"Dust"

She's sick of this town, she's sick of that boy
Yeah she's sick of dreams that never take flight
There's gotta be more than the same old story
So she's gonna turn the page tonight
And turn the radio up (turn the radio up)
Roll the windows down

Hell yeah, Amen
Hallelujah, how ya been
8 point, 8 ball
First base, last call
Chrome grill, mudflap
Party back in the pines
Fight song, tom tom
Friday night, pom pom

We use to pull off highway 249
Had a cool little place where we'd go hide on a Friday night
And get away from the city lights
We'd find a little wood and build a fire
Sonebody'd always bring a couple guitars
And we'd take turns singin' songs and watching it burn
We'd do "Ramblin' Man", "Proud Mary". and "American Band"
We'd be singin' at the top of our lungs

I’ve been living in this town, for quite sometime
It’s been eighteen years since I crossed that county line
I sold almost everything that was mine
Now I’m leaving town, with nothing but that bottom line

A hundred dollars and a half of a tank of gas
The shirt that’s on my back, and an beat up Rangers cap
200 miles to go, who would believe that,

"Drive Away"

I saw the sun set low on that skyline
Day was gone I was out of time
As I let her walk out and say goodbye
And I sat there on that street askin' why
I let her drive away....
I let her drive away....

I got a little drunk last night
There's something 'bout a midnight rain
Staring at the ceiling fan
I couldn't get you off my brain

I guess I wasn't thinking straight
I couldn't tell wrong from right

Another empty promise
A good intention from the start
You failed to mention
Our love could be this hard

I'm tired of talking
Don't have nothing left to say
Well maybe sometime

Way back on the radio dial,
Давным-давно, во время настройки радиоприёмника,
The fire got lit inside a bright-eyed child.
Огонь вспыхнул в душе ясноглазого ребёнка,
Every note just wrapped around his soul,
И каждая нота, будь то гавайской гитары или "Мемфиса" (1),
From steel guitars to Memphis,
Буквально обволакивала его душу

I wish I was famous
Yeah, I wish I was famous
'Cause if I was famous
You'd know my name

I've seen you downtown
I've walked up to you
But the words wouldn't come out

Waging war against my sins
It's been a while since I talked to him
I keep a bible by my bed
But it's been a while since it's been read

I don't know why I've let things come this far

It's hard to ask him to forgive

She's got a bumper like a billboard
Covered in stickers of her favorite band
She's got a handful of records that she turns to
When she needs to land
She's a saturday night parade through the streets
That all eyes come to see including me

She carries memories around like souvenirs down in her

I Call the Tune

I see you strutting in here girl with one thing on your mind
Your gonna try to get the best of any man you find
Girl keep on walking, walking on past me
I've been around the block a time, I call them like I see

I'm not accusing you of being insincere

Im in love
as in im crazy
yea baby shake me
through and through

im in love
as in im fallin
hear heaven callin

If I ever got that 56 that Ive always wanted
Id drive down to LA
cruise along some beach front road
playing surfin USA

If I ever won the lottery
Id buy a house in the hills
Id give some of it to charity

Going through the change, when it rains it pours these days
Nothing stays the same, you gotta find new ways
To swim upstream, while you chase your dreams
And in between you keep your sanity

Chorus:
Waiting on life to Level
Waiting on something stable

Girl, I swear I never use words like, "Forever"
Can't believe that ever came out of my mouth, oh
Felt like I was dreamin', but when you started leavin'
My heart started thinkin' out loud and now I
Keep replayin' in my mind what went down last night
Did I overstep the line we've been walkin'?
Swear I wasn't even drunk, so if I said too much
Oh, that was just the love talkin'

I needed a softhearted, hardheaded, outspoken
Wide open, high hoping, holding it down
Straight shooting, sweet talking, hell raising
Line walking angel with feet on the ground
Strong, but she's kind, laughs when she's lying
Knows how to throw back a few
Only one in the world, way too good to be true
Lucky for me, it's you

(I) Fell in love with an Oklahoma girl.
She stole my heart, took over my world.
She lit my cigarette and never had to ask.
One look and i was gone like that.

Thats okay, I don't mind.
A Texas boy just might find something in an Oklahoma girl.

Heartache hurts and you can't move on
Blue skies fade to a gray sky dawn
Trying to find a place in this town
Where you don't feel six feet underground
You're so tired, you're so scared
Defeated by the troubles you can't repair

[Chorus]

Judgement day is finally here
Time to testify my dear
Cheating ain't your only crime
You killed love, stole my time
Thank God I learned what you are
Before we went too far
Hallelujah and amen
For the lies I caught you in

The sun still hangin' in the sky
And the world is wide awake outside
And I know there's things we need to do
But I just want to draw the blinds and...

Say goodnight
Oh won't you let me pull you into me
Go wherever all these kisses lead

You've got a heart that's broken and a will that's given up
A cynical mind and a soul that's worn and rough
You're a fighter, no one can get the best of you
Don't let 'em stay to close that's why you play every man for a fool

I don't care you can live your life alone
Was only tryin' to show you how to love again
Tried and tried to chip away your heart of stone

Everyday someone asks me what's my story and what do I like to do

And everyday, for the most part, I only go so far; I almost never tell the truth

'Cause the truth is behind me there's not much, to give up, I like simple, not complicated


Chorus:

That's The Way

I sit here in my bed, with you in my head, haunting my mind
I think of all we had, all the good and bad and all of the times
We'd sit down and talk, sometimes till three or four o'clock in the morning

I live in misery, haunted by your memory, and the love that I felt
Guess that was not enough, you fell out of love, something you couldn't help

The sorry you whispered meets you I replied
As we both sat there at the end of the line
It's not like either of us didn't fight
When the bell was ringing
When we went down swinging, you know
I never thought we'd be one more tragedy
You and me, we're supposed to beat the odds
When you stick it out or when you don't give in

Give me skies of black and blue, the way you make me feel
Give me skies of green and red, cold winds that make it real
Storms are brewing deep within of hurt and loss and pride
It's good to see the world in pain when I take a walk outside

When it rains, I don't mind being lonely, I cry right along with the sky
When it rains, I don't pretend to be happy, I don't even have to try
When it rains, Some people get down, They're sporting a frown, so I fit right in

It's good there was a full moon out that night
I can still recall your body in the pale white light
When love's not love it sure felt right
Who would have known you were the crazy type.

We were teaching each other how to love
After all it couldn't be that tough
On the bank of the river with the stars above

Baby you've had your share of a love that went nowhere
It starts out honest then ends in broken promises
I know what you've been through but girl I promise you
I'm not gonna do what you think I'm gonna do, no
Your last broken heart was your last broken heart, baby
Say goodbye to goodbye, I ain't ever gonna change my mind
This is the part where our forever starts
So your last broken heart was your last broken heart
