They used to call me lightening
I was always quick to strike
Had everything I own
in the saddles on my bike
I had a reputation
for never staying very long
just like a wild and restless drifter
like a cowboy in a song
I met a darkhaired beauty
where they lay the whiskey down
in southern Arizona
in a little border town
she had to dance for money
in that dusty old saloon
I dropped a dollar in the jukebox
played that girl a tune, yea
Never see it comin'
just hits you by surprise
it's that cold place in your soul
and the fire in her eyes
makes you come together
like wild horses when they run
now the cards are on the table and
the bullets in the gun
she was sittin' on my lap
we still had shots to kill
when a man pulled up
who owned the bar
in a cadillac deville
he grabbed her by her raven hair
and threw her on the floor
said no free ride for the cowboy
that aint' what I pay you for
she jumped up and grabbed my pistol
stuck it in the fat man's back
said open up the safe
and put your money in the sack
then tied his hands behind him
and blindfolded his eyes
said if you're dumb enough to chase us man
you're dumb enough to die
Never see it comin'
just hits you by surprise
it's that cold place in your soul
and the fire in her eyes
makes you come together
like wild horses when they run
now the cards are on the table and
the bullets in the gun
we rode across the border
down into Mexico
when you're runnin' from the law
ain't that where everybody goes
we came upon a town
with a name I couldn't spell
she gave me what I came for
in that Mexican motel
I woke up beside her
to the sound of running feet
50 Federales locked and loaded in the street
she grabbed my 44
i grabbed the money in the sack
I kissed her for the last time
and we headed out the back
They were almost on us
And every heartbeat pounded
the only thing that's left to do
when they got you all surrounded
she fired that old pistol
but we didn't stand a prayer
money hit the gravel
man, bullets filled the air
Never see it comin'
just hits you by surprise
it's that cold place in your soul
and the fire in her eyes
makes you come together
like wild horses when they run
now the cards are on the table and
the bullets in the gun

I walk downtown in my broke down shoes
To the side street pub with the bar band blues
Take a backseat at the front door table
Order me a Bud and a shot of Black Label
Closed this place down once again
Sittin' here wishin' you'd walk right in
Down my shot, shoot my beer
I ain't gotta go home but I can't stay here
It's a short, short walk down to my second home
But that boulevard gets longer when you're walkin' back alone
And I don't know where you might be
Wherever it is, it will be without me
I keep thinkin' I'll come home
One day and find you
Long as I got that neon light
Shinin' like a beacon in the night
I know I can make it downtown by myself
'Cause if you don't know where you're goin'
You might end up somewhere else
Kickin' off my shoes, tumblin' through the front door
Knowin' too well the kind of night I'm in for
Cubs got beat again on Sports Center
My bedroom's cold as my tea with ...
One more cigarette and I'll kill the light
And only be wishin' you were sleepin' at my side
And I don't know where you might be
Wherever it is, it will be without me
I keep thinkin' I'll come home
One day and find you
Long as I got that front porch light
Shinin' like a beacon in the night
I know I can make it home all by myself
'Cause if you don't know where you're goin'
You might end up somewhere else
Girl, I don't know where you might be
Wherever it is, it will be without me
Keep thinkin' I'll come home
One day and find you
Long as I got that front porch light
Shinin' like a beacon in the night
I know I can make it home all by myself
'Cause if you don't know where you're goin'
You might end up somewhere else
Ah, somewhere else
You might end up somewhere else
Somewhere else
Hey

My neighbor carl, he lives next door
Pink flamingos on his porch
At night he teaches driving school
And he sits out by his plastic pool
He takes off his shirt he opens up a cold one
Old Carls Deans a fool but it takes one to know one
[Chorus:]
Musics playin up and down the block
Mostly chirstian blues, country folk and southern rock
It's a little piece of paradise way out here in the woods
There's always something going on down in the trailerhood
Across the street there's gambling James, always got the poker game
If you care to try your luck you can buy a seat for 15 bucks
You can call to raise or you can check and fold 'em
I like five card stud but it's moslty texas hold 'em
[Chorus]
My new tattoos and farmer tans, rodeo and nascar fans
Dallas Cowboy football on TV
When the storm starts gettig bad, you hear the those sirens humming
Grab a six pack and a lawn chair there's a tornado coming
.... alright ....
[Chorus]
I got 'er made in the shade with the moonshine lemonade
There's a party going on down in the trailerhood
Bring me another beer Momma

