Oh Valvoline

**"The Tavern King of Barnstaple"** *(To the Tune of "The Gambler" by Kenny Rogers)* **[Verse 1]** On a rainy night in Barnstaple town, Mike Jordan sat with a worried frown. The Tavern was quiet, the stakes were high, Danny McGee walked in, with a glint in his eye. **[Chorus]** You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away, know when to run. Mike bet it all, on a pair of queens, But Danny’s full house crushed his dreams. **[Verse 2]** Nicola cried as the cards were shown, The Tavern was lost, and Mike was alone. Danny just smiled, with Del Boy by his side, "Now you work for me," he said with pride. **[Chorus]** You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away, know when to run. Mike bet it all, on a pair of queens, But Danny’s full house crushed his dreams. **[Verse 3]** Mike moved in with Sean, in a small flat above, They bonded over whiskey and stories of love. Del Boy would visit, wagging his tail, But Mike couldn’t shake the sting of his fail. **[Chorus]** You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away, know when to run. Mike bet it all, on a pair of queens, But Danny’s full house crushed his dreams. **[Bridge]** Now Mike and Sean, they’re the best of mates, Laughing at life and their twisted fates. Nicola moved on, but Mike found a friend, And the Tavern’s old spirit will never end. **[Verse 4]** Danny runs the pub, with Del Boy in tow, But Mike’s found peace, in the life he knows. He’ll tell you the story, with a wink and a grin, "Don’t bet your Tavern, unless you’re sure you’ll win." **[Chorus]** You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, Know when to walk away, know when to run. Mike bet it all, on a pair of queens, But Danny’s full house crushed his dreams. **[Outro]** So here’s to Mike, the Tavern’s old king, Who lost it all but found a new thing. With Sean by his side, and a laugh in his heart, Mike’s story lives on, in Barnstaple’s heart. *(Fade out with a harmonica solo and the sound of a shuffling deck of cards.)* �🍻

**"Sam's Winning Hand"** *(A Country-Poker Anthem)* **[Verse 1]** Bailey sat down at the table, feelin' mighty fine, Thought he'd take Sam's money, one hand at a time. But Sam just tipped his hat, with a sly little grin, Said, "Bailey, my friend, you ain't ready to win." **[Chorus]** 'Cause Sam's got the cards, and Sam's got the plan, When he's holdin' a deuce, it looks like a grand. He bluffs with a smile, leaves Bailey in tears, By the end of the night, Sam's cleaned out his years. **[Verse 2]** Bailey thought he had it, with a pair of kings, But Sam raised the pot, and he bet everything. Bailey folded his hand, said, "I can't take the heat," Sam flipped over nothing, and Bailey faced defeat. **[Chorus]** 'Cause Sam's got the cards, and Sam's got the plan, When he's holdin' a deuce, it looks like a grand. He bluffs with a smile, leaves Bailey in tears, By the end of the night, Sam's cleaned out his years. **[Bridge]** Bailey left the table, not a dollar to his name, Had to borrow from Sam, and it was a cryin' shame. He worked nine to five, Dolly Parton style, But Sam took his paycheck, with that same old smile. **[Verse 3]** Now Bailey's at the factory, punchin' that clock, Dreamin' of the day he can beat Sam in a block. But Sam's still playin', winnin' night and day, While Bailey's just tryin' to keep the bills at bay. **[Chorus]** 'Cause Sam's got the cards, and Sam's got the plan, When he's holdin' a deuce, it looks like a grand. He bluffs with a smile, leaves Bailey in tears, By the end of the night, Sam's cleaned out his years. **[Outro]** So here's to you, Sam, the king of the game, Bailey's just a footnote in your hall of fame. From the poker table to the nine-to-five grind, Sam's the winner, and Bailey's left behind. *(Fade out with a twangy guitar and a harmonica solo.)* 🎸

verse 1 out where the fields roll for miles and miles there’s a rusted old gate and a crooked fence line where the stories run deep like the roots in the clay and the wind still whispers what the old folks say verse 2 there’s a porch with a swing that’s seen better days where granddaddy sat watchin’ sunsets fade he said life’s just a road, some smooth, some rough but you keep on drivin’ when the goin’ gets tough chorus where the gravel meets the sky where the songs and the prayers never die where the hands are worn, but the hearts stay strong it’s where i belong, where i come from where the gravel meets the sky verse 3 every scar on this land tells a story of pride from the crops that we lost to the tears we cried but we carry it all like a flag in the wind standin’ tall through the storms, just like we’ve always been chorus where the gravel meets the sky where the songs and the prayers never die where the hands are worn, but the hearts stay strong it’s where i belong, where i come from where the gravel meets the sky bridge you can pave these roads, you can tear down the signs but you can’t steal the soul of these simple times final chorus where the gravel meets the sky where the songs and the prayers never die where the hands are worn, but the hearts stay strong it’s where i belong, where i come from where the gravel meets the sky outro where the gravel meets the sky…

