"Hold You Now"

"Hold You Now"



I can't take back the things I said
To you in the past
Or make you forget the reasons why
We didn't last

I'm haunted by what might have been
Still I can't change who I was back then

But if I could hold you now you'd see
I've turned myself around and now
I'm someone you'd be proud to love
I'd do all the right things, make promises
That I'd keep
It'd hurt too much to let you down
And in my arms there'd be no room for doubt
If I could hold you now

It's funny how this empty room
Makes it all too clear
When I let you leave
A part of me just disappeared

But if I'd known then what I've come to know
There's no way I could have let you go

But if I could hold you now you'd see
I've turned myself around and now
I'm someone you'd be proud to love
I'd do all the right things, make promises
That I'd keep
It'd hurt too much to let you down
And in my arms there'd be no room for doubt
If I could hold you now

But if I'd known then what I've come to know
There's no way I could have let you go

But if I could hold you now you'd see
I've turned myself around and now
I'm someone you'd be proud to love
I'd do all the right things, make promises
That I'd keep
It'd hurt too much to let you down
And in my arms there'd be no room for doubt
If I could hold you now

If I could hold you now
If I could hold you now

"Honky Tonk Badonkadonk"

"Honky Tonk Badonkadonk"



Turn it up some
Alright boys, this is her favorite song
You know that right
So, if we play it good and loud
She might get up and dance again
Ooh, she put her beer down
Here she comes
Here she comes
Left left left right left
Whoo

Husslers shootin' eight ball
Throwin' darts at the wall
Feelin' damn near 10 ft. tall
Here she comes, Lord help us all
Ol' T.W.'s girlfriend done slapped him outta his chair
Poor ole boy, it ain't his fault
It's so hard not to stare
At that honky tonk badonkadonk
Keepin' perfect rhythm
Make ya wanna swing along
Got it goin' on
Like Donkey Kong
And whoo-wee
Shut my mouth, slap your grandma
There outta be a law
Get the Sheriff on the phone
Lord have mercy, how'd she even get them britches on
That honky tonk badonkadonk
(Aww son)

Now Honey, you can't blame her
For what her mama gave her
It ain't right to hate her
For workin' that money-maker
Band shuts down at two
But we're hangin' out till three
We hate to see her go
But love to watch her leave
With that honky tonk badonkadonk
Keepin' perfect rhythm
Make ya wanna swing along
Got it goin' on
Like Donkey Kong
And whoo-wee
Shut my mouth, slap your grandma
There outta be a law
Get the Sheriff on the phone
Lord have mercy, how'd she even get them britches on
With that honky tonk badonkadonk
(Ooh, that's what I'm talkin' bout right there, honey)

We don't care about the drinkin'
Barely listen to the band
Our hands, they start a shakin'
When she gets the urge to dance
Drivin' everybody crazy
You think you fell in love
Boys, you better keep your distance
You can look but you can't touch
That honkey tonk badonkadonk
Keepin' perfect rhythm
Make ya wanna swing along
Got it goin' on
Like Donkey Kong
And whoo-wee
Shut my mouth, slap your grandma
There outta be a law
Get the Sheriff on the phone
Lord have mercy, how'd she even get them britches on
That honky tonk badonkadonk

That honky tonk badonkadonk
Yeah, that honky tonk badonkadonk

(That's it, right there boys, that's why we do what we do
It ain't for the money, it ain't for the glory, it ain't for the free whiskey
It's for the badonkadonk)

"Hot Mama"

"Hot Mama"



You're doin' all you can to get in them old jeans.
You want that body back, you had at seventeen.
Baby, don't get down; don't worry 'bout a thing.
'Cause the way you fill 'em out, hey, that's all right with me.
I don't want the girl you used to be.
An' if you ain't noticed, the kids are fast asleep,

An' you're one hot mama;
You turn me on, let's turn it up,
An' turn this room into a sauna.
One hot mama,
Oh, whaddya say, baby?
You wanna?

Well, I know sometimes you think that all you really are,
Is the woman with the kids an' the groceries in the car.
An' you worry about your hips an' you worry about your age.
Meanwhile I'm tryin' to catch the breath you take away.
Oh, an' believe me, you still do.
Baby, all I see, when I look at you,

Is one hot mama;
You turn me on, let's turn it up,
An' turn this room into a sauna.
One hot mama,
Oh, whaddya say, baby?
You wanna?

I can't imagine me lovin' someone else.
I'm a lucky man,
I think Daddy's got himself,

One hot mama;
You turn me on, let's turn it up,
An' turn this room into a sauna.
One hot mama,
Oh, whaddya say, babe?
Oh, now whaddya say, babe?
You wanna?

You're one hot mama,
Let's turn this room into a sauna, yeah.
Whaddya say, babe?
Whaddya say, babe?

