Fifteen minutes left to throw me together
For mister right now, not mister forever Don't know why I even try when I know how it ends Looking like another: "maybe we could be friends." I've been leaving it up to fate It's my life, so it's mine to make [Chorus] I ain't settling for just getting by I've had enough so-so for the rest of my life Tired of shooting too low, so raise the bar high Just enough ain't enough this time I ain't settling for anything less than everything, yeah With some good red wine and my brand new shoes Gonna dance up a blue streak around my living room Take a chance on love and try how it feels With my heart wide open, now you know I will Find what it means to be the girl Change her mind and change her world [Chorus] I ain't settling for just getting by I've had enough so-so for the rest of my life Tired of shooting too low, so raise the bar high Just not giving up this time I ain't settling for just getting by I've had enough so-so for the rest of my life Tired of shooting too low, so raise the bar high I ain't settling, no, no, no, no, no, no So raise the bar high |

There's a place I like to go
Cherry bombs and cherry wine Just past the Texaco Down on the county line Beer cans and cemeteries Spanish moss on a welcome sign Catch a buzz, we all get scary Down on the county line [Chorus] Out where your troubles can't find you Out where you leave them all behind Out where the moons shines sweetly Won't you meet me Down on the county line? Kettle corn and 4-H fairs Pink slips and white wall tires Bet you twenty I'll beat you there Down on the county line First love and football wars French kiss and battle prize Further then I've been before Down on the county line [Chorus] All the churchyards and white-wash fences All the widows and teenage brides They're all searching for redemption They're all looking for a sign Down on the county line (Down on the county line) Down on the county line (Down on the county line) Down on the county line The best things in life are free It's been right here all the time It's everything that's home to me Down on the county line [Chorus] Out where your troubles can't find ya Out where we have a real good time Out where the moon shines sweetly Won't you meet me Down on the county line? (Down on the county line) Down on the county line (Down on the county line) Down on the county line |

I've packed a cooler and a change of clothes Let's jump and see how far it goes You got mt heart and your daddy's boat We got all night to make it float We could sit on the shore, we could just be friends Or we could jump in (chorus) Whole world could change in a minute Just one kiss could stop this spring We could think it thought But I don't want to, if you don't want to We could keep things just he same Leave here the way we came, with nothing to lose But I don't want to, if you don't want to I got your ring around my neck And a couple of night I don't regret Toy got a dream of a degree And a shirt that smells like me Yeah we both got dreams, we could chase alone Or we could make our own (Chorus) Whole world could change in a minute Just one kiss could stop this spring We could think it thought But I don't want to, if you don't want to We could keep things just he same Leave here the way we came, with nothing to lose But I don't want to, if you don't want to (Bridge) Never waste another day Wonderin' what you threw away Holdin me, holdin you I don't want to, if you don't want to (Refrain) We could keep things just the same Leave here the way we came, with nothing to lose But I don't want to if you don't want to, but I want to I want you

Grew up on a tight rope
Learned to smile even when I was falling down Daddy had a hard hand, and Mama always had hope And me and my sister couldn't wait to get out Fell in love out of college Good man for a bad year Visions of sugarplums and boxes of roses All my girlfriends cried, and I was outta here [Chorus] Whoa, whoa, everybody's dreaming big Whoa, whoa, everybody's just getting by That's how it goes in every day America A little town with a great big life Joey stares at a trophy Took us all the way to state back in '85 Shining moment and a dusty reminder He felt so scared, never felt so alive But now there's toys in the backyard Daddy's boys; you know how they like to fight When they sleep, he swears they're angels He wouldn't trade a day for all those Friday nights [Chorus] We can laugh We can cry We're all just looking for the reasons why In a place of dark can we see the light Either way it'll be alright [Chorus:Repeat x2] A little town with a great big life |

Cowboys ride into sunsets
The good guy always gets the girl Cinderella has just fit The glass slipper that changed her world We all know the stories We all know the fairy tales We all get the glory Of making it for ourselves [Chorus] From the beginning We're all looking for a happy ending Every dream of winning Every love we been in Right from the beginning We're looking for a happy ending We come here with nothing And take it with us the day we leave The first and last breath don't matter It's all the ones that are in between It's the reason for living It's the reason the caged bird sings It's why we sit in the movies All the way to the closing scene [Chorus] And for all the dreams who have come and gone Who have reached for the stars, who have overcome You're the hope, you're the wish, you're the truth Baby, here's the proof Baby's born in the ghetto Baby's born with a silver spoon One tells his mama, "I'll have a dream." One tells his mama, "I'll walk the moon." [Chorus: x2] |

