Midnight Drive
03:36
|
|||
|
Driving like a duke boy. Riding in my new toy.
Shooting her a text says “I’m picking you up.”
She’s my dirt road baby. A sexy kind of crazy.
Can’t wait to see her getting in this truck.
She’s my shotgun rider, my little all nighter.
A God-given gift that he gave to me.
Ain’t afraid to put her boots on, she’s red white and blue strong
And I can’t wait to see her tonight.
On the midnight drive, just you and me.
Girl you know it ain’t like we got anywhere else better to be.
All we got is time to kill and I got a dime in the passenger seat.
It’s twelve o’clock on the dot, girl you’re hot, it’s worth a shot
And I’m feeling you tonight
On the midnight drive.
Yeah the radio’s got her favorite tune
And by the look in her eyes I’m gonna pull over soon
And fog up the windows and see how far she’ll let me go.
She puts her hand on my knee and shoots me that smile
Aays “Baby do you mind if I drove a while?”
Girl you know as long as I’m by your side
I’ll always be along for the ride.
On the midnight drive, just you and me.
Girl you know it ain’t like we got anywhere else better to be.
All we got is time to kill and I got a dime in the passenger seat.
It’s twelve o’clock on the dot, girl you’re hot, it’s worth a shot
And I’m feeling you tonight
On the midnight drive.
On that midnight drive.
When them blue lights get on our tail I see the fire in your eyes.
Yeah I know that look yeah you’re ready to raise some hell.
On the midnight drive, just you and me.
Girl you know it ain’t like we got anywhere else better to be.
All we got is time to kill and I got a dime in the passenger seat.
It’s twelve o’clock on the dot, girl you’re hot, it’s worth a shot
And I’m feeling you tonight
On the midnight drive.
On that midnight drive.

Well I heard ya been running around this little town
I heard ya been running your mouth, well girl, I’m bout to shut it down
Yeah, you think you know, but naw, you ain’t got a clue
It’s almost like you ain’t got nothing better to do
Yeah I’ve been known to have a cold beer or a whiskey on a Saturday night
And that’s alright
And my truck broke down last week
So now I gotta ask some of my best friends for a ride
And that’s ok
Cause when it comes to me and you, oh girl, I’m so glad we’re through
And I’m doing a whole lot better than you
I lost my job. Hell, I don’t care
I got a real good plan to go get some of that Carolina fresh air
Maybe down by the beach, or out by the lake
I’m gonna do what I got to do to get your name out my mind for goodness sake
Yeah I’ve been known to have a cold beer or a whiskey on a Saturday night
And that’s alright
And my truck broke down last week
So now I gotta ask some of my best friends for a ride
And that’s ok
Cause when it comes to me and you, oh girl, I’m so glad we’re through
And I’m doing a whole lot better than you
Don’t sweat the small stuff
Don’t let the bad times get in the way
Oh, don’t do it
Thanks to you and all your runnin’ around
I get to see how good I’ve got it made
Yeah I’ve been known to have a cold beer or a whiskey on a Saturday night
And that’s alright
And my truck broke down last week
So now I gotta ask some of my best friends for a ride
And that’s ok
Cause when it comes to me and you, oh girl, I’m so glad we’re through
And I’m doing a whole lot better than you
I’m doing a whole lot better than you
Yeah, I’m doing a whole lot better than you
A whole lot better than you

If I Had It My Way
03:24
|
|||
|
Yeah I know that we ended on some bad terms
But my heart can’t take the fact that it’s over and the bridge is burned
If I had a time machine I’d go back and rewrite the page in the book of our history
I’d do whatever it takes to make you wanna stay
But I know there’s some things that I can’t change
But if I had it my way you’d have never walked away
You would still be standing here to listen to what I got to say
And I wouldn’t be sitting here drinking all alone
And I wouldn’t have to delete your number from my phone
Yeah the bottle is my only friend and I just want you back again
And you would say the same
If I had it my way
No I can’t really say what got into me that night
Oh I must have just had a bad day but I was looking for a fight
And then I said some things I shouldn’t have said and now it plays like a song repeating in my head
And as time passes by the fact still remains
But if I had it my way you’d have never walked away
You would still be standing here to listen to what I got to say
And I wouldn’t be sitting here drinking all alone
And I wouldn’t have to delete your number from my phone
Yeah the bottle is my only friend and I just want you back again
And you would say the same
If I had it my way
Yeah I saw you with somebody new and I just hope he’s good to you
Does make you laugh I hope he holds you tight
Does he make you smile I hope he treats you right
But if I had it my way you’d have never walked away
You would still be standing here to listen to what I got to say
And I wouldn’t be sitting here drinking all alone
And I wouldn’t have to delete your number from my phone
Yeah the bottle is my only friend and I just want you back again
And you would say the same
If I had it my way

