"Celebrity"

"Celebrity"


Someday I'm gonna be famous, do I have talent, well no
These days you don't really need it thanks to reality shows
Can't wait to date a supermodel, can't wait to sue my dad
Can't wait to wreck a Ferrari on my way to rehab

[1st Chorus]
'Cause when you're a celebrity
It's adios reality
You can act just like a fool
People think you're cool
Just 'cause you're on TV
I can throw a major fit
When my latte isn't just how I like it
When they say I've gone insane
I'll blame it on the fame
And the pressures that go with
Being a celebrity

I'll get to cry to Barbara Walters when things don't go my way
And I'll get community service no matter which law I break
I'll make the supermarket tabloids, they'll write some awful stuff
But the more they run my name down the more my price goes up

[2nd Chorus]
'Cause when you're a celebrity
It's adios reality
No matter what you do
People think you're cool
Just 'cause you're on TV
I can fall in and out of love
Have marriages that barely last a month
When they go down the drain
I'll blame it on the fame
And say it's just so tough
Being a celebrity

[Bridge]
So let's hitch up the wagons and head out west
To the land of the fun and the sun
We'll be real world bachelor jackass millionaires
Hey hey, Hollywood, here we come

[3rd Chorus]
'Cause when you're a celebrity
It's adios reality
No matter what you do
People think you're cool
Just 'cause you're on TV
Being a celebrity
Yeah celebrity

"Cloud Of Dust"

"Cloud Of Dust"


West Texas forecast more of the same
Sunny and mild no chance of rain
That old John Deere tractor ain't moved in days
Oh, but he's out there climbin' back on
Because he's yet to admit that his crops are all gone

She stares out the window fightin' back tears
And watches him wastin' his time in the fields
They're havin' problems payin' the bills
And she knows that it won't be long
Before the bank finally places a lien on the farm

[Chorus]
And the tractor keeps rollin'
The dust rises high
Creating the only cloud in the sky
He's holdin' his ground
But it's gettin' tough
He's keepin' his faith
In the Lord up above
And prayin' for rain
Through a cloud of dust

Yesterday somethin' in town caught his eye
The old hardware store had a help wanted sign
He thought about stoppin' but he drove on by
'Cause he just can't bear to let go
After all it's the only life he's ever known

[Chorus]

Yeah, he's holdin' his ground
But it's gettin' tough
He's keepin' his faith
In the Lord up above
And prayin' for rain
Through a cloud of dust

West Texas forecast more of the same
Sunny and mild no chance of rain

"Collision Of Worlds"
(feat. Robbie Williams)

"Collision Of Worlds"
(feat. Robbie Williams)



At the first sign of morning light ol' glory's in the sky
Across the pond, it's afternoon, and the Union Jack flies high
We're on our first cup of coffee
We're on our third cup of tea
And we can't pretend to live on different planets, you and me

In this collision of worlds
Watch the new day dawn on a distant shore
In this collision of worlds
Oh, you can't sit this out no more

Abbey Road, Route 66,
CIA to the MI-6, right lane, left lane,
Metric, imperial, pounds, dollars
Howdy, cheerio,
That V8 growl to a V12 scream
Hail to the chief, Well, God save the Queen!
Cops, Bobbies, Tabasco, Wasabi
Pistachio... Ice cream!

In this collision of worlds
Well it's too late, you can't stop it now
In this collision of worlds
Yeah, find you a place and just watch it now, watch it now!

Yeah, you're a good ol' boy
Well, you're a decent bloke
I say it's irony, I say it's a joke
When I look around, now I can see
We ain't so different, you and me

Meat and potatoes, bangers and mash
Dollars, pounds, dosh, cash
Autobahn, to the rising sun
The I10, to the M1
Congress, Parliament, President, The Queen!
Petrol, you say gasoline
Now grab your bird, and get your girl
Now it's a small world!

Collision of worlds
Watch the new day dawn on a distant shore
In this collision of worlds
No, you can't sit this out no more
It's a collision of worlds
It's too late and you can't stop it now
Collision of worlds
Find you a place and watch it now

"Come On In"
(feat. Buck Owens)

"Come On In"
(feat. Buck Owens)



1, 2
Got up this morning, headed down the road
I saw this pilgrim with a heavy load
Were my eyes lyin' at what I'd seen?
Hello, stranger. Remember me?

