Альбом Brooks & Dunn

(Ronnie Dunn)

I'm a hard workin' man
I wear a steel hard hat
I can ride, rope, hammer and paint
Do things with my hands that most men can't
I can't get ahead no matter how hard I try
I'm gettin' really good at barely gettin' by

Got everything I own
By the sweat of my brow
From my four-wheel drive to my cowboy boots
I owe it all to my blue collar roots
I feel like I'm workin' overtime on a runaway train
I've got to bust loose from this ball and chain

Chorus:
I'm a hard, hard workin man
I got it all on the line
For a peace of the promised land
I'm burnin' my candle at both ends
'Bout the only way to keep the fire goin'
Is to outrun the wind

Come Friday night
I like to party hard
I carry on with the Cadillac cuties
Spend my whole week's pay on some weekend beauty
Come Monday mornin' I'm the first to arrive
I ain't nothin' but business from nine till five

(Repeat chorus)

I can't wait to get up in the mornin'
And do it all over again

(Ronnie Dunn/Don Cook)

Hello Miss Heartbroke
Sit your sweet self down
It's good to see your dancin' feet back out on the town
Rumor has it you've had trouble with your man
I've had trouble of my own, I think I understand

Chorus:
We'll put out your old flame
We'll build a bigger fire
I'll pick up where he let you down and take you so much higher
And if his memory comes around
And you think you still care
We'll burn that bridge when we get there

Come on let your hair down we'll have us a time
He had his chance with you now all I want is mine
Give me half an hour or just a dance or two
And you'll forget old what's his name and how he walked out on you

(Repeat chorus twice)

We'll burn that bridge when we get there

(Kent M. Robbins/Jim Messina)

Up in the city it's crazy and concrete cold
Living life at the speed of light leaves dark in your soul
When every minute's got a heart attack in it
It's time to leave it alone
So I don't think we're gonna beat this postcard home

We're down to the worm in the bottle
The chips and the salsa are gone
Now we know why J.T. sang "Oh Mexico"
We're two days south of the border
Feeling too good to care why
These Mexican minutes get longer and longer
As the days goes by

We're dropping our worries
And pickin up Espanol
Down here the sunsets are red
The tequila is gold
Life is sublime here on Mexican time
They've got something we need to learn
If we don't show for a while
Don't be concerned

We're down to the worm in the bottle
The chips and the salsa are gone
Now we know why J.T. sang "Oh Mexico"
We're two days south of the border
Feeling too good to care why
These Mexican minutes get longer and longer
As the days goes by

We're down to the worm in the bottle
The chips and the salsa are gone
Now we know why J.T. sang "Oh Mexico"
We're two days south of the border
Feeling too good to care why
These Mexican minutes get longer and longer
As the days goes by

These Mexican minutes get longer and longer

(Ronnie Dunn)

Well I'm flyin' high and feelin' low
Drinkin' hard and dancin' slow
I'm gonna shine my buckle to George Jones
Heartaches are hot on my heels, bartender the race is on

She's gone for good and I'm goin' to town
I'm gonna live it up, ya livin' her down
José pick me up and get me on my feet
So I can scoot a boot to that two-four jukebox beat

I'm heartbroke out of my mind
Pardon me boys if I get a little out of line
It's just temporary insanity
Till I get over what she did to me
I'll be heartbroke out of my mind

B.Y.O.T
I brought my own trouble tonight
I'm gonna get this bein' done wrong down right
Ya saddle me up boys I'm goin' in
They say when you fall off, well climb right back up again

I'm heartbroke out of my mind
Pardon me boys if I get a little out of line
It's just temporary insanity
Till I get over what she did to me
I'll be heartbroke out of my mind

It's just temporary insanity
Till I get over what she did to me
I'll be heartbroke out of my mind
Oh I'm just heartbroke out of my mind

(Ronnie Dunn)

She looked so good movin¡Ї ¡®cross the dance floor
Better than the day she left me
Arm in arm with somebody new
Holdin¡Ї hands and laughin¡Ї like we used to
I got my best smile on, but it¡Їs no disguise
It don¡Їt hide the pain in these eyes

I did her so wrong, for so long
Turned my back on her love, now she¡Їs long gone
I did my part, to break her heart
She walked out on me, and tore my world apart
She used to be mine 
Oh, she used to be mine

It¡Їs taken every bit of strength that I have
To keep a hurt look off of my face
I can¡Їt keep from lookin¡Ї back over my shoulder
At the lucky man takin¡Ї my place
Oh, if it weren¡Їt for my pride, I¡Їd probably take off runnin¡Ї
Guess what I¡Їm feelin¡Ї, is what I got comin¡Ї

I did her so wrong, for so long
Turned my back on her love, now she¡Їs long gone
I did my part, to break her heart
She walked out on me, and tore my world apart
She used to be mine 
Oh, she used to be mine

I did her so wrong, for so long
Turned my back on her love, now she¡Їs long gone
I did my part, to break her heart
She walked out on me, and tore my world apart
She used to be mine 
Oh, she used to be mine

Oh, she used to be mine,
She used to be mine

(Bill LaBounty/Steve O'Brien)

She's got a T-Top Camaro with a scoop on the hood
And two big speakers blasting Johnny B. Goode
Looking so sweet it oughta be a crime
She plays with my heart and messes with my mind
Acts like Madonna but she listens to Merle
Rock my world little Country girl

