Where the Green Grass Grows (With Toby Keith)~~Six lanes, taillights, red ants marching into the night ~ Disappear to the left and right again ~ Another supper from a sack ~ A ninety-nine cent heart attack ~ I got a pounding head and an aching back ~ And the camel's buried in a big straw stack ~ I'm going to live where the green grass grows ~ Watching my corn pop up in rows ~ Every night be tucked in close to you ~ Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed ~ Point our rocking chairs towards the west ~ And plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows ~ Where the green grass grows ~ Well I'm from a map dot, a stop sign on a blacktop ~ Caught the first bus I could hop from there ~ But all of this glitter is getting dark ~ There's concrete growing in the city park ~ I don't know who my neighbors are ~ There's bars on the corners and bars on my heart ~ But I'm going to live where the green grass grows ~ Watch my corn pop up in rows ~ Every night be tucked in close to you ~ Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed ~ Point our rocking chairs towards the west ~ And plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows ~ Where the green grass grows ~ I'm going to live where the green grass grows ~ Watch my corn pop up in rows ~ Every night be tucked in close to you ~ Raise our kids where the good Lord's blessed ~ Point our rocking chairs towards the west ~ And plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows ~ Where the green grass grows~~
For a Little While~~Hot sun, dancing on the river ~ We'd sit on the bank, watch the world go by ~ Our feet in the water, she transferred it to mine ~ We were so long in love, so short in time ~ She could be in a honeymoon suite in a little while ~ She was mine, oh, for a little while ~ I laugh every time I start to think about us ~ We sent that summer out in style ~ And she's gone, but she left me with a smile ~ Cause she was mine for a little while ~ Take a ride and head on down to Airport Road ~ Put the seats back, watch the planes leave town ~ She always said nobody's strong enough to tie her down ~ Oh, but I wasn't looking for that anyhow ~ I knew she'd leave, but I didn't know when ~ It matters to me now, oh, but it didn't back then ~ I laugh every time I start to think about us ~ We sent that summer out in style ~ And she's gone, but she left me with a smile ~ Cause she was mine for a little while ~ I keep seeing pictures now ~ Of me and her in those summer nights ~ My mind fills with her, oh, but it's all right ~ Cause I laugh every time I start to think about us ~ We sent that summer out in style ~ And she's gone, but she left me with a smile ~ Cause she was mine ~ Yes, she was mine ~ Oh, for a little while~~
It's Your Love (With Faith Hill)~~Dancing in the dark, middle of the night ~ Taking your heart and holding it tight ~ Emotional touch touching my skin ~ And asking you to do what you've been doing all over again ~ Oh, it's a beautiful thing ~ Don't think I can keep it all in ~ I just got to let you know what it is that won't let me go ~ It's your love, it just does something to me ~ It sends a shock right through me ~ I can't get enough ~ And if you wonder about the spell I'm under ~ Oh, it's your love ~ Better than I was, more than I am ~ And all of this happened by taking your hand ~ And who I am now is who I wanted to be ~ And now that we're together I'm stronger than ever ~ I'm happy and free ~ Oh, it's a beautiful thing ~ Don't think I can keep it all in ~ If you ask me why I've changed ~ All I've got to do is say your sweet name ~ It's your love, it just does something to me ~ It sends a shock right through me ~ I can't get enough ~ And if you wonder about the spell I'm under ~ Oh, it's your love ~ Oh, it's a beautiful thing ~ Don't think I can keep it all in ~ I just got to let you know what it is that won't let me go ~ It's your love, it just does something to me ~ It sends a shock right through me ~ I can't get enough ~ And if you wonder about the spell I'm under ~ Oh, it's your love ~ It's your love ~ It's your love~~
Ain't That the Way it Always Ends~~Johnny came home broken-hearted ~ Said he lost his girl ~ He bottled up all the hurt in his heart ~ While still holding the wall of his world ~ Now Betty, she was a blonde-haired beauty ~ And our poor man, he could spend ~ She stole his heart in a pickup truck ~ Then drove off in a Mercedes Benz ~ He said oh and she looked so innocent ~ Talking about being just friends ~ Oh, and it don't make a bit of sense ~ Ain't that the way that it always ends ~ Sharon she had a long time dream ~ And only one man in her life ~ He kept her waiting, but she didn't care ~ Cause he promised he'd make her his wife ~ Now Billy he had a good thing going ~ But he let it go to his head ~ He got careless and late one night ~ She caught them both in a bed ~ And she said, oh and he looked so innocent ~ Talking about being just friends ~ Oh, and it don't make a bit of sense ~ Ain't that the way that it always ends ~ Oh it always looks so innocent ~ Talking about being just friends ~ Oh, and it don't make a bit of sense ~ Ain't that the way that it always ends ~ Ain't that the way that it always ends ~ Ain't that the way it always ends~~
