"I Don't Even Know Your Name"

"I Don't Even Know Your Name"



Well I was sitting in a roadhouse down on Highway 41
You were wiping off some ketchup on a table that was done
I knew you didn't see me, I was in a corner booth
Of course you weren't my waitress, mine was missing her front tooth
So I flagged you down for coffee, but I couldn't say a thing
But I'm in love with you, baby, and I don't even know your name

I'm in love with you baby, I don't even know your name
I've never been too good with all those sexual games
So maybe it's just better if we leave it this way
I'm in love with you, baby, and I don't even know your name

So I ordered straight tequila, a little courage in a shot
And I asked you for a date and then I asked to tie the knot
I got a little wasted, yeah, I went a little far
I finally got to hug you when you helped me to my car
The last thing I remember I heard myself say
I'm in love with you, baby, and I don't even know your name

I'm in love with you baby, I don't even know your name
I've never been too good with all those sexual games
So maybe it's just better if we leave it this way
I'm in love with you, baby, and I don't even know your name

The next thing I remember, I was hearing wedding bells
Standing by a woman in a long white lacy veil
I raised the veil and she smiled at me without her left front tooth
And I said where the hell am I and just who the hell are you?
She said, I was your waitress and our last name's now the same
'Cause I'm married to you, baby, and I don't even know your name

Yeah, I'm married to a waitress, I don't even know her name
I've never been too good at all those sexual games
I never thought my love life would quite turn out this way
Hey, I'm married to a waitress and I don't even know her name

"I Don't Need The Booze (To Get A Buzz On)"

"I Don't Need The Booze (To Get A Buzz On)"



Well I've been known to tie one on and honky tonk 'til half past three
But the party don't get started 'til my baby pours her love on me
She's a hundred proof, Lord she's smooth
She makes me moan all night long
So I don't need the booze to get a buzz on

I've tried it all from Tennessee Whiskey
To Ozark Mountain Moonshine
But it's her sweet love that packs the punch
And keeps me higher than a Georgia pine
My Southern Comfort don't come in a bottle
I get a double shot of love homegrown
So I don't need the booze to get a buzz on

My little country girl makes my head whirl and my knees begin to shake
I can't walk a chalk line, I ain't a-talking or a-thinking straight
Yeah I'm hooked on my baby's love
There ain't nothing in a jug this strong
So I don't need the booze to get a buzz on

I've tried it all from Tennessee Whiskey
To Ozark Mountain Moonshine
But it's her sweet love that packs the punch
And keeps me higher than a Georgia pine
My Southern Comfort don't come in a bottle
I get a double shot of love homegrown
So I don't need the booze to get a buzz on

I wear a Blue Ribbon grin every now and then
But I don't need that to get stoned
No I don't need the booze to get a buzz on
No I don't need the booze to get a buzz on

"I Love To Tell The Story"

"I Love To Tell The Story"


I love to tell the story
Of unseen things above,
Of Jesus and his glory,
Of Jesus and his love.
I love to tell the story,
Because I know 'tis true;
It satisfies my longings
As nothing else can do.

[Refrain:]
I love to tell the story,
'twill be my theme in glory,
To tell the old, old story
Of Jesus and his love.

I love to tell the story,
For those who know it best
Seem hungering and thirsting
To hear it like the rest.
And when, in scenes of glory,
I sing the new, new song,
'twill be the old, old story
That I have loved so long.
[Refrain]

"I Only Want You For Christmas"


The snow is falling It's Christmas Eve
Presents are wrapped Under the tree

"I Slipped And Fell In Love"

"I Slipped And Fell In Love"



A drunk man walking down a rainy street
A wood floor and new socks on your bare feet
You look down and suddenly you're looking up
Whoops, I slipped and fell in love

A bald tire running on an icy road
A steep hill underneath a foot of snow
A greased pig fallen off a pickup truck
Whoops, I slipped and fell in love

I hope that you're feeling the way that I feel
It's just like flying but you're standing still
The birds and the bees are sure powerful stuff
Whoops, I slipped and fell in love

An ice cube hiding on your kichen floor
A bad step leading up to your back door
How'd I wind up on my butt
Whoops, I slipped and feel in love

I hope that you're feeling the way that I feel
It's just like flying but you're standing still
The birds and the bees are sure powerful stuff
Whoops, I slipped and fell in love

I hope that you're feeling the way that I feel
It's just like flying but you're standing still
The birds and the bees are sure powerful stuff
Whoops, I slipped and fell in love

Help, I've fallen I can't getup
Whoops, I slipped and fell in love

"I Still Like Bologna"

"I Still Like Bologna"


