Josh Turner Album

I got a home down on the river
I’m married to the woman of my dreams
Got a good truck that gets me down the highway
Everything is perfect or so it seems
Momma and daddy come by sometimes
And everything is fine
My old dog does a little singing
Late at night when the moon gets bright
Sunday morning hear the church bells ringing
Let us go and see who’s getting baptized
We gonna take us a Sunday drive
Cause everything is fine

Everything is fine, fine, fine
Through the sunshine and the rain
I got a peace of mind
You know I can’t complain
I make it a point to thank the Lord
When I got Him on the line
I’m feeling good and everything is fine

Got the same job down at the warehouse
Ain’t never been rich but I sleep at night
Got a little girl that looks like her mamma
She likes it when her daddy tucks her in real tight
One night this week we’re gonna have a fish fry

Cause everything is fine, fine, fine
Through the sunshine and the rain
I got a peace of mind
You know I can’t complain
I make it a point to thank the Lord
When I got Him on the line
I’m feeling good and everything is fine
Wahoo!!

I make it a point to thank the Lord
When I got Him on the line
I’m feeling good and everything is fine
I’m feeling good and everything is fine

Yeah

When I look in her eyes
It ain't no suprise
Sparks start a flyin' like the 4th of July
She gets me so hot my heart starts a pumpin'
When we get to kissin' there ain't no stopin'
When it comes to love she ain't no slacker
My little dralin' is a Fircracker

When I light the fuse I gotta get back quick
You gotta be careful with a dynamite stick
Son of a gun she's fun to handle
and she packs a punch like a roman candle
She's a pack of black cats in a red paper wrapper
My little darlin' is a Firecracker

[chorus]
We might not oughta take a roll in the hay
Cause we'll burn the barn down a one of these days
We're a match made in Heaven and it ain't no joke
But I'd sure hate to see it go up in smoke
We gotta go thing goin' and if feels so right
She's a Firecracker
She's the light of my life

She goes off with a great big bang
Boys I tell ya' it's a beautiful thing
When she takes off you better hang on tight
She's a blonde bottle rocket in the middle of the night
When she makes love she's a heartattacker
My little darlin' is a Firecracker

[chorus]

uhuh

Yea, we gotta good thing going and it feels so right
She's a Firecarcker
She's the light of my life

We gotta good thing goin' and it feels so right
She's a Firecracker
She's the light of my life

She's a Firecracker she's the light of my life

Firecracker
Fircracker

Ooooooo

Firecracker [sssssss]
Firecracker

Bang

Firecracker
Firecracker

All the things I felt and never shared
All the times that she was lonely with me there
The tears I wouldn't let fall from my eyes
And how I let her go without a fight

The reasons I'm alone I know by heart
But I don't want to spend forever in the dark
I swear next time I'll hang on for dear life
If love ever gives me another try

There's no changing things that we regret
The best that we can hope for is one more chance
If the hands of time could just move in reverse
I wouldn't make the same mistake again with her

The reasons I'm alone I know by heart
But I don't want to spend forever in the dark
I swear next time I'll hang on for dear life
If love ever gives me another try

The reasons I'm alone I know by heart
But I don't want to spend forever in the dark
I swear next time I'll hang on for dear life
If love ever gives me another try

There's so many things that I need to do
Seems like nothing gets done when I'm feeling so blue
And it's so hard to handle this absolute truth
That you're so not around and I'm so into you

Chorus:
You're so not my baby, it's making me crazy
It's breaking my heart and my world half in two
You're so not my baby, hey, I should be okay
But you know what, I'm so not over you

I keep ringing and ringing your old telephone
Seems like the more that it rings, the more that you're gone
I oughta hang up and just let you go
But a voice in my heart keeps saying hello

Chorus:

I've been searching and searching but it just gets me down
'Cause your love and affection is nowhere to be found

Chorus:

