College (With Brad Paisley)
. . .



She stops and checks her reflection in a car parked on the corner
She says its hell on me this working down at the diner
Some people say man she was hot back when she was younger
Yeah well she was a dancer when she lived in LA

Well she was someone's baby doll
A beauty queen to someone long ago
For the midnight show

And if you close your eyes
You can hear the music playing
You can see her dancing underneath the spotlight
And when she sleeps she dreams she's back in Hollywood
Back when all the world was young
She was someone's baby doll

She stops and checks her reflection in the bathroom on her lunch break
She says “I still look good for someone half of my real age”
Some people say “Man I bet she still makes love like an earthquake”
Yeah but man she ain't easy – she ain't letting you in my friend, my friend

Its time to wake up baby doll
Put your best dress and your high heals on
And dream your gone

When you close your eyes
You can hear the music playing
You can see her dancing underneath the spotlight
And when she sleeps she dreams she's back in Hollywood
Back when all the world was young
She was someone's baby doll

She stops and calls an old friend from the payphone at the subway
She says I feel like I'm just sitting here wasting my days away
It's time to move on baby doll
And walk away just like you did before – when you wanted more

When you close your eyes
You hear the music playing
You can see her dancing underneath the spotlight
And when she sleeps she dreams she's back in Hollywood
When she was a younger girl – a pretty heart in a tainted world
Not sure who you wanna be
Your daddy's little drama queen
I hope that when you find yourself
You're more than just a baby doll



. . .



Day after day
The search goes on
No ones explained
That grevings so strong
Love runs so deep
Down in your soul
It hit me so high
All that I know

(Chorus:)
Cause baby the lucky ones
Baby the lucky ones
Baby the lucky ones
For a moment or two
Get to fall in love with somebody like you
Get to fall in love with somebody like you

They say use your head
Don't lose control
To hell with that pride
I swallowed it hole
There's nothing but love
No one but you
Can make such a hero
Of such a fool

(Chorus)

Baby the lucky ones
Baby the lucky ones
Baby the lucky ones
For a moment or two
Get to fall in love with somebody like you
The lucky ones
Baby the lucky ones
Baby the lucky ones
For a moment or two
Get to fall in love with somebody like you
Get to fall in love with somebody like you



. . .



You say you love me but you love me not
Something about true love that you must have forgot
To lose a memory I know just where to go
Somewhere between Texas and Mexico
Somewhere between Texas and Mexico

(Chorus:)
King fish are jumping – the moon is right
Full throttle captain til the we're out of sight
Stars on the ocean will find me I know
Somewhere between Texas and Mexico
Somewhere between Texas and Mexico

South Padre Island to the Brownsville Bay
My heart is healing with each breaking way
But I got some real friends and they're ready to go
Somewhere between Texas and Mexico
Somewhere between Texas and Mexico

(Chorus)

It's gonna take just a little more time
With a little help from the salt and a lime
Something about the wind and the sea sets a broken heart free out there yeah

(Chorus)

Somewhere between Texas and Mexico



. . .



She was standing there at the edge of outta control.
Hair wild and her eyes filled with the pain.
She took her heart on a string and tied it to a red balloon
and she watched it fly up high into the clouds.

Don't break my heart again. We're one in the same.
Baptised by tears. Washed in the blame.
You can let your heart go. But I will hunt you down.
Your love is all I want to win. Don't break my heart again.

He dreams of a girl with a heart tied to a red balloon.
He wants her so bad, she wants him too.
There standing there at the edge of another lonely night.
House empty and the walls are caving in.

Don't break my heart again. We're one in the same.
Baptised by tears. Washed in the blame.
You can let your heart go. But I will hunt you down.
Your love is all I want to win. Don't break my heart again.

It's hard to find love.....
It's hard to find love.....

Your love is all I want to win. Don't break my heart again.

Can you help me out with something
Cause I feel a little sad inside
Did you turn me on for nothing
Are you sad or satisfied
It was long before today
That I felt you were slipping away

(Chorus:)
And you can't change anything
You can't change anyone
You can't do nothing about the way I feel
You can lay into me
It won't change anything about the way I feel
About my little heaven
My little heaven

Can I pay you some attention
Tell me would it be ok
I'm a little imperfection
And your picture perfectly
And I don't think I could take it
If I thought you were trying to fake it

(Chorus)

If you want me baby I'll be there
Take me away

(Chorus)

My little heaven

(With Brad Paisley)

Pat:
we were just dumb kids
with a 6 pack
that bad fake ID I bought
sitting on the living room couch
hoping that we didn't get caught

Brad:
and when we did my dad had some good advice for me
he said son there's a time & place for just about everything
its called college

next thing I know im packin up
and hey im outta here
a backseat full of clothes
in my old cavalier
Pat:
there was empty pizza boxes
stacked around the room
a couple of bears on Tuesday
and one in the afternoon
hey, college

Brad:
those were the best days of my life
I found my friends myself and my wife

Pat:
I learned almost everything I know
Without ever gaining knowledge

Brad:
In college
In college

I had such a good time in those 4 years
That I stretched it into 6

Pat:
AND I'D LIKE TO THANK OL' GEORGE'S BAR
FOR THE CLASSES THAT I MISSED

Brad:
I was searching for the meaning of life
When I saw her walk my way

Both:
And there was no doubt in my mind
That it wasn't about no GPA

Brad:
Those were the best days of my life
I found my friends myself and my wife

Pat:
Learned almost everything I know
Without ever gaining knowledge

Brad:
In college

Those were the best days of my life
Pat:
I found my friends myself and my wife

Brad:
Learned almost everything I know
Might have gained a little knowledge

Both:
In college (yeah yeah yeah)
In college (yeah yeah yeah)
In college (yeah yeah yeah)
In college (yeah yeah yeah)

. . .



