Gonna woman up and take it like a man I am, I am
I’m gonna woman up and take it like a man I am, I am
I’m gonna woman up and take it like a man
Driven
Verse one:
Driven to insanity, driven to the edge Driven to the point of almost no return Driven to think awful thoughts, do awful things But at least I’d like to think I’ve learned I’m driven, driven to be smarter Driven to work harder
Driven to be better every day Driven to keep on and on To achieve the things I want I’ll be sorry if I don’t Make the most of livin’
I, I-I-I-I, I, I-I-I-I, I, I-I-I I’m driven
Bridge:
I’ve got drive
I try to do more than survive Reachin’ out to take what life has given One thing you can say for me is I, I-I-I-I, I, I-I-I-I, I, I-I-I I’m driven
(Turnaround:)
I-I-I I’m driven
Second chorus:
Driven, driven to be smarter Driven to work harder
Driven to be better every day Driven, yes you gotta be Nothing you cannot achieve Take the wheel and just believe That you can change your life Just say I, I-I-I-I, I, I-I-I-I, I, I-I-I I’m willin’
I, I-I-I-I, I, I-I-I-I, I, I-I-I I’m driven
Tag:
I’m driven, I’m driven
Driven…willin’
I, I-I-I I’m driven
I, I-I-I I’m driven
Driven, driven
Dark Night, Bright Future
First chorus:
Dark night, bright future Like the phoenix from the ashes, I shall rise again Dark night, bright future I’ve been hurt and broken but I am on the mend Got so much ahead of me
The past is gonna set me free Learn from it and just believe That I can touch the sky
Verse one:
Everyone knows happiness Everybody grieves
We all cry, we all smile Everybody bleeds
Everybody has a past, things they want to hide There’s give, take, love, hate in each and every life
Second chorus:
Dark night, bright future Like the phoenix from the ashes, I shall rise again Dark night, bright future I’ve been hurt and broken, but I am on the mend Got so much ahead of me
What’s in the past, I’ll leave it be Learn from it and just believe That I can touch the sky
Bridge:
Forgiveness is a magic wand, makes things disappear Kindness wipes away regret, hope can conquer fear Tenderness, a soothing balm, healing wounds and scars Love says we can start anew right from where we are
Third chorus:
Dark night, bright future I’m on my way, I start today I’m gonna be all right
Dark night, bright future It’s darkest just before the light And though it’s been a long dark night Blue sky on the other side
Half chorus:
Dark night, bright future Like the phoenix from the ashes, I shall rise again Dark night, bright future I’ve been hurt and broken But I am on the mend

Big Dreams and Faded Jeans
Verse one:
Put on my jeans, my favorite shirt Pull up my boots and hit the dirt Finally doin’ somethin’ I’ve dreamed of for years Don’t know quite what to expect A little scared, but what the heck My desire is always greater than my fear
Chorus:
Big dreams and faded jeans Fit together like a team
Always busting at the seams Big dreams and faded jeans Just my ole guitar and me
Out to find my destiny
Nashville is the place to be For big dreams and faded jeans
Verse two:
Put out my thumb and wish for luck To hitch a car, a semi-truck Sooner or later one will catch me
in their beams
Then I’ll be on my way at last Find a future, lose a past Waiting silent as the passion in me screams
Half chorus:
Big dreams and faded jeans Fit together like a team
Always busting at the seams Big dreams and faded jeans
Bridge:
May the stars that fill my eyes Guide my path and be my light And may God provide the means To accomplish my big dreams, my big dreams
Third chorus:
Big dreams and faded jeans Fit together like a team
Always busting at the seams Big dreams and faded jeans Like the song “Bobby McGee”
I’m just longin’ to be free Take me where I want to be Big dreams and faded jeans
Tag:
And there are many just like me With big dreams and faded jeans Mm-mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm-mm
