Still

Lee Brice - Kyle Jacobs - Joe Leathers

© Mike Curb Music, BMI

There's a place I like to go where I can hear the cotton grow
Midnight train whistles blow a dozen miles down the road
All I really have to do is just be still

There's the place I love to be momma daddy my sister and me
First time I ever saw the beach back to 1983
All I really have to do is just be still

When this world gets crazy and tries to break me
And I had all I can stand I can close my eyes
No matter where I am and just be still

There's a place that I can see where my baby's next to me
Close enough to feel the heat all wound up beneath the sheets
All I have to do is just be still

When this world gets crazy and tries to break me...

There's a place I need to go where the stain glass windows glow
Every part of me is known thank God I can go there
Thank God I can go there still

Still

Oh thank God I can go there still

Ghost Town Train (She's Gone)

Marv Green - Troy Olsen

© Hillbilly Poetry Music, BMI

If I could I would rewind the times she cried I just turned around and walked away
Wish there was a switch I could give then she'd love me like she loved my yesterday
What I'd give to hold her in my arms feel her heart and wipe her tears right off her face
That's just plain foolishness. Truth is life just doesn't ever work that way

She's gone oh no oh no my baby's gone oh no oh no

The morning sun stills the stars shines her eyes and mine are laughing once again
Her long hair flowing I'm there holding her and hoping that this feeling never ends
But it's just a dream inside my head gone with the wind just like a child's red balloon
Floating up into the sky so high and disappearing out into the wild blue

She's gone oh no oh no my baby's gone oh no oh no
She's a ghost town train a teardrop in the rain oh no
She's two tail lights disappearing in the night oh no
Oh no she's gone

She's a ghost town train a teardrop in the rain oh my baby's gone
She's two tail lights disappearing in the night oh now I'm all alone
She's a ghost town train a teardrop in the rain oh my baby's gone
She's two tail lights disappearing in the night
Oh (if my clock could rewind the time)

She's a ghost town train a teardrop in the rain
(I'd turn around and walk away)
She's two tail lights disappearing in the night

Good Girls

Chris Lindsey - Aimee Mayo - Brad Warren - Brett Warren

© Style Sonic Music, BMI

Jesse called her best friend Jenny said we're going out tonight
Gonna chase the moon right out of the sky
We're gonna drink Boone's Farm like we were seventeen again
You can't say no as long as we've been friends

Good girls always walk the line
Good girls never let you see them cry

Took off like a bottle rocket through a field of corn
And hell hath no fury like a woman scorned
Then Jesse lit a cigarette and said my man's been sleeping around
And I know who it is and Jenny's head fell down

Good girls always walk the line
Good girls never let you see them cry

Next morning the paper read two killed in a fatal crash
The train never had time to stop they were parked right on the tracks
The only witness was a weeping willow on a faraway hill
When Jesse told Jenny hey If I can't have him neither one of us will

Good girls always walk the line
Good girls never let you see them cry
Cry cry cry cry

Jesse called her best friend Jenny said We're going out tonight
Gonna chase the moon right out of the sky

I Didn't Know It At The Time

Chris Stapleton - Lee Miller

© Blackwood Music, BMI

I thought that my first love would be my wife
But in junior high she moved away from here
I thought Johnny would always be my best friend
I haven't talked to him in fifteen years
Back when I had those fights with my old man
I never thought he'd be an old man

And I didn't know all those years ago
How the years would go flying by
Thought I knew it all but I was wrong
And I didn't know it at the time

I never thought good jobs were hard to find
Till I let my pride cost me one
I never thought my whole life would change
Till I heard the doctor say I had a son
I never really thought that I was lost
Till I heard my dying mother sing Old Rugged Cross

And I didn't know all those years ago...

Oh I thought I knew it all oh but I was wrong
And I didn't know I didn't know it at the time
I didn't know didn't know didn't know
I didn't know oh I didn't know

It's A Business Doing Pleasure With You

Brett James - Chad Kroeger

© Stage Three Songs, ASCAP

I spent fifteen hundred dollars on your damn dog's collar put new spinners on your Escalade
I swear I almost started crying when you brought up buying diamonds
Lord I'm spending more than I'm getting paid you got more purses than Versace
Got more rings than Liberace fill your closets full of fancy shoes
All my credit cards are cooking girl you don't know what your putting me through
It's a business doing pleasure a business doing pleasure with you