🌊 Storm’s Gonna Pass 🌞 (A Folk Song for Queensland as Cyclone Alfred Approaches) Verse 1: The wind starts a-howlin’, the tide’s runnin’ high, Clouds rollin’ heavy across the night sky. But we’ve known the thunder, we’ve danced in the rain, Queensland stands tall, we’ll do it again. Pre-Chorus: So gather close, don’t be afraid, We’ve walked through storms, we won’t be swayed. Chorus: Storm’s gonna pass, winds gonna die, Golden sun’s gonna break that sky. We’ll hold our ground, we won’t back down, Queensland’s heart won’t be blown around. Verse 2: Lanterns are flickerin’, hands holding tight, Neighbors and strangers stand side by side. The waters may rise, but love runs deep, We hold on to hope, that’s ours to keep. Pre-Chorus: So gather close, don’t be afraid, We’ve walked through storms, we won’t be swayed. Chorus: Storm’s gonna pass, winds gonna die, Golden sun’s gonna break that sky. We’ll hold our ground, we won’t back down, Queensland’s heart won’t be blown around. Bridge: Raindrops fall, but so do tears, Not of sorrow, but strength through years. We've seen the floods, we’ve felt the waves, And every time, we rise from the shadows. Final Chorus: Storm’s gonna pass, winds gonna die, Golden sun’s gonna paint the sky. We’ll stand as one, no fear, no doubt, Queensland’s fire won’t be put out. Outro: So hold on tight, just close your eyes, When the winds are gone, we’ll see blue skies.

Oh jolene , cover me in Valvoline, if only Diddy knew what Valvoline could do

HOLU DOLU (Verse 1) I grew up in a small town, Where laughter filled the air, Chasing dreams ‘neath the big oak tree, With my buddies, without a care. My aunt would call me Holu Dolu, Her smile, it lit up the day, Said I was her little treasure, In her heart, I’d always stay. (Chorus) Holu Dolu, we’re here for you, Crafting dreams with fabric and glue, From ages two to fourteen, it’s true, Quality’s our promise, we’ll see you through. Every stitch, every thread, our love shines through, Holu Dolu, we built this for you. (Verse 2) I remember summer sunsets, Running barefoot, feeling free, The smell of fresh-cut grass, oh, Brings back sweet memories. We sat ’round the campfire, With stories tall as the sky, Now I’m crafting for the future, For every girl and every guy. (Chorus) Holu Dolu, we’re here for you, Crafting dreams with fabric and glue, From ages two to fourteen, it’s true, Quality’s our promise, we’ll see you through. Every stitch, every thread, our love shines through, Holu Dolu, we built this for you. (Bridge) Every design, it speaks your name, Soft and warm, like a childhood game. Colors bright like the stars at night, We’re stitching memories, holding you tight. (Verse 3) So here’s to the kids with shining eyes, With t-shirts and toys that light up the skies, From jump ropes to jeans, we’ve got it all right, With Holu Dolu, your future’s so bright. When you wear our clothes, know we care, With every little heartbeat, our love is there. (Chorus) Holu Dolu, we’re here for you, Crafting dreams with fabric and glue, From ages two to fourteen, it’s true, Quality’s our promise, we’ll see you through. Every stitch, every thread, our love shines through, Holu Dolu, we built this for you. (Outro) So come on, little dreamers, Let’s take this ride together, With Holu Dolu, you’ll always know, We’re here, we care, forever and ever.

The sun pears out from morning grey Chasing the shadows of yesterday The dirt stretches out far ahead Where the past can’t follow, it’s whispers dead Here’s to new beginnings, a brand new song Write from the heart, and you’ll never be wrong Step by step, the future’s near So we can leave behind what gave us tears

Crazy are the things on how life came to be Your my world, everything that could be You"re the only girl in my life meant to be And i love you, wit all my heart and soul till i die. baby girl you"re the light in my life. And i kno it that one day soon for sure you"re gonna be that special ones bride Just hold on tight, lord"s knows I pray every night for you to have smooth ride in life My baby girl my closest friend, daddy loves you Until the day i die, ill try to give you the world. There are days that I can walk around like I"m alright, And I pretend to wear a smile on my face, And I could keep the pain from comin" out of my eyes, But sometimes, sometimes, Sometimes I cry, Cry, Sometimes I cry, When I can"t do nothing else. Whenever I"m broken Honey, you heal me When I"m in the dark You are light When I get lost You know right where to find me When I have my doubts You make me believe Can"t imagine what this life would be, without you in my life there wont be no smile on my face. Every little thing we do is just so special to me. I see the pain and hurt in your eyes For all the times I let you down but I love you even more for the nights When I was waging war on my self You were trying to stop the fight I love you baby. Always and foreva you kno what im sayin? Yea, cause i aint neva lettin go, I just wanted to let you know that

