Out There

PFG's coming cross the creek
Z71, headlights shinin through the trees
The boys spill out of the back seat
And ask me, what's it gonna be tonight
I said I'm just trying to get loose, trying to make a move
Don't matter what we do

As long as we're out there
Somewhere where we can go
Get away from it all, get lost
And god only knows where we'll go
And hell I don't care
As long as we're out there

We pulled in, threw it in park
And follow the orange glow in the dark
And the trail marks
Through the fire and flames we locked eyes
She walked over from the other side
And smiled when I said
I'm just trying to get loose, trying to set the mood
Don't matter what we do (yeah what we do)

As long as we're out there
Somewhere where we can go
Get away from it all, get lost
And god only knows where we'll go
And baby I don't care
As long as we're out there
As long as we're out there, yeah

As long as we're out there
Somewhere where we can go
Get away from it all, get lost
And god only knows where we'll go
And hell I don't care
As long as we're out there
As long as we're out there, yeah

Memories Are Made Of

Cheap boat six pack of something light
A fireball burning up the blue sky
Mercury 93 wasn't even half past noon

Our first taste of freedom after high school
Breaking hearts and curfews and mama's rules
I just laugh thinking 'bout all the shit that we got into to
Yeah those were the days we thought we'd never lose

But we did
And we miss
How it was when we were just kids
Looking back
On the past
Wasn't much but it's what we had
Just a couple Buds and a good buzz is all it was
But that's what memories are made of

It's been so long since me and Katie first met
We lost touch and as of all the years went
Flying past, fading fast
Wishing that I could making her mine
There are some things that seem to take you right back
I see her face
Every time I hear that
Lynyrd Skynyrd, bottle spin
I'm in her arms in my mind
Yeah those were the days we thought we never lose (never lose)

But we did
And we missed
How it was when we were just kids
Looking back
On the past
Wasn't much but it's we had
Just a good buzz from a summer love was all it was
Yeah that's what memories are made of

Yeah those were the days we thought we'd never lose
But we did
And we missed
How it was when we were just kids
Looking back
On the past
Wasn't much but it's we had
Just a couple Buds and a good buzz was all it was
Yeah summer love was all it was
But that's what memories are made of

Lonely One

Honey, how's that drink goin' down
Seems a little stiff for 2 P.M
Holler if you need anything
I've got an ear to lend
I'll be right here cuttin' lines
Countin' cash and stockin' beers
I've got an idea what's on your mind
So in the meantime, think on this

[Chorus]
I've seen girls like you in here before
Watched broken hearts break
Though that door a time or two
And I'll bet he packed all his things
You set out to curse his name and have a few
And I'll bet you're doin' your best to move on
Well, you're not the only lonely one

This ain't my first rodeo
I've seen the other side of this bar
Pourin' salts on an open wound
Sittin' right there where you are
And I know it probably stings right now
Somehow more than that Jim Bean
But that clock on the wall will cure it all
Even though that ain't how it seems

I've seen girls like you in here before
Watched broken hearts break
Though that door a time or two
And I'll bet he packed all his things
You set out to curse his name and have a few
And I'll bet you're doin' your best to move on
Well, you're not the only lonely one

I've seen 'em come, I've seen 'em go
Girl, you ain't in this thing alone
Oh no, oh no

I've seen girls like you in here before
Watched broken hearts break
Though that door a time or two
And I'll bet he packed all his things
You set out to curse his name and have a few
And I'll bet you're doin' your best to move on
Well, you're not the only lonely one
No, you're not the only lonely one

Beer Can

I've been working this job 9 to 5
Minium wage and overtime
But here comes a few days of unpaid vacation
And there ain't no way jose i'll waste them
'Cause there ain't no better feeling then when

I pick up a beer can
And get to feeling like superman
Its Friday night yah
Hears the plan
I'm gonna throw back a couple an'
Keep it 'em glued to my right hand
Any flavor, size, or brand
Until the point where I can't stand
No, nothing picks me up like a beer can

Well I woke up at 1 pm
And introduced myself to my new girlfriend
And there's a racking ball size hole in the wall in the basement
I ain't got no clue how or who could've made it
Well all I knew how is shit hit the fan
And here we go again

