For The First Time lyrics - Darius Rucker
You say you never danced to a dashboard singin' R.E.M. under summer stars
Never leaned back on a jet black Chevy, blowing smoke rings in the dark
You don't want to be a rumor, girl, and I feel just the same
Yeah, I know that you don't know me well but we can make that change
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Yeah, let yourself go, follow that feeling
Maybe something new is what you're needing
Like a real life, let your hair down, feel alive
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Say you never drank from the bottle of some two dollar wine, run barefoot through the mud
Never had the right kiss stolen from your lips, while you watched the sun come up
Well, I know your friends are watching and they probably disapprove
But give me just half a chance, girl, I'm daring you
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Yeah, let yourself go, follow that feeling
Maybe something new is what you're needing
Like a real life, let your hair down, feel alive
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Now the way you're looking says you're living
I hope I ain't reading wrong
Cause the way you're shining I think you're thinking
It's been way too long
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Yeah yeah, let yourself go, come on follow that feeling
Maybe something new is what you're needing
Like a real life, let your hair down, feel alive, alive
When was the last time oh you did something for the first time, girl?
Come on, baby
When was the last time yeah you did something for the first time?
Never leaned back on a jet black Chevy, blowing smoke rings in the dark
You don't want to be a rumor, girl, and I feel just the same
Yeah, I know that you don't know me well but we can make that change
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Yeah, let yourself go, follow that feeling
Maybe something new is what you're needing
Like a real life, let your hair down, feel alive
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Say you never drank from the bottle of some two dollar wine, run barefoot through the mud
Never had the right kiss stolen from your lips, while you watched the sun come up
Well, I know your friends are watching and they probably disapprove
But give me just half a chance, girl, I'm daring you
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Yeah, let yourself go, follow that feeling
Maybe something new is what you're needing
Like a real life, let your hair down, feel alive
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Now the way you're looking says you're living
I hope I ain't reading wrong
Cause the way you're shining I think you're thinking
It's been way too long
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
Yeah yeah, let yourself go, come on follow that feeling
Maybe something new is what you're needing
Like a real life, let your hair down, feel alive, alive
When was the last time oh you did something for the first time, girl?
Come on, baby
When was the last time yeah you did something for the first time?
Bring It On lyrics - Darius Rucker
Bring your wild, bring your innocence
Bring that smile when you bite your lip
Bring that two-glass tipsy kiss
That stayed just a little too long
Baby, bring on your little short fuse
Your "can you carry my high heel shoes?"
Your little small town attitude
Makes me feel right at home
Bring it on, bring it on
Bring the fire, bring the storm
All your love like a flood
Raining down on me
Bring that laugh, bring those stars
Bring your jagged little heart
All those pieces of you
I ain't scared to love you
Baby bring it on
Baby bring it on
Come on with your heart on your sleeve
That makeup that you don't need
That angel that you don't see
When you look in the mirror
Bring your future, bring your past
Bring your "scared to fall too fast"
All those perfect imperfections
Bring that girl I gotta have
Bring it on, bring it on
Bring the fire, bring the storm
All your love like a flood
Raining down on me
Bring that laugh, bring those stars
Bring your jagged little heart
All those pieces of you
I ain't scared to love you
Baby bring it on
Gotta love them back, go ahead just fall
Everything you have, girl, I want it all
Put your hand in mine, let me hold your heart
Baby let me see everything you are
Baby bring it on, bring it on
Bring the fire, bring the storm
All your love like a flood
Raining down on me
Bring that laugh, bring those stars
Bring your jagged little heart
All those pieces of you
I ain't scared to love you
Baby bring it on
Oh (baby bring it on)
Bring that smile when you bite your lip
Bring that two-glass tipsy kiss
Bring it on, bring it on, bring it on
Baby bring on your little short fuse
Your small town attitude
Bring it on, bring it on, bring it on
Bring it on, bring it on
Bring that smile when you bite your lip
Bring that two-glass tipsy kiss
That stayed just a little too long
Baby, bring on your little short fuse
Your "can you carry my high heel shoes?"
Your little small town attitude
Makes me feel right at home
Bring it on, bring it on
Bring the fire, bring the storm
All your love like a flood
Raining down on me
Bring that laugh, bring those stars
Bring your jagged little heart
All those pieces of you
I ain't scared to love you
Baby bring it on
Baby bring it on
Come on with your heart on your sleeve
That makeup that you don't need
That angel that you don't see
When you look in the mirror
Bring your future, bring your past
Bring your "scared to fall too fast"
All those perfect imperfections
Bring that girl I gotta have
Bring it on, bring it on
Bring the fire, bring the storm
All your love like a flood
Raining down on me
Bring that laugh, bring those stars
Bring your jagged little heart
All those pieces of you
I ain't scared to love you
Baby bring it on
Gotta love them back, go ahead just fall
Everything you have, girl, I want it all
Put your hand in mine, let me hold your heart
Baby let me see everything you are
Baby bring it on, bring it on
Bring the fire, bring the storm

Baby bring on your little short fuse
Your small town attitude
Bring it on, bring it on, bring it on
Bring it on, bring it on
Life's Too Short lyrics - Darius Rucker
Mmm that breeze feels good, don't it?
Feet up on the cooler
Them tunes pouring out of that sliding rear window
Laugh to the beat of that tape deck radio
Mmm it's a heaven on earth moment
Got a good thing going
Round and round like the wheels of this night
It's a singing along kiss, close your eyes
I don't like this living, I love it
Sweet magnolia blue skies up above it
I don't call Carolina just a place I visit
I call Carolina home
I don't like drinking beer, I love it
On the back porch swinging with my honey
Life's too short just to like it so you better get to loving
This living before it's gone
Life's too short
Better get to living if the beer's ice cold
You better get to sipping if the song's in the air
Get you out a lighter if the party's rocking
You pull an all-nighter cause life's too short
Mmm that six string's strumming, ain't it?
This scene's all God painted
I'm soaking you in while you're soaking it in
It's like a movie baby, ain't it? Oh don't waste it
I don't like this living, I love it
Sweet magnolia blue skies up above it
I don't call Carolina just a place I visit
I call Carolina home
I don't like drinking beer, I love it
On the back porch swinging with my honey
Life's too short just to like it so you better get to loving
This living before it's gone
Life's too short
Better get to living if the beer's ice cold
You better get to sipping if the song's in the air
Get you out a lighter if the party's rocking
You pull an all-nighter cause life's too short
Oh
You better get to pouring
Oh
Cause life's too short now
I don't like this living, I love it
Sweet magnolia blue skies up above it
I don't call Carolina just a place I visit
I call Carolina home
I don't like drinking beer, I love it
On the back porch swinging with my honey
Life's too short just to like it so you better get to loving
This living before it's gone
Life's too short
Yeah you better get to living (The beer's ice cold)
Oh you gotta get to sipping (The song's in the air)
I'm gonna get you out a lighter (The party's rocking)
Girl you gotta pull an all-nighter cause life's too short
Feet up on the cooler
Them tunes pouring out of that sliding rear window
Laugh to the beat of that tape deck radio
Mmm it's a heaven on earth moment
Got a good thing going
Round and round like the wheels of this night
It's a singing along kiss, close your eyes
I don't like this living, I love it

Girl you gotta pull an all-nighter cause life's too short
If I Told You lyrics - Darius Rucker
What if I told you about my little nothing town
The two room house where I came from
The man that I got my name from
I don't even know where he is now
What if I told you sometimes I lose my faith
I wonder why someone like you would even talk to me
What if I told you there is no fixing me
Cause everybody has already tried
Would you stay?
Would you leave?
I could wait
It'll all come out eventually
If I told you all the stupid things I've done
I've blamed on being young
But I was old enough to know I know
If I told you the mess that I can be
When there's no one there to see
Could you look the other way?
Could you love me anyway?
What if I told you I don't plan on staying here
My dreams are a million miles away
And I know your family is gonna want you to stay
You know what I don't blame 'em
So I'll say
What I don't want to
And I'll just pray
You want what I do
If I told you all the stupid things I've done
I've blamed on being young
But I was old enough to know I know
If I told you the mess that I can be
When there's no one there to see
Could you look the other way?
Could you love me anyway?
Aww, could you love me anyway?
So before we go any further here
Let a week turn into another year
There some things you probably don't wanna hear
But you have to
If I told you sometimes I get jealous
Sometimes I'm half crazy
Would you say the hell with me, the hell with me
If I told you I barely know what love is
But girl if that's what this is
I don't want to let it slip away
No, no, no
Could you love me anyway?
Please
Could you love me anyway?
Could you love me anyway? (Oooooh)
Could you love me anyway?
The two room house where I came from
The man that I got my name from
I don't even know where he is now
What if I told you sometimes I lose my faith
I wonder why someone like you would even talk to me
What if I told you there is no fixing me
Cause everybody has already tried
Would you stay?
Would you leave?
I could wait
It'll all come out eventually
If I told you all the stupid things I've done
I've blamed on being young
But I was old enough to know I know
If I told you the mess that I can be
When there's no one there to see
Could you look the other way?
Could you love me anyway?
What if I told you I don't plan on staying here
My dreams are a million miles away
And I know your family is gonna want you to stay
You know what I don't blame 'em
So I'll say
What I don't want to
And I'll just pray
You want what I do
If I told you all the stupid things I've done
I've blamed on being young
But I was old enough to know I know
If I told you the mess that I can be
When there's no one there to see
Could you look the other way?
Could you love me anyway?
Aww, could you love me anyway?

Could you love me anyway? (Oooooh)
Could you love me anyway?
Don't lyrics - Darius Rucker
If you think I could ever go a day without you
Five minutes without thinkin' about you
Don't
And if you wonder if it scares me
Thinkin' about forever with you, baby
I can tell you, baby, it don't, oh
'Cause every single mornin'
My eyes fall open on you
It's like my dreams keep goin'
On and on and on, it don't
Matter what we're doin'
As long as I'm with you, and
I can't imagine anything
I couldn't love you through the bad days
There's gonna be mistakes
But, baby, I'm here to stay
And if you think that could change
Don't
Stop makin' me late for work
Wakin' me up without sayin' a word
Ooh, don't
'Cause when you whisper in my ear
Everything I wanna hear
I know you know, I need to go
But you're the reason that I don't
'Cause every single mornin'
My eyes fall open on you
It's like my dreams keep goin'
On and on and on, it don't
Matter what we're doin'
As long as I'm with you, and
I can't imagine anything
I couldn't love you through the bad days
There's gonna be mistakes
But, baby, I'm here to stay
And if you think that could change
Don't
Oh, baby, don't
Oh, and if you ever wonder
If I regret the day I said, "I do"
Don't
'Cause every single mornin'
My eyes fall open on you
It's like my dreams keep goin'
On and on and on, it don't
Matter what we're doin'
As long as I'm with you, and
I can't imagine anything
I couldn't love you through the bad days
There's gonna be mistakes
But, baby, I'm here to stay
And if you think that could change
Don't
Baby, don't
Don't you think I don't
Oh, yeah, I know
Baby, don't
Five minutes without thinkin' about you
Don't
And if you wonder if it scares me
Thinkin' about forever with you, baby
I can tell you, baby, it don't, oh
'Cause every single mornin'
My eyes fall open on you
It's like my dreams keep goin'
On and on and on, it don't
Matter what we're doin'
As long as I'm with you, and
I can't imagine anything
I couldn't love you through the bad days
There's gonna be mistakes
But, baby, I'm here to stay
And if you think that could change
Don't
Stop makin' me late for work
Wakin' me up without sayin' a word
Ooh, don't
'Cause when you whisper in my ear
Everything I wanna hear
I know you know, I need to go
But you're the reason that I don't
'Cause every single mornin'

But, baby, I'm here to stay
And if you think that could change

And if you think that could change
Don't
Baby, don't
Don't you think I don't
Oh, yeah, I know
Baby, don't
Twenty Something lyrics - Darius Rucker
Twenty something, buying coffee you can't afford
Making love is keeping score
You're sleeping on a couch
Cause you got nothing, yeah but you don't give a damn
It's your world and they're all just living in it
Twenty something for a minute
Thirty something
You don't wait to call her back
They called you when you left
Those hangovers just hang on a little longer
Home ain't your hometown
Just cause you got twenty bucks don't mean you spend it
Thirty something for a minute
It's credit cards and college bars
Bigger houses, faster cars
Just trying to be somebody, but you end up somebody else
Friday nights out with your friends
Til a second chance's a second wind
Just one more keg then you tell yourself
Forty something
Is the new twenty five
You think time is on your side
But in a flash
Fifty something
And your daddy's in the mirror
Say you're young, but your running out of where you're spending
Sixty something in a minute
It's credit cards and college bars
Bigger houses, faster cars
Just trying to be somebody, but you end up somebody else
Friday nights out whiskey friends
Til a second chance's a second wind
Just one more keg then you tell yourself
Eighty something
Is just a number on a page
And all you know is that you don't know nothing
You still feel twenty something
Ah, you're twenty something
Twenty something
Twenty something
Making love is keeping score
You're sleeping on a couch
Cause you got nothing, yeah but you don't give a damn
It's your world and they're all just living in it
Twenty something for a minute
Thirty something
You don't wait to call her back
They called you when you left
Those hangovers just hang on a little longer
Home ain't your hometown
Just cause you got twenty bucks don't mean you spend it
Thirty something for a minute
It's credit cards and college bars
Bigger houses, faster cars
Just trying to be somebody, but you end up somebody else
Friday nights out with your friends
Til a second chance's a second wind
Just one more keg then you tell yourself
Forty something
Is the new twenty five
You think time is on your side
But in a flash
Fifty something
And your daddy's in the mirror
Say you're young, but your running out of where you're spending
Sixty something in a minute
It's credit cards and college bars
Bigger houses, faster cars
Just trying to be somebody, but you end up somebody else
Friday nights out whiskey friends
Til a second chance's a second wind
Just one more keg then you tell yourself
Eighty something

