"Win Life"

"Win Life"


Ain't tryna to be hero
Just tryna cash a paycheck
'Til the clock hits zero
Make the most of these days left
Found a few shortcuts
Picked up a couple secrets
Don't have it figured out yet
But I've learned the hard way, it's...

More drunk in love and habits kicked
More miracles than magic tricks
More green grass grows, and green old dollar bills
More babies raised, and raising hell
More get back up, sometimes you fail
Well, I don't know it all
Hey, but I know how it feels
To be the guy that's trying to come back from behind
Just trying to win life

Man, in a couple scrapes, I barely got out of
Got a couple scars, I kinda ain't proud of
But you can't be afraid to drive until the gas can's empty
And if you're glass is half full, you better make damn sure it's whiskey

And be more drunk in love and habits kicked
More miracles than magic tricks
More green grass grows, and green old dollar bills
More babies raised, and raising hell
More get back up, sometimes you fail
Well, I don't know it all
Hey, but I know how it feels
To be the guy that's trying to come back from behind
Watching those numbers on the scoreboard clock unwind
Still trying to win life

But if you lose yourself in someone else
Than maybe you don't lose at all

Just be more more drunk in love and habits kicked
More miracles than magic tricks
More green grass grows, and green old dollar bills
More babies raised, and raising hell
More get back up, sometimes you fail
Well, I don't know it all
Hey, but I know how it feels
To be the guy that's trying to come back from behind
And that hail Mary's coming down on the five yard line
And I'm trying to win life

Just trying to win life
I'll be trying to win life

"Ya'll Can Have This Town"

"Ya'll Can Have This Town"


[Verse 1]
One pool hall and a rundown cotton gin.
"Come Back Soon" hand painted on a grain bin.
We got a hardware store at the intersection,
Dirt roads runnin' in all directions.
I love this place.
But I gotta go,
Cause she is gone.
[Chorus]
Ya'll can have this town
And what I don't grab on my way out.
Cause the only thing I need
Ain't here. She's gone and found her way
To another life in a better place.
But I hear she's missin' me.
Ya'll can have this town.
[Verse 2]
Bet there ain't a single place to fish up there.
No small talk or sweet tea, but I don't care.
It's gonna be worth every thing I have to leave
When I feel her loving arms on me.
Right there's the Interstate.
And I'm turnin' on.
Looks like I'm gone.
[Chorus]
Everybody says I'll be back,
Brother don't hold your breath on that
Cause as long as she ain't here.
[Chorus 2]
Ya'll can have this town
And what I don't grab on my way out.
Cause the only thing I need
Ain't here. She's gone and found her way
To another life in a better place.
But I hear she's missin' me
Ya'll can have this town.

"You And The Beach"

"You And The Beach"


My shoulders still burn, my head still hurts
There's sand from your shoes in my floorboard, and lipstick on a straw,
Your crying eyes are painted in my rear view
My speakers still blast that song that you turned me on to
It's like that blue water ran up the highway
That salt air is pulling on my tail gate
And that sunset is still hanging on
I left the lights, the cars, the parties on the strip
The up-all-nights and your sunrise kiss
Yeah, I was a fool to think I could just move on
'Cause you and the beach followed me home
Still hear your words saying we can't do this
'Cause you're up there and I'm down here
Baby let's go on and face it
It's like that blue water ran up the highway
That salt air is pulling on my tail gate
And that sunset is still hanging on
I left the lights, the cars, the parties on the strip
The up-all-nights and your sunrise kiss
Yeah, I was a fool to think I could just move on
'Cause you and the beach followed me home
I left the lights, the cars, the parties on the strip
The up-all-nights and your sunrise kiss
Yeah, I was a fool to think I could just move on
'Cause there you are everytime I close my eyes
It's like we never even said goodbye
It don't feel like you're really gone
You and the beach followed me home

"You Don't Know Jack"

"You Don't Know Jack"


He asked me for a dollar, I said "Go get a job"
I turned up my collar and started walkin' off
He said "I don't blame you, I know what you think.
I'd just spend your money, to buy another drink"

But you don't know Jack,
Double shot, eighty proof, on the rocks,
Until you've lost it all.
And you can't go back
To your life, and your kids, and your ex-wife
With just a telephone call.
If you think it's just a bottle,
In an old brown paper sack
You don't know Jack.

