C'mon! lyrics - keith anderson
[Verse 1]
I've got diesel on my sleeves,
Been plowin' up a cloud of dust
I just called my buddy steve,
He's been haulin' hay from dawn til dusk!
And cotton-pickin'
Ricky said he's ready for a cold beer
Jimmy called from the party,
Said "Get it in gear,
We got longnecks and long legs waiting for you over here!"
[Chorus]
C'mon C'mon We've been knuckle-bustin back breakin' head-achin' all week long
C'mon yeah, we're looking for some lovin' and a sip of something strong
Gonna get it right even if it's wrong
We gotta get it 'for the gettin's gone
C'mon C'mon
[Verse 2]
Drew brought his home brew a little bit'll get you lit up
And the twins are in from school lookin' good in their six inch pumps
Tommy's tanked up spittin' game like an auctioneer
And that rockin' little red head whispered in my ear,
"Let's go walkin' through the riverbed and get outta here!"
[Chorus 2x]
I've got diesel on my sleeves,
Been plowin' up a cloud of dust
I just called my buddy steve,
He's been haulin' hay from dawn til dusk!
And cotton-pickin'
Ricky said he's ready for a cold beer
Jimmy called from the party,
Said "Get it in gear,
We got longnecks and long legs waiting for you over here!"
[Chorus]
C'mon C'mon We've been knuckle-bustin back breakin' head-achin' all week long
C'mon yeah, we're looking for some lovin' and a sip of something strong
Gonna get it right even if it's wrong
We gotta get it 'for the gettin's gone
C'mon C'mon
[Verse 2]
Drew brought his home brew a little bit'll get you lit up
And the twins are in from school lookin' good in their six inch pumps
Tommy's tanked up spittin' game like an auctioneer
And that rockin' little red head whispered in my ear,
"Let's go walkin' through the riverbed and get outta here!"
[Chorus 2x]
Break My Heart lyrics - keith anderson
I've got a half o' jar of moonshine, some whiskey and some cheap wine
Leftover form the last time that you said your last goodbye
That's what you want, bring it on
And a big ol' stack of leavin' songs just waitin' to be turned back on
And I'll crank them up and sing along the second that your gone
So, go ahead, bring it on
[CHORUS:]
Break my yeah, shoot me down, I know I can take it now
Don't wait any longer, it'll only make me stronger
Break my heart, get it over with, get on with your goodbye kiss
Girl it's now or never 'cause its the last time that you'll break my heart
That little blond down at the club, the one you're so jealous of
Well late last night she called me up and heard that we're breaking up
That's what you want, bring it on
Now my buddies that you hated, they always knew we wouldn't make it
So they'r taking me to Vegas and I hate to keep 'em waitin'
Go ahead, bring it on
[REPEAT CHORUS:]
Break my yeah, shoot me down, I know I can take it now
Don't wait any longer, it'll only make me stronger
Break my heart, get it over with, get on with your goodbye kiss
Girl it's now or never 'cause its the last time that you'll break my heart
Do what you're gotta do
I guess somebody's dotta lose
But I'll get over you
[REPEAT CHORUS:]
Break my yeah, shoot me down, I know I can take it now
Don't wait any longer, it'll only make me stronger
Break my heart, get it over with, get on with your goodbye kiss
Girl it's now or never 'cause its the last time that you'll break my heart
Leftover form the last time that you said your last goodbye
That's what you want, bring it on
And a big ol' stack of leavin' songs just waitin' to be turned back on
And I'll crank them up and sing along the second that your gone

Somebody Needs A Hug lyrics - keith anderson
I think it's safe to say you've had a bad day
And somethin' even tells me maybe I should stay away
But I can't, I'm livin' dangerously
Baby, call me crazy, I think I know what you need
Girl, I've got your remedy
[Chorus]
Somebody needs a hug
A little personal attention
Some good ol' lovin' and affection
Yeah, I talkin' full body, good Lord Almighty
Whooo, c'mon and get you some
You need to be wrapped up
Snug as a bug in a rug
A big ol' teddy bear squeeze
Where you can barely breathe
Somebody needs a hug
I see you're not convinced, you're still on defense
And I'd be wise to disappear if I had any sense
But I don't, no obviously
I think I can fix it, baby, don't resist it
Darlin, it's easy to see
[Repeat Chorus]
You start to smile and you're bitin' your lip
And girl I know what that means
You're walkin' over, you're gettin' closer
Looks like you finally see
[Repeat Chorus]
And somethin' even tells me maybe I should stay away
But I can't, I'm livin' dangerously
Baby, call me crazy, I think I know what you need
Girl, I've got your remedy
[Chorus]
Somebody needs a hug
A little personal attention
Some good ol' lovin' and affection
Yeah, I talkin' full body, good Lord Almighty
Whooo, c'mon and get you some
