"75"

"75"


I'm starting to hate
All these cigarettes and this loneliness
And I'm starting to fade
Like the lines on route 143

Sometimes I feel like I might wanna get off this ride
As my bedroom rolls down this long highway at 75

And this highway ain't no place for home-loving drifters like me
All these hotels and bars
Rides in stretched cars
Ain't for me

I'm tired of missing
The moments I'll never get back
And I'm tired of missing
The smiles on my little girl's face

Sometimes I feel like I might wanna get off this ride
As my bedroom rolls down this long highway at 75

And this highway ain't no place for home-loving drifters like me
All these hotels and bars
Rides in stretched cars
Ain't for me

And this highway ain't no place for home-loving drifters like me
All these hotels and bars
Rides in stretched cars
Ain't for me

So, sometimes I feel like I might wanna get off this ride
As my bedroom rolls down this long highway at 75
As my bedroom rolls down this long highway at 75

"Anywhere But Here"

"Anywhere But Here"


This road is going nowhere
And these, these shoes are worn too thin
There's always should-haves where I'm going
There's always could-haves where I've been.

And all the things that I've said
And the road up ahead don't mean nothing don't mean nothing
And the things that I've done and the man I've become disappear
I wish I was anywhere but here.

There's always footsteps from behind me
Why don't they ever read the writing on the wall
And all the time I've spent rewinding
It might mean nothing, it might mean nothing at all

And all the things that I've said
And the road up ahead don't mean nothing don't mean nothing
And the things that I've done and the man I've become disappear
I wish I was anywhere but here.

The bed next to me is empty
Just like the, the shell I'm still trying to fill
The things put in life to tempt me
They won't ever, they might break my will

And all the things that I've said
And the road up ahead don't mean nothing don't mean nothing
And the things that I've done and the man I've become disappear
I wish I was anywhere but here. Wish I was anywhere but here.

"Black"
(originally by Pearl Jam)

"Black"
(originally by Pearl Jam)



Shades of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me, as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed
Has taken a turn

Oh... and all I taught her was everything
Oh... I know she gave me all that she wore

And now my bitter hands
Shake beneath the clouds
Of what was everything
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black
Tattooed everything

I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter
So why do I swear

Oh... and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can, drop away

And now my bitter hands
Cradle broken glass
Of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black
Tattooed everything
All the love gone bad
Turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll ever be... yeah

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, can't it be mine

"Country Boy"

"Country Boy"


Well I grew up down an old dirt road in a town you wouldn't know
My pops picked the place up for 1500 bucks back in 1964

My grandfather was a drinker back in the day he put 'em down
But a war is known to change a man and the whiskey is known to change a man

But, that's not me
I rarely drink from the bottle but I smoke a little weed
I still live in the sticks where you wouldn't go
In a town of 1200 off an old dirt road
And a country boy is all I'll ever be

Now it's been 12 years since I sold my soul to the devil in L.A.
He said "sign your name here on the dotted line and your songs they all will play"

He set up shop on sunset, he put me up at the marquee
He said "you wanna sell a million records boy you better listen to me"

He said "change your style, whiten your smile, you could lose a couple of pounds
And if you want to live this life, you better lose that wife, do you need your friends around?"

I said, no that's not me
Cause the biggest things in life are your friends and family
And I like my jeans and my old t-shirts
And a couple extra pounds never really hurt
Cause a country boy is all I'll ever be

Cause Hank taught me just how to stay alive
You'll never catch me out the house without my 9 or 45

I got a big orange tractor and a diesel truck
And my idea of heaven is chasing whitetail bucks
And as a country boy you know I can survive

Now two flags fly above my land that really sum up how I feel
One is the colors that fly high and proud
The red, the white, the blue
The other ones got a rattlesnake with a simple statement made
"Don't tread on me" is what it says and I'll take that to my grave
Because, this is me
I'm proud to be American and strong in my beliefs

And I've said it before but I'll say it again
Cause I've never needed government to hold my hand
And I've said it before but I'll say it again
Cause my family has always fought and died to save this land
And a country boy is all I'll ever be

I love my country, I love my guns, I love my family
I love the way it is now, and anybody that tries to change it
Has to come through me, that should be all our attitudes
'cause this is America and a country boy is good enough for me son

"Endless Summer"

"Endless Summer"


In the mornin' on a Saturday
I got my girls and we're skippin' town
In my '67 442 got the rag top down
Aldean's on the radio
Ain't it funny how they sing along
Makes me smile just a little bit because it's not a Miley Cyrus song

These are the moments we can share
Come on let me take you there

Loaded up and living right
Fast cars on a summer night
Breeze is warm and the moon is bright
This endless summer

Boogie boards and diggin' holes
Sand castles and fishin' poles
What a way to save my soul
This endless summer.

Now we're at our little getaway
Zoe go and grab the fishin' poles
I can't think of any better way for us to cleanse our souls
Fresh striper on the grill tonight
Cherrystones straight out the shell
Just another day in paradise, another story I can tell

These are the moments we can share
Come on let me take you there

Loaded up and living right
Fast cars on a summer night
Breeze is warm and the moon is bright
This endless summer

Boogie boards and diggin' holes
Sand castles and fishin' poles
What a way to save our souls
This endless summer.

