"Somewhere On A Beach."



Bet you think I'm sitting at home, no.
Bet you think that I'm all alone, no.
Bet you think I'm missing you and wishing you would call my phone,
Hell, no!

I went wheels up on a runway
And that ticket was a long way

I'm somewhere on a beach
Sipping something strong,
Got a new girl, she got it going on
We drink all day, and party all night
I'm way too gone to have you on my mind
She got a body and she's naughty,
And she got me like you ain't never got me.
I'm getting sun, getting some, and I ain't slept in a week
Yeah, I'm somewhere on a beach.

Heard you called my boys,
Heard you called my folks
They said you drove by my house real slow
You can check any spot, roll down every road
But girl, I ain't even close

I'm somewhere on a beach
Sipping something strong,
Got a new girl, she got it going on
We drink all day, and party all night
I'm way too gone to have you on my mind
She got a body and she's naughty,
And she got me like you ain't never got me
I'm getting sun, getting some, and I ain't slept in a week
Yeah, I'm somewhere on a beach.

I wish it could've worked out
But I'm gettin' over you now,
On a beach towel
With my shades on
My drink's up
And the sun's out
Huh! I'm somewhere on a beach!

I'm somewhere on a beach
Sipping something strong,
Got a new girl, she got it going on
We drink all day, and party all night
I'm way too gone to have you on my mind
She got a body and she's naughty,
And she got me like you ain't never got me
I'm getting sun, getting some, and I ain't slept in a week
Yeah, I'm somewhere on a beach.

Yeah, I'm somewhere on a beach.

"My Nemesis."



I'm leaving behind this world
And all the things I am
I'm tearing away from it
Because I know I can
I'm pushing away from you
And all the things you are
Don't need the memory
Already wear the scars
There is no yesterday
Tomorrow's far away
I gave you everything
And in return
You gave me nothing
Show me a sign
Please give me anything
I will not hide from what's inside of me
My nemesis
I'm turning away from me
And all the things I've known
I don't need your help no more
I can do this on my own
I'm taking all the blame
Resent what I've become
I regret everything and
There's nowhere left to run
There is no yesterday
Tomorrow's far away
I gave you everything
And in return
You gave me nothing
Show me a sign
Please give me anything
I will not hide from what's inside of me
My nemesis
I gave you everything
And in return
You gave me nothing
Show me a sign
Please give me anything
I will not hide from what's inside of me
My nemesis

"Jack Daniels."



I got a reputation going round,
Ain't never been the kind to back down
I?ve thrown a punch or two and gave a few black eyes,
But Jack Daniels kicked my ass again last night

I hung in pretty good for a round or two,
But he don?t fight fair like daddy taught me to,
Her memory turned my head and then he snuck up from behind,
Yeah Jack Daniels kicked my ass again last night

Always thought this heart was made of steel and bulletproof,
But the memory of her taillights fading breaks it right in two,
Guess every superman has got his kryptonite,
Jack Daniels kicked my ass again last night

Well I didn?t bleed and I ain't black and blue,
But it ain't hard to tell who got the better of who,
Cause in the morning light I?m hard to recognize,
Yeah Jack Daniels kicked my ass again last night

Always thought this heart was made of steel and bulletproof,
But the memory of her taillights fading breaks it right in two,
Guess every superman has got his kryptonite,
Jack Daniels kicked my ass again last night

That black label?s like black powder for my soul,
My head feels like a bomb about to blow,
Hell I?m half inclined to give that fuse a light,
And let Jack Daniels kick my ass again tonight.

"Came Here To Forget."




Girl your getting over him and I'm getting over her
The eyes have it made, ain't gotta say a word
Misery loves company, that's why it's you and me
Buying each other drinks
Back at the bar, as thick as thieves
Stealing these little sips
Doing our best to make the best of the worst of it

Keep playing them songs, keep singing along
Keep leaning it on in closer
Keep salting the rim, getting even with her and with him before the night is over
That first kiss was like a Colorado hit
We better keep on keeping it lit
'Til we can't remember, can't remember
Why we came here to forget...


