  1. I Do All My Dreamin' There

    You know I got me a spot somewhere
    Come on

    There's a little place down the old road
    Nobody but me and the whole world knows
    Been going there ever since I was a kid
    On my red dirt bike, and my blue texan
    Spend a lot long summer nights
    With the hood out in the satellites
    Ain't the kind of place that I ever shared
    But come on with me, and let me take you where

    I do my barber sinking
    Peanut butter sandwich eatin'
    Watching the world go by
    Where I've done some beer crackin'
    Crying, praying, laughin'
    Just talking to the man in the sky
    Baby, jump on in
    There's a huckleberry limb
    We can leave our cut offs and our cares
    Who knows what can happen
    When the summer's sweet jasmine in the air
    I do all my dreamin' there!

    There's a big oak on the other side
    Where I took my grandpa's pocket knife
    And I carved their names with tears in my eyes
    When we join grandma, and the by and by
    Got them right here in the dashboard box
    Tip broke off and the blade don't lock
    But I'd better carve our names just fine
    If you wanna come along with me next time

    I do my barber sinking
    Peanut butter sandwich eatin'
    Watching the world go by
    Where I've done some beer crackin'
    Crying, praying, laughin'
    Just talking to the man in the sky
    Baby, jump on in
    There's a huckleberry limb
    We can leave our cut offs and our cares
    Who knows what can happen
    With the summer's sweet jasmine in the air
    I do all my dreamin' there!

    Yeah, I done some barber sinking
    Peanut butter sandwich eatin'
    Watching the world go by
    Where I've done some beer crackin'
    Crying, praying, laughin'
    Just talking to the big man in the sky

    Baby, jump on in, there's a huckleberry limb
    We can leave our cut offs and our cares
    Who knows what can happen
    With the summer's sweet jasmine in the air
    I do all my dreamin' there!

    Right there, ha ha ha!

  2. Here's To The Farmer

    Talk about an uphill battle
    Two thousand acres of beans and cattle
    But he don't ever get rattled
    He just goes 'til the sun goes down
    Hydraulic fluid on his jeans
    Red dye diesel and ten rows between
    A cold one on the porch and a good nights of sleep
    Y'all hold 'em up with me now

    Here's to the farmer that plants the fields in the spring
    That turn from green to that harvest honey
    Hold one up for the banker downtown
    That got him on his feet with handshake money
    Here's to the farmer's wife
    That loves him every night
    Raising a son, raising a daughter
    They gather 'round the table, send it up to the Father
    Somehow they get closer when times get harder
    Here's to the farmer

    Subdivision's creeping on in
    Neighborhood kids keep jumping his fence
    He could double his money
    But that'd be the end of a promise he'll never break
    'Cause he looked his daddy in the eye
    And he's got that stubborn pride
    He'll be here 'til the day he dies
    No, he wouldn't have it any other way

    Here's to the farmer that plants the fields in the spring
    That turn from green to that harvest honey
    Hold one up for the banker downtown
    That got him on his feet with handshake money
    Here's to the farmer's wife
    That loves him every night
    Raising a son, raising a daughter
    They gather 'round the table, send it up to the Father
    Somehow they get closer when times get harder
    Here's to the farmer

    Yeah, here's to the farmer that loves his day in the sun
    Won't sell that old half-ton
    Nobody knows better 'bout a hard-earned dollar
    Just tell him how far he's gotta go and he'll go further
    Here's to the farmer
    Here's to the farmer
    Thank you, boys

  3. Love Me In A Field

    Don't need a hotel or a high rise
    A big old bunk bed a fancy name
    I don't need a backseat, don't need no rusty truck
    We could leave that dust on that old porch swing

    Let's get tangled in the tassels of some ten foot corn
    Tear our t-shirts in the cotton patch behind the barn
    Get lost out on the grass bring your blanket in the beach
    Tear up some turnip rings or find some up on a hill
    Baby love me in a field

    Now we got that California king
    In the back of that Georgia double wire
    And I'm about to bust out the seams
    When I get you to the country side
    What's that sound like to you?
    Cuz it sounds dang good to me
    Just hit me with a smile when you're ready to leave

    Let's get tangled in the tassels of some ten foot corn
    Tear our t-shirts in the cotton patch behind the barn
    Get lost out on the grass bring your blanket in the beach
    Tear up some turnip rings or find some up on a hill
    Baby love me in a field

    Find an old pasture
    Where the cows ain't
    Been for a while
    Wanna see your blue eyes
    Where the flowers go wild
    Little after midnight
    Morning dew
    On our skin

    I'm sure that nobody, nobody know where we've been.

    Let's get tangled in the tassels of some ten foot corn
    Tear our t-shirts in the cotton patch behind the barn
    Get lost out on the grass bring your blanket in the beach
    Tear up some turnip rings or find some up on a hill
    Baby love me in a field

  4. You Look Like Rain

    You and your Sunday mornings
    Me and my Saturday nights
    You and all your colors
    Me and my black and whites
    You and your lace and cotton
    Up against my whiskey skin
    Saving me the way you always do it

    Cause I'm hell up here on the high wire
    You're the hallelujah kind
    I'm the dust that spins
    And the gust of wind that's blowing by
    I'm a desert dry
    And in my thirsty eyes
    You look like rain

    You and your stained glass windows
    Me and my cracked windshield
    You and your quiet view
    Me and my kins of steel

    Cause I'm hell up here on the high wire
    You're the hallelujah kind
    I'm the dust that spins
    And the gust of wind that's blowing by
    I'm a desert dry
    And in my thirsty eyes
    You look like rain

    Girl I'm hell up here on the high wire
    You're the hallelujah kind
    I'm the dust that spins
    And the gust of wind that's blowing by
    I'm a desert dry
    And in my thirsty eyes
    You look like rain
    You look like rain
    You look like rain
    You look like rain
    You look like rain
    You're my sweet rain

  5. Southern Gentleman

    You looked at me like I was crazy,
    When I said mam'm to that little old lady
    You ain't heard talk like that lately,
    But I can see, it's got you smilin'

    And you say you still remember,
    our first date me cookin' you dinner
    And how I didn't even try to
    kiss you at the end of the date
    Cause I was raised to

    Stand up when you walk in the door,
    Spin you around an old heart pine floor
    Rock you baby on a wraparound porch,
    Underneath a magnolia blossom

    Walk you down old live oak road,
    Barefoot bridge see a sunset show
    Say I love you when I pull you close,
    and you know it's true, as the gospel
    Ain't nobody gonna love you better than,
    this southern gentleman

    I'm gonna, open up these plantation blinds,
    to the sun coming up in your pretty blue eyes
    Tell you you're beautiful a thousand times a day
    'Til your in love with the way that I

    Stand up when you walk in the door,
    Spin you around an old heart pine floor
    Rock you baby on a wraparound porch,
    Underneath a magnolia blossom

    Walk you down old live oak road,
    Barefoot bridge see a sunset show
    Say I love you when I pull you close,
    and you know it's true, as the gospel
    Ain't nobody gonna love you better than,
    this southern gentleman

    Girl I'm gonna take you on a trip like back in time
    Just put your hand in mine, and won't you

    Stand up when you walk in the door,
    Spin you around an old heart pine floor
    Rock you baby on a wraparound porch,
    Underneath a magnolia blossom

    Walk you down old live oak road,
    Barefoot bridge see a sunset show
    Say I love you when I pull you close,
    and you know it's true, as the gospel
    Ain't nobody gonna love you better than,
    this southern gentleman