It's written on our palms, and
It's written on our hearts It's written in our songs, and It's written in the stars Sometimes all we can do Is stand up tall When they're standing in line Just to watch us fall [Chorus] Whoa We can't forget, these are the days Whoa, don't be afraid We can't forget, these are the days Well, we got each other, and that's all we need From here on out it's just you and me Two hometown hearts up against the world That don't stand a chance against this boy and girl We faced 'em down, fought bigger fights And I know, babe, we're gonna be alright [Chorus] Well, it feels like we're living from pay check to check And we wake up wondering what might happen next Yeah, sometimes it feels like we won't make it through But the hard times pass Like the good ones do Baby, wrap your fingers and Hold on tight I'll be right here beside you tonight Baby, climb up here Watch the city glow Let's make a wish on the fireworks below We're making moments that we won't forget And feeling ones that haven't happened yet [Chorus] Whoa Don't be afraid We can't forget these are the days |

Little Annie Vickers is boarding up windows
And her old dog is stranded on the Silos Hey there, Annie, don't even think it So much water and you can't even drink it Well, maybe by Christmas they'll dig up the roads Take whatever you can, girl Leave the rest for the crows Leave the rest for the crows Been livin' in Crawford for fifteen years Nothin' much ever happens 'round here And no one believed the water would come Till the sky grew dark and it swallowed the sun And it rained for forty-two nights and forty-two days And everything that we loved is floatin' away [Chorus] How long till our dreams run dry? Don't know but we're stayin' On our knees we raise our eyes Holdin' on and prayin' to find One blue sky Mrs. Wilson sits with an insurance adjuster Big city boys - she never did trust 'em Have you been gettin' the letters I'm sendin'? 'Cause the preacher swears that the world is ending Well, if there's no way out, wish someone would show us We keep looking around here for some modern day Moses [Chorus] Now we're diggin' our heels hard as we can But the backyard looks like the Rio Grande And I wonder, will it wash us clean or wash us away? [Chorus: x2] One blue sky |

Looking for an angel
In these hills Looking for a map to find What we left behind Knowing that we will Always end up right where we start 'Cause I've got time on my hands And hope in my heart We both understand We weren't meant to be apart [Chorus] April showers Bring May flowers I have seen rain before But if Sunday morning Lets that sun in What are we waiting for? 'Cause love leaves an open door If I had one wish I'd wish for two One for me, baby One for you It would find you Right where you are With time on your hands And hope in your heart We both understand We were written in the stars [Chorus] It's worth all the cost Till I find what I lost in your eyes And you realize April showers Bring May flowers We have seen rain before But if Sunday morning Lets that sun in What are we waiting for? 'Cause love leaves an open... Wishing and hoping Love leaves an open door |

Mean girls
Well, I ain't a mean girl But I've known a few They'll make you cry, baby And then blame it on you They'll hate you if you're pretty They'll hate you if you're not They'll hate you for what you lack, baby And they'll hate you for what you got Mean girls, scratchin' and spittin' Mean girls can't be forgiven Mean girls make mean women Mean girls It starts on the play ground Pulling your hair Then in high school It gets worse from there You'll see 'em comin' They travel in packs Smile to your face While stabbing your back If they ain't out a-prowlin' Creeping down the hall You'll find them by the lockers, baby Sharpening their claws Mean girls, start 'em young Mean girls, forked tongue Mean girls, see 'em and run Mean girls, mean girls Sugar and spice And everything nice Think she's hot, but she's cold as ice First comes love, then comes marriage Then comes her mama with another little wanna-be Mean girls, full of hate Mean girls, just can't wait Mean girls, to take your date Mean girls make stuff up Mean girls, just bad luck Mean girls stink Mean girls, best friends forever Mean girls, almost never Mean girls, whatever Mean girls, hey, mean girls |

Warm breeze blowin', long dirt road
First time that I saw him was such a long time ago I was sixteen goin' on seventeen Blue bonnet Texas queen fell in love with a rodeo king Down in Sugarland Drive in movies, hot summer night First time that I kissed him Made the world seem right I was city bound, couldn't wait to get outta this town Suddenly everything just changed Something told me I just might stay Down in Sugarland Down in Sugarland Doin' the best we can Holdin' hands, stayin' up all night Swingin' stars from satellites Down in Sugarland Doin' the best we can Fallin' in love again Down in Sugarland Corn fields swaying, clothes on the line Tumbleweed is a turnin' like the hands of time When I was sixteen going on seventeen I didn't know much of anything Livin' the American dream Down in Sugarland And I see the small town smile in your eyes Shining like a diamond in the sky The sweet sky Under the sweet sky Sweet skies of Sugarland Doin' the best we can Holdin' hands, stayin' up all night Swingin' stars from satellites Down in Sugarland Doin' the best we can Fallin' in love again Down in Sugarland Whoa, whoa, whoa, Sugarland Sweet skies of Sugarland Sugarland (Sugarland) warm breeze blowin' Long dirt road Sugarland |
