Yes, she blew through the door like TNT,
Put her hand on her hip, pointed a finger at me. Said "I'm a whiskey drinking, cowboy chasing, helluva time. "I like Kenny, Keith, Allan and Patsy Cline. "I'm a full grown queen bee looking for honey. "Ha oh ho, aw, play something country." Yeah, the band took a break, The DJ played P Diddy. She said "I didn't come here to hear, Something thumping from the city." Said "I, I shaved my legs, I paid my money." Ha oh ho, play something country." "Ha oh ho, aw, play something country." [Chorus] Crank up the band, play the steel guitar. Hank it up a little, let's rock this bar. Threw back a shot, yelled "I'm a George Strait junkie." "Ha oh ho, play something country." "Ha oh ho, aw, play something country." Yeah, the bartender yelled "y'all, it's closing time." She got this wild look on her face, An' said "Your truck or mine, "I know a place down the road, "It's kinda funky. "Ha oh ho, all out in the country. "Ha oh ho, now, play something country." [Chorus: x2] |

Oh, off across the room, she sits alone...
Pretty as a picture, sadder than a sad song. Well, I'll do whatever it takes, try whatever works. I can't just sit here and watch her hurt. While she's so sad, while Mr Right did her wrong, I'll give her one more drink an' a few more songs. In the bar-room haze, all alone, she sits. Oh, she's about as lonely as I'm gonna let her get. Oh, sittin' lonely at the bar tryin' to drown the past. Starin' at her broken heart at the bottom of a glass. Oh, I don't want to push it, but I can't take much more. Think I'm gonna have to step up an' show heartache to the door. While she's so sad, while Mr Right did her wrong, I'll give her one more drink an' a few more songs. In the bar-room haze, all alone, she sits. Yeah, she's about as lonely as I'm gonna let her get. <i>[Instrumental break]</i> While she's so sad, while Mr Right did her wrong, I'll give her one more drink an' a few more songs. In the bar-room haze, all alone, she sits. Yeah, she's about as lonely, Yeah, she's about as lonely as I'm gonna let her get. Oh, my, my. |

When your headlights cut across my wall
Yeah, I thought it might be you Looking for a place to fall Talking sweet and thinking small Seeking out convenient arms Yeah, and resting for a while Someone to keep you safe and warm While you ride out your latest storm Oh [Chorus] My heart's not a hotel You can check in and out of It's not a temporary shelter It's a home for someone's love Don't just come here when you're lonely Knowing full an' well you wont stay 'cause I don't have the strength tonight To turn you away Oh don't let the dawn find me asleep On a pillow of regret Take all my dreams,just leave the key And let me keep my dignity Cause [Chorus] No don't come when you're lonely Knowing full an' well you wont stay Cause I don't have the strength tonight To turn you away I don't have the strength tonight To turn you away |

Well, up in the backwoods, down in the holler
Old boy feeling like a dog on a collar Keepin' that chain hold tight Waiting on Saturday night Put on the smell good Put on Skynyrd Head into town like a Nascar winner Cruisin' back and forth to the Tasty Freeze Everywhere you look all you see is [Chorus] Hillbilly deluxe, slick pick up trucks Big timing in a small town Stirrin' it up right about sundown Black denim and chrome to the bone With a little homegrown Country girl cuddled up Hillbilly deluxe Couple kids, sweet thing driving a fast back Shoot 'em a coon smile Hoping that they smile back Hey, baby, what's your name? Burn a little rubber when the red light change Here come the blue light Here come Barney Hide all the beer y'all Let's move the party Gotta go but that's alright Do it all again next Friday night [Chorus: x2] Hillbilly deluxe Hillbilly deluxe Hillbilly deluxe. |

You ain't been thinkin' this through now have ya?
The last thing you need is the thing that you keep coming back to The memories still fresh in your mind The way that you lost with it all on the line More than you could justify But she gives you that look and you just gotta try [Chorus] One more roll of the dice Maybe just one more shot in the dark One more chance that your luck might change While you still got a little something left of your heart She's a game you can play, not a game you can win But one more roll of the dice and your believing again Maybe your still holding onto what it felt like The higher the stakes the bigger the rush when it goes right But when your gambling with love, Having it all is never enough Its a curse when it gets in your blood Your down to your shoes but you can't give it up [Chorus] She's a game you can play Not a game you can win But one more roll of the dice and your believing again [Chorus] |

