What I Need To Do

I keep tellin myself this is the right thing to do
I was wastin her time, waitin on dreams that just weren't comin true
And this old highway seems to understand
Leadin me on to somewhere that no one knows my name
I got the window rolled down, I got the radio up
I'm doin all that I can to get my mind off us

What I need to do is turn this car around
Drive as fast as I can til I see the lights of our hometown
And run to her, take her in my arms
Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard
But I drive on, and on, and on

Eighty-seven more miles gets me into Baton Rogue
There's a buddy of mine who says he might find some work that I can do
Or maybe head up north to Knoxville, Tennessee
I know my baby sister, has got a couch where I can sleep
Now the sun's goin down on my broken heart
Lord, I gotta go bak before I get too far

What I need to do is turn this car around
Drive as fast as I can til I see the lights of our hometown
And run to her, take her in my arms
Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard
But I drive on, and on, and on

But I drive on
Yes I drive on, and on, and on

Knowin what I need to do
Girl, I'm comin home to you

Knowin what I need to do
Girl I'm comin home to you
I'm comin home to you
Knowin what I need to do....

How Forever Feels

Big orange ball, sinkin' in the water.
Toes in the sand, couldn't get much hotter.
Little umbrella shaped margaritas
Coconut oil, tan senioritas
Oh, now I know how Jimmy Buffet feels.

Hands on the wheel, cruisin' down the interstate
Gas pedal sticks, carries my car away
I was going fast as a Rambler goes
I could feel the speed from my head to my toes
Now I know how Richard Petty feels

I've been around the block a time or two
Done almost everything a boy can do
I've done some livin', yeah I've had fun
But there is one thing that I haven't done

Saved two months, bought a little diamond
Tonights the night, feels like perfect timin'
Down on one knee on momma's front steps,
Man I'm gonna die if she really says yes

I wanna know how forever feels

I've been around the block a time or two
Done almost everything a boy can do
I've done some livin', yeah I've had fun
But there is one thing that I haven't done

I wanna know how forever feels
Hey, I wanna know how forever feels
Girl, I wanna know how forever feels

You Had Me From Hello

One word, that's all was said,
Something in your voice called me, turned my head.
Your smile captured me, you were in my future as far as I could see.
And I dont know how it happened, but it happens still.
You ask me if I love you, if I always will.........

Well, you had me from "Hello"
I felt love start to grow the moment I looked into your eyes,
You won me, it was over from the start.
You completely stole my heart, and now you won't let go.
I never even had a chance you know?
You had me from "Hello"

Inside I built a wall so high around my heart, I thought I'd never fall.
One touch, you brought it down
Bricks of my defenses scattered on the ground
And I swore to me that I wasn't going to love again
The last time was the last time I'd let someone in

Well, you had me from "Hello"
I felt love start to grow the moment I looked into your eyes,
You won me, it was over from the start.
You completely stole my heart, and now you wont let go.
I never even had a chance you know?
You had me from "Hello"

Thats all you said
Something in your voice calls me, turns my head
You had me from "Hello"
You had me from "Hello"
Girl, I've loved you from "Hello"

Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me

She said you never tell me that you love me anymore
So I can't help but wonder if you do
She said if things don't change you'll see me walk right out that door
Cause I've done everything I know to do
I said I just don't know what it is you want from me
She said I only want us back the way we used to be
Then she said

Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
Hold me, hold me like you want me
Like you'll never let me go
She said show me, show me
That you really love me
And then tell me cause I really need to know
She said kiss me, kiss me, kiss me

I got down on my knee right there and promised her I'd change
Cause deep inside I knew that she was right
I said I know we've drifted and there's only me to blame
But I don't want to waste another night
Somewhere in the darkness there we found a brand new start
As I took every word she whispered straight to heart

Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
Hold me, hold me like you want me
Like you'll never let me go
She said show me, show me
That you really love me
And then tell me cause I really need to know
She said kiss me, kiss me, kiss me

Kiss me......

Life Is Good

Darlin if you think back to the heartbroken past
Before we found each other
It's so amazing. It's almost crazy.
What a difference lookin through the eyes of love

Life is good, the grass is green
The good Lord's smiling on you and me
Gonna knock on wood
Sweet sunshine everywhere I look
You love me like no one could
Life is good

People stop me on the street, thinking I'm the old me
And talk about the bad ole days
But ever since you came along, them ole blues are long gone
I break into a grin and all that I can say is

Life is good, the grass is green
The good Lord's smiling on you and me
Gonna knock on wood
Sweet sunshine everywhere I look
You love me like no one could
Life is good

Some day girl this ole world will try to beat you up
Well let 'em bring it on cuz everytime we touch

Life is good, the grass is green
The good Lord's smiling on you and me
Gonna knock on wood
Sweet sunshine everywhere I look
You love me like no one could
Life is good

Life is good, the grass is green
The good Lord's smiling on you and me
Gonna knock on wood
Sweet sunshine everywhere I look
You love me like no one could

Everywhere We Go

I just found this old picture in my wallet
Of you and me, down in Mexico
Just look at us there on that beach, on that blanket
That look on our face says all that you need to know

Seems like everywhere we go baby, love goes
Everywhere, everytime our hearts meet, love is all around us
Every road we take, darlin love takes
Every turn, livin right inside us
I believe love goes
Everywhere we go

Sometimes I dream, we're alone on an island
Nowhere to go, we don't want to leave
All we have is a world full of time
We spend it all on you and me
It's all we need

