1.Whta A Beautiful Day

Day 1 I stumbled through "Hello" on 5th Avenue
Day 2 We grabbed a bite to eat and talked all afternoon
We caught a movie on Day 14
And Day 67 she said "I love you" to me

Oh what a feeling
What a wonderful emotion
Yeah what a life
Counting my blessings and knowing
We had our up's and down's all along the way
She had a chance to leave but chose to stay
What a beautiful day

What a beautiful day
Day 116 I asked her what she was doing for the rest of my life
Day 189 Oh I almost lost that girl to my foolish pride
She said "I do" on Day 482
And gave me a son on Day 761

Oh what a feeling
What a wonderful emotion
Yeah what a life
Counting my blessings and knowing
We had our up's and down's all along the way
She had a chance to leave but chose to stay
What a beautiful day

Day 18,253
Well honey that's 50 years
Yeah here's to you and me

Oh what a feeling
What a wonderful emotion
Yeah what a life
Counting my blessings and knowing
We had our up's and down's all along the way
She had a chance to leave but chose to stay
What a beautiful day

Day 1 I thank God I said "Hello" on 5th Avenue


2.Chicks Dig It

Hey y'all watch this!

Daddy's belt, mamas drapes
Standin' tall on the backyard shed
Lookin' cool in my superman cape
I told the neighbourhood girls
Said hey y'all, watch this
My fate was a broken arm
And my reward a one day kiss
When daddy asked me why I did it
I made him laugh out loud when I told him
Cause the chicks dig it

Scars heal... glory fades
And all we're left with are the memories made, oh yeah
Pain hurts, but only for a minute
Yeah life is short so go on and live it
Cause the chicks dig it

Oh yeah
Mmmm

Black top road, learner permit
Thought I was Earnhardt
Drivin' fast, but I didn't see the ditch
Took out a mailbox, then a fence, then a barn
The police came and called my father
But I met the farmer's daughter
And when the judge asked me why I did it
He threw the book at me when I told him
Cause the chicks dig it

Scars heal... glory fades
And all we're left with are the memories made, oh yeah
Pain hurts, but only for a minute
Life is short so go on and live it
Cause the chicks dig it

Oh yeah
Ohh, oh

Just throw caution to the wind my friend
And then sit back and watch your life begin, cause

Scars heal... glory fades
And all we're left with are the memories made
Yeah pain hurts, but only for a minute
Yeah, life's short so go on and live it
Cause the chicks dig it

Scars heal... glory fades
And all we're left with are the memories made
Pain hurts, but only for a minute
Yeah life is short so go on and live it
It don't matter if you lose or ifyou win it
Hey the chicks dig it
Oh yeah
Chicks dig it
Mmm
The chicks dig it
Ah, hey, aw yeah
The chicks dig it

I got this scar when I was three years old showing off for the
girl next door
on my tricycle
And the on over my eye, well I got that back in '82 jumpin' off
the train
tressele bridge
But I got the girl, hah, oh
The chicks dig it!


3.Look What I Found

For so long I searched in desperation
For one love that would always be true
And I came close but there were always complications
I finally decided there was nothing I could do
So I gave up and I let go
And as soon as I did wouldn't you know

Just look what I found when I wasn't lookin'
Look what I found when I was just bein' me
I turned around and love was mine for the takin'
Look what I found when she found me

Now there's a lot of lonely people out there waiting
And there's a lot of lonely people searchin' to
But if you've got too many expectations
You might miss the one who's right in front of you
No tellin' when no tellin' why
She'll say hello and you'll know
You'll never say goodbye

Just look what I found when I wasn't lookin'
Look what I found when I was just bein' me
I turned around and love was mine for the takin'
Look what I found when she found me

And every single day I'm still surprised
When I turn around and look into her eyes
I'm like a kid who won a prize

