Lost Highway
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
In my rearview mirror
My life is getting clearer
The sunset sighs and slowly disappears
These trinkets once were treasure
Life changes like the weather
You grow up, grow old
Or you hit the road round here
So I drive (drive, drive)
Watching white lines passing by
With my plastic dashboard Jesus
Waiting there to greet us
Hey, hey
I finally found my way
Say goodbye to yesterday
Hit the gas, there ain't no brakes
On this lost highway
Hell, I'm busting loose, I'm letting go
Out on this open road
It's independence day
On this lost highway
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Don't know where I'm going
but I know where I've been
I'm afraid of going back again
So I drive (drive, drive)
Years and miles are flying by
And waiting there to greet us
Is my plastic dashboard Jesus
Hey, hey
I finally found my way
Say goodbye to yesterday
Hit the gas, there ain't no brakes
On this lost highway
Hell, I'm busting loose, I'm letting go
Out on this open road
It's independence day
On this lost highway
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Oh patron saint of lonely souls
Tell this boy which way to go
Guide the car, you've got the keys
Farewell to mediocrity
Kicking off the cruise control
We're turning up the radio
Got just enough religion
And a half a tank of gas
Come on
Let's go (go, go)
I finally found my way
Say goodbye to yesterday
Hit the gas, there ain't no brakes
On this lost highway
I'm busting loose, I'm letting go
When I'm out on this open road
It's independence day
On this lost highway
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
On this lost highway
Summertime
Feels something like summertime
Top down ain't nothing but time
Radio's on and you're by my side
Feels something like summertime
These days life goes like this
Wake up check that off of some list
Gotta be a little something more than this
The botton of my coffee cup
I keep a postcard in the back of my mind
White sand, sunshine
And you shining like a brand new diamond
It's keeping me for giving up
Thinking like I had enough
You make me feel something like summertime
Top down ain't nothing but time
Radio's on and you're by my side
Feels something like summertime
Like that first slow dance and a first long kiss
There ain't nothing baby better then this
It's like a beach blanket and a bottle of wine
It feels something like summertime
Summer, summer, summertime
I was a warm breeze with a cool tan
Life mapped out on the back of my hand
When I was laughing I was making plans
But I didn't laugh when I found you
There's a heaven baby you're the proof
You make me feel something like summertime
Top down ain't nothing but time
Radio's on and you're by my side
Feels something like summertime
Like that first slow dance and a first long kiss
There ain't nothing baby better then this
It's like a beach blanket and a bottle of wine
It feels something like summertime
Summer, summer, summertime
SOLO
Feels something like summertime
Top down ain't nothing but time
Radio's on for me and my valentine
It's a like that first slow dance
And a first long kiss
There ain't nothing baby better then this
It's like a beach blanket and a bottle of wine
Yeah
Feels something like summertime
Top down ain't nothing but time
Radio's on and you're by my side
It feels something like summertime
Just like summertime
Summertime, summer, summer, summertime
First long kiss
Something like summertime
(You Want To) Make A Memory
Hello again
It's you and me
Kinda always like it used to be
Sippin wine, killin' time
Tryin' to solve life's mysteries
How's your life, it's been awhile
God it's good, to see you smile
I see you reaching for your keys
Lookin' for a reason not to leave
If you don't know
if you should stay
If you don't say
What's on your mind
Baby just breathe
There's nowhere else tonight
We should be
You wanna make a memory
I dug up this old photograph
Look at all that hair we had
It's bittersweet to hear you laugh
Your phone is ringin' I don't wanna ask
If you go, now
I'll understand
If you stay, hey
I got a plan
We're gonna make a memory
You wanna steal a piece of time
You can sing the melody to me
And I can write a couple lines
You wanna make a memory
If you don't know
If you should stay
And you don't say
What's on your mind
Baby just breathe
There's nowhere else tonight
We should be
We should be
You wanna make a memory
You wanna steal a piece of time
You can sing the melody to me
And I can write a couple lines
You wanna make a memory
You wanna make a memory
Whole Lot Of Leavin'
It's pretty cold for late September
The autumn wind is creeping in
The summer sun packed up it's long gone
There's a whole lot of leavin' going on
I'll bet it's warm in California
I think it's time to hit the road
I just might call that band of gypsies
Go searching for a pot of gold
Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin' going on
I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine
I still hear your voice
It takes me back to that time
Where I can find a reason to be strong
Seems like lately there's whole lot of leavin' going on
close the window draw the curtains
You ain't the only one here hurtin'
No one's right no one's wrong
Lately there's a whole lot of leavin' goin' on
I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine
I still hear your voice
It takes me back to that time
Where I can find a reason to be strong
Seems like lately there's whole lot of leavin' going on
Hey
SOLO
You used to live to say you loved me
Now you got one foot out the door
Then you turn around and ask me
Do we got it anymore?