And all you know is that you don't know nothing
You still feel twenty something
Ah, you're twenty something
Twenty something
Twenty something
Straight To Hell (feat. Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan & Charles Kelley) lyrics - Darius Rucker
I grew up just west of the tracks
Holding me to hold me back
Around your door she's calling out my name
I come in at 5 AM
And she is waiting for me
She said, "Where have you been?", I said, "I was out!"
She said, "You're no good cause you're running without love"
And I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell (to Hell, woohoo)
I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell (oh and I'm gonna burn it down, baby)
The black widow and the ladies man
Met down at the laundromat
And tried to make me understand
And just then, her mother bursts in
And said, "You're the son of that bitch in the wind
Get out of my house and hit the road"
And I kept falling like a Rolling Stones' song
Cause I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell (oh straight to Hell)
I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell
The stars came out and warned me so
As I walked on down the road
Fifty bucks and a suitcase steered me clear
She took my hand as we walked into the sun
A new day's promise had just begun
We'll make it alone whether you like it or not
And I turned around and shouted "Help me momma!"
Cause I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell
Oh yeah, I'm going straight to Hell
Ooh just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell
(Oh Lord help us
Yeah I'll bring the whiskey boys
Y'all taking me with ya
Help me Jesus, help me Jesus, we all are
Oh!)
Holding me to hold me back
Around your door she's calling out my name
I come in at 5 AM
And she is waiting for me
She said, "Where have you been?", I said, "I was out!"
She said, "You're no good cause you're running without love"
And I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell (to Hell, woohoo)
I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell (oh and I'm gonna burn it down, baby)
The black widow and the ladies man
Met down at the laundromat
And tried to make me understand
And just then, her mother bursts in
And said, "You're the son of that bitch in the wind
Get out of my house and hit the road"
And I kept falling like a Rolling Stones' song
Cause I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell (oh straight to Hell)
I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell
The stars came out and warned me so
As I walked on down the road
Fifty bucks and a suitcase steered me clear
She took my hand as we walked into the sun
A new day's promise had just begun
We'll make it alone whether you like it or not
And I turned around and shouted "Help me momma!"
Cause I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell
Oh yeah, I'm going straight to Hell
Ooh just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell
(Oh Lord help us
Yeah I'll bring the whiskey boys
Y'all taking me with ya
Help me Jesus, help me Jesus, we all are
Oh!)
Count The Beers lyrics - Darius Rucker
Well the lipstick on this coffee cup
I ain't your shade of red
And the perfume on the pillow on your side of the bed
Ain't the kind you used to wear
But you said you don't love me
And she said she don't care
She likes the sad songs that play all night long
She never turns 'em off, just sings along
She likes the big screen and the home team
And walks in, as I got my tears here in my big beers
It might not be love, like our love was
But girl that's all right
'Cause she don't count the beers I drink at night
She don't make me wanna stay in bed when Monday rolls around
And she don't have that touch that sends me ten feet off the ground
Like you used to (like you used to)
Yeah believe me, man, she's something
But baby she ain't you
She likes the sad songs that play all night long
She never turns 'em off, just sings along
She likes the big screen and the home team
And walks in, as I got my tears here in my big beers
It might not be love, like our love was
But girl that's all right, yeah
'Cause she don't count the beers I drink at night
She's all that I never thought I'd find
Yeah, but she can't get you off my mind
She likes the sad songs that play all night long
She never turns 'em off, just sings along
She likes the big screen and the home team
And walks in, as I got my tears here in my big beers
It might not be love, like our love was
But girl that's all right
'Cause she don't count the beers I drink at night
Yeah...
'Cause she don't count the beers I drink at night

Another Night With You lyrics - Darius Rucker
Here comes the sunrise
Like it always does
Always puts a damper on our kind of love
Just like last night
It always ends too soon
I know it's only daylight
But I wanna spend another night with you
Can't seem to make time stand still
It always does just what it will
So baby until
I can have a talk with that old moon
Oh and talk about a daylight
So I can spend another night with you
If I found a four leaf clover, I'd tuck it away
You know that I'd save it for a rainy day
If I had a genie in a bottle to make a wish come true
I'm telling you girl right now just what I'd do
Oh I wouldn't waste a minute
I'd only wish for one more night with you
But I can't seem to make time stand still
It always does just what it will
So baby until
I can have a talk with that old moon
Oh and talk about a daylight
So I can spend another night with you
Oh I'd talk about a daylight
So I can spend another night with you
Here comes the sunrise (Here comes the sunrise)
Like it always does
Always puts a damper on our kind of love
Just like last night
It always ends too soon
I know it's only daylight
But I wanna spend another night with you
Can't seem to make time stand still
It always does just what it will
So baby until
I can have a talk with that old moon
Oh and talk about a daylight
So I can spend another night with you
If I found a four leaf clover, I'd tuck it away
You know that I'd save it for a rainy day
If I had a genie in a bottle to make a wish come true
I'm telling you girl right now just what I'd do
Oh I wouldn't waste a minute
I'd only wish for one more night with you
But I can't seem to make time stand still
It always does just what it will
So baby until
I can have a talk with that old moon
Oh and talk about a daylight
So I can spend another night with you
Oh I'd talk about a daylight
So I can spend another night with you
Here comes the sunrise (Here comes the sunrise)
Hands On Me lyrics - Darius Rucker
I know where I wanna go tonight
Been thinking about it all day
I've been waiting on your paradise
Still only you know the way
I let a world outside our window
Do whatever it's gonna do
We'll have a body and soul revival
Right here in this room
When your lips touch mine I'm born again
If I never get to heaven, hell, I've already been
Lead me to salvation, girl, I'm down on my knees
Turn the lights off, slide your jeans off and put your hands on me
Chase your settle through the secret garden
You'll be waiting for me there
I can whisper hallelujah, baby
But I don't have a prayer
And only you can save me
From the crazy that you made me
When your lips touch mine I'm born again
If I never get to heaven, hell, I've already been
Lead me to salvation, girl, I'm down on my knees
Turn the lights off, slide your jeans off and put your hands on me
And only you can save me
From the crazy that you made me
Put your hands on me
Put your hands on me
Yeah, hands on me
Put your hands on me
When your lips touch mine I'm born again
If I never get to heaven, hell, I've already been
Lead me to salvation, girl, I'm down on my knees
Turn the lights off and slide your jeans off and put your hands on me
Yeah, turn the lights off, slide your jeans off and put your hands on me
Been thinking about it all day
I've been waiting on your paradise
Still only you know the way
I let a world outside our window
Do whatever it's gonna do
We'll have a body and soul revival
Right here in this room
When your lips touch mine I'm born again
If I never get to heaven, hell, I've already been
Lead me to salvation, girl, I'm down on my knees
Turn the lights off, slide your jeans off and put your hands on me
Chase your settle through the secret garden
You'll be waiting for me there
I can whisper hallelujah, baby
But I don't have a prayer
And only you can save me
From the crazy that you made me
When your lips touch mine I'm born again
If I never get to heaven, hell, I've already been
Lead me to salvation, girl, I'm down on my knees
Turn the lights off, slide your jeans off and put your hands on me
And only you can save me
From the crazy that you made me
Put your hands on me
Put your hands on me
Yeah, hands on me
Put your hands on me
When your lips touch mine I'm born again
If I never get to heaven, hell, I've already been
Lead me to salvation, girl, I'm down on my knees
Turn the lights off and slide your jeans off and put your hands on me
Yeah, turn the lights off, slide your jeans off and put your hands on me
She lyrics - Darius Rucker
She could of been born and raised in a Kentucky blue grass town
East Carolina, South Alabama
Anywhere you might hear a screen door slam
In a doublewide or a little white house her daddy built
By a cotton, corn or a tobacco field
Green grass growing up around that Oldsmobile out in the yard
The one her Uncle Bobby took apart
Anybody's guess if and when
It'll ever get put together again
Yeah she's old black water
She's southern comfort
She's sweet magnolia sugar cane
Yeah she's every jet trail sky
There's wild horses in her eyes
And her heart you know you'd love to try and tame
She's probably got saved on a red oak Baptist back road pew
Summers in the sun at Waterloo
Whiskey bonfire buzz, yeah she's had a few
And she's just like you
Midnight singin' with the windows down
Slip string driftin' down a road she found
The kind of girl that makes your world go around
And she's old black water
She's southern comfort
She's sweet magnolia sugar cane
Yeah she's every jet trail sky
There's wild horses in her eyes
And a heart you know she'd love to try and tame
Yeah she's old black water
She's southern comfort
She's sweet magnolia sugar cane
Yeah she's every jet trail sky
There's wild horses in her eyes
And her heart you know you'd love to try and tame
On a sunset back road taillights drift away
Yeah she's old black water
She's southern comfort
She's sweet magnolia sugar cane
Yeah she's every jet trail sky
There's wild horses in her eyes
And her heart you know you'd love to try and tame

Story To Tell lyrics - Darius Rucker
I grew up in the country
Six kids in a two room shack
Soon as I learned those three chords
I had a guitar on my back
I wanted to carry a football
That dream came and went real soon
Made it through two years of college
Thank God I could carry a tune
Nah nah, yeah-eh, thank God, I could carry a tune
I've known love, I've known pain
Got a little rusty in the rain
I've been lost, I've been found
I left my mark on my little bitty town
Yeah, raised me a few good babies
Raised me a whole lotta hell
And if I ever get to heaven
I'm gonna have a story to tell, yeah
If I get there, I'm gonna have a story to tell
I drank a lot of cheap whiskey
Shut down too many bars
Low as a dog in the valley
And high as the Carolina stars
I've kissed some girls, still missed some girls
Most beautiful you've ever seen
I gave my heart to a woman
Who didn't give a damn about me
I've known love, I've known pain
Got a little rusty in the rain
I've been lost, I've been found
I left my mark on my little bitty town
Yeah, raised me a few good babies
Raised me a whole lotta hell
And if I ever get to heaven
I'm gonna have a story to tell, yeah
If I get there, I'm gonna have a story to tell
It's got some parts that'll make you laugh
And some that'll make you cry
Some pages I wish I could tear out
Well I ain't gonna tell no lie
'Cause it's a story of my life
No I can't preach or give no advice
I didn't do everything well
But man, just live while you're alive
And try to have a story to tell
I've known love, I've known pain
Got a little rusty in the rain
Yeah I've been lost, I've been found
I left my mark on my little bitty town
I raised me a few good babies
I raised me a whole lotta hell
And if I ever get to heaven
I'm gonna have a story to tell, yeah
If I get there, I'll have a real good story to tell
Nah nah, yeah-eh, I'll have a real good story to tell

Straight To Hell (Full Length Version) (feat. Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan & Charles Kelley) lyrics -Darius Rucker
I grew up just west of the tracks
Holding me to hold me back
Around your door she's calling out my name
She said "Son, won't you go outside?"
I got a man coming over tonight
The seventh one in seven days
So I go down to the parking lot
And hang around all my friends
And roam the streets till dawn breaks again
I come in at 5 AM
And she is waiting for me
She said, "Where have you been?", I said, "I was out!"
She said, "You're no good cause you're running without love"
And I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell (to Hell, woohoo)
I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell (oh and I'm gonna burn it down, baby)
The black widow and the ladies man
Met down at the laundromat
And tried to make me understand
The neighbors were all in a stir
About what they mighta heard
And running down they shouted, so it seemed
Next door a girl she lived, about the same age as me
And asked me to come upstairs for a seat
And just then, her mother bursts in
And said, "You're the son of that bitch in the wind
Get out of my house and hit the road"
And I kept falling like a Rolling Stones' song
Cause I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell (oh straight to Hell)
Yeah I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell
The stars came out and warned me so
As I walked on down the road
Fifty bucks and a suitcase steered me clear
She took my hand as we walked into the sun
A new day's promise had just begun
We'll make it alone whether you like it or not
And I turned around and shouted "Help me momma!"
Cause I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell
Oh yeah, I'm going straight to Hell
Just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell (Oh boys sing it one more time now)
I'm going straight to Hell
Ooh just like my momma said
I'm going straight to Hell
(Oh Lord help us
Yeah I'll bring the whiskey boys
Y'all taking me with ya
Help me Jesus, help me Jesus, we all are
Oh!)
Holding me to hold me back
Around your door she's calling out my name
She said "Son, won't you go outside?"
I got a man coming over tonight
The seventh one in seven days
So I go down to the parking lot
And hang around all my friends
And roam the streets till dawn breaks again

