We don't' flip the bird
We don't cuss and scream
When the cars don't move, when the light turns green
We don't lock our doors, when we leave the house
There ain't nobody here that we'd keep out
That's the way we do in our town

Chorus
You'll never hear me apologize
For growing up strong, growing up right
Livin' life by the golden rule
Say yes ma'm thank you
Green fields for miles and miles
Ain't nothing but country on the radio dial
I thank the good Lord I was born and bred
Corn fed

There ain't no burning flags
On our courthouse square
You see ole' glory flying everywhere
There ain't no valet joint
With five star atmosphere
Daddy's home grown beef's what's dinner here
And we wash if down with a tall cold beer

Repeat Chorus

Roosters crows 6 am, John Deere pulling that plow again
Sweat on your face hands in the dirt
Ain't nothing better on God's green Earth

Repeat Chorus

Well I thank the good Lord I was born and bred

Written by Shannon Brown / Vicky McGehee / John Rich

He walked up
All buff
In his cowboy cuts
Bringing on his best come on lines
His words of choice
Of course
Would you like to save a ______
And ride a cowboy tonight
You know he thought he had me raring to go
Like some kind of ho
Whoa
But what he didn't know

Chorus
It takes a big man
It takes a big, big man
It takes a really big man
To love a little woman like me

Daddy Mac
Lots of cash
In his long Cadillac
Thinks he can have his way with anyone
He thinks
With a wink
He can buckle my knees
And my heart will just come undone
But I'm the kind of girl
Who don't like to rush
Into a touch
If I'm gonna get serious

Written by John Rich / Julian Bunetta / Blair Daly

Everybody knows that Shania ain't country
That's what they used to say about Johnny Cash
And Garth Brooks shouldn't be smashing those guitars
But a hundred million records ain't bad

And all the girls say they wanna be like Dolly
Pardon me but I think it's Sheryl Crow
If you ask me I say screw all the boundries
Cause it's all about whatever moves your soul

Chorus
And I think it's time we climbed off our high horses
Who's to say whose right or wrong
I think it's 'bout time that we all get together
Raise our glasses and sing along

Well I love Patsy and I like Bob Marley
He sang about one love, one love
And sometimes I fly like an eagle
With Steve Miller playing in my pickup truck

And the country boys like that Kid rockin' in Detroit
Cause he's got about as much southern soul as ole Hank
And who'd of ever thought that Mr. Kenny Chesney
Would be laughing all the way to the bank

Repeat Chorus

Well everybody's got their little opinions
It's either too much of this or not enough of that
Why can't we just live life the way we want to live it
And got off each others backs

Repeat Chorus

Everybody knows that Shania ain't country

Written by John Rich / Vicky McGehee / Gretchen Wilson

Baby that look on you face
Seems to say it all
I've never seen you acting this way
It's like you just hit a wall
So put your keys back on the table
Leave that bottle on the shelf
Please don't look for comfort somewhere else

Chorus
If you're gonna turn to something
Baby just turn to me
I'm listening
You can tell me anything
I know you want to find yourself
An easy remedy
But if you're gonna turn to something
Baby just turn to me

Crying and coming undone
Don't make you less of a man
You know everybody needs someone
Every now and then
Baby I know you're hurting
You want to make it go away
But don't let some brand of bourbon
Take my place

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
Hey it's ok if you want to fall apart
There ain't no better place, then right here in my arms

Written by Shannon Brown / Blair Daly / Troy Verges

I don't feel hung over I don't feel strung out
Could I be clean and sober, did I finally lay it down
The drug of his love
Is out of my blood

It's a revelation, like be born again
Have you ever had that feeling, when you wash away your sin
Your soul is set free
Does anybody know what I mean?

Chorus
Can I get an amen
Can I get a witness
Tell me are you with me
Holla' if you hear this
Can I get an amen
Amen

This freedom that I'm tasting, is such a better buzz
After all the time wasted, things are looking up
There's a light that I see
Does anybody know what I mean?

Repeat Chorus

No more tears, no more heartache, no more, no more, no more pain!

Repeat Chorus

Can I get an amen

Come on throw your hands up
Shout a halleluyah
Everybody sing
Let the spirit move ya
Can I get an amen!

