şarkı sözü,şarkı sözleri, Lyrics

Well I’ve done some things that I can’t undo
I took your trust and I tore it into
No man in his right mind would have said it’s over
Still I told you goodbye completely sober

I wish I could say I’d been drinking
And blame the bottle but I’ve never been one to booze
Lord only knows what I was thinking
Wish I could say I’d been drinking
Even that’s just a fool’s excuse

My mama knows her baby boy knows better
It’s gonna break her heart to hear we’re not together
She’s always said she cares so much for you
So what is she gonna say about the hell I’ve put you through

I wish I could say I’d been drinking
And blame the bottle but I’ve never been one to booze
Lord only knows what I was thinking
Wish I could say I’d been drinking
Even that’s just a fool’s excuse

Even Tennessee whiskey couldn’t wash away the pain
Watered down with teardrops over light Kentucky rain

I wish I could say I’d been drinking
And blame the bottle but I’ve never been one to booze
Lord only knows what I was thinking
Wish I could say I’d been drinking
Even that’s just a fool’s excuse

I wish I could say I’d been drinking
And blame the bottle but I’ve never been one to booze
Lord only knows what I was thinking
Wish I could say I’d been drinking
Even that’s just a fool’s excuse

He calls from a hotel in downtown Dallas
Says he won’t be home for three more days
She gets so lonely in her Houston hill top palace
Talking to her self as their two-year-old plays
She rocks the baby to sleep then gets in bed
Reads romance novels of a love she once had
She closes her eyes and dreams about the man
Who gave her more than money and a call now and then

Nakarat:
As the shine on her diamond starts to fade
She recalls the promises they made
But a bond can only bend so far before it breaks
She’s stuck between a rock and a heartache

She tries to keep busy with her everyday routines
Soap operas in the afternoons, after she cleans
As she wipes off a picture frame from their wedding day
She wonders if he asked her again what would she say

Nakarat:

She feels like she’s stranded somewhere in no man’s land
Cause her life is like a prisoner’s chained to a wedding band

Well I was thumbing through the channels
And I saw a sight to see
A so-called country singer, there singing on MTV
And I began to think – had she ever heard a thing
Had she ever been to Texas where Bob Wills is still the king
Ah – ha

From the Houston rodeo to any old dancehall
Of cowgirls and cowboys know how to have a ball
And every night they’ll tip a toast to the Lone Star state
Where the women are so fine and the music is so great
Cause I wanna two-step to a real dancehall swinger
I don’t wanna see no wanna-be country western singer
Don’t call it country unless you can prove it
I want something with a swing to it

Aw yeah…

All together now….

It’s a Texas thing, Y’all
So if you don’t understand just drop what you’re doing
Drive here as quick as you can
I’d even stop in Oklahoma if it was up to me
Cause when it comes to country, there ain’t none like
I wanna two-step to a real dancehall swinger
I don’t wanna see no wanna-be country western singer
Don’t call it country unless you can prove it
I want something with a swing to it

That hip-hoppin’ rappin’ boy band crap is for the squirrels in San Francisco
And Nashville is making music that sounds like a dadgum disco
Don’t call it country unless you can prove it
I want something with a swing to it
Yes, I said don’t call it country unless you can prove it
I want something with a swing to it
That’s right…

With the world in the palm of his hands
Slipping through his fingers just like grains of sand
He don’t know his hourglass is losing time
Till she run out of patience and leaves him far behind

Nakarat:
Some lovers gotta learn love the hard way
Before they understand the way they feel
Some lovers are slower than others
Some will come around and some never will

If only she had a dime every time he’s done her wrong
Or for every one wondering why she’s still holding on
She could buy that rodeo and shut it down
Along with every honky tonkin’ bar in town

Nakarat:
Some lovers gotta learn love the hard way
Before they understand the way they feel
Some lovers are slower than others
Some will come around and some never will

It may be his fault but she’s still one to blame
For taking him back and playing his foolish games

Nakarat:
Some lovers gotta learn love the hard way
Before they understand the way they feel
Some lovers are slower than others
Some will come around and some never will

We both work hard for money already spent
Blaming each other for where it all went
Never thinking of love only paying the loans
Griping bout’ bills and keeping up with the Jones
Just once let’s forget about making ends meet
Or whose got the nicest yard on the street
Darlin’ let loose, let your hair down
We’re staying at home for a night on the town

nakarat:
So turn the music up, and dim the lights down
Let those old records keep spinning around
Replace all our worries with some romance
Tell me you love me then we’ll shut up and dance

When you’re in my arms it makes me feel
Like I own a mansion on top of the hil
But it’s not how big’s the house it’s how happy’s the home
How poor is a rich man who lives all alone

nakarat:
So turn the music up, and dim the lights down
Let those old records keep spinning around
Replace all our worries with some romance
Tell me you love me then we’ll shut up and dance

nakarat:
So turn the music up, and dim the lights down
Let those old records keep spinning around
Replace all our worries with some romance
Tell me you love me then we’ll shut up and dance