Homegrown Honey lyrics - Darius Rucker
Sitting at a bar in New York City
Everybody here looking New York pretty
But you’re the kinda girl that’s got that something
Dancing to the groove like it just ain’t nothing
They ain’t never seen nothing quite like you
Long stem legs in your cowboy boots
Throwing back whiskey straight, no water
Girl there ain’t nothing hotter
[Chorus:]
Ooh, I dig the way that you move
You shake it down to your roots
Did your momma teach you how to do that thing you do
Yeah, nothing sweeter than wild
I’ll take a sip of that smile
I’ll bet the boys at home can’t leave you alone
You little homegrown honey, honey, honey
You’re so money, money, money
You got a country road Carolina soul
Baby you’re just so homegrown
Trying to think of something cool to say
Turned around and saw you walking my way
Pulled me on the floor saying “Son it’s on”
And we were dancing all night long
To a sweet old Alabama song
[Repeat Chorus]
Ooh baby, baby, baby
You’re driving me crazy, crazy, crazy
I’m a long way away from where I’m from
But baby you feel like home
[Repeat Chorus]
You’re so money, money, money
You got a country road Carolina soul
Baby you’re just so homegrown
Everybody here looking New York pretty
But you’re the kinda girl that’s got that something
Dancing to the groove like it just ain’t nothing
They ain’t never seen nothing quite like you
Long stem legs in your cowboy boots
Throwing back whiskey straight, no water
Girl there ain’t nothing hotter
[Chorus:]
Ooh, I dig the way that you move
You shake it down to your roots
Did your momma teach you how to do that thing you do
Yeah, nothing sweeter than wild
I’ll take a sip of that smile
I’ll bet the boys at home can’t leave you alone
You little homegrown honey, honey, honey
You’re so money, money, money
You got a country road Carolina soul
Baby you’re just so homegrown
Trying to think of something cool to say
Turned around and saw you walking my way
Pulled me on the floor saying “Son it’s on”
And we were dancing all night long
To a sweet old Alabama song
[Repeat Chorus]
Ooh baby, baby, baby
You’re driving me crazy, crazy, crazy
I’m a long way away from where I’m from
But baby you feel like home
[Repeat Chorus]
You’re so money, money, money
You got a country road Carolina soul
Baby you’re just so homegrown
Good For A Good Time lyrics - Darius Rucker
I ain't ever been accused of recusing myself from a Friday night
Don't need no excuse to go out and cut loose beneath the neon light
Ain't got to twist my arm to get me off the farm
Just give me the word, I bet I beat you to the bar
I'm up for just about anything as long as it's almost legal
I can fit in with any old crowd, long as there's a party, they're my kind of people
If you're down with painting the town, I'll be around all night
You know I'm always good for a good time
I'm a pretty good guy in my nine to five, always walking the line
I'll lend a helping hand to a stranger or a friend if they need mine
You can count on me buddy, I'm free
If you've got a bead on a party in need
I'm up for just about anything as long as it's almost legal
I can fit in with any old crowd, long as there's a party, they're my kind of people
If you're down with painting the town, I'll be around all night
You know I'm always good for a good time
When it comes to a good time, you know what they say
It's never too early, it's never too late
Don't need no excuse to go out and cut loose beneath the neon light
Ain't got to twist my arm to get me off the farm
Just give me the word, I bet I beat you to the bar
I'm up for just about anything as long as it's almost legal
I can fit in with any old crowd, long as there's a party, they're my kind of people
If you're down with painting the town, I'll be around all night
You know I'm always good for a good time
I'm a pretty good guy in my nine to five, always walking the line
I'll lend a helping hand to a stranger or a friend if they need mine
You can count on me buddy, I'm free
If you've got a bead on a party in need
I'm up for just about anything as long as it's almost legal
I can fit in with any old crowd, long as there's a party, they're my kind of people
If you're down with painting the town, I'll be around all night
You know I'm always good for a good time
When it comes to a good time, you know what they say
It's never too early, it's never too late
Baby I'm Right (feat. Mallary Hope) lyrics - Darius Rucker
Heaven knows that I'm usually wrong
And you're the first one to point it out
Don't even try to act like you don't know
What it is I'm talking 'bout
You know that I'm no know-it-all
But when I first saw you I thought
This could be
The start of something beautiful
This could be
The start of something magical
The kind of thing you look for all of your life
This could be
The start of something so unreal
This could be
Finally the real deal
I guess now and then
Baby, I'm right
Don't wanna really put you right on the spot
But I love the look you're giving me
I'm no genius but I know what we've got
That special kind of chemistry
Go on and roll those hazel brown eyes
Let's see where we're going tonight
This could be
The start of something beautiful
This could be
The start of something magical
The kind of thing you look for all of your life
This could be
The start of something so unreal
This could be
Finally the real deal
I guess now and then
Baby, I'm right
Just admit it
I ain't always wrong
Me being right kinda turns you on
This could be
The start of something beautiful
This could be
The start of something magical
The kind of thing you look for all of your life
This could be
The start of something so unreal
This could be
Finally the real deal
I guess now and then
Baby, I'm right
Yeah, I guess now and then
You let me be right
And you're the first one to point it out
Don't even try to act like you don't know
What it is I'm talking 'bout
You know that I'm no know-it-all
But when I first saw you I thought
This could be
The start of something beautiful
This could be
The start of something magical
The kind of thing you look for all of your life

Southern Style lyrics - Darius Rucker
Sun kissed hair and not much makeup
High-heeled boots that lace up
Two first names that came from
Her grandmas on both sides
She ain't ever read much Faulkner
But she could've been his daughter
She grew up on Muddy Waters
Southern style
Southern style, free and easy
Southern style, warm and breezy
If you met her, man believe me
You'd want her to stay a while
Says, she don't believe in strangers
Only sinners with the savior
'Cause her mom and daddy raised her
Southern style
She's a Friday night light lover
A Billy Graham fan like her mother
She wants her daddy and both brothers
To walk her down the aisle
She likes oysters raw for dinner
A lil' Wayne and Lynyrd Skynyrd
Keeps her tan lines in the winter
Southern style
Southern style, free and easy
Southern style, warm and breezy
If you met her, man believe me
You'd want her to stay a while
Says, she don't believe in strangers
Only sinners with the savior
'Cause her mom and daddy raised her
Southern style
Southern style, free and easy
Southern style, warm and breezy
If you met her, man believe me
You'd want her to stay a while
Says, she don't believe in strangers
Only sinners with the savior
'Cause her mom and daddy raised her
Southern style
You can love her, you can hate her
But you're never going to change her
If you want her then you'll take her
Southern style
High-heeled boots that lace up
Two first names that came from
Her grandmas on both sides
She ain't ever read much Faulkner
But she could've been his daughter
She grew up on Muddy Waters
Southern style
Southern style, free and easy
Southern style, warm and breezy
If you met her, man believe me

High On Life lyrics - Darius Rucker
It's been five days since I shaved, I swear
My hair's gettin' long but I don't care
Lawn chair sitting, ain't going nowhere
A big old smile on my face
Pointin' out pictures in a cloudy sky
Craving me a piece of that pecan pie
Might lay in the grass and kill some time
Looking like I'm in a daze
But it ain't no purple haze
I ain't stoned on what you think
Just an afternoon sun that's starting to sink
I ain't drunk on nothing you can buy
Just a kiss from a woman and a look in her eye
What I'm on you don't need much
It's a little goes a long way kinda stuff
Yeah, I'm breathing, yeah, I'm feeling alright
I'm high on life
Gettin' buzzed by this bumble bee flying around
My day in the sun is my night on the town
Just me waking up is me getting down
Spinning like a tilt-a-whirl
Sitting on top of the world
I ain't stoned on what you think
Just an afternoon sun that's starting to sink
I ain't drunk on nothing you can buy
Just a kiss from a woman and a look in her eye
What I'm on you don't need much
It's a little goes a long way kinda stuff
Yeah, I'm breathing, yeah, I'm feeling alright
I'm high on life
I ain't saying that stuff is bad
But it's so low compared to the highs I have
Counting my blessings, kicking back
Sipping on sweet tea in a glass
And watching my baby laugh
Don't get much better than that
I ain't stoned on what you think
Just an afternoon sun that's starting to sink
I ain't drunk on nothing you can buy
Just a kiss from a woman and a look in her eye
What I'm on you don't need much
It's a little goes a long way kinda stuff
Yeah, I'm breathing, yeah, I'm feeling alright
I'm high on life
I'm finally believing what I'm seeing
That's why
I'm high on life
Oh, high on life
My hair's gettin' long but I don't care
Lawn chair sitting, ain't going nowhere
A big old smile on my face
Pointin' out pictures in a cloudy sky
Craving me a piece of that pecan pie
Might lay in the grass and kill some time
Looking like I'm in a daze
But it ain't no purple haze
I ain't stoned on what you think
Just an afternoon sun that's starting to sink
I ain't drunk on nothing you can buy
Just a kiss from a woman and a look in her eye
What I'm on you don't need much
It's a little goes a long way kinda stuff
Yeah, I'm breathing, yeah, I'm feeling alright
I'm high on life
Gettin' buzzed by this bumble bee flying around
My day in the sun is my night on the town
Just me waking up is me getting down
Spinning like a tilt-a-whirl
Sitting on top of the world
I ain't stoned on what you think
Just an afternoon sun that's starting to sink

That's why
I'm high on life
Oh, high on life
Perfect lyrics - Darius Rucker
You didn't see me walkin' in
You were lookin' in the mirror and
You looked perfect
Hadn't put on your makeup yet
You were sayin', how your hair's a mess
But you looked perfect
No, you don't see what I see when I look at you girl
You don't know how beautiful you are
You're never ready and you need more time
You say your jeans never fit you right
But your eyes and your shy little smile and your own kinda style
It's so perfect, perfect
I hear you singin' to the radio
Sometimes you miss a couple high notes
But it sounds perfect
And when we go out and
Everywhere's too crowded
And we just end up drivin' around
It's, oh baby, it's still perfect
Just perfect
No, you don't see what I see when I look at you girl
You don't know how beautiful you are
You're never ready and you need more time
You say your jeans never fit you right
But your eyes and your shy little smile and your own kinda style
It's so perfect, perfect
Your touch and your kiss and your skin and your lips
And your name
All the little imperfections you wish you could change
Every little everything is perfect
No, you don't see what I see when I look at you girl
You don't know how beautiful you are
You're never ready and you need more time
You say your jeans never fit you right
But your eyes and your shy little smile and your own kinda style
It's so perfect, perfect
You were lookin' in the mirror and
You looked perfect
Hadn't put on your makeup yet
You were sayin', how your hair's a mess
But you looked perfect
No, you don't see what I see when I look at you girl
You don't know how beautiful you are
You're never ready and you need more time
You say your jeans never fit you right
But your eyes and your shy little smile and your own kinda style
It's so perfect, perfect
I hear you singin' to the radio
Sometimes you miss a couple high notes
But it sounds perfect
And when we go out and
Everywhere's too crowded
And we just end up drivin' around
It's, oh baby, it's still perfect
Just perfect
No, you don't see what I see when I look at you girl
You don't know how beautiful you are
You're never ready and you need more time
You say your jeans never fit you right
But your eyes and your shy little smile and your own kinda style
It's so perfect, perfect
Your touch and your kiss and your skin and your lips
And your name
All the little imperfections you wish you could change
Every little everything is perfect
No, you don't see what I see when I look at you girl
You don't know how beautiful you are
You're never ready and you need more time
You say your jeans never fit you right
But your eyes and your shy little smile and your own kinda style
It's so perfect, perfect
You, Me & My Guitar lyrics - Darius Rucker
Tonight, let's let party people do
Whatever party people do
Just wanna be somewhere with you
Without the crowd
Tonight, let's go hit our favorite spot
Let our feet swing off that dock
This old six string's all I brought
And that's all we need
Make a list of your favorite songs
I can play and you can sing along
Don't matter if we get 'em wrong
Ain't nobody listenin' but the moon
And all the stars
Baby, we don't need no bar
All we need is this old jar
You and me and my guitar
I wanna feel
That sweet, sweet southern breeze
Blowin' through those live oak trees
Feel that grass under our feet
While we're walkin' down
I can't wait
To see the smile there on your face
When I open up that case
Yeah, tune it up and play
With the crickets keepin' time
Make a list of your favorite songs
I can play and you can sing along
Don't matter if we get 'em wrong
Ain't nobody listenin' but the moon
And all the stars
Baby, we don't need no bar
All we need is this old jar
You and me and my guitar
Girl, you know, I love to show you off
Underneath the lights downtown
But now and then, I like slippin' off
Where there ain't nobody around
But you and me
Just you and me and my guitar
And the moon and the stars and you and me, now baby
Whatever party people do
Just wanna be somewhere with you
Without the crowd
Tonight, let's go hit our favorite spot
Let our feet swing off that dock
This old six string's all I brought
And that's all we need
Make a list of your favorite songs
I can play and you can sing along
Don't matter if we get 'em wrong
Ain't nobody listenin' but the moon
And all the stars
Baby, we don't need no bar
All we need is this old jar
You and me and my guitar
I wanna feel
That sweet, sweet southern breeze
Blowin' through those live oak trees
Feel that grass under our feet
While we're walkin' down
I can't wait
To see the smile there on your face
When I open up that case
Yeah, tune it up and play
With the crickets keepin' time
Make a list of your favorite songs
I can play and you can sing along
Don't matter if we get 'em wrong
Ain't nobody listenin' but the moon
And all the stars
Baby, we don't need no bar
All we need is this old jar
You and me and my guitar
Girl, you know, I love to show you off
Underneath the lights downtown
But now and then, I like slippin' off
Where there ain't nobody around
But you and me
Just you and me and my guitar
And the moon and the stars and you and me, now baby
Low Country lyrics - Darius Rucker
Baby, all these city lights
Are losing their shine
I need a little bit a get outta here
A little slow unwind
A little salt air and a sand bar
A lawn chair and a guitar
Singing sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
All night long
All night
I wanna get high
On some low country
Where the sun meets the water
And the nights get hotter
Sounds right on the money
Let's let that tide take us for a ride
Girl, wherever it wants to
I wanna get high
On some low country with you
Down there where the warm wind blows
Through the cypress trees
You take your worries like the pennies in your pocket
And you, you throw 'em in the sea
Get a sweet buzz from your long kiss
Better than any rum hitting my lips
Singing la-la-la-la-la-la-la
All night long
All night
I wanna get high
On some low country
Where the sun meets the water
And the nights get hotter
Sounds right on the money
Let's let that tide take us for a ride
Girl, wherever it wants to
I wanna get high
On some low country with you
Ain't it funny how life can be crazy
Come on, let's get gone
'Cause the days are getting long and the nights are getting hazy
Come on, let's hold on
I wanna get high
On some low country
Where the sun meets the water
And the nights get hotter
Sounds right on the money
Let's let that tide take us for a ride
Girl, wherever it wants to
I wanna get high
On some low country with you
Low country with you, oh, yeah
Low country with you
My low country with you
Are losing their shine
I need a little bit a get outta here
A little slow unwind
A little salt air and a sand bar
A lawn chair and a guitar
Singing sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
All night long
All night
I wanna get high
On some low country
Where the sun meets the water
And the nights get hotter
Sounds right on the money
Let's let that tide take us for a ride
Girl, wherever it wants to
I wanna get high
On some low country with you
Down there where the warm wind blows
Through the cypress trees
You take your worries like the pennies in your pocket
And you, you throw 'em in the sea
Get a sweet buzz from your long kiss
Better than any rum hitting my lips
Singing la-la-la-la-la-la-la
All night long
All night
I wanna get high
On some low country
Where the sun meets the water
And the nights get hotter
Sounds right on the money
Let's let that tide take us for a ride
Girl, wherever it wants to
I wanna get high
On some low country with you
Ain't it funny how life can be crazy
Come on, let's get gone
'Cause the days are getting long and the nights are getting hazy
Come on, let's hold on
I wanna get high
On some low country
Where the sun meets the water
And the nights get hotter
Sounds right on the money
Let's let that tide take us for a ride
Girl, wherever it wants to
I wanna get high
On some low country with you
Low country with you, oh, yeah
Low country with you
My low country with you
Need You More lyrics - Darius Rucker
Kinda like eighteen wheels need a blacktop
A bad part of town needs a good cop
Kinda like a romantic night needs a sunset
Candlelight and a silhouette need the door
But I need you more
Kinda like a cup of coffee needs the a.m.
Hard times need a good friend
Kinda like a sinners prayer when hopes gone
From a midnight drunk kneeling on a jailhouse floor
I need you more
Every touch, every kiss, every time
Your lips meet mine
I need you more
Every look my way
Every second of the day that goes by
Even holding you tight in the middle of the night
You say, how much you need me
Baby, believe me
I need you more
Kinda like a country road needs an old church
Carolina needs a red dirt
Kinda like a daybreak needs a sunrise
Old dogs and rocking chairs need the porch
I need you more
Every touch, every kiss, every time
Your lips meet mine
I need you more
Every look my way
Every second of the day that goes by
Even holding you tight in the middle of the night
You say, how much you need me
Baby, believe me
I need you more
Kinda like a stormy night needs a lighthouse
Tall ships and driftwood need the shore
I need you more
Every touch, every kiss, every time
Your lips meet mine
I need you more
Every look my way
Every second of the day that goes by
Even holding you tight in the middle of the night
You say, how much you need me
Baby, believe me
I need you more
I need you more
I need you more
I need you more
A bad part of town needs a good cop
Kinda like a romantic night needs a sunset
Candlelight and a silhouette need the door
But I need you more
Kinda like a cup of coffee needs the a.m.
Hard times need a good friend
Kinda like a sinners prayer when hopes gone
From a midnight drunk kneeling on a jailhouse floor
I need you more
Every touch, every kiss, every time
Your lips meet mine
I need you more
Every look my way
Every second of the day that goes by
Even holding you tight in the middle of the night
You say, how much you need me
Baby, believe me
I need you more
Kinda like a country road needs an old church
Carolina needs a red dirt
Kinda like a daybreak needs a sunrise
Old dogs and rocking chairs need the porch
I need you more
Every touch, every kiss, every time
Your lips meet mine
I need you more
Every look my way
Every second of the day that goes by
Even holding you tight in the middle of the night
You say, how much you need me
Baby, believe me
I need you more
Kinda like a stormy night needs a lighthouse
Tall ships and driftwood need the shore
I need you more
Every touch, every kiss, every time
Your lips meet mine
I need you more
Every look my way
Every second of the day that goes by
Even holding you tight in the middle of the night
You say, how much you need me
Baby, believe me
I need you more
I need you more
I need you more
I need you more
Half Full Dixie Cup lyrics - Darius Rucker
That bucket of bolts in the driveway
It's old but it's still fast
And the weeds out in the front yard
When they're green, they look like grass
And this house we got
Well, it sure could use a couple shingles and a can of paint
But looking on the bright side
We're dry every time it rains
Yeah, I'm kicked back on the front porch
Drinking up this sunset
We ain't got a whole lot
But we got what we need
Yeah, I'm smiling 'cause I've been blessed
Sipping on the good stuff
This ain't a glass half empty thing
It's a half full Dixie cup
Kids chasing around that old dog
Being loud and dragging out toys
But you're missing out on a sweet sound
If all you hear is noise
And their mama sitting here beside me
Laughs and says, ain't it funny
Some people I know, well, they're flat broke
'Cause all they got is money
Yeah, I'm kicked back on the front porch
Drinking up this sunset
We ain't got a whole lot
But we got what we need
Yeah, I'm smiling 'cause I've been blessed
Sipping on the good stuff
This ain't a glass half empty thing
It's a half full Dixie cup
Some days I fall by the wayside
And let the devil have his way
He puts a hole in my cup
But this ain't one of those days, no
Well, I'm kicked back on the front porch
I'm drinking up this sunset
Hey, we ain't got a whole lot
But we got what we need
Yeah, I'm smiling 'cause I've been blessed
I'm sipping on the good stuff
Hey, this ain't a glass half empty thing
It's a half full Dixie cup
Yeah, I'm smiling 'cause I've been blessed
I'm sipping on the good stuff
Hey, this ain't a glass half empty thing
It's a half full Dixie cup
It's a half full Dixie cup
It's old but it's still fast
And the weeds out in the front yard
When they're green, they look like grass
And this house we got
Well, it sure could use a couple shingles and a can of paint
But looking on the bright side
We're dry every time it rains
Yeah, I'm kicked back on the front porch
Drinking up this sunset
We ain't got a whole lot
But we got what we need
Yeah, I'm smiling 'cause I've been blessed
Sipping on the good stuff
This ain't a glass half empty thing
It's a half full Dixie cup