Repeat Chorus

Come on throw your hands up
Shout a halleluyah
Everybody sing
Let the spirit move ya

Written by Shannon Brown / Billy Crain / Tammy Hyler

There are moments that I am unable to breathe
The pain is strangling me
I shake my fist at the sky
Then fall down on my knees
Screaming how can this be
I think that I'd rather die
Than go on feeling so bad so sad so mad

Chorus
Then I remember
How I felt when you'd smile
And I remember we had it all for a while
Just when I think I can't face one more day
And go on, the way I should
I remember, I remember something good

Piece by piece is how I gather
My broken heart
The jagged edges are sharp
I can't look in your eyes I can't feel your sweet touch
And it's tearing me up
Every minute that I'm here is one more
Without you I need you why you

2nd Chorus
Then I remember how you'll always live inside me
And I remember it's your love that carries me
Just when I think I can't face one more day
And go on the way I should
I remember, I remember something good

Just when I think I can't face one more day
And go on the way I should

Written by John Rich / Blair Daly / Shane Mack

There's a Stetson in the back of the room
And he's movin' to a hip hop groove
And he's doin' it like a country boy do, yeah

And there's Jenny givin' it all she's got
She's dancin' with a bombshell blonde
They're shakin' it up on the table top
You don't have to worry what your mama said,
Just check that baggage at the front door

Chorus
Welcome to the good ole days, get here early stay up late
If you get funky it's okay
There's something goin' on in here, it's not your average atmosphere
Everybody's so glad you came, welcome to the good ole days

We got a D.J., we call him Dreadlock Jones
And he's mixing Haggard and Stones
Keeps it bumpin' all night long
You can two step, you can bust a move
Be a redneck or you can just play it smooth
Well it's all about finding your own groove

Forget about tomorrow and your yesterdays
Just let it go and live for tonight

Written by Shannon Brown / Vicky McGehee / John Rich

We'll I've kissed a cowboy on a sawdust floor
Shot tequila with him till we couldn't dance no more
Ran a hundred miles an hour with a Harley man
Stuck to him tighter than his sexy biker tan
Sailed with a boy on his big ole yacht
Drank Dom Perignon while we island hopped
I like preacher sons
And hell raisers, guitar pickers
And wave surfers

Chorus
No I've never really had a type
I just like a man who'll treat me right
As long as they got a good heart
Big or small
Short or tall
I love 'em all

And them city dudes in there tailored suits
Make me wanna do things that I shouldn't do
But, you know what really drives me nuts
Are the George Strait ringers with there wrangler butts

Repeat Chorus

I've met a lot of fellows from North to South
Sweet clean talkers and dirty mouths
I hope someday I'll find someone
That'll be all of them wrapped up in one

Repeat Chorus

It ain't who they are or who they wanna be
It's all about how they treat me
As long as they got a good heart
Big or small
Short or tall
Long hair or bald

Written by John Rich / Vicky McGehee / Rodney Clawson

It's 3 am and you finally say
You're sorry for acting that way
You didn't really mean to make me cry
Oh baby, sometimes I wonder

Chorus
Why does it always have to come down to me leaving
Before you'll say "I love you"
Why do you always use the words that cut the deepest
When you know how much it hurts me
Oh baby why, do you do that to me

I know you'd never let me walk away
So why do you push me till I break
Why am I always on the verge of goodbye
Before you'll show me how you really feel inside

Repeat Chorus

Why do you always use the words that cut the deepest
When you know how much it hurts me
Oh baby why, do you do that to me

Why do you do that to me

Written by Shannon Brown / Shaye Smith / Tammy Hyler

These pearls from my mother, passed down from her mother
Of everything they gave me, I treasure them most
Can't wear them, can't hold them, don't come from the ocean
Oh, they're way more precious than anything I own
They're written in my soul

Chorus
Remember who you are, and don't forget to pray
Make sure he's your best friend
When you give your heart away
Be kind, be strong,
Be someone everyone can count on
Yeah, someday
I'm gonna give my little girl
These pearls

I'll teach her about make-up, boyfriends and break-ups
I'll share all the wisdom I've ever learned
Like beauty's on the inside, give it your best try
I'll pass down the same words I've always heard
And she'll carry them with her

Repeat Chorus

Bridge She'll tell her daughter, and she'll tell hers too
I've saved these pearls just for you

Written by John Rich / Vicky McGehee

One look and you know what's coming
Storm cloud is moving in
Ain't no use in running
Just take it like a man

Oh Lord what have you started
Cold front is settin' in
Shelter no you can't find it
Judgement day is here again

Chorus
Oh you better find some cover
Ooh when you hear that rumblin' sound
Mmm cause there ain't no warning
Oh when your woman comes unwound yeah
She brings the thunder
She brings the lightning down

The straight line that you've been walking
Lately is wearing thin
You can't help but cross it
Every now and then

Written by Shannon Brown / Phillip B. White

I live on a hill overlooking the skyline
With a breathtaking view of the big city bright lights
A hand full of stars and a heart full of dreams
Brought me down this road that's never what it seems

Here I'm just another face and just another voice
Just a wanna be that's gonna be if I have a choice
The woman I am ain't the one that I was
You say I've come to my roots long enough

Chorus
I can't run from the past that's given me wings
If I had to choose between this and what's left of me
Then I choose me
I guess I've come a long way for a small town girl

There was a time I would have done anything
Trade in my soul just to play in the game
Put my pride on the table, put my name on the line
It's a job that I love but it's not my life

Repeat Chorus x 2
