brad paisley - flowers

Long stem things of beauty
Created by the good Lord
Cut down in the prime of their lives
Boxed up, wrapped in paper
Delivered to your front door
Just to wind up in your garbage can outside

[Chorus]
Tell me how many flowers have to die
Before you give this love another try
I've asked you to forgive me at least 9 dozen times
Tell me how many flowers have to die

I'm crazy and I'm desperate
I had you and I blew it
And right now I've got nothing left to lose
I've got a Visa in my wallet
And I'm not afraid to use it
How long the needless violence lasts
Is really up to you

[Repeat chorus]

Stop the senseless killing
Can't you hear the roses cry
Baby, how many flowers have to die
Tell me how many flowers have to die

brad paisley - penguin james penguin

Well the reindeer pull the sleigh
And the elves make the toys
Those are the stories that are well known to all
Little girls and boys

But I've got another story
That I bet you haven't heard
Did you know that Santa
Has a secret agent bird

He's Penguin, James Penguin
That dapper little guy
Like a well dressed duck in a three piece tux
He's Santa's secret spy

Have you ever wondered
How Santa keeps tabs
How he knows when you've been good
How he knows when you've been bad

He's Penguin, James Penguin
That dapper little guy
Like a well dressed duck in a three piece tux
He's Santa's secret spy

From an undisclosed location
He's watching me and you
He's got satellite uplinks in his cufflinks
Yeah he sees everything you do

He's Penguin, James Penguin
That dapper little guy
Like a well dressed duck in a three piece tux
He's Santa's secret spy

Not so very long ago
Santa didn't need much help
But with more and more kids every year
He soon got overwhelmed
He told the elves one Christmas
We can't do this anymore
Then a knight in shining polyester
Waddled through his door

And it was Penguin, James Penguin
He was there to save the day
He had wireless
And GPS outfitted on the sleigh

And Santa said Penguin
Won't you be my ears and eyes
How'd you like to help me run
My SCFBI

He's Penguin, James Penguin
And now I guess you've heard
How Santa got his little Christmas
Secret Agent Bird

brad paisley - country nation

We work in the factories and the fields
Assembly lines and coal mines and the steel mills
That's what we do but there's more than us than that
If you want to know who we are it son the logos of our caps

We're Mountaineers, volunteers
We're the tide that rolls, we're Seminoles
We're the herd the long steer
We drive Ford and Chevrolet
Shoot twenty-four and eighty-eight
We crank up our music Friday nights
On two thousand country stations
Yeah, we're one big country nation, that's right

We might fix your water pump, your Ac
Bring your apple pie, and fill your glass of tea
Take that Fedex package to your door
But underneath that apron or that uniform

We're Wild Cats, Wolverines
We're Tigers, Buckeyes, Bruins
Bulldogs, Hogs, and Hurricanes
We pray before we race
Cheer fourteen and forty-eight
We drink ice-cold beer on Friday nights
Yeah, we're one big country nation, that's right
We're all across the map
Down city streets and old dirt roads
We're the fabric of this nation
And we're a nation on our own

We're Mountaineers, volunteers
We're Devils, Heels, and Rebels
Fighting Irish and Cavaliers
We supe up our Chevrolets
Cheer twenty-four and eighty-eight
And we crank up the same songs Friday night
On two thousand country stations
Yeah, we're one big country nation, that's right

brad paisley - out in the parking lot

I'm sittin' on the fender of someone else's truck
Drinkin' Old Crow Whiskey and hot 7 Up
Out in the parkin' lot

You can hear the band playin'
Right through the walls
Ain't no cover charge
Ain't no last call
Out in the parkin' lot

(Chorus:)
Yeah, I love to see the neon dancin' on the gravel
And I love to hear the pickup trucks as they come unraveled
Some 've given up
Some 've given in
Looks like everybody's lookin' for a friend
Out in the parkin' lot

Whoops, there's a couple
Who could not wait to get home
They're probably in love so let's leave them alone
Out in the parkin' lot

There's a couple of cowboys
Puttin' up their dukes
But there weren't much to it after both of 'em puked
Out in the parkin' lot

(Chorus)

Now the band is on the bus
And they're all loaded up to leave
But the drummer's got a girlfriend
And she's tuggin' at his sleeve
Out in the parkin' lot

(Chorus)

I'm sittin' on the fender of someone else's truck
Drinkin' Old Crow Whiskey and hot 7 Up
Out in the parkin' lot

brad paisley - love is never ending

Seasons come and seasons go
One day sun, the next day snow
Flowers die and flowers grow
But love is never-ending

You can't kill it with goodbye
It always finds a place to hide
Inside your heart for your whole life
Love is never-ending

[Chorus]
When the lights have all gone down
It'll still be hangin' 'round
Even when you think it's lost, it can still be found
When every memory has been made
And the pages start to fade
And every prayer you ever prayed is heaven bound
When you think the ride is over
You're back at the beginning
Love is never-ending