I Do But I Don't~~You always come back when I'm at my weak ends ~ When I'm fool enough to let you in ~ Saying how this time around is different ~ Asking if I want to try again ~ I do, but I don't ~ I want to, but I won't ~ I am, but I ain't ~ I could, but I just can't ~ It feels right, but it's wrong ~ And I've heard way too long ~ So when you ask me if I know what I want ~ I do, but I don't ~ What resistance I have left within me ~ I lose each time you're holding me this close ~ With every bittersweet kiss, girl, you tempt me ~ Asking if I want to let you go ~ I do, but I don't ~ I want to, but I won't ~ I am, but I ain't ~ I could, but I just can't ~ It feels right, but it's wrong ~ And I've heard way too long ~ When you ask me if I know what I want ~ I do, but I don't ~ So don't ask me if I know what I want ~ Cause I do, but I don't~~
One of These Days~~Used to chase that boy home from school ~ Called him freckle face and redheaded fool ~ He was different ~ He wasn't cool like me ~ Sticks and stones didn't break any bones ~ But we never left well enough alone ~ Then one day he ran away from home you see ~ I passed him as he walked away ~ And in his eyes I heard him say ~ One of these days you're going to love me ~ You'll sit down by yourself and think ~ About the times you pushed and shoved me ~ And what good friends we might have been ~ And then you're going to sigh a little ~ Maybe even cry a little, but one of these days you're going to love me ~ Patty Sue was a small town beauty ~ I took one look at her and had to pull her to me ~ Lord knows she should have seen right through me ~ When I promised her the world ~ But at seventeen you only want one thing ~ I left her standing with my high school ring ~ Innocent tears in the pouring rain ~ As I walked away ~ And I still see her in my dreams ~ And to this day she's whispering ~ One of these days you're going to love me ~ You'll sit down by yourself and think ~ About the time you turned from me ~ And what good friends we might have been ~ And then you're going to sigh a little ~ And maybe even cry a little, but one of these days you're going to love me ~ Now everybody stands up ~ The congregation sings ~ It's a song of sweet forgiveness ~ And as the chorus rings ~ The wind blows clear my memory ~ The pages start to turn ~ And suddenly I'm seeing the woman that I love ~ One of these days I'm going to love me ~ And feel the joy of sweet release ~ One of these days I'll rise above me ~ And at last I'll find some peace ~ Then I'm going to smile a little ~ And maybe even laugh a little, but one of these days I'm going to love me~~
Hard on the Ticker~~I gave up on pimento cheese, Domino's delivery, whiskey sours, apple pies, finger-licking chicken fried, are gastronomic history ~ I used to like them scary shows, but I gave them up a while ago ~ Don't do no death defying roller coaster riding ~ Nowadays I just take it slow ~ Ever since we started dating, I've been compensating ~ To keep from getting up to heaven any quicker ~ Cause she's hard on the ticker ~ Hard on the ticker ~ That girl is such a hazard that she ought to have a sticker saying Hard On The Ticker ~ When she wiggles through my door ~ My chin gets heavy, hits the floor ~ Silky hair, scarlet lips, swinging double jointed hips ~ My blood begins to roar ~ And when she nibbles on my ear ~ It's partly pleasure, partly fear ~ Little dab is all it gets to get my heart palpitating, feeling like the end is near ~ I ought to get a policy, a double amenity ~ Make my beneficiary a whole lot richer ~ Cause she's hard on the ticker ~ Hard on the ticker ~ That girl is such a hazard that she ought to have a sticker saying Hard On The Ticker ~ Yeah, she's hard on the ticker ~ I ought to get a policy, a double amenity ~ Make my beneficiary a whole lot richer ~ Cause she's hard on the ticker ~ Hard on the ticker ~ That girl is such a hazard that she ought to have a sticker saying Hard On The Ticker ~ Cause she's hard on the ticker ~ Hard on the ticker ~ She's hard on the ticker ~ She's hard on the ticker~~
