Garth Brooks - In Pieces (0000) by Garth Brooks (보컬) on maniadb.com

I spent last night in the arms
Of a girl in Louisiana
And though I'm out on the highway
My thoughts are still with her
Such a strange combination of a woman and a child
Such a strange situation stoppin' every hundred miles
Callin' Baton Rouge

A replay of last night's events
Roll through my mind
Except a scene or two
Erased by sweet red wine
And I see a truck stop sign ahead
So I change lanes
I need a cup of coffee
And a couple dollars change
Callin' Baton Rouge

Operator won't you put me on through
I gotta' send my love down to Baton Rouge
Hurry up won't you put her on the line
I gotta' talk to the girl just one more time

Hello Samantha dear I hope you're feelin' fine
And it won't be long until I'm with you all the time
But until then I'll spend my money up right down to my last dime
Callin' Baton Rouge

Operator won't you put me on through
I gotta' send my love down to Baton Rouge
Hurry up won't you put her on the line
I gotta' talk to the girl just one more time

Oh in Baton Rouge
Sweet Baton Rouge, my Baton Rouge

Pushin' horns weren't easy like the movie said it was
And I don't recall no dance hall girls or hotel rooms with rugs
You worked hot and tired and nasty, rode your pony's head too low
And there were all the nights you couldn't sleep, 'cause it was too damn cold

And you'd sing Strawberry Roan and Little Joe

Like the time we hit the river, and the rains began to fall
And the water was risin' so damn fast, we thought it'd drown us all
We lost a lot of steers that day, and four to five good mounts
But when all the boys rode into camp, we knew that's what counts

And we sang, Yippie Ti Yi Yay and Amazing Grace

Or the night they broke behind us, and then took us by surprise
I whistled out to Bonner, I seen the terror in his eyes
And he rode for all his horse would ride, and I know he done his best
But he crossed over Jordan, ridin' Dunny to his death

And we sang, Bringing In The Sheaves and The Rugged Cross

So when you see the cowboy, he's not ragged by his choice
He never meant to bow them legs, or put that gravel in his voice
He's just chasin' what he really loves, and what's burnin' in his soul
Wishin' to God that he'd been born a hundred years ago

Still singin', Strawberry Roan and Little Joe

There's not a lot of things to do
I wouldn't rather do with you
Guess I'm funny that way

Lately I just sit and stare
Talk to people who aren't there
To get through one night a day

One night a day
One step away
From leavin' you behind

I sit up with the radio
Sing along, with the ones I know
To get through one night a day

One night a day
One step away
From leavin' you behind

I'm callin' every friend I've had
I wake 'em up and make 'em mad
To let 'em know that I'm ok

I used to sit and talk to you
They're all just a substitute
To get through one night a day

One night a day
One step away
From leavin' you behind

I stay up with the late late show
Just another way I know
To get through one night a day
To get through one night a day

Well, I don't know what my uncle did
But he must have done it right
They sure strung him up one saturday night
He had spent his whole life fussin'
Would have spent his last breath cussin'
'til he realized the deal was really done
He started screamin', hallelujah
Tryin' to make his peace with everyone

Yeah, he was kickin' and screamin'
Just like he came in
He was kickin' and screamin', darlin'
Right to the bitter end
Ain't it funny how we come in kickin' giddy-up
And go out hollerin' whoa
Lord, we never want to be here
Sure don't ever want to go

Well, I could hear those church bells ringin'


To my best friend I was clingin'
Screamin' "if you love me brother don't let me go"
Well then the whole scene was repeated
Two years later I begged and pleaded
Screamin', if you love me honey
Now you know you wouldn't want to let me go"
No, I didn't want to do it
But I sure don't want to see it come undone

Yeah, I was kickin' and screamin'
Just like I came in
I was kickin' and screamin', darlin'
Right to the bitter end
Ain't it funny how we come in kickin' giddyup
And go out hollerin' whoa
Lord, we never want to be here
Sure don't ever want to go

Yeah, I was kickin' and screamin'
Just like I came in
I was kickin' and screamin', darlin'
Right to the bitter end
Ain't it funny how we come in kickin' giddyup
And go out hollerin' whoa
Lord, we never want to be here
Sure don't ever want to go
