The body's a temple, that's what we're taught
I've treated this one like an old honky-tonk Greasy cheeseburgers and cheap cigarettes One day they'll get me if they ain't got me yet 'Cause I'm living, in fast forward A hillbilly rock star out of control I'm living, in fast forward Now I need to rewind real slow My friends all grew up, they settled down Built nice little houses on the outskirts of town They work in their office, drive SUV's They pray for their babies and they worry 'bout me 'Cause I'm living in fast forward A hillbilly rock star out of control I'm living in fast forward Now I need to rewind real slow I'm always runnin' Son of a gunnin' I've had a good time it's true But the way I've been goin' It's time that I toned it Down just a notch or two Oh yeah Well I'm living, in fast forward A hillbilly rock star out of control I'm living, in fast forward Now I need to rewind real slow Well I'm living, in fast forward A hillbilly rock star out of control I'm living, in fast forward Now I need to rewind real slow Yeah I need to rewind real slow Yeah I still got some miles to go |

Lookin back now, well it makes me laugh,
we were growin our hair, we were cuttin' class, knew it all already there was nothing to learn, we were strikin' matches just to watch 'em burn. Listen to our music just a little too loud, we were hangin' in there with the outcast crowd, headin' to the rapids with some discount beer, it was a long train trestle but we had no fear, Man I don't know, where the time goes but it sure goes fast, just like that, We were wanna be rebels who didn't have a clue In our rock n roll t-shirts and our typically bad attitudes Had no excuses for the things that we'd done We were brave, we were crazy, we were mostly Young Talked a good game, when we were out with the guys But in the backseat we were awkward and shy, Girls were a mystery that we couldn't explain, And I guess there are some things that are never gonna change Man I don't know where the time goes But it sure goes fast, just like that We were wannabe rebels that didn't have a clue In our rock n roll teeshirts and our typically bad attitudes Had no excuses for the things that we'd done We were brave, we were crazy, we were mostly Young Young, young, Yeah and wishing we were older Young, Hey I wish it wasn't over Man I don't know, where the time goes, but it sure goes fast, just like that We were wanna be rebels that didn't have a clue In our rock n roll t-shirts and our typically bad attitudes Had no excuses for the things that we'd done We were brave, we were crazy, we were mostly Young Young, Hey and wishing we were older And I wish it wasn't over |

When I was a boy
Four houses down from me Was a family with an only child She was the only girl In this whole world that could make me smile Down the road I made up reasons to go Down the road Somewhere inside of me There was something she took a liking to And I asked her to marry me And She said she really wanted to Down the road To see what life’s gonna hold Down the road Her momma wants to know Am I washed in the blood or just in the water Her daddy wants to know If I make enough to take his daughter Down the road Before he can let her go Down the road Now down the street from here There’s an engineer with an only son And our baby girl says She believes that he is the only one Down the road Her momma wants to know Is he washed in the blood or just in the water And I want to know If he makes enough to take my daughter Down the road When it comes time to go Down the road Down the road You know I want to help her go Down the road Down, down, down, down that road Down, down, down, down that road |

Starin' out into the wild blue yonder
So many thoughts to sit and ponder 'Bout life and love and lack of And this emptiness in my heart Too old to be wild and free still Too young to be over the hill Should I try to grow up But who knows where to start So I just sit right here and have another beer in Mexico Do my best to, waste another day Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico Let the warm air melt these blues away Sun comes up and sun sinks down And I seen 'em both in this tourist town Up for days in a rage Just tryin' to search my soul From the answers and the reasons why I'm at these crossroads in my life And I really don't know Which way to go So I just sit right here and have another beer in Mexico Do my best to, waste another day Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico Let the warm air melt these blues away Maybe I'll settle down, get married Or stay single and stay free Which road, I travel is Still a mystery to me So I'll just sit right here, have another beer in Mexico Do my best to, waste another day Sit right here and have another beer in Mexico Let the warm air melt these blues away Down in Mexico |