Look what I found
Just look at what I found

Look what I found when I wasn't lookin'
Look what I found when I was just bein' me
I turned around and love was mine for the takin'
Look what I found when she found me


4.I Love It When She Does That

She's got a way of making me feel strong
A style and grace that's all her own
And she's got a way of makin' me feel like a man
Everytime that she takes my hand
The clouds roll back, all my trouble's disappear
Everytime that she draws me near, oh

She's like a cool drink of water
Everytime she touches my skin
Like a warm ray of sunshine
When she whispers that she loves me
And she let's me in, Lord
She looks at me and I wind up on my knees
She takes my heart and don't give it back
Yeah, I love it when she does that

She's got a smile that makes men weak
Yeah brother that's what happened to me
And she's got a voice that moves me like a song
And I could listen to it all night long
Yeah she ain't perfect, and she don't pretend to be
And everything that's wrong with her
Is perfect for me

She's like a cool drink of water
Everytime she touches my skin
Like a warm ray of sunshine
When she whispers that she loves me
And she let's me in, Lord
She looks at me and I wind up on my knees
She takes my heart and don't give it back
Yeah, I love it when she does that

Oh!

And like the stars at night
Oh, that girl's my guiding light
And I'll stay by her side
For the rest of my life

And take a cool drink of water
Everytime she touches my skin
Like a warm ray of sunshine
When she whispers that she loves me
And she let's me in, Lord
She looks at me and I wind up on my knees
She takes my heart and don't give it back, Lord
Yeah, I love it when she does that

Oh!
Hey
She's like a cool drink of water, yeah
She's like a warm ray of sunshine


5.Night On The Country

Summertime drivin' fast down an old back road
Feelin' fine you've got Skynard on the radio
The moon is bright me and my baby gonna break new ground
On a blanket in a field of green yeah that crickets sing a song
to me
Yeah it goes

(Wow, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
How about a night on the country
(Wow, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
It beats a night on the town
(Wow, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Give me a night on the country
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause those city lights bring me down, yeah

Fire flys they burn better than candle light
Old bottled wine down in my hollow sings a lyllabye
You and me well that's just enough company
So baby listen to the night time breeze
You can hear it singin' through the trees

(Wow, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
How about a night on the country
(Wow, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
It beats a night on the town
(Wow, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Give me a night on the country
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause those city lights bring me down

Yeah baby listen to the night time breeze
You can hear it singin' through the the trees
It goes

(Wow, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
How about a night on the country
(Wow, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
It beats a night on the town
(Wow, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Give me a night on the country
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause those city lights bring me down
Give me a night on the country
I said a night on the country
A night on the country
Beats a night on the town, wow
The city lights bring me down


6.I'd Be Lying

(VERSE 1)
If I told you that I was wrong
and wanted you to come back home,
I'd be lying.
And if I said that we could work it out
and you shouldn't have any doubts,
I'd be lying.
And if I got down on my knees
in front of God above
and swore before the angels
I'd give you my love.

(CHORUS)
I'd be lying next to you tonight
holding on with my whole life.
Right back where I belong.
Looking deep into your eyes
Man enough to realize
that honey, I was wrong.
If I could swallow my pride
and put myself in your shoes
and tell you that I understand
why you feel the way you do
then baby, I'd be lying...
I'd be lying next to you.

(VERSE 2)
And if I told you that I loved you
and I put no one else above you,
I'd be lying.
And if I said you're the one for me
and I never set you free,
I'd be lying.
And if I somehow found the strength
to knock on your front door
and tell you face to face
I won't hurt you anymore.

(CHORUS)
I'd be lying next to you tonight.
Holding on with my whole life.
Right back where I belong.
Looking deep into your eyes
Man enough to realize
that honey, I was wrong.
If I could swallow my pride
and put myself in your shoes
and tell you that I understand
why you feel the way you do.
Then baby, I'd be lying...
I'd be lying next to you.