You need to be wrapped up
Snug as a bug in a rug
A big ol' teddy bear squeeze
Where you can barely breathe
Somebody needs a hug
I see you're not convinced, you're still on defense
And I'd be wise to disappear if I had any sense
But I don't, no obviously
I think I can fix it, baby, don't resist it
Darlin, it's easy to see
[Repeat Chorus]
You start to smile and you're bitin' your lip
And girl I know what that means
You're walkin' over, you're gettin' closer
Looks like you finally see
[Repeat Chorus]
She Could've Been Mine lyrics - keith anderson
I remember summer 1993
She was tall and blonde and tan and man, she was all in love with me
She started talkin' 'bout our future and it scared me half to death
So I ran away but to this day her memory takes my breath
You should've seen her smile
You should've heard her laugh
And oh the way her eyes would dance
When she brushed her hair back
[Chorus]
She could've been mine
She would've been in another place and time
And now and then I go there in my mind
She would've been
She should've been
She could've been mine
Home for the holidays, a friend's party New Year's Eve
I turned around and found familiar blue eyes staring back at me
A little girl came runnin' up and took her by the hand
And a memory in miniature said, "Mommy, who's that man?"
You should've seen her little smile
You should've heard her little laugh
Oh the way her eyes just danced
When she brushed her hair back
[Repeat Chorus]
She was tall and blonde and tan and man, she was all in love with me
She started talkin' 'bout our future and it scared me half to death
So I ran away but to this day her memory takes my breath
You should've seen her smile
You should've heard her laugh
And oh the way her eyes would dance
When she brushed her hair back
[Chorus]
She could've been mine
She would've been in another place and time
And now and then I go there in my mind
She would've been
She should've been
She could've been mine
Home for the holidays, a friend's party New Year's Eve
I turned around and found familiar blue eyes staring back at me
A little girl came runnin' up and took her by the hand
And a memory in miniature said, "Mommy, who's that man?"
You should've seen her little smile
You should've heard her little laugh
Oh the way her eyes just danced
When she brushed her hair back
[Repeat Chorus]
Sunday Morning In America lyrics - keith anderson
[Verse 1]
She dresses up her children and herds them to the car, drives down to the mega-church and can't find a place to park.
Then she feels a little guilty when she takes his name in vein,
so she folds her last two dollars and she drops them in the plate, its morning Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America.
[Verse 2]
His back is out of kilter from sleepin on concrete and he'd like to have some breakfast but he'll trade it for a drink,
those early morning joggers their quick to pass him by and the ones that drop a dollar don't they don't dare look him in the eye.
Another Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America. Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America.
[Chorus:]
Smell the eggs and bacon, hear the church bells ring, cheerleaders shakin on a big screen TV,
there's Winnebago's and boats on the lake and a red head, freckled face blows out the candles on his birthday cake.
Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America.
[Verse 3]
He's hunkered in a bunker with a rifle in his hand, layin his life on the line for every inch of sand.
He dreamin about that freedom that he's been fightin for and the arms that will wrap around him
when he comes walkin through that door, some Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America.
Yea Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America.
[Chorus:]
Smell the eggs and bacon, hear the church bells ring, cheerleaders shakin on a big screen TV,
there's Winnebago's and boats on the lake and a red head, freckled face blows out the candles on his birthday cake.
Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America.
Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America.
[Bridge]
Now I know it aint perfect, there's a lot of things wrong in America,
I thank God for those who layed down their lives to call this place my home.
[Chorus 2:]
Smell the eggs and bacon, hear the church bells ring, cheerleaders shakin on a 57 inch big screen TV,
there's trucks on the highway and sail boats on the lake and a red head, freckled face blows out the candles on his birthday cake.
Sunday morning, yea Sunday morning in America.
Its Sunday morning in America, beautiful Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America.
She dresses up her children and herds them to the car, drives down to the mega-church and can't find a place to park.