Go ahead and check your phone, like I've been checking mine
Nobody's ex is texting for a rewind
Looks like it's just me and you
Falling in love just enough to get us through
What we're get'in through

Keep playing them songs, keep singing along
Keep leaning it on in closer
Keep salting the rim, getting even with her and with him before the night is over
That first kiss was like a Colorado hit
We better keep on keeping it lit
'Til we can't remember, can't remember
Why we came here to forget (yeah)
Just why we came here to forget

Looks like it's just me and you
Falling in love just enough to get us through
What we're getting through

Keep playing them songs, keep singing along
Keep leaning it on in closer
Keep salting the rim, getting even with her and with him before the night is over
That first kiss was like a Colorado hit
We better keep on keeping it lit
'Til we can't remember, can't remember
Why we came here to forget

Why we came here to forget
Why we came here to forget
Hey, hey
That's why we came here to forget....

"You And Tequila."



Baby, here I am again
Kicking dust in the Canyon wind
Waiting for that sun to go down
Made it up Mulholland Drive
Hell bent on getting high
High above the lights of town

'Cause you and Tequila make me crazy
Run like poison in my blood
One more night could kill me, baby
One is one too many, one more is never enough

Thirty days and thirty nights
Been putting up a real good fight
And there were times I thought you'd win
It's so easy to forget
The bitter taste the morning left
Swore I wouldn't go back there again

'Cause you and Tequila make me crazy
Run like poison in my blood
One more night could kill me, baby
One is one too many, one more is never enough

When it comes to you
Oh, the damage I could do
It's always your favorite sins
That do you in

'Cause you and Tequila make me crazy
Run like poison in my blood
One more night could kill me, baby
One is one too many, one more is never enough

Never enough
You and Tequila
You and Tequila

"Friends In Low Places."



Blame it all on my roots
I showed up in boots
And ruined your black tie affair
The last one to know
The last one to show
I was the last one
You thought you'd see there
And I saw the surprise
And the fear in his eyes
When I took his glass of champagne
And I toasted you
Said, honey, we may be through
But you'll never hear me complain

'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends in low places

Well, I guess I was wrong
I just don't belong
But then, I've been there before
Everything's all right
I'll just say goodnight
And I'll show myself to the door
Hey, I didn't mean
To cause a big scene
Just give me an hour and then
Well, I'll be as high
As that ivory tower
That you're livin' in

'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends in low places


I guess I was wrong
I just don't belong
But then, I've been there before
And everything is alright
I'll just say goodnight
And I'll show myself to the door
I didn't mean to cause a big scene
Just wait 'til I finish this glass
Then sweet little lady
I'll head back to the bar
And you can kiss my ass

"Withdrawals."



You were that whiskey running through my veins
You were that first sweet taste of Mary Jane
All alone in the darkness watching my hands shake
But they don?t have a rehab for heartbreak

It?s your blue sundress with the strap falling off of your shoulder
It?s that all night moonlight drive, you saying baby pull over, pull over
It?s that long kiss barely coming up for air
Had to have you anytime and everywhere
So hooked on you probably never get clean and sober

Whoa, I bang my head against the moon
I bang my fist against the wall
You always used to get me high
Now all I do is crash and fall
I?m going through withdrawals
I?m going through withdrawals
I?m going through withdrawals
Yeah you got me going through ?em

It?s the rain on the window with your body wrapped tight around me
It's that lightning flash in your eyes make me want you so badly, madly
You?re the ghost that?s still sleeping in my bed
A song I can?t turn off in my head
You?re the perfect storm, yeah baby, and I?m still drowning

Whoa, I bang my head against the moon
I bang my fist against the wall
You always used to get me high
Now all I do is crash and fall
I?m going through withdrawals
I?m going through withdrawals
I?m going through withdrawals
Yeah you got me going through ?em

I?m going through withdrawals
I?m going through withdrawals, yeah

I bang my head against the moon
I bang my fist against the wall
You always used to get me high
Now all I do is crash and fall
I?m going through withdrawals
I?m going through withdrawals
I?m going through withdrawals
I?m going through withdrawals
I?m going through withdrawals
I?m going through withdrawals
Yeah you got me going through ?em

Fire Away.





Honey load up your questions
And pick up your sticks and your stones
And pretend I?m a shelter for heartaches that don?t have a home
Choose the words that cut like a razor
And all that I?ll say is


Fire away
Take your best shot
Show me what you got
Honey, I?m not afraid
Rear back and take aim
And fire away

Well, I wish I could say
That I?ve never been here before
But you know and I know
That I?ll always come back for more
Your love might be my damnation
But I?ll cry to my grave

If Drinking Don't Kill Me (Her Memory Will).



