(Bill Luther/Tom Damphier)
I keep tellin' myself this is the right thing to do
I was wastin' her time, waitin' on dreams that just weren't comin' true
And this old highway seems to understand
Leadin' me on to somewhere that no one knows my name
I got the window rolled down, I got the radio up
I'm doin' all that I can to get my mind off us
What I need to do is turn this car around
Drive as fast as I can 'til I see the lights of our hometown
And run to her, take her in my arms
Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard
But I drive on, and on, and on
Eighty-seven more miles gets me into Baton Rogue
There's a buddy of mine who says he might find some work that I can do
Or maybe head up north to Knoxville, Tennessee
I know my baby sister, has got a couch where I can sleep
Now the sun's goin' down on my broken heart
Lord, I gotta get back before I get too far
What I need to do is turn this car around
Drive as fast as I can 'til I see the lights of our hometown
And run to her, take her in my arms
Make her see how sorry I am, well that shouldn't be so hard
But I drive on
Yes I drive on, and on, and on
Knowin' what I need to do
Girl, I'm comin' home to you
Knowin' what I need to do
Girl I'm comin' home to you
I'm comin' home to you
Knowin' what I need to do

Big orange ball, sinkin' in the water
Toes in the sand, couldn't get much hotter
Little umbrella shaped margaritas
Coconut oil, tannin' senioritas
Now I know how Jimmy Buffet feels
Hands on the wheel, cruisin' down the interstate
Gas pedal sticks, carries my car away
I was going fast as a Rambler goes
I could feel the speed from my head to my toes
Now I know how Richard Petty feels
I've been around the block a time or two
Done almost everything a boy can do
I've done some livin', yeah I've had fun
But there is one thing that I haven't done
Saved two months, bought a little diamond
Tonights the night, feels like perfect timin'
Down on one knee on momma's front steps
Man I'm gonna die if she really says yes
I wanna know how forever feels
I've been around the block a time or two
Done almost everything a boy can do
I've done some livin', yeah I've had fun
But there is one thing that I haven't done
I wanna know how forever feels
Hey, I wanna know how forever feels
Girl, I wanna know how forever feels

One word, that's all you said
Something in your voice called me, turned my head
Your smile, just captured me
You were in my future as far as I could see
And I dont know how it happens, but it happens still
You asked me if I love you, if I always will
Well you had me from hello
I felt love start to grow
The moment I looked into your eyes you won me
It was over from the start you completely stole my heart
And now you won't let go
I never even had a chance you know
You had me from hello
Inside I built a wall
So high around my heart, I thought I'd never fall
One touch, you brought it down
The bricks of my defenses scattered on the ground
And I swore to me I wasn't going to love again
The last time was the last time I'd let someone in
But you had me from hello
I felt love start to grow
The moment I looked into your eyes you won me
It was over from the start you completely stole my heart
And now you wont let go
I never even had a chance you know
You had me from hello
Thats all you said
Something in your voice calls me, turns my head
You had me from hello
You had me from hello
Girl, I've loved you from hello

She said you never tell me that you love me anymore
So I can't help but wonder if you do
She said if things don't change you'll see me walk right out that door
'Cause I've done everything I know to do
I said I don't know just what it is you want from me
She said I only want us back the way we used to be
Then she said
Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
Hold me, hold me like you want me
Like you'll never let me go
She said show me, show me
That you really love me
And then tell me 'cause I really need to know
She said kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
I got down on my knees right there and promised her I'd change
'Cause deep inside I knew that she was right
I said I know we've drifted and there's only me to blame
But I don't want to waste another night
Somewhere in the darkness there we found a brand new start
As I took every word she whispered straight to heart
She said
Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
Hold me, hold me like you want me
Like you'll never let me go
She said show me, show me
That you really love me
And then tell me 'cause I really need to know
She said kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
Kiss me

Darlin' if you think back
To the heartbroken past
Before we found each other
It's so amazin', it's almost crazy
What a difference lookin' through the eyes of love
Life is good, the grass is green
The good Lord smilin' on you and me
Gonna knock on wood
Sweet sunshine everywhere I look
You love me like no one could
Life is good
People stop me on the street
Thinkin' I'm the old me
Talkin' about the bad old days
But ever since you came along
Them old blues are long gone
I break into a grin and all that I can say is
Life is good, the grass is green
The good Lord smilin on you and me
Gonna knock on wood
Sweet sunshine everywhere I look
You love me like no one could
Life is good
Someday girl, this old world will try to beat you up
Let 'em bring it on, 'cause everytime we touch
Life is good, the grass is green
The good Lord smilin' on you and me
Gonna knock on wood
Sweet sunshine everywhere I look
You love me like no one could
Life is good
Life is good, the grass is green
The good Lord smilin' on you and me
Sweet sunshine everywhere I look
You love me like no one could
Life is good
Life is good

Well I just found this old picture in my wallet
Of you and me, down in Mexico
Just look at us there on that beach, on that blanket
That look on our face says all you need to know
Seems like everywhere we go baby love goes everywhere
Everytime our hearts meet love is all around us
Every road we take darlin' love takes
Every turn, livin' right inside us
I believe love goes
Everywhere we go
Sometimes I dream, we're alone on an island
Nowhere to go, we don't want to leave
All that we have is a world full of time
We spend it all on you and me
It's all that we need
Seems like everywhere we go baby love goes everywhere
Everytime our hearts meet, love is all around us
Every road we take, darlin' love takes
Every turn, livin' right inside us
I believe love goes
Everywhere we go
I'm so alive when I'm near you
This fire in my heart lights the world when I'm with you
Every road we take, darlin' love takes
Every turn, livin' right inside us
I believe love goes
Everywhere we go
I believe love goes
Everywhere we go
Everywhere we go

