From the morning through the day
And on through the night
Like the sting or the burning
Of this slowly turning night
I ache now just to hold you
And make you feel my love
If only the wanting was enough
I may never live this feeling down
That’s the one sure thing
Better lost in love
Than never tried at all
I have found in this life
There are two ways you can fall
Though I wish I could start it over
But wishing don’t mean much
If only the wanting was enough
I may never live this feeling down
That’s the one sure thing I’ve found
Though I wish I could start it over
But wishing don’t mean much
If only the wanting was enough
I may never live this feeling down
That’s the one sure thing I’ve found
I may never live this feeling down
I can’t want you anymore
If you’re gonna be a cowboy, be an Eastwood
And if you’re gonna ride off out into the sunset
Just be cool and don’t look back
If you’re gonna be a fighter, be a Rocky
Take one on the chin, get up again
And don’t quit 'til he’s layin' there on the mat
It’s zero to sixty in 2.3, if you’re havin' one, then I’ll take two for me
Burn that rubber like the General Lee
Burn the strings like Jimmy, cash like Denny, and a fat one like Willie
Take that corner like you’re number three
No black and white checkered flag tonight
We’re gonna party like we don’t need sleep
Anybody wanna shoot whiskey?
Line 'em up and knock 'em all down
If you wanna go and drink it with me
We’re gonna do it like Cooter Brown, get down
Now, if you wanna be a gangster, get you a guitar
And start telling it like it is with nothin' but
The tough love, cold beer, three chord truth
And that’s truth
I’m talkin' mean what you say, baby, say what you mean
It’s all or nothin', ain’t no in-between
Burn that rubber like the General Lee
Burn the strings like Jimmy, cash like Denny, and a fat one like Willie
Take that corner like you’re number three
No black and white checkered flag tonight
We’re gonna party like we don’t need sleep
Anybody wanna shoot whiskey?
Line 'em up and knock 'em all down
If you wanna go and drink it with me
We’re gonna do it like Cooter Brown, get down
Anybody wanna shoot whiskey?
Anybody wanna shoot whiskey?
You’re damn right, holler if you wanna do it with me
Holler if you wanna do it with me
Burn that rubber like the General Lee
Burn the strings like Jimmy, cash like Denny, and a fat one like Willie
Take that corner like you’re number three
No black and white checkered flag tonight
We’re gonna party like we don’t need sleep
Anybody wanna shoot whiskey?
Line 'em up and knock 'em all down
If you wanna go and drink it with me
We’re gonna do it like Cooter Brown, get down
I’ve seen pick up lines and dive bar strangers slow dance
I’ve seen happy hour 2 for ones turn to one night stands
I’ve seen neon rebounds
And late-night drunk dials
I’ve seen that Cinderella fairytale go up in cigarette smoke
I’ve seen two hearts bet it all and still end up broke
The real thing won’t be easy
Yeah, might take a while
But I want that all in, fallin'
Keep the fire burning like the first time feeling
No matter what if I’m gonna love
I’m gonna love somebody like that
Kinda heart open arms
Says forever and will never ever take it back
If I’m gonna love
I’m gonna love somebody like that
I still remember mama walking down the living room stairs
And daddy saying with a smile that’s my girl right there
They had their share of ups and downs
And I saw the best, and the worst, and the work and the worth it
To get to that that all in, fallin'
Keep the fire burning like the first time feeling
No matter what if I’m gonna love
I’m gonna love somebody like that
Kinda heart open arms
Says forever and will never ever take it back
If I’m gonna love
I’m gonna love somebody like that
I’ve had some real close calls
A couple diamond ring thoughts
And enough midnight tears to know what love’s not
I want that all in, fallin'
Keep the fire burning like the first time feeling
No matter what if I’m gonna love
I’m gonna love somebody like that
Kinda heart open arms
Says forever and will never ever take it back
If I’m gonna love
I’m gonna love somebody like that
Somebody like that
Mmm, somebody like that
Love somebody like that
She grew up in the city in a little subdivision
Her daddy wore a tie, mama never fried a chicken
Ballet, straight-As, most likely to succeed
They bought her a car after graduation
Sent her down South for some higher education
Put her on the fast track to a law degree
Now shes coming home to visit
Holding the hand of a wild-eyed boy
With a farmers tan
Shes riding in the middle of his pickup truck
Blaring Charlie Daniels, yelling, Turn it up!