So I pick up a beer can
And get to feeling like superman
It's Saturday out
Heres the plan
I'm gonna throw back a couple an'
Keep it 'em glued to my right hand
Any flavor, size, or brand
Until the point where I can't stand
No, nothing picks me up like a beer can

Well it's Sunday now
And I'm freaking out 'cause I can't handle 5 days without

Yeah I'm picking up a beer can
And get to feeling like superman
Its Sunday, who gives a damn
I'm gonna throw back a couple an'
Keep it 'em glued to my right hand
Any flavor, size, or brand
Till the point where I can't stand
No, nothing picks me up like a beer can

Like a beer can
No, nothing picks me up like a beer can

Hurricane

Hadn't had a good time
Since you know when
Got talked into goin' out
With hopes you were stayin' in

I was feeling like myself for the first time
In a long time
'Till I bumped into some of your friends
Over there talkin' to mine

Then you roll in with your hair in the wind
Baby without warning
I was doin' alright but just your sight
Had my heart stormin'

The moon went hiding
Stars quit shining
Rain was driving
Thunder 'n lightning
You wrecked my whole world when you came
And hit me like a hurricane
You hit me like a hurricane

Knew it was gonna be a long night
From the moment when
We locked eyes over whiskey on ice
Talkin' 'bout us again
If I woulda just layed my drink down
And walked out
I wouldn't be in my truck
Driving us to your house

But you rolled in with your hair in the wind
Baby without warning
I was doin alright but just your sight
Had my heart stormin'

The moon went hiding
Stars quit shining
Rain was driving
Thunder 'n lightning
You wrecked my whole world when you came
And hit me like a hurricane
You hit me like a hurricane

Yeah we go to five
With your smile, blew me away
And girl it ain't but midnight
She gon' kill the lights
Bring my heart back to your bedside
Then you roll in with your hair in the wind
Baby without warning
I was doin' alright but just your sight
Had my heart stormin'

The moon went hiding
Stars quit shining
Rain was driving
Thunder 'n lightning
You wrecked my whole world when you came
And hit me like a hurricane
You hit me like a hurricane
Hit me like a hurricane

One Number Away

Are you sitting at home all alone trying to fall asleep?
Are you staring a hole through your phone praying that it rings?
Are you watching a movie that you've seen a thousand times?
Maybe playing some Mayer getting lost in your favorite lines?

Well, if you're anything like me
You just might be doing whatever it takes to drown out the noise
But I just wanna hear your voice

And I'm one number away from calling to you
I said I was through, but I'm dying inside
Got my head in a mess, girl, I confess
I lied when I said, "I'm leaving and not coming back"
Might be the whiskey or the midnight rain
But everywhere I go, I see your face
In my brain, dial it up, everything I want to say
But I'm still one number away

Are you stuck at a red light with a Marlboro Light on your lips?
Does the smoke in your mirror get clearer without my kiss?
Are you changing the station replacing our favorite song?
Maybe it's a mistake, hit the brakes, I'm moving on

Well, if you're anything like me
You just might be doing whatever it takes to outrun the storm
But I'm almost out that door

And I'm one number away from calling to you
I said I was through, but I'm dying inside
Got my head in a mess, girl, I confess
I lied when I said, "I'm leaving and not coming back"
Might be the whiskey or the midnight rain
But everywhere I go, I see your face
In my brain, dial it up, everything I want to say
But I'm still one number away

Will you pick up when I call?
Or just forget we loved at all?
We don't have to talk, I just wanna hear your voice

And I'm one number away from calling to you
I said I was through, but I'm dying inside
Got my head in a mess, girl, I confess
I lied when I said, "I'm leaving and not coming back"
Might be the whiskey or the midnight rain
But everywhere I go, I see your face
In my brain, dial it up, everything I want to say
But I'm still one number away
Away, away
Yes, you're one number away

Don't Tempt Me

I've been doing my best to make church on Sundays
And ain't been calling in hungover most Mondays
I guess you could say I'm being grown up
I got my shit together and oddly enough I don't mind
'Cause it's about time
But if you second guessin', don't think for a second
That I can't hang