If I could swallow my pride
and put myself in your shoes
and tell you that I understand
why you feel the way you do.
Then baby, I'd be lying...
I'd be lying next to you.

Next to you...
If I told you I was wrong...
If I said that we could work it out...
If I got down on my knees...
Oh baby, I'd be lying...


7.Everything

What is it about you that drives me crazy?
What is it about you that drives me wild?
What is it that gets my heart a racin'?
Well i've been thinkin' about it
and I've finally put my finger on it!

Chorus
It's everything you do like what you do when you're with me
It's everything you say and how you say it baby
Your kiss, your touch, the way that you love
guess what i'm tryin' to say
it's everything

What is is about you that makes me giddy?
What is it about you that makes me weak?
What is it that makes me feel to damn silly?
Make a list, well girl i've tried it
but there ain't no way to quantify it

It's everything you do like what you do when you're with me
It's everything you say and how you say it baby
your body, your mind, the child that's inside
guess what i'm tryin' to say
it's everything


8.It Takes Two

SOMETIMES YOU MAKE ME SO CRAZY I WANNA TURN
AND GO
THEN YOU DRIVE ME WILD AND IT MAKES ME WANT
TO STAY
AND SOMETIMES IT FEELS LIKE I'M WALKING DOWN A
ROCKY ROAD
JUST TO FALL IN YOUR ARMS AT THE END OF THE DAY

YOU AIN'T PERFECT, BUT YOUR PERFECT FOR A MAN
LIKE ME
AND I KNOW THAT I'M NOT THE MAN THAT I'M
SUPPOSED TO BE

(CHORUS) BUT IT'S GONNA TAKE FAITH
IT'S GONNA TAKE TRUST
IT'S GONNA TAKE EVERYTHING WE'VE GOT
EVEN WHEN WE KNOW IT WON'T BE ENOUGH
IT'S GONNA TAKE HOPE
WE EVEN NEED A LITTLE LUCK
AND IF ANYBODY TELLS US WE CAN MAKE IT ON OUR OWN
IT AIN'T TRUE
OH 'CAUSE BABY IT TAKES TWO

YEAH SOMETIMES MY WORK AND THE WORLD GET THE
BEST OF ME
THEN I COME HOME AND TRY TO GIVE YOU WHAT'S LEFT
OF ME
AND SOMETIMES YOU WONDER IF I'M EVEN LISTENING
AND I HATE HOW IT HURTS YOU WHEN I FORGET THE
LITTLE THINGS

I'M NOT PERFECT, BUT FOR YOU I'LL DO THE BEST I CAN
'CAUSE WITHOUT YOU I'LL NEVER BE MORE THAN JUST
ANOTHER LONELY MAN

(REPEAT CHORUS)

I DON'T WANNA WALK ALONE NOW BABY
I KNOW I CAN'T MAKE IT ON MY OWN BABY
EVEN THOUGH SOMETIMES YOU MAKE ME SO CRAZY
I KNOW TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE IT

(REPEAT CHORUS)


9.Growin' Love

SUNSHINE, AND THE RAIN FALLS DOWN
THE COLD WINDS BLOW
AND THE HEAT CRACKS THE GROUND
BUT DOWN A DIRT ROAD OUT IN CHICKASAW COUNTY
THE ONLY THING I NOTICE IS WHEN YOUR ARMS AREN'T
AROUND ME
'CAUSE IT'S

(CHORUS) YOU AND ME AND FIFTEEN ACRES
FIELD OF DREAMS FOR THE LOVE WE'RE MAKIN'
WE GOT THE SEED TO SOW
WE'RE JUST WAITIN' ON THE CROPS TO GROW
DAY BY DAY IT JUST GETS SWEETER
PLANTIN' ROOTS THAT JUST GROW DEEPER
TAKIN' OUR OWN SWEET TIME
'TIL IT FALLS RIGHT OFF THE VINE
AND WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM UP ABOVE, OH
WE'RE NOT GROWIN' OLD, NO WE'RE GROWIN' LOVE

