England i/ˈɪŋɡlənd/ is a country that is part of the United Kingdom. It shares land borders with Scotland to the north and Wales to the west; the Irish Sea is to the north west, the Celtic Sea to the south west, while the North Sea to the east and the English Channel to the south separate it from continental Europe. Most of England comprises the central and southern part of the island of Great Britain in the North Atlantic. The country also includes over 100 smaller islands such as the Isles of Scilly and the Isle of Wight.
The area now called England was first inhabited by modern humans during the Upper Palaeolithic period, but it takes its name from the Angles, one of the Germanic tribes who settled during the 5th and 6th centuries. England became a unified state in AD 927, and since the Age of Discovery, which began during the 15th century, has had a significant cultural and legal impact on the wider world. The English language, the Anglican Church, and English law—the basis for the common law legal systems of many other countries around the world—developed in England, and the country's parliamentary system of government has been widely adopted by other nations. The Industrial Revolution began in 18th-century England, transforming its society into the world's first industrialised nation. England's Royal Society laid the foundations of modern experimental science.
Gary Tyler "Ty" England (born December 5, 1963) is an American country music singer and guitarist. Initially a member of Garth Brooks' band, England began his solo career in 1995, recording a self-titled debut album on RCA Records. A second album, Two Ways to Fall, followed in 1996. Three years later, he recorded Highways & Dance Halls under the name Tyler England on Capitol Records, and Alive and Well and Livin' the Dream came in 2007 on the independent Triple T label. England has also charted six singles on the country charts. His highest-charting single was his debut single, "Should've Asked Her Faster", a #3 hit in late 1995.
England began playing guitar during his youth. He sang with various bands in high school, and performed in his school chorus. While working at a coffee shop during his time as a student at Oklahoma State University, fellow student Garth Brooks met him and soon the two were roommates. They performed together until failing grades forced England to move back home. He did eventually get a degree in marketing, but he worked at an automotive paint store.

When life's little troubles
Block the road you're going down
Don't beat your head against the wall
Just find another way around
If the bad guys are winning
Everything you're working for
Maybe you should change
The way that you're keeping score
When the weight of the world's
About to run you in the ground
You don't have to stand for that
You just take it lying down
Kick back, relax
Just let your train of concentration
Go and jump the tracks
At the end of your rope
Just cut yourself some slack
If it's more than you can hack
Kick back
What's the sense of burning up
Your candle at both ends?
Burns twice as bright but half as long
And it won't burn again
Quit living for tomorrow
'Cause it never comes to pass
Even when you take it slow
Life's too fast
We're just spinning 'round
So tell me where's the rush
You only get one ride
So prop your feet up
Kick back, relax
Just let your train of concentration
Go and jump the tracks
At the end of your rope
Just cut yourself some slack
If it's more than you can hack
Kick back
When you find you're at the bottom
Of an uphill fight
Don't let your circumstances
Get you down right uptight
Kick back, relax
Just let your train of concentration
Go and jump the tracks
At the end of your rope
Just cut yourself some slack
If it's more than you can hack
Kick back
Hey, go catch yourself some bass
Kick back
She used to be my rosa amarilla
My little Mexicali tomatilla
But then one night I drank too much sangria
Woke up and found a note that said I'll see ya
Oh my baby no esta aqui no more
My baby no esta aqui no more
She left me with nada
Broke my heart like a piñata
My baby no esta aqui no more
Oh whoa whoa if you see her
Please please tell her that I need her
Well she said I was her number one vaquero
Her numero uno caballero
But had to hock my spurs and sombrero
'Cause when she left she took all my dinero
Oh my baby no esta aqui no more
My baby no esta aqui no more
She left me with nada
Broke my heart like a piñata
My baby no esta aqui no more
Oh whoa whoa if you see her
Please please tell her that I need her
Ain't no place to dance in town