When a man and woman start growin' old
The fire of passion may grow cold
But what they got still warms their soul
Love is never-ending

[Repeat chorus]

It keeps goin' on and on
Long after we're all gone away

Time may change what you believe
But one day the truth will set you free
Just have faith and you will see
Love is never-ending
Love is never-ending

brad paisley - behind the clouds

When you're feeling lonely, lost and let down
Seems like those dark skies are following you around
And life's just one big shade of gray
You wonder if you'll see the light of day

(chorus)
Behind the clouds, the sun is shining
Believe me even though you can't quite make it out
You may not see the silver lining
But there's a big blue sky waiting right behind the clouds

I've heard it said that this too shall pass
Good times or bad times, neither one lasts
But thinking that your luck won't ever change
Is like thinking it won't ever stop once it starts to rain

(chorus)
Behind the clouds, the sun is shining
Believe me even though you can't quite make it out
You may not see the silver lining
But there's a big blue sky waiting right behind the clouds
Yeah, there's a big blue sky waiting right behind the clouds

brad paisley - this is country music

You're not supposed to say
the word "cancer" in a song
And tellin' folks jesus is the answer
can rub 'em wrong
It ain't hip to sing about tractors,
trucks, little towns, and mama,
yeah that might be true
But this is country music and we do

Do you like to drink
a cold one on the weekend,
and get a little loud
Do you wanna say I'm sorry or I love ya,
but you don't know how?
Do you wish somebody had the nerve
To tell that stupid boss of yours,
To shove it next time
he yells at you?
Well this is country music and we do.

So turn it on, turn it up,
and sing along
This is real,
this is your life in a song
Yeah this is country music

Are you haunted by the echo
of your mother on the phone
Cryin as she tells you
that your brother is not coming home?
And if there's anyone that still
has pride and the memory of those.
That died defending
the old red, white, and blue,
This is country music and we do

So turn it on, turn it up, and sing a long
This is real; this is your life in a song
Just like a road that takes you home
Yeah this is right where you belong
This is country music
This is country music
You stop lovin her today
Hello dolly
God bless the usa
Amarillo by the morning
Stand by your man
Mamma drive
Take me home
I walk the line
So country boy can survive

brad paisley - camouflage

Kevin wasn't really all that popular in school
But I remember well when I thought that guy is pretty cool
He pulled into the parking lot and everybody cheered
Because he had gone and painted his Chevy Cavalier Camouflage

Camouflage it disappears when it pulls out of his garage
Camouflage-Camouflage

I asked Penny to the prom and her mom knew how to sew
so she made a matching tux and gown from Duckline Mossy Oak
We took pictures in the backyard before we went to the dance
And the only thing you can see is our faces and our hands

Camouflage, Camouflage
Camouflage you seen have seen the way it popped with her corsage
Camouflage, Camouflage, ain't nothing that doesn't go with Camouflage

You can blend in in the country
you can stand out in the fashion world
being invisible to a white tail and irresistible to redneck girl

Camouflage, Camouflage
Oh you're my favorite color Camouflage

You can blend in in the country
you can stand out in the fashion world
being invisible to a white tail and irresistible to redneck girl

Well the stars and bars offends some folks and I guess I see why
nowadays theres still a way to show your southern pride
the only thing is patriotic as the old red white and blue
is green and gray and black and brown and tan all over too

Camouflage, Camouflage
designed by mother nature and by god

Camouflage, Camouflage
Oh you're my favorite color Camouflage

brad paisley - if love was a plane

Sheâ??s 98 pounds
Working down at the Dairy Queen
With an Ogilvie home perm and braces
And heâ??s long-haired, no job and just 19
They got a baby on the way
And theyâ??re off to the races in...

Love
Look at â??em go
Now what in the world could go wrong
Donâ??t tell them the odds
Itâ??s best they donâ??t know
If love was a plane
Nobodyâ??d get on

At The Ivy at lunchtime in Beverly Hills
The paparazzi are gathered outside
â??Cause an actor and an actress are having lunch
And according to Extra and Entertainment Tonight
Theyâ??re in

Imagine now the pilotâ??s voice
On the intercom right before
We leave the ground
Saying folks thanks for flying with us
But thereâ??s a 6 in 10 chance
Weâ??re going down

But thatâ??s the strangest thing
About this emotion
Even knowing our chances are small
We line up at the gate with our tickets
Thinking somehow weâ??re different
I mean after all weâ??re in

Love
Look at us go
Now what in the world could go wrong
To hell with the odds
Weâ??d rather not know
If love was a plane
Nobodyâ??d get on
Yeah, if love was a plane
Nobodyâ??d get on

brad paisley - somebody knows you now

You used to say you wanted someone to know you inside out
And as I look back on things well congratulations baby
Somebody knows you now

All of this time you told me you wished that you could figure yourself out
You say you're still a mystery but no not really not to me
Yeah somebody knows you now