Two weeks notice would've been real nice
I could've put this broken heart on ice
Barely full of whiskey, all laid up in bed
Given up on what lies ahead
Could've quit my job and let my beard grow out
Another sad old story that you hear about
But I got nothin' from you
Came without a warning at all
It was hot and dry when you told me goodbye
Now isn't that a hell of a deal?
Right out of the blue, you broke it in two
Now you wanna know how I feel
Why don't you come around when the swellin' goes down?
Right now I'm doin' okay
Hit me back
I should know something in a couple of days
It ain't soakin' you but I know that old pain
It will come like the storm once it starts to rain
Right now the sky is just a couple of clouds
It's gonna be hell once the bottom falls out
I might head for shelter, I might run and hide
I might take my chances standin' outside
It's too early to tell
Hell, you just left me today
It was hot and dry when you told me goodbye
Now isn't that a hell of a deal?
Right out of the blue, you broke it in two
And now you wanna know how I feel
Why don't you come around when the swellin' goes down?
Right now I'm doin' okay
Hit me back
I should know something in a couple of days
Why don't you come around when the swellin' goes down?
Right now I'm doin' okay
Hit me back
I should know something in a couple of days
Girl, hit me back
I should know something in a couple of days

Thunderbird was July hot now
Muddy lake was the perfect spot for
Camp fire, drinkin' beer
Skippin' half your senior year
Told your mama little white one
She didn't want you hangin' out in the sun
With a small town roughneck man
That will never be nothin' but an old field hand
Shut up with your girl friend
'Bout the time a storm rode in
Wind got up, it was pourin' down
We could hear the sirens goin' off in town
We were kissin' in the rain, kissin' in the rain
Hittin' hard like a hurricane
Summer nights lit up with lightnin'
Soakin' wet starin' in your eyes and
We didn't care a thing about the thunder
While the angry sky we were under
Was raisin' Cane
We were kissin' in the rain
You got in too late that night
And you and mama had a fight
You weren't ever gonna win
Never got to see me again
Well, I get storm the days roll by
Now and then I still drive
Cross the dam in my old Ford
I get out and walk that shore
I still see you standin' there
Blue jeans too wet to wear
Hair all drenched and out of place
And mascara runnin' down your face
Every time the clouds get low
And the sirens start to blow
I get a sweet little déjà vu
My Thunderbird, me and you
Were kissin' in the rain, kissin' in the rain
Hittin' hard like a hurricane
Summer nights lit up with lightnin'
Soakin' wet starin' in your eyes and
We didn't care a thing about the thunder
While the angry sky we were under
Was raisin' Cane
We were kissin' in the rain
Yeah
Kissin' in the rain

Rollin' down the Interstate
Headin' out to Illinois
Runnin' 'bout 95
Listen to my engine, boy
Sand burnin' beano
Westcoast, turn around
I don't make no money, they love
Sittin' the friggin' trailer down
Peter Bills' pullin' out
Now I'm pulin' up behind and
Son, if you can't find 'em, ground 'em
Got the roadhouse rockin' on the radio
Takes a lot of rig to haul a big payload
Takes a lot of men to make the 18 road
Pop another white cross
Dodge another speed cop
Hit another truck stop
Drive it on home
Got the redneck romeo
Bagged all sittin' there
I'm wide open in a
Hammered down rockin' chair
Big bambino
Front door, green light
City ain't seen no
Bear traps all night
Need to stop and grab a bite
And I could use a tag along
Ladybug, where'd you go?
Great, you got your ears on
Got the roadhouse rockin' on the radio
Takes a lot of rig to haul a big payload
Takes a lot of men to make the 18 road
Pop another white cross
Dodge another speed cop
Hit another truck stop
Drive it on home
We got the roadhouse rockin' on the radio
Takes a lot of rig to haul a big payload
Takes a lot of men to make the 18 road
Pop another white cross
Dodge another speed cop
Hit another truck stop
Burn another black top
Makin' me some good time
Cross another county line
Pass the city limit sign
Drive it on home
Drive it on home, baby
I'm gonna push it, yeah
I'm gonna push it, baby
Ooh

I told you when I met you, don't try to love me
But I love you for trying to anyway
You're cryin' and it don't surprise me
That you can't find it in your heart to stay
This ain't the first time to be my own worst enemy
Baby, don't you worry, you found me
You ain't sayin' nothin' that ain't been said
You ain't leavin' somethin' that ain't been left
Ain't bringin' me nothin' I don't already know
You ain't doin' nothin' that ain't been done
Ain't startin' somethin' that ain't begun
And you say that it won't kill me to watch you go
But you ain't breakin' nothin' that ain't already broke
I used up all the whiskey
Me and Jesus got by
But still you goodbye kiss me
No matter how hard I try
I'm down lower than I like to go
This ain't the first time that I've dug out a lovin' soul
You ain't sayin' nothin' that ain't been said
You ain't leavin' somethin' that ain't been left
Ain't bringin' me nothin' I don't already know
You ain't doin' nothin' that ain't been done
Ain't startin' somethin' that ain't begun
And you say that it won't kill me to watch you go
But you ain't breakin' nothin' that ain't already broke
Ain't already alone, ain't already dealin' with you bein' gone
You ain't sayin' nothin' that ain't been said
You ain't leavin' somethin' that ain't been left
Ain't bringin' me nothin' I don't already know
You ain't doin' nothin' that ain't been done
Ain't startin' somethin' that ain't begun
I say that it won't kill me to watch you go
Baby, you ain't breakin' nothin' that ain't already broke
Already broke
Already broke
Already broke