Like the view when the sun goes down
All the good looking ladies
Come from miles around to meet
Fred saw Betty Lou Baker
For the fourteenth time
He said "I'm gonna tell her
How I feel tonight"
But he didn't know what hit him
When he couldn't even move or speak
Well it starts with "L"
And it ends with "E"
There's a couple short letters
Stuck in between
And it ain't too long but it always seems
To get him all choked up
Yeah it starts with "L"
And it ends with "E"
One tough syllable and he's home free
It's only four letters, go get her
Ain't nothin' better than love
Betty Lou's that girl
With the long blonde hair
Sittin' by herself in the cane back chair
Anybody lookin' would think
Nobody cared but then
Fred is frettin' over yonder
Sittin' in the corner if he's ever gonna
Get the nerve to use that word again
Well it starts with "L"
And it ends with "E"
There's a couple short letters
Stuck in between
And it ain't too long but it always seems
To get him all choked up
Yeah it starts with "L"
And it ends with "E"
One tough syllable and he's home free
It's only four letters, go get her
Ain't nothin' better than love
Fred finally got around
And found Betty Lou
Said "Would ya wanna take
A chance on a dance or two"
He didn't have a clue
What Betty Lou would do in his mind
And then Betty Lou stood up
And shook her head
For the longest moment
That room went dead
Until she said
"Fred honey it's about time"
Well it starts with "L"
And it ends with "E"
There's a couple short letters
Stuck in between
And it ain't too long but it always seems
To get him all choked up
Yeah it starts with "L"
And it ends with "E"
One tough syllable and he's home free
It's only four letters, go get her
Ain't nothin' better than love
It's only four letters, go get her
Ain't nothing better than love
You're welcome at this table but Mister here's a rule
No hard luck stories 'bout no broken hearted fools
I know where you're coming from, I just got back from there
Well, it's lonesome everywhere
It's that thing about a woman ain't it, don't say nothing else
If had all the answers I wouldn't be here myself
I know you're needing sympathy but I ain't got none to spare
You see it's lonesome everywhere
I wish I didn't have to tell you but you're on your own
That's the thing about lonesome, you got to do it alone
I've spent some time with lonesome and I've learned a thing or two
What you can't get over you just grow accustomed to
No matter where you run to it's gonna find you there
You see, it's lonesome everywhere
All day long at the factory
I can't do my job
It's not at all like me
Counting minutes on the clock
I walk around, my guard down
Like a love sick fool
All because of mystical sweet little kissable
Irresistible you
I've lost all my self control
I'm like someone I don't know
One taste of your sweet lips
And I just can't help myself
Girl, you got me where you want me
I'm where I wanna be too
All because of mystical sweet little kissable
Irresistible you
I vowed I'd never take another chance
With this heart of mine
I'd have no part of romance
After being burned last time
Now here I am, my guard down
Like I swore I wouldn't do
All because of mystical sweet little kissable
Irresistible you
I've lost all my self control
I'm like someone I don't know
One taste of your sweet lips
And I just can't help myself
Girl, you got me where you want me
I'm where I wanna be too
All because of mystical sweet little kissable
Irresistible you
I've lost all my self control
I'm like someone I don't know
One taste of your sweet lips
And I just can't help myself
Girl, you got me where you want me
I'm where I wanna be too
All because of mystical sweet little kissable
Irresistible you
All because of mystical sweet little kissable
Irresistible you
(Hugh Prestwood)
They had been together way too long
For him to start again
So he does most of his living in the past
Round the house he never says a word
Til something makes him ask
Is that you
Tappin' my window pane
Is that you
Or just a draft movin' that candle flame
Something round here keeps my heart
From breakin' right in two
Is that youIn the dark he rises from a dream
And takes a look around
Makin' sure there really isn't someone there
He could swear he heard her call his name
Quite as a prayer
Is that you
Takin' a step on that creaking stair
Is that you
Quietly counting a you brush your hair
Something round here keeps my heart
From breakin' right in two
Is that you
Jumped in the tuck and headed for Kansas
Mornin' found me in Port Arasas
Sippin' on rum in the warm Texas sun
