Kick A Little

Little Texas Kick A Little Lyrics
1.Kick A Little

(porter howell/dwayne o'brien/brady seals)
(track 1 - time 3:42)

My daddy always a gentle man
Never the kind to ever force his hand
He would always be the last one to raise his voice
If anybody ever put us down
Well you can bet that he would stand his ground
Then he would tell me son sometimes you got no choice

You've got to kick at little and cause a stir
Sometimes you got to make some noise to be heard
If anybody ever tries to hold you back
Yeah you got to kick a little and be tough
You got to let 'em know you've had enough
Remember that unless you want to finish last
You've got to kick a little

Some people judge you by the way you look
They see you once and say you ain't no good
Feels like they're never goona take you for who you are
That's when you have to stand up and be strong
And go the extra mile to prove 'em all wrong
Just remember when they push you way too far

You've got to kick at little and cause a stir
Sometimes you got to make some noise to be heard
If anybody ever tries to hold you back
Yeah you got to kick a little and be tough
You got to let 'em know you've had enough
Remember that unless you want to finish last
You've got to kick a little

You've got to kick at little and cause a stir
Sometimes you got to make some noise to be heard
If anybody ever tries to hold you back
Yeah you got to kick a little and be tough
You got to let 'em know you've had enough
Remember that unless you want to finish last
You've got to kick a little


2.I'd Hold On To Her

(porter howell/dwayne o'brien/brady seals)
(track 2 - time 3:04)

Guess i had my chance
My one shot at true romance
Only a fool would let it slip through his hands
So take it from the one
Who dreams about the way things were
If i were you i'd hold on to her

I've known her long enough
I've seen her eyes when she's in love
And i can tell that you're all that she's thinkin' of
So take it from the one
Who dreams about the way things were
If i were you i'd hold onto her

Now she's just beautiful words
On a page i have turned
And i'm longing to hold her
And tryin' to get over a bridge that i shouln't have burned
If i were you i'd hold onto her

So just treat her right
Keep her safe and warm at night
Give her your love and you'll have the love of your life
Just take it from the one
Who dreams about the way things were
If i were you i'd hold on to her
If i were you i'd hold on


3.Amy's Back In Austin

(brady seals/stephen allen davis)
(track 3 - time 4:36)

We left texas on a windy night
In a beat-up chevy van
We loaded it up with our innocent dreams
And all the love we had
We didn't know then how hard it was
Livin' on our own
I'd find her cryin' late at night
Talkin' to the folks back home
I wonder what went wrong
And where is she now i'd love to know

I bet amy's back in austin
Workin' at the lazona rosa cafe
I remember the night we lost it
And the day she went away
Was it the angry words or did she miss her momma
I don't know but it don't feel right
I bet amy's back in austin
And i'm missin' her tonight

Workin' ten hours in a west coast sun
Can make the days so long
And watchin' the moon crashin' into the ocean
Alone sure gets old
I remember how sweet it was
Where is she now i need to know

I bet amy's back in austin
Workin' at the lazona rosa cafe
I remember the night we lost it
And the day she went away
Was it the angry words or did she miss her momma
I don't know but it don't feel right
I bet amy's back in austin
And i'm missin' her tonight

Could this desert wind
Carry me back again
With my heart in my hand
Baby, baby i'm missin' you

Was it the angry words or did she miss her momma
I don't know but it don't feel right
I bet amy's back in austin
And i'm missin' her missin' her tonight

Oh i bet amy's back in austin
I bet amy's back in austin
I bet amy's back in austin
I bet amy's back in austin
I bet amy's back in austin
I bet amy's back in austin


4.Southern Grace

(porter howell/brady seals/stewart harris)
(track 4 - time 5:42)

First time i felt the magic of her kiss
Was under a carolina moon
Sweet southern style
Tender but a little wild
For me no other love will ever do

Her voice is like the whisper
Of a warm wind through the pines
Her smile can reach the soul of any man
Her heart is strong, her love is true
And her touch is soft as lace
There ain't nothing like a woman with southern grace

You should see the way she walks into a room
It's almost like her feet don't touch the floor
But when the chips are down
Her feet are firmly on the ground
I could never ask for any more

Her voice is like the whisper
Of a warm wind through the pines
Her smile can reach the soul of any man
Her heart is strong, her love is true
And her touch is soft as lace
There ain't nothing like a woman with southern grace

She's got me fallin' in her eyes again tonight
Lost in lovin' arms as the world goes by

Her voice is like the whisper
Of a warm wind through the pines
Her smile can reach the soul of any man
Her heart is strong, her love is true
And her touch is soft as lace
There ain't nothing like a woman

There ain't nothing like a woman
No there ain't nothing like my woman
Southern grace


5.She's Cool

(brady seals/pat mclaughlin)
(track 5 - time 3:09)

I'm here to tell you it might sound strange
She's on a different groove
Her state of mind is subject to change
She's got an attitude

She's cool
Ain't no doubt about it
She's cool
Gotta shout about it
She's cool
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

She never walks she knows how to fly
You got to take my word
It's amazing why would i lie
Just like a mockingbird

