Альбом George Strait

I'm drifting into deep water,
I'm starting to care for you.
You're gettin' me in deep water,
Be careful what you do.

You want a romance, but I'm seeking love.
I know I'll regret it when it ends.
I'm winding up in deep water.
Why can't we just be friends?

There's restless and there's deep water.
I'm lost between right and wrong.
My love is true as deep water.
Your love won't last as long.

Where will it lead me and where will it end?
I can't help but wish I only knew.
I'm winding up in deep water.

I burn with desire
each time my heart fans the fire
To that old flame
that burns inside of me
She cried when I left her
now I try to forget her
Oh how foolish I was
to ever wanna leave

Chorus:
Because nobody in his right mind
would've left her
I had to be crazy to say good bye
Nobody in his right mind
could've left her
Even my heart was smart enough
to stay behind

I still carry her picture
I wish her well
with the new love
I know she's found by now
Each night finds me dreamin'
each day I spend thinkin'
How much I wish
she was still around

Because nobody in his right mind
would've left her
I had to be crazy to say good bye
Nobody in his right mind
could've left her
Even my heart was smart enough
to stay behind

I'd rather be home,
but I make my livin' on the go
Big silver eagle spreads her wings
and drops us at another show
I think about holdin' my baby tonight
as I listin to the big wheels roll
Three days into a six week tour,
gettin' in the rhythm of the road

We pick and sing,
say ""goodnight"" then we'll be flyin'
My world's a chain of one-night-stands
strung together by the center line
I don't know where I'll wake up tomorrow,
but I can't let the tempo slow
Every town is just another beat,
livin' in the rhythm of the road

The rhythm of the road's got a mind of its own
If you find it it'll drive you insane
Like the clackity-clack of a railroad track
I'm rattlin' like an old freight train
Towns are flashin' by, the folks are wavin' ""hi""
They all start to look the same
Gotta stop for a minute, be glad I'm in it
Remember just why I came

Those highway signs, Lord, they keep me on the move
I think about givin' it up sometimes,
and gettin' in a diff'ren groove
But I just let the days slide by,
get goin' with the flow
A four/four beat's the only time I keep,
livin' in the rhythm of the road
A four/four beat's the only time I keep,
livin' in the rhythm of the road

Let's turn the lights down soft and low
And watch the fire embers glow
Let's lock the world outside the door
This is the night we've been waiting for

The moon is shining through the window pane
I hear the echo of a passing train
Taking someone's lover far away
But in your arms is where I wanna stay

Tonight I'm the luckiest man in the world
Wrapped in the arms of a beautiful girl
And now that I've found you
I'm never gonna let you go

Let your hair fall across your breast
Show me the warmth of your soft caress
The music's playin' soft and slow
We're driftin' into the afterglow

Tonight I'm the luckiest man in the world
Wrapped in the arms of a beautiful girl
And now that I've found you
I'm never gonna let you go

I'm never gonna let you go

I'm never gonna let you go

I feel the same way that I always have.
You still get to me, like you used to do.
I can't complain dear you make my life complete.
After all this time honey it's still true.
I want to thank you over and over.
I'm gonna love you through and through.
If you changed dear, you just got better.
You still get to me, like you used to do.

When I'm down dear, there's no way I can hide.
You still get to me, like you used to do.
And if I feel blue, your love is like a light
That you shine for me just to see me through.
I'm here to tell you over and over I just love you 'cause you're you.
If you changed dear, you just got better.

I hate to admit it
But somebody else came along and took you're love away
And tonight as I lay here
All alone in this room
He's out there some where
Takin' my place

Stranger things have happened to me
And it's getting all over town
That stranger things have happened to me
That stranger is holding her now

She said I had better stop running around
Or she was gonna find somebody new
And that lady meant it
Because now she's gone
And someone else is walking in my shoes

Stranger things have happened to me
And it's getting all over town
That stranger things have happened to me
That stranger is holding her now

(Dean Dillon, Royce Porter)

I thought you and me were something special
Thought you thought that way too
Now I know that this old boy just ain't the
best you think you'll ever do

Chorus:
It ain't cool
to be crazy about you
It ain't suave or debonair
to let you know I care
like I do
It ain't smart
to be so reckless with my heart
I should've known right from the start
I'd end up like a fool
believe me it ain't cool

All of my friends they tried to tell me
what and what not to do
It took a while for them to sell me
but finally they got through

Seems you cam along at the right time
A fallin' in love is all my idea
Others warned me about the broken hearts
You left behind
Now why'd you have to go and prove em right
Now thanks to you
I know just how they feel

And because of you
My heart is broke in to
I'm feelin' like a fool
For puttin' my trust in you
You left me wonderin' why
You didn't even say goodbye
Well excuse me if I'm now that smart
But why'd you go and break my heart

And because of you
My heart is broke in to
I'm feelin' like a fool
For puttin' my trust in you
You left me wonderin' why
You didn't even say goodbye
Well excuse me if I'm now that smart
But why'd you go and break my heart

Well excuse me if I'm not that smart

Just a one pump fil-in station
Lord and one old general store
I found her in that wide spot in the road

And the brightest lights she'd ever seen
Were the headlights on my pickup
Till she saw the lights behind those swinging doors

And everywhere she goes
She leaves the jukebox smoking
Everywhere she's been
There's ashes on the ground

I see the glow in the sky
Through the teardrops in my eyes
My old flame's out burning
Another honky tonk down

So country, young and pretty
She's never been no where before
And I lost her behind those swinging doors

Now it's just me and my old pickup
Making every joint in town
Cuz tonight she's out somewhere to burn one down

And everywhere she goes
She leaves the jukebox smoking
Everywhere she's been
There's ashes on the ground

I see the glow in the sky
Through the teardrops in my eyes
My old flame's out burning
Another honky tonk down

My old flame's out burning

C'mon along and we'll go down
To a place in Texas called Cow Town

You'll never meet a stranger there
Ev'rybody knows if you're in town

Chorus:
They'll meet you with a smile and a
'Howdy, How you all' and just a little while
You'll get that Texas drawl
The hats are wide and the boots are brown
You'll just love this place called Cow Town

No matter where I may wonder
No matter where I may roam
There's a place way down yonder
I'm goin there and make it my home

C'mon along and we'll go down
To a place in Texas called Cow Town

You'll never meet a stranger there
Ev'rybody knows if you're in town

Repeat Chorus