Lazy Day
04:22
|
|||
|
Naw I don’t really care for a forty hour work week
Yeah I’d rather feel that sand underneath my bare feet
And I don’t give a damn about clocking in or clocking out
Yeah I’d rather know what that little fishin hole is all about
I’m taking a lazy day. I’m gonna sit my ass in the shade
I got my baby and my dog right here
And I’m sipping on an ice cold beer
Yeah she’s got a set of long tan legs and my buddy just bought a keg
Yeah we’re partying out on the pier
I’ll write a letter saying “Wish you were here.”
But don’t you bother trying to call my phone
Cause you'll get a “Hey man, what’s up? Hell I’m just kidding. Leave a message at the tone.”
I’m taking a lazy day.
I’m a firm believer that everyone should take a break
From all that running around and busting our backs at a nine-to-five pace
So take a little toke and just chill out yeah that’s what this life is all about
Take it from me cause I know it’s true
If it’ll work for me it’ll work for you on a lazy day
I’m gonna sit my ass in the shade
I got my baby and my dog right here
And I’m sipping on an ice cold beer
Yeah she’s got a set of long tan legs and my buddy just bought a keg
Yeah we’re partying out on the pier
I’ll write a letter saying “Wish you were here.”
But don’t you bother trying to call my phone
Cause you'll get a “Hey man, what’s up? Hell I’m just kidding. Leave a message at the tone.”
I’m taking a lazy day.
Naw there ain't nothing wrong with an honest days work.
But i'd rather be kicking it with my girl than shoveling in the dirt
I’m taking a lazy day. I’m gonna sit my ass in the shade
I got my baby and my dog right here
And I’m sipping on an ice cold beer
Yeah she’s got a set of long tan legs and my buddy just bought a keg
Yeah we’re partying out on the pier
I’ll write a letter saying “Wish you were here.”
But don’t you bother trying to call my phone
Cause you'll get a “Hey man, what’s up? Hell I’m just kidding. Leave a message at the tone.”
I’m taking a lazy day.

Love Songs
03:47

Yeah she calls me on the phone
Says “Baby when you coming home?”
Girl I don’t really know but I hope it’s soon
Yeah I’m out here on the road trying to see where it goes
But no matter all the miles yeah girl just no I’m thinking of you
Just know I’m thinking of you
Yeah I wonder if she wonders about the things I do
All the memories of her in my head spinning around
Making me smile like they always do
Yeah that’s my girl yeah that’s my world
And I hope I never do her wrong
Yeah I wonder if that girl knows she’s the reason I write love songs
Yeah I’d love to her smile
Lord knows it’s been a while
But here lately all I’ve are these cigarettes and a bottle and this old six string
Girl when I get home no I ain’t gonna leave you alone
I’m gonna dance you around this little town. Show you off
Yeah I’ll do anything. We’re gonna do everything
Yeah I wonder if she wonders about the things I do
All the memories of her in my head spinning around
Making me smile like they always do
Yeah that’s my girl yeah that’s my world
And I hope I never do her wrong
Yeah I wonder if that girl knows she’s the reason I write love songs
She’s the reason I can push through the struggle and strife
Yeah that girl’s the song I’ve been waiting to sing my whole damn life
Yeah I wonder if she wonders about the things I do
All the memories of her in my head spinning around
Making me smile like they always do
Yeah that’s my girl yeah that’s my world
And I hope I never do her wrong
Yeah I wonder if that girl knows she’s the reason I write love songs

