Some Girls Do

She turned up her nose as she walked by my cadillac
From the corner of my eye I saw you and you laughed
You were sittin' on the swing on your fron porch
Paintin' your nails like you were bored
And you yelled "She was sure impressed with you"

Chorus:
Well I ain't first class
But I ain't white trash
I'm wild and a little crazy too
Some girls don't like boys like me
Aww but some girls do

I yelled and asked if you would like a ride
When we pulled out of your yard I balled a tire
You was laughing at me, I was doing James Dean
You was the prettiest girl I'd ever seen
When you rolled your eyes and twirled my pink fur dice

Chorus

Well good ole' boys don't get no breaks
And rich boys think they got what it takes
But there's someone for each of us they say

Chorus x2

I said some girls do
You know some girls do
Like boys like me
You know some girls do

Thank God for You

Well I've been called a self-made man
Girl don't you believe it's true
I know exactly how lucky I am
When I'm gettin' this close to you
It's high time I'm giving some praise
To those that got me where I am today

Chorus
I got to thank momma for the cookin'
Daddy for the whuppin'
The devil for the trouble that I get into
I got to give credit where credit is due
I thank the bank for the money
Thank God for you

A strong heart and a willing hand
That's the secret to my success
A good woman... I try to be a good man
A good job Lord I know I've been blessed
I'm just a part of a greater plan
It doesn't matter which part I am

Chorus

I got to thank momma for the teachin'
Daddy for the preachin'
The devil for the trouble that I get into
I got to give credit where credit is due
I thank the bank for the money
Thank God for you

Momma, Daddy, the devil
Yeah I got to give credit where credit is due
I thank the bank for the money
Thank God for you

I thank momma
I thank daddy
The devil
I got to give credit where credit is due
I thank the bank for the money
Thank God for you

All These Years

She likes adventure with security
And more than one man can provide
She planned adventure feeling sure that he
Would not be home 'till after five
He turned on the lights and turned them off again
And said the one thing he could say

All these years
Where have I been
Well I've been down the rode to work and home again
And I'm still here
Untill I'm gone
Don't you rub it in too hard that I've been wrong
All these years

She said, "You're not the man you used to be"
He said, "Neither is this guy"
She said, "There's some things you refuse to see
But I guess sometimes so do I"
She made no excuse why she was lying there
She said the one thing she could say

All these years
What have I done
I made your supper and your daughter and your son
Still I'm here
And still confused
But I can finally see how much I stand to lose
All these years

I'm still here
And so confused
But I can finally see how much I stand to lose
All these years

Dirt Road

Daddy worked hard for his dollar
He said some folks don't, but that's o.k.
They won't know which road to follow
Because an easy street might lead you astray

Chorus:
I'll take the dirt road, it's all I know
I've been a'walking it for years
It's gone where I need to go
It ain't easy, it ain't supposed to be
So I'll take my time
And life won't pass me by
'Cause it's right there to find, on the dirt road

I have lived life in the fast lane
You gotta watch your back and look both ways
When it's said and done the time we have is borrowed
You better make real sure you're headed the right way

Chorus x2

On the dirt road

This Time

Sittin' on the front porch nothing but time
Missed you so bad I'm about to go blind
I've got the window busted and the door kicked in
From the last time we said never again, but....

Chorus:
This time I'm gonna see you coming
Ain't gonna be surprised
Yeah this time I'm gonna know what hit me
Right between the eyes
Just one time I want to think it over
Before we speak our minds
I know we can make a go this time

It's hard and heavy Lord day and night
That's the way we love and that's the way we fight
We can't stay together can't be alone
We can go for good but we don't stay gone, and....

Chorus

Yeah....
 
Chorus

Yeah I know we can make a go this time
Yeah this time