Seems like everywhere we go baby, love goes
Everywhere, everytime our hearts meet, love is all around us
Every road we take, darlin love takes
Every turn, livin right inside us
I believe love goes
Everywhere we go

I'm so alive when I'm near you
This fire in my heart lights my world when I'm with you

Every road we take, darlin love takes
Every turn, livin right inside us
I believe love goes
Everywhere we go

I believe love goes, everywhere we go
Everywhere we go

She Thinks My Tractor`s Sexy

Plowing these fields in the hot summer sun
Over by the gate lordy here she comes
With a basket full of chicken and a big cold jug of sweet tea
I make a little room and she climbs on up
Open up a throttle and stir a little dust
Just look at her face she ain't a foolin me

She thinks my tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always staring at me
While I'm chuggin along
She likes the way it's pullin' while we're tillin' up the land
She's even kind of crazy 'bout my farmer's tan
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
She thinks my tractor's sexy

We ride back and forth until we run out of light
Take it to the barn put it up for the night
Climb up in the loft sit and talk with the radio on
She said she's got a dream and I asked what it is
She wants a little farm and a yard full of kids
One more teeny weeny ride before I take her home

She thinks my tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always staring at me
While I'm chuggin along
She likes the way it's pullin' while we're tillin' up the land
She's even kind of crazy 'bout my farmer's tan
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
She thinks my tractor's sexy

Well she ain't into cars or pick up trucks
But if it runs like a Deere man her eyes light up

She thinks my tractor's....

She thinks my tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always staring at me
While I'm chuggin along
She likes the way it's pullin' while we're tillin' up the land
She's even kind of crazy 'bout my farmer's tan
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
She thinks my tractor's sexy

She thinks my tractor's sexy
She thinks my tractor's sexy

California

She lived at the end of a little dirt road
In a house where secrets go untold
Barefoot in a cotton dress, dark hair in a tangled mess
And a head full of crazy dreams
She said

I'm going to California
A place where the sun always shines
I'm goin to California
And I'm leavin everything behind

You can't help, but feel a little bit touched
When your daddy loves you a little too much
You can wish on four leaf clovers, but all the fields have been plowed over
And there's nothin left to do but fly away

I'm going to California
A place where the sun always shines
I'm goin to California
And I'm leavin everything behind

Stars burn like candles on that two-lane highway
She made her wish, and disappeared on her 18th birthday
And she said

I'm going to California
A place where the sun always shines
I'm goin to California
And I'm leavin everything behind

I'm goin to California
And I'm leavin everything behind

Oh California
I'm goin to California

Oh California
Leavin it all behind
California....

Baptism

The summer breeze, made ripples on the pond
Rattled through the reeds and the willow trees beyond
Daddy in his good hat, mama in her Sunday dress
Watched with pride, as I stood there in the water up to my chest
And the preacher spoke about the cleansing blood
and I sank my toes into that East Tennessee mud

Then it was down with the old man, up with the new
Raised to walk in the way of light and truth
I didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore
But I felt like a newborn baby, cradled up in the arms of the Lord

Amazing grace, oh how sweet the sound
There was glory in the air, there was dinner on the ground
And my sins which were many, were washed away and gone
Along with a buffalo nickel I forgot to leave at home
But that seemed like such a small, small price to pay
For the blessed peace of mind that came to me that day

And it was down with the old man, up with the new
Raised to walk in the way of light and truth
I didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore
But I felt like a newborn baby, cradled up in the arms of the Lord

This road is long and dusty, sometimes the soul it must be cleansed
And I long to feel that water, rushing over me again

Down with the old man, up with the new
Raised to walk in the way of light and truth
I didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore
But I felt like a newborn baby, cradled up in the arms of the Lord
I felt like a newborn baby, cradled up in the arms of the Lord

A Woman Knows

She can't put her finger on a single lipstick stain
Perfume doesn't linger on a shirt on
There's no matchbook in his pocket with a number and name
So why does she still hurt

Cause a woman knows, when there's another woman
She can feel her, all over her man
A woman knows, when there's another woman
You can't fool her, so don't try to think you can

What she don't know, won't hurt her
That's what he tells himself
So he hides his cheatin heart inside his chest
He thinks he's put one over, but what he don't know is
He's already confessed

Cause a woman knows, when there's another woman
She can feel her, all over her man
A woman knows, when there's another woman
You can't fool her, so don't try to think you can

A woman knows, when there's another woman
You can't fool her, so don't try to think you can
You can't fool her, so don' try to think you can

I Might Get Over You

Well, I opened my heart, and I let you in
I promised I'd never love again
And still doin what I'd said I'd do
Someday I might get over you

I wear my ring on a chain now, instead of my hand
And I deal with your memories the best I can
I've even been out on a date or two
Someday I might get over you

Oh, I never thought I'd see it
But I think I see the light now
I know that what I have to do
Is get on with my life, but I can't take another day
I can't face another night, so I just take another breath
And let it go

If I could ever feel the way I felt
I'll take a chance with someone else
And if my heart takes chances too
Someday I might get over you

Oh, I never thought I'd see it
But I think I see the light now
I know that what I have to do
Is get on with my life, but I can't take another day
I can't face another night, so I just take another breath
And let it go

Well, I opened my heart, and I let you in
I promised I'd never love again
Right now it's still somethin I can't do
Someday I might get over you

Thought it may not be til my life is through
Someday I might get over you
