Picture Show

I can see me living just like Clara

sippin’ champagne can’t you see me in the middle of the dance floor

that could be me

doing things like Clara

flirtin’ madly lookin’ dreamy

It must be great to be called the ‘it girl’

that’s where I wanna end up one day

I wanna be her

dressed in style like Clara

the main attraction of the picture show

I wanna live the life of an outlaw

I gonna be like Billy The Kid

when the law has got me surrounded I’m gonna shoot my way out

there were no man alive to outdraw him

no ballroom bully could stand a chance

ain’t nothin’ I can’t do with a gun

I’m gonna make a whole lotta money

I won’t count cents like my ma and pa

no one will stand in my way

I’m gonna be the guy the kids look up to

he made it big and so will I

This World Will Remember Me

I can’t wait to get away

I don’t intend to waste my life ‘round here

I’ll be rich I’ll have wealth and fame

everyone will know my name

this world will remember me

your face should be up on that silver screen

you got that ‘It Girl’ look

I always knew I’d be a star

we’re wasted around here

we’re too good for this place

we weren’t born to live and die in Texas

this is my plan - there’s no plan B

you and this world will remember me

How ‘bout a Dance

I’ve got some moves that I would love to show ya

let’s find a spot and dance the night away

music like this can really grab ya

you’ll lose the blues and you may lose your heart

You’re Going Back to Jail

we can’t spend our whole lives hiding

It is time to wipe the slate clean

thank god those prison walls are much tall to scale

my darling’s nice and safe in jail

I’ve got now lots of habits I can’t curtail

I ain’t like these other women

I will wait till kingdom come

It will be hard for us but we’ll come through

one thing is for certain our love won’t go stale

When I Drive

I’ll get your heart pumping

I’m in love I’m alive

and I forget everything I hate

I won’t pay the law no mind they’ll always be behind

We are the heroes who people look up to

and brother that feels great

this is how I wanna live I wanna die

You Can Do Better Than Him

I give you fair warning

he’s no bed of roses

he’s wild and he’s reckless

ain’t nothing but trouble

you’re better without him

we both know you can do better than him

you deserve someone who’s there all the time

someone who thinks crime don’t pay

I still see the snowy white dress that you wore

I still see the apple cheeked girl that you were

I know that you won’t do better than him

I know that you won’t do better than me

When it comes to love that is true

there’s no man who could love you like I do

You Love Who You Love

I know my heart don’t care what people say

All I know is that I never felt like this

I wouldn’t change him if I could

no man’s all good

even if my man will never fall in line glad he’s mine

‘cause you love who you love

and you can’t help how you’re made

you don’t have to say you’re heart decides

it’s that simple I’m afraid

common sense may say it’s wrong

there’s a part of him you know it’s wild

maybe that's what made you love him all along 

only care that he’s mine and I’m his

there ain’t no rules that how it is

most girls would hate to be standing I’m my shoes

but true love’s something you don’t choose

and you go with what you feel

and you never think what’s down the road while the fairytale seems real

Raise a Little Hell

I can’t take no more of this

this nightmare has to end

in this God forsaken place death would be a welcome friend

justice here don’t fit the crime

I’ve broken by the devil

justice is a waste of time

I won’t get to heaven

why not raise a little hell

no way out I gotta do this

never killed but now I have to

no way I’ll see heaven

so let’s raise a little hell

This World Will Remember Us

my name is gonna make the history books

too bad I won’t be here

it’s true that love can set you free

and this world will remember me

I can't name one movie star who's doin' robberies on the side

I know in my heart babe that Hollywood is callin'. 

how can I be in the spotlight if we always have to hide'

'hell of a Ride!' will be the words on our epitaphs

two living legends that's what we will be and that's okay with me

every place that we go folks will turn their heads

we are the pair that they'll discuss

we are makin' dang sure that we leave our mark

you don't leave your mark by digging ditches

no wonder we're who they'll discuss

this dang world will remember us

this cold world will remember us

no way they won't remember us

this world will remember us

Too Late to Turn Back Now

the dream is done is over now

with that bullet you shot him and you shot me

it’s too late to turn the clock back

it’s too late to all of that

I wouldn’t hurt you for the world babe

not too late to turn back now

it’s too late to say I’m sorry

we cannot change what happened

we were born to be together

it’s too late to turn back

my mistake is loving you

even if I walked away my heart won’t let me go far

and now look how alive we are

I knew I would make the headlines I wasn’t sure just how

feel our journey has just started

It’s too late to turn back now

That’s What You Call a Dream

just an ordinary life

easy days and quiet nights

not that’s what you call a dream

we both could live a perfect life and not go anywhere

you miss a lot when you ask too much

you’re all I night not one thing more

all I ever wanted is on this side of the door

What Was Good Enough for You

what was always good enough for you Pa hate to say ain’t good enough for me

what was always good enough for you Pa will not satisfy your wayward son

Jessie James had more fun

building dreams with just a gun

what was always good enough for you Ma gotta say ain’t good enough for me

I wanna hear diamonds one stud for each ear bright as the morning star

what was always good enough for you Ma will not satisfy your little girl

I don’t wanna miss my chance

I’m looking for romance

there ain’t nothing good enough for us here

we deserve what we’re gonna get

this world should be notified it’s gonna be a bumpy ride

thanks to Bonnie and Clyde

Bonnie

that feelin' is the best I ever had

I must be in love or else I'm goin' mad

I would like to write to Bonnie

tell the girl the way I feel

but I'm better with a car than with a pen

that girl's got somethin' nothing scares her

only piece of luck that's ever come my way

can't wait to tell her how much I've missed her

got a feelin' there are good times up ahead

Raise a Little Hell (reprise)

now our dreams are so much bigger

these are gonna change our lives

been a long time comin' so let's raise a little hell

we won't get to heaven so let's raise a little hell

all I want to do is save her

he took everything God gave her

big time's just around the corner

we are gonna be more famous than a hundred Al Capones

Dyin’ Ain’t So Bad

dyin' ain't so bad not if you both go together

only when one's left behind does it get sad

but a short and lovin' life that ain't so bad

I couldn't live on memories

there are some things in life you can't replace

A love like ours don't happen twice

when all his days are through mine will be too

I've met boys who talk 'bout farms and horses and they don't do much for me

I don't need to end up in a rocking chair

I'd rather breathe in life than dusty air

This Never Happened Before

ain't done this since God knows when

It may take some little time till I raise hell again

just hold me darlin' that's all I needed

you ain't got nothin' to prove

just lyin' with you is perfect we'll spoil it if we move

just stayin' close will keep me satisfied

this night should've been so much more