This old heart didn't die
It's been broke by the best
But I made it out alive
When you laid our love to rest
Baby, it burned, that corner got turned
And I'm doin' well these days
I've got some stones so, girl, bring it on
What do you expect me to say?
Is that all you got, is that all there is?
All you can hit me with?
Still standin' tall after the fall
Girl, is that all you've got to do?
Sit around
Tryin' to bring a cloud of rain my way
See I found out
I can just sleep in on a stormy day
That sun's gonna shine and given the time
It'll be clear again
Out of the hole, back in control
And I took it square on the chin
Is that all you got, is that all there is?
All you can hit me with?
Still standin' tall after the fall
Girl, is that all you've got to give?
Is that all you got, is that all there is?
All you can hit me with?
Still standin' tall after the fall
Girl, is that all you've got to give?
Is that all you got?
Is that all there is?
Is that all you got?
Is that all there is?

I like your banjo in there
Girl, you drank all my beer
And the whiskey's all gone
I'm sittin' here
Ready to get it on
You got me thinkin' you won't
You got me thinkin' you might
And it's 3 o'clock in the mornin'
And I can't beat around the bush all night
We've already kissed
(We've already kissed)
We've already danced
(We've already danced)
You're wonderin' if
You ought to put on your shoes
Or pull down your pants
(Come on, pull down your pants)
What would it hurt?
Pull off that shirt
Babe, we've already come this far
Get out of your clothes
Or get out of my car
Whichever you choose
I'm ready to go
I could take you to the house, baby
Or I can drive it on home
We can do it right here
Or do it somewhere else
But make up your mind
Do something quick
Or I'm gonna do it myself
We've already kissed
(We've already kissed)
And we've already danced
(We've already danced)
You're wonderin' if
You ought to put on your shoes
Or pull down your pants
(Come on, pull down your pants)
What would it hurt?
Take off that shirt
Babe, we've already come this far
Get out of your clothes
Or get out of my car
We're gonna drive around a little while then
Let's do it over here in the middle, babe
We've already kissed
(We've already kissed)
We've already danced
(We've already danced)
And you're wonderin' if
You oughta pull off my boots
Or pull down your pants
(Come on, pull down your pants)
Hey, what would it hurt?
Take off that shirt
Babe, we've already come this far
Get out of your clothes
Or get out of my car
(Get out of my car)
I got out of my clothes
She got out of my car
What's up, babe?
Bye, bye, boredom
Strike 3

I've been a fool, I've been a fool
Forgivin' you each time you done me wrong
I've been a long time leavin' ya, but I'll be a long time gone
Loved you so much, loved you so much
I stayed around when I should've moved along
I've been a long time leavin' ya, but I'll be a long time gone
I say, "Hi there high line, hello highway"
Here come a big old semi my way
I stick up my thumb, hear the truck come
But the truck goes by and he looks like he's flyin'
And he whoops the big legs on my Levi's
They go woop woop woop woop woop
I've been a fool, I've been a fool
Forgivin' you each time that you've done me wrong
I've been a long time leavin' ya, but I'll be a long time gone
I say, "Hi, there high line, hello highway"
Here come a big old semi my way
I stick up my thumb, hear the truck come
But the truck goes by and he looks like he's flyin'
And he's whoopin' the big legs on my Levi's
They go woop woop woop woop woop woop woop woop
And I've been a fool, I've been a fool
Forgivin' you each time that you've done me wrong
I've been a long time leavin' ya, but I'll be a long time gone
Gone gone gone
Gone gone gone

Chug-a-lug chug-a-lug
Grape wine in a mason jar
Homemade and brought to school
By a friend of mine after class

Chug-a-lug chug-a-lug
4 H and an FFA
On a field trip to the farm
Me and friend sneek off behind
This big old barn
Where we uncovered a covered up
Moonshine still
And we thought we'd drink our fill
And I swallowed it with a smile

Chug-a-lug chug a lug
Make u wanna holla hidy hoe,
Burns your tummy don't you know

Jukebox and sawdust floor

But with the help of my fanaglein' uncle

Make u wanna holla hidy hoe,
