TWO FOR TUESDAY


Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world. For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously ferverent rants of rebellion. Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.


Flirtin’ With Disaster
Molly Hatchet
Well I’m travelin’ down the road
I’m flirtin’ with disaster
I’ve got the pedal to the floor
My life is runnin’ faster
I’m out of money
Out of hope
It looks like self-destruction
Well how much more can we take
With all of this corruption

Well I’m travelin’ down the road
Y’all know what I mean
You know the way we run our lives
It makes no sense to me
I don’t know about yourself
Or what you plan to be yeah
When we gamble with our time
We choose our destiny

Yeah

I’m travelin’ down that lonesome road
Fell like I’m draggin’ a heavy load
Don’t try to turn my head away
I feel about the same most every day

Speedin’ down the fast lane
Playin’ from town to town
The boys and I have been burnin’ it up
Can’t seem to slow it down
I’ve got the pedal to the floor
Our lives are runnin’ faster
Get our sights set straight ahead
But ain’t sure what we’re after

Fliritin’ with disaster
Y’all know what I mean
You know the way we run our lives
It makes no sense to me
I don’t know about yourself
Or what you want to be yeah
When we gamble with our time
We choose our destiny

Yeah we’re travelin’ down that lonesome road
Feel like I’m draggin’ a heavy load
Don’t try to turn my head away
I’m flirtin’ with disaster every day

Flirtin’ with disaster
Y’all know what I mean
You know the way we run our lives
It makes no sense to me
I don’t know about yourself
Or what you plan to be yeah
When we gamble with our time
We choose our destiny

Yeah

We’re traveling down that lonesome road
Feel like I’m draggin’ a heavy load
Don’t try to turn my head away
I’m fliritin’ with disaster every day


Dreams I’ll Never See
Molly Hatchet
Oh oh
Yeah yeah

Just one more mornin’
I had to wake up with the blues
Pulled myself out of bed yeah
Put on my walkin’ shoes
Climbed up on the hilltop baby
To see what I could see
The whole world was fallin’ down babe
Right down in front of me

‘Cause I’m hung up
On my dreams
I’m never gonna see yeah
Lord help me babe
Dreams got the best of me yeah

Pull myself together
Gonna put on a new face yeah
Climb down from the hilltop baby
And get back in the race

‘Cause I’ve got dreams
I’ve got my dreams
To remember
Oh yeah
I’ve got dreams
I’ve got my dreams
To remember
Oh yeah

‘Cause I’m hung up
On my dreams
I’m never gonna see yeah
Lord help me babe
Dreams got the best of me yeah

All right
Yeah yeah

Pull myself together
Gonna put on a new face yeah
Climb down from the hilltop baby
And get back in the race

‘Cause I’ve got dreams
I’ve got my dreams
To remember
Oh yeah
I’ve got dreams
I’ve got my dreams
To remember
Oh yeah

‘Cause I’m hung up
On my dreams
I’m never gonna see yeah
Lord help me babe
Dreams got the best of me yeah

  1. I never listened to much of them back in the day but I do remember them.

  2. Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Ann!!! I claimed "Flirtin' With Disaster" as my own personal theme song before the change. Kansas' "Carry On My Wayward Son" replaced it afterward, but it still hold a lot of meaning to me--as does "Dreams I'll Never See." For one of the biggest problems I still have is clinging to my own expectations and being shattered when they are not met.