"I Came Here To Live"

"I Came Here To Live"



I grew up in a town where tough was a cigarette
And a souped up car on a county road
Nothin' much to do back then
So we'd make bets
On how much drink a guy could hold
And I held my own
Learn to hold my own

Daddy works some dead-end job at the concrete plant
Mama taught the Sunday bible class
For eighteen years I remember thinkin'
There was more to life than that
So I ran the streets to beat the Devil
Goin' just as fast as I could fly
'Cause I came here to live
I didn't come here to die

Mama used to wait for me with the porch light on
Worried about her little boy 'til I got home
Daddy he'd say listen son
But back then there wasn't much
That I didn't already know

I reckon I was doing close to 80
When I felt the tire slip out from under me
And I never set out lookin' for Jesus
So I guess Jesus come lookin' for me
And He found me upset down in a ditch
Smokin' gas in my eyes
And He said son you came here to live
You didn't come here to die

Sunday morning I got up and I went to church
That summer I got a job and I went to work
Met a girl in town put some money down
On a little house with a yard

Our little boy was due in September
But he came early in July
For eighteen days all I remember
Was settin' there at his side
Sayin' son open up your eyes
Just open up your eyes
'Cause you came here to live
You didn't come here to die
Son you came here to live

"I Can Dig It"

"I Can Dig It"



You say his memory is a habit that won't let you go I'll help you kick it
If you're looking for a ride on a real smooth road I'm your ticket
If you're holding onto seeds you been wanting to sow
If you wanna break ground, I'll break out the hoe
If you want a little garden where some lovin' can grow
I can dig it

If you wanna build a fortified house of love I can brick it
Name me something that you want, ain't a task to tough
I can get it, yeah I can get it
If you're lookin' for a man that can do all that
If you want your broken heart to be your last
If you wanna big hole to bury your past
I can dig it

If you're buying what I'm selling just say the word
And I'll roll up my sleeves and baby, I'll get to work

If you're sick and tired of a liar and cheater
If you want a true love 'til you meet St. Peter
A drink from a well where the water is sweeter
I can dig it, yeah I can dig it

I dug that

If you're buying what I'm selling just say the word
And I'll roll up my sleeves yeah and baby, I'll get to work

If you're sick and tired of a liar and cheater
If you want a true love 'til you meet St. Peter
A drink from a well where the water is sweeter
I can dig it, yeah I can dig it

Can you dig it, baby?
I can dig it

"I Can Only Love You Like A Man"

"I Can Only Love You Like A Man"



From the time you were a baby
You had this notion in your head
Someone would come along and sweep you off your feet
Like in all those storybooks you read
Well if you're lookin` for salvation
Like some damsel in destress
Girl there ain't no heroes on white horses
At least I ain't seen 'em yet

There ain't no knights in shinin` armor
There ain't no never, never land
And I won't ever walk on water
I can only love you like a man

Now heaven knows I'm no angel
Just flesh and bone like all the rest
I never clamed to have a halo
All I can give you is my best
But, I will never try to hurt you
Or even give you cause to doubt
That my heart is yours forever
Ain't that what true love's all about

There ain't no knights in shinin` armor
There ain't no never, never land
And I won't ever walk on water
I can only love you like a man

No I won't ever walk on water
I can only love you like a man

"I Can't Outrun You"

"I Can't Outrun You"



Ninety-five down the interstate
Mile high on a jet plane
Desert road or a downtown train
It's all the same
I can't outrun you

Now I can move to another town
And nobody to ask where you are now
LA or Mexico
No matter where I go
I can't outrun you

You're in my heart
You're in my mind
Everywhere ahead
Everywhere behind
Every turn I take
You're right around the bend

It's like your ghost is chasing me
When I'm awake
When I'm asleep
There's a part of you in every part of me

And I can't outrun you
I can't outrun you

Now I've had chances with a girl or two
But all I ever saw was you
Holdin' my hand
Kissin' my face
I guess some pictures never fade

You're in my heart
You're in my mind
Everywhere ahead
Everywhere behind
Every turn I take
You're right around the bend

It's like your ghost is chasing me
When I'm awake
When I'm asleep
There's a part of you
In every part of me

I can't outrun you. No.
I can't outrun you. No.
I can't outrun

Thought there might just come a time
Wouldn't regret tellin' you goodbye
But lookin' back
Should'a realized
I can't outrun you
I can't outrun you
I can't outrun you

"I Got My Game On"

"I Got My Game On"



I got my game on,

I step out of the shower steamin' up the place
Wipe off the mirror, shave my baby face
Can't help but smile, hey what can I say
I got my game on

Put on my black silk shirt, my Armani suit, my custom made hat, my alligator boots
Slip my rings on my fingers, my new shades
Ooooh, I got my game on,

Yeah I got my game on, better hang on tight
I guarantee it's gonna be a helluva ride
I got my groove on, I got my smooth on
Yeah you ladies better watch out tonight
I got my game on

Get to the club in my caddy with my custom 24's
Flip my keys to the valet and I'm ready to roar
They're gonna know the second I strut through the door
I got my game on

Yeah I got my game on better hang on tight
I guarantee it's gonna be a helluva ride
I got my groove on, I got my smooth on
Yeah you ladies are in trouble tonight,
I got my game on.

That little hottie at the bar, just game me a wink
Flashed my Platinum card and buy her a drink
From that look she's giving me son it's a damn good thing.

I got my game on better hang on tight
I guarantee it's gonna be a helluva ride I got my groove on
I got my smooth on, going rock star crazy tonight.
I got my game on

Yeah I got my game on, game on now baby

I got my game on

"I Learned How To Love From You"

"I Learned How To Love From You"



I cannot be bitter
Even when the tears fall
Though I had to let you go
My heart knows
I learned how tho love from you

You found something hiding
I did not know was missing
An unlit fire down in my soul
Now my heart knows
I learned how to love from you

You loved like there never was a risk
Shared your heart with every tender kiss
Now I know how much I have to give
'Cause I learned how to love from you

If I start to fall again
I'll close my eyes and not resist
Without fear I'll just let go
'Cause my heart knows
That I learned how to trust
In the power of a touch
I learned how to love from you