I've never been good at keeping direction
And I believe schedules
Are one of life's worst infections
I've gotta be free cause I'd rather have nothing
Than a whole lot of somethin' I don't need
Yeah I'd rather have nothing
Then a whole lot of somethin'
That I don't suit the life that I lead
Commitments and strings and all that wealth brings
Just must be for some other breed
'Cause life ain't about the worries and doubts
That comes with the heartaches and greed
And I'd rather have nothing
Than a whole lot of something I don't need
I spent that evening in a tavern in town
With a bunch of my new friends my money brought 'round
And I told'em 'bout you
And all the hell we'd been through
Everyone there had a similar story
Years full of tears from all the heartaches and worry
And we all agreed
That we rather have nothin'
Then a whole lot of something we don't need
Yeah I'd rather have nothing
Then a whole lot of somethin'
That I don't suit the life that I lead
Commitments and strings and all that wealth brings
Just must be for some other breed
'Cause life ain't about the worries and doubts
That comes with the heartaches and greed
And I'd rather have nothing
Than a whole lot of something I don't need
They smiled and waved from the booth in the corner
As if to thank me for the drinks that I'd ordered
By the look in their eyes
They were feelin' their wine
So I eased on over and asked if they were alone
And what are the chances of us three headin' home
They just laughed at me
They said we'd rather have nothin'
Then a whole lot of something we don't need
Tow days past eighteen
He was waitin' for the bus in his army greens
Sat down in a booth a café there
Gave his order to the girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy but she gave him a smile
So he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talkin' to me I'm feelin' a little low
She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go
So they went down and sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend and I don't care
I've got no one to send my letters to
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
My love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter says a soldier's coming home
Well the letters came
>From an army camp
In California then Vietnam
And he talked about his heart
It might be love
And all of the things he was so scared of
Said when it's gettin kinda tough over here
I think about that day sittin' down at the pier
And close my eyes I see you pretty smile
Now don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
My love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone
When the letter says a soldier's coming home
One Friday night at a football game
The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang
The man said folks bow your heads
For the list of local Vietnam dead
Crying all alone under the stands
Was a piccolo player in the marching band
And one name read and no one really cared
But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair
I could think of a million reasons
That would help explain her leavin'
Say she need time alone
Just a standard case of restless
Or feelin' homesick for her Texas
But I'm the one that made her go
Even though
I didn't fill up her old pickup truck
Didn't pack her things or start it up
Didn't back it out the drive or gun the gas
I didn't steer the wheel all though the night
As that Chevy flew 'cross three state lines
Didn't do one thing to guide that ol' half-ton
Oh, but I'm the one that drove her to Dallas
Lookin' back on how I've done her
I think about it, it's no wonder
Just why she'd leave Tennessee
The way I let her leave here cryin'
I might as well have done the drivin'
There's no one here to blame but me
Even though
I didn't fill up her old pickup truck
Didn't pack her things or start it up
Didn't back it out the drive or gun the gas
I didn't steer the wheel all though the night
As that Chevy flew 'cross three state lines
Didn't do one thing to guide that ol' half-ton
Oh, but I'm the one that drove her to Dallas
A corner table, you breezed by
I threw a glance and you caught my eye
I've never seen your face before
But I say the light for sure
I knew I loved you
Right from the very beginning
I knew I loved you
And love would never ending
We danced together, you held me tight
It still felt good come morning light
I knew it would last from that moment on
First impressions are seldom wrong
I knew I loved you
Right from the very beginning
I knew I loved you
And love would never ending
You looked at me and I looked at you
I said the words and you said 'em too