I'm a cold one down at the end of the day
A little sundown buzz and more on the way I wash a week's worth of dust off my old truck While Bobby Earl runs home to get dressed up Here comes Clifford, gotta forty in a brown bag In his pointed toe boots and a hat band rebel flag He's got an Eastwood grin and a too early swagger Hollerin' turn off that rap boys, and play me some Haggard [Chorus] Getting drunk, getting loud Billy throws a punch in the crowd Some cowboy's lights got out Runnin' wild, getting high Smokin' tires through the lights Livin' like we?re never gonna die It's just another, just another neon night They got Ricky and the Redstreaks playin' down the road Oh, it's all night ladies night at the Cotton-Eyed Joe JC always gets the girl, Billy's always fighting Poor old Bobby Earl never gets the right one [Chorus: x2] |

Old man Wrigley lived in that white house
Down the street where I grew up Momma used to send me over with things We struck a friendship up I spent a few long summers out on his old porch swing Says he was in the war when in the navy Lost his wife, lost his baby Broke down and asked him one time How ya keep from going crazy He said I'll see my wife and son in just a little while I asked him what he meant He looked at me and smiled, said [Chorus] I raise my hands, bow my head I'm finding more and more truth in the words written in red They tell me that there's more to life than just what I can see Oh I believe Few years later I was off at college Talkin' to mom on the phone one night Getting all caught up on the gossip The ins and outs of the small town life She said oh by the way son, old man Wrigley has died. Later on that night, I laid there thinkin' back Thought 'bout a couple long-lost summers I didn't know whether to cry or laugh If there was ever anybody deserved a ticket to the other side It'd be that sweet old man who looked me in the eye, said [Chorus] I can't quote the book The chapter or the verse You can't tell me it all ends In a slow ride in a hearse You know I'm more and more convinced The longer that I live Yeah, this can't be No, this can't be No, this can't be all there is [Chorus] Oh, I I believe (I believe) I believe (I believe) I believe (I believe) I believe (I believe) I believe (I believe) I believe (I believe) I believe (I believe) |

There's a picture of us in a bar, out in California,
Eatin' fish Tacos an' drinkin' cold, cold beer. An' man we had the time of our lives... Yes, that was a very good year. Drove all the way up the coast of California, All the way the 101. One time we cruised all the way to Vancouver, Just to watch the settin' sun, yeah, Just to watch the settin' sun. Every time I looked in those far away eyes, I could see me gettin' left behind. I gave her my best, But her west was wilder than mine. Got lost in the desert an' found an Indian casino, An' she started rollin' those nines. Stackin' up the chips halfway to Heaven, Without even tryin'. We watched it all go at the roulette wheel. She let it all ride on the black. She said: "You can't keep what you never had. "Can't keep what you never had." Laugh like the devil, howl at the moon... I knew I was losin' my mind. I gave her my best, But her west was wilder than mine. <i>[Instrumental break]</i> An' I was gassin' up in a dust storm outside of Sedona... She was chasin' a tumbleweed. She flagged down a Kenwood, jumped in the cab. It was the last of her I'd ever see. It was the last of her I'd ever see. An' where the wild wind blows an' anything goes, As long as it's over the line. I gave her my best, But her west was wilder than mine. It was wilder than mine. There's a picture of us sin a bar, out in California, Eatin' fish Tacos an' drinkin' cold, cold beer. |

Not that long ago
Seems like yesterday We were caught up in love We were swept away Seems like over night From out of the blue Something went wrong Between me and you [Chorus] Oh, I'll move on I'll be strong Do what I have to do No matter where you are You'll always have my heart I may never get over you The hopeless dreams, insanity I'm just a fool with a fantasy I close my eyes I feel your touch Just as real as it ever was [Chorus: x2] |

Ain't it funny the turns life puts you through
Don't know what's round the bend Man, you don't know where it's leading you Close your eyes Say a prayer Take it on the chin It's the longest night It comes back again [Chorus] Baby I thought that love was over and gone forever Never gonna come back to me Never gonna hold me again But your love Pounds in my heart like thunder Flashes through me like lightening Making me believe again Don't know what I'm supposed to say Ain't got a clue about what I need to do All I know is how I feel right here Right now Here with you [Chorus: x2] Oh Making me believe again |