The bars are all closed it's four in the morning
Must have shut 'em all down by the shape that I'm in
I lay my head on the wheel and the horn begins honking
The whole neighborhood knows that I'm home drunk again.

And if drinking don't kill me her memory will
I can't hold out much longer the way that I feel
With the blood from my body I could start my own still
And if drinking don't kill me her memory will.

These old bones they move slow but so sure of their footsteps
As I trip on the floor and lightly touch down
Lord it's been ten bottles since I tried to forget her
But the memory still lingers lying here on the ground.

And if drinking don't kill me her memory will
I can't hold out much longer the way that I feel
With the blood from my body I could start my own still
But if drinking don't kill me her memory will...

Like My Dog.






He never tells me that he's sick of this house
He never says why don't you get off that couch?
He don't cost me nothin' when he wants to go out
I want you to love me like my dog
He never says I need a new attitude
Him and my sister ain't always in a feud
When I leave the seat up he don't think that it's rude
I want you to love me like my dog does, baby!
When I come home, I want you to just go crazy
He never looks at me like he might hate me
I want you to love me like my dog
He never acts like he don't care for my friends
He never asks me where in the hell have you been?
He don't play dead when I wanna pet him
I want you to love me like my dog does, honey!
He never says 'I wish you made more money'
He always thinks that pullin' my finger's funny
I want you to love me like my dog
He don't get mad at me and throw a major fit
When I say his sister is a bitch
I want you to love me like my dog does baby
When I come home, I want you to just go crazy
He never looks at me like he might hate me
I want you to love me like my dog!
I want you to love me like my dog does, baby!

It's Been Awhile.

And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I first saw you
And it's been awhile
Since I could stand on my own two feet again
And it's been awhile
Since I could call you

And everything I can't remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've stretched myself beyond my means

And it's been awhile
Since I can say that I wasn't addicted
And it's been awhile
Since I can say I love myself as well
And it's been awhile
Since I've gone and fucked things up just like I always do
And it's been awhile
But all that sh*t seems to disappear when I'm with you

And everything I can't remember
As f**ked up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've gone and f**ked things up again

Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day!

And it's been awhile
Since I could look at myself straight
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry
And it's been awhile
Since I've seen the way the candles light your face
And it's been awhile
But I can still remember just the way you taste

And everything I can't remember
As f**ked up as it all may seem to be I know it's me
I cannot blame this on my father
He did the best he could for me

And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry

It's My Life.



This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for the faith-departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud

It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
It's my life

This is for the ones who stood their ground
For Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky
Got to make your own breaks

It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life

Better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down

It's my life
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life

Are You Gonna Kiss Me Or Not?





We were sittin' up there on your momma's roof
Talkin' 'bout everything under the moon
With the smell of honeysuckle and your perfume
All I could think about was my next move

Oh, but you were so shy, so was I
Maybe that's why it was so hard to believe
When you smiled and said to me
Are you gonna kiss me or not?

Are we gonna do this or what?
I think you know I like you a lot
But you're 'bout to miss your shot
Are you gonna kiss me or not?

It was the best dang kiss that I ever had
Except for that long one after that
And I knew if I wanted this thing to last
Sooner or later I'd have to ask for your hand

So I took a chance
Bought a wedding band and I got down on one knee
And you smiled and said to me
Are you gonna kiss me or not?

Are we gonna do this or what?
I think you know I love you a lot
I think we've got a real good shot
Are you gonna kiss me or not?

So, we planned it all out for the middle of June
From the wedding cake to the honeymoon
And your momma cried
When you walked down the aisle

When the preacher man said, "Say I do"
I did and you did too, then I lifted that veil
And saw your pretty smile and I said
Are you gonna kiss me or not?

Are we gonna do this or what?
Look at all the love that we got
It ain't never gonna stop
Are you gonna kiss me or not?

Yeah baby, I love you a lot
I really think we've got a shot
Are you gonna kiss me or not?

Much Too Young (To Feel This Damn Old)





This ol' highway's getting longer
Seems there ain't no end in sight
To sleep would be best, but I just can't afford to rest
I've got to ride in Denver tomorrow night

I called the house but no one answered
For the last two weeks no one's been home
I guess she's through with me, to tell the truth I just can't see
What's kept the woman holding on this long

And the white line's getting longer and the saddle's getting cold
I'm much too young to feel this damn old
All my cards are on the table with no ace left in the hole
I'm much too young to feel this damn old

The competition's getting younger
Tougher broncs, you know I can't recall
The worn out tape of Chris LeDoux, lonely women and bad booze
Seem to be the only friends I've left at all

And the white line's getting longer and the saddle's getting cold
I'm much too young to feel this damn old
All my cards are on the table with no ace left in the hole
I'm much too young to feel this damn old

Lord, I'm much too young to feel this damn old

You Ain't Here To Kiss Me.