Hang your coat on that nail
kick your shoes off let 'em sail
I set my suitcase down in the den
Welcome stranger, come on in

Come on in, come on in
It's so good to see you again
It don't matter where you been
welcome stranger, come on in

I'll make the coffee, I'll get the cream
We'll open up a bottle of old Jim Beam
We'll hoot and holler to your favorite song
Welcome stranger, welcome home

I sure did miss you there's no doubt
The days got longer after you checked out
But the pain got stronger when it kicked in
Welcome stranger, come on in

Come on in, come on in
It's so good to see you again
It don't matter where you been
welcome stranger, come on in

It don't matter where you been
welcome stranger, come on in
welcome stranger, come on in

"Come On Over Tonight"

"Come On Over Tonight"



You know I'm stubborn, set in my ways, said I'd never
Fall in love, used all the old cliches
But just now when you called and my heart rate hit the roof
I realized it's time to eat my words and face the truth

So come on over tonight we'll sit on the swing
Watch the pigs fly by flappin' their brand new wings
Just sit back and relax and watch me eat my hat
While the oak trees sprout dollar bills
And I look you in the eye
To finally say the words I swore I'd never say
In my whole life
So come on over tonight

I called my buddies, they're comin' too
After the way I ran my mouth they can't
Believe it's true
They're bringin' pizza and sweet tea
And I hope that you don't mind
But they said they've gotta see this
And they promise to be quiet

So come on over tonight we'll sit on the swing
Watch the pigs fly by flappin' their brand new wings
Just sit back and relax and watch me eat my hat
While a big ol' bolt of lightning
Strikes me not just once, but twice
As I say the words I swore I'd never say
In my whole life
Yeah, come on over tonight

Me fallin' in love, that's one of those things
That I swore would never come true
But I'm startin' to think that nothin' is impossible now
That I found you, nothin'

Yeah, come on over tonight we'll sit on the swing
Watch the pigs fly by flappin' their brand new wings
Just sit back and relax and watch me eat my hat
See the premiere performance of demons on ice
As I say the words I swore I'd never say
In my whole life

Say, come on over
Hey, come on over
Said, come on over tonight

"Country Nation"

"Country Nation"



We work in the factories and the fields
Assembly lines, the coal mines
And the steel mills
That's what we do but there's more to us than that
If you wanna know who we are
It's on the logos of our caps

We're Mountaineers, we're Volunteers
We're the Tide that rolls, we're Seminoles
We're a herd of Longhorn steer
We drive Ford and Chevrolet
Cheer 24 and 88
We crank up our music Friday nights
On two thousand country stations
Yeah, we're one big country nation, that's right

We might fix your water pump or your AC
Bring your apple pie and fill your glass of tea
We'll take that FedEx package to your door
But underneath that apron or that uniform

We're Wildcats, we're Wolverines
We're Tigers, Buckeyes, Bruins
Bulldogs, Hogs and Hurricanes
We pray before we race
Cheer 14 and 48
And we drink ice-cold beer on Friday nights
Yeah, we're one big country nation, that's right

We're all across the map, down city streets and old dirt roads
We're the fabric of this nation
And we're a nation all our own

We're Mountaineers, we're Volunteers
Blue Devils, Heels and Rebels
Fighting Irish and Cavaliers
We soup up our Chevrolets
Cheer 24 and 88
We crank up the same songs Friday night
On two thousand country stations
Yeah, we're one big country nation, that's right

"Cover Girl"

"Cover Girl"



Page three of the County Tribune
There's a story about the fair and a picture of you
In black and white, blue ribbon, best in show
Already know what happens now
The editor of Vogue rolls through town
Sees that picture, tracks you down
And the next thing you know

They're gonna put you on the cover, girl
And you outshine them other girls
And everybody will discover, girl
What I already know
There ain't another girl
Anywhere in the whole world
As pretty as you
The only trouble, girl
Is that you'd have to go
And blow your cover, girl

Before long, the secret's out
And there's paparazzi outside your house
And peace and quiet and going out
That's a thing of the past
Red carpet, you're lookin' hot
And I think I am too but I guess I'm not
'Cause it's “Hey hillbilly, get outta the shot”
As the cameras flash

As they put you on the cover, girl
And you outshine them other girls
And everybody will discover, girl
What I already know
Nah, there ain't another girl
Anywhere in the whole world
As pretty as you
The only trouble girl
Is that you'd have to go
And blow your cover, girl

