You know I like my chicken fried Cold beer on a Friday night A pair of jeans that fit just right And the radio up Well I was raised up beneath the shade of a Georgia pine And that's home you know Sweet tea pecan pie and homemade wine Where the peaches grow And my house it's not much to talk about But it's filled with love that's grown in southern ground And a little bit of chicken fried
Cold beer on a Friday night A pair of jeans that fit just right And the radio up Well I've seen the sunrise See the love in my woman's eyes Feel the touch of a precious child And know a mother's love
Well its funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most Not where you live or what you drive or the price tag on your clothes There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind this I've come to know So if you agree have a drink with me Raise you glasses for a toast To a little bit of chicken fried
Cold beer on a Friday night A pair of jeans that fit just right And the radio up Well I've seen the sunrise See the love in my woman's eyes Feel the touch of a precious child And know a mother's love
I thank god for my life And for the stars and stripes May freedom forever fly, let it ring. Salute the ones who died The ones that give their lives so we don't have to sacrifice All the things we love Like our chicken fried
Cold beer on a Friday night A pair of jeans that fit just right And the radio up Well I've seen the sunrise See the love in my woman's eyes Feel the touch of a precious child And know a mother's love
I got my toes in the water, ass in the sand Not a worry in the world, a cold beer in my hand Life is good today Life is good today
Well, the plane touched down just about 3 o'clock And the city's still on my mind Bikinis and palm trees danced in my head I was still in the baggage line Concrete and cars are their own prison bars like this life I'm living in But the plane brought me farther; I'm surrounded by water And I'm not going back again
I got my toes in the water, ass in the sand Not a worry in the world, a cold beer in my hand Life is good today Life is good today
Adios and vaya con dios Yeah I'm leaving GA And if it weren't for tequila and pretty senoritas I'd have no reason to stay Adios and vaya con dios Yeah I'm leaving GA Gonna lay in the hot sun and roll a big fat one And grab my guitar and play
Four days flew by like a drunk Friday night as the summer drew to an end They couldn't believe that I just couldn't leave And I bid adieu to my friends Because my bartender she's from the islands Her body's been kissed by the sun And coconut replaces the smell of the bar and I don't know if it's her or the rum
I got my toes in the water, ass in the sand Not a worry in the world, a cold beer in my hand Life is good today Life is good today
Adios and vaya con dios A long way from the lake Its where all the muchachas they call me "big poppa" when I throw pesos their way Adios and vaya con dios A long way from GA Someone do me a favor and pass me the Jaeger And I'll grab my guitar and play
Adios and vaya con dios Going home now to stay The senoritas don't care-o when there's no dinero I got no money to stay Adios and vaya con dios Going home now to stay
Just gonna prop up by the lake With my ass in a lawn chair, toes in the clay Not a worry in the world, a PBR on the way Life is good today Life is good today.
She got eyes that cut you like a knife and lips that taste like sweet red wine And pretty legs go to heaven every time She got a gentle way that puts me at ease When she walks in the room I can hardly breathe Got a devastating smile knock a grown man to his knees
She got whatever it is It blows me away She's everything I wanted to say to a woman but couldn't find the words to say She got whatever it is I don't know what to do And every time I try and tell her how I feel it comes out "I love you" You got whatever it is
You know I've never been the type that would ever want to stay Bring 'em home at night and they're gone the next day But that all changed when she walked into my life And people askin why it is I tell them I don't know Just something about the woman makes my heart go haywire And she's gonna be my wife
She got whatever it is It blows me away She's everything I wanted to say to a woman but couldn't find the words to say She got whatever it is I don't know what to do Every time I try and tell her how I feel it comes out "I love you" You got whatever it is
Now when she loves me Girl that's how I feel When she loves me I'm on top of the world When she loves me I can live forever When she loves me I am untouchable
You got whatever it is It blows me away You're everything I wanted to say to a woman but couldn't find the words to say You got whatever it is I don't know what to do Every time I try and tell her how I feel it comes out "I love you, I do" You got whatever it is Oh, you got whatever it is.
