. . .


(Drew Womack/Craig Wiseman)

She's got every quality
From A all the way to Z
It's easy to see she's the perfect girl
She's got every single thing
That makes up my wildest dreams
Sometimes I still can't quite believe she's holdin me cause

She got it all
My heart, my soul, my wishes
All of my love, my hugs, my kisses
Everything that means anything at all
All of my life I've spent a hopin'
I could give someone such devotion
Every sweet memory I can recall
She got it all

You know that I admit
That someone to love like this
Only existed in my prayers
Until I saw her face
I knew I'd found the place
Where I could keep my every faith eternally 'cause

She got it all 
My heart, my soul, my wishes
All of my love, my hugs, my kisses
Everything that means anything at all
All of my life I've spent a hopin'
I could give someone such devotion
Every sweet memory I can recall
She got it all

All of my life I've spent a hopin'
I could give someone such devotion
Every sweet memory I can recall

All of my heart, my soul, my wishes
All of my love, my hugs, my kisses
Everything sweet memory I can recall
She got it all

She's got it all

(Kenny Chesney/Buddy Brock/Donny Kees)

Nothing left, no regrets
No hard feelings wish you all the best
No blame, no shame
Just time to say it's over I guess
We both agree it's the right thing
The only thing left to do
You win, I win, we lose

Sometimes love don't work out
No matter how hard you try
Lord knows we didn't start out to say goodbye
If it's a win-win situation
Then why am I feelin' so blue
You win, I win, we lose

You take yours, I'll take mine
We'll leave nothing but the memories behind
Of a love, and a dream
That just somehow faded with time
You say you're goin' your way
I'm goin' somewhere too
You win, I win, we lose

Sometimes love don't work out
No matter how hard you try
Lord knows we didn't start out to say goodbye
If it's a win-win situation
Then why am I feelin' so blue
You win, I win, we lose

If it's a win-win situation
Then why am I feelin' so blue
You win, I win, we lose

If you win, and I win, we lose
We lose

(Roger Brown/Adam Hughes)

If you see her down at a local bar
Showin' all the signs of a lonely heart
Don't you be concerned
There ain't nothin' wrong
It's not her fault
She gets that way when I'm gone

If she's on the floor for a dance or two
Don't mean she's lookin' for a rendevous
She'll only be in his arms
'Til the end of the song
There's no harm done
She gets that way when I'm gone

She gets that way but I understand
I know in her heart that I'm her only man
And I can't stand to think of her home all alone

So I really don't mind if she paints the town red
What we feel inside doesn't have to be said
It's a matter of trust
And I know our love is strong
That's why I don't worry none
She gets that way when I'm gone

She gets a little restless but I don't mind
'Cause a woman like her
Surely deserves to have herself a real good time

So I really don't mind if she paints the town red
What we feel inside doesn't have to be said
It's a matter of trust
And I know our love is strong
That's why I don't worry none
She gets that way when I'm gone

No it's not her fault
She gets that way when I'm gone

No there's no harm done
She gets that way when I'm gone

. . .


(Mark Germino/Casey Beathard)

I will not be the one
Who turns his back and runs
When things get rocky down the line
And I will not be the one
Holdin' the smokin' gun
If our love don't stand the test of time

I'll love you forever
I will be your man
Beside you always
I will stand

I didn't say "I do"
To take control of you
I have no chains to hold you down
If you'll let me spread my wings
You'll get the best of me
Deep in your heart is where I'm bound

I will not forsake you
I will take your hand
Beside you always
I will stand 

No matter what happens
This feeling will stay
Till the day that I die
You'll fill up the heart of my soul
That I'll take to the other side

And you'll be the only one
When all is said and done
I'll keep you close to me I swear
If ever you are down
No need to look around
Just close your eyes and I'll be there

I'll love you forever
I will be your man
Beside you always
I will stand

. . .


(Shaye Smith/Mark Alan Springer)

Well I ain't had nothin' to drink
I knew that's probably what you'd think
If I'd drop by this time of night
Remember way back when
I promised you I'd drop in
At one of those meetings down at the "Y"

They started talkin' about steps you take
Mistakes you make the hearts you break
And the price you pay
I almost walked away

You could hear a pin drop
When this old man
Stood up and said I'm gonna say it again
Like I do every week
For those who don't know me

It's the simple things in life
Like the kids at home and a lovin' wife
That you miss the most, when you lose control
And everything you love starts to disappear
The devil takes your hand and says no fear
Have another shot, just one more beer
Yeah I've been there
That's why I'm here

This old boy stood up in the isle
Said he'd been livin' a life of denial
Then he cried, as he talked about wasted years
I couldn't believe what I heard
It was my life word for word
And all of the sudden, it was clear

It's the simple things in life
Like the kids at home and a lovin' wife
That you miss the most, when you lose control
And everything you love starts to disappear
The devil takes your hand and says no fear
Have another shot, just one more beer
Yeah I've been there
That's why I'm here

I know for us it may be too late
But it would mean the world to me
If you were there when I stand to say

It's the simple things in life
Like the kids at home and a lovin' wife
That you miss the most, when you lose control
And everything you love starts to disappear
The devil takes your hand and says no fear
Have another shot, just one more beer
Yeah I've been there
That's why I'm here

OOH, I've been there
That's why I'm here

(Tony Joe White)

Well I was thinkin' 'bout parking the other night
We was out on a back road
Me and my lady was just gettin' right
All systems on overload
Radio blasting in the front seat
Turnin' out the music fine
We were snuggled up in the back seat
Makin' up for lost time

Steamy windows
Zero visiblity
Steamy windows
Comin' from the body heat

You can wine and dine a lady all night
With good intent
But there's something about a rendezvous on a back road
That gets mighty intense

Steamy windows
Ain't nobody can see
Steamy windows
Comin' from the body heat

There's a sound outside the front door
And I know it's just the wind
But it makes us wanna snuggle just a little bit closer
And it starts all over again

Steamy windows
Zero visiblity
Steamy windows
Comin' from the body heat

Steamy windows
Zero visiblity
Steamy windows
Comin' from the body heat
Steamy windows...

