Sideways
Hey girl, what's your name? It's so loud in here I can't hear a thing But I sure do like your style And I can see you came to rock In your blue jeans and white tank top Man, that look drives me wild And it's hey now, here we go DJ don't you play nothing slow Keep those girls out on the floor Gotta make 'em wanna come back for more Been here since the sun went down Be here when it comes back around Worked all week, it's time to play Gonna get a little bit sideways, sideways Ain't no need to fight Y'all take that redneck stuff outside That's what parking lots are for But once you're out you ain't coming back The velvet rope ain't got no slack Man, they're busting down the door And it's hey now, here we go DJ don't you play nothing slow Keep those girls out on the floor [ From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/d/dierks-bentley-lyrics/sideways-lyrics.html ] Gotta make 'em wanna come back for more Been here since the sun went down Be here when it comes back around Worked all week, it's time to play Gonna get a little bit sideways, sideways That's right Hey now, here we go DJ don't you play nothing slow Gotta make 'em wanna Gotta make 'em wanna Gotta make 'em wanna come back for more Hey now, here we go DJ don't you play nothing slow Keep those girls out on the floor Gotta make 'em wanna come back for more Been here since the sun went down Be here when it comes back around Worked all week, it's time to play Gonna get a little bit sideways, sideways Sideways, sideways Hey girl, what's your name?

Country Roads, old theatre marquee signs; Parkin' lots, and billboards flyin' by. Spanish mosques, little hick town squares; Wild roses on a river bank: girl its almost like you're there Oh, every mile, a memory; every song, another scene, From some old movie going back in time you and me. Every day, a page turned down; every night, a lonesome sound, Like a freight train rollin' through my dreams: Every mile, a memory. Red sun down, out across the western sky, Takes me back to the fire in your eyes. Texas stars in a purple night. Not seein' 'em with you baby: oh, they never do it right, no. Every mile, a memory; every song, another scene, From some old movie going back in time you and me. Every day, a page turned down; every night, a lonesome sound, Like a freight train rollin' through my dreams: Every mile, a memory. Funny how no matter where I run, Round every bend I only see, Just how far I haven't come. Every mile, a memory; every song, another scene, From some old movie going back in time you and me. Every day, a page turned down; every night, a lonesome sound, Like a freight train rollin' through my dreams: Every mile, a memory; Every mile, a memory; Every mile, a memory. I Wanna Make You Close Your Eyes
Girl I've been waitin on this long hard day to get over So i can rest my head right here on your shoulder I just wanna lay here and feel you breathe Listen to the rhythm of your heartbeat And see where it leads... We're wide awake but girl I Wanna Make You Close Your Eyes And say my name like only you can say it and hold me tight All I need is only you and me alone tonight I wanna make you close your eyes...oh yeah... You can make me work for it girl if you want to Just leave a trail for me to follow you into the bedroom And if you need a little bit of help from me Babe there's not a button that I cant reach Lets see where it leads We're wide awake but girl I wanna make you close your eyes And say my name like only you can say it and hold me tight All I need is only you and me alone tonight I wanna make you close your eyes I wanna take you somewhere...out there... 'Til the world fades out of sight We're wide awake but girl I wanna make you close your eyes And say my name like only you can say it and hold me tight... just hold me tight All I need is only you and me alone tonight Yeah.. I wanna make you close your eyes...oh I wanna make you close your eyes...oh Girl... I wanna make you close your eyes |
Settle For a Slowdown
I must look just like a fool here in the middle of the road standing there in your rearview and getting soaked to the bone this land is flat as it is mean a man can see for a hundred miles So I'm still praying I might see the glow of a brake light. But your wheels just turn, down the road ahead If it hurts at all you aint showed it yet I keep a lookin' for the slightest sign that you might miss what you left behind I know there's nothing stopping you now but I'd settle for a slowdown. I held on longer then I should Believing you might change your mind And those bright lights of Hollywood would fade in time. But your wheels just turn down the road ahead If it hurts at all you aint showed it yet I keep a lookin' for the slightest sign that you might miss what you left behind I know there's nothing stopping you now but I'd settle for a slowdown. But your wheels just turn down the road ahead if it hurts at all you aint showed it yet your just a tiny dot on that horizon line come on tap those brakes baby just one time I know there's nothing stopping you now Im not asking you to turn back around I'd settle for a slowdown come on just slow down I'd settle for a slow down. What Was I Thinkin'
Becky was a beauty from south Alabama Her daddy had a heart like a nine pound hammer Think he even did a little time in the slammer What was I thinkin'? She snuck out one night an' met me by the front gate Her daddy came out a-wavin' that 12-guage We tore out the drive, he peppered my tailgate What was I thinkin'? Oh, I knew there'd be hell to pay But that crossed my mind a little too late 'Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top Sittin' right there in the middle by me An' I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss Man, just gotta get goin', where the night might lead I know what I was feelin' But what was I thinkin'? What was I thinkin'? By the county line, the cops were nippin' on our heels Pulled off the road an' kicked it in four-wheel Shut off the lights an' tore through a cornfield What was I thinkin'? At the other side, she was hollerin', "Faster" Took a dirt road, had the radio blastin' Hit the honky-tonk for a little close dancin' What was I thinkin'? Oh, I knew there'd be hell to pay But that crossed my mind a little too late 'Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top Sittin' right there in the middle by me I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss Man, just gotta get goin', where the night might lead I know what I was feelin' But what was I thinkin'? What was I thinkin'? When a mountain of a man with a "Born to kill" tattoo Tried to cut in, I knocked out his front tooth We ran outside, hood slidin' like Bo Duke What was I thinkin'? I finally got her home at a half past two, later Daddy's in a long chair sittin' on the driveway Put it in park as he started my way What was I thinkin'? Oh, what was I thinkin'? Oh, what was I thinkin'? Then she gave a "Come an' get me" grin An' like a bullet, we were gone again 'Cause I was thinkin' 'bout a little white tank top Sittin' right there in the middle by me I was thinkin' 'bout a long kiss Man, just gotta get goin' where the night might lead I know what I was feelin' Yeah I know what was I feelin' But what was I thinkin'? What was I thinkin'? I know what I was feelin' What was I thinkin'? Guess I was thinkin' 'bout that tank top Spread out Lot of Leavin' Left to Do
These old boots still got a lot of ground They ain't covered yet There's at least another million miles Under these old bus treads So if you think I'm gonnna settle down I've got news for you I still got a lot of leavin' left to do And as long as there's a song Left in this old guitar This life I'm bound to lead Ain't for the faint of heart So you won't fall for me If you know what's good for you 'Cause I still got a lot of leavin' left to do I guess the Lord made me hard to handle So lovin' me might be a long shot gamble So before you go and turn me on Be sure that you can turn me loose 'Cause I still got a lot of leavin' left to do Girl, you look like you might be an angel So I won't lie I could love you like the devil If you wanted me to tonight And we could talk about forever for a day or two But I still got a lot of leavin' left to do I guess the Lord made me hard to handle So lovin' me might be a long shot gamble So before you go and turn me on Be sure that you can turn me loose 'Cause I still got a lot of leavin' left to do Yeah, I still got a leavin' left to do |