Good Time All Nighter
03:13
|

“Hey man, did you bring the matches?”
“Yep”
“You did remember the gas, right?”
“Yeah I got it”
“What about the beer?”
“I got everything man, just trust me”
“Alright, well let’s get this thing started”
I got my daddy’s old Valvoline hat turned back. Got fuel in the Chevy, a can of Cope, and a six pack
Heading to the fire with a few good friends. Gonna kick it on back and let that weekend begin
Been working all week on an honest man’s pay but the paycheck’s here so it’s time to go play
My daddy taught me good, we don’t discriminate around here
Ain’t been here before? Go ahead and grab yourself a beer
But if you ain’t kicking ‘em back, then you can get the hell out
Cause when we’re throwing down that’s what it’s all about
Partying way out here in the sticks and when you cross the creek you better mind the ditch
Lifted up trucks sitting on mud tires. Brush in a field so I can light the fire
If you’re passing by, slow it down. If you’re one of us, you’ll know the sound of a good time
It’s a 6.6 Duramax in a mudhole
The girls get a little wild when we pull out the 4-wheelers and the fishin’ poles
If you ain’t having a good time, then just go home
But if you ain’t kicking ‘em back, then you can get the hell out
Cause when we’re throwing down that’s what it’s all about
Partying way out here in the sticks and when you cross the creek you better mind the ditch
Lifted up trucks sitting on mud tires. Brush in a field so I can light the fire
If you’re passing by, slow it down. If you’re one of us, you’ll know the sound of a good time
Of a good time all nighter
When the flames die down we’ll cut the music, let the crickets sing
Girl, just set right there and keep on doing your thing
But if you ain’t kicking ‘em back, then you can get the hell out
Cause when we’re throwing down that’s what it’s all about
Partying way out here in the sticks and when you cross the creek you better mind the ditch
Lifted up trucks sitting on mud tires. Brush in a field so I can light the fire
If you’re passing by, slow it down. If you’re one of us, you’ll know the sound of a good time
Of a good time all nighter

Beach Bum
03:44
|

|
I ain’t home like I probably should be
I ain’t been to work in three damn days
And my heart keeps holding on to your memories
So I guess I’ll just drink it away
Oh I’m in need of an ice cold beer with my feet hanging off that 2nd Avenue pier
I’m a beach bum sipping on an ice cold Corona
If you ask me, I ain’t got a care in the world
Oh I’m just gonna do everything I can to get my mind off you
Sing and drink and dance until my face turns blue with a green eyed girl
Yeah that forty hour paycheck was pretty nice but I got a cold beer down here in paradise
Looking back now I guess I was itching to run but I gotta admit it’s pretty fun
Being a beach bum
Now my boss, he wasn’t to happy
When I told him it was my last day
He said “Boy what’s gotten into ya?”
I looked at him with nothing to say
I ain’t gonna waste my time
Oh I know that I can do better
She was never worth my dime
Now I’m searching for better weather
I’m a beach bum sipping on an ice cold Corona
If you ask me, I ain’t got a care in the world
Oh I’m just gonna do everything I can to get my mind off you
Sing and drink and dance until my face turns blue with a green eyed girl
Yeah that forty hour paycheck was pretty nice but I got a cold beer down here in paradise
Looking back now I guess I was itching to run but I gotta admit it’s pretty fun
Being a beach bum
Back at home I know I got bills and responsibilities
But while I got my feet in the sand no it don’t matter to me
Cause I’m a beach bum sipping on an ice cold Corona
If you ask me, I ain’t got a care in the world
Oh I’m just gonna do everything I can to get my mind off you
Sing and drink and dance until my face turns blue with a green eyed girl
Yeah that forty hour paycheck was pretty nice but I got a cold beer down here in paradise
Looking back now I guess I was itching to run but I gotta admit it’s pretty fun
Being a beach bum

Didn't Have A Clue
04:20

Took her out on a Friday night
Everything was going just right
Girl I didn’t have a clue what that first kiss was gonna do
By the way you’re looking right now
Sure would like to figure you out
The kind of guessing game I like to play
Doing everything I can to make this country girl’s day
Now take my hand. I want to be your man
Getting down in the summer sun
Drink a beer while we get a tan
You can be my Marlboro Red, I can be your cold Bud Light
Take a trip to my daddy’s pond
Steal a kiss under starlit skies
No I didn’t know what I was gonna do
Girl I didn’t have a clue
You never know what God’s got planned
Just a crazy thing that we call life
I never knew that after that first kiss I’d want to make you my wife
Now take my hand. I want to be your man
Getting down in the summer sun
Drink a beer while we get a tan
You can be my Marlboro Red, I can be your cold Bud Light
Take a trip to my daddy’s pond
Steal a kiss under starlit skies
No I didn’t know what I was gonna do
Girl I didn’t have a clue
Now just take my hand. I want to be your man
Getting down in the summer sun
Drink a beer while we get a tan
You can be my Marlboro Red, I can be your cold Bud Light
Take a trip to my daddy’s pond
Steal a kiss under starlit skies
No I didn’t know what I was gonna do
Girl I didn’t have a clue
Girl I didn’t have a clue
Girl I didn’t have a clue that it was you

