It's only 'cause you're lonely, that you're wanting me
I'm just a way to get you through your misery
You don't need my love, i know you'll let me down
It's only 'cause you're lonely that you're comin' 'round

Girl, you're telling me
That he set you free
But that's nothing new
To a heart that's never true
What makes you think you can come running back so easily

It's only 'cause you're lonely, that you're wanting me
I'm just a way to get you through your misery
You don't need my love, i know you'll let me down
It's only 'cause you're lonely that you're comin' 'round

You say it just ain't right
To sleep alone at night
And how much you have missed
A lover's tender kiss

When will you understand my heart is free at last
It's only 'cause you're lonely, that you're wanting me
I'm just a way to get you through your misery
You don't need my love, i know you'll let me down
It's only 'cause you're lonely that you're comin' 'round
It's only 'cause you're lonely that you're comin' 'round

Well hello there, when did you get back in town
Pull up a chair, tell me why you look so down
I'll order us some coffee
We can talk about old times
When the world still turn our way
And you were mine

Those years with you were the best i ever had
Just seeing you brought those precious memories back
And we had some good times and we had some bad
But the worst times with you were still the best i ever had

Guess we should say good-bye it's time to go
Didn't mean to make you cry i just wanted you to know

Those years with you were the best i ever had
Just seeing you brought those precious memories back
And we had some good times and we had some bad
But the worst times with you were still the best i ever had
Yeah the worst times with you were still the best i ever had

Well I changed my ways to please that woman
But I could never be good enough
Yeah, I gave up drinkin' and took up churchin'
And for awhile it wasn't tough
But barkeep I've made a decision after doing the best I could
That for better or worse, I'm gonna be bad for good

So bring on the whiskey
Turn up the jukebox loud
These boots were made for tonkin'
Warn every woman around
I'm gonna wind it up tonight
A little tighter than I should
Yeah for better or worse, I'm gonna be bad for good

I really like my reputation
And how I'm known all over town
Of being the first in my generation
To close every single honky tonk down
I'm gonna be a tough act to follow
Doin' what I said I would
Yeah for better or worse, I'm gonna be bad for good

So bring on the whiskey
Turn up the jukebox loud
These boots were made for tonkin'
Warn every woman around
I'm gonna wind it up tonight
A little tighter than I should
Yeah for better or worse, I'm gonna be bad for good
Oh somebody be bad

I'm gonna wind it up tonight
A little tighter that I should
Yeah for better or worse, I'm gonna be bad for good
Yeah for better or worse, I'm gonna be bad for good

Hey man I'm glad you asked
'cause I know more about that than I want to
And I'll share it with you
If you don't work things out
And save your love somehow
You'll know it then
What it's like at the bitter end

First comes the downpour, an emotional uproar
Brought on by "don't love you anymore"
Followed by a slammin' door
Then ol' lonely moves in
And the hurt begins
That's what it's like my friend
If you let it come to a bitter end

If time were on my side
Then it would let me fly back to the night
Of our last fight
And I could hold my tongue
And hold on to the one I should've never let go


Then I wouldn't have to know everything about

The downpour, that emotional uproar
Brought on by "don't love you anymore"
Followed by a slammin' door
Then ol' lonely moves in
And the hurt begins
And that's what it's like my friend
If you let it come to a bitter end

First comes the downpour, an emotional uproar
Brought on by "don't love you anymore"
Followed by a slammin' door
Then ol' lonely moves in
And the hurt begins
That's what it's like my friend
If you let it come to a bitter end

Hey man I'm glad you asked
'cause I know more about that than I want to

Go tell the sheriff, john roland wood's found jesus
Now he's living at the foot of the cross
He testified on the main drag this evening
Said he's gonna spread the gospel to the lost

The meanest sinner to ever live and breathe
Said he's been clean and sober for a week
He said his soul is not troubled anymore
He hocked his gun and gave the money to the lord

Go tell the sheriff, john roland wood's found jesus
At a tent revival right outside of town
Oh what a friend this town has in jesus
If you look at what john roland has tore down

Before the spirit touched his soul
He kept the streets signs full of bullet holes
Back then when he was raising hell
You knew he was coming by the blue lights on this tail...look out

Go tell the sheriff, john roland wood's found jesus
Now that water tower must be full of wine
Let not your weary heart be troubled
Turn your women and your children back outside

What will we do on friday nights
Without john roland shootin' out the lights
Carry that ol' jukebox away
He traded b-9 for amazing grace

Go tell the sheriff, john roland wood's found jesus
Now he's living at the foot of the cross

Well, I can't forget the day we met how I could clearly see
With picture-perfect vision, she was the only one for me
My perception of a heavenly love was right there in my sight
I never saw the true writin' on the wall, 'cause she was standin' in my light