Lighter Up lyrics - Darius Rucker
I remember that long line
Camping out there all night
Just for a chance to see that hair band
Got tickets for my first show
Didn't care about the back row
The day finally came
It was all worth the wait
Never heard nothing so loud
As the roar of the crowd
When the lights went down
And we all pulled 'em all out
Lighter up
Feel the love
Everybody swaying
Ridin' that wave
So alive
With the fire
We raised them high
And burned the night
Lighter up
Lighter up
Hit the stage with that first song
Never felt a groove so strong
Lights were so bright
We were coming alive
The words we didn't know-oh-oh
We all just said who-oh-oh
Then she grabbed my hand
We started to dance
Never seen nothing like the roar of the flames
She gave me a kiss before she gave me her name
Lighter up
Feel the love
Everybody swaying
Ridin' that wave
So alive
With the fire
We raised them high
And burned the night
Lighter up
Lighter up
And just like the show-oh-oh
We didn't take it slow-oh-oh
I bathed in her eyes
Even watched the sunrise
Lighter up
Feel the love
Everybody swaying
Ridin' that wave
So alive
With the fire
We raised them high
And burned the night
Lighter up
Lighter up
[x2]
Lighter up
Camping out there all night
Just for a chance to see that hair band
Got tickets for my first show
Didn't care about the back row
The day finally came
It was all worth the wait
Never heard nothing so loud
As the roar of the crowd
When the lights went down
And we all pulled 'em all out
Lighter up
Feel the love
Everybody swaying
Ridin' that wave
So alive
With the fire
We raised them high
And burned the night
Lighter up
Lighter up
Hit the stage with that first song
Never felt a groove so strong
Lights were so bright
We were coming alive
The words we didn't know-oh-oh
We all just said who-oh-oh
Then she grabbed my hand
We started to dance
Never seen nothing like the roar of the flames
She gave me a kiss before she gave me her name
Lighter up
Feel the love
Everybody swaying
Ridin' that wave
So alive
With the fire
We raised them high
And burned the night
Lighter up
Lighter up
And just like the show-oh-oh
We didn't take it slow-oh-oh
I bathed in her eyes
Even watched the sunrise
Lighter up
Feel the love
Everybody swaying
Ridin' that wave
So alive
With the fire
We raised them high
And burned the night
Lighter up

You Can Have Charleston lyrics - Darius Rucker
You can have Charleston
The cobblestone streets
The steeples looking down
On the Battery
The Topsails and the Clydesdales
Pulling people all around
The ocean breeze and the live oak trees
God, I'm gonna miss this town, but
You can have Charleston
I'll pack up and leave
Maybe find a spot on the West Coast
Give you lots of room to breathe
With your new life and your new love
I won't get in your way
I'll just wish you well and try like hell
To smile and walk away, from
My home, my heart
Where I was born, where I was raised
Where one day they're gonna take my body
And lay it in a grave
My soul, don't wanna go
But it's got to be this way
It's gonna break my heart to say, goodbye
But it'll kill me if I stay
You can have Charleston
It's really for the best
Girl, it's your town now
Plus I could never rest
There're too many ghosts on this old coast
Too many memories
It's where we met and we fell in love
It's where you cut me deep and made me bleed
From time to time
I might be passing through
But I promise you
That's all I'll do
You can have Charleston
I'll take these broken dreams
Load 'em in up in a suitcase
And see where it leads
Take 26 until I get
A million miles away
Try and start over
In a brand new place
The cobblestone streets
The steeples looking down
On the Battery
The Topsails and the Clydesdales
Pulling people all around
The ocean breeze and the live oak trees
God, I'm gonna miss this town, but
You can have Charleston
I'll pack up and leave
Maybe find a spot on the West Coast
Give you lots of room to breathe
With your new life and your new love
I won't get in your way
I'll just wish you well and try like hell
To smile and walk away, from
My home, my heart
Where I was born, where I was raised
Where one day they're gonna take my body
And lay it in a grave
My soul, don't wanna go
But it's got to be this way
It's gonna break my heart to say, goodbye
But it'll kill me if I stay
You can have Charleston
It's really for the best
Girl, it's your town now
Plus I could never rest
There're too many ghosts on this old coast
Too many memories
It's where we met and we fell in love
It's where you cut me deep and made me bleed
From time to time

But I promise you
That's all I'll do
You can have Charleston
I'll take these broken dreams
Load 'em in up in a suitcase
And see where it leads
Take 26 until I get
A million miles away
Try and start over
In a brand new place
So I Sang lyrics - Darius Rucker
I never was the biggest or the fastest guy
I never hit a homerun when the game was tied
I knew from an early age I wasn't going to be
A doctor or the CEO of anything
So I sang, "She Believes In Me"
And I played, "Fire On The Mountain"
'Til I made my fingers bleed
I tried to stand out from the crowd
But most times I just struck out at the plate
So I sang
I wasn't cool enough to be a ladies man
It took me forever just to hold her hand
First time we kissed, she whispered, I love you
But I wasn't brave enough to say, I loved her too
So I sang, "You Are So Beautiful To Me"
And I played every note to "Faithfully"
I loved her with everything
But I couldn't think of anything to say
So I sang
No one believed in me as much as Mom
See, she worked overtime to buy my first guitar
When the angels called her home
My sister asked if I would speak
But there were no words to say how much she meant to me
So I sang, "It Is Well With My Soul"
And I played, "I'm So Tired Of Being Alone"
'Cause those were Mama's favorite songs
And what I felt would take too long to say
So I sang
Yes, I sang
So I sang
I never hit a homerun when the game was tied
I knew from an early age I wasn't going to be
A doctor or the CEO of anything
So I sang, "She Believes In Me"
And I played, "Fire On The Mountain"
'Til I made my fingers bleed
I tried to stand out from the crowd
But most times I just struck out at the plate
So I sang
I wasn't cool enough to be a ladies man
It took me forever just to hold her hand
First time we kissed, she whispered, I love you
But I wasn't brave enough to say, I loved her too
So I sang, "You Are So Beautiful To Me"
And I played every note to "Faithfully"

Down Here lyrics - Darius Rucker
Down here where the cattails grow, down here where the kudzu grows.
The shrimps goin' in the low country boil,
radio playin' Haggard and Jones on a Saturday night, we're doin' alright,
fire up the Coleman ice down the long necks, it's goin' down out on the back deck,
everything's fine, in the southern moonlight.
It feels so good, with that cool breeze blowin' around
there ain't nothing wrong, with what's goin' on right now,
we got family, we got friends, we got ice cold beer,
I'm sure heavens nice, but tonight it ain't too bad down here.
Starlight eyes sitting at the table,
white cotton dress wrapped around an angel,
look at that smile, so beautiful without havin' to try,
she gives a little wink stars walkin' over,
hand on my hip head on my shoulder,
it ain't nothing like, her by my side.
It feels so good, with that cool breeze blowin' around,
there ain't nothing wrong, with what's goin' on right now,
we got family, we got friends, we got ice cold beer,
yeah I'm sure heavens nice, but tonight it ain't too bad down here.
Down here where the cattails grow, and the kudzu rows,
and the moon shines clear, might not be the streets of gold but it ain't too bad no.
Down here where the cattails grow, and the kudzu rows,

we got family, we got friends, we got ice cold beer,
I'm sure heavens nice, but tonight it ain't too bad, down here,
ain't too bad down here, no, cause,
we got family, we got friends, we got ice cold beer,
yeah in my heart I know heavens nice but tonight it ain't too bad down here...

It's All Over lyrics - Darius Rucker
Hear footsteps creeping and the
Clock says it's four am
Ain't gonna let it slide again
This time, this time
No more pretending that
I don't know where you're at
I can't ignore the fact
It's all over your face
The lipstick and the lies
The truth you try to hide
But you just can't, just can't fake
The feelings you don't feel
Try to hide it but it's still
All over, all over your face
Hotel's been whispering
But I wasn't listening
Like a fool i was blinded, blinded
By the alibis you gave
And all the games you played
This time you can't be saved
It's all over your face
The lipstick and the lies
The truth you try to hide
But you just can't, just can't fake
The feelings you don't feel
Try to hide it but it's still
All over, all over your face
So don't even start your pleading and crying
Cause what you're selling baby I ain't buying
It's all over your face yeah
It's all over your face
The lipstick and the lies
The truth you try to hide
But you just can't, just can't fake
These feelings you don't feel
Try to hide it but it's still
All over, all over your face
Oh yeah, oh it's all over your face
The lipstick and the lies
Lipstick and the lies
Clock says it's four am
Ain't gonna let it slide again
This time, this time
No more pretending that
I don't know where you're at
I can't ignore the fact
It's all over your face
The lipstick and the lies
The truth you try to hide
But you just can't, just can't fake
The feelings you don't feel
Try to hide it but it's still
All over, all over your face