Monday morning and it's gettin' late
There's no traffic at the tollbooth line
Aldean's on the radio and my three girls know every line

These are the moments we can share
Come on let me take you there

Loaded up and living right
Fast cars on a summer night
Breeze is warm and the music's right
This endless summer

Boogie boards and diggin' holes
Sand castles and fishin' poles
What a way to save our souls
These endless summer nights.

"Folded Flag"

"Folded Flag"


When I had seen you
You were shining like a diamond in that dress
We were young and in love and reckless
We were just two kids
When I went and signed my name

Now here I am
Just a few months later coming home to you
I'm flying with my brothers yeah we fought real hard
We're all packed up and headed home
And if you are reading this there'll come a time real soon
When family, friends and flowers fill the room

And two men with starched white gloves
Fold the colors 'til they touch
It's probably more than I deserve
But I'm proud to get this much
Sending all the love I ever had
Inside this folded flag

Now look at you
You're roundin' out but babe you wear it well
A little boy or girl it's still too soon to tell
Wish I could be there now to hold you both
And if you are reading this you probably about to cry
Running through your head a questions why

Has two men with starch white gloves
Fold the colors 'til they touch
It's probably more than I deserve
But I'm proud to get this much
Sending all the love I ever had
Inside this folded flag

It will sit here on the mantle
For many years to come
And every time you pass it by
I hope you feel my love

Two men with starch white gloves
Fold the colors 'til they touch
Probably more than I deserve
But I'm proud to get this much
I'm sending all the love I ever had
Inside this folded flag
Sending all the love I ever had
Inside this folded flag

"Forever"

"Forever"


Another cheap high rise hotel room
Another place another show
Another meaningless...
Destination with nowhere to go

Another Time to say "I love you"
Another Time to say "Good night"
Another Time to hear a dial tone
'Cause no one wants to fight
Why should we fight?

'Cause I can see it in your eyes...
Is the sparkle gone forever?
Don't say forever!

And I can feel it when we touch...
Is the fire out forever?
Don't say forever!

Another time to miss a birthday
Another time to miss my flight
I've missed so much, that I don't know what I have
And what I thought I might.
What I might 'cause

I can see it in your eyes
Is the sparkle gone forever?
Don't say forever!

And I can feel it when we touch
Is the fire out forever?
Don't say forever!

Now I'm lying beside you...
A stranger in your arms
We drift apart together
And come back like a storm...
Like a storm...

Another show up in Decatur
Another one in San Antone
Somewhere else in this Equator
Takes me far away from home
I'm coming home 'cause

I can see it in your eyes
The sparkle shines forever
This is forever

And I can feel it when we touch
The Fire burns forever
'Cause this is forever

I can see it in your eyes
The sparkle shines forever
This is forever

I can feel it when we touch
The Fire burns forever
This is forever

"God And Guns"

"God And Guns"


All the talkin' heads on TV, they sellin' their lies
Sayin' their way is better for livin' my life
And I'm fed up of them set up all high on that hill
They don't give a damn 'bout a common man, hell, they never will

So say what you want to 'bout the things I hold true
And the fabric that makes up this red, white, and blue
'Cause I'll fight for my country till the day that I'm done
I've still got my God and I've still got my gun

I was raised up to stand up for what I thought was right
A tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye
And do unto others as you'd be done to
If you do me wrong, mister, got it comin' to you

So you can say what you want to 'bout the things I hold true
And the fabric that makes up this red, white, and blue
'Cause I'll fight for my country till the day that I'm done
And I've still got my God and I've still got my gun

And if you want me, come get me, I ain't hard to find
A .45 on my hip and the Lord on my side

So you can say what you want to 'bout the things I hold true
And the fabric that makes up this red, white, and blue
And I'll fight for my country till the day that I'm done
And I've still got my God and I've still got my gun

And I'll fight for my country till the day that I'm done
And I'll still have my God and I'll still have my gun

"Grandaddy's Gun"

"Grandaddy's Gun"


It sits above the mantel on a couple rusty nails
It ain't worth a lot of money and it damn sure ain't for sale
The good Lord only knows all the stories it could tell
My Granddaddy's gun

He bought it new out of the Sears and Roebuck catalog
And it shot a many shells over the back of an old bird dog
It backed a burglar down when grandma took the safety off
Granddaddy's gun.

[Chorus:]
It's just an old double-barrel twelve
The stock is cracked and it kicks like hell
It wouldn't mean what means to me to no one
I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder,
"A gun's like a woman, son, it's all how you hold her."
He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt
And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson
My Granddaddy's gun

He handed it to me on the day I turned thirteen
With a half-shot box of shells and a kit to keep it clean
I keep a picture in the case of that sweet old man and me
Granddaddy's gun

[Chorus:]
It's just an old double-barrel twelve
The stock is cracked and it kicks like hell
It wouldn't mean what means to me to no one
I can still hear his voice when I put it to my shoulder,
"A gun's like a woman, son, it's all how you hold her."
He taught me a whole lot more than how to hunt
And one of these days I'll pass it on to my grandson
My Granddaddy's gun

There's a long beard hanging on the living room wall
That I got with a box call
And Granddaddy's gun
There's a shot up stop sign on forty nine
That me and Billy Joe shot up one night
With Granddaddy's gun

It sits above the mantel on a couple rusty nails
It ain't worth a lot of money and it damn sure ain't for sale
