(originally by The Marshall Tucker Band)

"Heard It In A Love Song"
(originally by The Marshall Tucker Band)

I ain't never been with a woman
Long enough for my boots to get old
We've been together so long now they both need resoled
If I ever settle down you'd be my kind
And it's a good time for me to head on down the line

Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Can't be wrong

I'm the kinda man likes to get away
Like to start dreamin about tomorrow today
Never said that I love you, even thought it's so
Where's that duffle bag of mine it's time to go

I'm gonna be leaving at the break of dawn
Wish you could come but I don't need no woman tagging along
So I'll sneak out that door couldn't stand to see you cry
I'd stay another year if I saw a tear drop in your eye

I never had a damn thing but what I had I had to leave it behind
You're the hardest thing I ever tried to get off my mind
Always something greener on the other side of that hill
I was born a wrangler and a rambler and I guess I always will

"Hello Honky Tonk"

"Hello Honky Tonk"

How's the world been treatin' you
Lord how long has it been
We got some catchin' up to do
Good to see you my old friend.

Hello honky tonk, long time no see
Never knew that old jukebox could ever sound so sweet
How I missed your neon lights, they sure are a welcome sight
Goodbye lonely nights
Hello honky tonk.

I'm glad nobody's patched that hole
Where my head went through the wall
'Cause I just may head that way again
Before we reach last call
Don't guess I was cut out for
That old domestic life
When she told me to hit the door
I hit yours tonight.

Hello honky tonk, long time no see
Never knew that old jukebox could ever sound so sweet
How I missed your neon lights, they sure are a welcome sight
Goodbye lonely nights
Hello honky tonk.

Hello honky tonk, long time no see
Never knew that old jukebox could ever sound so sweet
How I missed your neon lights, they sure are a welcome sight
Goodbye lonely nights
Hello honky tonk.

Who cares who's right or wrong
The pain will soon be gone
Goodbye wont hurt too long
Hello honky tonk...

"Hey You There In The Mirror"

"Hey You There In The Mirror"

Hey you there in the mirror
I didn't know you had a smile
I've watched the canyons on your face
Grow deeper with the miles
With your heart barely beating
And your spirit black and blue
I was sure that you were headed
For an early waterloo

Hey you there in the mirror
What happened to your frown
That twinkle in those smiling eyes
Is shining like a crown
You must have met somebody
With compassion in her heart
Who looked upon your Haggard face
And saw a work of art

Hey you there in the mirror
Well aint you lookin' proud
And not long ago you harbored thoughts
Of throwin' in the towel
Each day you're feelin' stronger
There's new life in your blood
Why I thought that weathered face
Would look so good in love

Hey you there in the mirror
Well aint you lookin' proud
And not long ago you harbored thoughts
Of throwin' in the towel
Each day you're feelin' stronger
There's new life in your blood
Why I thought that weathered face
Would look so good in love

"Honky Tonk Heroes"

"Honky Tonk Heroes"

Low down leaving sun, I've done did everything that needs done
Woe is me, why can't I see, I best be leaving well enough alone
Them neon light nights, couldn't stay out of fights
They keep a hauntin' me and memories
There is one in every crowd, for cryin' out loud
Why was it always turnin' out to be me.
Where does it go, the good Lord only knows
It seems like it was just the other day
I was down at Green Gables, hawkin' them tables
And generally blowin' all my hard earned pay.
Piano rolled blues, danced holes in my shoes
There weren't another other way to be
For loveable losers, and no account boozers
And honky tonk heroes like me...

"Hot"

"Hot"

Air ain't moving, not a hint of a breeze
Lord, it must be a hundred degrees
Bad part is, it's only ten o'clock
Man, it's hot

Think I'll go down to the store and get a cold drink
Scald my legs on that black vinyl seat
You can see the heat rising off the parking lot
It's flat out hot

It's hot, and I ain't just talking
Saw a dog chasing a cat
And they were both walking
They'll blame it on El Niño, but it's not
It's just plain old hot

Bare foot kids on a blacktop road
Tip-toeing like they're walking on coals
Little feet are frying like tater-tots
Have mercy, it's hot

Talk about drought, man it ain't rained a lick
Caught a catfish this morning, it was covered in ticks
September's all the hope we got
And I'm here to tell you, it's hot

It's hot, and I ain't just talking
Saw a dog chasing a cat
And they were both walking
They'll blame it on El Niño, but it's not
We know it's not
No, it's just plain old...

