for not takin' her
But this child has a better chance of makin' it
In someone else's arms"

And it's a crazy thing
Fate has perfect wings
All the way down the line
Angels working overtime
(Angels working overtime)

She was raised in a place called Cheyenne Wells
But she never fit in and everyone could tell
That she didn't belong in some prairie town
And when she turned eighteen she bought a ticket out
On a greyhound

They stopped a few minutes out of Santa Fe
She got out for a smoke and they drove away
She hitched a ride with a boy right out of school
He said "I'm headed out west"
And she said "Me too, if that's alright"

And it's a crazy thing
Fate has perfect wings
All the way down the line
Angels working overtime
(Angels working overtime)

It took a couple hundred miles till they fell in love
They knew forever was the only thing good enough
And in a moment of passion in a motel room
They held on tight and their aim was true
Now they're countin' down the days
And dreamin' all night
In an apartment in L.A.

It's a crazy thing
Fate has perfect wings
All the way down the line
Angels working overtime
(Angels working overtime)

She was born at a rest stop on the Kansas state line

Paula Abdul - Promise Of A New Day


Eagle's calling and he's calling your name
Tides are turning, bringing winds of change
Why do I feel this way?
The promise of a new day
The promise, promise of a new day

As through time, the earth moves under my feet
One step closer to make love complete
What has the final say?
The promise of a new day
The promise, promise of a new day (x3)
The promise

And so time over time
What will change the world?
No one knows (no one knows)
So the only promise is a day to live, to give
And share with one another

See the wisdom from mistakes in our past
Hear the younger generation ask
Why do I feel this way?
The promise of a new day
The promise, promise of a new day (x6)
We can make it, we can make it better, baby

So time over time
What will change the world?
No one knows (no one knows)
So the only promise is a day to live, to give
And share with one another

Eagle's calling and he's calling your name
Tides are turning, bringing winds of change
Why do I feel this way?
The promise of a new day
The promise, promise of a new day

As through time, the earth moves under my feet
One step closer to make love complete
What has the final say?
The promise of a new day
The promise, promise of a new day (x4)

See the wisdom from mistakes in our past

What has the final say?

RE: don't forget to turn the clocks ahead an hour this weekend

Yeah, first really nice weekend we get and we lose an hour of it.

RE: What really is a disability?

This is something that really irks me.

My mother has been legally blind in her left eye since she was 2. When I was growing up, she applied everywhere in town for a job and no one would hire her. Everyone said "Go get disability." When she did try to get disability, they said "You can still see, go get a job." We lived on $201/mo from welfare and food stamps.

Today, my cousin gets disability for one of her twin boys cause he was born with webbed toes. Where's the WTF?! emote? Another cousin gets disability for being stupid. Seriously. She purposely failed a test and said she was illiterate (which she's not, she got to 10th grade before she got knocked up and dropped out).

RE: Happy Birthday Tamarin............

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

RE: Little Boys In Divorce

We really didn't have any male role models at all when I was growing up. We had my uncle, but he was an alcoholic. The boys were just like your typical boy, and most of us girls were tomboys too, lol!

OT, but this topic reminds me of a story about my Uncle Jim. Him and his wife (Shirley) got into an arguement. Well, Shirley, decided that she would leave Uncle Jim to "teach him a lesson". A week later, she hadn't heard from him and went back to the house to see if he was ok. When she walked in, the house was perfectly clean. Uncle Jim was at the table working on a model ship and he told her "Be quiet, I have a cake in the oven."

RE: Your Favorite Recent Purchase

More important is being healthy. As long as you are eating good and exercising, your weight will fall into place.

RE: Your Favorite Recent Purchase

Definitely, but it is necessary occassionally to change out the wardrobe. I wore my 16s as long as I could until I just couldn't keep them up even with a belt, lol. I'll wear these as long as I can, but I have to admit though, I'm looking forward to yard sale season.

RE: how you define yourself?

RE: Your Favorite Recent Purchase

Doesn't it feel great to have to buy smaller clothes? I just bought size 10 pants not too long ago, and now they're getting too big.

RE: HAS ANYBODY EVER HAD THE COURAGE TO TELL THEIR BOSS / PARTNER / FAMILY / FREIND / CLUB / CLIENT TO..

I work for 4 real estate agents who are exactly like that. I feel your pain.

RE: how you define yourself?

I am weird.

RE: Out of these choices, which do you believe to be the most significant problem in the world?

politicians

RE: Which movie SCARED you the most?

I've actually never found a movie that's scared me. Still searching for one.

RE: Which state?

I think that title goes to West Virginia. Heck, half the rest of the country still doesn't know we're a state.

RE: Why peoples are not intrested to meet someone abroad?

exactly what she said.

RE: If you would get married again..

Well, I was a wedding planner/caterer for 8 years, so I'm kinda weddinged-out. Probably, something small. None of my family would attend anyway unless there was free food.

RE: Which state?

California - they're gonna fall into the ocean eventually anyways.

RE: Just A Thought

Depends on when the party would be. Wearing glasses now until my contacts come in, but the rest of me is the same. Although, if you get close to me, you can see my hair is different shades of brown/dark blonde (my profile pic looks like one colour).

RE: In the moment

I'd like a years paid vacation so I could travel the world.

RE: Who here has never been married?

Same, though I was 14, he was 56, and technically he offered my mom $10,000 for me.

RE: WHY INDIANS ARE EASY TO IDENTIFY

Well, according to that list I'm half Indian.

RE: What Emoticon Are You 2?

I can't choose one.

RE: would you drop your best friend for a bf/gf if they asked?

Absolutely not.
There's a song that says "If you don't like them, you won't like me." My friends are my friends for a reason.
