Independence Day" PERFECT!
Tiffany needs this one to stay alive...
- 1997, Tim McGraw & Faith Hill, "It's
Your Love"
Tiffany: "It's your love / It just does something to me / It

songs, five gets you $10,000. Three wrong, it's three strikes, and

promising anymore than one night". Close, it was "to
not promise anything more"...

Song #4:
Been singin' for my rent / an' singin' for my supper / I'm

alright / I'm all right I'm all I'm alright
Brittany: "I
got a good ol' friend here with me tonight"... That's
the NEXT line. It was "It's a beautiful day not a cloud in
the sky, so I guess I'm doing alright."
