Josh Turner

My chances weren't good; she was way out of my reach
How could she ever fall for some ol' boy like me
But here she lies asleep tonight in these arms of mine
And that goes to show: angels fall sometimes

She's been here long enough to see that I'm no saint by now
Every mornin' I wake surprised to find her still around
The love that she gives to me could be no truer sign
Every now and then angels fall sometimes

She brings pieces of heaven every day into my life
She's been my inspiration with her by my side
I'm not afraid to dream high

The love that she gives to me could be no truer sign
Every now and then angels fall sometimes
Yeah, I thank the Lord angels fall sometimes

Rain's comin' down on the roof of my trailer house
With my luck I'd probably step outside and drown
How long will it take to get used to this, doin' without?
Guess I'll just lay around in my pajamas
Baby's gone home to mama

[Chorus]
Baby's gone home; she left me alone
But she said she'd phone me sometime
Sad old song, left me long gone outta my mind
Well, we did our best, but we didn't have enough in common
Sittin' here lonesome; baby's gone home to mama

Glance through the paper lookin' for somethin' to read
Even the funnies weren't that funny to me
It's written in the stars: the future was plain to see, yeah
Might've known she'd leave if I'd read Nostradamus
Baby's gone home to mama

[Chorus]

Y'all, I miss her alot, but at least she took the little Chiwawa
Sittin' here lonesome; baby's gone home to mama
Baby's long gone, baby's gone home to mama
She's gone
Ah, sittin' here in my pajamas
My pajammies

Woke up at 5am, an put on my camouflage
Wiped off my .243 and fired up my Dodge
Headed out to my ol' deer stand back in the pines
Gonna get me a ten point buck with 11 inch tines, yeah

Settled in hidin' from the wind,
Waitin' on the sun
You might end up being my supper
If you get in the way of my gun
It's so still I can hear the train
From 10 miles away
If I'm here 8 hours from now
It'll be OK, yeah

Cause I'm a backwoods boy
Grew up on a dirt road
I'm a backwoods boy
With no better place to go
Waitin' on a deer, wishin' on a star
I'll always be true to my heart
Cause I'm a backwoods boy
I'm a backwoods boy

Sittin' on the bank of Lynches
River with a little campfire
Sleepin' on the ground, diggin' the
Sound of a backwoods choir
Talkin' to the man in the moon
Way up in the sky
He told me to let my worries
Roll on by, yeah

Cause I'm a backwoods boy
Grew up on a dirt road
I'm a backwoods boy
With no better place to go
Waitin' on a deer, wishin' on a star
I'll always be true to my heart
Cause I'm a backwoods boy
I'm a backwoods boy

I'm a backwoods boy
I'm a backwoods boy
Backwoods boy
Mm
I'm a backwoods boy

She was out last night
Til way past ten
Same thing all over again
But with my best friend
Why'd she wanna make me so mad?

I treat that bad woman good
Lord, I need a good woman bad

Now when I asked her
To go to Sunday school
She went and called me a damned ol' fool
Now i dont understand
Why'd she wanna make me so sad?

I treat that bad woman good
Lord, I need a good woman bad

Oh here she comes
Oh, there she goes

Well I saved my money
And I bought her a car
She got it stolen outside a bar
She looks good, but she might not be
The kind of woman that I'm likely to need
Oh well I don't know why I let her walk on in
She's as impolite as she can be
Now I'm starting to think
Hey maybe I've been had

I treat that bad woman good,
Lord, I need a good woman bad

I treat that bad woman good,
Lord, I need a good woman bad

I treat that bad woman good,
Lord, I need a good woman bad

I've got my share of scars on those ol' monkey bars
Every time I'd hit the ground
On that old long dirt, my bike lost control
And once again I was fallin' down
Every time I'd try to fly, there's a force I can't deny
Gravity

Grew to be six foot one, depended on no one
Yeah, I was my ol' man
Invincible and strong until you came along
And touched me with your gentle hand
When I look into your eyes, there's a force I can't deny
Gravity

[Chorus x 2]
Well, I never really like it much
Always left me all scraped up
Never really saw it as a good thing
Changes tides out on the sea
Pulled your body close to me
First time I ain't been afraid to fall
Don't guess it's so bad after all
Gravity

Gravity
Mmm, gravity

I sure do like your cadillac
It brings lots of memories back
I always felt like a star
Driving around in that car

[Chorus]
Cause I had one one time
Oh I had one one time
You probably think I'm lying
But I had one one time

Have you got a job that you love?
Each day you can't wait to get up
You feel proud when you draw your pay
Would you be surprised if I say

I had one one time
Oh I had one one time
I hold a cardboard sign
But I had one one time

Well I bet you've got a good friend
You always hang out on weekends
Since highschool you've been thick as things
Well I bet you'd never believe

I had one one time
Oh I had one one time
Somewhere along the line
I had one one time

That beautiful girl
Beside you is probably your wife
Man you've got it all
I'd say you live quite a life

I had one one time
Oh I had one one time
Maybe I've lost my mind
But I had one one time

Some men dream of crossin' oceans
Some men dream one day to fly
Spend their whole lives out there floatin'
On the water and the sky

Some men dream of building fortunes
Some men dream of havin' fame
Nothin' else is more important
Than makin' money and a name

But in my dreams I see
A little sky blue house
Beside a small stream
A front porch, a screen door
The sound of bare feet runnin' and cartoons
In my dreams, your dreams come true

I come find you in your garden
Pullin' weeds between the rows
Trade a kiss for a glass of water
Sit and watch what love can grow

But in my dreams I see
A little sky blue house
Beside a small stream
A front porch, a screen door
The sound of bare feet runnin' and cartoons
In my dreams, your dreams come true

In my dreams, your dreams
Are the only things
That really matter to me
When you smile, I smile
What makes you happy makes me happy too
In my dreams, your dreams come true
In my dreams, your dreams come true

It wasn't even in my plan
A week in the sun and some fun in the sand
I was really only passin' through
It all began on Ocean Drive
Standin' in line for a burger and fries
Coincidentally, so were you
We took a quiet corner booth

[Chorus]
Didn't plan on hangin' out in Florida
Never was too good at standin' still
Suddenly it's lookin' like I'm gonna
Kill a few more days in Jacksonville

I'm givin' up my walkin' shoes
While the wind and the waves wash away my blues
And you help me lose track of time
Rock and roll, you're holdin' me
Rockin' in your arms by a rollin' sea
It wasn't easy makin' up my mind
I can see forever in your eyes, your eyes

[Chorus]

Didn't plan on hangin' out in Florida
Never was too good at standin' still
Suddenly it's lookin' like I'm gonna
Kill a few more days in Jacksonville
Kill a few more days in Jacksonville
