Better As A Memory - KENNY CHESNEY



Better As A Memory - KENNY CHESNEY

I move on like a sinners prayer
And letting go like a levee breaks
Walk away as if I don't care
Learn to shoulder my mistakes
Or built to fade like your favorite song
Get reckless when there's no need
Laugh as your stories ramble on
Break my heart, but it won't bleed
My only friends are pirates
That's just who I am
But I'm better as a memory than as your man

Never know when the truth won't do
And pretty good on a lonely night
Or move on the way a storm blows through
And never stay, but then again, I might.
I struggle sometimes to find the words
Always sure until I doubt
Walk a line until it blurs
Build walls too high to climb out
But I'm honest to a fault
That's just who I am
I'm better as a memory than as your man

I see you leaning, you're bound to fall
I don't want to be that mistake
I'm just a dreamer and nothing more
You should know it before it gets too late

Cause goodbyes are like a roulette wheel
You never know where they're gonna land
First you're spinning, then you're standing still
Left holding a losing hand
But one day you're gonna find someone
And right away you'll know it's true
That all of your sinking's done
It was just a part of the passing through
Right there in that moment you'll finally understand
That I was better as a memory than as your man
Better as a memory than as your man

Got A Little Crazy - KENNY CHESNEY



Got A Little Crazy - KENNY CHESNEY

Steel drums still ringing in my head
Well I feel pain, So I'm not dead
From the looks of things, it looks like
It got a little crazy last night

Could I get your name again?
Some situation that we're in
Woke up by each others side
It got a little crazy last night

Last thing I remember
I told the bartender mix rum and whatever you have
First one drink, then two then I woke up with you so I know things can't be all that bad
But it's still a little hazy, it got a little crazy last night

Are these your shoes that I have on?
Is this your bed, is this your home?
All I know is, it's not mine
It got a little crazy last night

Last thing I remember
I told the bartender mix rum and whatever you have
First one drink, then two then I woke up with you so I know things can't be all that bad
But it's still a little hazy, it got a little crazy last night

I think I feel a fresh tattoo
What is it of, I wish I knew
It couldn't get more out of sight
It got a little crazy last night

Last thing I remember
I told the bartender mix rum and whatever you have
First one drink, then two then I woke up with you so I know things can't be all that bad
But it's still a little hazy, sounds a little shady, I think she might have paid me, it got a little crazy last night

Got a little crazy last night
Got a little crazy

Wife And Kids - KENNY CHESNEY



Wife And Kids - KENNY CHESNEY

Everybody thinks I've got it all
Nobody really does, do they?
I've got more than I deserve, more than I ever dreamed
But there's always a price you pay
It's been an amazing road
I've been blessed, I know
But at the end of the day I go home alone

I still hope someday I'll have a wife and kids
Smiling faces running to the door when I walk in
Saying "Daddy's home, you were gone too long. What'd you bring me? Swing me. Let me show you what I did"
I still dream about that look on a woman's face
That says I love you through the good, the bad, the sunshine or the rain
Sometimes I wish I had someone to share my life with
Maybe I'll have a wife and kids
Maybe someday....

Maybe I could have a son
Play football in the backyard
Or take my daughter fishin', and when she turns 15 teach her how to drive a car
When I grow old and they've all left home
I want to lay beside my wife and talk about the old times, remember all the good times.

I still hope someday I'll have a wife and kids
Smiling faces running to the door when I walk in
Saying "Daddy's home, you were gone too long. What'd you bring me? Swing me. Let me show you what I did"
I still dream about that look on a woman's face
That says I love you through the good, the bad, the sunshine or the rain
Sometimes I wish I had someone to share my life with
Maybe I'll have a wife and kids
Maybe someday....

Sometimes I wish I had someone to share my life with
Maybe I'll have a wife and kids
Someday...
I'll have a wife and kids
Maybe someday...

Just Not Today - KENNY CHESNEY



Just Not Today - KENNY CHESNEY

She played third base on a softball team
Had a pretty good arm and real nice swing
I was workin part out at Gentry's farm
I had thing for a girl in a uniform
After the game she was mine, young, wild and free
Yeah old Mr. Gentry was pretty cool
He said son I'd know where I'd be
And what I'd say if it was me

[Chorus]
One of these days
Were guna have to grow up
Have to get real jobs and be adults, someday
Just not today
Have to worry about things out of our control
Like kids, love and money and gettin old, someday
Just not today, just not today

Had a rope swing hangin from a sycamore tree
By a deep wood spot on white sand creek
Used to walk barefoot, down a little dirt path
We'd through out the beach towels and
Lay on our backs
Had four wheel drive trucks parked up in the shade
With those speakers blasted
We never knew how much we really had it made,
Without a care in a world we'd say

[Repeat Chorus]

Have to show some maturity, responsibility
Pay the old fiddler, face reality
Maybe tomorrow the order of wise
Will be, god love us we'll be

[Repeat Chorus]

Just not today
Just not today

Shiftwork - KENNY CHESNEY



Shiftwork - KENNY CHESNEY

(feat. George Strait)

Shift work, hard work, tired bar
Blue-collar shirt and a baseball cap
You knew me

He's hot, sweat drops, 'round the clock
Door never locks
Noise never stops
Not all day
Work seven to three
Three to eleven
Eleven to seven

Shift work, tough work for the convenience store clerk
Two feet that hurt, going insane
She's mad at some lad
Drove off and didn't pay for his gas and he won't be the last
'round the clock pain
