A Long Way

[Verse 1]
Six beers and five guys and if I remember right, it was a
Wednesday when we got our buzz on for second hand six pack
Half smoked soft pack, light it up boys, take a drag
And when I fought that cough off everyone else thought I was so damn cool

[Pre-Chorus]
But my head was spinnin' like a tilt-a-whirl
Yeah man, it really rocked my world

[Chorus]
Back when everything seemed just a little bit stronger
Back when the weekend lasted a little longer
I can't tell you why they did, but things seemed to never end back then
Oh way back when, when a little went a long way

[Verse 2]
One girl, 45 bucks was all it took that night
Hit the steakhouse makeout and the movies way up in the back
Credits roll on pace,to make it all the way to second base
Tried to play it cool like it was nothin' new and she didn't have a clue

[Pre-Chorus]
But my head was spinnin' like a tilt-a-whirl
Yeah man, she really rocked my world

[Chorus]
Back when things seemed just a little bit stronger
Back when the weekend lasted a little longer
I can't tell you why they did, things seemed to never end back then
Oh way back when, when a little went a long way

[Chorus]
Back when everything seemed just a little bit stronger
Back when the weekend lasted a little longer
I can't tell you why they did, but things seemed to never end back then
Oh way back when, when a little went a long long way
A long way

Beautiful Crazy

[Verse 1]
Her day starts with a coffee and ends with a wine
Takes forever to get ready so she's never on time for anything
But she gets that comb, get me that look in her eye
Well it kinda scares me the way that she drives me wild
But she drives me wild

[Chorus]
Beautiful, crazy, she can't help but amaze me
The way that she dances, ain't afraid to take chances
And wears her heart on her sleeve
Yeah, she's crazy but her crazy's beautiful to me

[Verse 2]
She makes plans for the weekend, can't wait to go out
Till she changes her mind, says 'let's stay on the couch and watch TV'
And she falls asleep

[Chorus]
Beautiful, crazy, she can't help but amaze me
The way that she dances, ain't afraid to take chances
And wears her heart on her sleeve
Yeah, she's crazy but her crazy's beautiful to me

[Bridge]
She's unpredictable, unforgettable
It's unusual, unbelievable
How I'm such a fool, yeah I'm such a fool for her

[Chorus]
Beautiful, crazy, she can't help but amaze me
The way that she dances, ain't afraid to take chances
And wears her heart on her sleeve
Yeah, she's crazy, she's crazy, she's crazy
But her crazy's beautiful to me
Her crazy's beautiful to me

Houston, We Got A Problem

[Verse 1]
This is my kinda town, this is my kinda place
I wouldn't mind hangin' 'round for more than just a couple days
I got a 12th floor room with a killer view of the empty Astrodome
Got a tab at the bar downstairs, but all I can think about is home

[Chorus]
I got new boots covered in red dirt, a "Don't Mess With Texas" t-shirt
And a Lonestar postcard postmarked with "missin' you"
It's got the biggest sky you've ever seen, the coldest beer you'd ever drink
But I still feel like I landed on the moon, 'cause it ain't got you
Houston, we got a problem

[Verse 2]
You should've seen 19th Street, you should've seen a midnight rodeo
The way them saloon doors swing, when they line dance to "Copperhead Road"
Some like the lager down here, that'll make you feel the way all them cowboys do
I wish I was an outlaw, but all I can think about is you

[Chorus]
I got new boots covered in red dirt, a "Don't Mess With Texas" t-shirt
And a Lonestar postcard postmarked with "missin' you"
It's got the biggest sky you've ever seen, the coldest beer you'd ever drink
But I still feel like I landed on the moon, 'cause it ain't got you
Houston, we got a problem

[Outro]
It's got the biggest sky you've ever seen, the coldest beer you'd ever drink
But I still feel like I landed on the moon, 'cause it ain't got you
Houston, we got a problem
We got a problem
We got a problem