Home for seven days and I haven't even seen your face
I guess I've got a flight to change
There ain't nothin' left to say

If you really don't have it figured out by now
There's no need for me to hang around
I gotta get outta town

Five dollar drink and a lonely window seat
Half empty plane on New Years Eve
Love birds in the row in front of me are driving me crazy
The pilot comes on, says the year is almost gone
Five, four, three, two, one
Looks like it's just me and the whiskey
'Cause you ain't here to kiss me
You ain't here to kiss me

Raise a toast to the thought of you and me
This was just the way it had to be
Ninety-proof to give me clarity
The flight attendant must know that somethings going on
Can't hide the look of love gone wrong
So she's pouring them a little strong

Five dollar drink and a lonely window seat
Half empty plane on New Years Eve
Love birds in the row in front of me are driving me crazy
The pilot comes on, says the year is almost gone
Five, four, three, two, one
Looks like it's just me and the whiskey
'Cause you ain't here to kiss me
You ain't here to kiss me

At least we had a chance to know how it feels to love
But it turns out love ain't always enough
So I'll start getting over you

With another five dollar drink and a lonely window seat
Half empty plane on New Years Eve
Love birds in the row in front of me, just like we used to be
The pilot comes on, says the year is almost gone
Five, four, three, two, one
Looks like it's just me and the whiskey
'Cause you ain't here to kiss me yeah
You ain't here to kiss me, no
You ain't here to kiss me

Pretty Good At Drinking Beer.




I wasn't born for diggin deep holes
I'm not made for pavin long roads
I aint cut out to climb high line poles
But I'm pretty good at drinkin beer

But I do my best work when the weather's hot
I'm pretty good at drinkin' beer

So hand me one more

I'm built for having a ball

"Take My Drunk Ass Home"






It's time to take my drunk ass home
I drank all the whiskey and my moneys all gone
Hit on all the girls, sang every song
It's time to take my drunk ass home

Well I worked all week
So I could come here
Have a good time and an ice cold beer
But 1 turned to 10 and 10 turned to 20
And 20 plus an empty bottle's too damn many

It's time to take my drunk ass home
I drank all the whiskey and my moneys all gone
Hit on all the girls, sang every song
It's time to take my drunk ass home

Well it seems that I, misplaced my shirt
I cant find my keys for all this parkin' lot dirt
My fall back plan, has done got sad
'Cause my ex-girlfriend ain't lookin' half bad

It's time to take my drunk ass home
I drank all the whiskey and my moneys all gone
Hit on all the girls, sang every song
It's time to take my drunk ass home

"Help me up, aw put me back down put me back down"

I sucker punched my best friend
And the bouncer head locked me on stage with the band
I, I look like hell, I feel like ****
I think its time I call it quits

It's time to take my drunk ass home
I drank all the whiskey and my moneys all gone
Hit on all the girls, sang every song
It's time to take my drunk ass home

Yea its time to take my drunk ass home
I twisted up my ankle, cant find my cell phone
Yea my lips all busted and my buzz is gone
Its time to take my drunk ass home

If y'all agree, then sing along
Its time to take, my drunk ass home

"Oh somebody call me a cab, please"

Blame the whiskey on the beer

Blame the mornin' on the night
For whose lyin' here with me
Blame the bar for the band

Blame the song for the party that went all night long

But it ain't my fault
No it ain't my fault

Lotta wrong I'd done
But it ain't my fault

Blame the heart for the hurtin'
Blame the hurtin' on the heart
Blame the dark on the devil

Lotta wrong I'd done
But it ain't my fault

I got my hands up
I need an alibi
Find me a witness who can testify
You made a mistake
You got the wrong guy
I'm only guilty of a damn good time
No it ain't my fault

Blame my reason on my name
Blame my name on my reason
Blame my lack of knowing better on public education
Blame smoke on the fire
Blame fire on the smoke
Blame the fight on the bouncer that couldn't take a joke
But it ain't my fault

I got my hands up
I need an alibi
Find me a witness who can testify
You made a mistake
You got the wrong guy
I'm only guilty of a damn good time
