She donʼt even need a song, to say how strong her love is

she donʼt need to fancy dress, sheʼs beautiful when she wears jeans
and the wonder of her love is, that she gives it all to me

Cause sheʼs a great time on a saturday night

and I said it once and Iʼll say it again

Old Microphone

Smoke fallin down a mountain, into deep cedar swamps
as I drive down a dirt road to an old honky tonk
far away from nashiville, far away from home
sits a stage with a spot light, and an old microphone
yeah that old microphone

And its seen the greats and its watched ‘em fade to a woman, booze or a pill
And they paid the price just to live the life of a rock star honky tonk thrill
And that microphone it always knows it ain’t better on top of the hill
But if ya want a ride to a different high just ﬁnd that old microphone

Its been kissed by waylon its been cursed by cash
smelled moonshine on hank williams were they say he sang his last
on that old microphone
yeah that old microphone

Still trying to ﬁnd that microphone
I just gotta ﬁnd that microphone

Thank You

We all work, to pass the day
but theres a few real proud, risking there lives each day
we donʼt know, what you really see
but your still out there, being all that you can be
and sometimes I still wonder
if your ever thanked at all
cause paying taxes aint enough support for the ones answering the call
no not at all no

Well I want to thank you today
I want to shake your hand look you in the eye
see what makes the USA
yeah I want to thank you
cause a bumper sticker aint enough
to say Iʼm proud to say Iʼm glad to say you got my love
I want to thank you, yes I do

Most folks would crumble
and most would fall, Iʼm the ﬁrst one to admit
I couldnʼt were that camouﬂage
but my brother and my sister
you should know your not alone
cause I say a prayer every night just to keep you going strong
and sometimes I still wonder
if your ever thanked at all
cause raising that ﬂag and wearing that pin don’t measure up to you at all
I donʼt measure up to you, at all

Protectors of the weak
you keep this country free
when your feeling down turn this song on
theres millions more like me

and we want to thank you today
we want to shake your hand look you in the eye
and see what makes the USA
yeah we want to thank you
cause a bumper sticker aint enough
to say weʼre proud, to say weʼre glad, to say you got our love
we want to thank you, yes we do

Before My Eyes

Have you ever whistled a song
You swore ain’t ever been sung before
And did you just keep on going ’cause you just had to hear some more
That’s kinda like your love, that’s what it does
And I can’t get enough

And have you ever seen a sunrise
Like it was the day the earth was born
And did you just stand there watching as it lit up the early morn
That’s kinda like your love, yeah that’s what it does
And I cant get enough

‘Cause before you my world was grey
But now it’s straight to brighter day
And I donʼt know what else left to say
‘Cause you got me a hold so good
Like I new one day one girl would
How could I ever be so blind
When the love of my lifeʼs before my eyes

And have you ever stood along the ocean
And realized that your so small
Did you just stand there breathing to taste the cleansing salt
That’s kinda like your love, yeah that’s what it does
And I can’t get enough

Take Me Home

My hometown is a village
With one stop sign
Two gas stations and a railroad line
Look down the corner
To the yellow Restaurant
Yeah that’s where the elders sit in a circle and solve the world’s problems

In my home

I left a young man
Trying to escape
Yeah I tried to ﬁnd myself
A little better place
But there’s know where like that some where
Where everybody calls ya friend

Take me back to the place that I call home
In the country on the ridge
Where the apples grow
Take me back to the place that I call home
Cause this drifter lonely drifter
Yeah I can only go so long
Take me home

The canning factory closed down
So the train it don’t stop
No it keep on rolling right passed Bruce’s Barber shop
And if you go north of town
A couple country miles that’s right where
No that’s right where
Right where youʼll ﬁnd my house

My hometown is a village
With one stop sign
Two gas stations and a railroad line

Love Drunk Sick

Broke the hear of the preachers daughter
Smashed a mailbox on Main and 9th
Snuck in school painted kiss my ass
In the gym on the half court line
I partied all night slept all day
Couldn’t hold a job because I showed up late
Then you came along ruined it all
Grabbed my heart with them eyes
And those curls so blonde
I couldn’t tell you what just happened
Someone tell me what just happened

Yeah I was one bad apple fell a mile from the tree
You had to come along and polish me clean
I couldn’t tell you what just happened
Someone tell me what just happened

Cause now Iʼm openin’ doors
And pullin’ back chairs
Listenin’ to Elton John as someone
Cuts my hair
I threw away the bottle
And I hardly get a dip
Yeah my buddies all right
Iʼm love drunk sick

I had a mustang did a solid buck thirty
Wore cowboy boots and them old blue jeans
I picked a ﬁght with the whole steel union
That night we got her up to one thirty three
Now I’m riding in your bright pink beetle
Holdin’ your hand for the whole town to see
I couldn’t tell you what just happened
Someone tell be what just happened