The truth you try to hide
But you just can't, just can't fake
These feelings you don't feel
Try to hide it but it's still
All over, all over your face
Oh yeah, oh it's all over your face
The lipstick and the lies
Lipstick and the lies
I'll Be Home For Christmas lyrics - Darius Rucker
I'm dreaming tonight of a place I love
Even more than I usually do
And although I know
It's a long road back, I promise you
I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents under the tree
Christmas eve will find me
Where the love light beams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
Oh please have snow and mistletoe
And presents under the tree
Oh Christmas eve will find me
Where the love light beams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
If only in my dreams
Even more than I usually do
And although I know
It's a long road back, I promise you
I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents under the tree
Christmas eve will find me
Where the love light beams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
Oh please have snow and mistletoe
And presents under the tree
Oh Christmas eve will find me
Where the love light beams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams
If only in my dreams
White Christmas lyrics - Darius Rucker
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all
Your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops they glisten
And little children they listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
Oh I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
May your days
May your days
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all
Your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the tree tops they glisten
And little children they listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
Oh I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
May your days
May your days
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow lyrics - Darius Rucker
Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I've bought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
When we finally kiss good night
How I'll hate to go out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still goodbying
But as long as you love me so
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is just so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
When we finally kiss good night
How I'll hate to go out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still goodbying
As long as you love me so
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
Let It Snow...
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I've bought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
When we finally kiss good night
How I'll hate to go out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still goodbying
But as long as you love me so
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is just so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
When we finally kiss good night
How I'll hate to go out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still goodbying
As long as you love me so
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
Let It Snow...
Winter Wonderland lyrics - Darius Rucker
Sleigh bells ring
Are you listening
In the lane
Snow is glistening
A beautiful sight
We're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland
Gone away, is the bluebird
Here to stay, is a new bird
He sings a love song
As we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say Are you married
We'll say No Man
But you can do the job
When you're in town
Later on
We'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with Mr. Snowman
Until the other kids knock him down
When it snows
Ain't it thrilling
Though your nose is a chilling
We'll frolic and play the Eskimo way
Walking in a winter wonderland
To face unafraid
The plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
Are you listening
In the lane
Snow is glistening
A beautiful sight
We're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland
Gone away, is the bluebird
Here to stay, is a new bird
He sings a love song
As we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say Are you married
We'll say No Man
But you can do the job
When you're in town
Later on
We'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with Mr. Snowman
Until the other kids knock him down
When it snows
Ain't it thrilling
Though your nose is a chilling
We'll frolic and play the Eskimo way
Walking in a winter wonderland
To face unafraid
The plans that we've made
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
Please Come Home For Christmas lyrics - Darius Rucker
Bells will be ringing the sad, sad news
Oh what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone, I have no friends
To wish me Christmas greetings once again
Choirs will be singin' "Silent Night"
Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas by New Year's night
Friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
But this is Christmas, yes Christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the one you love
So won't you tell me you'll never more roam?
Oh Christmas and New Year's will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief or pain
Then I'll be happy, happy once again
Friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
This is Christmas, yes Christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the one you love
So won't you tell me you'll never more roam?
Oh Christmas and New Year's will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief or pain
Then I'll be happy, happy once again
Ooh, there'll be no more sorrow, no grief, no pain
And I'll be happy Christmas once again
Oh what a Christmas to have the blues
My baby's gone, I have no friends
To wish me Christmas greetings once again
Choirs will be singin' "Silent Night"
Christmas carols by candlelight
Please come home for Christmas
Please come home for Christmas
If not for Christmas by New Year's night
Friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
But this is Christmas, yes Christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the one you love
So won't you tell me you'll never more roam?
Oh Christmas and New Year's will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief or pain
Then I'll be happy, happy once again
Friends and relations send salutations
Sure as the stars shine above
This is Christmas, yes Christmas my dear
The time of year to be with the one you love
So won't you tell me you'll never more roam?
Oh Christmas and New Year's will find you home
There'll be no more sorrow, no grief or pain
Then I'll be happy, happy once again
Ooh, there'll be no more sorrow, no grief, no pain
And I'll be happy Christmas once again
What God Wants For Christmas lyrics - Darius Rucker
Old man playing Santa Claus
Blew into town with old Jack Frost
Now he's handing out candy canes and smiles for free
People scurry with their lists
Rushing around to buy those gifts that will
End up wrapped up underneath the tree
I'm sitting at this red light looking at a manger scene
Watching snowflakes kiss that baby
And it makes me think
I wonder what God wants for Christmas
Something that you can't find in a store
Maybe peace on Earth, no more empty seats in church
Might be what's on His wishlist
I wonder what God wants for Christmas
What do you give someone
Who gave His only Son
What if we believe in Him
Like He believes in us
I wonder what God wants for Christmas
What might put a smile on His face
Every Bible with no dust, the devil giving up
Might be what's on His wishlist
I wonder what God wants for Christmas
What kind of gift from you and me
More sister, more brother, more lovin' one another
Yeah I wonder, I wonder what God wants
By now we oughta know what God wants for Christmas
Blew into town with old Jack Frost
Now he's handing out candy canes and smiles for free
People scurry with their lists
Rushing around to buy those gifts that will
End up wrapped up underneath the tree
I'm sitting at this red light looking at a manger scene
Watching snowflakes kiss that baby
And it makes me think
I wonder what God wants for Christmas
Something that you can't find in a store
Maybe peace on Earth, no more empty seats in church
Might be what's on His wishlist
I wonder what God wants for Christmas
What do you give someone
Who gave His only Son
What if we believe in Him
Like He believes in us
I wonder what God wants for Christmas
What might put a smile on His face
Every Bible with no dust, the devil giving up
Might be what's on His wishlist
I wonder what God wants for Christmas
What kind of gift from you and me
More sister, more brother, more lovin' one another
Yeah I wonder, I wonder what God wants
By now we oughta know what God wants for Christmas
Baby, It's Cold Outside (feat. Sheryl Crow) lyrics - Darius Rucker
(I really can't stay) But baby it's cold outside
(I've got to go away) But baby it's cold outside
(This evening has been) Been hoping that you'd drop in
(So very nice) I'll hold your hands they're just like ice
(My mother will start to worry) Beautiful what's your hurry
(My father will be pacing the floor) Listen to the fireplace roar
(So really I'd better scurry) Beautiful please don't hurry
(Well maybe just half a drink more) Put some records on while I pour
(The neighbors might think) Baby it's bad out there
(Say what's in this drink) No cabs to be had out there
(I wish I knew how) Your eyes are like starlight now
(To break this spell) I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
(I ought to say no no no sir) Mind if I move in closer
(At least I'm gonna say that I tried) What's the sense of hurting my pride
(I really can't stay) Baby don't hold doubt
[Both:] Baby it's cold outside
(I simply must go) But baby it's cold outside
(The answer is no) But baby it's cold outside
(The welcome has been) How lucky that you dropped in
(So nice and warm) Look out the window at the storm
(My sister will be suspicious) Gosh your lips look delicious
(My brother will be there at the door) Waves upon a tropical shore
(My maiden aunt's mind is vicious) Gosh your lips are delicious
(But maybe just a cigarette more) Never such a blizzard before
(I got to get home) But baby you'd freeze out there
(Say lend me your comb) It's up to your knees out there
(You've really been grand) I thrill when you touch my hand
(But don't you see) How can you do this thing to me
(There's bound to be talk tomorrow) Think of my life long sorrow
(At least they'll be plenty implied) If you caught pneumonia and died
(I really can't stay) Get over that old doubt
[Both:] Baby it's cold outside
[Both:] Baby it's cold outside
(I really can't stay)
[Both:] Baby it's cold outside
(I've got to go away) But baby it's cold outside
(This evening has been) Been hoping that you'd drop in
(So very nice) I'll hold your hands they're just like ice

You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch lyrics -
You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch
You really are a heel
You're as cuddly as a cactus
You're as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch
You're a bad banana with a greasy black peel!
You're a monster, Mr. Grinch
Your heart's an empty hole
Your brain is full of spiders
You've got garlic in your soul, Mr. Grinch
I wouldn't touch you with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole!
You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch
You have termites in your smile
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a seasick crocodile, Mr. Grinch
Given the choice between the two of you
I'd take the seasick crocodile!
You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch
You're a nasty wasty skunk
Your heart is full of unwashed socks
Your soul is full of gunk, Mr. Grinch
The three words that best describe you are as follows, and I quote
"Stink, stank, stunk!"
You're a rotter, Mr. Grinch
You're the king of sinful sots
Your heart's a dead tomato
Splotched with moldy purple spots, Mr. Grinch
Your soul is an appalling dump heap
Overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable
Mangled up in tangled up knots!
You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch
With a nauseous super "naus"
You're a crooked dirty jockey
And you drive a crooked horse, Mr. Grinch
You're a three-decker sauerkraut
And toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce!
You really are a heel
You're as cuddly as a cactus
You're as charming as an eel, Mr. Grinch
You're a bad banana with a greasy black peel!
You're a monster, Mr. Grinch
Your heart's an empty hole
Your brain is full of spiders
You've got garlic in your soul, Mr. Grinch
I wouldn't touch you with a thirty-nine-and-a-half foot pole!
You're a vile one, Mr. Grinch
You have termites in your smile
You have all the tender sweetness
Of a seasick crocodile, Mr. Grinch
Given the choice between the two of you
I'd take the seasick crocodile!
You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch
You're a nasty wasty skunk
Your heart is full of unwashed socks
Your soul is full of gunk, Mr. Grinch
The three words that best describe you are as follows, and I quote
"Stink, stank, stunk!"
You're a rotter, Mr. Grinch
You're the king of sinful sots
Your heart's a dead tomato
Splotched with moldy purple spots, Mr. Grinch
Your soul is an appalling dump heap
Overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable
Mangled up in tangled up knots!
You nauseate me, Mr. Grinch
With a nauseous super "naus"
You're a crooked dirty jockey
And you drive a crooked horse, Mr. Grinch
You're a three-decker sauerkraut
And toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce!
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing lyrics - Darius Rucker
Hark the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled"
Joyful, all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With angelic host proclaim:
"Christ is born in Bethlehem"
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"

Offspring of a Virgin's womb
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
Hail the incarnate Deity
Pleased as man with man to dwell
Jesus, our Emmanuel
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"
Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace!
Hail the Son of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings
Ris'n with healing in His wings
Mild He lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth
Born to give them second birth
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"
"Glory to the newborn King!
Peace on earth and mercy mild

Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"
Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas lyrics - Darius Rucker
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on your troubles will be miles away
Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
They gather near to us once more
Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bow
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Through the years we all will be together and
If the fates allow, oh
Hang a shining star upon the highest bow
Oh and have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on your troubles will be miles away
Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
They gather near to us once more
Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bow
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Through the years we all will be together and
If the fates allow, oh
Hang a shining star upon the highest bow
Oh and have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Candy Cane Christmas lyrics - Darius Rucker
Tiny little boots covered in snow
Apple cider warmin' on the stove
Tinsel twinklin' everywhere
Holly hangin' on the stairs
It must be Christmas Eve
Angels sittin' high upon a tree
Watchin' over presents patiently
Milk and cookies on a plate
Santa Clause is on his way
The kids should be fast asleep
Sleigh bells are ringin' in their heads
Twistin' like little tops in their beds
Tryin' to sleep but it's no use
With hoofs tap tappin' on the roof
Peakin' out the window to see what they can see
It's a Candy Cane Christmas
Sweet as it can be
The kids will wake up awfully early
Cause they can't wait to see
If Santa made it so they can say
"Look what he brought me"
Sleigh bells are ringin' in their heads
Twistin' like little tops in their beds
Tryin' to sleep but it's no use
With hoofs tap tappin' on the roof
Peakin' out the window to see what they can see
It's a Candy Cane Christmas
Sweet as it can be
It's a Candy Cane Christmas
Sweet as it can be
Apple cider warmin' on the stove
Tinsel twinklin' everywhere
Holly hangin' on the stairs
It must be Christmas Eve
Angels sittin' high upon a tree
Watchin' over presents patiently
Milk and cookies on a plate
Santa Clause is on his way
The kids should be fast asleep
Sleigh bells are ringin' in their heads
Twistin' like little tops in their beds
Tryin' to sleep but it's no use
With hoofs tap tappin' on the roof
Peakin' out the window to see what they can see
It's a Candy Cane Christmas
Sweet as it can be
The kids will wake up awfully early
Cause they can't wait to see
If Santa made it so they can say
"Look what he brought me"
Sleigh bells are ringin' in their heads
Twistin' like little tops in their beds
Tryin' to sleep but it's no use
With hoofs tap tappin' on the roof
Peakin' out the window to see what they can see
It's a Candy Cane Christmas
Sweet as it can be
It's a Candy Cane Christmas
Sweet as it can be
True Believers lyrics - Darius Rucker
Church bells ringing on our wedding day
Climbed in that limo and rode away
Guess you'll always hear some people say,
Man, they're never gonna make it.
We settled in and we settled down
In this quiet little seaside town
You are the rock I built my world around
And life will never break it
We are one heartbeat in the darkness
We are one lasting answered prayer
We are one unbroken promise
And we are two, true believers
It wasn't easy getting here today
Sometimes you stumbled or I lost my way
But every roadblock was a chance to say;
Take my hand I'm here beside you.
We worked and made it through the toughest parts
Now every day is another chance to start
To look around and see where we are
It's where we were trying to get to
We are one heartbeat in the darkness
We are one lasting answered prayer
We are one unbroken promise
And we are two, true believers
We are one before our God in Heaven
Oh, we are one road when the going gets rough
We are one now and forever
We are one name, one life, one flame
We are one heartbeat in the darkness
We are one lasting answered prayer
We are one unbroken promise
And we are two, true believers
We are two, true believers
Climbed in that limo and rode away
Guess you'll always hear some people say,
Man, they're never gonna make it.
We settled in and we settled down
In this quiet little seaside town
You are the rock I built my world around
And life will never break it
We are one heartbeat in the darkness
We are one lasting answered prayer
We are one unbroken promise
And we are two, true believers
It wasn't easy getting here today
Sometimes you stumbled or I lost my way
But every roadblock was a chance to say;
Take my hand I'm here beside you.
We worked and made it through the toughest parts
Now every day is another chance to start
To look around and see where we are
It's where we were trying to get to
We are one heartbeat in the darkness
We are one lasting answered prayer
We are one unbroken promise
And we are two, true believers
We are one before our God in Heaven
Oh, we are one road when the going gets rough
We are one now and forever
We are one name, one life, one flame
We are one heartbeat in the darkness
We are one lasting answered prayer
We are one unbroken promise
And we are two, true believers
We are two, true believers
Miss You lyrics - Darius Rucker
Had a bottle of wine
And a perfectly fine dinner
Talked about school, work, life
And how cold it was last winter
Laid down in this big old bed
And you turned on the TV
Fell asleep without a goodnight kiss
Or even an "I Love you baby"
Oh baby
[Chorus:]
How can we go all night
And not even touch one another
How can we say we're still in love
And not be lovers
How did we get here
Where you can be right there
And I can be with you
And miss you
I remember the time
When every time you saw me you had to kiss me
Oh but lying here tonight, girl
That all just seems like ancient history
Oh what happened baby
[Repeat chorus]
Baby I still need you
Hold and touch you
Please say it's not the end
Oh baby please say we're not just friends
We can't go all night
And not even touch one another, no
Baby I'm, I'm still in love
So let's be lovers
You know it's not fair
That you can be right there
And I can't be with you
Oh, Oh and miss you
Oh baby I, I miss you darlin'
Oh I do, oh I do, layin' right next to you
I miss you girl
Oh yeah, oh baby I miss you
And a perfectly fine dinner
Talked about school, work, life
And how cold it was last winter
Laid down in this big old bed
And you turned on the TV
Fell asleep without a goodnight kiss
Or even an "I Love you baby"
Oh baby
[Chorus:]
How can we go all night
And not even touch one another
How can we say we're still in love
And not be lovers
How did we get here
Where you can be right there
And I can be with you
And miss you
I remember the time
When every time you saw me you had to kiss me
Oh but lying here tonight, girl
That all just seems like ancient history
Oh what happened baby
[Repeat chorus]
Baby I still need you
Hold and touch you
Please say it's not the end
Oh baby please say we're not just friends
We can't go all night
And not even touch one another, no
Baby I'm, I'm still in love
So let's be lovers
You know it's not fair
That you can be right there
And I can't be with you
Oh, Oh and miss you
Oh baby I, I miss you darlin'
Oh I do, oh I do, layin' right next to you
I miss you girl
Oh yeah, oh baby I miss you
Wagon Wheel (originally by Old Crow Medicine Show) lyrics - Darius Rucker
Heading down south to the land of the pines
I'm thumbing my way into North Carolina
Staring up the road and pray to God I see headlights
I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
Picking me a bouquet of dogwood flowers
And I'm a-hopin' for Raleigh, I can see my baby tonight
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
Rock me momma any way you feel
Hey momma rock me
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound train
Hey momma rock me
Running from the cold up in New England
I was born to be a fiddler in an old time string band
My baby plays a guitar, I pick a banjo now
Oh, north country winters keep a-getting me down
Lost my money playing poker so I had to leave town
But I ain't turning back to living that old life no more
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
Rock me momma any way you feel
Hey momma rock me
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound train
Hey momma rock me
Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke
I caught a trucker out of Philly had a nice long talk
But he's a-heading west from the Cumberland gap
To Johnson City, Tennessee
I gotta get a move on before the sun
I hear my baby calling my name and I know that she's the only one
And if I die in Raleigh at least I will die free
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
Rock me momma any way you feel
Hey momma rock me
Oh, rock me momma like the wind and the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound train
Hey, hey momma rock me
Oh, so rock me momma like a wagon wheel
Rock me momma any way you feel (I wanna feel)
Hey, hey momma rock me (momma rock me, momma rock me)
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound train
(I wanna rock like a south bound train)
Hey momma rock me
Rock me
I'm thumbing my way into North Carolina
Staring up the road and pray to God I see headlights
I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
Picking me a bouquet of dogwood flowers
And I'm a-hopin' for Raleigh, I can see my baby tonight
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
Rock me momma any way you feel
Hey momma rock me
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound train
Hey momma rock me
Running from the cold up in New England
I was born to be a fiddler in an old time string band