I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine
I still hear your voice
It takes me back to that time
When I need a reason to be strong
I close my eyes and picture your hand in mine
Yeah, I walk the line
You'll never hear me say goodbye
So pretty baby, please be strong
Seems like lately there's a whole lot of leavin' going on
I'll come back for you baby
We Got It Going On
Is there anybody out there looking for a party
Shake your moneymaker baby smoke it if you got it
We just wanna have some fun, if you don't wanna kiss this
Everybody raise your hands, come on I need a witness

Any Other Day
Alarm clock rings, it's 6:45
Must have hit that snooze button least 3 times
I'm wishing this morning was still last night
On any other day
Just might wanna die
Traffic's backed up 20 miles to the east
Must have hit every damn red light on the street,
The weatherman says it's going to rain for a week,
Hey what can you do?
On any other day I'd be blue eyes crying
I could tell the world, that at least I'm trying
The clouds are breaking the sun is shining new
For me and you
On any other day, I might just go crazy
The grace of knowing that you're gonna save me
Maybe luck and love will pull us through
On any other day, I might just stay in bed
Sit down in a sea of blankets
Pull 'em up over my head
Catch a beer buzz in the morning
Just to get a little edge
Then maybe just get up and down and do it all again
Hey, I like where this it's going
Yeah, cause I know where it's been
On any other day I'd be blue eyes crying
I could tell the world, that at least im trying
The clouds are breaking the sun is shining new
For me and you
On any other day, I might just go crazy
The grace of knowing that you're gonna save me
Maybe luck and love can pull us through
On any other day
Yeah, yeah
Alarm clock rings, its 6:45
I like waking up with you on my mind
Knowing that you're saving me one more time
On any other day i'd be blue eyes crying
I could tell the world, that at least im trying
The clouds are breaking the sun is shining new
For me and you
On any other day, I might just go crazy
The grace of knowing that you're gonna save me
Maybe luck and love can pull us through
On any other day
Yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, oh
Any other day
On any other day i'd be blue eyes crying
I could tell the world, that at least im trying
The clouds are breaking the sun is shining new
For me and you
Seat Next To You
Long slow drive down an old dirt road
You've got your hand out the window,
Listening to the radio,
That's where I want to be...
On an old park bench in the middle of December
Cold hard rain falling, can't find no cover
That would be alright with me...
Hard days, good times, blue skies, dark nights
Baby, I want you to take me
Wherever you're going to
Maybe say that you'll save me
A seat next to you
In the corner booth of a downtown bar,
With your head on my shoulder
Smoking on a cheap cigar
That would be alright with me
In the back row of a movie
Or a cross-town train
I want to hear your voice whispering my name
That's who I want to be
Hard days, good times, blue skies, dark nights
Baby, say that you take me
Wherever you're going to
Maybe say that you'll save me
A seat next to you
Life is like a ferris wheel, spinning around
When you get to the top it's hard to look down
Just hang on, we'll make it through
Save me
A seat next to you
When you get to the gates and the angels sing
Go to that place where the church bells ring
You know I'll come running
Running to find you
Baby, say that you’ll take me
Wherever you're going to
Baby I want you to save me
A seat next to you
A seat next to you
A seat next to you
A seat next to you
Everybody's Broken
Welcome to the party
Come on in and disappear
You're feeling like stranger
But all your friends are here
Little lines and cracks
Around your eyes and mouth
Something's trying to get in
Something's trying to get out
It's ok, to be a little broken
Everybody's broken, in this life
It's ok, to feel a little broken
Everybody's broken, it's alright
It's just life
Step into the deep end
Make yourself at home
When you wonder why you're breathing
You know you're not alone
It's so hard to believe
It's easier to doubt
You're trying to hold in
But your dying to scream out
It's ok to be a little broken
Everybody's broken
In this life
It's ok to feel a little broken
Everybody's broken, it's alright
It's alright
It's just life
SOLO
Oh, take a look around
Tell me what you see
Is who you think you are
Who you want to be
It's ok, to be a little broken
Everybody's broken, in this life
It's ok, to feel a little broken
Everybody's broken, they're alright
Just keep on going
Eyes wide open
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Everybody's broken
Yeah
Till We Ain't Strangers Anymore (featuring Leann Rimes)
It might be hard to be lovers
But it's harder to be friends
Baby pull down the covers
It's time you let me in
Maybe light a couple candles
I'll just go ahead and lock the door
If you'll just talk to me baby