'Cause I've been known to get a little bit wild and reckless
Known to have a little bit of beer with breakfast
You can bet these boots have got a little used to
Stomping on a hardwood floor
And buying the bar another round of shots
Close my tab and hit the parking lot
Next stop is a spot with a fridge stocked on the back porch
I ain't afraid to take too many steps out of line
So don't tempt me with a good time

Well most folks think I don't know how to throw down
They done forgot about Rowdy
But no doubt he's still around
So keep cracking those jokes
'Cause I'm willing and able
Yeah, this old boy'll drink you under the table

'Cause I've been known to get a little bit wild and reckless
Known to have a little bit of beer with breakfast
You can bet these boots have got a little used to
Stomping on a hardwood floor
And buying the bar another round of shots
Close my tab and hit the parking lot
Next stop is a spot with a fridge stocked on the back porch
I ain't afraid to take too many steps out of line
So don't tempt me with a good time

At 3 AM I'm still hanging tough
My buddy's passed out in the bed of my truck
And I can't wait 'til he wakes up
And see the pictures on his phone

'Cause I've been known to get a little bit of wild and reckless
Known to have a little bit of beer with breakfast
You can bet these boots have got a little used to
Stomping on a hardwood floor
And buying the bar another round of shots
Close my tab and hit the parking lot
The next stop is a spot with a fridge stocked on the back porch
I ain't afraid to take too many steps out of line
So don't tempt me with a good time
With a good time

When It Rains It Pours

Sunday morning, man, she woke up fighting mad
Bitching and moaning on and on 'bout the time I had
And by Tuesday, you could say that girl was good as gone
And then when Thursday came around, I was all alone

So I went for a drive to clear my mind, ended up at a Shell on I-65

Then I won a hundred bucks on a scratch off ticket
Bought two twelve packs and a tank of gas with it
She swore they were a waste of time, oh, but she was wrong
I was caller number five on a radio station, won a four-day, three-night, beach vacation
Deep sea, senorita, fishing down in Panama
And I ain't gotta see my ex future mother-in-law anymore
Oh lord, when it rains it pours

Now she was sure real quick to up and apologize
When she heard about my new found luck on that FM dial
And it's crazy how, lately now, it just seems to come in waves
What I thought was gonna be the death of me was my saving grace

It's got me thinking that her leaving is the only logical reason

That I got the last spot in the Hooter's parking lot
And the waitress left her number on my check with a heart
She picked up on the first ring when I gave her a call
And I only spent five bucks at the Moose Club Raffle
Won a used four-wheeler and three free passes
For me and two of my buddies to play a round of golf
And I ain't gotta see my ex future mother-in-law anymore
Oh lord, when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours

And I've been on a hell of a redneck road for three weeks now
And it all started on the day that she walked out

Then I won a hundred bucks on a scratch off ticket
Bought two twelve packs and a tank of gas with it
She swore they were a waste of time, oh, but she was wrong
I was caller number five on a radio station, won a four-day, three-night, beach vacation
Deep sea, senorita, fishing down in Panama
And I ain't gotta see my ex future mother-in-law anymore
Oh lord, when it rains it pours
When it rains it pours

This One's for You

There's a couple people that I owe a beer or two
And three or four I owe more than a few
For all the times I couldn't find the answers
Stumbling through the dark without a clue
This one's for you

Mom and daddy always did their best
For a crazy fool who couldn't help himself
I thank God they were there to see me through
This one's for you

I told you all I'd write you a song
Pour my heart in the melody
To keep you singing along
This might not be the right time
These might not be the right lines to prove
For saying what I'm trying to
But this one's for you

I've been knocked down time and time again
Got picked back up by love and few good friends
Who reminded me of all I stood to lose
This one's for you

Yeah I told you all I'd write you a song
Pour my heart in the melody
To keep you singing along
This might not be the right time
These might not be the right lines to prove
For saying what I'm trying to
This one's for you

Made more than my fair share of the same mistakes
Bridges burned and lessons learned
A few things that I can't change
Some apologies are way past overdue
So this one's for you

Oh, I told you all I'd write you a song
Pour my heart in the melody
To keep you singing along
This might not be the right time
And these might not be the right lines to prove
For saying what I'm trying to
This one's for you

