"Everywhere"

"Everywhere"



We were born in this little town
Growin' up I was counting down
Every single day till we made our get-away
But you said you could never see yourself
Trying to make a life anywhere else
This would be your home and I was on my own
But ever since you said good-bye
I've been out here on the wind
Baby you would be surprised
All the places you have been
I've seen you in

Albuquerque waitin' out a blizzard
Arizona dancin' 'cross the desert
Watchin' the sun set in Monterey
Girl I swear just the other day you were
Down in Georgia pickin' them peaches
In Carolina barefoot on the beaches
No matter where you choose to be
In my heart I'll always see you
Everywhere

Now days
When I'm passin' through
The conversation always turns to you
I hear you're doin' fine
Livin' out by the county line
Got a man that's home every night
a couple of kids and the kind of life
That you want to lead
Guess you could say the same for me
Cause you and I made our choices
All those years ago
Still I know I'll hear your voice
And see you down the road
Maybe in

Oklahoma drivin' 'cross the prairie
In Dallas, Texas isn't that where we
Always said we would like to try
Never did so maybe that's why you're on
Every highway just beyond the high-beams
Right beside me in all of my sweet dreams
No matter where you choose to be
In my heart I'll always see you in

Albuquerque waitin' out a blizzard
Arizona dancin' 'cross the desert
Watchin' the sun set in Monterey
Girl I swear just the other day you were
Down in Georgia pickin' them peaches
In Carolina barefoot on the beaches
No matter where you choose to be
In my heart I'll always see you
Everywhere

"Eyes Of A Woman"

"Eyes Of A Woman"



He was rough, he was tough
And he drank his whiskey straight
He would fight every night if he didn't get his way
She was kind She could find all the good in everyone
And then one day she passes his way
He felt reborn in that morning sun
And saw her face, she called his name
And from that moment he knew he'd never be the same

What you can find in the eyes of a woman
Is a reason to believe
Look deep inside the eyes of a woman
See the man you want to be
I'd been down
Kicked around
The world had got the best of me
Out of rope
Little hope I'd ever get back on my feet
She took my hand, said yes you can
One look at her and I'm a brand-new man

What you can find in the eyes of a woman
Is a reason to believe
Look deep inside the eyes of a woman
See the man you wanna be

When I feel the need for inspiration
With just one look I've found my salvation

What you can find in the eyes of a woman
Is a reason to believe
Look deep inside the eyes of a woman
See the man you wanna be
See the man you wanna be
See the man
See the man you wanna be

"Felt Good On My Lips"

"Felt Good On My Lips"



Said her name was a hand me down name
From the side of a family that long ago came
Over here on a boat from somewhere in Spain
Sounded to me just a little bit strange, I guess.
But I have to admit, it felt good on my lips.

She tipped the DJ to play her favorite song
A Spanish little number that was a rockin' on strong
She grabbed me by the sleeve and said, "Let's go and get it on"
By the second chorus I was singing right along with it
I don’t know what it meant but it felt good on my lips.

Oh oh oh I.. I wanna go crazy
You can go crazy too
Oh oh oh I.. I wanna go crazy
I wanna go crazy with you

Everybody sayin' whoa how sweet it is
Whoa yeah it felt good on my lips

She ordered us a drink
It was a purple kind of pink
She said it’s got a shot of a little bit of everything
Mellow yellow umbrella for a fella like me
It was just a bit mellow for me to be seen with
But I took a sip
Yeah it felt good on my lips

Oh oh oh I.. I wanna go crazy
You can go crazy too
Oh oh oh I.. I wanna go crazy
I wanna go crazy with you

Everybody sayin’ whoa how sweet it is
Whoa yeah it felt good on my lips

When the lights came on and they hollered last call
I was busy getting lost in her cherry lip gloss
In a little corner booth, eye to eye no talk
She leaned in close and gave me one long and wet goodnight goodbye kiss
And It felt good on my lips