Ooh, my dreams come true
Now one thing's certain
As time moves on some things change
So don't you worry how the cards may fall
You'll never need a crystal ball
The highway sign said the Georgia line
Was twenty miles away
So I thought I'd take a detour
And see the old home place
I could have found my way
With my eyes closed and in the dark
This ol' dirt road ain't on no map
I knew the way by heart
And the house still looks the same
Though the name on that ol' mail box has been changed
And a tractor turn the earth
That my grandpa and a mule had plowed up first
As the memories return and my eye began to burn
This ol' place has new faces in the fields
The rockin' chairs on the font porch
Move from a sudden wind
It's almost like my mom and dad
Were sittin' there again
I hear my brother callin' from
His favorite climbin' tree
But I'm just hearin' echoes
Of how it used to be
And the house still looks the same
Though the name on that ol' mail box has been changed
And a tractor turn the earth
That my grandpa and a mule had plowed up first
As the memories return and my eye began to burn
This ol' place has new faces in the fields
I was doing all right, I was minding my business
Thinking to myself what a great life this is
Cruising through the country, rockin' to the radio
I was through with love, all the fussing and fighting
It didn't seem worth the thunder and lightning
Made up my mind, I was living my life alone
Just when my head was getting clearer
Took a little glance in the rear view mirror
Did a double take 'cause I couldn't believe my eyes
She was right on my bumper in a drop top Mustang
Long hair flying pulling in the fast lane
'Cause I couldn't let her pass me by
Well you never can say never
When it comes right down to love
Even if you say forever
You won't ever ever get enough
Can't count the times I've been heart busted
Threw up my hands throughly disgusted
Swearing I was never gonna take that fall again
No sooner said then she turned the corner
Suddenly I'm a born again goner
Telling myself this one will never end
Well you never can say never
When it comes right down to love
Even if you say forever
You won't ever ever get enough
You won't ever ever get enough
It's raining cats and dogs
At a dinner outside of Wichita
Out of money, out of breath
I'm out here in the great Midwest
It ain't like you'll walk through that door
A thousand miles from Baltimore
But if you did, you'd see a man
He's drowning in the Promised Land
And all this time I've just been drifting
And I ain't got nothing left
I've been bent and I've been twisted
Into this state of common sense
My back is up against the wall
Hopin' that you'll take this call
Collect from Wichita
I left Dunston Road in a cloud of dust
Screaming black and furious
With slivers in my hand and feet
From pieces of our shattered dreams
In a bar in Acuna called Ma Crosby's
I found myself not feeling any pain
I told a 'Frisco girl I'd come for freedom
She said she'd only come to catch a train
We struck up some idle conversation
Traded all the troubles on our minds
One thing lead to another in the evening
And I fell in love again for my last time
Blame it on Mexico, if you need a reason
Say too much guitar music, tequila, salt and lime
Blame it on Mexico, but she's the reason
That I fell in love again for my last time
Daylight dawned and found me in Del Rio
In a rundown motel room as dark as hell
I felt all the pains of a morning after
And all alone as far as I could tell
Why she left I have no way of knowing
I guess she caught her train and that's a crime
She took everything I ever wanted
And I fell in love again for my last time
Blame it on Mexico, if you need a reason
Say too much guitar music, tequila, salt and lime
Blame it on Mexico, but she's the reason
That I fell in love again for my last time
She's an angel and I ain't
Lord knows she deserves a saint
And it don't take a genius to see
Her only bad habit is me
Why she loves me, I don't know
I can sure be a hard way to go
But I'm right here where she wants me to be
Her only bad habit is me
Most of the time, I'm walking the line
But sometimes I get out of hand
My baby scolds me and later on she holds me
She loves me and she understands
She's perfection, she's a ten
My baby never looks at other men
She has just one weakness I see
Her only bad habit is me
Most of the time, I'm walking the line
But sometimes I get out of hand
My baby scolds me and later on she holds me
She loves me and she understands
She's perfection, she's a ten
My baby never looks at other men
She has just one weakness I see