Hurricane

Hadn't had a good time
since you know when.
Got talked into goin' out

with hopes you were stayin' in.
I was feeling like myself for the first time,
in a long time.
'Till I bumped into some of your friends,
over there talkin' to mine.
Then you roll in with your hair in the wind,
baby without warning
I was doin' alright but just your sight
had my heart stormin'
The moon went hiding,
stars quit shining,
rain was dropping,
thunder 'n lightning.
You wrecked my whole world when you came,
and hit me like a hurricane.
You hit me like a hurricane.
Knew it was gonna be a long night,
from the moment when,
we locked eyes over whiskey and ice,
talkin' 'bout us again.
If I woulda just layed my drink down,
and walked out,
I wouldn't be in my truck,
driving us to your house.
But you rolled in with your hair in the wind,
baby without warning.
I was doin alright but just your sight
had my heart stormin'
The moon went hiding,
stars quit shining,
rain was dropping,
thunder 'n lightning,
you wrecked my whole world when you came,
and hit me like a hurricane.
You hit me like a hurricane.
Yeah we go to 5
with your smile, blew me away,
and girl it ain't but midnight,
she gon kill the lights,
bring my heart back to your bedside.
Then you roll in with your hair in the wind,
baby without warning.
I was doin' alright but just your sight
had my heart stormin'
The moon went hiding,
stars quit shining,
rain was dropping,
thunder 'n lightning.
You wrecked my whole world when you came,
and hit me like a hurricane.
You hit me like a hurricane.
Hit me like a hurricane

I Know She Ain't Ready

You wearing that black dress, coat, and cowboy boots
He was there, but I didn't care, to busy staring at you
In the pouring rain, with the blue lights flashin', in the hills of Appalachian
Close to tears with your makeup smeared, I asked you what had happened

[Chorus:]
But I know she ain't ready
She won't be for awhile
And he broke her down
When I'm around
I can see it in her smile
She's finally getting closer
It's just to plain to see
And I know she ain't ready
But that's alright with me

You wearing that red dress, pearls, and those high heels
Like the way he made you look, you look the way it made you feel
So I said to you I sure like to do this one here
You said me too, but I'm just not over him

[Chorus]

She started calling me baby, and two years later I was down on a knee
With a ring in hand, I said "I'm your man, and girl, will you marry me?"

She said you know that I'm ready
And I have been for awhile
When the bells sound and you turn around
I'll be walking down the aisle
This will only bring us closer
It's just to plain to see
And I know that we're ready
So that's alright with me
That's alright with me

Let The Moonshine

It's been a long night
With a heavy load
And now my high beams are shining on my babies road
Gonna pick up some clay on the tread of these tires
Have ourselves a hell of a night
Look up in that Carolina sky

[Chorus:]
Let that moonshine, all night, take your breath away
Like an old sweet song daddy used to play
And it takes me back to a simpler place and time
When we used to kick back
And let the moonshine
So let the moonshine

It's been a long time
Since we felt that creek
Running cold and clear over our bare feet
Baby you don't know that this right here
Is the same water my home man used in his still
I still remember what he used to say

[Chorus]

It burns me up and lights a fire in my soul
Well get you a sip
And let the whiskey take control

[Chorus]

Must've Never Met You

[Verse 1]
Just pick yourself up, dust yourself off, they say it ain't that hard
But just puttin' one foot in front of the other ain't gettin' me too far
This movin' on ain't comin' along the way they said it would

[Chorus]
I guess whoever said the grass is greener must've never seen the other side
What don't kill you makes you stronger sure sounds like a lie
And whoever said that time heals everything and everything will be alright?
Whoever said it ain't the end of the world, you can find somebody new
Must've never met you, must've never met you

[Verse 2]
Must've never heard you say you'd never leave me, then watch you walk away
Must've never fell as hard as I did 'cause [?] ain't what it said
Yeah baby what meant o be maybe you're better off alone

[Chorus]
I guess whoever said the grass is greener must've never seen the other side
What don't kill you makes you stronger sure sounds like a lie
And whoever said that time heals everything and everything will be alright?
Whoever said it ain't the end of the world, you can find somebody new
Must've never met you, must've never met you

[Chorus]
I guess whoever said the grass is greener must've never seen the other side
What don't kill you makes you stronger still sounds like a lie
And whoever said that time heals everything and everything will be alright?
Whoever said it ain't the end of the world, you know she ain't the only girl
You win, you lose, you find somebody new
Must've never met you, must've never met you

One Number Away

Are you sitting at home all alone trying to fall asleep?
Are you staring a hole through your phone praying that it rings?
Are you watching a movie that you've seen a thousand times?
Maybe playing some Mayer getting lost in your favorite lines?