She wears snakeskin boots made by Calvin Klein
And cheap sunglasses from the five and dime
All the other girls in school they give her dirty looks
She got an "A" in math and never cracked a book
Sure looks good in her denim and pearls
Rock my world little Country girl

Chorus:
Rock my world
Drag me out on the floor
Dance with me till I can't dance anymore
One-step, two-step, get in a line
I gotta find a way to make you mine

I tell her that I love her but it ain't enough
She says I got to learn to loosen up
Get a little wild on Saturday night
But make sure she's home before the mornin' light
Sunday she's all ribbons and curls
Rock my world little Country girl

(Repeat chorus)

(Kix Brooks/Ronnie Dunn/Don Cook)

Lipstick letters across the mirror this morning
Said, "Goodbye, baby." You left with no warning
Like a thief in the night, you ran away with my heart
I can't believe my eyes, must be a bad dream
You always said we had a good thing
You never once let on we were falling apart

That ain't no way to go. Girl, it just ain't right
Don't you think that I deserve to hear you say goodbye
That ain't no way to go. Was it all a lie
After all this time, that ain't no way to go

Getting nowhere, I'm tired of thinking
Guess I'll do a little wishful dreaming
And make a whiskey wish upon a star
Train whistle blowing down the tracks
Lonesome sound says she ain't coming back
It's such a cold blow from out of the dark

That ain't no way to go. Girl, it just ain't right
Don't you think that I deserve to hear you say goodbye
That ain't no way to go. Was it all a lie

(Kix Brooks/Ed Hunnicutt)

Well I'll bet by the time I get to Tulsa
She'll be pullin' on them tight blue jeans
She'll go down to Cowboy's, buy herself a cold one
And on a Friday night in Dallas, she's a cowboy's dream
Something tells me she'll sit out the first one
Then they'll play George Strait and she'll be gone
Cause heaven knows that girl was born to two-step
And Texas women don't stay lonely long

It's a fact that women like the one I left
Can find somebody else, any time they want
It's a shame, but I'm afraid the one I love
She don't like waiting much
Texas women don't stay lonely long

I'd sure like to think she'd wait forever
Welcome me back in with open arms
But she don't walk the floor, she don't count the teardrops
And she don't pick up pieces from no broken heart
I wish I could call and say I'm sorry
But there's nobody sitting by the phone
You know she meant it when she told me that she loved me
But Texas women don't stay lonely long

It's a fact that women like the one I left
Can find somebody else, any time they want
It's a shame, but I'm afraid the one I love
She don't like waiting much
Texas women don't stay lonely long

It's a fact that women like the one I left
Can find somebody else, any time they want
It's a shame, but I'm afraid the one I love
She don't like waiting much

(Ronnie Dunn/Kix Brooks)

Times are hard and the money's tight
Day to day we fight that fight
Nothing new, it's the same old grind
Uphill all the way 

Boss man says forget the raise
Preacher says to keep the faith
Good things come to those who wait
Tomorrow's another day 

Our time is coming
When or where the good Lord only knows
Our time is coming
When this road we're on will turn to a street of gold 

Long as we keep love alive
Something tells me we'll survive
It's the little things that'll get us by
And hold us together 

I feel it when you hold me close
Baby we got more than most
Steady through the highs and lows
We'll go on forever 

Our time is coming
When or where the good Lord only knows
Our time is coming
When this road we're on will turn to a street of gold

(Kix Brooks/Don Cook)

Seems like every time I call you
I'm standing in the pouring rain
I had another falling out with love
I'm back out on the streets again
I could us a cup of coffee
But I guess I better pass this time
But you could do an old friend a favor
While I'm still on the line 

I know you said it's over
But this old heart's still burning with desire
So tell me one more time
You don't love me anymore
You gotta help me girl
I can't put out this fire 

It's good to hear your voice again
I can almost see your smile
It's good to talk about old times
If only for a little while
Guess I'll go on back to my place
There's not much else for me to do
I wish that I could close my eyes
Without dreaming of you

I know you said it's over
But this old heart's still burning with desire
So tell me one more time
You don't love me anymore
You gotta help me girl
I can't put out this fire 

Oh you gotta help me girl
I can't put out this fire
No, no, you gotta help me girl

(Ronnie Dunn)

Out in the country
Past the city limits sign
Well there's a honky tonk
Near the county line
The joint starts jumpin' every night
When the sun goes down
They got whiskey, women music and smoke
It's where all the cowboy folk
Go to boot scootin' boogie

I've got a good job
I work hard for my money
When it's quittin' time
I hit the door runnin'
I fire up my pickup truck
And let the horses run
I go flyin' down the highway
To that hide-a-way
Stuck out in the woods
To do the boot scootin' boogie

Yeah, heel, toe, docie do
Come on baby, let's go boot scootin'
Oh Cadillac, Blackjack, baby meet me out back
We're gonna boogie
Oh, get down, turn around, go to town
Boot scootin' boogie

The bartender asks me
Says, "Son what'll it be?"
I want a shot at that redhead yonder
Lookin' at me
The dance floor's hoppin'
And it's hotter than the Fourth of July
I see outloaws, inlaws, crooks and straights
All out makin' it shake
Doin' the boot scootin' boogie

Yeah, heel, toe, docie do
Come on baby, let's go boot scootin'
Oh Cadillac, Blackjack, baby meet me out back
We're gonna boogie
Oh, get down, turn around, go to town
Boot scootin' boogie