Cause now Iʼm openin’ doors
And pullin’ back chairs
Listenin’ to Elton John as someone
Cuts my hair
I through a way the bottle
And I hardly get a dip
Yeah my buddies all right
Iʼm love drunk sick

I gave it all up never looked back
Yeah you’re my woman your my only good half

I couldn’t tell you what just happened
Hell Iʼll admit it I know what happened

Cause now Iʼm driving that mini van
Watching Teletubbies
My heart sinks every time they say daddy
I threw away the bottle and I threw away the dip
My old man was right
Iʼm love drunk sick
I’m love drunk sick
It’s somthin’ Iʼll admit
Yeah Iʼm love drunk sick

Summertime American Girl

She was lookin’ sweet she was lookin’ ﬁne
She looked at me and asked for the time
And I said why go for a ride
She said I
Worked hard and long all week
I can’t stand no more on my feet so
We should go for a drive
I looked at her and I said alright
We waited for the clock to tick ﬁve
And we went on for a ride

We hit LA, New York
Nashville and Chicago, Portland
Made our way down to San Antone
Saint Paul, Detroit
Key West oh boy
And headed north up to Buffalo
With blue skies the top down
Her hair blowing and her arms around me
Summer the best time in the world
With my American girl

We got home and I said what’s next
She looked at me put my hands on her hips and said
Why go inside
We both laughed and then kissed
Switched seats while I took a rest
We went on for one more ride

Break it down now
Flip ﬂops tank tops cut off jeans and my shirt off
The feeling so hot
A quick swim a soft kiss it don’t get no better than this no
Summer the best time in the world

In LA, New York
Nashville and Chicago, Portland
Soaking up the sun all summer long
Saint Paul, Detroit
Key West oh boy
Everyone between come on sing along
With blue skies the top down
Her hair blowing and her arms around me
Summer the best time in the world
With my American girl

With my American girl

Thumbs Up To The Drunk

Well durring the week sheʼs just a girl named Reta
But sheʼs had ﬁve to many margaritas
As she grabs a guy and pulls him tight
And pushes her bra to another size

Thumbs up to the drunk
Thumbs up to the drunk
Thumbs up to the one who wakes up tomorrow morning
Saying lord what have I done?
Thumbs up to the drunk
Thumbs up to the drunk

He punches in all week
But he just punched out
Heʼs yelling out loud and getting down
Asking girls to dance and begging em please
As the whole bar laughs and we all sing

Thumbs up to the drunk
Thumbs up to the drunk
Thumbs up to the one who wakes up tomorrow morning
Saying lord what have I done?
Thumbs up to the drunk
Thumbs up to the drunk

Well she donʼt really care and she donʼt really mind
Just an every day person trying to have a good time
Thumbs up to the drunk
Thumbs up to the drunk
I said he donʼt really care and he donʼt really mind
Just an every day person trying to have a good time
Thumbs up to the drunk
Thumbs up to the drunk

Now its 2 am and we just donʼt care
Weʼre feeling good and weʼve had are share
The tender closed our tabs and said have a good time
Please oh please donʼt drink and drive

Thumbs up to the drunks
Thumbs up to the drunks
Thumbs up to the ones who wakes up tomorrow morning
Saying lord what have I done?
Thumbs up to the drunks
Thumbs up to the drunks

Do The Dip

We were just kids out back by the crick
When rob pulled it out and he cracked that lid
Looked up at us and said want some of this
We looked at each other and we thought about it

Peer pressures stronger than our wits those days
Threw one in walked around in a haze
Our faces got hot and our stomachs got sick
Thats the story of our very ﬁrst dip

Hey everybody do the dip
Man that Skoal or that Cope or that wintergreen Grizz
Hey everybody do the dip
Do the dip

We’re ﬁve years older but it really donʼt show
Thereʼs cans on the counter and spitters on the ﬂoor
My best white shirt is covered in spit
One of these days I swear Iʼll quit

Hey everybody do the dip
Man that Skoal or that Cope or that wintergreen Grizz
Hey everybody do the dip
Do the dip

We do it at work or behind are girls back
Or when weʼre out hunting in our high deer stand
Gotta couple more lines but I really gotta spit
So ladies donʼt bitch about the sound of this

Everybody now
Hey everybody do the dip
Man that Skoal or that Cope or that wintergreen Grizz
Hey everybody do the dip
Do the dip

Now the surgeon general says we might lose our teeth
From packing that wad down deep in our cheek
Iʼll tell ya man that donʼt bother me
Cause there’s just somthin’ about that nicotine

Hey everybody do the dip
Man that Skoal or that Cope or that wintergreen Grizz
Hey everybody do the dip
Do the dip
One more time

Hey everybody do the dip
Man that Skoal or that Cope or that wintergreen Grizz
Hey everybody do the dip
Do the dip
