Ain't Nothing 'Bout You
Once I thought that love was something I could never do
Never knew that I could feel this much
But this yearning in the deep part of my heart for you
Is more than a reaction to your touch
It's a perfect passion and I can't get enough
The way you look, the way you laugh,
Hillbilly DeluxeYeah, up in the backwoods down in the holler
Old boy's feeling like a dog on a collar
Keeping that chain pulled tight, waiting on Saturday night
Put on the smell good, put on Skynyrd
Little Miss Honky TonkI get out on the redneck side every now and then
Call up my baby, she comes over and the party begins
She's a slick nickel, she's right on the money
I wouldn't give her up for a thousand buckle bunnies
I'm her Big Cat Daddy, she's my Little Miss Honky Tonk
She's got my number, knows my favorite songs on the jukebox
Goes to gettin' down like crazy and the whole place rocks
My MariaMy Maria, don't you know I've come a long, long way?
I been longing to see her;
when she's around she takes my blues away.
Sweet Maria, the sunlight surely hurts my eyes.
I'm a lonely dreamer on a highway in the sky.
-Chorus-
Maria
Only In AmericaSun coming up over New York City
School bus driver in a traffic jam
Starin' at the faces in her rearview mirror
Looking at the promise of the Promised Land
One kid dreams of fame and fortune
One kid helps pay the rent
One could end up going to prison
One just might be president
She Used To Be MineShe looked so good movin’ ‘cross the dance floor
Better than the day she left me
Arm in arm with somebody new
Holdin’ hands and laughin’ like we used to
I got my best smile on, but it’s no disguise
It don’t hide the pain in these eyes
I did her so wrong, for so long
TequilaOne shot, Two shot, Three tequila floor,
Cowboy bouncer’s 'bout to bowl me out the door
Jose got me stumblin’ mumblin’ like a fool
That worms got a kick like a Tennessee mule
Wake up in the mornin hurtin head skinned knees
Aint no doubt about whats puttin a whoopin on me
Chorus
You Can't Take The Honky Tonk Out Of The GirlConnie came back for her second cousin's wedding
First time she'd been home in a year or two
Just in time for the rehearsal dinner
that crazy Connie wasn't wearing any shoes
[Chorus]
She lives in L.A. she flies to New York City
That woman's been around the world
