This Ain’t No Love Song March 9, 2011
Song: This Ain’t No Love Song
Artist: Trace Adkins
Year: 2010
Lyrics:
Well, my heart didn’t skip a beat
When I saw you standin’ there,
Lookin’ like some kinda angel,
Like you were walkin’ on air.
And the earth didn’t move
When you first said my name.
I didn’t feel a thing, no not me.
My heart didn’t skip a beat.
This ain’t no love song,
I just felt like gettin’ my guitar on,
And singin’ a tune
Singin’ ‘bout you.
Yeah, feelin’ good and tappin’ my shoes.
And all this stuff I’m makin’ up,
Well, you probably won’t be hearin’ it on the radio,
But then you never know.
So baby if you want,
You can sing along,
But this ain’t no love song.
I couldn’t sleep last night,
But you weren’t on my mind.
And I went for a drive last night,
But if you saw me driving by
Well I must’ve took a wrong turn.
I must’ve been thinkin’ ‘bout somethin’ else
Had a melody in my head.
Yeah, maybe that’s why
I couldn’t sleep last night.
This ain’t no love song,
I just felt gettin’ my guitar on,
And singin’ a tune
Singin’ ‘bout you.
Yeah, feelin’ good and tappin’ my shoes.
And all this stuff I’m makin’ up,
Well, you probably won’t be hearin’ it on the radio,
But then you never know.
So baby if you want,
You can sing along,
But this ain’t no love song.
Love song, love song.
Singin’ to you baby,
Singin’ to you baby,
All night long.
Yeah, half this stuff I’m making up
Well you probably won’t be hearing it on the radio.
But then you never know.
So baby if you want you can sing along,
But this ain’t no love song.
Love song, love song.
This ain’t no love song
Colder Weather March 8, 2011
Song: Colder Weather
Artist: Zac Brown Band
Year: 2010
Lyrics:
She’d trade Colorado if he’d take her with him,
Closes the door before the winter lets the cold in,
And wonders if her love is strong enough to make him stay,
She’s answered by the tail lights
Shining through the window pane
(Chorus)
He said I wanna see you again
But I’m stuck in colder weather
Maybe tomorrow will be better
Can I call you then
She said you’re a ramblin’ man
And you ain’t ever gonna change
You gotta gypsy soul to blame
And you were born for leavin’
At a truck stop diner just outside of Lincoln,
The night is black as the coffee he was drinkin’,
And in the waitress’ eyes he sees the same ‘ol light a shinin’,
He thinks of Colorado
And the girl he left behind him
(Chorus)
He said I wanna see you again
But I’m stuck in colder weather
Maybe tomorrow will be better
Can I call you then
She said you’re a ramblin’ man
And you ain’t ever gonna change
You got a gypsy soul to blame
And you were born for leavin'(born for leavin’)
Well it’s a winding road
When your in the lost and found
You’re a lover I’m a runner
And we go ’round ‘n ’round
And I love you but I leave you
I don’t want you but I need you
You know it’s you that calls me back here baby
Oh I wanna see you again
But I’m stuck in colder weather
Maybe tomorrow will be better
Can I call you then
Cause I’m a ramblin’ man
I ain’t ever gonna change (I ain’t ever gonna change)
Gotta gypsy soul to blame
And I was born for leavin’ (born for leavin’)
And when I close my eyes I see you
No matter where I am
I can smell your perfume through these whispering pines
I’m with your ghost again
It’s a shame about the weather
But I know soon we’ll be together
And I can’t wait till then
I can’t wait till then
Pray For You March 7, 2011
Song: Pray For You
Artist: Jaron and The Long Road Home
Year: 2009
Lyrics:
I haven’t been to church since I don’t remember when
Things were going great ‘˜til they fell apart again
So I listened to the preacher as he told me what to do
He said you cant go hating others who have done wrong to you.
Sometimes we get angry, but we must not condemn.
Let the good Lord do His job and you just pray for them.