Love Without You lyrics - Darius Rucker
Every friend has got a friend in mind
'Cause I've had more than a little time
So it's on your mark, get ready, set
But I know my heart's not ready yet
I can walk into a room without you
And I don't get drunk and talk about you
So I guess I've learned to live without you
I just don't know how to love without you
She don't have to look just like you
No her eyes don't have to be that blue
It's hard to give someone a chance
When you can't get past that second dance
I can walk into a room without you
And I don't get drunk and talk about you
So I guess I've learned to live without you
I just don't know how to love without you
Sometimes the pain is dulled to numb
And I can't believe how far I've come
I can walk into a room without you
(I can breathe without you)
And I, I don't get drunk and talk about you no more, no more
(And I can sleep without you)
So I, I guess I've learned to live without you
(I can be without, I can be without you)
I just don't know how to love without you
(I don't know how, I don't know how)
See, see I, I had to learn to live without you
(I had to learn to live without you)
Oh but I just don't know how to, how to love, how to love without you
(Oh I just don't know, how to love, how to love without you)
Every friend has got a friend in mind
'Cause I've had more than a little time
'Cause I've had more than a little time
So it's on your mark, get ready, set
But I know my heart's not ready yet
I can walk into a room without you
And I don't get drunk and talk about you
So I guess I've learned to live without you
I just don't know how to love without you
She don't have to look just like you
No her eyes don't have to be that blue
It's hard to give someone a chance
When you can't get past that second dance
I can walk into a room without you
And I don't get drunk and talk about you
So I guess I've learned to live without you
I just don't know how to love without you
Sometimes the pain is dulled to numb
And I can't believe how far I've come
I can walk into a room without you
(I can breathe without you)
And I, I don't get drunk and talk about you no more, no more
(And I can sleep without you)
So I, I guess I've learned to live without you
(I can be without, I can be without you)
I just don't know how to love without you
(I don't know how, I don't know how)
See, see I, I had to learn to live without you
(I had to learn to live without you)
Oh but I just don't know how to, how to love, how to love without you
(Oh I just don't know, how to love, how to love without you)
Every friend has got a friend in mind
'Cause I've had more than a little time
Radio lyrics - Darius Rucker
Seventeen, the only way I had a car
Is after I dropped my mama off where she needed to go
Four bald tires, with the ceiling falling and the window stuck
But the only thing that I cared about was the radio
We'd turn it on, turn it up to ten, and everybody would jump on in
[Chorus:]
Ridin' down the highway
Who wants to be the DJ
I'll find a spot on the side of the road
You find somethin' on the radio
Like a feel real good song
We'll know it when it comes on
Didn't have no money, no place to go
All we needed was a radio
I'd grab my girl, we'd look for somewhere to watch the stars
The perfect place to put it in park and take it slow
She'd sing along to even the ones that she barely knew
She still sounded good a little outta tune, but we didn't care
I'd look at her, she' d look at me, I'll never forget that melody
[Chorus]
Shhh, hey y'all be quiet
That's my favorite song
Hey, man, turn it up loud
Come on, come on, come on
[Chorus]
All we needed, all we needed now
Was a, was a, was a radio
Is after I dropped my mama off where she needed to go
Four bald tires, with the ceiling falling and the window stuck
But the only thing that I cared about was the radio
We'd turn it on, turn it up to ten, and everybody would jump on in
[Chorus:]
Ridin' down the highway
Who wants to be the DJ
I'll find a spot on the side of the road
You find somethin' on the radio
Like a feel real good song
We'll know it when it comes on
Didn't have no money, no place to go
All we needed was a radio
I'd grab my girl, we'd look for somewhere to watch the stars
The perfect place to put it in park and take it slow
She'd sing along to even the ones that she barely knew
She still sounded good a little outta tune, but we didn't care
I'd look at her, she' d look at me, I'll never forget that melody
[Chorus]
Shhh, hey y'all be quiet
That's my favorite song
Hey, man, turn it up loud
Come on, come on, come on
[Chorus]
All we needed, all we needed now
Was a, was a, was a radio
Lost In You lyrics - Darius Rucker
Spring break, tan skin
Lord I can't remember when
I fell, so fast
Knowing it could never last
[Chorus:]
I got lost in the rhythm of the waves of the ocean
Lost in the sunset too
I got lost in your eyes and the time
Don't you know it
Baby, I got lost in you
Five days, four night
A smile I will remember
For the rest of my life
How sweet was your kiss
I still taste it on my lips
[Repeat Chorus]
Packed car, your tears
I said girl I hate to leave you here
I'll be back, I lied
It's been all these years
I still hear your goodbye
[Repeat Chorus]
I got lost in the rhythm of the waves of the ocean
Lost in the sunset too, yeah
I got lost in your eyes and the time
Don't you know it
Baby I got lost in you, yeah
Baby I got lost in you
Oh baby, I got lost in you
Lord I can't remember when
I fell, so fast
Knowing it could never last
[Chorus:]
I got lost in the rhythm of the waves of the ocean
Lost in the sunset too
I got lost in your eyes and the time
Don't you know it
Baby, I got lost in you
Five days, four night
A smile I will remember
For the rest of my life
How sweet was your kiss
I still taste it on my lips
[Repeat Chorus]
Packed car, your tears
I said girl I hate to leave you here
I'll be back, I lied
It's been all these years
I still hear your goodbye
[Repeat Chorus]
I got lost in the rhythm of the waves of the ocean
Lost in the sunset too, yeah
I got lost in your eyes and the time
Don't you know it
Baby I got lost in you, yeah
Baby I got lost in you
Oh baby, I got lost in you
I Will Love You Still (feat. Mallary Hope) lyrics - Darius Rucker
Take the key off the chain
Leave it stuck in the door
Don't even try to explain
What you're leaving me for
Cause you won't cry
And you won't call
And you won't even miss me at all
But I will
(In the middle of the night, in the middle of the day)
Yeah I will
(Every second you're gone, once you go away)
I will love you still
Take those pictures of us
Pull 'em down off the shelf
Go wherever you want
Go, try to be somebody else
'Cause you won't stay
And you won't fight
And you won't wonder
Where I'm sleeping tonight
But I will
(In the middle of the night, in the middle of the day)
Yeah, I will
(Every second you're gone, once you go away)
You know I will love you still
I hope you never spend forever
Wondering if he ever
Wondering if he ever
Wondering if you ever loved me at all
I will
(In the middle of the night, in the middle of the day)
Oh, I will
(Every second you're gone, once you go away)
You know I will love you still
Oh I know, I know that I will love you still
I will love you still
Leave it stuck in the door
Don't even try to explain
What you're leaving me for
Cause you won't cry
And you won't call
And you won't even miss me at all
But I will
(In the middle of the night, in the middle of the day)
Yeah I will

I will love you still
Take those pictures of us
Pull 'em down off the shelf
Go wherever you want
Go, try to be somebody else
'Cause you won't stay
And you won't fight
And you won't wonder
Where I'm sleeping tonight
But I will

You know I will love you still
I hope you never spend forever
Wondering if he ever
Wondering if he ever
Wondering if you ever loved me at all
I will
(In the middle of the night, in the middle of the day)
Oh, I will
(Every second you're gone, once you go away)
You know I will love you still
Oh I know, I know that I will love you still
I will love you still
Take Me Home lyrics - Darius Rucker
I wanna feel that ocean breeze that's got me wrapped around it's fingers
I wanna hear a southern drawl and every word that lingers
I need a sunday morning song by a just got baptized singer
I been away too long, somebody take me home
I need a glass of sweet sun tea brewed out in the backyard
I wanna see a kudzu vine sneaking up on a junk car
I need to sit on my old back porch 'til the world lets go of my arm
I been away too long, oh somebody take me home
Lord have mercy on a poor boy's soul
Crank it up and make these big wheels roll
Can you get me there by the morning light
And make everything alright
'Cause I been away too long
Oh somebody take me home
I love this job, I do
But my soul is wearing thin
Oh I gotta get lost in where I'm from
And find myself again
Oh I been away too long
Somebody take me home
I wanna waste a day with my little man throwing me that old football
Soend sometime with Daddy's girls catching up on what's going on
Then remind the woman I love just how much I miss her when I'm gone
Oh Lord have mercy on a poor boy's soul
Crank it up and make these big wheels roll
Can you get me there by morning light
Oh lord have mercy on my soul
Crank it up and make these big wheels roll
I wanna be there by morning light
It'll make everything alright
Cause I've been away too long
Oh, I've been away too long
I been away too long
Somebody please, somebody take me home
Oh home, home, home

Shine lyrics - Darius Rucker
November of '43
On a boat comin' 'cross the sea
He left a boy, came back a man
She started running' when she saw his face
It'd been 655 days
Since she held his hand
He got down on one knee
and pulled out that ring
That he bought in Aberdeen
And when it hit that New York sky
[Chorus:]
It shined just like a spotlight
A star up in the night sky
The kind of thing that takes your breath away
Her eyes sparked like that diamond
With love beaming from 'em
The kind of light that's never gonna fade
It's gonna shine
For the next 55 years
Through the laughter and the tears
My grandma always fore that band
through atom bombs and a baby boom
Dr. King and a man on the moon
No it never left her hand
On the day she passed away
Mama put it on a chain
Now and then on special days
Mom would wear it around her neck
[Repeat Chorus]
Mama said one of these days
I'd know why she gave me that ring
Sittin' here I know she was right
Oh, it's knot the biggest stone you've ever seen
But girl I can promise you one thing
The rest of your life
It's gonna shine just like a spotlight
A star up in the night sky
The kind of thing that takes your breath away
your eyes sparkled like that diamond
With love beaming from 'em
The kind of light that's never, never, never gonna fade
It's gonna shine, shine, shine
Shine, shine, shine
Shine, shine, shine
Like a beacon calling me home
It's gonna shine
Oh yeah, shine, shine, shine
On a boat comin' 'cross the sea
He left a boy, came back a man
She started running' when she saw his face
It'd been 655 days
Since she held his hand
He got down on one knee
and pulled out that ring
That he bought in Aberdeen
And when it hit that New York sky
[Chorus:]
It shined just like a spotlight
A star up in the night sky
The kind of thing that takes your breath away
Her eyes sparked like that diamond

Heartbreak Road lyrics - Darius Rucker
You've got the keys girl, I'm just a rider
Gas it up and get us outta here
Put the pedal down, I wanna fly girl
Crank it up and catch another gear
Let's go to Vegas, hit California
Or Carolina where the southern breeze blows
[Chorus:]
You can take me to the moon and back
I can kick my boots off, relax in your Cadillac
Baby take me anywhere you wanna go
Just don't take me down Heartbreak Road no
Don't take me down Heartbreak Road
Baby you had me, first time I saw you
I said where you're going, take me there
Oh girl I'm in now for the long haul
You can pick the place, I don't care
[Repeat Chorus]
We can drive all night, we don't need no plans,
remember that you've got my heart in your hands
Let's go to Vegas, hit California
Or Carolina where the southern breeze blows
You can take me to the moon and back
I can kick off my boots and relax in your Cadillac
You can take me anywhere you wanna go,
Just don't take me down Heartbreak Road no
You can take me to the moon and back
I can kick my boots off,
just lay back in your daddy's Cadillac babe
You can take me anywhere you wanna go
Just don't take me down Heartbreak Road no
Just don't take me down Heartbreak Road
Gas it up and get us outta here
Put the pedal down, I wanna fly girl
Crank it up and catch another gear
Let's go to Vegas, hit California
Or Carolina where the southern breeze blows
[Chorus:]
You can take me to the moon and back