Steamy windows
Comin' from the body heat

Ain't nobody can see...

(Featuring George Jones and Tracy Lawrence)
(Michael Huffman/Woody Mullis/Mike Geiger)

On a hillside in Hazzard
Sets a new double-wide
God's little acre
Your paradise

A poor boy found heaven
With a good country girl
He had all he wanted
She was his whole world

But working the coal mine
Can wear a man down
He started spending
Too much time in town

He found temptation
Fell under it's spell
And Hillbilly Heaven
Went to Honky Tonk Hell

From Hillbilly Heaven
To Honky Tonk Hell
From a warm home fire burning
To a cold, cheap motel
And an angel is crying
'Cause her good man fell
From Hillbilly Heaven
To Honky Tonk Hell

Somewhere in Hazzard
On a dark, dead-end street
Where whiskey and heartache
And old memories meet

He looks for salvation
In a bottle each night
And just goes on livin'
Though he's lost his life

Now there's a job in the coal mine
That needs to be filled
And a heartache in Hazzard
That won't ever heal

He had it all
Now it's all for sale
And Hillbilly Heaven's
Gone to Honky Tonk Hell
From Hillbilly Heaven
To Honky Tonk Hell
From a warm home fire burning
To a cold, cheap motel
And an angel is crying
'Cause her good man fell
From Hillbilly Heaven
To Honky Tonk Hell

He's gone from Hillbilly Heaven
To Honky Tonk Hell

(Kenny Chesney/Dean Dillon)

Not a day goes by that I don't tell her
How beautiful she is
How kind and caring, I'm always swearing
She's the reason that I live

I make it a point to point out every good thing that she does
How she has everything I need
And I can't get enough

Well I always tell her I love her
And how lost I'd be without her
And God knows I mean every word
I always tell her I love her
But she always says it first

Not a night goes by that I don't tell her
I'm a lucky man
Pull her close and let her know
How proud of her I am
And I'm so into her I swear
It tears me inside out
And I make sure she sees that she's what
This old boy's about

Well I always tell her I love her
And how lost I'd be without her
And God knows I mean every word
I always tell her I love her
But she always says it first

She always says it first


. . .


(Kenny Chesney/Buddy Brock/Donny Kees)

She comes in every morning at nine and sits down at her desk
Smiles and says hello to everybody and tries to do her best
To act like nothing's wrong and nothing's missin' in her life
But her eyes tell a story
That her smile can't disguise

She's got that needin' somebody, wantin' somebody who
Will treat her like somebody for once in her life
She's lonely for love
Is that asking too much
For someone to treat her right
She's got that lonely, needin' lovin', wantin' somebody look in her eyes

Sometimes I wanna walk on over and tell her I can help
'Cause I know losing a love is tough
I've been there myself
You still feel the pain long after all the tears have dried
And it's so hard to cover up
The hurt you feel inside

She's got that needin' somebody, wantin' somebody who
Will treat her like somebody for once in her life
She's lonely for love
Is that asking too much
For someone to treat her right
She's got that lonely, needin' lovin', wantin' somebody look in her eyes

Well I wish I could hold her right now
And take her in my arms and show her
That love can still be found

She's got that needin' somebody, wantin' somebody who
Will treat her like somebody for once in her life
She's lonely for love
Is that asking too much
For someone to treat her right
She's got that lonely, needin' lovin', wantin' somebody look in her eyes

She's got that lonely, needin' lovin', wantin' somebody look in her eyes

Somebody look in her eyes
Lonely, needin' lovin', wantin' somebody look in her eyes


. . .


(Dean Dillon/Royce Porter)

Girl, don't you know it's all I can do
To keep my hands off of you
Anytime you're around
And when the stars come out at night
I dream of holdin' you tight
Everytime I lay down
It feels so good to me to have you this bad
The only other thing I wish I had was

A chance
A chance
To tell you how I feel about you
How it feels to live without a chance
A chance
To tell you I'll love you forever
Knowing that I'll never have a chance

Sometimes reality hurts
And you wonder if life's worth living at all
Knowing no matter how much you care
You'll never have a prayer
Of having what you want
At least I've been close enough I could taste
Beauty at it's best but never a trace of

A chance
A chance
To tell you how I feel about you
How it feels to live without a chance
A chance
To tell you I'll love you forever
Knowing that I'll never have a chance

A chance
A chance
To tell you I'll love you forever
Knowing that I'll never have
The chance


. . .


(Mark Alan Springer/Nettie Musick)

There's so many things
I didn't say
And even though
It may be too late
I want you to know
I still love you so
Every car I meet
Looks like your car
Every movie I see
You play the leading part
You're on my mind
Can't leave you behind

When I close my eyes
You're all I see
In the dark of night
You're in my dreams
Throughout the day
You're easy to find
You're always there
When I close my eyes

In my mind I know
You're far away
But here in my heart
Nothing has changed
I'm still holdin' you
Like I used to
On a busy street
In a crowded room
Wherever I go
It's just me and you
Together again
Girl it never ends

When I close my eyes
You're all I see
In the dark of night
You're in my dreams
Throughout the day
You're easy to find
You're always there
When I close my eyes

You're always there
When I close my eyes