Her only bad habit is me
Her only bad habit is me
You never know 'till it happens to you
What really needing someone can do
You're never sure
'Till it takes you by storm
When a dream slips from your mind
And into your arms
This feeling's so strong
I just can't go wrong
You ask me how long
Will I love you
Forever and ever
Forever
Sometimes it's hard to believe what you feel
Imagination is so warm and real
But time can't lie
And it can not be seen
The more that I hold you
The more I believe
This feeling's so strong
I just can't go wrong
You ask me how long
Will I love you
Forever and ever
Forever
Mercy sakes look at her walk
She really makes them blue jeans talk
I can't take my eyes off of her
She's sure put together right
I wish I may, I wish I might
Get her to play in my back yard tonight, yes sir
If I had a swing like that
Anytime day or night
You know where I'd be at
Sashaying swaying back and forth
Man I'd never leave the porch
If I had a swing like that
Goodness gracious land of Goshen
Every move's a major motion
Rolls me over like an ocean wave
Man there oughta be a law
Beats anything I ever saw
I sure love to watch her walk away
If I had a swing like that
Anytime day or night
You know where I'd be at
Sashaying swaying back and forth
Man I'd never leave the porch
If I had a swing like that
I was one of those guys
Who though he could handle it all
Way too much pride
Head held up high standing tall
I was raised in a dusty old rodeo town
They said I was all around cowboy bound
So I set out after the dream
To answer the call
Now there's too many suitcases
Too many new places
Too many stranger's faces
Calling me their friend
If I could go my way
I'd go home today
There's too many highways
That never seems to end
Well it's a long way up
To the top of the hill
And if you cant pay the price
There's always someone who will
So you keep on running and you never back
It keeps getting harder to stay on track
And you wonder if anyone knows
How you really feel
Now there's too many suitcases
Too many new places
Too many stranger's faces
Calling me their friend
If I could go my way
I'd go home today
There's too many highways
That never seems to end
Lord I traded all I had for what could be
Now from this rundown motel room all I can see
Now there's too many suitcases
Too many new places
Too many stranger's faces
Calling me their friend
If I could go my way
I'd go home today
There's too many highways
That never seems to end
He said, "I know this ain't the time or place
But Lord I need to talk"
In a business suit in a corner booth
In a crowded little restaurant
We all tried not to listen
We all tried not to look
But a whole room full of customers
And the waitress and the cook
All stopped what we were doin'
When he bowed his head
In that silence we heard
Every word he said
"I been tryin' to do things my way
Down here on life's highway
Slippin', slidin', sideways
'Tween no way and nowhere
If I could only gain a foothold"
"Up there on your high road
Lord, if you hear me, help me
I'll do anything you tell me to
All I've got to offer you is this
Backslider's prayer"
Well the waitress made the first move
When she filled his coffee cup
She said, "You ain't alone here mister
You're speakin' for the rest of us"
I heard some scattered "Amens"
And a couple of "I've been there's"
Then things got back to normal
The dishes and the silverware
Were clangin' in the kitchen
Like an angel's band
As I took my place in line
To shake his hand
('Cause)
I been tryin' to do things my way
Down here on life's highway
Slippin', slidin', sideways
'Tween no way and nowhere
If I could only gain a foothold
Up there on your high road
Lord, if you hear me, help me
I'll do anything you tell me to
All I've got to offer you is this
Backslider's prayer
If I could only gain a foothold
Up there on your high road
Lord if you hear me, help me
I'll do anything you tell me to
All I've got to offer you is this
Backslider's prayer
I made you a list you can choose from
To let me know what you want from me
All you have to do is to choose one
It's as simple as A B C
I could be
A) lover
B) true
C) no one else but you
And if those choices aren't enough
I could be
D) evoted
E) ternally to your love
Or how about all of the above?
Any choice you make is the right one
But if indecision has got you stressed
I think I would go for the last one
'Cause that one covers your bases best
I could be
A) lover
B) true
C) no one else but you
And if those choices aren't enough
I could be
D) evoted
E) ternally to your love
Or how about all of the above?