(Paul Overstreet/Jim Collins)
Plowin' these fields in the hot summer sun
Over by the gate lordy here she comes
With a basket full of chicken and a big cold jug of sweet tea
I make a little room and she climbs on up
Open up a throttle and stir a little dust
Just look at her face she ain't a foolin' me
She thinks my tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always starin' at me
While I'm chuggin' along
She likes the way it's pullin' while we're tillin' up the land
She's even kind of crazy 'bout my farmer's tan
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
She thinks my tractor's sexy
We ride back and forth 'til we run out of light
Take it to the barn put it up for the night
Climb up in the loft sit and talk with the radio on
She said she's got a dream and I asked what it is
She wants a little farm and a yard full of kids
One more teeny weeny ride before take her home
She thinks my tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always starin' at me
While I'm chuggin' along
She likes the way it's pullin' while we're tillin' up the land
She's even kind of crazy 'bout my farmer's tan
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
She thinks my tractor's sexy
Well she ain't into cars or pickup trucks
But if it runs like a Deere man her eyes light up
She thinks my tractor's
She thinks my tractor's sexy
It really turns her on
She's always starin' at me
While I'm chuggin' along
She likes the way it's pullin' while we're tillin' up the land
She's even kind of crazy 'bout my farmer's tan
She's the only one who really understands what gets me
She thinks my tractor's sexy
She thinks my tractor's sexy
She thinks my tractor's sexy

(Aimee Mayo/Bill Luther/Chris Lindsey)
She lived at the end of a little dirt road
In a house where secrets go untold
Barefoot in a cotton dress
Dark hair in a tangled mess
And a head full of crazy dreams
She said
I'm goin' to California
A place where the sun always shines
I'm goin' to California
And I'm leavin' everything behind
You can't help but feel a little bit touched
When your daddy loves you a little too much
You can wish on four leaf clovers
But all the fields have been plowed over
And there's nothin' left to do but fly away
She said
I'm goin' to California
A place where the sun always shines
I'm goin' to California
And I'm leavin' everything behind
Stars burn like candles on that two-lane highway
She made her wish, and disappeared on her 18th birthday
And she said
I'm goin' to California
A place where the sun always shines
I'm goin' to California
And I'm leavin' everything behind
I'm goin' to California
And I'm leavin' everything behind
Oh California
I'm goin' to California
Oh California
Leavin' it all behind
California

(Duet with Randy Travis)
(Mickey Cates)
The summer breeze, made ripples on the pond
Rattled through the rings and the willow trees beyond
Daddy in his good hat, mama in her Sunday dress
Watched with pride, as I stood there in the water up to my chest
And the preacher spoke about the cleansing blood
I sank my toes into that East Tennessee mud
And it was down with the old man, up with the new
Raised to walk in the way of light and truth
I didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore
But I felt like a new born baby, cradled up in the arms of the Lord
Amazing grace, oh how sweet the sound
There was glory in the air, there was dinner on the ground
And my sins went for many, were washed away and gone
Along with a buffalo nickel I forgot to leave at home
But that seemed like such a small, small price to pay
For the blessed peace of mind that came to me that day
And it was down with the old man, up with the new
Raised to walk in the way of light and truth
I didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore
But I felt like a new born baby, cradled up in the arms of the Lord
This road is long and dusty, sometimes the soul must be cleansed
And I long to feel that water, rushin' over me again
Down with the old man, up with the new
Raised to walk in the way of light and truth
I didn't see no angels, just a few saints on the shore
But I felt like a new born baby, cradled up in the arms of the Lord
I felt like a new born baby, cradled up in the arms of the Lord

(Kenny Chesney/Don Sampson/Paul Overstreet)
She can't put her finger on a single lipstick stain
Perfume doesn't linger in a shirt
There's no matchbook in his pocket with a number and a name
So why does she still hurt
'Cause a woman knows, when there's another woman
She can feel her, all over her man
A woman knows, when there's another woman
You can't fool her, don't try to think you can
What she don't know won't hurt her that's what he tells himself
So he hides his cheatin' heart inside his chest
He thinks he's put one over, but what he doesn't know is
He's already confessed
'Cause a woman knows, when there's another woman
She can feel her, all over her man
A woman knows, when there's another woman
You can't fool her, don't try to think you can
A woman knows, when there's another woman
You can't fool her, don't try to think you can
You can't fool her, don' try to think you can

(Skip Ewing/Kent Blazy)
Well I opened my heart, and I let you in
I promised I'd never love again
And still doin' what I'd said I'd do
Someday I might get over you
I wear my ring on a chain now, instead of my hand
And I deal with your memories the best I can
I've even been out on a date or two
Someday I might get over you
Oh I never thought I'd see it
But I think I see the light now
I know that what I have to do
Is get on with my life but I can't take another day
I can't face another night, so I just take another breath
And let it go
If I could ever feel the way I felt
I'll take a chance with someone else
And if my heart takes chances too
Someday I might get over you
Oh I never thought I'd see it
But I think I see the light now
I know that what I have to do
Is get on with my life, but I can't take another day
I can't face another night, so I just take another breath
And let it go
Well I opened my heart, and I let you in
I promised I'd never love again
Right now it's still somethin' I still can't do
Someday I might get over you
Though it may not be 'til my life is through
Someday I might get over you
. . .