Know what, I'm so not over you
So not my baby

Just about a mile off o' Thirty One
There's a whole lot o' nothin' gettin' done
Blue-collar rednecks feeling fine
A couple o' sips of a year old shine
Everyday's about feeling good
Way down yonder in the trailerhood

Danny Ray's fishin' in his one-man boat
If he stayed gone no one would know
Darlene's boyfriend came home drunk
Ol' boy's luggage is loaded in the truck
That's one less two-timer up to no good
Way down yonder in the trailerhood

The trailerhood, the trailerhood
Ain't nobody doin' what they should
One thing is understood
You can be yourself in the trailerhood

If you wanna see a mobile home
Get turned into a honky tonk
Turn your truck south off o' Thirty One
Where the backwoods boys git-er-done
It's a single wide party box back in the woods
Way down yonder in the trailerhood

Yeah, the trailerhood, the trailerhood Ain't nobody doin' what they should
One thing is understood
You can be yourself in the trailerhood

I said, the trailerhood, the trailerhood
Ain't nobody doin' what they should
one thing is understood
You can be yourself in the trailerhood

Yeah, you can be yourself in the trailerhood

Every time you shake your hips
Baby, I go crazy
When you kiss me on my lips
Baby, I go crazy
When you call me on the phone
Your sexy talking turns me on
You make it tough just holding on
You got me going crazy
Baby, I go crazy

I see it coming and I can't help myself
You give me loving like nobody else
You got me falling now, I'm calling for help
Girl, I'm going crazy

When you put on that party dress
Baby, I go crazy
You got me hooked, I must confess

You got me going crazy
Baby, I go crazy

I see it coming and I can't help myself
You give me loving like nobody else
You got me falling now, I'm calling for help
Girl, I'm going crazy
Baby, I go crazy

I see it coming and I can't help myself
You give me loving like nobody else
You got me falling now, I'm calling for help
Girl, I'm going crazy

You really know how to drive me wild
Baby, I go crazy
Crawling 'round just like a child
Baby, I go crazy
Darlin', I go crazy
Baby, I go crazy

I used to think that I was living big
Bet my money on almost anything
Time and time, I got caught struggling
Oh, I had plans, I had dreams

And I had an open bar policy
Spending time tryin' to numb the pain
Lost my family just to gain a friend
Oh, strange faces I didn't need

I'm on a highway
Ain't going no place
Ain't got nowhere to run
I think this deal is done
Traveling goin' nowhere fast

My folks used to tell me
Turner stop and think
Don't waste your whole life
Doing selfish things

Hurting your loved ones
Just to get yourself a stir
There comes a time when
You gotta let it be

I thank the Lord
He had his hands on me
Not really thinking
I had sunken deep

I looked all around
And I was standing all alone
I had dug my myself a hole

I'm on a highway
Ain't going no place
Ain't got nowhere to run
I think this deal is done
Traveling goin' nowhere fast

And I looked around
And I was standing all alone
I had dug my myself a hole

I'm on a highway
Ain't going no place
Ain't got nowhere to run
I think this deal is done
Traveling goin' nowhere fast

I'm on a highway
A lonesome byway
You know, I don't know where to start
With changes on my heart
Traveling goin' nowhere fast
Traveling goin' nowhere fast
Traveling goin' nowhere fast

Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss
It's better my darling, I promise you this
The next time I hold you, I'm not letting go
Will you wait for me darling, I need to know

Well, you know I'm a sailor and tomorrow we sail
It's a hard way of living but I know it well
And if I surrender my life to the sea
You can marry another it's alright with me

Though we won't be together again 'til the spring
Just imagine the treasures I'll bring

Come lay with me, stay with me, soon I'll be gone
I will remember you all winter long
And when I return to the one that I miss
Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss
The sweeter the kiss

When the mornings are warm and the valleys are green
I'll come back from wherever I've been

Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss
It's better my darling, I promise you this
the next time I hold you, I'm not letting go
I will give up the ocean forever, I know
Forever I know

Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss
It's better my darling, I promise you this
the next time I hold you, I'm not letting go
I will give up the ocean forever, I know
Forever, I know

If you told me that you love me
I would feel so proud
If you'd let me hold you honey
I'd holler out loud
I'll never love another even if I can
Oh, come to me baby, I'm a one woman man

Chorus:
Won't you let me, baby
Just a kind of hang around
I'll always love you honey
And I'll never let you down
I'll never love another
Even if I can
Well, come to me baby
I'm a one woman man

I'd climb the highest mountain
If it reached up to the sky
To prove that I love you
I'd jump off and fly
I'd even swim the ocean
From shore to shore
To prove that I love you
A little bit more

Repeat Chorus

If you told me that you love me
I would feel so proud
If you'd let me hold you honey
I'd holler out loud
I'll never love another even if I can
Oh, come to me baby, I'm a one woman man

Repeat Chorus

Come to me baby
I'm a one woman man

Soulmate
Until the end of time
You're my soulmate
I'll love you till I get to heaven's gate
And if I go first sweetheart
I'll wait
'Cause I know I'll never find another
Soulmate

Your love
There's no telling where I'd be
Without your love
Stumbling in the dark
Would be pretty rough
When I get down you're the one
That lifts me up
I thank the Lord above
For your love

Chorus:
In this day and time
The right one is hard to find
Girl, that's why I'm holding on to you
Each and every night
When we turn out the light
There's no mistaking what we have is true

Soulmate
I hope that we grow old together
Solemate
In the good and bad
Even through the heartache
We've got a special bond
That'll never break
'Cause darling you and I are
Soulmates

Repeat Chorus:

Solemate
Until the end of time
You're my soulmate
I'll love you till I get to
Heaven's gate
We've got a special bond
That'll never break
'Cause darling you and I are
Soulmates
Yeah, I know I'll never find another
Soulmate

He always wore those worn out flip-flops
Spent hours in his Daddy's workshop
he loved being on the water
Fishing with His friends
He always listened to the old folks
When they'd tell stories and crack jokes
Didn't talk back to his Mama
When she got onto Him

Oh, that's just the way He was raised
Had to finish all His chores 'fore He could go outside and play
they always went to church that's were he learned how to pray
And that's just the way He was raised

He grew His hair out when He got older
Grew it clear down to His shoulders
Started hanging with the outcasts
When He went off to town
Some called Him a troublemaker
Even some said a lawbreaker
No matter how they talked about Him
He never put nobody down

'Cause that's just the way He was raised
When people start to gossip, He'd just walk away
He always loved his neighbor no matter what they'd say
Oh, that's just the way He was raised

On a cross, on a hill
That longhaired boy was killed
All our sins washed away
When He walked out of that grave

Oh, that's just the way He was raised
there's no way we can measure
The sacrifice He made
He knew He had to die
For our debt to be paid
Oh, that's just the way He was raised

It took the hand of God to roll the stone away
And that's just the way He was raised
Yeah, that's just the way He was raised

I grew up in South Carolina
Singing all them bluegrass and country songs
I'd sing from Hannah down to Charlestowne
Getting all the people to sing along to what I call

South Carolina low country
Southern words with an old Sandlapper tune
Palmetto trees swaying in that Atlantic breeze
Reaching up to touch the crescent moon
South Carolina low country
Is the music that comes outta me

I remember standing in the warm sunshine
Working my fingers to the bone
Singing as I suckered down that ole drag row
I came up with a music all my own it;s what I call

South Carolina low country
Southern words with an old Sandlapper tune
Palmetto trees swaying in that Atlantic breeze
Reaching up to touch the crescent moon
South Carolina low country
Is the music that comes outta me

God bless Wade Hampton and The Swamp Fox
Their strength will stand the test of time
They fought for a flag, a state, and a way of life
because of that you will always find me singing my

South Carolina low country
Oh, the sound in my heart will always be
South Carolina low country
That's the music that comes outta me
It's the music coming outta me
