Verse 1
Time don’t freeze, and the world goes round.
What goes up must come down.
But when you said you were gonna leave,
I guess that’s when it occurred to me.

Chorus
All of a sudden I can’t call you baby.

She can turn a rose to breathe
Even with the weight of the world on her back
For as much as she believes
Praying, "God, oh won't you please cut me some slack"
And there's a time for new beginnings
There's a time for the end
I'm not sure what direction she's finally moving in

There's a full moon cuttin' cross the country side
Cold beer sittin' on country store ice
There's a country girl standin' on her front porch steps
Waitin' on a boy that's as wild as it gets
And the way she looks at him
Says it's gonna be one of them
Country nights, country roads
Yeah, country kids going where the country kids go

Crazy things
You say you couldn't live without me
You say crazy things
Like no one else could make you happy
And sometimes I laugh out loud
At how ridiculous that sounds

Crazy things roll off your lips

Climbin' through the clouds,
I'm so close now
To feelin' your touch.
I'm headin' southwest for Dallas love.
Peace of mind as I close my eyes.
You're all I'm dreamin' of.
And I'm almost home, Dallas love.
Oh, I can see the light

Verse 1
I think it’s time to take a drive,
man it’s been too long
and you know it sounds so sweet.
Cuz when the gravel hits the tires
it’ll right the wrongs
of too much city, and too much concrete.

Verse 1
I’m sending tulips to where you work
with a note and a bible verse
and an “I Love You”, hoping that you still do.
I’m sitting here when you pull in the drive.
I got a hug waiting for you inside
and an “I’m sorry” too, baby I’ve been a fool.

He's a flatland farmer
Who flatpicks an old guitar
Yeah he's a flatland farmer
He flatpicks an old guitar
He don't make no money
But he can out-pick a Nashville star

Yeah the people come in pick-ups

Verse 1
There’s a place I like to go
where the fast songs meet the slow.
And people come from miles around
just to hear an old guitar sound
Call your friends and I’ll call mine.
We’ll have ourselves a country time.
Get there early and have a few drinks,

Hells' gates on fire
Two million acres gone
When the going gets tough
The tough gets moving on
Morning noon or night
The fighters take chances
If grit was worth its weight in water
There's no way the fire advances

Verse 1
Let the water drops fall down upon your chest
and carry away with them all your stress.
Let the steam begin to rise and fill this room
with the intoxicating smell of your perfume.

Chorus
I will touch your neck, kiss your shoulders,

In my hometown
Population just a few thousand
All of them kids at the drive-in
After Friday nights football game

That's the same place
Where mom and dad went on their first date
Had the same burger I just ate

Verse 1
Trust is a funny thing,
never know what it can bring,
but it sure can cause you pain.
I’ve been hurt a time or two,
baby I know so have you
so lets put the past away.

There's faded paint down Walnut Street
That's the cotton gin where the farmers meet
And there's the water tower, I never had the guts to climb
Sums up how, some folks live and others die, trying.

She'll pick you up & pull you down.
And everyone waves when they're driving through town
Yeah the faces may change, but the last names never do.

Verse 1
You walked in with all your friends
Caught eyes with me and then turned your head
Reluctantly started my way, probably thinking of what to say
And you sat down

Smiled at me and said hello
Five minutes later it was time to go

I don't wanna be a good line, good time
Come and go, leave you alone in the middle of the night
I don't wanna be your walk of shame, forget your name
The one you hate, makes you say "no" next time

I, I just wanna kiss you good tonight
I just wanna show you that I
I just wanna kiss you good

She said to take a left we got a story to write
And it ain't pennies that are going in the fountain tonight
I'm looking all around, she said nobody knows
You're gonna wanna start taking off your clothes
And I'll never forget the way she said

You gotta live it while you got it
You gotta live it while you got it

I’ve been walking Matagorda Bay, thinking about you the whole day
Hot Texas sand under my feet and the waves of the gulf crush the beach

This hot sun has got a way of making my beer cold
Just like sun burnt children have got a way of making me feel old
And all these honeymooners, man I’m feeling alone
So I’m picking up seashells, waiting on you to come back home

Verse 1
Every now and again I see an old friend and they ask how you are.
They see in my eyes; they know I can’t lie; I haven’t seen you in years.
Called a buddy the other day, all he had to say was “Do you remember when?”
I said “yes I do,” made me think about you and how I miss you again.

Chorus
I miss you again like words miss your name.

Theres a line of thunderheads
Movin in from the west
It might finally rain today
But the crops are already dead
And at home theres a woman whos lonely
Im already half way gone
Shes all that I have left
And now shes barely hangin on

[Verse 1]
Koozie’s in the console, beer’s on the floor,
and everybody’s gassing up their Fords.
I got good tunes blaring sing-along-songs,
and everybody’s glad to get long gone.

[Chorus]
Well it’s Friday night and we’re getting out of town.

This world is far from small
And her heart is the center of it all
And there's a river that runs through hills, and it's never still

Listen closely to the sky
And it'll show you how to dot life's I's.
And don't be afraid if the girl decides to run
It's half of the fun

She's as free as the Blue Bonnets in the summer
She's as hot as the Padre Island sun
Most of the times she's as warm and friendly
Like the hills that surround Austin

She's as bright as the Dallas sky
She always holds her head up high
She loves the company of her family

Daddy was a farmer, like his Daddy was before
It only seemed fitting, I walk through the same door
I met my wife in high school, she was the prettiest I'd ever seen
I'm not sure why she chose me, but she'll always be my homecoming queen
I got you to forever hold; I'm not letting go
I feel like I'm right where I need to be
I thank the Lord everyday, if I get the chance to pray
For all these blessings, He's given me

No, I really don't have time to talk to you
And how dare you even ask me after all the hell you put me through
And I never said, I never said this wouldn't be hard
And this time, I've gotta guard my heart

This isn't easy
This isn't easy, yeah
This isn't easy, it's what I gotta do

A little longer, baby stay with me a little longer
I just want your touch again, to feel your body giving in
It’s pulling at me, my desire to make you happy
I want to feel your touch again
Let’s just lie here together chasing forever
I can’t get enough of your love
Brave and relentless, sweet and defenseless,
I can never get enough every time we touch

Got off work, counting my tips
Sixty bucks and no cents
And nothing to do, and the rent ain't due
So I called my friends, said we're going out
No worries, I got the first round tonight
Down at The Blue Light
Doesn't matter what band plays
I'll have a beer in my hand leaning up against the stage