I pray your brakes go out running down a hill
I pray a flowerpot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the
head like I’d like to
I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls
I pray you’re flying high when your engine stalls
I pray all your dreams never come true
Just know wherever you are honey, I pray for you
I’m really glad I found my way to church
‘Cause I’m already feeling better and I thank God for his words.
Yeah I’m going take the high road,
And do what the preacher told me to do,
You keep messing up and I’ll keep praying for you.
I pray your tire blows out at 110.
I pray you pass out drunk with your best friend and wake up with
his and her tattoos.
I pray your brakes go out running down a hill.
I pray a flowerpot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the
head like I’d like to.
I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls
I pray you’re flying high when your engine stalls
I pray all your dreams never come true
Just know wherever you are, near or far, in your house or in your
car,
wherever you are honey, I pray for you.
I pray for you
God Love Her March 6, 2011
Song: God Love Her
Artist: Toby Keith
Year: 2008
Lyrics:
Just a girl born in Dixie, washed in the blood
And raised on the banks of the Mississippi mud
She always had a thing about fallin’ in love with a bad boy
Yeah, they could see it all comin’ but her daddy never dreamed
She’d grow up that fast, you know what I mean
The way a girl gets when she turns seventeen, kinda crazy
She’s a rebel child and a preacher’s daughter
She was baptized in dirty water
Her mama cried the first time they caught her with me
They knew they couldn’t stop her
She holds tight, me and the Bible
On the back seat of my motorcycle
Left her daddy standin’ there preachin’ to the choir, you see
God love her
Oh, me and God love her!
She kissed her mama goodbye, said I’ll be sure ‘n phone ya
She called her from a truck stop in Tucson Arizona
{ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/t/toby-keith-lyrics/god-love-her-lyrics.html }
With Amazing Grace, we made California line
And then my gypsy life started takin’ its toll
And the fast lane got empty and out of control
And just like an angel she saved my soul from the devil
Yeah, she’s a rebel child and a preacher’s daughter
She was baptized in dirty water
Her mama cried the first time they caught her with me
They knew they couldn’t stop her
She holds tight, me and the Bible
On the back seat of my motorcycle
Left her daddy standin’ there, preachin’ to the choir, you see
God love her
Oh, me and God love her!
Now she holds tight to me and the Bible
On the back seat of my motorcycle
Left her daddy standin’ there preachin’ to the choir, you see
God love her
Oh, me and God love her!
God love her
Me and God love her
Don’t Happen Twice March 5, 2011
Song: Don’t Happen Twice
Artist: Kenny Chesney
Year: 2000
Lyrics:
I haven’t seen you in forever
Oh you haven’t changed a bit
You didn’t think that I would remember
How could I forget
We sang Bobby McGhee on the hood of my car
Made a wish on every star
In that clear September sky
One bottle of wine and two Dixie cups
3 am I fell in love
For the first time in my life
Oh that’s something that just don’t happen twice
To this day I still taste that first kiss
How I prayed it wouldn’t end
In a way, seeing you like this
I guess it never really did
We sang Bobby McGhee on the hood of my car
Made a wish on every star
In that clear september sky
One bottle of wine and two Dixie cups
3 am I fell in love
For the first time in my life
That’s something that just don’t happen twice
One bottle of wine and two Dixie cups
3 am I fell in love
For the first time in my life
Oh that’s something, baby that’s something
Oh that’s something
That just don’t happen twice
Oh yeah
We sang Bobby McGhee on the hood of my car
Made a wish on every star
One bottle of wine and two Dixie cups
Yeah we fell in love
Picture To Burn March 4, 2011
Song: Picture To Burn
Artist: Taylor Swift
Year: 2008
Lyrics:
State the obvious,
I didn’t get my perfect fantasy
I realized you love yourself
More that you could ever love me
So go and tell your friends
That I’m obsessive and crazy,
That’s fine
I’ll tell mine
You’re gay,
And by the way,
I hate that stupid old pickup truck,
You never let me drive
You’re a redneck, heartbreak
Who’s really been a lie
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I’m concerned,
You’re just another picture to burn.