Bought her a diamond ring; nearly everything this workin' man could not afford
A Chevy, a house, and the credit cards to her favorite department stores
Loved her all I could; I can't believe she would run off with some ol' used to be
Guess ya never know what the future holds, 'cause for her it wasn't me

[Chorus]
And they say lookin' back is a lesson, and that's why I won't forget her
Through the smoke and haze of bein' burned, I can see things a whole lot better
Lord, I was blind, but now I find since she did me down and dirty
Hindsight's not twenty-twenty, it's more like a 30-30

Now I'm pickin' up the pieces of this shattered, broken heart of mine
Been searchin' for the lovin' parts, but the hurtin' ones are all I find
When she took her aim, she wasn't playin' no games
Lord, she dropped me right to my knees
She untied our knot with a perfect shot and put me into my misery

[Chorus]

Lord, hindsight's not twenty-twenty, it's more like a 30-30

I heard you cry yourself to sleep
And wake up in the night and walk the floor
And I heard you try to tell me something
Just as I was runnin' out the door
And I heard you say "I love you"
So many times I can't recall
But until I heard you say good-bye
I thought I'd heard it all

No, I hadn't heard the fortress
That I'd built around my ego fall apart
That self-destructing unmistaken cryin'
Of my own broken heart

I heard you whisper little things
No one else on earth was meant to hear
And I can't believe it's possible
You're whisperin' in someone else's ear
Until tonight I didn't know how far
A grown man could crawl
Oh, until I heard me beggin' you
I thought I'd heard it all

No, I hadn't heard the fortress
That I'd built around my ego fall apart
That self-destructing unmistaken cryin'
Of my own broken heart

No, I hadn't heard that little voice inside me
Screamin' fool what have you done
As my tears start fall
And I realize the worst is yet to come
And I thought I'd heard it all
Oh I realize the worst is yet to come
And I thought I'd heard it all

Well it seems these days everybody's in a hurry
First to get the worm them birds are losin' their minds
Well I can say I don't like wakin' up that early
The only way to live is when I'm takin my time

'cause life's too short to live it too fast
I can't smell a rose I've already passed
I've learned one lesson to lessen the sorrow
If it's a good idea today it will be a good idea tomorrow

Now I ain't sayin' hard work is no good
We've all got to pull the weight that's on our backs
There's just one thing to remember if we could
All work and no play don't make jack

'cause life's too short to live it too fast
I can't smell a rose I've already passed
I've learned one lesson to lessen the sorrow
If it's a good idea today it will be a good idea tomorrow

'cause what's the use in livin', if we ain't livin'
Slow that engine down and enjoy the ride
'cause there ain't no stoppin' that clock from tickin'
So love the ones you love while you've got the time

'cause life's too short to live it too fast
I can't smell a rose I've already passed
I've learned one lesson to lessen the sorrow
If it's a good idea today it will be a good idea tomorrow
If it's a good idea today it will be a good idea tomorrow
(life's too short)
Good idea tomorrow
(life's too short)
Good idea tomorrow
(life's too short)
Good idea tomorrow

On any given day I'll catch myself
Talking to yur memory that's all I have left
I miss you more than words can say
On any given day

Baby, on any given day goin' crazy alone
I'll happen by your place takin' the long way home
You'll drive me out of my way
On any given day

Once you hold an angel in your arms
It's the devil letting go
Just a taste of heaven on earth
Leaves a hunger in your soul

If I had three wishes, I'd throw away two
If I could be certain just one would come true
On any given day, I'd take one more night with you
Once you hold an angel in your arms
It's the devil letting go
Just a taste of heaven on earth
Leaves a hunger in your soul

If I had three wishes, well I'd throw away two
If I could be certain just one would come true
On any given day, I'd take one more night with you
Oh, it's true
On any given day, I'd take one more night with you

Guess I'll be wearin' out another pair of walkin' shoes
Tryin' to reach the place I've always seen myself
And yesterday I thought that I might be right here with you
But today I realize it's always somewhere else

Somewhere down the road
There's a place for me I ain't ever been
Tears may fill my eyes when I go
But my heart seems to be
A dream ahead of me
Somewhere down the road

There's a restless wind blowin' that I need to ride
And I ain't sure I'll ever have a home
I'm just standin' at another place where roads divide
So hold me close tonight, 'cause tomorrow I'll be gone

Somewhere down the road
There's a place for me I ain't ever been
Tears may fill my eyes when I go
But my heart seems to be
A dream ahead of me
Somewhere down the road

Somewhere down the road
There's a place for me I ain't ever been
Tears may fill my eyes when I go
But my heart seems to be
A dream ahead of me
Somewhere down the road
(Somewhere down the road)
Somewhere down the road
Somewhere down the road
