Doors


words and music by Cody Hewitt

You've got your ways
 and I've got mine
Read between the finer lines
We soak in day
 and drive all night
Drunk on you and drunk on wine
  it's just a race to beat the time
  an underlining why
  and I don't want to fight
  
Hold your head
 and hold it high
Hold on to me before we die
stay this way
 for all our lives
Drunk on you and drunk on lies
  it's just a race to beat the time
  an underlining why
  and I don't want to fight
  
  Who's been the one with their hand on the door singin'
 hold it tight
  and then just let it go

Jack It Up


by Cody Hewitt, Lewis (Scotty) Morris and Dain Goertzen

 Hanging out in my truck
middle finger up 'cause I don't give a f*ck
 four-wheelin', got mud on my tires
gotta make it to the woods 'fore my tags expire
 Baby lock it in, goin' up a hill
drivin' four-wheel will give you a thrill
 I bet you like my lift 
why don't you reach on over and give it a shift
Four-wheelin', watchin' the mud fly
best thing to do as time goes by
is see the look in your eyes
and you're sayin' "I'm gonna Jack It Up"
put on my blue jeans, drinkin' that Jim Beam
makin' the girls scream, "I'm gonna Jack It Up"
fabricate me a brushguard out in the truck barn
"I'm gonna Jack It Up"
get you on the tailgate, girl you know I can't wait
no need to hesitate
"I'm gonna Jack It Up"
pretty little thing, lookin' at her all day
makes me wanta sing
"I'm gonna Jack It Up"

 Ain't no fishin' in the dark
if you want to go fishin' there's a creek down by the park
 Yeah, I ain't messin' around 
when I'm revin' my engine and you hear that sound
 hard sippin', drinking on the whiskey
don't blink or you might miss me
 Yeah, we're partyin' all night
I like the woods 'cause I don't get in a bar fight
Four-wheelin', watchin' the mud fly
best thing to do as time goes by
is see the look in your eyes
and you're sayin' "I'm gonna Jack It Up"
put on my blue jeans, drinkin' that Jim Beam
makin' the girls scream, "I'm gonna Jack It Up"
fabricate me a brushguard out in the truck barn
"I'm gonna Jack It Up"
get you in the tailgate, girl you know I can't wait
no need to hesitate
"I'm gonna Jack It Up"
pretty little thing, lookin' at her all day
makes me wanta sing
"I'm gonna Jack It Up"

Drunk Girl
(Note On The Door)


words and music by Cody Hewitt

You look dizzy seemed like you bumped your head
and I don't want to move from this sun I'm in
Drunk in the morning as you find your way to bed
 and here we are, both lying
But you, you were out in the yard
an' I's on the phone, calling your Mom
saying come pick you up and carry you home
'cause my arms are sore and my back broke
  broke long ago
  oh - ooh, whooooaaa, she's throwing-up in the yard
sinking, 'cause I know where she's been
maybe if she's lucky she can go and stay with him

Changed my pillows 'cause they all smell like your hair
throw your shit in the yard, it's the mood that I'm in
Kinda nervous but I don't think that you care
  and here we are both lying
But you, you couldn't tell the truth
I held up this home, I want you to know
that I didn't want to break-up, but you did me wrong
there's a note on the door, so now you can go
  and now you can go
  oh - ooh, whooooaaa, she's throwing-up in the yard
I'm sinking, 'cause I know where she's been
maybe if she's lucky she can go and stay with him

It's Only Love

Don't know whether to laugh or cry
Poetry made with a heart-felt sigh
You're afraid you might actually die
 :Don't worry! - it's only Love

Gripped by affection of the puppy kind
Too tongue-tied to speak your mind
Say 'goodbye' to your time and your pride
 :Jump in! - it's only Love

It all seems more than you can take
Your whole soul will be completely shaken
Oh yes, there can be no mistakin'
 :Diagnosis! - it's only Love

If you Trust because it's what you need
There's not going to be a guarantee
Your faerie-tale will be decreed
 :Let's Believe! - it's only Love

Just this way for the rich or poor
Yes, it's always true that you're wanting more
It's all in the way that you're keeping score
 :Take a chance! - it's only Love

A full understanding is beyond belief
Too bright, too big - no room for grief
Forever treasured even though it's brief
 :Remember! - it's only Love

It's horribly simple, it's really complex
Caring, desire and a deep respect
Yes, that there, is the proper mix
 :'Cause, after all - it's only Love

When you're not lessened when their away
Making love is childlike, laughing play
Being together makes you gently happy
 :Hold on - that's really Love

It goes beyond appreciation
a simple life-giving validation
a constantly surprising realization
 :"It really must be Love!"
When you're not diminished when they're away
And making love is daily frolicking play
A sharing you can really never, ever repay
 :So, I'll live life - for only Love

My OK Girlfriend





words: Brian McCabe

music: Brian McCabe , Cody Hewitt

 
easy to talk to, easy to kiss
takes only seconds from zero to bliss
we'll take our time though there's never enough
an explosive mixture of tender and tough
she laughs, she hums, she really screams
she's a real life hormonal teenage dream
tell her that I want her every day
she looks at me tenderly and says      -    "OK"

want no other to handle my throttle
it's her or nothing is my personal motto
such firm control with that tender care
a heavy rush a thrilling scare
thinking part is off  - heart in full roar
when I push her all the way to the floor
when I tell her I'll drive her everyway
she holds me closer then says      -      "OK"

her eyes are dazzle color, always on stun
I love her operation of the grease gun
she's the one that knows what's under my hood
the nuances are all  understood
she's perfectly tuned, she's far beyond spec
and with the proper 'mount of disrespect
that I know will be royally repaid
she kisses me deep and laughs      -     "OK"

fits the displacement  really does the trick
jacks me up when we give each other lip
her freely given and warm simple gifts
she nudges my toggles and flips all my switches
comes with no manual, no,  no guarantee
pushing the limit daring a ticket
and when she rumbles with her child-like glee
making me laugh out loud   -   calls to the boy in me

revs-up my engine with her high octane
she straightens my axle, snugs my gear train
 it's how she handles and in how she steers
having mixed feelings as she drifts through my gears
at these close tolerances and high gloss polishes
the careful maneuvering as we push to the edge
keeping in mind the important thing at these high revs is
Timing, timing, timing,Timing

lube job,thrust bearings, tight belts and strong chains
that reciprocal motion makes us insane
she likes to get wet and shine up my chrome
with my mind and motor full blown
she knows with her wonderful superior mind
it's not the destination it's all in the ride
when I suggest we go off to play
she takes my hand and says       -      "OK"