I got a letter from your lawyer
And you got one from mine
They say It’s gonna be final
Once we sign that dotted line

We’ll I guess we’ll get our freedom
And a so called fresh new start
But when you take half of everything
You’ll be taking half my heart
Our love got lost somewhere in life’s complications
Torn between two lawyers and all their legal litigations

Nakarat:
Off the record, there’s something I need to say to you
This ain’t easy but it’s what my heart has to do
Cause I can’t let you go until I let you know
Off the record, I’m still in love with you

I took down our wedding picture
From above the fireplace
And I stood there awhile
Starring at your pretty face

Have we lost our love
To differences we can’t resolve
I guess if push comes to shove
Thank God no children are involved
I can still see you throwing your rose bouquet
I never thought I’d see the day we’d throw it all away

I’ve done all I can do now all I can do is pray
And ask the Lord to let me hear you say

He starts to think when she winks that he’s somewhere he shouldn’t be
He may be alone but at home someone’s wearing his ring
So he heads for the door and ignores the devil on his shoulder
He’ll do the right thing but someone’s gonna break down and hold her

Nakarat:
And there’s a vacancy at home but not tonight at the Notel Motel
In a room full of lies where love is stolen or put up for sale
If the walls could talk you know they’d have some stories to tell
There’s a vacancy at home but not tonight at the Notel Motel

Once again another man walks in and orders him drinks for two
Despite his wife and picture perfect life he’s to good to be true
While he’s flirting she’d swear he’s working on a job out of town
A married man, you know he’s got no business messing around

Nakarat:
And there’s a vacancy at home but not tonight at the Notel Motel
In a room full of lies where love is stolen or put up for sale
If the walls could talk you know they’d have some stories to tell
There’s a vacancy at home but not tonight at the Notel Motel

It’s a five star chain or a run down dirt cheap no name
With or without room service what done is the same

Nakarat:
And there’s a vacancy at home but not tonight at the Notel Motel
In a room full of lies where love is stolen or put up for sale
If the walls could talk you know they’d have some stories to tell
There’s a vacancy at home but not tonight at the Notel Motel

You warned me from the start not to let you break my heart
I guess you don’t know who your talking too
I’ll bet you money no matter how much honey
I’m about to change your point of view

Nakarat:
You’re messing with man on a mission
And a heart with hard headed ambition
My sites are set on you, there’s nothing you can do
You’re messing with man on a mission

Darling I declare how dare you to compare
When you ain’t ever loved no one like me
Unlike the other boys you may have played like toys
I’m more than a yo-yo on a string

Nakarat:

You warned me from the start not to let you break my heart
I guess you don’t know who your talking too
I’ll bet you money no matter how much honey
You’ll be mine by the time I’m through

I was singing at the ol’ Broken Spoke
I could have swore she came walking in
Forgot the words to a song that I wrote

Must be losing my mind once again
Her daddy is a southern Baptist preacher
I had to choose her or the bars where I sang
Now when I call I can’t seem to reach her
I’m gonna find her if it’s the last thing

Nakarat:
So I’ll drive all night long
Till I find where we went wrong
But there’s no love in sight -
Just those lonely Lubbock lights

I was ready to give up the road
As I turned onto her street
But the silhouette there in her window
Was of someone who once looked like me
I’d placed a price on her heart
But someone else collected the bounty
Now this lost soul don’t know where to start
I think I’m lost somewhere in Hale County

Nakarat:

That west Texas wind grew colder
As I left her further behind me
Sometimes I stop and cry on the shoulder
Cause every town I pass helps to remind me

Deep in the mountain of Harlan County
Employed by the Cumberland coal company
The pay is short, the days are long
But our labor union laws are coming on strong
So I drink this whiskey for my throat

Wear my hard hat and weathered coat
Early every morning I stand in line
Waiting to work these Kentucky coal mines

We enter the shaft around five thirty
With two dozen hands, cold, callused and dirty
We’ll dig through a million tons of rock and clay
And we’ll still be digging at the end of the day
Down on our knees we confess our sins
And pray that the roof above don’t cave in

So bless our hearts and save or souls
And the air we breathe down in the devil’s hole
Just last week when the the ceiling fell
The explosion trapped us in the depths of hell

The weight of the earth took poor Tucker’s life
Leaving behind a hungry baby and wife
We dug out with our shovels and picks
But soon enough the black lung disease will make us sick

So bless our hearts and save or souls
And the air we breathe down in the devil’s hole
I work deep in the mountains of eastern Kentucky

I know if I leave Harlan alive I’ll be more than lucky
Wish I could go to Texas and plant some cottonseed
But moving takes money and I’ve got three mouths to feed
So I drink this whiskey for my throat
Wear my hard hat and weathered coat
Early every morning I stand in line
Waiting to work another Kentucky coal mine