Sun tanned toes ticklin' the sand
Cold drink chillin' in my right hand Watchin' you sleep in the evening light Restin' up for a long, long night. 'Cause when the sun goes down, we'll be groovin' When the sun goes down, we'll be feelin' all right When the sun sinks down, over the water Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down. Yeah! All day long just takin' it easy Layin' in the hammock where it's nice and breezy Sleepin' off the night before 'Cause when the sun goes down, we'll be back for more. When the sun goes down, we'll be groovin' When the sun goes down, we'll be feelin' alright When the sun sinks down, over the water Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down. This old guitar and my dark sunglasses The sweet concoction is smooth as molasses Nothing to do but breathe all day Until the big moon rises and it's time to play. When the sun goes down, we'll be groovin' When the sun goes down, we'll be feelin' alright When the sun sinks down, over the water Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down. When the sun goes down, we'll be groovin' When the sun goes down, we'll be feelin' all right When the sun sinks down, over the water She thinks Cracker's sexy when the sun goes down. (Other versions may have the Chorus sang 1-2-3 more times) Mmm-Mmm-Mmm We'll be feelin' alright When the sun sinks down, over the water Uncle Kenny's hotter when the sun goes down. When the sun goes down, we'll be groovin' When the sun goes down. Hey, Uncle Kenny. When the sun goes down, over the water Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down... |

Walkin' along beneath the lights of that miracle mile
Me and Mary makin' our way into the night You can hear the cries from the carnival rides, the pinball bells and the skee ball slots Watchin' the summer sun fall out of sight There's a warm wind comin' in, from off of the ocean Makin' its way past the hotel walls to fill the street Mary is holdin', both of her shoes in her hand Said she likes to feel the sand beneath her feet And in the mornin' I'm leavin' makin' my way back to Cleveland So tonight I hope, that I will do just fine And I don't see, how you could ever be Anything but mine There's a local band playin', at the seaside pavilion And I got just enough cash to get us in And as we are dancin', Mary's wrapping her arms around me And I can feel the sting of summer on my skin In the midst of the music, I tell her I love her And we both laugh, 'cause we know it isn't true Oh but Mary there's a summer drawin' to an end tonight And there's so much that I long to do to you But in the mornin' I'm leaving, makin' my way back to Cleveland So tonight I hope, that I will do just fine And I don't see, how you could ever be Anything but mine And in the mornin' I'm leavin' makin' my way back to Cleveland So tonight I hope, that I will do just fine And I don't see, how you could ever be Anything but mine Mary I don't see, how you could ever be Anything but mine In the mornin' I'm leavin' makin' my way back to Cleveland So tonight I hope, that I will do just fine Hey I don't see, how you could ever be Anything but mine |

Man, I could use a Pina Colada
Little bit of sun on my skin A hammock, a book Never gonna look back Once my feet hit the sand I've had it up to here with this rat race Need a smile on my face I wanna go where I can lighten up the load Drive a little while on the wrong side of the road Get this laying low off to a flying start Play my guitar in the Caribbean sun Hang with the locals at the Quiet Mon Where you can be a tourist, a beach bum, or a star And be as you are Gettin' stuck sure would be easy In this palm tree paradise Ambition fades with every wave For the finer things in life Maybe I'll just hang around here Go home later next year I wanna stay down there where I can lighten up the load Drive a little while on the wrong side of the road Get this laying low off to a flying start Play my guitar in the Caribbean sun Hang with the locals at the Quiet Mon Where you can be a tourist, a beach bum, or a star And be as you are I wanna play my guitar in the Caribbean sun Hang with the locals at the Quiet Mon Where you can be a tourist, a beach bum, or a star And be as you are Be as you are |

Jack and Diane painted a picture of my life and my dreams
Suddenly this crazy world made more sense to me Well, I heard it today and I couldn't help but sing along 'Cause every time I hear that song. I go back to a two toned short bed Chevy Driving my first love out to the levee Livin' life with no sense of time I go back to the feel of a fifty yard line A blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine Wishin' time would stop right in its tracks Every time I hear that song, I go back I go back. Well, I used to rock all night long To Keep On Rocking Me, Baby At frat parties, college bars, just trying to impress the ladies Well, I heard it today and I couldn't help but sing along 'Cause everytime I hear that song. I go back to the smell of an old gym floor The taste of salt on a Carolina shore After graduation and drinkin' goodbye to friends I go back to watchin' summer fade to fall Growin' up too fast and I do recall Wishing time would stop right in it's tracks Everytime I hear that song, I go back I go back. We all have a song that's somehow stamped our lives That takes us to another place and time. So, I go back to a pew, preacher and a choir Singin' 'bout God and brimstone and fire And the smell of Sunday chicken after church I go back to the loss of a real good friend And the sixteen summers I shared with him Now, Only The Good Die Young stops me in my tracks Everytime I hear that song, I go back I go back. To the feel of a fifty yard line A blanket, a girls, and some raspberry wine I go back To watching summer fade to fall Growing up too fast and I do recall I go back To the loss of a real good friend And the sixteen summers I shared with him I go back. I go back... |