Then she feels a little guilty when she takes his name in vein,
so she folds her last two dollars and she drops them in the plate, its morning Sunday morning, Sunday morning in America.

I Still Miss You lyrics - keith anderson
I've changed the presets to my truck,
So those old songs don't sneak up.
But they still find me
And remind me
Yeah you come back that easy.
I've tries restaurants I've never been to
Ordered new things off the menu
That i never tried
'Cause you didn't like,
but two drinks in and you're by my side
[Chorus:]
I've talked to friends
Talked to myself
Talked to god
I prayed like hell
But i still miss you
I tried sober I tried drinkin'
I've been strong and I've been weak
But I still miss you.
I've done everything move on like I'm supposed to
I'd give anything for one more minute with you
I still miss you
I still miss you baby
I never knew til you were gone
How many pages you were on
It never ends I keep turning
And line after line and you are there again

I Ain't Hurtin' Nobody But Me lyrics - keith anderson
You'll find me here
From happy hour to closing time
The jukebox is playing the same old song
A hundred times
Bartender looks at me
With the saddest eyes
When I say 'Keep 'em coming, 'till I'm stumbling
The way you did last night'
I ain't hurting nobody but me
Ain't no one wondering when I'm coming home
Ain't nowhere I gotta be
The only heart I'm breaking
Is the broken one inside of me
So take my keys
And pour my drink
But let me be
Cause I ain't hurting nobody but me
There was a time, so many times
I caused her pain
Saw her cry
But I closed my eyes and I wouldn't change
And I became all those things that now I hate
I swore I'd never hurt another
Since the day she left
I ain't huting nobody but me
Ain't no one wondering when I'm coming home
Ain't no where I gotta be
The only heart I'm breaking
Is the broken one inside of me
So take my keys
And pour my drink
But let me be
Cause I ain't hurting nobody but me
I ain't hurting nobody but me
From happy hour to closing time
The jukebox is playing the same old song
A hundred times
Bartender looks at me
With the saddest eyes
When I say 'Keep 'em coming, 'till I'm stumbling
The way you did last night'
I ain't hurting nobody but me
Ain't no one wondering when I'm coming home
Ain't nowhere I gotta be
The only heart I'm breaking
Is the broken one inside of me
So take my keys
And pour my drink
But let me be
Cause I ain't hurting nobody but me
There was a time, so many times
I caused her pain
Saw her cry
But I closed my eyes and I wouldn't change
And I became all those things that now I hate
I swore I'd never hurt another
Since the day she left
I ain't huting nobody but me
Ain't no one wondering when I'm coming home
Ain't no where I gotta be
The only heart I'm breaking
Is the broken one inside of me
So take my keys
And pour my drink
But let me be
Cause I ain't hurting nobody but me
I ain't hurting nobody but me
Adaliene lyrics - keith anderson
The first naked lady I ever saw,
Was that tattoo on my uncle's arm.
On daddy's farm that summer he drove up,
And helped us build that barn.
He rolled up his sleeves,
His arms were lean.
He flexed and made her dance for me.
I turned red and we both laughed.
And hoped my daddy didn't see.
He got all teary-eyed and serious,
When I asked him who she was.
That's Adaliene,
In '63.
I wish you could have met her,
She was everything to me.
Hear it all the time,
Love at first sight.
When I saw that girl I knew I had to love her all my life.
I was just 19 when I got this thing,
And I swear that it still stings,
Everytime I think about my Adaliene.
Get back to work you lazy bums,
My daddy joked,
He's lying son.
Whatever it is he said he did,
You can best believe he's never done.
Mom yelled hey guys,
It's supper time.
Wipe off your feet and wash your hands.
And as we did I said Hey dad,
You ever seen that tattoo dance?
He got all teary-eyed and serious,
He shook his head and said,
Yeah I remember her.
That's Adaliene.
In '63
First time I ever saw your uncle take a drink.
Hear it all the time,
Love at first sight.
When I saw her in his arms I knew he'd love her all his life.
I was 24 in your Grandpa's Ford,
And I paid for all that ink.
Yeah I know all about that Adaliene.
I knew her well,
Hell, all he ever talked about from the moment that he fell
Were those wedding bells,
That house up on the hill.
And how empty and how lonely life would be,
Without his Adaliene.
Hear it all the time,
Love at first sight.