He showed me a picture, of two little girls
Wearin' Easter dresses, hair done up in curls
He said "God bless their mamma,
She said I couldn't stay.
And buddy if you're wonderin',
How could I throw it all away"

You don't know Jack,
Double shot, eighty proof, on the rocks,
Until you've lost it all.
And you can't go back
To your life, and your kids, and your ex-wife
With just a telephone call.
If you think it's just a bottle,
In an old brown paper sack
You don't know Jack.

If you never felt the fire,
Running through your veins,
If you've never seen the devil,
Face to face...

You don't know Jack,
Double shot, eighty proof, on the rocks,
Until you've lost it all.
So brother just be glad, and tonight
Hold your kids, kiss your wife
And when you talk to God,
Count up all your blessings
And thank the good Lord that
You don't know Jack.
You don't know Jack.

"You Look Like Rain"

"You Look Like Rain"


You and your sunday mornings
Me and my saturday nights
You and all your colors
Me and my black and whites
You and your lace and cotton
Up against my whiskey skin
Saving me the way you always do again
Cause I'm hell up here on the high wire
You're the hallelujah kind
I'm the dust that spins
In a gust of wind that's blowing by
I'm a desert dry
And in my thirsty eyes
You look like rain
You and your stained glass windows
Me and my cracked windshield
You and your quiet beauty
Me and my can't sit still
Cause I'm hell up here on the high wire
You're the hallelujah kind
I'm the dust that spins
In a gust of wind that's blowing by
I'm a desert dry
And in my thirsty eyes
You look like rain
Girl I'm hell up here on the high wire
You're the hallelujah kind
I'm the dust that spins
In a gust of wind that's blowing by
I'm a desert dry
And in my thirsty eyes
You look like rain
You look like rain
You look like rain
You look like rain
You look like rain
You're my sweet rain

"You Make Me Want To"

"You Make Me Want To"


You make me want to hold you like a hammock on a summer day
Tell you how I’m gonna take your cares away
You make me want to
You make me want to roll down the river and around the bend
Love you like a story with a happy ending
You make me want to
You can blame it on my southern boy ways
Why I’m always running away
I don’t know if I can ever change
But you make me want to
You make me want to
You make me want to hang up the phone ride across town
Walk through you door and lay it down
Kiss you ‘til you feel the truth
You make me want to
You can blame it on my southern boy ways
Why I’m always running away
I don’t know if I can ever change
But you make me want to
You make me want to
Well I never met a girl like you
That’s got me thinking like I do
To hang up my hat and kick off my boots
But you make me want to
You make me want to
You make me want to
Baby you make me want to

"Your Goodbye Wasn't Good Enough"

"Your Goodbye Wasn't Good Enough"


[Verse 1]
Standin' right there, awake and aware,
I heard the words right off your lips.
The meanin' was clear, I saw the tears,
But somehow the message didn't click.
The losin' you part, the break in my heart, just didn't stick.
[Chorus 1]
Girl your, goodbye wasn't good enough.
I'm as in to you as I ever was.
If you'd a done it right, then why ain't I the love.
Must be because, your goodbye wasn't good enough.
[Verse 2]
Some look in your eye, says there's still time,
Maybe there's one more last chance left.
What you didn't say, when you turned away,
Made me hang on by one more thread.
That shadow of hope, that whisper of smoke, is still in my head.
[Chorus 2]
Girl your, goodbye wasn't good enough.
I'm as in to you as I ever was.
If you'd a done it right, then why ain't I the love.
Must be because, your goodbye wasn't
Good enough to make me see, I don't need you, and you don't need me.
[Chorus 1]

"Your Mama Should've Named You Whiskey"

"Your Mama Should've Named You Whiskey"


Just a little taste won't hurt at all
But once I get a sip, I know I'm gonna wanna drink it gone, all gone
90 proof is an understatement
I get around you and I'm way past wasted
I can't think at all
Your mama should've named you whiskey
I never should've let you kiss me
And every time you leave it hits me
Your mama should've named you whiskey
Girl, you got a smile like a devil on my shoulder
Tempting me sayin', honey come over right now, right now
I know I shouldn't wanna, but I think I'm probably gonna
Even though I know I'm gonna be wakin' up hurtin' in the morning
Shoulda come with a warning
Your mama should've named you whiskey
I never should've let you kiss me
Yeah, and every time you leave it hits me
Your mama should've named you whiskey
I'm addicted girl, I'm hangin; on
I'm a fool in love, I'm long past gone
Yeah, so, come on
Your mama should've named you whiskey
I never should've let you kiss me
Oh, and every time you leave it hits me
Oh baby, your mama should've named you whiskey
I'm addicted girl, such a fool
I'm addicted girl
Such a fool
