Come on

I said, "Hey girl, what's your name
Haven't I seen you before?
I recognize them dark green eyes
When you dosie doed across the floor"

"Are you alone or are you with someone?"
She said, "As a matter of fact I'm not"
So I took her hand that's when it all began
And we headed towards the parking lot

And she said, "Hey boy, do you mind taking me home tonight
'Cuz I ain't never seen a country boy with tires on his truck this high
I said, "Climb on up but honey watch the cup that I spitttin' my dip inside
And hold on tight 'cuz it's gonna be wilder then any eight second ride"

We went ridin' around rockin'
To the sound of a country boy can survive
And I knew then she was my kinda girl
'Cuz she was singin' every single line

Then she slid on over put my hand on her shoulder
And I asked her what she wanted to do
She said, "It really don't matter where we go
Just as long as I'm ridin' with you"

She said, "Hey boy, do you mind taking me home tonight
'Cuz I ain't never seen a country boy with tires on his truck this high
I said, "Climb on up but honey watch the cup that I spittin' my dip inside
And hold on tight 'cuz it's gonna be wilder then any eight second ride"

So we headed out to Old Tobacco Road
Put the tailgate down and we made love
She said "A true country boy is hard to find
But I found one wilder then any eight second ride"

She said, "Hey boy, do you mind taking me home tonight
'Cuz I ain't never seen a country boy with tires on his truck this high
I said, "Climb on up but honey watch the cup that I spittin' my dip inside
And hold on tight 'cuz it's gonna be wilder then any eight second ride
Yeah, hold on tight 'cuz it's gonna be wilder then any eight second ride"

The night is early and the sky's still blue
Ain't even got to where we're going to
And you're nibblin' and whisperin' in my ear
What you wanna do?
Baby I do too
Well I don't wanna take this night too fast
It's just beginning, wait a minute, lets make it last

(Chorus)
Easy does it
We're gonna take our time
Girl we got all night
No need to rush it
Let's just kick back and relax
Slow it on down, soak up this moment
Easy does it

The summer sun is finally going down
Parked on this back road not a soul around
And we're kissing and listening to the radio
When "Let's Get It On," just had to come on
Well all day long I've been playin' it cool
You say boy I wanna, when you gonna, make your move?

(Repeat Chorus 2X)

Ahh...easy does it

I learned the hard way real early in life
That money sure don't grow on a tree
And there's a few things that a dollar can't buy
The best things in life, they come free

So girl I can't buy you a big diamond ring
No house on a hill full of life's finer things
And I'll tell you right now there's a whole lot that I just can't do
Oh, but baby don't think I can't love you

And when I get home after workin' all day
I'm beat down girl, I'm dead on my feet
But as tired as I am if you wanna play
Well, playin' sounds real good to me

'Cause girl I can't buy you a big diamond ring
No house on a hill full of life's finer things
And I'll tell you right now there's a whole lot that I just can't do
Oh, but baby don't think I can't love you

So girl I can't buy you a big diamond ring
No house on a hill full of life's finer things
And I'll tell you right now there's a whole lot that I just can't do
Oh, but baby, baby, oh baby don't think I can't love you

Well I love the way she dances around
In her underwear
She probably woke the neighbors up by now
Ah but she don’t care

Oh what a pretty face
Spillin’ her wine all over the place
Shaking everything she’s got around
Her towel comin’ off and her hair comin’ down

She’s got that look in her eye
She’s drivin’ me crazy, drivin’ me crazy
And I can’t believe she’s
Beautifully, playfully, hopelessly, faithfully mine

She’s prettier than all the other girls
With no make up on
She’s a cupcake, she’s a milkshake,
She’s cool whip, cherry on top
Ah but no for long

Oh I’m a lucky guy
For the life of me I don’t know why
She loves me but I know she does
Cause she shows me every time we make love

She’s got that look in her eye
She’s drivin’ me crazy, drivin’ me crazy
And I can’t believe she’s
Beautifully, playfully, hopelessly, faithfully mine
Oh she’s mine, all mine

She’s got that look in her eye
She’s drivin’ me crazy, drivin’ me crazy
And I can’t believe she’s
Beautifully, playfully, hopelessly, faithfully mine

Oh yes she’s mine, all mine
Ya well I love the way she dances around
Oh she’s prettier than all the other girls
She’s a cupcake, she’s a milkshake,
She’s cool whip, a cherry on top