Whoa how sweet it is
Whoa yeah it felt good on my lips
Whoa how sweet it is
Whoa yeah it felt good on my lips

"Find Out Who Your Friends Are"
(with Tracy Lawrence & Kenny Chesney)

"Find Out Who Your Friends Are"
(with Tracy Lawrence & Kenny Chesney)



Run your car off the side of the road
Get stuck in a ditch way out in the middle of nowhere
Or get yourself in a bind lose the shirt off your back
Need a floor, need a couch, need a bus fare

This is where the rubber meets the road
This is where the cream is gonna rise
This is what you really didn't know
This is where the truth don't lie

[Chorus]
You find out who your friends are
Somebody's gonna drop everything
Run out and crank up their car
Hit the gas, get there fast
Never stop to think 'what's in it for me?' or 'it's way too far'
They just show on up with their big old heart
You find out who your friends are

Everybody wants to slap your back
wants to shake your hand
when you're up on top of that mountain
But let one of those rocks give way then you slide back down look up
and see who's around then

This ain't where the road comes to an end
This ain't where the bandwagon stops
This is just one of those times when
A lot of folks jump off

[Chorus]

When the water's high
When the weather's not so fair
When the well runs dry
Who's gonna be there?

[Chorus]

You find out who your friends are
(yeah, yeah)
You find out who your friends are

Run your car off the side of the road
Get stuck in a ditch way out in the middle of nowhere
(Well man, I've been there)
Or get yourself in a bind lose the shirt off your back
Need a floor, need a couch, need a bus fare
(Man, I've been there)

Man, I've been there
Oooh yeah.

"For A Little While"

"For A Little While"



Hot sun dancin' on the river
We're sittin on the bank and watch the world go by
Our feet in the water she pressed her lips to mine
We were so long on love but short on time
She could be a honeymoon sweet and a little wild
But she was mine oh, for a little while

And I laugh everytime I start to think about us
We sent that summer out in style
And she's gone but she let me with a smile
'Cause she was mine for a little while

We'd take a ride and head on down to airport road
Put the seats back watch the planes leave town
She always said nobody's strong enough to tie her down
Oh but I wasn't lookin' for that anyhow
I knew she'd leave but I didn't know when
It matters to me now oh but it didn't back then

And I laugh everytime I start to think about us
We sent that summer out in style
And she's gone but she let me with a smile
'Cause she was mine for a little while

I keep seein' pictures now of me and her and those summer nights
My mind fills with her
Oh but it's alright
'Cause I laugh everytime I start to think about us
We sent that summer out in style
And she's gone but she let me with a smile
'Cause she was mine for a little while
Yeah she was mine for a little while

"Forever Seventeen"

"Forever Seventeen"


Let's be honest, you're not flawless
But you're as close as anything I've seen
You're not the woman you envisioned
But your life is not a broken time machine
No, it's not that bad
No, it's really not that bad

A little midnight chardonnay
Smooth the edges off the day
A little taste of maryjane
Makes you feel young again
All those years around your eyes
Always take you by surprise
You've been living in a dream
Forever 17

A reckless lover, a father figure
You search for both in every man you meet
You're not a mother and sometimes you wonder
If a son or daughter just might make you feel complete
But no, you don't need someone else
No, it's hard enough to learn to love yourself

[Chorus]

"Forget About Us"

"Forget About Us"


I'm gonna drive on out to the river tonight
Find a quiet spot, turn on my parking lights
I'm gonna drink some beers, try to catch a buzz
Turn my radio up and forget about us

I'm gonna lay me down on the hood of this car
Make another wish upon a falling star
I'm gonna think again about the way it was
I'm gonna close my eyes and forget about us

I know it won't be easy but I've got a plan
To just let my memory let go of your hand
I'm gonna miss your touch
But I know I must forget about us

And when the morning sun burns across my face
I'll put my shirt back on, get up and walk away
I'm gonna climb my frame onto a Greyhound bus
Take a little blue pill and forget about us

I know it won't be easy but I've got a plan
To just let my memory let go of your hand
I'm gonna miss your touch
But I know I must forget about us

[Spoken:]
By the time I get to Phoenix, I won't know your name
Those soft green eyes, your warm skin
And the way you say "Good morning"
I'll be alright

"Friend Of A Friend"

"Friend Of A Friend"



I heard it from a friend of a friend
You're livin' out in LA now
Got a studio apartment, couple blocks off the beach
Doing yoga in the evenings, you love the kids you teach

I heard it from a friend of a friend
You met somebody in a coffee shop
You've been goin' out now, for goin' on ten months
You already met his family, things are heatin' up

Don't you believe, anything you hear
When someone tells you, I still ask about you
After all these years
No matter what they say, it's just not true
I don't spend all my days and all my nights
Just missin' you

I heard it from a friend of a friend
You looked amazing in that long white gown
With flowers in your hair, barefoot in the sand
Your daddy almost broke down when he gave away your hand

But don't you believe, anything you hear
When someone tells you, I still ask about you
After all these years
No matter what they say, it's just not true
I don't spend all my days and all my nights
Just missin' you

I heard it from a friend of a friend
He didn't mean it when he took those vows
You've been stayin' with your mama, a couple weeks now
Been asking everybody about me

I heard it from a friend of a friend
I heard it from a friend of a friend

"Ghost Town Train"

"Ghost Town Train"



If I could I would rewind the times she cried, I just turned around and walked away.
Wish there was a switch I could give then she'd love me like she loved my yesterday.
What I'd give to hold her in my arms feel her heart and wipe her tears right off her face.
That's just plain foolishness truth is life just doesn't ever work that way she's gone.
Oh no, oh no, my baby's gone oh no, oh no.
The morning sun stills the stars, shines her eyes and mine are laughing once again.
Her long hair flowing, I'm there holding her and hoping that this feeling never ends,
but it's just a dream inside my head, gone like the wind just like a child's red balloon.
Floating up into the sky so high and disappearing out into the wild blue,
She's gone, oh no, oh no, my baby's gone, oh no oh no, she's a ghost town train,
a tear drop in the rain, oh no, she's two tail lights disappearing in the night, oh no, oh no she's gone.
She's a ghost town train, a tear drop in the rain, oh my baby's gone,
she's two tail light disappearing in the night, oh now I'm all alone,
she's a ghost town train, a tear drop in the rain, oh my baby's gone,
she's two tail light disappearing in the night oh, (if my clock could rewind the time),
she's a ghost town train a tear-drop in the rain, (I'd turn around and walk away)
she's two tail lights disappearing in the night oh....

"Give It To Me Strait"

"Give It To Me Strait"



Bartender I may sit here on this barstool all night long
But I won't need much attention
I just need some time alone
So if you'll give me some quarters and a bottle of your best
You can just sit back and let the jukebox do the rest

Give it to me Strait
Sing "Am I Blue" while I sit here and cry
And tell me how my baby's gotten so good at goodbye
It's gonna take a fireman to put this old flame out
So come on give it to me Strait
Before I come unwound

Let's start off nice and easy
Something like "If I Know Me"
And we'll work our way up slowly to "Fool Hearted Memory"
Yeah I've got all night long to sit right here and fall apart
So don't leave out one single song
I know 'em all by broken heart

Give it to me Strait
Sing "Am I Blue"
While I sit here and cry
And tell me how my baby's gotten so good at goodbye
It's gonna take a fireman to put this old flame out
So come on give it to me Strait
Before I come unwound

There ain't one country singer
That ain't good for a bad heartache
And for me there's nothing smoother
Than a good stiff shot of Strait

It's gonna take a fireman to put this old flame out
So come on give it to me Strait
Before I come unwound
So come on give it to me Strait
Before I come unwound