I used to be so down and out
I used to be so blue
Now the only thing I talk about
And the only thing I do
Is stand around like a school kid
Just off the merry-go-round
And if I'm dizzy it's because I'm headed
To the one good thing I'd found

(Chorus:)
Yeah one thing is good as gold
I'm nothing without you too hold
Yeah the one thing I know in this world
Is that I need you to be my girl

I got so good at hiding
I couldn't find myself
Yeah but girl you got me smiling
Feeling like somebody else
I guess you changed my makeup
I aint the same sad clown
Yeah ever since you showed up
This aint the same sad town

(Chorus x2)

You're the one thing
You're the one thing
You're the one thing



. . .



I feel like getting out of here
I feel like giving up
I give my best and you punch and you kick me
Then you tell me that I aint enough
Everybody know what's gonna happen
Everybody know what's in store
I give you everything that you ask me
Now I just can't give it anymore

(Chorus:)
Over and over and over and over
What kind a spell have you got me in
Over and over and over and over
What kind a spell have you got me in
Under the gun
Out of my mind
I lost my brain
And that's just fine
I'm just a fool
No it aint cool
But I am still in love with you

I don't know why I'm getting so angry
I just know that I'm getting bored
After all the crap that's happened
I hear my heart break & it's knocking at the door

(Chorus)

Open your eyes
Hey lighten up
You look like nails
But you aint that tough
You got what you want
Cuz im still here
No I aint going anywhere

Under the gun
Out of my mind
I lost my brain
And that's just fine
I'm just a fool
No it aint cool
But I am still in love with you

Over and over and over and over
What kind a spell have you got me under
Over and over and over and over
What kind a spell have you got me…

. . .



You drink one for your memories
You drink one for yourself
You drink one for your family
Last time you saw them was a long time ago

I sing one for the children
You sing one for the miles
You sing one for them pretty green eyes
I'm headed home baby - I got a long way to go

And sing me to sleep sweet city
And let your highway be your lullaby
With nothing in my pocket
No fortune do I know
I'm headed home baby - I got a long way to go

Well you say a little prayer in the morning
You pray for those you left behind
Your heart starts to break as the sun goes down
I'm headed home baby - I got a long way to go

Sing me to sleep little darling
And do that little dance for me
Nothing in my pocket
No fortune do I know
I'm headed home mama - I got a long way to go

I will be there by the morning
And I don't know what makes me leave anyway, anyway, anyway

And God I miss you little darling
And save that little dance for me
With nothing in my pocket
No fortunes do I know
I'm headed home baby - I got a long way to go

It's good to be home
It's good to be home
I'm headed home baby - I got a long way to go

. . .



Well I believe in hope and marriage
Forever and I do
But love suffers pain when you try to hard
And tonight we're living proof
But if we fell in love
We can fall in love again
There is no doubt we can work it out
Find a way to fall back in
Do you remember when I met you
What I whispered in your ear…

(Chorus:)
Be my temporary angel
And I'll be your love for just one day
Hold me for the moment
Let the moment fade away
When you wake up the morning and your heart tells you stay
Be my temporary angel forever
When forever comes our way

We can start this thing all over
Let tomorrow win its turn
Give back the past – it'll never last
Strike a match and watch it burn
Do you remember when I met you
What I whispered in your ear…

(Chorus)

Close the door and turn the lights down
Let it all come down right now

(Chorus x2)

. . .



Well I think it's about time baby
Have things ever been this good
I think it's gonna get a lot better
Don't you think we should
Well just for grins I bought you these flowers
Got a table at the best place in town
There's a shiny ring in my pocket
And its got me coming unwound

Yeah I got a secret
And I gotta tell ya
Those little things that you do and you don't even know
Got me thinking lately
Well maybe its time to jump start forever
Maybe its time to let the good times roll
Maybe its time we lay these two hearts down
Well maybe its time

Well I hope to God that I don't crumble
There's a pretty good chance I will
But its time for this ((NO IDEA WHAT HE SAYS HERE))
Sign the papers and close the deal

Yeah I got a secret
And I gotta tell ya
Those little things that you do and you don't even know
Got me thinking lately
Well maybe its time to jump start forever
And maybe its time to we let your daddy know
Maybe its time that we lay these two hearts down
Well maybe its time

It's time I said this in front of God and everyone
I don't intend to ever let you go

Yeah maybe its time to jump start forever
Maybe its time we lay these two hearts down
It's time we seal this love we've found
Well maybe its time

. . .



Well I ain't looking for an indication
Apologies or a consolation
Pull them up and burn the roots
Kill their horses and steal their boots
Mmm yeah sweet revenge

Went to the river some years ago
And it didn't do much to save my soul
But I found out my saving grace
Is a little closed heal in a warm dark place
Mmm hey I got sweet revenge

There's no second chance
There's no half way
The first time you're sorry and the second time you pay
You got your prayers when all else fails
Yeah sweet revenge

Well my left eye know what my right eye sees
There's a line down that appears to me
Find the place and hide awhile
Let ‘em dance in the devil's fire
Mmm hey I got sweet revenge

I ain't looking for an indication
Apologies or a consolation
Mmm hey I got sweet revenge
Sweet revenge
A sweet revenge