Till we ain't strangers anymore
Lay your head on my pillow
I'll sit beside you on the bed
Don't you think it's time we say
Some things we haven't said
It ain't too late to get back to that place
Back to the way we thought it was before
Why don't you look at me
Till we ain't strangers anymore
Sometimes it's hard to love me
Sometimes it's hard to love you too
I know it's hard believing
That love can pull us through
It would be so easy
To live your life
With one foot out the door
Just hold me baby
Till we ain't strangers anymore
SOLO
It's hard to find forgiveness
When we just turn out the lights
It's hard to say you're sorry
When you can't tell wrong from right
It would be so easy
To spend your whole damn life
Just keeping score
So let's get down to it baby
There ain't no need to lie
Tell me who you think you see
When you look into my eyes
Lets put our two hearts back together
And we'll leave the broken pieces on the floor
Make love with me baby
Till we ain't strangers anymore
We're not strangers anymore
We're not strangers
We're not strangers anymore
The Last Night
These days, it's hard to have a heart
It doesn't matter where you come from
or who you think you are
These days, it's hard just fitting in
why does someone have to lose
for someone else to win
We're all looking for forgiviness
and someone we can trust
You can wrap your arms around the world
it all comes down to us
This is the last night
you'll have to be alone
I'll be standing right beside you
You can make it on your own
So walk with me, please
Help me to be strong
I'll be the shoulder you can lean on
When everybody's gone
This is the last night
You'll have to be alone
I know you heard it all before
There's nothing worse than living less
When you yearn for something more
Makes no sense, its hard to understand
When there's something that should fill you up
Keeps slipping through your hands
This is the last night
You'll have to be alone
I'll be standing right beside you
You can make it on your own
So walk with me, please
Help me to be strong
I'll be the shoulder you can lean on
When everybody's gone
This is the last night
You'll have to be alone
We're all looking for answers
We're all down here on our knees
All anybody really wants, is something to believe
Enough is enough, I can't take any more
But I'm standing out your front porch
And kicking down your door
This is the last night
This is the last night
You'll have to be alone
I'll be standing right beside you
You can make it on your own
So walk with me please
Help me to be strong
I'll be the shoulder you can lean on
That place where you belong
This is the last night
You'll have to be alone
This is the the last night (alone)
This is the last night (alone)
This is the last night
You'll have to be alone
One Step Closer
I've seen the heart of darkness
Let's just say, I crossed over that line
Held hands with the hopeless
In too deep, on that ride, went around one more time
When you're standing on the edge
You don't look down
Till you're ready and willing to fly
Now I'm, one step closer
With my arms open wide
Yeah, I'm one step closer
And I'm willing to try this time
I hitched a ride with forgiveness
In that river of emotion
I went down at third time
I spent the night with the living
Took a chance, looked inside
Didn't know who I'd find
Standing on the corner of hello and goodbye
All alone it's there I made up my mind
Yeah, I'm one step closer
With my arms open wide
Well, I'm one step closer
And I'm willing to try
I'm sick of giving up
Oh, with a little luck
I'm gonna get out of here
SOLO
When you're standing on the edge
Don't look down
Till you're ready and willing to fly
I'm one step closer
With my arms open wide
Yeah, I'm one step closer
And I'm willing to try
Yeah, I'm one step closer
Yeah, I'm one step closer
I Love This Town
I always knew that I liked this place
You don't have to look too far to find a friendly face
I feel alive when I'm walking on this street
I feel the heart of the city pounding underneath my feet
Yeah, let the world keep spinning round and round
This is where it all goes down, down, down
That's why I love this town
That's why I keep coming around
Say hey (say hey) say yeah (say yeah)
You make me feel at home somehow right now
That's why I love this town
I got some goods friends here
I mighta broke a heart or two
It's getting loud over there
The boys musta had a few
And a cop on the corner
He knows everybody's name
And a kid with a dream
Singing for some spare loose change
Yeah, let the world keep spinning round and round
This is where it all goes down, down, down
That's why I love this town
That's why I keep coming 'round
Say hey (say hey)
Say yeah (say yeah)
You make me feel at home somehow right now
That's why I love this town
SOLO
They're shouting from the rooftops
Dancing on the bars
Hangin' out the window, driving in their baby's cars
You want it, you got it
You ready, I'm on it
Come on now
Here we go again
That's why I love this town
That's why I love this town
No matter where you're from