Hotter than a biscuit in a cast-iron skillet
It's just plain old
Hotter than Cindy Crawford in a cedar wood sauna
It's just plain old hot

"I Don't Want To Miss A Thing"
(originally by Aerosmith)

"I Don't Want To Miss A Thing"
(originally by Aerosmith)

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Where every moment spent with you
Is a moment I treasure

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Lying close to you, feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what your dreaming
Wondering if it's me your seeing
And then I kiss your eyes, and thank God we're together
I just wanna stay with you
In this moment forever

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you
And I don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
Well, I just wanna be with you, right here with you
Just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you
And I don't wanna miss a thing

"I Drew Me"

"I Drew Me"

Little Billy drew a firefighter
Mary drew a doctor
Bobby he just drew a ball
We all knew he'd play soccer
Richard drew a race car
And Taylor drew a guitar on her knees
And I drew me.

With you
Your eyes are as far as I could see
Of all the things a boy would want to be
Back then I knew
So I drew me with you.

Now, Billy ain't no firefighter
And Mary's not a doctor
Bobby got to college but
Tore his knee up playing soccer
Richard watches NASCAR
And Tayor's raising babies on her knee
And as for me.

I'm with you
Your eyes are as far as I could see
No one wound up what they thought they'd be
But me I knew back when I drew me
With you
Your eyes are as far as I could see
Of all the things a boy would want to be
Back then I knew
So I drew me with you...

"I Just Wanted You To Know"

"I Just Wanted You To Know"

Are you alone---can you talk to an old friend
Right or wrong---I had to hear your voice again
Unwritten law, protocol
Says to leave the past alone

I just wanted you to know
Sometimes driving home at night
I let your memory take control
And you're sitting by my side
I turn up the radio
And cruise down old route 59
And girl it's solid gold, well, I'll let you go
I just wanted you to know

Through the vine---I heard your life has turned out well
As for mine---you know it's really hard to tell
'cause now and then what might have been
Interferes with what might be

I just wanted you to know
Sometimes driving home at night
I let your memory take control
And you're sitting by my side
I turn up the radio
And cruise down old route 59
And girl it's solid gold, well, I'll let you go
I just wanted you to know

Please don't cry, I'll say goodbye
And I wont call you anymore

[Repeat Chorus]

"I May Be A Fool"

"I May Be A Fool"

I won't be runnin' back into your arms this time
Don't be surprised when you can't have your way
You didn't want my heart but to control my mind
I guess you thought this all was just a game
You tried so hard to keep me here just hangin' on
You loved to see me dancin' on the string
The benefit of doubt was given much too long
I'm tired of playing out this same old scene
I may be a fool for thinking that your love was true
I may be a fool for thinking I'll get over you
Even though it hurts admitting that it has to end
I may be a fool, but never yours again
How long will it take until you see the light
How many hearts will break until you learn
Don't you understand that love's not really blind
One day you'll be the one who's gettin' burned
I may be a fool for thinking that your love was true
I may be a fool for thinking I'll get over you
Even though it hurts admitting that it has to end
I may be a fool, but never yours again
I may be a fool, but never yours again...

"I Might Even Quit Lovin' You"

"I Might Even Quit Lovin' You"

Ever since you told me we were through
I've been down, I've been down
The love you said I'd find to take your place
Never came around, never came around
But one of these days I'll stand on my own
And I'll turn this bleeding heart into stone.

Gonna reach way down inside and find a brand new will to live
Got plans to forget about the way you made me feel
Gonna walk outside one night and turn your memory loose
And when I do, I might even quit lovin' you.
And when I do, I might even quit lovin' you.

There was time I thought I knew for certain
You'd come home, you'd come home
But judging from the nights I've spent without you
I was wrong, I was wrong
The time has finally come to face the truth
There's only one thing left I can do.

Gonna reach way down inside and find a brand new will to live
Got plans to forget about the way you made me feel
Gonna walk outside one night and turn your memory loose
And when I do, I might even quit lovin' you.
Yeah when I do, I might even quit lovin' you.

(When I do, I might even quit lovin' you.)
(When I do, I might even quit lovin' you.)..