THE WORLD TURNS, AND SEASONS CHANGE
AND PEOPLE GROW
OH AND PEOPLE CHANGE
BUT DOWN MY DIRT ROAD, MY GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER
MY LITTLE PIECE OF HEARTLAND
ONLY HEAVEN COULD BE SWEETER

(REPEAT CHORUS TWICE


10.Just Love Me

I'LL NEVER BE ANYBODY'S HERO
OR THE LEGEND OF A STORY, OR A SAINT THAT'S BOUND
FOR GLORY, NO
AND I'LL NEVER KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO SWIM IN
MONEY
OR HOW IT FEELS NOT TO HAVE TO GO TO WORK ON
MONDAY
I'M A SIMPLE MAN, AND THAT'S OK
BUT EVEN A SIMPLE MAN WANTS TO FEEL THIS WAY

(CHORUS) LIKE THE KING OF HIS CASTLE, LIKE THE
LEADER OF THE PACK
LIKE A MAN THAT IF YOU LEFT HIM, YOU'D JUST HAVE
TO HAVE HIM BACK
LIKE A ROCK THAT YOU WOULD LEAN ON WHEN YOUR
WORLD GETS TOO ROUGH
LIKE A MAN THAT YOU WOULD STAND BESIDE WHEN HE'S
NOT SO TOUGH
BUT EVEN IF THAT'S NOT THE MAN YOU SEE
THEN JUST LOVE ME
JUST LOVE ME

I'LL NEVER WRITE A SONG THAT LASTS FOREVER
OR A BOOK FOR ALL THE AGES, BUT I'M NOT FULL OF
EMPTY PAGES, NO
'CAUSE I GOT A SOUL, AND I USE IT FOR YEARNIN'
WITH A HEART THAT SKIPS A BEAT FOR YOU AND A
FIRE THAT KEEPS ON BURNIN'
I'M A SIMPLE MAN, YEAH THAT'S OK
BUT EVEN A SIMPLE MAN WANTS TO FEEL THIS WAY

(REPEAT CHORUS)

OH, I'M A SIMPLE MAN, AND THAT'S OK
BUT EVEN A SIMPLE MAN WANTS TO BE SWEPT AWAY,
AND FEEL

(REPEAT CHORUS)


11.Look At What I've Done

I saw it in her eyes when I was sayin' goodbye
That girl, she ain't gonna be alright
'Cause I could tell that she'd be goin' through a livin' hell
And I, I wouldn't be there by her side
And Lord I felt so bad as I sat and watched her cry
Thinkin' I was movin' on and she was barely gettin' by

Look at what I've done to her
Look at how I made her feel
I gave back her heart the broken part
She got the raw end of the deal
And look at what it's done to me
You gotta know it tears me up
I gave it everything I had and Lord
It just wasn't enough
Hurtin' her like this seems so wrong
Yeah look at what I've done to her
Now she's alone

I saw her out last night and she was havin' a good time
That girl, it looks like she's doin' fine
But then I saw a man walk up and take her by the hand
And I, oh God I almost died
And then it hit me she didn't really need me
I just sat there for a while until I finally smiled

Yeah look at what I've done to her
Look at how I made her feel
She's found somebody new
And look who took the time to heal
And look at what it's done to me
Gotta know it tears me up
To have walked away from the love we made
And just leave it in a cloud of dust
And now it's got me thinkin' maybe I was wrong
After all the things I've done to her
Now she's strong

And I walked up and said hello
She said it's good to see ya
But hey I gotta go

And look at what I've done to her
Look how I made her feel
She's standin' tall she's got it all
Got the world at her heels
And look at what it's done to me
Yeah look at how it makes me hurt
If I could go back nowI swear somehow
I'd find a way to make it work
Ain't life funny now I'm the one alone
Yeah look at what I've done to me
She's gone
