A New Me by Bruce Bergh This is the Day. My new day has come I’m stepping out proudly, above the crowd Oh, what a difference. A positive change. My life’s improving. It’s all rearranged The road to discovery is calling my name I’m sexy and sleeker, and back in the game Oh, what a feeling! How can this be… That I have become a new me? A driving force to navigate to my destination, is a Positive attitude and determination. Learning from my past experience I’m getting better every day. No more waiting as the world passes by I’m grabbing life with gusto, Hear my war cry! Take a closer look, and you will see That I have become a new me! Instrumental I’ve taken my lifestyle, put it all on the line Daily improvements have made me refined Success & good fortune: I now have the key Because I’ve become a new me. I have become a new me. ©2011 by Bruce Bergh

Boys Will Be Boys (Controversial Country) 03:56
lyrics

Boys Will Be Boys by Bruce Bergh NOTE: THIS SONG WAS WRITTEN TO ENCOURAGE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT HOMOSEXUALITY AND ITS CONSEQUENCES. A FATHER'S RESPONSE TO HIS SON'S "COMING OUT" There’s nothing like the soft, sweet, gentle touch of a woman To satisfy the natural desires of a man A overflowing life of joy she’ll bring him A partnership designed since the world began In her heart she’ll carry love and passion In her womb she’ll bare for him a child Their deep connection soon becomes a family A unity that cannot be reviled But, you tell me, that you were born With your design based on a different plan Instead of female companionship You choose to live your life at the side of a man You’ve always marched along to a different drummer An independent viewpoint all your life Though women wish that they could love and have you You choose instead to make a man your wife. Boys will be boys, but some boys, not so much Straying from a natural way of life I can’t stand to see you hurt From sexist slurs that cut just like a knife It’s your life, and I’m not here to judge you I truly want to know, and understand Why you're forfeiting the chance of your own children And tender love and life with a woman Are you happy, not just gay With alternative choices that you’ve made? Or are you just trying to shock And justify the actions of your ways? Boys will be boys, but some boys, not so much Straying from the natural human plan Just one life. That’s all you have. I truly hope you’re happy with your man Some day maybe I will understand Be well son, and good luck with your plan ©2014 by Rednose Record Publishing (ASCAP)

Cruisin’ With My Baby Tonight By Bruce Bergh She's really hot. She's the envy of the parking lot. The kids at school tell me she's real cool When I park her in my spot. And when my baby’s by my side, The double takes get multiplied! A cherry car, classy babe, This guy's got it made, Crusin' the town tonight. We go crusin', radio blastin', Singin' good ol' rock-in-roll. Crusin', babe by my side. Nothin' can compare the way it thrills my soul! There's no better way to let me be me, There's no better way to set myself free Than cruisin'. Crusin' with my baby tonight. She answered my call. Told me to meet her at the shopping mall. She needs to buy a new dress, gotta look her best For the party Saturday night. But no matter where we go, My baby always steals the show. Yeah, She's got the look, she's got me hooked, But what a nice way to go. We go crusin', radio blastin', Singin' good ol' rock-in-roll. Crusin', babe by my side. Nothin' can compare the way it thrills my soul! There's no better way to let me be me, There's no better way to set myself free Than cruisin'. Crusin' with my baby tonight. INSTRUMENTAL We go crusin', radio blastin', Singin' good ol' rock-in-roll. Crusin', babe by my side. Nothin' can compare the way it thrills my soul!

Go Away (PG) Bruce Bergh Jasper’s got a plethora of fleas upon his back He looks so funny scratchin’ in defense of their attack And like that old hound dog I need to take the step tonight To rid my life of parasites. Just like Aunt Jemima syrup it’s a sticky situation But don’t go telling me all of your troubles And like Robinson Caruso, this ain’t really a vacation So go back home, don’t bother me no more There’s barnacles collecting on the bottom of “My Girl” I need to scrape her hull all clean and bright And like that fishing boat I need to finally win the fight To rid my life of parasites. Instrumental Just like Neil Armstrong it’s a monumental step No one in the world can argue that I feel like Christopher Columbus as I try hard to explain While every one else thinks the world is flat Please go away. Leave me alone. Oh, Please go away! It’s time for you to leave and go back home Instrumental And just like Sir Isaac Newton when will you understand? Does an apple need to fall upon your head? I’m understood by Helen Keller much better than yourself Have you listened to one word that I have said? Leaches and mosquitos, even Transylvania bats Can’t compete with your blood-sucking ways My head’s in a quandary, why can’t everyone be happy Take a trip back home and go away Please go away. Leave me alone. Oh, Please go away! It’s time for you to leave and go back home Just like Aunt Jemima syrup it’s a sticky situation But don’t go boring me with all your troubles And like nails across a chalkboard, you’ve become an irritation So go back home, don’t bother me no more So go back home, don’t bother me no more, no more ©2012 by Bruce Bergh

Goodbye, Farewell and So Long By Bruce Bergh I thought it was a good life, you and me At least as far as I could ever see Then, there was a change inside your heart That’s when all the trouble seemed to start I don’t know when it was you lost respect It’s something, some day, that you will regret Then you came and cut me like a knife The day that you pushed me from your life Once you completed me, But, you never acted like you needed me As I look back through my tears at all of the years gone wrong I gave my best to you, You played me like a fool You know that you’ve done me wrong. Goodbye, farewell and so long. Every day I have to bear the scar Of how you cut a hole in my heart Twisting all my words to suit your needs You play the role of “martyre” to a tee Manipulation is your favorite game Takin’ way my children with your blame Many are the days you’ll walk alone Destined to survive out on your own Once you completed me, But, you never acted like you needed me As I look back through my tears at all of the years gone wrong I gave my best to you, You played me like a fool You know that you’ve done me wrong. Goodbye, farewell and so long. Instrumental Bridge Once you completed me, But, you never acted like you needed me As I look back through my tears at all of the years gone wrong I gave my best to you, You played me like a fool You know that you’ve done me wrong.

I've Fallen In Love With An Angel by Bruce Bergh An ordinary day.

Her celestial ways have put me in a daze. I can’t help falling in love. I whisper in her ear, she looks at me then smiles, and takes my hand. I just can’t get enough of sharing all her love I cherish our days together, I wish our time could last forever I’m in love!

Paradise Written by Bruce Bergh A tropical breeze blowin’ through my hair. A cabana by the sea. Sailboats cruise the water. The palm trees sway, the sun shines on me. This is my vision of perfection, Within the boundaries of this earthly plane. But, it can't compare to what lies ahead When I greet my family waiting there for me in… CHORUS: Paradise, Paradise... Like nothing you have ever seen before! Paradise, oh, Paradise... I'll meet you in Paradise! I've had a glimpse of my salvation By the way God’s changed me within. And, I believe a better life awaits me Separated from temptation and sin. So, I'm planning on the ultimate destination For my future in eternity. I put my trust in the final words of Jesus As He said, on the cross, "Today...You'll be with Me in..." CHORUS We'll step out of space, out of time, To a new world we can't comprehend with our mind. No sickness, no sorrow, unending tomorrows, perfection, enlightenment untold. The streets paved with gold; new bodies, young and old. Real peace, understanding, as we stand hand in hand in.. CHORUS I don't know the time, or the place, or the year When my life on this earth will be through. But I do know that a "paradise" awaits With an open invitation for me and you. If you believe that your soul will live eternally, And put your faith in Christ, God's Son, To guide you through your 'earthly' years, Then, I'll see you there, when we meet again in... CHORUS CHORUS CHORUS I'll meet you in Paradise, Eternity will be so nice. ` I'll meet you in beautiful Paradise!