You got me walking past the fellas molding drinks with pink umbrellas
On some island that I can't even spell
Then we slide over to Gucci right before we go for sushi
That's a version of my personal hell
You just spent all day long trying on Louis Vuitton
There's a thousand things that I'd rather do
Lord my mom would beat me senseless if she saw what I was spending on you
It's a business doing pleasure a business doing pleasure with you

Your gonna break my bank before too long
I'm taking out a loan
But when you turn your kind of loving on
Honey I just can't say no
No no no no no no

Your gonna break my bank before too long
I'm running out of dough
But when you turn you kind of magic on
Honey I just can't say no no no no

Maybe I'll play the stock market put some money in my pocket
Ain't no telling what your gonna need next
I need to steal a Sherman tank just to break into a bank
I pray to God this song will be a success

All my buddies think it's funny cause I'm spending all my money
On some honey like there's something to prove
Cause for a little of your loving there ain't nothing much that I wouldn't do
It's a business doing pleasure a business doing pleasure with you
No no no no it's a business doing pleasure a business doing pleasure with you

If I Died Today

Blair Daly - Brad Warren - Brett Warren

© Style Sonic Music, BMI

If I died today who'd turn off my coffee pot
Would there be a street parade
Would I just be an after thought

If I died today would I still be a waiter
Could I fly around like superman
Would I make the Sunday paper

I wonder who I'd see crying standing over me
Who would just send their regards
Would anybody say that at least he's in a better place
And who would get this old guitar

If I died today would my mama keep on praying
Would my buddies go out drinking
Would my alarm clock keep on blinking

If I died today would I need to be ashamed
Would I be easy to forget could I live with my regrets

I wonder who I'd see crying standing over me
Who would just send their regards
Would anybody say that the world will never be the same
And who would get this old guitar

If I died today would I see my room from Heaven
Would my family talk about me at Christmas and Thanksgiving

I wonder who I'd see crying standing over me
Who would just send their regards
Would anybody say What a good guy what a shame
And who would get this old guitar

If I died today who'd turn off my coffee pot

Mr. Whoever You Are

Sean McConnell

© WBM Music, SESAC

There's a girl on the back roads of Tennessee
And she works in the factory all day on the line
Then she clocks out at 5:00
Finally there's a bar The boys treat her like a queen
She's the belle of the ball in blue jeans
And they all get a turn just to turn her around the floor
And they always want more

She says take me for one more song Mr Whoever You Are
Spin me around and pull me in close
Then the band slows down let's get the hell out of this bar
Mr Whoever You Are Mr Whoever You Are

They danced and melt to the heat of the song
Their bodies feel like they belong
And the boys hold on tight thinking
I might get lucky tonight and they're probably right
Yea they're probably right

She says Take me for one more song Mr Whoever You Are...

They hold on to her waist she falls into the night
And she throws back her head she looks up toward the sky
And she laughs at all the pretty lights

And says Take me for one more song Mr Whoever You Are...
Oh Mr Whoever You Are Mr Whoever You Are

Bob DiPiero - Tom Douglas

© ATV Music, BMI

Hank Williams sang it number 3 drove it
Chuck Berry twanged it will Faulkner wrote it
Aretha Franklin souled it Dolly Parton graced it
Rosa Parks rode it Scarlet O chased it

Smooth as the Hickory wind that blows from Memphis
Down to Apalachicola it's hi ya'll did ya eat
Well come on in I'm sure glad to know ya
Don't let this old gold cross
An' this Allman Brothers T-shirt throw ya
It's cicadas making noise with the southern voice

Hank Aaron smacked it Michael Jordan dunked it
Pocahontas tracked it Jack Daniels drunk it
Tom Petty rocked it Dr King paved it
Bear Bryant won it Billy Graham saved it

Smooth as the Hickory wind that blows from Memphis...

Jesus is my friend America is my home
Sweet iced tea and Jerry Lee Daytona Beach
That's what gets to me I can feel it in my bones

Smooth as the hickory wind that blows from Memphis
Down to Apalachicola it's hi ya'll did ya eat
Well come on in child I'm sure glad to know ya
Don't let this old gold cross
An' this Charlie Daniels T-shirt throw ya
We're just boys making noise with the southern voice

Yeah yeah yeah yeah southern voice
I got a southern voice a southern voice

You Had To Be There

Casey Beathard - Kenneth Wright

© Kenneth Wright Music, BMI

He sat down picked up the phone and said boy I'm your old man
He touched the glass between the two as if to shake his hand
The boy he didn't budge not even so much as a blink
The man said oh come on! Better late than never don't you think

He said I read it in the paper can't believe you're 21
I can't believe some son of mine could do the things I hear you've done
He went on like some big hero who flew in to save the day
And the boy said If you're here to steer me right man it's too late