This is the one time
No matter how you can choose
You can't lose
Nervous and scared I asked you for a dance
All of my buddies said, "Yeah, right, fat chance
She'll never go for a good ol' boy like you"
But somewhere between my stutter and stammer
Before I could ask you'd already answered
And to my surprise you said that you'd love to
And they all laughed when I stepped on your toes
But they got quiet when you moved in close
They lost their smiles
When they knew they lost their chance
My two left feet couldn't do a right thing
I looked like a fool but I felt like a king
Oh, they got a laugh
But look who got the last dance
Nervous and scared after sayin', "I Do"
All of my buddies made fun of the new groom
As they stood in line waiting to kiss the bride
They kept us apart dancing with you all night long
But when the band started into their last song
I was the one standing by your side
And they all laughed when I stepped on your toes
But they got quiet when you moved in close
They lost their smiles
When they knew they lost their chance
My two left feet couldn't do a right thing
I looked like a fool but I felt like a king
Oh, they got a laugh
But look who got the last dance
Oh, they got a laugh
But look who got the last dance
I know you were expecting teardrops when you told me
'Bout your somebody else, I hope I didn't disappoint you
By taking it all so well and if I don't seem as broken hearted
As you thought I should be, it's just the blues ain't news to me
I've got it down being down, I knew my way around
I've shed my shear of tears, I've seen enough breaking up
Seems like it taking up most of adult years
Yes, I'm familiar with the situation, it's my semi occupation
I said the blues ain't news to me
It's nice to know you're worried about me, concerned
About the way I feel, well it's just another day at the office, baby
It really ain't no big deal, now I've almost got it to a science
They oughta give me a degree, it's just the blues ain't news to me
I've got it down being down, I knew my way around
I've shed my shear of tears, I've seen enough breaking up
Seems like it taking up most of adult years
Yes, I'm familiar with the situation, it's my semi occupation
I said the blues ain't news to me
So if I'm quite devastated, don't take it too personally
It's just the blues ain't news to me
You must forgive me if I stare
I've never seen a walking talking answered prayer
Honey, it's amazing that you're standing here
I guess God got tired of me bending his ear
Come in and set that suitcase down
It looks like you and I got lost and found
No need to be sorry, don't apologize
You don't need to ask it, just look in my eyes
Sure, I still feel the same
I still keep the flame, I still call your name
My love does endure
Sure, we can try again
Honey, you just move on in
I have always been sure
It was like double deja vu
When you came in I saw me come in too
Come in from the rain, come in from the blue
I've been missing me as much as I've been missing you
Sure, I still feel the same
I still keep the flame, I still call your name
My love does endure
Sure, we can try again
Honey, you just move on in
I have always been sure
As the river's finding it's way to the sea
Sure as this road is winding towards eternity
My heart's the rock of ages about you and me
Sure, I still feel the same
I still keep the flame, I still call your name
My love does endure
Sure, we can try again
Honey you just move on in
I have always been sure
(Hugh Prestwood)
Her heart could tell at a glance
She would be falling for him
She knows she's taking a chance
But still goes out on a limb
She knows he could be for real
Or he could be in disguise
Although she may have a heart on fire
She don't have smoke in her eyes
She learned a long time ago
That love has no guarantees
She knows how warm it can glow
She knows how hard it can freeze
She knows that on down the line
They could be waving good-byes
Although she may have a heart on fire
She don't have smoke in her eyesWell she used to say that taking
Was what hearts were all about
'Til the day hers was breaking
And the love inside poured out
Somewhere there's peace on this Earth
Somewhere there's moon up above
Somebody's got to be first
To say they're falling in love
She won't be sorry she did
No what she replies
Although she may have a heart on fire
She don't have smoke in her eyes
In a little dance hall just outside of dallas
I dropped my drink when she came walking by
By the time I got a grip she slipped through my fingertips
And left me with my big mouth open wide
I should've asked her faster but I waited too long
In a red hot minute like a flash she was gone
I didn't get her number, I never got her name
A natural disaster, I should've asked her faster
She was talking to some cowboy in the corner
My one last chance to ask her on the floor
And just when I got the nerve, I got just what I deserve
As I watched him waltzing her right out the door
I should've asked her faster but I waited too long
In a red hot minute like a flash she was gone
I didn't get her number, I never got her name
A natural disaster, I should've asked her faster
Well, there she goes, I just missed
Don't take no rocket scientist
To figure out, when I go home
I'll be there all alone
I should've asked her faster but I waited too long
In a red hot minute like a flash she was gone