[No lyrics]

this old boat kept us afloat
all those years on the lake
I remember that day I heard my best friend say
this is probably the last trip I'll make,
cause the doctors are saying it aint looking good and they doubt that I'll make it to spring
and it's a hell of a note when you never know what tomorrow might bring

CHORUS
so I dont buy green bananas
I dont play the lottery
right now's all I've got goin'
and that's just fine for me
and I dont own an umbrella
if it's rains I'm gonna get wet
so I dont buy green bananas
cause I dont plan that far ahead

it aint the same on these hot summer days
when I'm out here fishin alone
well sometimes I might get a few bites
but then there's days that I don't
so I just roll with the flow
and I rock with the waves
catch me some rays from the sun
and like my friend said
I'm going to live while I can, take each day as it comes

CHORUS
so I dont buy green bananas
I dont play the lottery
right now is all I've got goin'
and that's just fine for me
and I dont own an umbrella
if it's rains I'm gonna get wet
and I dont buy green bananas
cause I dont plan that far ahead

I dont own an umbrella
if it's rains I'm gonna get wet
and I don't buy green bananas
cause I don't plan that far ahead

box of sunshine, bottle of rain
fistful of wind from a west-texas plain
tell me you want it, baby, that's all you've gotta do
I'll do anything for you

I'd walk the Mississippi, I'd drown in your kiss
catch a star in a mason jar, so you could make your wish
whatever that may be, baby, I'll make it come true
I'll do anything for you

CHORUS
You are the reason I live my religion,
the air that I breathe, you're that deep in me
and I'll give you my heart and my soul,
there's no fire I wouldn't walk through
I'll do anything for you

I'd call on the nightingale to write you a song
I'll sing you to sleep, baby, and I'll wake you at dawn
I'll wrap you in sweet dreams the whole night through
I'll do anything for you

CHORUS
You are the reason I live my religion,
the air that I breathe, you're that deep in me
and I'll give you my heart and my soul,
there's no fire I wouldn't walk through
I'll do anything for you

In the shadows of the last sunset,
I'll bargain with God and say, take me instead
after all baby it's the least I can do
I'll do anything for you
I'd do anything for you

It's one way in, it's one way out
it's one stop, one cop, one bar town
where its eight-ball winner breaks, loser racks
it's the same old cars and the same old trucks
the same old coach with the same bad luck
but on friday nights the home team side is packed
it's every reason I left and every reason I go back

CHORUS
yeah it's the same old, same old, nothing's changed
where everybody knows your name
it's a dirt road trip down memory lane
and old flame I cant get passed
it's every reason that I left and every reason I go back

it's the same old questions from my momma's mouth
it's my dads voice "hey boy" just wearing me out
about "yes, sir yes ma'am" you dont talk back
it's the same cheap buddies with the same cheap beer
with the same cheap shots that I always fear
and them same old stories still get the same old laughs
it's evey reason that I left and every reason I go back

CHORUS x2
yeah it's the same old, same old, nothing's changed
where everybody knows your name
it's a dirt road trip down memory lane
and old flame I cant get passed
it's every reason that I left and every reason I go back

oh I cant wait to get back

Hey you kids, bullying the kids down at your school
one of these days you're gonna grow up, be ashamed
who gave you the right to decide who is and who aint cool
who could sit at your table and be on your team and play your games

CHORUS
let 'em shine, shine like a diamond
give 'em time and you'll fine theres not cover rose
God's light shines for everybody
so get outta His way
nothin grows in shadows

hey fathers, screamin' at your kids from the bleachers
saying "quit actin like a sissy, suck it up and win"
maybe you ought'a stop and think about what you're teaching
yeah you talk about a loser, I dont think it's them

CHORUS
let 'em shine, shine like a diamond
give 'em time and you'll fine theres not cover rose
God's light shines for everybody
so get outta His way
nothin grows in shadows

well I aint sayin' I aint been a shadow myself
a dark cloud that rained on somebody else
well I learned a lesson that I need to tell
the doctor that saved my mommas life
helped beat her cancer, made sure she got well
was a kid I went to school with all my life
man I used to give him hell

CHORUS
let 'em shine, shine like a diamond
give 'em time and you'll fine theres not cover rose
God's light shines for everybody
so get outta His way
nothin grows in shadows

oh get outta His way
nothin grows in shadows