She's cool
Saying it again
She's cool
Something in the wind
She's cool
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

She won't stay the night
She won't give in
She's gonna do what's right
Oh, she's so cool

She's cool
Hangin' on the wire
She's cool
Dancin' in a fire
She's cool
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah


6.Your Days Are Numbered

(porter howell/dwayne o'brien)
(track 6 - time 3:29)

She cries and tells me she needs your love
And that's she's not giving up so easily
She tries to hold on to promises
I can't help but wish she was holdin' on to me

Your days with her are numbered
You're running out of time
She's been cryin' on my shoulder
And it won't be long 'til she's mine

So leave - leave her alone again
She knows where you've been she's not blind
They say that misery loves company
An one day she'll come to me and she won't cry

Your days with her are numbered
You're running out of time
She's been cryin' on my shoulder
And it won't be long 'til she's mine

Now i learn how to love her
As you drive her away
So i'll just dry her eyes and count the days
Until she's mine to stay

Your days with her are numbered
And it won't be long 'til she's mine
No it won't be long 'til she's mine


7.Inside

(porter howell/brady seals/ralph murray)
(track 7 - time 3:25)

Down a winding gravel road
There's an old country church
A stranger who just passes by
Will never know it's worth
But you can walk in any sunday
And it'll open up your eyes
So much love is in there waiting
But you have to look inside

A man out on the street knows more
Than we will ever learn
About how cold the world can be
And how our backs can turn
You can walk right up and ask him
What went wrong with his life
But you'll never know the answer
Until you look inside

Inside all of us
There's a good no one sees
Outside we may not show it
But it can bring us to our knees
When we realize what's been missin'
Has been there all the time
We have never seen it
'cause we've never looked inside

Sometimes i may seem distant
Like i'm not really there
You see a wall around me
And you think that i don't care
But my love for you runs deeper
Than words can describe
My heart is always open
Just take a look inside

Inside all of us
There's good no one sees
Outside we may not show it
But it can bring us to our knees
When we realize what's been missin'
Has been there all the time
We have never seen it
'cause we've never looked inside

We will never see it
Until we look inside


8.A Night I'll Never Remember

(porter howell/brady seals/stephen allen davis)
(track 8 - time 3:40)

I've been sittin' at home
All alone
Feeling sorry for myself
Since my baby's been gone
Now it's an everyday thing
But tonight it's gonna change
I've got to get out
Lord it's been way to long

I need a night i'll never remember
To take this load off of me
Put some living back in my life
Get out in the bright lights
Shake her memory free
If i have to spend my last two dollars
I'm gonna get where i want to be
I spent the whole day trying to forget her
I need a night i'll never remember

I'm gonna call my friends
I'm getting out again
Let everybody know
I'm still alive
We're gonna dance all night
Just like old times
I might miss her in the morning
But tonight i'm gonna let it ride

I need a night i'll never remember
To take this load off of me
Put some living back in my life
Get out in the bright lights
Shake her memory free
If i have to spend my last two dollars
I'm gonna get where i want to be
I spent the whole day trying to forget her
I need a night i'll never remember

I'm goin' to turn it up pour it on drag it out
Go till i forget about the way things were
Only one thing that can stop me now
I hope i don't run into her

If i have to spend my last two dollars
I'm gonna get where i want to be
I spent the whole day trying to forget her
I need a night i'll never remember
Yeah, i spent the whole day trying to forget her
I need a night i'll never remember


9.Hit Country Song

(del gray/porter howell/dwayne o'brien/duane propes/tim
rushlow/brady seals)
(track 9 - time 3:01)

Babies and puppies and high school football games
Veterans and factories and fresh fields of hay
Grandma and grandpa just rockin' along
I am a hit country song

Rifles, gunracks and old pick-up trucks
Winos and hobos that ran out of luck
A cafe on main street that's been there so long
I am a hit country song

A jukebox and a barstool and old faded love
Mama and papa, and the good lord above

Radios and rodeos, horses and trains
The old west, the homeless, neon and rain
Cheaters and lovers and bein' alone
I am a hit country song

A jukebox and a barstool and old faded love
Mama and papa, and the good lord above
A good dog and a good cause
And a good love gone wrong
I am a hit country song
I am a hit country song


10.Redneck Like Me

(jay booker)
(track 10 - time 4:00)

Gimme a river and a cypress tree
A day of good weather, and i will be
As happy as a little green frog in the rain
Gimme a shellcracker on the line
Deep fried potatoes, and a homemade wine
And a woman to work it off later and cry my name
It don't take much, it don't take much
It don't take much to please
A redneck like me

Gimme a truck with four good tires
A cheap have-a-tampa, and my desires
Will not exceed the limits of my means
I don't need no porsche car
No pumped-up music or a whacked-out bar
No ghost-white chicky, dressed up like a bad, black dream
It don't take much, it don't take much
It don't take much to please
A redneck like me

I have seen it all in my life
Running up and down the road in overdrive
But now the time has come to take it easy
It don't take much, it don't take much
It don't take much to please
A redneck like me
A redneck like me
A redneck like me