I've been up to my neck, working six days a week
Wearing holes in the soles, of the shoes on my feet Been dreamin' of getting away, since I don't know Ain't no better time than now, for Mexico No shoes, no shirt, no problems Blues what blues, hey I forgot 'em The sun and the sand and a drink in my hand, with no bottom And no shoes, no shirt, no problems No problems Want a towel or a chair, in the sand by the sea Wanna look through my shades, and see you there with me Wanna soak up life for awhile, and lay back low No boss no clock no stress, no dress code No shoes, no shirt, no problems Blues what blues, hey I forgot 'em The sun and the sand and a drink in my hand, with no bottom And no shoes, no shirt, no problems Babe lets get packed, tank tops and flip-flops, if you got 'em No shoes, no shirt, no problems No problems |

Well me and my lady had our first big fight
So I drove around till I saw the neon lights The corner bar It just seemed right, so I pulled up Not a soul around but the old bar keep down at the end lookin' half asleep He walked up and said "What'll it be?" I said,"The good stuff" He didn't reach around for the whiskey He didn't pour me a beer His blue eyes kind of went misty He said, "You can't find that here." CHORUS 1 Cause its the first long kiss on a second date your momma's all worried when you get home late Droppin the ring in the spaghetti plate cause your hands are shakin so much It's the way that she looks with her eyes in her hair Eatin' burnt suppers the whole first year and askin for seconds to keep her from tearin' up Yeah man, that's the good stuff He grabbed a carton of milk and he poured a glass then I smiled and said, "I'll have some of that." We sat there and talked as an hour passed like old friends Saw a black and white picture and it caught my stare It was a pretty girl with bouffant hair He said, "That's my Bonnie, taken 'bout a year after we wed." He said, "Spent 5 years in the bottle, when the cancer took her from me, But Ive been sober 3 years now 'Cause the one thing stronger than the whiskey Chorus 2 Was the sight of her holdin' my baby girl The way she adored that string of pearls I gave her the day that our youngest boy Earl, married his high school love and it's a new t-shirt saying "I'm a grandpa" and being right there as our time got small, And holdin her hand when the good Lord called her up Yeah man, That's the good stuff BRIDGE He said, When you get home she'll start to cry, When she says, Im sorry, say So am I Then look into those eyes so deep in love and drink it up 'Cause thats the good stuff That's the good stuff |

Couldn't wait to turn 16 and drive all the boy's around
Foot on the gas and hands on the wheel was all I could think about A little rust in the bed of that truck and a four speed on the floor Five-hundred dollars it was mine, all mine and I never wanted nothin' more I took Katie down by the river with a six dollar bottle of wine Just a fool tryin' to play it cool hopin' she'd let me cross the line I was praying that she couldn't tell I hadn't been that far before The first time's a one time feelin' and I never wanted nothin' more, No I never wanted nothin' more.. Well I'm what I am and I'm what I'm not I'm sure happy with what I've got I live to love and laugh a lot And that's all I need My buddies all tried to change my mind But I told them that I'd thought it through Katie laughed and my mama cried when they heard me say "I do" A little ring is a little thing, but its all I could afford Now she's mine, all mine till the day I die, and I never wanted nothin' more Well I'm what I am and I'm what I'm not I'm sure happy with what I've got I live to love and laugh a lot And that's all I need One Sunday I listened to the preacher and I knew he was preaching to me I couldn't help it I walked up front and I got down on my knees Right then and there, I swear I changed when I found the Lord Glory Hallelujah, good God almighty I never wanted nothin' more Well I'm what I am and I'm what I'm not I'm sure happy with what I've got I live to love and laugh a lot And that's all I need Never wanted nothin' more... And I never wanted nothin' more |

Chesney:
So damn easy to say that life’s so hard Everybody’s got their share of battle scars As for me, I’d like to thank my lucky stars that I’m alive and well It’d be easy to add up all the pain And all the dreams you sat and watched go up in flames Dwell on the wreckage as it smolders in the rain But not me, I’m alive And today you know that’s good enough for me Breathing in and out’s a blessing can’t you see Today’s the first day of the rest of my life and I’m alive And well, I’m alive and well Dave Matthews: The stars are dancing on the water here tonight It’s good for the soul when there’s not a soul in sight This boat has caught its wind and brought me back to life Now I’m alive and well And today you know that’s good enough for me Breathing in and out’s a blessing can’t you see Today’s the first day of the rest of my life and I’m alive And well, I’m alive and well |