(Verse 1) Dust in the air and a sting on my skin, Fell off my saddle, but I’m ready to begin. Scraped up and bruised, but I’m still in the fight, Every tumble’s a lesson under that wide open light. (Pre-Chorus) When the world knocks you down, You get up off the ground— Every fall fuels my fire, Stronger with each trial. (Chorus) Bucked off but not broken, I’ll ride again, Dust on my boots and a heart that won’t give in. Every bruise is a badge of the grit I own, I’m back on that horse, ready to be shown. (Verse 2) Out on the trail where the wild winds blow, Every fall’s a reminder of how much I grow. The ride’s tough, but my spirit’s tougher still, I learn from every stumble, and I climb every hill. (Pre-Chorus) A setback’s just a pause in the song, I’ll be back on my horse before long— Rising up, never looking back, Keeping true on this well-worn track. (Chorus) Bucked off but not broken, I’ll ride again, Dust on my boots and a heart that won’t give in. Every bruise is a badge of the grit I own, I’m back on that horse, ready to be shown. (Bridge) Sometimes the ride gets rough, And life can sure be tough— But every fall teaches me, To ride with wild, fearless glee. There’s strength in every scar, In every journey near and far, So I’ll keep on riding, come what may, With my eyes on the dawn of a brand new day. (Chorus) Bucked off but not broken, I’ll ride again, Dust on my boots and a heart that won’t give in. Every bruise is a badge of the grit I own, I’m back on that horse, and this road is my home. (Outro) So here’s to the rides that test our will, To the lessons learned on every hill. No matter how many times I fall, I’ll rise again and give it my all.

Ruggles Ohio, Middle of nowhere with nothing but cornfields everywhere. The only thing you see outside of towns. Combine tractors, soybeans and hay, and horse drawn buggies. (horse power) Their horses drop loads of apples on the roads. (huge turds) The olivesburg general store serves quality ice cream and sandwiches. Right down the road on 96: Flip "em around and it"s 69. Cow dung on your boots and I might be wrong. But like Three Eleven: I stay strong all along. I learned from the amish, the farmers, the Mansfield and Ashland Ohio brew throughs. Yeah you can buy beer in a drive through. That"s right : you can buy beer in a drive through. buying beer in a drive through. Did you listen to the song and did ya hear? You can go to: A drive through to buy beer. (genius idea) Seems safe to me, but that"s the middle of Ohio, middle of nowhere, the armpit of America. (O-H-I-O, O-H-I-O) Smoke the flower and weed nuggles, there"s place in Ohio named Ruggles. Corn Rows. Combines and very limited afros. So many Amish and Mennonite Clowns. Cornhole game. Cornhole toss. West Virginia and Randy Moss. (greatest receiver of all time) Paint a picture like my man bob ross. Hang on Sloopy. Sloopy Hang on. (O-H-I-O, O-H-I-O) From sane to insanity, next up on Hannity. What about Gutfeld or Watters World, maybe some O"Rielly Factor. Rachel Maddow is an idiot with a dumb looking hairdo. That"s right, a dudes hairdo. (bull dyke only talks about the 3rd Reich) Uncle Google got nothing to do with Microsoft Bing but they do the same thing. Bill Gates, Hates America. Libs do too. Where"s Waldo or Where"s Snowden? Nevermind, We got off track so back to the amish. (horse apples) They make solid wood furniture and quality quilts. Mattress Mack (shout out Houston) Ashland, Olivesburg, Adario, and Savannah, (olde Keyes is out of business; had a pizza burger with the cheese and pepperoni inside the meat) Mansfield Corn Rows (ghetto) Farmlands. (stank) Ohio. (sloopy hang on) Welcome to the armpit of America. (drive through beer and horse apples, too)

lyrics title: Trusting the Journey lyrics content: [Verse] [Country] In the valley where shadows creep, When dreams feel far and hopes run deep, We cling to faith, through every trial, God"s guiding hand, with love’s sweet smile. [Chorus] [Country] No matter the storm, what lies ahead, His plan unfolds, we"re never misled, For those who love Him, there"s light in the night, Working all for good, holding us tight.