Best Part Of The Day

remixed/reposted May 10, 2016

The best part of the day
when it's clear and crisp and new
I see on your face
the day's promises fulfilled
The best part of the day
has to be right here and now
tasting everything
the new day will allow

The best part of the day
with the tang of honest sweat
moving together
in a sacred dance complex
The best part of the day
has to be right here and now
as we learn to fly
and we teach each other how

The best part of the day
as the sun is fading west
we name the changing colors
claim our well-earned rest
The best part of the day
has to be right here and now
when you agree to stay
the best part of the night

I Don't Love You


music by Cody Hewitt words Brian McCabe

I don't love you, I do not love you, 
Yes - this is profound fascination
I don't love you, I do not love you, 
Yes  - unrepentant thrill when we touch

I don't love you, I do not love you, 
Yes - your vital presence brings me bliss
I don't love you, I do not love you, 
Yes - by you I've been given Grace

Why would I want to love you, 
     to leave this state of Yes
much rather be fascinated, 
     thrilled, blissed and blessed

Please give me this fascination
these thrills, this bliss
give us a kiss

Better Days


words and music by Cody Hewitt

getting back in line, 
this time,
have another day with a life of 
rather understandable paint-made insides.

and you were made to break, 
and you were made too many, 
better days better days, 
better off dead
two can make the same mistakes,
you'll tell me when you're ready, 
better days better days, 
i'm along side , yeah,

and you pull me through


i'd get away just fine, 
this time,
i can tell it's something individual, 
break through walls and open up your fireside,

and you were made to break, 
and you were made too many, 
better days better days, 
better off dead 
two can make the same mistakes,
you'll tell me when you're ready, 
better days better days, 
i'm along side , yeah

Freedom (Is Not Free)


music by Cody Hewitt
words by Brian McCabe
Taking our freedom, comfort is tossed
Seeking wonder, pay the cost
    if lost

Caution to the wind, open my heart
keep faith again, ready to start
    my part
 
T'hell with the chains, we'll test our stride
join in the dances, long denied
    inside

 Marbles in the air, all bets are off
 going Anywhere, are we tough  enough
 Get up and dance, especially if they say you can't
 Be bold not hesitant
 
Caution to the wind, open my heart
keep faith again, ready to start
    my part

Taking my freedom, safety is lost
finding Wonder
           pay the cost

Travelin' Through




music Cody Hewitt, words by Pain Royale, sung by Dain Goertzen

I slowly sip my coffee, kiss a cigarette
the tune is working but the words aren't right yet
(it's time to leave)
just travelin' through
Moving forward always tempting fate
any fulfillment comes far too late
for all of those who sit and wait
I just can't live their proscribed way
breaking these feet of clay
it's true
just travelin' through
I live to the fullest taking time to distill
heart-felt dreams and cherished schemes

just Travelin' Through

On the road just payin' my dues
this is the way of life that I choose
I'll even stop and give the devil a ride
he's good conversation with a lot to hide
the time is now the place right here
I have some strings to bang on your ear
climb on in, if you think your worthy
give me a song moving and sturdy

most people just want to be happy
what I need is to be satisfied

Moment To Moment.
Spend a moment with me, I love to see you smile
come and fill my world, making life worthwhile

Share this moment with me, come and share ourselves
here and now is key to making memories
Take a moment with me, a treasured slice of time
when you are with me, Life and Love and Laughter is mine

Dream a moment with me
 please lay here at my side
let our feet find their place
 holding each other
let passion set the pace

Live this moment with me, let's take the time to see
give me a chance to let you know what you mean to me
Make a moment with me, a cherished slice of time
you know that I Love Thee, Life and Love and Laughter is mine

 Moment To Moment
 this is where I want to be
 interweaving our two lives
 You and I

It Was Me




written and performed by Brian McCabe and embellished by Derek Brown

It was me -
with open invitation to stay
It was me -
so full of Yes when we began to play
is this willingness true trust
or shared unbridled lust
the telling is so cliche
she left me walking funny, and my bed in disarray

It was me -
who coaxed and shared a playful, cherished joy
It was me -
with what we've shared there's no reason to be coy
is this openness true trust
it feels sacred and just
the telling is so cliche
she left me laughing happy, and my head in disarray


I don't fault your loss of trust
It was me turned away from Us
the telling is so cliche

No Fool You


music by Cody Hewitt
words by Stolen notC4
you see what cynics see
so sure that you saw through me
I came so willingly
a part played perfectly

but, no fool you
knew it was just your due
no fool you, knew
it was too good to be true

the passion that you groomed
the lie of a rose's bloom
no more than fashion's plume
aware of cost but not value

but, no fool you
knew it was just a screw
no fool you, knew
it was too good to be true


all the lights were green
surely it wasn't as it seemed
a dream is still a dream
when love wants to stay
caution comes into play
unable to believe 
feelings you can't conceive

but, no fool you
knew it was just your due
no fool you, knew
it was too good to be true