They're gonna put you on the cover, girl
And them other girls
Will discover, girl
What I already, I already know
There ain't another girl
Anywhere in the whole world
As pretty as you
The only trouble, girl
Is that you'd have to go
And blow your cover, girl

"Crushin' It"

"Crushin' It"



I sure could use an “Atta boy” or a big ol' high five
I'd love to hear “You're killin' it dude”, it's been a long time
Since I hit one out of the park or nailed it as they say
I guess I've been in a dry spell but that's about to change ‘cause

Every week has a weekend
By this time Friday night
I'll be done with my third can of cold Bud Light
And I'll be crushin' it
Yeah, I'll be crushin' it

Let's say your baby's mad ‘cause you told her that you'd hang some pictures for her
You know the ones she framed from late last spring of you and her in Florida
You're up on the ladder when it shatters into smithereens
She shakes her head and looks at you and says “Ain't you good for anything?”
And you say

Every week has a weekend
By this time Friday night
If you want a margarita
I'll get tequila and ice
And I'll be crushin' it
With a cold one in my other hand
And I'll be crushin' it

When I'm finished with my can
I can stomp it with my boot
Punch it with my fist
Smash it on my forehead
Yeah, I got this
I'll be crushin' it
Oh, I'll be crushin' it

I figured this out in college walking past them Gothic columns
That I was gonna probably wind up somewhere near the bottom
I was never gonna be the best or brightest guy around
But like the great George freaking Strait, I'm the king of gettin' unwound

And every week has a weekend
By this time Friday night
I'll be done with my third can of cold Bud Light
And I'll be crushin' it
Every week has a weekend
Yeah, I'll be crushin' it
By this time Friday night
Oh, I'll be crushin' it
I'll be done with my third can
Oh, I'll be crushin' it
Of cold Bud Light
And I'll be crushin' it
I'll be crushin' it

"Death Of A Married Man"
(feat. Eric Idle)

"Death Of A Married Man"
(feat. Eric Idle)



I had a heart attack
(He had a heart attack)
While I was playing charades
Everybody yelled
"Heart attack!"
(Pledge of allegiance)
But it was too late

Harvey Bodine
Died, died at 11:09
And he left behind
A miserable wife
And at 11:14
His heart came back on the screen
Thanks to that defib machine
He came back to life

Oh but those five minutes were heaven
A peace unlike he'd ever known
And as he came back to the living
He thought "Please God, don't make me go
Back to life"

They told him what happened
How that green line had flattened
Oh, Harvey just started laughing
He said, "You're telling me I died"
(You're telling me I died?)

Aw, and he thought about that woman
How she treated him for years
All the yellin' and the screamin'
And the nagging and the tears
And the way it wasn't really all that bad
When he lost his life

Because those five minutes were heaven
A peace unlike he'd ever known
And now he was back with the living
And he found himself reaching for the phone

He called his lawyer, he called his priest
Told 'em bout how they'd restarted his heart
And how his wedding vows were technically
'Til death do us part

You'll probably judge me and so be it
But you know boys, here's how I see it

Harvey Bodine
Died, died at 11:09
And he left behind
A miserable wife
Oh, but at 11:14
My heart came back on that screen
Thanks to that defib machine
I've come back to life

"Death Of A Single Man"

"Death Of A Single Man"



Remember when we got the news
Confirming our worst fears
I said he wouldn’t make it six months
And others gave him a year

And sure enough last Saturday
We paid our last respects
He left us here still in this life
And he’s gone on to the next

I’d never seen him wear a tie
But he looked so natural, almost lifelike
The preacher spoke, his mother cried
When he said “Son, you may now kiss the bride”

Everyone cheered, I thought how odd
I didn’t understand
Why with champagne and cake we celebrate
The death of a single man

So many flowers, he was so loved
Prior to the bride
As a matter of fact
The maid of honor should be disqualified

To all his friends, it’s a wake-up call
If it happened to him
It can happen to us all
Nothing says it’s over man
Like a bad 80’s cover band
How can we dance to My Sharona
At the death of a single man

He was so young
So full of dreams
Before the day he fell
Now he’s gone on to a better place
Or possibly to hell

Now here we are, seems so unfair
It’s poker night and there’s one empty chair
So many things we’re gonna miss
His happy smile and that great laugh of his

I think of him in the afterwife, life
I guess all good things must end
So with Jack and Coke, we’ll make a toast
To the death of a single man
