'America stands up for me', an original song by Nancy P. Goodman
(written after seeing Lee Greenwood at the
Tuesday night Opry on 4/15/08)

I stand up for the flag
And I stand up for liberty
I stand up for Lee Greenwood
When he sings 'God bless the USA' to me

I stand up for the downtrodden
I stand up for the weak
I stand up for the sick
And America stands up for me

Yes, America stands up for me
With her mighty will
America stands up for me
With all her men of steel

America won’t let me down
she will stand her ground
America won’t let me down
she will stand her ground

When Kitty Wells Came Along,
an original song by Nancy P. Goodman

when Kitty Wells came along
just wanting to sing her song
everybody kept saying
nay!
but she went
right on ahead
despite their dread

Kitty Wells made records
her own way
She was country before
it was so cool
she was the original
country 'old-school'
She led the way for Patsy Cline
and for Loretta Lynn
You can count on more than
these fingers of mine
all those famous country women singers
there've been since then
Yes, Faith Hill comes to mind
Martina McBride too
Trisha Yearwood and the Dixie Chicks
benefited from all Kitty Wells did

'Vroom, Vroom, Twang, Twang, Twang', by Nancy P. Goodman, original song

vroom, vroom, twang, twang, twang

this town has been
rockin' us to sleep
with a steel guitar
and wakin' us
to the thunder
of a fast racecar

vroom, vroom, twang, twang, twang
vroom, vroom, twang, twang, twang

Don't know whether to sing
or go jump in the car
it's a mystery
to know
just where we are

vroom, vroom, twang, twang, twang
vroom, vroom, twang, twang, twang

when the folks gather round us
in this here town
it's gonna be a guitar pull
or a racecar throwdown

vroom, vroom, twang, twang, twang
vroom, vroom, twang, twang, twang

it'll be little jimmy dickens
on one end of the stage
then it may be dale jr
coming outta that racecar cage
(climbing outta that racecar cage)

vroom, vroom, twang, twang, twang
vroom, vroom, twang, twang, twang

you may see somebody
that looks like merle
but at the other end
it may be a racing girl

vroom, vroom, twang, twang, twang
vroom, vroom, twang, twang, twang
---
them racecars and singers
they all go together
they'll play and they'll race
in all kinds of weather

'This Ain't No Perfect Storm', by Nancy P. Goodman, original song

This ain't no perfect storm
this ain't no perfect storm
but i do know
when i'm happy
this ain't no perfect storm
but i do know
love does makes me sappy
if you have
a perfect storm
from all day, all night
to the early morn
live on,
perfect storm
live on
no one ever
knows it all
some never know to
answer the call
no one is ever,
oh, too tall
some are
forever and always small

if you have
a perfect storm
from all day, all night
to the early morn

live on,
perfect storm
live on

'Aint't Never Seen Many Men', by Nancy P. Goodman, original song

‎Wednesday, ‎06 ‎July, ‎2011
08:01:48 AM

ain't never seen many men

ain't never seen
many men
who ever understood
a woman

they just scratch their heads
and run on away,
a groaning

they never seem to wanna try
to find out why
a woman cries

and they don't wanna be
in our sights
when we get free

ain't never seen
so many men
who never understood
a single woman

'You Really Can't Get There From Here', by Nancy P. Goodman, an original song

‎Thursday, ‎07 ‎July, ‎2011
05:31:28 AM

you really can't get there from here


you know
you really
can't
get there from here

not even by
getting drunk or
drinking more beer

this is not the
jumping off place
but it is the end of the world
for the human race

nobody
ever
comes here
no more

don't even know
what they would
ever come here for

it's just a lonely
spot on the way
to just another
'nother
lonely day
