- A Hard Secret to Keep
i stay up late and read a lot at night.
lately she’s begun to wonder why.
she don’t know i’m scared that i’ll start
talking in my sleep.
you’re a hard secret to keep.
and every time she asks me where i’ve been
a cheaters paranoia begins.
scrambling for an answer anything she might believe.
- Bubba Shot The Jukebox
We were all down at Margie's bar
Telling stories if we had one
Someone fired the old jukebox up
The song it sure was a sad one
A teardrop rolled down Bubba's nose
From the pain the song was inflicting
- Come On In The Whiskey's Fine
Got lost hunting Coon
In the Carolina Mountains
Somewhere outside of Boone
We were just about to panic
When 'ol Lendyl saw the sign
It said, "Come on in! The whiskey's fine."
That old shack looked abandoned
- Gonna Get A Life
Gotta find somethin' to ease my mind
Gotta get it off of you
You tear at my heart strings one more time
With what you're puttin' me through
I'm not much on hangin' around
Where I'm not wanted at all
I'm not gonna be your love sick clown
Waitin' for your beck and call
- Talking To Hank
Mark Chesnutt – Talking To Hank Lyrics
While I was hunting wild turkey and sippin' on Jim Beam
I walked up on something like I've never seen
So deep in the woods where I thought I was alone
Stood a structure where something or someone called home
I saw a shotgun and guitar and six- pack of beer
A sign on the front door said guess who lives here
An old red bone hound that looked older than time
- Try Being Me
You say you don't know where to start
Telling me is breakin' your heart
It's not that you don't care for me
It's just that you're not in love anymore
You stare at the floor
You say it's no one's fault that feelings change
And you'd rather not get into blame
- Useless
The day you left I thought I knew for certain
There's no way in this world I'd wind up hurtin'
I thought getting over you was gonna be a breeze
So it all came as quite a shock when it turned out to be
Useless as these empty arms
Useless as this broken heart
Useless as these nights I spend alone
- Wherever You Are
I know it's you that I'm waitin' on
The less we promise of our first kiss
Keeps me hangin'' on through times like this
So wherever you are I'm thinkin' of you
Wonder if you're thinkin' of me too
'Cause only so long time can keep us apart
So until we meet, keep me in your heart
- Woman
Woman, woman I know you better
Probably even better
Than you even know yourself by now
Now woman, where do you think you're going?
You know you're not going
To get any further than your mama's house
Before you turn around and come running back
