Better Than That
I am a poor man's child
Looking through the window of an uptown store
My head was running wild
Thoughts of the day just walking on through that door
Could have stayed there forever
Maybe get a little 9 to 5 see me through the day
But I was raised another way
Work hard, sing loud, take a chance. daddy says
The world's gonna turn you round
And people they'll bring you down
Your time's gonna move too fast
So take a minute, take a look and laugh
Don't stop when it all goes bad
My love
You know you're better than that
Done my time played those empty rooms
Where the people walk in but they leave just a little too soon
And I have learned to play that game
Now they all sing along and everybody knows my name
Well I am
That girl no more
I took her by the hand and we made it to the that uptown store
The world's gonna turn you round
And people they'll bring you down
Your time's gonna move too fast
So take a minute, take a look and laugh
Don't stop when it all goes bad
My love
You know you're better than that
My love
You know you're better than that
Living In A Country Song
Sometimes I pray when I lose my way
and I play my ol' six-strig when I got something to say
I'm an old time singer playing honky tonks all over town
I'm an old gunslinger gonna shoot the bad guys down
Long gone
Living in a world
Where music always along.
Summer roads
Drop top Mustang '65
I come alive in a country song
I'm fine
Living in a country song
Sometimes I'm born in Tennessee
Sitting on a tailgate red Chevy '53
I'm taking my time with some records I find in a worn out store
they keep on trying but they just don't make it like that anymore
Long gone
Living in a world
Where music always plays along
Summer road
Drop top Mustang '65
I come alive in a country song
I'm fine
Living in a country song
I'm an old time singer playing honky tonks all over town
I'm an old gunslinger gonna shoot the bad guys down
Long gone
Living in a world
Where music always plays along
Summer road
Drop top Mustang '65
I come alive in a country song
I'm fine
Living in a country song
