Tuesday Night
02:57

Sometimes I start drinkin', to remember why I stopped drinkin' in the first place
cause tonight I've been thinkin' and you know it always leaves me in a bad place
When everybody looks like a girl I used to know
and everywhere ends up another place I shouldn't go
And I don't wanna spend the night in jail
cause I'll just feel sad uhhh-huhhhh
and I don't have no one to bring me bail
it's another TUESDAY NIGHT and I'm alone
I'm so glad I made it through my twenties before everyone took pictures on a cell phone
'cause trips and falls I've had plenty
and I don't need to be reminded when I get home
Got a row of empty bottles that are filled up with regret
and I'm staring at a busted hand and I make another bet

Desert Rose

Now here we are, pour another round for the boys
cause the good times they seem to go by so fast
it's hard to find a song, or a line to believe
cause there's nothing anymore that's built to last
But you're shining like a star in this smokey little bar
everybody hangs on...every word you say
Like a flower in the sand, you slip right through my hand
Desert rose don't ever go away
You went for a smoke and I went out to check my phone
but the light of the moon sure hits you in a different way
now I'm in a world of trouble, cause I don't wanna go home
and if you pour me another drink I think I'll stay

Come on tell me a story about bar room glory

and everybody's got to get through the day
Got no money in the bank, got no gas in the tank

Livin the dream--yeah we're in for some nasty weather
livin the dream--aww but things are gonna get better
livin the dream--tell me bout Saturday night tell me everything'll be alright
yeah we're just livin the dream
Yeah we're acting out loud, laughing like clowns
it might be raining but not on me
yeah we're singin along getting all the words wrong
a little out of tune but that's alright
Got no money in the bank got no gas in the tank
yeah I'd say we're just livin the dream
Can ya tell me...can ya tell me uh huh
tell me bout Saturday night

Not the Road
04:22

It's not the road telling me I'm old
when I wake up in the morning with the night beating outta my soul
maybe I don't know which way to go
but I can turn this engine over and tonight I'm makin it roll
Gonna keep on runnin, keep on runnin
leave the light on another day
gonna keep on trying til everythings coming my way
Won't drag me down, won't leave me low
it's not the road, it's not the road
It's not the road telling me I hurt
it's not the money or the miles and it damn sure isn't the work
got my boots on the ground and I'm kickin up dirt
with the wind against my back and I'm holdin on for all that I'm worth
Gonna keep on runnin, keep on runnin
keep my mind on another day
gonna keep on tryin til everythings coming my way
Won't drag me down, won't leave me low
it's not the road, it's not the road

Doin the Best I Can
03:16
|

|
I get up three- thirty for work
Five days a week and I don't complain
Jumpin in and out of the truck
That's what I do I just deal with the pain
As a kid I watched my Dad go to work
That's where I get my blue collar mentality
Work is where the money's at and I dont call out and I'm doin the best I can
Just doin the best I can
I got this girl at home I made her my wife and I love her so
She's got a pair of chocolate chip eyes and a great big smile that lights up my life
She has some good days some bad, I just want to make her very comfortable
She's my soul - mate my rainbow, my friend
She's the reason I get up and I'm doin the best I can
Just doin the best I can
But some weeks are tough , we have to stretch the money for other stuff
Im trying hard to keep my head above water but it feels like I'm walking in quicksand
I see the silver lining and I'm trying hard just to get ahead
But it's not to bad , I go out playing and I'm doin the best I can
Just doin the best I can

In Between Crashes
03:54
|

|
well I'm goin out to save my soul tonight
leavin broken pieces on the ground
keep it in the outside lane but I got my eye on you
one step to the edge and I don't look down
cause I'm standin on the roof just tonight as far as I can see
just because it smells like fire doesn't mean it's me
lean in a little closer and tell me where the cash it
ahhhhh--IN BETWEEN CRASHES
yeah the lights went out and we came up for air
sendin postcards to the bottom of the world
it's a party or a gunfight now but I can't tell for certain
and I'm pretty sure it's all about the girl
who's standin on the roof tonight just as far as I can see
just because it smells like fire doesn't mean it's me
lean in a little closer and tell me where the cash is
ahhhh-IN BETWEEN CRASHES
you know I never saw those movies you were in
but I'm watchin your face move like that and all I hear is told ya baby, told ya baby

Waitin on a Train
02:53
|
|||
|
All the girls in a crowded room and pretty soon they all look like you
up and down the stairs we climb for the things we did and the things we're gonna do
Every day in the up and down of the things I know and the things I can't explain
Waitin on the rush of love but some times
I'm just waitin on a train
I see you shine on the brighter side and it gives me hope for another day
walkin down on the summer sky and I really like it all happening that way
Another time and I'm up all night, just to see you smile and I'm comin down again
Waitin on the rush of love but sometimes
I'm just waitin on a train