When I saw that girl I knew I'd have to love her all my life.
I was just 19 when I got this thing,
And I swear that it still stings,
Everytime I think about my Adaliene.
Was that tattoo on my uncle's arm.
On daddy's farm that summer he drove up,
And helped us build that barn.

Hear it all the time,

Lost In This Moment lyrics - keith anderson
I see your momma and the candles and the tears and roses
I see your daddy walk his daughter down the aisle
My knees starts to tremble as I tell the preacher
'Don't she look beautiful tonight?'
All the wonderful words in my head
I been thinking
You kinow I wanna say them all just right
I lift your veil and angels start singing
Such a heavenly sound
Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed
My feelings so absolute
There's no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waited my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you
I smell the jasmine floating through the air like a love song
Watch my words draw sweet tears from your eyes
We bow our heads as the preacher talks to Jesus
'Please bless this brand new life'
Yeah
Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed
My feelings so absolute
There's no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waited my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you
Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed
My feelings so absolute
There's no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waited my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you
Lost in the moment
In this moment with you
Yeah
Lost in this moment with you
I see your daddy walk his daughter down the aisle
My knees starts to tremble as I tell the preacher
'Don't she look beautiful tonight?'
All the wonderful words in my head
I been thinking
You kinow I wanna say them all just right
I lift your veil and angels start singing
Such a heavenly sound
Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed
My feelings so absolute
There's no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waited my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you
I smell the jasmine floating through the air like a love song
Watch my words draw sweet tears from your eyes
We bow our heads as the preacher talks to Jesus
'Please bless this brand new life'
Yeah
Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed
My feelings so absolute
There's no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waited my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you
Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed
My feelings so absolute
There's no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waited my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you
Lost in the moment
In this moment with you
Yeah
Lost in this moment with you
Closest I've Ever Been lyrics - keith anderson
Closest I've ever been to meetin' Jesus was when
Me and Bobby Pinson put up our pink slips on Blue Hole Road
My needle showin' ninety, I flew right by him
Lighting fast 'til I had a bad Goodyear blow
That ol' Chevy rolled and rolled and I know
Heaven must've heart the words beneath my breath and I
Thank God I ain't there yet
[Chorus:]
That's the closest I've ever been
To never seein' my momma again
Found out quick how precious life is
Drive my new truck a little slower than I did
That's the smallest I've ever felt
That's the furthest I've ever fell
Not too far to find out how life ends
That's the closest I've ever been
Closest I've ever been to bein' the devil's friend was when
Shelly gave in to me and him down by the river
I gave her my heart and my jacket, still ain't got 'em back yet
She left me hurtin' and searchin' for love or liquor or whatever
Quicker than I could say sin I slipped further in than I was plannin'
I never shook the devil's hand, but I drank his whiskey and I loved his women
[2nd Chorus:]
That's the closest I've ever been
To tellin' God to hell with Him
Goin' down in flames, and layin' the blame
Why would He ever let her walk away
That's the smallest I've ever felt
That's the furthest I've ever fell
But not too far for God to forgive
And I thank God that's the closest I've ever been
Got it all behind me and every day I'm findin'
Another way to be the best man I can
And I'm the closest I've ever been
Closest I've ever been, closest I've ever been
Me and Bobby Pinson put up our pink slips on Blue Hole Road
My needle showin' ninety, I flew right by him
Lighting fast 'til I had a bad Goodyear blow
That ol' Chevy rolled and rolled and I know
Heaven must've heart the words beneath my breath and I
Thank God I ain't there yet
[Chorus:]
That's the closest I've ever been
To never seein' my momma again
Found out quick how precious life is
Drive my new truck a little slower than I did
That's the smallest I've ever felt
That's the furthest I've ever fell
Not too far to find out how life ends
That's the closest I've ever been
Closest I've ever been to bein' the devil's friend was when
Shelly gave in to me and him down by the river
I gave her my heart and my jacket, still ain't got 'em back yet
She left me hurtin' and searchin' for love or liquor or whatever
Quicker than I could say sin I slipped further in than I was plannin'
I never shook the devil's hand, but I drank his whiskey and I loved his women
[2nd Chorus:]
That's the closest I've ever been
To tellin' God to hell with Him
Goin' down in flames, and layin' the blame
Why would He ever let her walk away
That's the smallest I've ever felt
That's the furthest I've ever fell
But not too far for God to forgive
And I thank God that's the closest I've ever been
Got it all behind me and every day I'm findin'
Another way to be the best man I can
And I'm the closest I've ever been
Closest I've ever been, closest I've ever been
Three Chord Country And American Rock & Roll lyrics - keith anderson
Yeah...