They raised her up a lady but theres one thing
They couldnt avoid
Ladies love country boys
You know mamas and daddies want better for their daughters
Hope theyll settle down with a doctor or a lawyer
And their uptown, ball gown, hand-me-down royalty
They never understand why their princess falls
For some camouflage britches and a southern-boy-drawl
Or why shes riding in the middle of a pickup truck
Blaring Hank Jr., yelling, Turn it up!
They raised her up a lady but theres one thing
They couldnt avoid
Ladies love country boys
You can train em, you can try to teach em
Right from wrong but its still gonna turn em on
And they go riding in the middle of a pickup truck
Blaring Lynyrd Skynyrd, yelling, Turn it up!
You can raise her up a lady but theres one thing
You just cant avoid
Ladies love country boys
They love us country boys
Oh, the dead don’t die
Any more than you or I
They’re just ghosts inside a dream
Of a life that we don’t own
They walk around sometimes
Never payin' any mind
To the silly lives we lead
Or the reaping we’ve all sown
There’s a cup of coffee waiting on every corner
Someday we’re gonna wake up and find the corner’s gone
But the dead will still be walking 'round this ol' world alone
Oh, well after life is over the afterlife goes on
There’ll be old friends walking 'round
In a somewhat-familiar town
That you saw once when you looked up from your phone
Nobody bothers saying «hi»
And you can save all your goodbyes
Stop trying to pretend that we’re all not alone
And the streets look so empty in the morning
There’ll be no one out at night for the lights to shine down on
But the dead’ll still be walking 'round in this old world alone
Oh, well after life is over the afterlife goes on
Hearts break when loved ones journey on
At the thought that they’re now forever gone
So we tell ourselves they’re all still around us all the time
Gone but not forgotten, just memories left behind
But the dead’ll still be walking 'round in this old world alone
Oh, well after life is over the afterlife goes on
Oh, well after life is over the afterlife goes on
There’s a long black train comin' down the line,
Feeding off the souls that are lost and cryin'.
Rails of sin, only evil remains.
Watch out, brother, for that long black train.
Look to the heaven’s, you can look to the sky.
You can find redemption staring back into your eyes.
There is protection and there’s peace the same:
Burnin' your ticket for that long black train.
'Cause there’s victory in the Lord, I say.
Victory in the Lord.
Cling to the Father and his Holy name,
And don’t go ridin' on that long black train.
There’s an engineer on that long black train,
Makin' you wonder if the ride is worth the pain.
He’s just a-waitin' on your heart to say:
«Let me ride on that long black train.»
But you know there’s victory in the Lord, I say.
Victory in the Lord.
Cling to the Father and his Holy name,
And don’t go ridin' on that long black train.
Well, I can hear the whistle from a mile away.
It sounds so good but I must stay away.
That train is a beauty makin' everybody stare,
But its only destination is the middle of nowhere.
But you know there’s victory in the Lord, I say.
Victory in the Lord.
Cling to the Father and his Holy name,
And don’t go ridin' on that long black train.
I said cling to the Father and his Holy name,
And don’t go ridin' on that long black train.
Yeah, watch out brother for that long black train.
That devil’s drivin' that long black train.

When you feel your world shaking
When you feel your faith fading
When you feel like love is taking, way too long
Baby, hold on to me
Tighter than your sweetest memory, of you and me
A place to lay your troubles down
That’s what I’ll be
Baby, hold on to me, on to me
Life can weigh you down like a stone
It can bend you, break you
Leave you skin and bones
It’s a long winding road
You don’t have to walk it alone
Baby, hold on to me
Tighter than your sweetest memory, of you and me
When you’re looking for an open door
But it seems so out of reach
Baby, hold on to me, on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
A place to lay your troubles down
That’s what I’ll be
Baby, hold on to me
Tighter than your sweetest memory, of you and me
When you’re looking for an open door
But it seems so out of reach
Baby, hold on to me, on to me
Hold on to me, on to me