There's
Satellite communications
Long distance
Internet relations
The world's
A little faster every day
I know it's all
Well and good
And I don't embrace it
Like I should
But I wouldn't wanna go
Backwards even if I could

[Chorus:]
But I still
Like Bologna
On white bread
Now and then
And the sound
Of a whippoorwill
Down a country road
The grass between my toes
And that sunset sinking low
And a good woman's love
To hold me close
I like my 50 inch
HD plasma

Feels like
They just reach out
And grab you
500 channels
At my command
I finally gave in
And got a cell phone
That I hardly
Ever seem to turn on
I guess I never had
That much to say

[Chorus]

I got a laptop
That sits on a desk
I don't use it much
Except to check
On some ole car
From yesterday
I kinda like
That music thang
You just download 'em
And you can save about
Every song
That's ever been made

[Chorus]

Well I guess
What I've been
Trying to say
This digital world
Is okay
It makes life better
Iin a lot of ways
But it can't make
The smell of spring
Or sunshine or lots
Of little things
We take for granted
Every day

[Chorus]

Yeah, Bologna
A woman's love
And a good cell phone

"I Still Love You"

"I Still Love You"


The door still creaks, the roof still leaks
When the rain comes fallin' down
The dog still barks at every car that comes around
My boss at work, he's still a jerk
That ain't nothing new
I'm such a dope, my heart's still broke
'Cause I still love you

[Chorus:]
My favorite picture of you is still on my windowsill
You wrote to me don't ever change
And I'm afraid I never will

When day is done the night still comes
And aaaaaai still toss and turn
I still try to have some pride,
While the bridge still burns
My arms still ache, my heart still waits
And I know there's no use
I'm still a fool and it's so cruel
'Cause I still love you

[Chorus:]
My favorite picture of you is still on my windowsill
You wrote to me don't ever change
And I'm afraid I never will

The door still creaks, the roof still leaks
But that ain't nothing new
Thanks for the call, I guess that's all
Except I still love you...

"I Want To Stroll Over Heaven With You"

"I Want To Stroll Over Heaven With You"



If I survey all the good things that come to me from above
If I count all the blessings from the storehouse of love
I'd simply ask for the favor of him beyond mortal king
And I'm sure he would grant it again
I want to stroll over Heaven with you some glad day
When all our troubles and heartaches are vanished away
Then we'll enjoy the beauty where all things are new
I want to stroll over Heaven with you

So many places of beauty we long to see here below
But time and treasures have kept us from making plans as you know
But come the morning of rapture together we'll stand a new
While I stroll over Heaven with you
I want to stroll over Heaven with you some glad day
When all our troubles and heartaches are vanished away
Then we'll enjoy the beauty where all things are new
I want to stroll over Heaven with you

"I Wish I Could Back Up"

"I Wish I Could Back Up"


I wish I could back up and start all over
Cause now I'd know better the best way to love her
The words I would tell her the time I would give her
I wish I could back up and start all over

[CHORUS:]
Time takes you places you never knew you'd be goin'
It softens the edges of memories you're towin'
It changes the reasons
You wanted to hold her
I wish I could back up and start all over

I wish I could back up and start all over
I'd make the first time feel like forever
Not to be younger may be just to be smarter
I wish I could back up and start all over
Time takes you places you never knew you'd be goin'
It softens the edges of memories you're towin'
It changes the reasons
You wanted to hold her
I wish I could back up and start all over
I wish I could back up and start all over
Days I would take back nights i'd wanna make longer
Moments i'd never just throw over my shoulder
I wish I could back up and start all over

[BRIDGE]
But it's never too late to wanna do better
Love's never easy, changes just like the weather
Some days it's raining some are sunny and blue
There's never perfect but there's faithful and true
Time takes you places you never knew you'd be goin'
It softens the edges of memories you're towin'
It changes the reasons
You wanted to hold her
I wish I could back up and start all over
I wish I could back up and start all over

"I'd Love You All Over Again"

"I'd Love You All Over Again"


Has it been ten years
Since we said "I do"
I've always heard marriage
Made one seem like two
But you're looking better
Than you did back then
You still make this old heart give in

[Chorus:]
And if I had it to do all over
I'd do it all over again
If tomorrow I found one more chance to begin
I'd love you all over again

The preacher man said
"Til death do us part"
That seemed like forever
To a young man's heart
Now the days seem much shorter
The longer we love
And the memories just keep adding up

[Chorus:]
And if I had it to do all over
I'd still do it all over again
If tomorrow I found one more chance to begin
I'd love you all over again

If tomorrow I found
One more chance to begin
I'd love you all over again...