There's a couple people that I owe a beer or two
And three or four I owe than a few

Be Careful What You Wish For

Couldn't wait to ride out of that one horse town
Didn't see no use in sticking around
I was green and busting at the seams to leave
I was sitting on G, waiting on O
The day I hit eighteen, I hit the road
Traded that county maintain for a four lane city street

But sometimes things ain't what you think they're gonna be
What you want ain't always what you need

Don't know what you got 'til it's gone and you're out on your own
All you want is what you can't get back
Once you let it go, then you know what you have
Don't hold a candle to what you had
Sometimes what you think you'll find
It ain't quite what real life has in store
So be careful what you wish for

She was holding on just a little too tight
Talked a little too much about the rest of our lives
I broke her heart thinking freedom would set me free
Well sometimes things ain't what you think they're gonna be

Don't know what you got 'til it's gone and you're out on your own
All you want is what you can't get back
Once you let it go, then you know what you have
Don't hold a candle to what you had
Sometimes what you think you'll find
It ain't quite what real life has in store
So be careful what you wish for

'Cause these city lights can't shine quite like the stars
I wish I could wish her back into my arms

Don't know what you got 'til it's gone And you're out on your own
All you want is what you can't get back
Once you let it go, then you know what you have
Don't hold a candle to what you had
Sometimes what you think you'll find
It ain't quite what real life has in store
And you can't get her back no more
So be careful what you wish for
Be careful what you wish for

I Got Away with You

Well I got caught in Panama City trying to buy some beer for some Georgia girls
And I got wore out by my daddy for stealing cigarettes from the Smokes and More
When all my friends would get away, seems I'd get caught plane as day
I took the blame for every little thing

But I got away with you
And somehow I still ain't been found out
It's a crazy truth like I strolled out the gates of Alcatraz
And I walked in the Louvre now the Mona Lisa's hanging in my house
I bust out of Buckingham with the crown jewels, and I got away with you

Looking like you do, on its damn own should be a crime
Let alone a fool like me, hand in hand with you should be doin' time
But here we are running free, guess someone turned the other cheek
'Cause there ain't no blue lights in rear view

Yes I got away with you
And somehow I still ain't been found out
It's a crazy truth like I strolled out the gates of Alcatraz
And I walked in the Louvre now the Mona Lisa's hanging in my house
I bust out of Buckingham with the crown jewels, and I got away with you

I'd take it all, the fails the falls
The county jails the one phone calls
I'd do it all again if I had to

'Cause I got away with you
And somehow, girl, I still ain't been found out
It's a crazy truth like I strolled out the gates of Alcatraz
And I walked in the Louvre now the Mona Lisa's hanging in my house
I bust out of Buckingham with the crown jewels, when I got away with you
When I got away with you
Yeah, I got away with you

Honky Tonk Highway

In my Prevost
Headin' down to Alabama
I got a three night run
We're gonna kick it off in Birmingham

Headlights, wide lines
Flying down 65
Tryna catch a few hours sleep
Tomorrow comes, show time
That's when I know I'm
Living that neon dream

Oh I got the boys
And the band
And a one night stand
Waiting on us down the road
We're gonna load it in
Crank it to 10
Whiskey shots at 2AM
And off to another show
And then it's back to my baby for
A couple days
But I can only stay for so long
'Til that Honky Talk Highway's calling me home

Rolling into Mobile
Name on the marquee sign
Waving at the women that are standing in the ticket line
Well point me to the stage
I know that's the only place I'm ever gonna wanna be
Smoky bars, guitars
Breakin' all the girls hearts
That's the only life for me

Oh I got the boys
And the band
And a one night stand
Waiting on us down the road
We're gonna load it in
Crank it to 10
Whiskey shots at 2AM
And off to another show
And then it's back to my baby for
A couple days
But I can only stay for so long
'til that Honky Talk Highway's calling me home

Oh I got the boys
And the band
And a one night stand
Waiting on us down the road
We're gonna load it in
Crank it to 10
Whiskey shots at 2AM
And off to another show
And then it's back to my baby for
A couple days
But I can only stay for so long
'til that Honky Talk Highway's calling me home

'til that Honky Talk Highway's calling me home