Leavin' The Light On lyrics - Darius Rucker
Carolina Moon, Lazy Ol River
Time Keeps Floatin' On By
Moss Hanging From an oak tree
Baby It's just you and me
Sure makes one beautiful sight
We got postcard views
Curled up in this rocking chair
Feel like I ought tip my hat
To the man up stairs
[Chorus:]
Leavin' the light on
Leavin' the light on
Burning the whole night through
Leavin' the light on
Leavin' the light on
So I can look at you
Your pretty brown eyes
Your legs that go forever
Still can't believe you're mine
Come on baby lets take a walk
Follow the path down to that old dock
And bring along that bottle of wine
That old moon's so bright
Just hang in' up there
Feel like I ought count' my blessings
And thank the man upstairs for
[Repeat Chorus]
It's getting kinda late girl
Lets go back to the house
I wanna watch you from my pillow
Til Morning Rolls Around So I'm
Leavin' the light on

Leavin' the light on
So I can, So I can see you
Oh I wanna look at you o so I'm

Lie To Me lyrics - Darius Rucker
Girl look at you right there with that wind in your hair
Like a dream in the sunset light
I couldn't love you anymore, I couldn't love you any less
I guess I'm doing something right
But girl you gotta promise me
That if you ever have to leave
Baby lie to me 'cause I couldn't stand the truth
And I couldn't bear the thought of losin' you
Baby lie to me, tell me everything's all right
And when I'm sound asleep, you can fade into the night
Girl, instead of sayin' goodbye
Just lie to me
Last night when I saw you in a dream, you were packing' your things
And baby it all seemed so real
You came to tell me you were gone, my life had ended like a song
Felt as bad as I could feel
So if there ever comes a day
That you wanna walk away
Baby lie to me 'cause I couldn't stand the truth
And I couldn't bear the thought of losin' you
Baby lie to me, tell me everything's all right
And when I'm sound asleep, you can fade into the night
Girl, instead of sayin' goodbye
Just lie to me
Baby just lie to me 'cause I could not stand the truth
And I couldn't beat the thought of losin' you
Baby lie to me, tell me everything is cool
'Cause knowing you were leavin' girl, that would be so cruel
Girl instead of saying' goodbye
Just smile and look me right in the eye
Yeah girl instead of watching' me cry
Just lie to me oh yeah
Baby lie to me
Like a dream in the sunset light
I couldn't love you anymore, I couldn't love you any less
I guess I'm doing something right
But girl you gotta promise me
That if you ever have to leave
Baby lie to me 'cause I couldn't stand the truth
And I couldn't bear the thought of losin' you
Baby lie to me, tell me everything's all right
And when I'm sound asleep, you can fade into the night
Girl, instead of sayin' goodbye
Just lie to me
Last night when I saw you in a dream, you were packing' your things
And baby it all seemed so real
You came to tell me you were gone, my life had ended like a song
Felt as bad as I could feel
So if there ever comes a day
That you wanna walk away
Baby lie to me 'cause I couldn't stand the truth
And I couldn't bear the thought of losin' you
Baby lie to me, tell me everything's all right
And when I'm sound asleep, you can fade into the night
Girl, instead of sayin' goodbye
Just lie to me
Baby just lie to me 'cause I could not stand the truth
And I couldn't beat the thought of losin' you
Baby lie to me, tell me everything is cool
'Cause knowing you were leavin' girl, that would be so cruel
Girl instead of saying' goodbye
Just smile and look me right in the eye
Yeah girl instead of watching' me cry
Just lie to me oh yeah
Baby lie to me
Your Cheatin' Heart lyrics - Darius Rucker
Your cheatin' heart
Will make you weep
You'll cry and cry
And try to sleep
But sleep won't come
The whole night through
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you...
When tears come down
Like falling rain
You'll toss around
And call my name
You'll walk the floor
The way I do
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you...
Your cheatin' heart
Will make you weep
You'll cry and cry
And try to sleep
But sleep won't come
The whole night through
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you...
When tears fall down down now
Like pouring rain
You'll toss around
And call my name
You'll walk the floor
The way I do
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you...
Will make you weep
You'll cry and cry
And try to sleep
But sleep won't come
The whole night through
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you...
When tears come down
Like falling rain
You'll toss around
And call my name
You'll walk the floor
The way I do
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you...
Your cheatin' heart
Will make you weep
You'll cry and cry
And try to sleep
But sleep won't come
The whole night through
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you...
When tears fall down down now
Like pouring rain
You'll toss around
And call my name
You'll walk the floor
The way I do
Your cheatin' heart will tell on you...
One Tequila lyrics - Darius Rucker
I've been known to drink a beer or two.
And I can handle whiskey ninety proof.
I'm just fine with a glass of wine, champagne to cabernet.
But I crossed the line when I crossed the border and hang out with those aid.
Cause with one tequila, it's bring on the salt and lime.
With two tequilas the whole bar's a friend of mine.
But with three tequilas my legs don't work no more.
Yeah it's one tequila, two tequila, three tequila floor.
I might end up in a Tijuana jail.
Oh and I think it's table left and up of ale.
Cannonball into a neighbor's pool without a stitch of clothes.
But by the end of the night I'll be tongue tied tryin to offer up some espanol.
Cause with one tequila, it's bring on the salt and lime.
With two tequilas the whole bar's a friend of mine.
But with three tequilas my legs don't work no more.
Yeah it's one tequila, two tequila, three tequila floor.
I'll be glad to pour for all you senioritas.
I'd rather taste salty kiss than have a sip of your margarita.
Cause with one tequila, please pass me the salt and lime.
With two tequilas the whole world's a friend of mine.
But with three tequilas my legs won't work no more.
Yeah it's one tequila, two tequila, three tequila floor.
It's four tequila, five tequila, six tequila door.
Somebody take me home.
Dude you know I can't drink tequila, call me a cab.
And I can handle whiskey ninety proof.
I'm just fine with a glass of wine, champagne to cabernet.
But I crossed the line when I crossed the border and hang out with those aid.
Cause with one tequila, it's bring on the salt and lime.
With two tequilas the whole bar's a friend of mine.
But with three tequilas my legs don't work no more.
Yeah it's one tequila, two tequila, three tequila floor.
I might end up in a Tijuana jail.
Oh and I think it's table left and up of ale.
Cannonball into a neighbor's pool without a stitch of clothes.
But by the end of the night I'll be tongue tied tryin to offer up some espanol.
Cause with one tequila, it's bring on the salt and lime.
With two tequilas the whole bar's a friend of mine.
But with three tequilas my legs don't work no more.
Yeah it's one tequila, two tequila, three tequila floor.

Dude you know I can't drink tequila, call me a cab.
Only Wanna Be With You lyrics - Darius Rucker
You and me
We come from different worlds
You like to laugh at me
When I look at other girls
Sometimes you’re crazy
And you wonder why
I’m such a baby
'Cause the dolphins make me cry
Well there's nothing I can do
I've been looking for a girl like you
You look at me
You got nothing left to say
I'm gonna pout at you until I get my way
I wont dance, you wont sing
I just wanna love you
But you wanna wear my ring
Well there’s nothing I can do
I only wanna be with you
You can call me a fool
I only wanna be with you
Put on a little Dylan
Sitting on a fence
I say that line is great
You ask me what it meant by
“Said I shot a man named Gray
Took his wife to Italy
She inherited a million bucks
And when she died it came to me
I can’t help it if I’m lucky”
I only wanna be with you
Ain’t Bobby so cool
I only wanna be with you
Yeah I’m tangled up and blue
I only wanna be with you
You can call me a fool
I only wanna be with you
Sometimes I wonder
If it'll ever end
You get so mad at me
When I go out with my friends
Sometimes you’re crazy
And you wonder why
I’m such a baby yeah
The dolphins make me cry
Well there’s nothing I can do
I only wanna be with you
You can call me a fool
I only wanna be with you
Yeah I’m tangled up and blue
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you
I only wanna be with you
We come from different worlds
You like to laugh at me
When I look at other girls
Sometimes you’re crazy
And you wonder why
I’m such a baby
'Cause the dolphins make me cry
Well there's nothing I can do
I've been looking for a girl like you
You look at me

This lyrics - Darius Rucker
Got a baby girl sleeping in my bedroom
And her mama laughing in my arms
There's the sound of rain on the rooftop
And the game's about to start
I don't really know how I got here
But I'm sure glad that I did
And it's crazy to think that one little thing
Could've changed all of it
Maybe it didn't turn out like I planned
Maybe that's why I'm such, such a lucky man
[Chorus]
For every stoplight I didn't make
Every chance I did or I didn't take
All the nights I went too far
All the girls that broke my heart
All the doors that I had to close
All the things I knew but I didn't know
Thank God for all I missed
Cause it led me here to
This
Like the girl that I loved in high school
Who said she could do better
Or that college I wanted to go to
'Til I got that letter
All the fights and the tears and the heartache
I thought I'd never get through
And the moment I almost gave up
All lead me here to you
I didn't understand it way back when
But sitting here right now it all makes perfect sense
[Repeat Chorus]
How I cried when my mama passed away
But now I've got an angel looking out for me today
So nothing's a mistake
[Repeat Chorus]
It led me here to
This
And her mama laughing in my arms
There's the sound of rain on the rooftop
And the game's about to start
I don't really know how I got here
But I'm sure glad that I did
And it's crazy to think that one little thing
Could've changed all of it
Maybe it didn't turn out like I planned
Maybe that's why I'm such, such a lucky man
[Chorus]
For every stoplight I didn't make
Every chance I did or I didn't take
All the nights I went too far
All the girls that broke my heart
All the doors that I had to close
All the things I knew but I didn't know
Thank God for all I missed
Cause it led me here to
This
Like the girl that I loved in high school
Who said she could do better
Or that college I wanted to go to
'Til I got that letter
All the fights and the tears and the heartache
I thought I'd never get through
And the moment I almost gave up
All lead me here to you
I didn't understand it way back when
But sitting here right now it all makes perfect sense
[Repeat Chorus]
How I cried when my mama passed away
But now I've got an angel looking out for me today
So nothing's a mistake
[Repeat Chorus]
It led me here to

Come Back Song lyrics - Darius Rucker
I woke up again this morning
And wouldn't you know it... pouring rain
I went and burned a pot of coffee
And like us I poured it down the drain
'Cause I didn't know I needed you so
And letting you go was wrong
And baby I know you got your radio on
So this is my my bad, come back song
I know I said I wouldn't miss you
But now I'm saying I'm a fool
You're on the feel good side of leaving
And I'm the backside of a mule
And I didn't know I needed you so
And letting you go was wrong
And baby I know you got your radio on
So this is my so sad come back song
And now I'm laying down without you
In this king size empty bed
And I wish I had my arms around you
But I'll just dream of you instead
'Cause I didn't know I needed you so
And letting you go was wrong
And baby I know you got your radio on
So this is my get packed, come back