If you're anything like me
You just might be doing whatever it takes to drown out the noise
But I just wanna hear your voice

And I'm one number away from calling to you
I said I was through, but I'm dying, inside
Got my head in a mess, girl I confess
I lied when I said, "I'm leaving and not coming back"
Might be the whiskey or the midnight rain
But everywhere I go I see your face
In my brain, dial it up, everything I want to say
But I'm still one number away

Are you stuck at a red light with a Marlboro Light on your lips?
Does the smoke in your mirror get clearer without my kiss?
Are you changing the station replacing our favorite song?
Maybe it's a mistake, hit the brakes, I'm moving on

If you're anything like me
You just might be doing whatever it takes to outrun the storm
But I'm almost out that door

And I'm one number away from calling to you
I said I was through, but I'm dying, inside
Got my head in a mess, girl, I confess
I lied when I said, "I'm leaving and not coming back"
Might be the whiskey or the midnight rain
But everywhere I go I see your face
In my brain, dial it up, everything I want to say
But I'm still one number away

Will you pick up when I call?
Or just forget we loved at all?
We don't have to talk, I just wanna hear your voice

And I'm one number away from calling to you
I said I was through, but I'm dying, inside
Got my head in a mess, girl, I confess
I lied when I said, "I'm leaving and not coming back"
Might be the whiskey or the midnight rain
But everywhere I go I see your face
In my brain, dial it up, anything I want to say
But I'm still one number away
Away
Away
Yea I'm still one number away

The Way She Rides

Screamed into the driveway, with my foot stuck on the gas
Had the Crown mixed up in a Dixie cup, when she hopped into the cab
She said "Boy what you got in store, what we getting into tonight?"
Hell, I don't care, I'll go anywhere, just as long as you're by my side

[Chorus:]
Whether she's sitting shotgun with her hair done
Or with the seat leaned back with the radio on
Or the backstreets, in the backseat
Those baby blue eyes staring back at me
Whether it's in park or it's in drive
I love the way she rides

So we hit that ground a running throwing coughs into the wind
Well it wasn't long before that drink was gone, and she was shaking that ass again
She said find somewhere dark where we can park, and put a hurting on this bottle
So we said goodnight to the city lights, and kicked in full throttle

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

When It Rains It Pours

Sunday morning, man,
she woke up fighting mad
Bitching and moaning on and on 'bout the time I had

And by Tuesday, you could say that girl was good as gone
Then when Thursday came around,
I was all alone

So I went for a drive to clear my mind,
ended up at a Shell on I-65

Then I won a hundred bucks on a scratch off ticket
Bought two twelve packs and a tank of gas with it
She swore they were a waist of time,
oh, but she was wrong
I was caller number 5 on a radio station,
won a 4-day, 3-night, beach vacation
Deep sea, senorita,
fishing down in Panama
And I ain't gotta see my ex future mother-in-law anymore
Oh lord, when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours

Now she was sure real quick to up and apologize
When she heard about my new found luck on that FM dial
And it's crazy how this now just seems to come in when
What I thought was gonna be the death of me was my saving grace

It's got me thinking that her leaving is the only logical reason

That I got the last spot in the Hooter's parking lot
And the waitress left her number on my check with a heart
She p***** up on the first ring when I gave her a call
And I only spent five bucks at the Moose Club Raffle
Won a used four-wheeler and three free passes
For me and two of my buddies to play a round of golf
And I ain't gotta see my ex future mother-in-law anymore
Oh lord, when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours

Well I've been on a hell of a redneck road for three weeks now
And it all started on the day that she walked out

Then I won a hundred bucks on a scratch off ticket
Bought two twelve packs and a tank of gas with it
She swore they were a waist of time, oh, but she was wrong
I was caller number 5 on a radio station, won a 4-day, 3-night, beach vacation
Deep sea, senorita, fishing down in Panama
And I ain't gotta see my ex future mother-in-law anymore
Oh lord, when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours
