Miranda Lambert Album

well they say there's lots of fans
for those texas country bands
playing all them songs about texas pride
well you can make one little bet
I ain't seen my fan club yet
but I'm hell bent for gettin them on my side

I sing the eyes of texas
make my home on the range
and I shout out T for texas every hour
I've been drown in whiskey river and I've played down at the La Grange
and the rose of san antone is my favorite flower

I saw Robert Earl Keen
at the dance hall down in green
he said the party never ends down aggy way
yeah and Dallas has their show with old David Allen Coe
he never even called me by my name
well I can rope a steer
drink a keg of Lonestar beer
I got three pet armadillos and a pick up truck
I got a redneck for a mother
and I'm here to tell you brother
if you ain't born in texas then you're out of luck
cus' them people down in texas dont give a dog-gone if
you ain't born in texas then you better go home

Highway 65 sure sounds kinda nice
I feel like drivin' somewhere far away
Got the top rolled down, radio up loud
Playin Willie and Old Hank

Well I don't really have a certain destination
I'll just fill the gas tank up and use my imagination

(Chorus)
I wanna feel my freedom blowin' through my hair
Throw my troubles to the wind and scream out I don't care
I'm tired of bein' down and out cause that ain't what life should be about
I can feel the load gettin' lighter with every mile
I wanna be somebody else for a little while

Sometimes we're afraid to change, scared of what tomorrow brings
Same routine every day
If you never stop and listen, you dont know what you'll be missin'
Don't let your life slip away

(Chorus)
I wanna feel my freedom blowin' through my hair
Throw my troubles to the wind and scream out I don't care
I'm tired of bein' down and out cause that ain't what life should be about.
I can feel the load gettin' lighter with every mile
I wanna be somebody else for a little while

(Chorus)
I wanna feel my freedom blowin' through my hair
Throw my troubles to the wind and scream out I don't care
I'm tired of bein' down and out cause that ain't what life should be about
I can feel the load gettin' lighter with every mile
I wanna be somebody else for a little while

Stay up all night and sleep all day and wake up with a smile
I wanna be somebody else for a little while

I love you, more than you'll ever know.
And I miss you, more than I care to show.
I'll get better at pretending nothing's wrong.
It's easy, when you're always all alone.

Lately, I see leavin in your eyes.
So nothing you say, will come as a suprise.
You don't even have to try to be sincere.
Just go on, and leave me lyin' here.

And I'll tell my heart,
You didn't cause it to break.
And I'll tell my mind,
That I'm the one that made the mistake.
And I'll tell my eyes,
They don't even have to cry one tear.
Just go on and leave me lyin' here.

So go on, and find you someone new.
I'll make sure that I end the fool.
And maybe someday, I'll begin to make it clear.
You're the one who left me lyin' here.

And I'll tell my heart,
You didn't cause it to break.
And I'll tell my mind,
That I'm the one that made the mistake.
And I'll tell my eyes,
They don't even have to cry one tear.
Just go on and leave me lyin' here.

Just walk away and leave me lyin' here.

Well you walked into my heart like it was some old dance hall floor
I should have known better I had seen your kind before
you rolled in like a tumble weed the texas wind had blown
and i feel another heartache coming on

Theres no doubt about it darlin you're the hurtin kind
like all those other memories branded on my mind
I fell right into this one you were coming on so strong
and I feel another heartache comin on

well its a shame you couldnt keep those promises you made to me
tellin me you would never do me wrong
another lesson I will learn
anohter bridge that I will burn
you're just another heartache comin on

well I guess I'll learn the hard way darlin love is just a curse
theres no sense in crying it will only make it worse
so we'll go on our seperate ways and I'll be fine alone
until I feel another heartache comin on
until another heartache comes along

what in the world is happening to me
I've already tried to shake your memory
I don't know why it is I can't get over you
cus' honey you ain't worth this pain I'm going through

you told me that your love would heal my broken heart
so I let you in my world and you tore it all apart
what in the world is happening to me
I've already tried to shake your memory

I dont know why it is I cant get over you
cus' honey you ain't worth this pain I'm going through

I should have known you weren't the kind to ever settle down
always leaving me alone while you did your runnin 'round

oh tell me what in the world did you do to me
I'm sick and tired of trying to shake your memory
I don't know why it is I can't get over you
cus' honey you aint worth this pain I'm going through

I said honey you ain't worth this pain I'm going through

Daddy always said he was wrong for me
And in the end he'd only bring me misery
I tried and tried to turn away, but something bout him makes me stay

The only man whose ever knocked me to my knees
The only man whose ever set my spirit free

He was born and raised in Lynchburg, Tennessee
His daddy owns a big distillery
He's an old time wiskey drinker, when I'm with him I get meaner
And momma says hes ruined my destiny
He sure has made a women out of me

I fell in love with Jack Daniels again
Hes the best kind of lover that there is
I can have him when I please, he always satisfies my needs
He takes me back no matter where I've been
Yeah I fell in love with Jack Daniels again

(Instrumental Break)

I fell in love with Jack Daniels again
Hes the best kind of lover that there is
I can have him when I please, he always satisfies my needs
He takes me back no matter where I've been
Yeah I fell in love with Jack Daniels again

Jack Daniels if you please
Knock me to my knees
You're the only friend there has ever been that didn't do me wrong

Jack Daniels if you please
Knock me to my knees
You can kill this pain, its drivin me insane, since my babys gone

I'm texas as hell
made in honery
I don't need no loud mouth
comin' on to me

my temper gets hotter in red white and blue blazes
you know dog-gone well everybody can tell I'm texas as hell

well I know I haven't been around a long time
but I've heard my share of
those worn out love lines
if you ain't redneck
dont waste your time
because right now I'm in a lonestar state of mind

and I'm texas as hell
made in honery
I don't need no loud mouth
comin on to me
my temper gets hotter in red white and blue blazes
you know dog-gone well everybody can tell
I'm texas as hell

well I guess you think that I'll be persuaded
but how many times do I have to say this
don't mess with me boy
for heaven's sake
didnt anybody tell you messin with texas was a big mistake

cus' I'm texas as hell
I'm made in honery
I don't need no loud mouth comin on to me
my temper gets hotter in red white and blue blazes
you know dog-gone well everybody can tell
I'm texas as hell

you know dog-gone well everybody can tell I'm texas as hell
yeah

well there's somethin that I like about a honky tonk
whiskey drinkin cowboys and lonesome country songs
wonderin if I'll fall in love or if I won't
well there's somethin that I like about a honky tonk

guess that all my life I've been a runnin' round
playin all the honky tonks from town to town
I'm just not the kind to ever settle down
and a honky tonk's the only love I've ever found
there's somethin' that I like about a honky tonk
whiskey drinkin cowboys and lonesome country songs
wonderin if I'll fall in love or if I won't
there's somethin that I like about a honky tonk

well I've had my share of dancin' partners that's for sure
but I've never two-stepped my way into love before
but every night you'll see me crawlin back for more
cus' I just can't seem to stay away from swingin doors

well there's somethin that i like about a honky tonk

there's somethin that i like about a honky tonk
whiskey drinkin; cowboys and lonesome country songs
wonderin' if I'll fall in love or if I won't
well there's somethin that I like about a honky tonk

there's somethin that I like
about those neon lights
there's somethin that I like about a honky tonk

Used to stay for hours, and listen to the rain.
You'd hold me on the porch swing, while our troubles washed away.
And Daddy'd come and get me, girl it's time to come inside.
And I'd say, just a few more minutes, Daddy please, we need a little time.
To say our last good-byes.

Time flew by so quickly, and our love slowly died.
We both knew that we had grown apart, neither one knew why...
Told me you'd come back when, you'd made up your mind.
Now all those memories faded, all except the night...
You said your last good-bye....

I know you needed time to find yourself,
But I can't keep my heart upon that shelf.
Boy it's been awhile now, since I heard your voice.
I didn't want to call you, but my heart left me no choice....
I just called to tell you, that I'm really doing fine..
That I been doing lots of thinkin', and I finally decided it was time.
To say my last good-bye...

Alone in a booth, in the Pioneer Cafe
I'm strung out from the road, a pillow in my hands
I sip the last straw from a cold cup of coffee
and try to sort out my feelings as good as I can
Two hours behind me theres a boy back in dallas
my phone will be ringing his afternoon call
but he'll get no answer, the queens left her palace
shes alone in a cafe in Witchita Falls

back out on the highway towards Oklahoma
I'm driving and crying and hating it all
this old chevroley is raising the sunset
and taking me further from Witchita Falls

I dont know where I'm going I have no direction
and all i can say is I've made up my mind
I just want to travel a long way from heartache
wherever it takes me I'll leave it behind
I guess that he thought i would stay there forever
living my life with my back to the wall
well maybe the waitress will send him that letter
I left on the table in Witchita Falls
I'm going somewhere other than Texas
a long way from Dallas in Witchita Falls