Pieces To The Puzzle
03:59
|
|||
|
When I was growing up, no, we didn’t have much
A little old house and a beat up truck
My daddy left me when I was just ten years old
Left me with only my mother’s hand to hold
She worked like hell just to pay the bills
Missed out on some sleep, lost out on some thrills
But the good lord knows I can’t complain
Yeah, there’s gonna be some mountains, but I’m gonna climb them
Right now I might not see the light at the end of the tunnel
but I’m gonna find it
No matter how much the times will change, gotta keep walking against the rain
Cause no matter all the heartache, the hard times, or the struggle
They’re just pieces to the puzzle
Been doing a lot of talking with the man upstairs
Saying that the grass is always greener on the other side, just take me there
But most of the time that isn’t the case
And you gotta fall flat on your face to see
That this is where you’re meant to be
Yeah, there’s gonna be some mountains, but I’m gonna climb them
Right now I might not see the light at the end of the tunnel
but I’m gonna find it
No matter how much the times will change, gotta keep walking against the rain
Cause no matter all the heartache, the hard times, or the struggle
They’re just pieces to the puzzle
I know it’s easy to get scared
Oh but that’s alright, that’s ok
I’ve been there
Yeah, there’s gonna be some mountains, but you gotta climb them
Right now you might not see the light at the end of the tunnel
but your gonna find it
No matter how much the times will change, you gotta keep walking against the rain
Cause no matter all the heartache, the hard times, or the struggle
They’re just pieces to your puzzle

Oh, I hate it when she says she isn’t pretty, cause I know that it’s a lie
But then again maybe she really doesn’t know how often I get lost in her eyes
She’s got a soothing way of talking, a sexy little way of walking
Yeah, she’s cute in them boots that I bought her last spring
Nah, that girl doesn’t know what she does to me
And I’d hate for her to let me go.
I love her mind, her body, her soul
And I just love riding around this little one horse town
Hitting the highway at 125
She’s got her hand on my knee and we’re feelin’ alive
Carolina sun shining in her hair, she’s the pretty thing I’ve ever seen
I swear sometimes it’s hard to believe she could ever love a guy like me
A guy like me
No, I ain’t the best guy in the world
But I feel like superman when I’m with you, girl.
Yeah, sometimes I drink too much
But nothin’ beats a hangover like you in my truck
And I’d to ever see her go.
She's the better half of my soul.
And I just love riding around this little one horse town
Hitting the highway at 125
She’s got her hand on my knee and we’re feelin’ alive
Carolina sun shining in her hair, she’s the pretty thing I’ve ever seen
I swear sometimes it’s hard to believe she could ever love a guy like me
A guy like me
There’s only one kinda girl like her in the world and I gotta let her know
I’d do anything she wants to do and go wherever she goes
And I just love riding around this little one horse town
Hitting the highway at 125
She’s got her hand on my knee and we’re feelin’ alive
Carolina sun shining in her hair, she’s the pretty thing I’ve ever seen
I swear sometimes it’s hard to believe she could ever love a guy like me
A guy like me
I don't know why you put up with me darlin'
But I love the fact that you do

Summer days. In a Haze.
Spinning around like I’m losing my mind.
Getting loud running with this crowd
Driving too fast like we’re all out of time
No it don’t matter what time of the year you can find us sitting right here
Cracking cold cans in the night and sipping on home-made clear
When the sun goes down in this little town you know what we’re bound to do
I’ll grab the beer and you’ll grab the ice and we’ll pop a top or two
Fall breeze. Watching the leaves changing color right in front of our eyes
Yeah you know it’s time to cross that county line and light the fir like it’s 4th of July
No it don’t matter what time of the year you can find us sitting right here
Cracking cold cans in the night and sipping on home-made clear
When the sun goes down in this little town you know what we’re bound to do
I’ll grab the beer and you’ll grab the ice and we’ll pop a top or two
When that winter time rolls around yeah you know where we can be found
In a tree stand with a gun in our hand somewhere on the outskirts of town
It’s in our blood, it’s what we love. You know we like to get down.
No it don’t matter what time of the year you can find us sitting right here
Cracking cold cans in the night and sipping on home-made clear
When the sun goes down in this little town you know what we’re bound to do
I’ll grab the beer and you’ll grab the ice and we’ll pop a top or two
No it don’t matter what time of the year you can find us sitting right here
Cracking cold cans in the night and sipping on home-made clear
When the sun goes down in this little town you know what we’re bound to do
I’ll grab the beer and you’ll grab the ice and we’ll pop a top or two