You had to be there and I'm talking from day one
That's the only time a man should talk through glass to his new son
And you'd have to go back and teach me how when I was nine
Cause my mama couldn't throw a ball even if she had the time

I should have been learning how to fish instead of learning how to smoke
I bet if you'd have whooped my tail I'd never thought it was a joke
He said sometimes the will for doing wrong is way too strong
For any mama's prayers you had to be there

The man said boy I'm sorry that you hate me like you do
The boy said dry it up man We ain't making this about you
It's about a teenage girl against the world who was left there high and dry
About a kid who might have stood a whole lot better shot at life

But you had to be there and I'm talking from day one
That's the only time a man should talk through glass to his new son
You'd have to go back and teach me how when I was nine
Cause my mama couldn't throw a ball even if she had the time

I should have been learning how to fish instead of learning how to smoke
I bet if you'd have whooped my tail I'd never thought it was a joke
Sometimes the will for doing wrong is way too strong
For any mama's prayer you had to be there

Before the boy hung up the phone he said They say me I'm out of time
And it hit the man right there and then my God son so am I

I'm Only Jesus

Pat Buchanan - Brad Warren - Brett Warren

© Style Sonic Music, BMI

Bobby's got a duster '79 bottle of Jack and a 45
Points it at his head and he starts to cry
Too proud to ask me to save his life

Billy's in a limo on the upper east side
Playing Russian Roulette with the long white line
His wife gets a call at 3 a.m
Saying Billy ain't never coming home again
She asks me why

And I said I sure wish you'd believe that everybody's free
And I'll help you if you ask me to I gave every star a name
The sunshine and the rain but I can't decide the road you choose
That's up to you I'm only Jesus

Johnny had a good job raking it in
Caviar parties with his well to do friends
Something was missing from his perfect little life
He threw in the towel and he called me one night

Betty was an orphan like so many kids
They taught her in school that I didn't exist
She had every reason not to talk to me
But every night before bed she got down on her knees
Just to tell me hi

And I said I'm sure glad you believe cause everybody's free...

Hey You're all the same to me everybody's free...

I'm only Jesus I'm only Jesus

Gotta have Jesus to see the light gotta have Jesus to hold you tight
Gotta have Jesus to talk to me I gotta have Jesus to set me free

Forever Seventeen

Joe Doyle - Josh Kear

© Opie's Tales Music, BMI

Let's be honest you're not flawless
But you're as close as anything I've seen
You're not the woman you envisioned
But your life is not a broken time machine
No it's not that bad no. It's really not that bad

A little midnight chardonnay smooth the edges off the day
A little taste of Mary Jane makes you feel young again
All those years around your eyes always take you by surprise
You've been living in a dream forever seventeen

A reckless lover a father figure
You search for both in every man you meet
You're not a mother and sometimes you wonder
If a son or daughter just might make you feel complete
But no you don't need someone else
No it's hard enough to learn to love yourself

A little midnight chardonnay smooth the edges off the day...
A little midnight chardonnay smooth the edges off the day...

Love You Goodbye

Jamie O'Hara - Tom Douglas

© Magic Knee Music, BMI

He was thinking back when he was a kid his folks were divorced
His old man high on something came knocking at the door
His mama wouldn't talk to him she said boy don't you let him in

She was cussing and pacing and wasting her life on that linoleum floor
He took him back to his old apartment turned off the TV
His beautiful broken hero on the couch
Passed out asleep and he put 'em to bed
With tears in his eyes he said dad I love you goodbye

He headed out into the night seventeen years old
Fired up that rusty old pickup turned his collar to the cold
And he headed back to mama's place ready for his big escape
And he tiptoed up the stairs and left a note in the cover's fold

It said mom I wish I could wave a wand and make you smile again
Bring back the man who stole your heart fore the demons got to him
If I stay here any longer something sacred's gonna die
He said Mom I love you goodbye

Took a lot of wrong turns on the road finding his life
By the grace of God he ended up with a little boy and a wife
And the phone call came from his sister it was that old familiar pain
His mother was at the doorstep of heaven's pure white light

At the end of the service his father came up to him
Clear eyed and sober now he said boy Jesus took my sins
And I pray someday maybe you'll forgive me too
With tears in his eyes he said son I love you goodbye

His plane touched down in Texas he pulled out his phone
Dialed in the number got the machine of his old man's home
He said ad we got an extra room and your grandson has your eyes
Couldn't say anything else cause he started to cry
And he choked out dad I love you goodbye
Dad I love you goodbye