Might Get Lucky lyrics - Darius Rucker
I'll chase the kids around the yard all afternoon
Put away the dishes so she don't have to
Fix the screen door on the porch like I said I'd do
Tell her I don't know how you do it baby when I'm gone
Dance her 'round the kitchen to a George Strait song
Sneak a kiss on the back of the neck like we were alone
And if I'm right on the money
You know I might get lucky
[Chorus]
There's a window of opportunity between
When the kids are tucked in and a half glass of Chardonnay
She knows what I'm thinking reads me like a book
But the key to get a second look
And a come here honey
Is treat her right in the daylight
And I might get lucky
Well I work out on the road and it wears us thin
She wonders when I'm leaving even when I'm walking in
So we set aside time to get to know each other again
And if I play my cards right
I know it sounds kind of funny
But I might get lucky
[Repeat Chorus]
Someday she might wake up and see
She's way out of my league
But then again
Maybe she won't
You know I might get lucky
[Repeat Chorus]
I might get lucky
I might get lucky
I might get lucky
Put away the dishes so she don't have to
Fix the screen door on the porch like I said I'd do
Tell her I don't know how you do it baby when I'm gone
Dance her 'round the kitchen to a George Strait song
Sneak a kiss on the back of the neck like we were alone
And if I'm right on the money
You know I might get lucky
[Chorus]
There's a window of opportunity between
When the kids are tucked in and a half glass of Chardonnay
She knows what I'm thinking reads me like a book
But the key to get a second look
And a come here honey
Is treat her right in the daylight
And I might get lucky
Well I work out on the road and it wears us thin
She wonders when I'm leaving even when I'm walking in
So we set aside time to get to know each other again
And if I play my cards right
I know it sounds kind of funny
But I might get lucky
[Repeat Chorus]
Someday she might wake up and see
She's way out of my league
But then again
Maybe she won't
You know I might get lucky
[Repeat Chorus]
I might get lucky
I might get lucky
I might get lucky
Whiskey And You lyrics - Darius Rucker
Always there
When my world starts closing in
Something to hold
No matter how long it's been
Gets me high
Then knocks me to the ground
Soothes my mind
And then begins to break me down
[Chorus]
Whiskey and you
Ain't nothing I can do
But come crawling back to
Whiskey and you
I never asked you to love me
I never begged you to stay
But I never want you to leave me
I wouldn't have it any other way
[Repeat Chorus]
As darkness finds the candle
And the flame stops flickering
Girl I know and I hope
It won't be too long
'Til we light it up again
[Repeat Chorus]
Whiskey and you
There ain't nothing, there ain't nothing I can do
But I keep crawling, I keep coming back to
Whiskey and you
When my world starts closing in
Something to hold
No matter how long it's been
Gets me high
Then knocks me to the ground
Soothes my mind
And then begins to break me down
[Chorus]
Whiskey and you
Ain't nothing I can do
But come crawling back to
Whiskey and you
I never asked you to love me
I never begged you to stay
But I never want you to leave me
I wouldn't have it any other way
[Repeat Chorus]
As darkness finds the candle
And the flame stops flickering
Girl I know and I hope
It won't be too long
'Til we light it up again
[Repeat Chorus]
Whiskey and you
There ain't nothing, there ain't nothing I can do
But I keep crawling, I keep coming back to
Whiskey and you
Southern State Of Mind lyrics - Darius Rucker
I was up in New York City just the other week
You should've seen the waitress face when I ordered sweet tea
She said we don't have that here and I apologized
I said please forgive me I'm in a southern state of mind
And those girls out in California they don't understand
They don't like it when I hold the door or when I say yes ma'am
They act like I done something wrong and they give me the evil eye
I say honey I'm sorry I'm in a southern state of mind
[Chorus]
I could be anywhere
In my heart I'm always there
Where they drink sweet tea and they raise you to be polite
No changin' who I am
That's the way I've always been
No matter what state I'm in
I'm in a southern state of mind
I'm always walkin' round tellin' everybody hi
Just a wavin' at the strangers in the cars passin' by
Some people may look at me and say that boy just ain't right
Hey y'all I ain't crazy I'm in a southern state of mind
[Repeat Chorus]
You can see it in the clothes I wear, you can hear it when I talk
Ball cap, boots and jeans and a little southern drawl
I could be up in Ohio or back home in Caroline
No matter what state I'm in
I'm in a southern state of mind
Don't matter what state I'm in
I'm in a southern state of mind
A southern state of mind
You should've seen the waitress face when I ordered sweet tea
She said we don't have that here and I apologized
I said please forgive me I'm in a southern state of mind
And those girls out in California they don't understand
They don't like it when I hold the door or when I say yes ma'am
They act like I done something wrong and they give me the evil eye
I say honey I'm sorry I'm in a southern state of mind
[Chorus]
I could be anywhere
In my heart I'm always there
Where they drink sweet tea and they raise you to be polite
No changin' who I am
That's the way I've always been
No matter what state I'm in
I'm in a southern state of mind
I'm always walkin' round tellin' everybody hi
Just a wavin' at the strangers in the cars passin' by
Some people may look at me and say that boy just ain't right
Hey y'all I ain't crazy I'm in a southern state of mind
[Repeat Chorus]
You can see it in the clothes I wear, you can hear it when I talk
Ball cap, boots and jeans and a little southern drawl
I could be up in Ohio or back home in Caroline
No matter what state I'm in
I'm in a southern state of mind
Don't matter what state I'm in
I'm in a southern state of mind
A southern state of mind
Love Will Do That lyrics - Darius Rucker
The second I saw you
What was important
Wasn't important no more
Love will do that
Love will do that
Made the old moon burn brighter
Led to all-nighters
Made sleeping a thing of the past
Love will do that
Love will do that
[Chorus]
It changes everything
Makes the angels sing
Puts the past in the past
It'll drive you crazy
Sometimes it just makes you laugh
Yeah, love will do that
Turns minutes to hours
Days into years
Gets time to moving so fast
Love will do that
It makes you move mountains
Or not an inch
Life's good right where we're at
Love will do that
Love will do that
[Repeat Chorus]
It'll give you a sunset
And an old rockin' chair
A hand to hold while you're looking back
Yeah, love will do that
Love will do that
[Repeat Chorus (x2)]
What was important
Wasn't important no more
Love will do that
Love will do that
Made the old moon burn brighter
Led to all-nighters
Made sleeping a thing of the past
Love will do that
Love will do that
[Chorus]
It changes everything
Makes the angels sing
Puts the past in the past
It'll drive you crazy
Sometimes it just makes you laugh
Yeah, love will do that
Turns minutes to hours
Days into years
Gets time to moving so fast
Love will do that
It makes you move mountains
Or not an inch
Life's good right where we're at
Love will do that
Love will do that
[Repeat Chorus]
It'll give you a sunset
And an old rockin' chair
A hand to hold while you're looking back
Yeah, love will do that
Love will do that
[Repeat Chorus (x2)]
The Craziest Thing lyrics - Darius Rucker
Way back when
She did a hundred and ten
In her dad's old Chevrolet
And she once climbed
Way up high
To paint her name on a water tank
She's got that little red rose
On her big toe
Tattooed in Myrtle Beach
Went to Mardi Gras
With the mother-in-law
Got a suitcase full of beads
She's walked on fire
And jumped out of planes for fun
But loving me is the craziest thing
That she's ever done
[Chorus]
She's living on faith
I'm chasing my dream
I fly and fall
'Til I unravel at the seams
She'd never played it safe
Never walked when she could run
But loving me is the craziest thing
That she's ever done
Left the bright lights drove down 95
To a sleepy southern town
Gave up a sweet gig to have a couple kids
Chasing her around
All her friends roll their eyes and grin
When she says that I'm the one
They say loving me is the craziest thing
That she's ever done
[Repeat Chorus]
She likes walking on a tightrope
Dancing on a ledge
But she's knows I'll catch her
If she falls off the edge
[Repeat Chorus]
Yeah, loving me is the wildest thing
That she's ever done
She did a hundred and ten
In her dad's old Chevrolet
And she once climbed
Way up high
To paint her name on a water tank
She's got that little red rose
On her big toe
Tattooed in Myrtle Beach
Went to Mardi Gras
With the mother-in-law
Got a suitcase full of beads
She's walked on fire
And jumped out of planes for fun
But loving me is the craziest thing
That she's ever done
[Chorus]
She's living on faith
I'm chasing my dream
I fly and fall
'Til I unravel at the seams
She'd never played it safe
Never walked when she could run
But loving me is the craziest thing
That she's ever done
Left the bright lights drove down 95
To a sleepy southern town
Gave up a sweet gig to have a couple kids
Chasing her around
All her friends roll their eyes and grin
When she says that I'm the one
They say loving me is the craziest thing
That she's ever done
[Repeat Chorus]
She likes walking on a tightrope
Dancing on a ledge
But she's knows I'll catch her
If she falls off the edge
[Repeat Chorus]
Yeah, loving me is the wildest thing
That she's ever done
Things I'd Never Do lyrics - Darius Rucker
I'd never leave the perfect girl
Or rip apart the perfect world
Just up and leave in the middle of a song
I'd never pack my things in a Silverado
Drive on out to Colorado
Just to find some freedom I thought was gone
Ooooh
There are things I'd never do
[Chorus]
But here I am
In this hotel room
Thinking 'bout you and what I've done
Oh, what have I done
Head in my hands
Thinking about a lot of things
I wish that I could change
It's sad but it's true
I've done a lot of things I'd never do
I'd never ever work so much
That I'd lose sight, I'd lose touch
Of everything a man could ever want
I'd never lose my cool and say
Those words that cut just like a blade
And leave you dying, crying all alone
[Repeat Chorus (x2)]
I'd never leave the perfect girl
Or rip apart the perfect world
Just up and leave in the middle of a song
Or rip apart the perfect world
Just up and leave in the middle of a song
I'd never pack my things in a Silverado
Drive on out to Colorado
Just to find some freedom I thought was gone
Ooooh
There are things I'd never do
[Chorus]
But here I am
In this hotel room
Thinking 'bout you and what I've done
Oh, what have I done
Head in my hands
Thinking about a lot of things
I wish that I could change
It's sad but it's true
I've done a lot of things I'd never do
I'd never ever work so much
That I'd lose sight, I'd lose touch
Of everything a man could ever want
I'd never lose my cool and say
Those words that cut just like a blade
And leave you dying, crying all alone
[Repeat Chorus (x2)]
I'd never leave the perfect girl
Or rip apart the perfect world
Just up and leave in the middle of a song
We All Fall Down lyrics - Darius Rucker
What makes a man
Work 'til his kids get too old to kiss and hug
Keep on climbing that imaginary mountain
When is enough enough
What makes a man build a kingdom
Only to lose his woman
How high is too high how big is too big
How far will we go just to slip off the edge
We all fall down
Life takes us out
The sky starts spinning when our heads
Get above the clouds
The higher we fly the harder it feels
When we hit the ground
Yeah we all fall down
Yeah we all fall down
How does a man pick himself up
When he's let himself down
Tell me where does he find the courage
To turn his world back around
Will he break down and cry
Like someone just died
What can he say about the man he used to be
When he can't even speak but he's dying to scream
We all fall down
When we find out
That the sky starts spinning when our heads
Get above the clouds
The higher we fly the harder it feels
When we hit the ground
Yeah we all fall down
Yeah we all fall down
He's the only one to blame and the only who knows
How low must he go to win back his soul
Yeah we all fall down
Yeah we all fall down
Work 'til his kids get too old to kiss and hug
Keep on climbing that imaginary mountain
When is enough enough
What makes a man build a kingdom
Only to lose his woman
How high is too high how big is too big
How far will we go just to slip off the edge
We all fall down
Life takes us out
The sky starts spinning when our heads
Get above the clouds
The higher we fly the harder it feels
When we hit the ground
Yeah we all fall down
Yeah we all fall down
How does a man pick himself up
When he's let himself down
Tell me where does he find the courage
To turn his world back around
Will he break down and cry
Like someone just died
What can he say about the man he used to be
When he can't even speak but he's dying to scream
We all fall down
When we find out
That the sky starts spinning when our heads
Get above the clouds
The higher we fly the harder it feels
When we hit the ground
Yeah we all fall down
Yeah we all fall down
He's the only one to blame and the only who knows
How low must he go to win back his soul
Yeah we all fall down
Yeah we all fall down
I Don't Care (feat. Brad Paisley) lyrics - Darius Rucker
Is 10 o'clock in the morning
Too early to drink beer
I don't know and I don't care
When a girl walks by in a two-piece
Is it impolite to stare
I don't know and I don't care
I don't know what beach this is
I don't know what day this is
I don't know if I packed enough clothes to wear
And I don't care
Do you think those are real or fake
You mean those, right there
I don't know and I don't care
Do you want the blonde or the brunette
Or the one with the long, red hair
I don't know and I don't care
I don't know what her name is
I don't know where she learned to kiss
I don't know if that's her boyfriend over there
And I don't care
Is 4 o'clock in the morning
Too late to drink beer
I don't know and I don't care
I don't know the last time I ate
I don't know how I'm still awake
I don't know how long a man live on beer
I don't know where I left my phone
I don't know when we're goin' home
I don't know if I've still got a job up there
And I don't care
Too early to drink beer
I don't know and I don't care
When a girl walks by in a two-piece
Is it impolite to stare
I don't know and I don't care
I don't know what beach this is
I don't know what day this is
I don't know if I packed enough clothes to wear
And I don't care
Do you think those are real or fake
You mean those, right there
I don't know and I don't care
Do you want the blonde or the brunette
Or the one with the long, red hair
I don't know and I don't care
I don't know what her name is
I don't know where she learned to kiss
I don't know if that's her boyfriend over there
And I don't care
Is 4 o'clock in the morning
Too late to drink beer
I don't know and I don't care
I don't know the last time I ate
I don't know how I'm still awake
I don't know how long a man live on beer
I don't know where I left my phone
I don't know when we're goin' home
I don't know if I've still got a job up there
And I don't care
She's Beautiful lyrics -
Have you ever seen a prairie wind
Make a wave on a wheat field bringing needed rain
Have you ever seen a mamma stop
A baby's cry with just the touch and a whisper of his name
When she looks at me
That's what I see
[Chorus]
She's beautiful like that
Like a winter rose, snow on the ground
I was blessed the day I found her
I'm one lucky man
Cause the more I know the more I need her
The more I love the more I see her heart
Is a shining star
She's beautiful like that
Have you ever seen a purple sky
Sun coming up bringing new life to everything it shines on
Have you ever seen a couple after 50 years
Laughing and holding hands still going strong
Well the reason why
I'll love her 'til the day I die
[Repeat Chorus]
The sound of a church bell
The road that leads back home
An unspoken promise
You'll never be alone
[Repeat Chorus]
She's beautiful like that
She's beautiful like that
Make a wave on a wheat field bringing needed rain
Have you ever seen a mamma stop
A baby's cry with just the touch and a whisper of his name
When she looks at me
That's what I see
[Chorus]
She's beautiful like that
Like a winter rose, snow on the ground
I was blessed the day I found her
I'm one lucky man
Cause the more I know the more I need her
The more I love the more I see her heart
Is a shining star
She's beautiful like that
Have you ever seen a purple sky
Sun coming up bringing new life to everything it shines on
Have you ever seen a couple after 50 years
Laughing and holding hands still going strong
Well the reason why
I'll love her 'til the day I die
[Repeat Chorus]
The sound of a church bell
The road that leads back home
An unspoken promise
You'll never be alone
[Repeat Chorus]
She's beautiful like that
She's beautiful like that
I Got Nothin' lyrics - Darius Rucker
It's my third cup of coffee
Fifth time I've said I'm sorry
The sun slowly peaking through the glass
Says we been up all night
We both know where this is going
It's been a long time coming
Is it really over, is this really goodbye
Maybe I should say something
Maybe you'd change your mind
Maybe, maybe buy a little more time
[Chorus]
But I got nothin'
No magic words
To stop your leavin'
To end this hurt
I'm just blank
I'm just staring into space
Praying please, please let me think of something
Cause I got nothin'
I watch you pack your things
You look down at your ring
You slowly slip it off and then
You lay it on our bed
Maybe I should pick it up
And get down on my knees
Tell you what you wanna hear
And give you what you need
[Repeat Chorus]
You're almost at the door
And you stop and turn around
Your eyes are begging me
Please say something right now
[Repeat Chorus]
Fifth time I've said I'm sorry

Maybe you'd change your mind
Maybe, maybe buy a little more time
[Chorus]
But I got nothin'
No magic words
To stop your leavin'
To end this hurt
I'm just blank
I'm just staring into space
Praying please, please let me think of something
Cause I got nothin'
I watch you pack your things
You look down at your ring
You slowly slip it off and then
You lay it on our bed
Maybe I should pick it up
And get down on my knees
Tell you what you wanna hear
And give you what you need
[Repeat Chorus]
You're almost at the door
And you stop and turn around
Your eyes are begging me
Please say something right now
[Repeat Chorus]
