ARE YOU LONESOME, OR JUST ALONE? (Nanci’s Song)Words by Bob RiegnerFrom Austin to Dublin From Nashville to San Antoine’ As you wander and spin your songs Are you lonesome, or just alone? As you weave your magic We claim it as our own But it makes us wonder Are you lonesome, sweet Nanci, or just alone? Voice of an angel, strength of steel Writing songs that strike us close to home. But we hear the sadness hiding in each song Are you lonesome Nanci, or just alone? (Bridge) Are you lonesome, or just alone? Is it wanderlust or loneliness that makes you roam? Or are you waiting for someone to ‘stand you still’ ‘And always will’ to take you home? As you bring much joy and meaning To so many you’ll never know May your friends and family cherish you, So don’t be lonesome, because you’re not alone. NANCI'S SONGBy Carolyn HesterWhen I look at you I see myself as I was then I was fearless and I was thirsting For the adventure Moving carefully between songs Learning what works and what went wrong I was loving the pleasure of the crowd Mama and mt Daddy were very proud So just before your wings unfurl For your journey around the world I'd like to place a blessing on you And mention just a thing or two Chorus: Don't forget where you come from Don't forget where you have been Just remember you're a country girl And someone will always take you in Don't forget the candles burn All night long for your return Just remember you're a country girl And someone will always take you in You called me your Angel in the Wasteland Well, it was really you You were just seeing yourself Reflected here in mt eye The only thing that will get to you Is the times your songs are slow comin' through to you But you'll never get over people payin' their money To sit down and listen to a Texas honey So I guess we're on this mission together So come on, let's get out our Indian feathers Go ahead and put them on Let's get folks to singing this little song (Repeat Chorus) NANCIBy Toad The Wet SprocketI can't believe you You bend your words like Uri Geller's spoons Not quite safe here When every judgement Seems to smack of doom Are you OK? I'm just fine You take Nanci For me Loretta's fine A legal precedent Could set us straight But no one's brought up suit And I'm assuming That if they did The point would still be moot And are you just joking? No I'm just fine You take Nanci For me Loretta's fine No I've changed my mind I'll take Nanci For you Loretta's fine And still we walk without quite seeing things And I'll admit there's not that much to see And I will follow through And expect that you will follow suit And I can't believe you You bend your words like Uri Geller's spoons Not quite safe here When every judgement Seems to smack of doom And Are you OK? I'm just fine You take Nanci For me Loretta's fine No I've changed my mind I'll take Nanci For you Loretta's fine Loretta's fine (3x) FOR NANCIWords by Chris Lewis
Lights illuminate deserted streets like a memory
I wake up early mornin' remembering your song