There's a place, where the boat leaves from It takes away all your big problems You got worries you can drop them in the blue ocean But you gotta get away to where the boat leaves from Take one part sand, and one part sea, one part shade of a big palm tree The drinks they're cold and the ladies are hot And I know this is the place for me
So get away to where the boat leaves from It takes away all of your big problems You got worries you can drop them in the blue ocean But you gotta get away to where the boat leaves from
See the problem is that you're down there And there's a perfectly good island somewhere Where a ride that floats and don't grab your coats You won't need them where we are going
So get away to where the boat leaves from It takes away all of your big problems You got worries you can drop them in the blue ocean But you gotta get away to where the boat leaves from
Pick me up Out on a boat that is huge Pick me up I don't know how to do Pick me up
Put me down Down on the sand where its cool Put me down When I fall off my stool Put me down I'll just sleep there til morning comes around
With sunshine and ladies and pina colodas and Bob Marley songs that are playing There's a sound in my ear that I want you to hear Soft tropical lips that are saying
Get away to where the boat leaves from It takes away all of your big problems You got worries you can drop them in the blue ocean But you gotta get away to where the boat leaves from

I ride east every other Friday But if I had it my way A day would not be wasted on this drive And I want so bad to hold you Son, there's things I haven't told you Your mom and me couldn't get along
So I drive and I think about my life And wonder why that I slowly die inside Every time I turn that truck around Right at the Georgia line And I count the days And the miles back home to you On that Highway 20 ride
A day might come you'll realize That if you see through my eyes There was no other way to work it out And a part of you might hate me But son, please don't mistake me For a man that didn't care at all
And I drive and I think about my life And wonder why that I slowly die inside Every time I turn that truck around Right at the Georgia line And I count the days And the miles back home to you On that Highway 20 ride
So when you drive And the years go flying by I hope you smile If I ever cross your mind It was the pleasure of my life And I cherished every time And my whole world It begins and ends with you
A man was bothering me today I wanted to tell him to go away But I stood and listened to him anyway, OK? He said he didn't want to shoot that man It was his thing and I wouldn't understand He had done all that he can, OK? OK...
I guess his body was as good as mine Just like me he was wasting time Turning over every stone to see what he could find, OK? He was filling tank and he asked for money I lied and said I didn't have anyThen my conscience took over and gave him a handful of change.
Don't do a thing. Stay right there. You'll lie there. You don't seem to care
I know it's hard to survive in the city When beautiful days don't look so pretty And you don't have windows to keep the night away, OK? He was dirty and stink and just a bit crude But I didn't say that because that's kind of rude And he didn't care what I had to say in the first place. OK...
I wanted to say you're a big disgrace To the world, yourself, and the human race And reach back and pop him one good time in the face, OK? No, it's not OK and I didn't do that But I gave him a smile and tipped my hat and Told him to have a very nice rest of the day
Don't do a thing. Stay right there. You'll lie there. You don't seem to care.
I guess he bought some booze or shit And sure that bothers me a little bit but It's his life and I can't tell him how to live it As he turned and started to go his way I tried to think of something wise to say like...
Don't do a thing. Stay right here. You'll lie here. You don't seem to care. You'll die here.
Cocaine flame in my bloodstream Sold my coat when i hit spokane Bought myself a hard pack of cigarettes in the early Morning rain Lately my hands they don't feel like mine My eyes been stung with dust and blind Held you in my arms one time Lost you just the same
Jolene I ain't about to go straight It's too late I found myself face down in a ditch Booze in my hair Blood in my lips A picture of you holding a picture of me In the pocket of my blue jeans Still don't know what love means Still don't know what love means Jolene
Been so long since i seen your face Or felt a part of this human race I've been living out of this here suitcase for way too long A man needs something he can hold onto A nine pound hammer or a woman like you Either one of them things will do
Jolene I ain't about to go straight It's too late I found myself face down in a ditch Booze in my hair Blood on my lips A picture of you holding a picture of me In the pocket of my blue jeans Still don't know what love means Still don't know what love means
Sic em on a chicken Sic em on a chicken Sic em on a chicken And watch those feathers fly
Sic em on a chicken Sic em on a chicken Break out the butter and The flour ready to fry
My dog Pete is the smallest dog Of all the dogs in my yard He's a mean som bitch drinks Beam and water from a broken mason jar
Sic em on a chicken Sic em on a chicken Sic em on a chicken And watch those feathers fly
Sic em on a chicken Sic em on a chicken Break out the butter and The flour ready to fry
We heard this awful noise Comin outta the woods (comin outta the woods) Heard chicken screams We know it wasn't gon be good
I think we lost a chicken I think we lost a chicken I think we lost a chicken Cuz i just heard him cry
I think we lost a chicken I think we lost a chicken I think we lost a chicken But you can get another one for a dollar seventy nine
In a couple of years his spurs had grown He wasn't safe to keep around the home He almost took an eyeball from Lonnie's son I was in the kitchen makin fig preserves And I heard that young 'un get kicked in the face And I knew that rooster's gon get what he deserves
So I chased the chicken I chased the chicken I chased the chicken And Pete hit him from the side I chased the chicken I chased the chicken And me and Pete suppered On a homemade chicken pot pie
Sic em on a chicken Sic em on a chicken Sic em on a chicken And watch those feathers fly Sic em on a chicken Sic em on a chicken I can smell the kitchen and It's almost supper time