I didn't get her number, I never got her name
A natural disaster, I should've asked her faster
We had a fight and I walked out
Don't recall just what we fought about
Before her tears could hit the ground
A stranger came to town
Now he's got her thinkin' that it's all my fault
She's convinced I never cared at all
She won't even take my calls
Now my heart's against the wall
There's only one reason I keep hinging on
Yeah she's gonna miss me when he's gone
Well people says he looks a lot like me
They even say this whole thing might be
Just an act she can't see through
Now he won't love her like I do
I never knew the night were so long
Yeah she's gonna miss me when he's gone
Someday he's bound
To catch the wind
And he'll blow away
Just like he blew in
And I've got to find her
And tell her she's wrong
Yeah she's gonna miss me when he's gone
Well I woke up cold
Starin' at the ceiling
Can't get back to sleep
Thinkin' how she left me cryin'
With broken memories
I see her face in all my dreams
Just won't let me be
Whoa I'd like to be her honey
But she don't care about me
Well I woke up cold
Starin' at another
I could see it in my face
Lord I try but I cant never
Let nobody take her place
Now I can't go on much longer
Dreamin' in misery
Whoa I'd like to be her honey
But she don't care about me
Well gone so long
And all alone
I'm too far gone to try
With all them scenes
And all them dreams
Still livin' in my mind
Well I go downtown
And drink my liquor
My tortured mind's so numb
But drunk and blind
She gets there quicker
The farther away I run
Now when I die my tangled soul
Will finally be set free
Whoa I'd like to be her honey
But she don't care about me
Daddy worked the land every day of his life
Grandpa did too till the day that he died
Mama had a job at the Dairy Queen
She's the hardest workin' woman I ever seen
Grandpa taught me 'bout the golden rule
Daddy said he'd skin me if I dropped out of school
They taught me how to swim in a Tennessee pond
And how to throw a steer and keep my Stetson on
Well they taught me how to dance and how to have fun
I'm a redneck son of a redneck son
I was winkin' at the ladies on the day I was born
I was kissin' and huggin' at the age of four
Got my first taste of heaven on the Macadoo farm
Kissin' Marylow Macadoo behind the barn
Grandpa taught me 'bout the golden rule
Daddy said he'd skin me if I dropped out of school
They taught me how to swim in a Tennessee pond
And how to throw a steer and keep my Stetson on
Well they taught me how to dance and how to have fun
I'm a redneck son of a redneck son
I never started any trouble but I never backed down
Got a clean reputation in this dirty old town
I'm keepin' my nose where it ought to be
I never missed church so it never missed me
Hey, heart I'm falling in love
The writing's on the wall
This time try to remember
There's two ways to fall
I've fallen in, I've fallen out
I've had days when I've had my doubts
Thought it was something I could do without
But here I go again
Hey, heart I'm falling in love
The writing's on the wall
This time try to remember
There's two ways to fall
A first kiss, a last goodbye
A time to laugh and a time to cry
It's no secret after all
There's two ways to fall
I guess you saw us holding hands
Heard me mention the word 'Romance'
Yeah, I know, I'm taking a chance
But here I go again
Hey, heart I'm falling in love
The writing's on the wall
This time try to remember
There's two ways to fall
It's no secret after all
There's two ways to fall

You occupy your time by cryin' a lot
'Cause miss what you had
And hate what you ain't got
No one to hold you anymore, let alone talk to
Well, I've got news for you
There'll be another day to love
A smile to wake up to
There'll somebody else's touch
That'll send chills all over you
Take it from an old friend
Who's walk in the same shoes
You'll find somebody new
You think you've lost your mind
Nothin' matters anymore
The telephone don't ring
There's no knock on your door
You feel like you want to dieBut what good would it do
Well I've got news
There'll be another day to love
A smile to wake up to
There'll somebody else's touch
That'll send chills all over you

You occupy your time by cryin' a lot
'Cause miss what you had
And hate what you ain't got

There'll somebody else's touch that'll send chills all over you
Take it from an old friend who's walk in the same shoes
You'll find somebody new
Yeah, she's the one
The one I told you all about
Yeah, it was serious but it was long ago
She just might walk over here
And give me a kiss for old times
But don't you worry, dear
Old times next to you can never come close
I'll take today over yesterday, any day
I'll take lyin' in your arms tonight
Over and above any love I've known
Memories may find me
But they'll always be behind me
I'll take today over yesterday, any day
I'd be lyin' if I tried to tell you now
That I never loved her
And she doesn't ever cross my mind
But that was yesterday
And, baby, I don't wanna go back
Here is where I'm gonna stay
With you in each tomorrow of my life
I'll take today over yesterday, any day
I'll take lyin' in your arms tonight
Over and above any love I've known
Memories may find me
But they'll always be behind me
I'll take today over yesterday, any day
Memories may find me
But they'll always be behind me
I'll take today over yesterday, any day
I'll take today over yesterday, any day