There’s no time for tears
I’m just sitting here planning my revenge
There’s nothing stopping me
From going out with all of your best friends
And if you come around saying’ sorry to me
My daddy’s going to show you how sorry you’ll be
‘Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck,
You never let me drive
You’re a redneck, heartbreak
Who’s really been a lie, yeah
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I’m concerned,
You’re just another picture to burn.
And if you’re missing me
You better keep it to yourself
‘Cause coming back around here
Would be bad for your health
‘Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck,
You never let me drive
You’re a redneck, heartbreak
Who’s really been a lie, yeah
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
In case you haven’t heard,
I really, really hate that stupid old pickup truck,
You never let me drive
You’re a redneck, heartbreak
Who’s really been a lie, yeah
So watch me strike a match
On all my wasted time
As far as I’m concerned,
You’re just another picture to burn.
Burn, burn, burn, baby burn.
Just another picture to burn
Baby burn
Waiting On A Woman
Song: Waiting On A Woman
Artist: Brad Paisley
Year: 2005
Lyrics:
Sittin’ on a bench at West Town Mall
He sat down in his overalls and asked me
”You waitin’ on a woman?”
I nodded yeah and said, ”How ’bout you?”
He said, ”Son since nineteen fifty-two I’ve been
Waitin’ on a woman.”
When I picked her up for our first date
I told her I’d be there at eight
And she came down the stairs at eight-thirty
She said, ”I’m sorry that I took so long
Didn’t like a thing that I tried on.”
But let me tell you son she sure looked pretty
Yeah, she’ll take her time but I don’t mind
Waitin’ on a woman.
He said, ”The wedding took a year to plan
You talk about an anxious man, I was nervous
Waitin’ on a woman.”
And then he nudged my arm like old men do
And said, ”I’ll say this about the honeymoon, it was worth it
Waitin’ on a woman.”
And I don’t guess we’ve been anywhere
She hasn’t made us late I swear
Sometimes she does it just ’cause she can do it
Boy it’s just a fact of life
It’ll be the same with your young wife
Might as well go on and get used to it
She’ll take her time ’cause you don’t mind
Waitin’ on a woman.
I’ve read somewhere statistics show
The man’s always the first to go
And that makes sense ’cause I know she won’t be ready
So when it finally comes my time
And I get to the other side
I’ll find myself a bench, if they’ve got any
I hope she takes her time, ’cause I don’t mind
Waitin’ on a woman.
Honey, take your time, cause I don’t mind
Waitin’ on a woman…
Look It Up March 3, 2011
Song: Look It Up
Artist: Ashton Shepherd
Year: 2010
Lyrics:
The word is faithful, look it up
It don’t mean sneakin’ around
Behind my back like you ain’t gettin’ enough
How ’bout forever, just look it up
It means through thick and thin and
Pitchin’ in even when the times get tough
The word is easy, look it up
And you’ll see a picture of that piece of trash
Ridin’ ’round in your pickup truck
Let’s try liar, just look it up
But you’ll need boots to wade through all the bull
You tell me when you come home drunk
It’s just like you to be so clueless
Cause you never thought I’d do this
I said go, goodbye, get lost, get out, get gone
The word is over
Look it up
You said you’re sober, look it up
It’s right next to hell is freezin’ over, flyin’ pigs,
And all that stuff
And how bout baby, look it up
It’s what you call me and it’s how you act
Every time I call your bluff
It’s just like you to keep denyin’
Save your whinin’ and your cryin’
I said go, goodbye, get lost, get out, get gone
The word is over
Look it up
The word’s forgiveness, look it up
It’s what Jesus has in store for you
But I don’t no matter what
Quit your beggin’ and your prayin’
Can’t you hear what I’ve been sayin’?
I said go, goodbye, get lost, get out, get gone
The word is over
Look it up
Asshole
Just look it up, look it up