Tonight you're from right here
This is where it all goes down, down, down
That's why I love this town
Say hey (say hey)
Say yeah (say yeah)
I love this town
Say hey (say hey)
Say yeah (say yeah)
I love this town
Say hey (say hey)
Say yeah (say yeah)
I love this town
Say hey (say hey)
Say yeah (say yeah)
I love this town
BONUS TRACKS
Lonely (Bonus track on Lost Highway in UK/Japan/Australia)
There's a whole lotta lonely
Waiting out there
There's a whole lot of people
That'll lead you nowhere
So be safe my lover
Let me offer my prayer
There's a whole lotta lonely
Waiting out there
There's a whole lotta kisses
Waiting out there
And the world you been missing
That don't play fair
Let me offer you comfort
And show you how much I care
There's a whole lotta lonely
Waiting out there
When love is blind
sometimes the lies can get you throught the night
I'm holding onto what I need
Til you're too tired to fight
Now there's a lot of lone riders
So baby beware
After the warmth of his whisper
In the cool night air
It'll be hard to wake up to
That handsome cold blank stare
Cause there's a hell of a lot of lonely
Waiting out there
SOLO
When love is blind
sometimes the lies will get you throught the night
I'm holding onto what I need
Til you're too tired to fight
Now there's a whole lotta lonely
Waiting out there

There's only so much sorrow
That a heart can bear
There's a hell of a lot of lonely
Waiting out there
There's a hell of a lotta lonely
Baby I'm scared
Waiting out there
Put The Boy Back In Cowboy (Bonus track on Lost Highway in Japan)
They should've put her in the movies
My little country cutie
She's the reason I believe
God made blue jeans
I was a slicker from the city
When I met that little filly
I was 6 feet tall till she brought me to my knees
I sold my foreign car for a pickup truck
I never drink champagne
Now it's Jack straight up
And you better like Hank here
Or you're outta luck
What's up
She put the boy back in cowboy
Hell, I was just a redneck wannabe
She put the boy back in cowboy
That southern woman made a new man out of me
The transformation was amazing
Even Jesus couldn't save me
Ladies Night I was such a sight to see
At the rodeo she kissed me
Then said "boy don't get too frisky"
If you're lucky, you might two-step home with me
Yeah, I got the boots before the stetson hat
I got a big belt buckle
Trying to rope a calf
And in a ring of fire
And as cool as Johnny Cash
She put the boy back in cowboy
Hell, I was just a redneck wannabe
She put the boy back in cowboy
That southern woman made a new man out of me
That country woman made a new man out of me
Haaaa
SOLO
She put the boy back in cowboy
She put the boy back in cowboy
She's a livewire
Bonfire
Desired to be high
She got me high high high high high
She put the boy back in cowboy
Well, I was just a redneck wannabe
She put the boy back in cowboy
That country woman
She put the boy back in cowboy
Hell, I was just a redneck wannabe
She put the boy back in cowboy
It's sure been nice to make your company
That southern woman made a new man out of me
She put the boy back in cowboy
She put the boy back in cowboy
She put the boy back in cowboy
She put the boy back in
Walk Like A Man (Bonus track on an exclusive Target store version of Lost Highway in the USA)
He said sit down son, we gotta talk
I said it's my life, I'm gonna do what I want
I'm gonna crawl and I'm gonna walk
Walk right out that door
He said I used to be a lot like you
There's nothing you've done that I didn't do
I laughed and said, Dad I'm bullet proof
We've been through this before
I couldn't believe it
There was a tear in my old man's eye
When I was leaving
He tried to say goodbye
He said stand tall when you stumble
Stay proud when you're humble
The lessons you learned
Won't be the ones you that plan
Every step up that mountain
Will be more than worth countin'
But when you walk through the valley
May you walk like a man
I've seen a couple miles on a gravel road
Been taught a couple of things that I didn't know
Now, I even got a kid of my own
Starting to sound a lot like me
I learned a little thing called sacrifice
Givin' up on dreams
Lost a couple fights
All anybody wants is a better life
Something to believe
Stand tall when you stumble
Stay proud when you're humble
Or the lessons you learn
Won't be the ones that you'll plan
Every step up that mountain
Will be more than worth countin'
But when you walk through the valley
May you walk like a man
Yeah
SOLO
I couldn't believe it
And the tears came to my eyes
It isn't easy
Standing on the other side
I said sit down son, we gotta talk
Hey it's your life
You're gonna do what you want
I won't say crawl before you walk
Cause I heard my old man in my mind
He say
Stand tall when you stumble
Stay proud when your humble
Or the lessons you learn
Won't be the ones that you plan
Every step up that mountain
Will be more than worth countin'
But when you walk through the valley
May you walk like a man
And when you go on without me
Walk
Like a man
Oh, oh
Walk on