Everywhere~~We were born in this little town ~ Growing up, I was counting down every single day ~ Till we made our getaway ~ You said you could never see yourself ~ Trying to make a life anywhere else ~ This would be your home and I was on my own ~ But ever since you said goodbye ~ I've been out here on the wind ~ And baby, you would be surprised ~ All the places you have been ~ I've seen you in Albuquerque, waiting out a blizzard ~ Arizona, dancing across the desert ~ Watching the sunset in Monterey ~ Girl, I swear just the other day ~ You were down in Georgia, picking out peaches ~ Carolina, barefoot on the beaches ~ No matter where you choose to be ~ In my heart I'll always see you everywhere ~ Nowadays when I'm passing through ~ The conversation always turns to you ~ And I hear you're doing fine ~ Living out by the county line ~ Got a man that's home every night ~ A couple of kids and the kind of life ~ That you want to lead ~ Guess you could say the same for me ~ But you and I made our choices ~ All those years ago ~ Still I know I'll hear your voice ~ And see you down below ~ Maybe in Oklahoma, driving across the prairie ~ Dallas, Texas, isn't that Mary ~ Always said we were like the track ~ Never did, so maybe that's why you're gone ~ Every highway, just beyond the high plains ~ Right beside me, in all of my sweet dreams ~ No matter where you choose to be ~ In my heart, I'll always see you ~ Albuquerque, waiting out a blizzard ~ Arizona, dancing across the desert ~ Watching the sunset in Monterey ~ Girl, I swear just the other day ~ You were down in Georgia, picking out peaches ~ Carolina, barefoot on the beaches ~ No matter where you choose to be ~ In my heart I'll always see you everywhere~~
Just to See You Smile~~You always had a knack for things that could hurt ~ And I was far from being made of gold ~ I don't know how, but I scraped up the money ~ I just never could quite tell you no ~ Just like when you were leaving Amarillo ~ Take that new job in Tennessee ~ And I quit mine so we could be together ~ I can't forget the way you looked at me ~ Just to see you smile ~ I'd do anything that you wanted me to ~ When all is said and done ~ I'd never count the cost ~ It's worth all that's lost ~ Just to see you smile ~ When you said time was all you really needed ~ I walked away and let you have your space ~ Only you even didn't hurt me near as badly ~ As the tears I saw rolling down your face ~ And yesterday I knew just what you wanted ~ When you came walking up to me with him ~ So I told you that I was happy for you ~ And given the chance I'd lie again ~ Just to see you smile ~ I'd do anything that you wanted me to ~ When all is said and done ~ I'd never count the cost ~ It's worth all that's lost ~ Just to see you smile ~ Just to see you smile ~ I'd do anything that you wanted me to ~ When all is said and done ~ I'd never count the cost ~ It's worth all that's lost ~ Just to see you smile~~
You Just Get Better All the Time~~You just get better all the time ~ Darling, don't you change a thing ~ Lately you're the only song I want to sing ~ You're my reason to try ~ You just get sweeter every day ~ The little things you do and say ~ If only you could see you through my eyes ~ You just get better all the time ~ Oh, and I get the feeling we can make it, babe ~ As long as you are by my side ~ You're the music in my ears, laughter when the tears are falling down in my life ~ And on down through the years ~ You never tried to change my ways ~ You never made me feel I had to say I'm sorry ~ You just get better all the time ~ Why, just today I heard you read my mind ~ That kind of magic is so hard to find ~ You just get better all the time~~
You Turn Me On~~Yeah, I swore off love, I swore off women ~ Devoted my life to hunting and fishing ~ I'd never be anybody else's lovesick fool ~ It ain't cool ~ I'd spent all my spare time fixing up that old rusted up pickup truck ~ In no time at all, I had it looking like brand new ~ Then you flipped the switch on my doomaflatchie ~ Played my piano like Liberace ~ I let down my guard, and my heart was good as gone ~ So long ~ Yeah, you cranked my tractor ~ Flicked my bic ~ Woman, you tripped the trigger on my thingamajig ~ Can't explain how you done it, but honey, you turn me on ~ You done all the taking, I done all the giving ~ I threw up my hands said the heck with it ~ I shut down my heart, locked it up and pulled the fuse before it blew ~ All my emotions were disconnected ~ No sign of a spark could be detected ~ I had nobody, so I had nothing to lose ~ Then you flipped the switch on my doomaflatchie ~ Played my piano like Liberace ~ I let down my guard, and my heart was good as gone ~ So long ~ Yeah, you cranked my tractor, you flicked my bic ~ Woman, you tripped the trigger on my thingamajig ~ Can't explain how you done it, but honey, you turn me on ~ Yeah, you cranked my tractor, you flicked my bic ~ Woman, you tripped the trigger on my thingamajig ~ Can't explain how you done it, but honey, you turn me on~~