Chorus
I got a hundred bucks that says right now your hair's up in a clip
Your socks don't quite match and you're bitin' your lip
I can finish your thoughts or pick the right restaurants
Even order for you 'fore you sit down
Yeah somebody knows you now

So no matter where your life's path leads
Remember me somehow
And feel a little warm inside knowin' that somewhere tonight
Somebody knows you now

Well baby all your mystery
Like you and me is history
'Cause somebody knows you now

brad paisley - hard life

Stop starin' at me
Leave the sad looks at home
Everybody feels bad
And you don't understand
It's not like I'm alone

'Cause everyone has battles to fight
And I don't need your sympathy tonight

Yeah, it's a hard life
But I'm okay
If I didn't have this, I wouldn't be who I am today
And I have lots of friends
Oh, and I have love
And yeah, I have a hard life but in some ways everybody does

There's a lot I can't do
But don't be judgin me
I'm in a body I hate
But I have my faith, more then what you see

So what if I can't kick a soccer ball into a goal?
I feel like I can lift 500 pounds with my soul

Yeah, it's a hard life
Oh, but I'm okay
If I didn't have this, I wouldn't be who I am today
And I have lots of friends
Oh, and I have love
Yeah, I have a hard life but in some ways everybody does

And some like me have lost their battle
But they will be the sun that gives you warmth
And lights the way so we can shine on

Yeah, it's a hard life
But I'm okay
If I didn't have this, I wouldn't be who I am today
And I have lots of friends
Oh, and I have love
Yeah, I have a hard life but in some ways everybody does
Yeah, I have a hard life but in some ways everybody does

brad paisley - moonshine in the trunk

Got a '69 Camaro with a Ram Jet 502
I could win the pole at Bristol, baby
But I'm ridin' 'round with you
Bored as hell we might as well
Burn this tank of gas
'Cause if we're goin' nowhere, girl
Let's go nowhere fast

Like there's moonshine in the trunk
And blue lights on our tail
Like if we get caught they're gonna haul us off to jail
Like we're helpin' out Uncle Jesse
Makin' a midnight run
Let's drive tonight like this whole county's dry
And there's moonshine in the trunk

Well they say that's how the Duke boys
And Nascar started out
They were haulin' bootleg liquor
And look where they are now
Chances are I gotta Mason jar Rollin' 'round in the back
That white lightnin's long gone
But it shouldn't be hard to act

Whoa, oh, oh
Let's pretend we're runnin' from the law
Whoa, oh, oh
Like we're the Bonnie and Clyde of alcohol

brad paisley - better than this

That sleepy little campfire
Popped and kinda crackled
We were heating up
The pork and beans
And Bubba said
Man, it donâ??t get any better than this
If you know what I mean
We sat there for a minute
Listening to the crickets
Thinking this was pretty hard to beat
â??Til Junior stood up
Spit in the fire and said
Boys, I hate to disagree

But if a busload of women
Really good-looking women
Just suddenly pulled in here
And olâ?? Joe T. Garcia
Showed up with fajitas
And a hundred gallon keg of beer
And Haggard dropped by
And brought Willie with him
And they started taking requests
Now donâ??t get me wrong boys
This is pretty good
But it could get better than this

If Bill Dance and Hank Parker
Floated by in a boat
And volunteered to be our fishing guides
And Richard Petty
Pulled up in the old 43 car
And asked us if we wanted a ride
Weâ??d all sit around
Singing â??Poncho And Leftyâ?
Playing poker, smoking big cigars
Now donâ??t take offense yâ??all
Iâ??m perfectly content
Just sitting here under the stars

But if a busload of women
Really good-looking women
Just suddenly pulled in here
And olâ?? Emeril Lagasse
Showed up with kielbasa
And a hundred gallon keg of beer
And then Haggard dropped by
And brought Willie with him
And they started taking requests
Now donâ??t get me wrong boys
This is pretty good
But it could get better than this

But if a busload of women
Really good-looking women
Just suddenly pulled in here
And Little Jimmy Dickens
Showed up with fried chicken
And a hundred gallon keg of beer
Merle Haggard dropped by
And brought Willie with him
And they started taking requests
Now donâ??t get me wrong boys
This is pretty good
But it could get better than this
Yeah, donâ??t get me wrong boys
This is pretty good
But it could
get better than this

brad paisley - river bank

brad paisley - rainin you

When I looked out today
And saw that the sky was gray
I thought about the way
You loved days like this

And driving in to town
It really started coming down
Bringing me back around
To all that I miss

It feels like it's rainin' you
It feels like it's rainin' you

I didn't even run inside
Or worry about staying dry
Besides there nowhere I can hide
From these feeling now

Running down my face
Takes me to another place
I can't think of another way to drown

It feels like it's rainin' you
I can't explain it
But I am baptized anew
It feels like it's rainin' you

If I had my way
It would do this every day
I would never see the sun
Because the closest I get
To holding you again
Is every time that sky opens up

It feels like it's rainin' you
I can't explain it
But I am baptized anew
It feels like it's rainin' you
It feels like it's rainin' you