How 'bout a little fiddle?
That sounds good
Cut of Wranglers an' bikini's on the Rarrow(?) Bridge
Dive into the river then climb up an' jump again
When the sun is settin' we head down to the beer barn
Grab a couple keggers then we roll out to the farm
Where's the band now?
Park our pick-ups in a circle
Let the tailgates down
Laugh while everybody's gettin' drunk as Cooter Brown
Crankin' everything from Brooks & Dunn to Areosmith
Out here in the country that's the way we get our kicks
Yeah...
Like ta' keep in simple y'all
In everything we do
Got our own kind of laid back livin'
If you don't mind
Thank you
We love the kind of music
You can feel down in your soul
Give us Three Chord Country
And American Rock & Roll
We like to pick our guitars with the neighbors all night long
Sip on Granny's moonshine as we sing Bocephus songs
Listen to ol' Grandad preach about Red, White, An' Blue
An' how he kicked
Hitler's ass in 1942
Yeah...
Like ta' keep in simple y'all
In everything we do
Got our own kind of laid back livin'
If you don't mind
Thank you
We love the kind of music
You can feel down in your soul
Give us Three Chord Country
And American Rock & Roll
Old dogs
An' watermelon wine
Does us just fine
Little pink houses
An' I walk the line
It doesn't take much
Ta' have ourselves a good time
Yeah...
Like ta' keep in simple y'all
In everything we do
Got our own kind of laid back livin'
If you don't mind
Thank you
We love the kind of music
You can feel down in your soul
Give us Three Chord Country
And American Rock & Roll
Yeah...
Give Three Chord Country...
And American Rock & Roll...
Tell me now...
Does fortworth ever cross your mind, now darling
I'm wanted dead or alive...

Podunk lyrics - keith anderson
Same Saturday night, same ol' crowd
Draggin' Main to the Safeway then turn back around
'Til curfew and then head down to the river's edge and get drunk
Ain't nothing new what else you gonna do out in Podunk
Well I knew this six-string was my ticket out
No flashin' red light was gonna slow me down
18 years old everything that I owned in the back of that truck
I put a dip in my mouth and I headed straight out outta Podunk
[1st Chorus:]
Goodgye, daddy looked me in the eye said go where you gotta go
But don't forget to call home
And momma cried keep Jesus in your life and I hugged her one last time
And then I headed down the roadin a dusty cloud of smoke
Out of Podunk
[Bridge:]
A lot of years gone by showin' on my face
Nothing in this life that time hasn't changed
I chased a lot of dreams and some of them came true
Ain't it funny how the very place I ran from is the place I'm runnin' to
Another Saturday night singin' to the same ol' crowd
Still playin this six-string but things are different nowI met one
of those girls turn your whole world around girls
And wouldn't you know it
We got our eyes on a house 'bout a hundred miles south
Out in Podunk
[2nd Chorus:]
Goodbye, her daddy looked me in the eye
And said go where you gotta go son but don't forget to call home
And her momma cried sadi keep Jesus in your life and we hugged her one last time
Then we headed down the road to start a family of our own
Out in Podunk
[Repeat 2nd Chorus 2x]
Draggin' Main to the Safeway then turn back around
'Til curfew and then head down to the river's edge and get drunk
Ain't nothing new what else you gonna do out in Podunk
Well I knew this six-string was my ticket out
No flashin' red light was gonna slow me down
18 years old everything that I owned in the back of that truck
I put a dip in my mouth and I headed straight out outta Podunk
[1st Chorus:]
Goodgye, daddy looked me in the eye said go where you gotta go
But don't forget to call home
And momma cried keep Jesus in your life and I hugged her one last time
And then I headed down the roadin a dusty cloud of smoke
Out of Podunk
[Bridge:]
A lot of years gone by showin' on my face
Nothing in this life that time hasn't changed
I chased a lot of dreams and some of them came true
Ain't it funny how the very place I ran from is the place I'm runnin' to
Another Saturday night singin' to the same ol' crowd
Still playin this six-string but things are different nowI met one
