1.Didn't Even See the Dust
作詞:Paul Brandt&Steve Rosen
作曲:Paul Brandt&Steve Rosen
Shotgun, everybody get in for the
Long run, don't know where we're going but the
outcome, comes with a little bit of trust
Let's go, following whatever way the
Wind blows, flying with our hands out of the
Window, we didn't even see the Dust
See how far we'd get, driving straight ahead
Getting lost didn't seem to matter much
All we had was time, and a yellow line
Looking back, we didn't even see the dust
(Chorus)
Oh, yeah
We had ups and downs, we got spun around
But we held on when the going got a little tough
It took love and faith, and some give and take
And grace, no, we didn't even see the dust
(Chorus)
Come on now,
Let's go, following whatever way the
Wind blows, flying with our hands out of the
Window, we didn't even see the dust
2.Come On & Get Some
作詞:Paul Brandt&Steve Rosen
作曲:Paul Brandt&Steve Rosen
I love the Country
I ain't never gonna change
Like to get my hands dirty
Like to do it my own way
But don't go lookin down on me
Cause I like my chicken fried
A my my.
Come on and get some
Is what I'd hear my mamma say
After working out in the fields
Hoein rows or bailin hay
That's how it is out here
Honest work for honest pay
A Hey hey
Cause I'm loud
And I'm proud
Like to get up in my pick-up and get down
Flying round the back-roads is how I like to spend my time
I can hang barbed-wire
I love big tires
And havin' fun when my chores are done
But if you think 'cause I'm from the country that I'm dumb
Come on and Get Some
Ain't been to college yet
I ain't got no PhD
But I've got knowledge yeah
Beyond what most folks see
So if you need the job done right
Well you know where I'll be
A whoo eeeee
(Chorus)
Just me and
Verline
Neath the corn rows
plantin' dreams
Aw Shucks
3.Virtual Life
作詞:Paul Brandt
作曲:Paul Brandt
I'm bored
I need a new topic
search the world for another subject
and by the time I find it I've forgotten where I was
iPod and a plasma TV
on the latest reality series
surf the web and I M a bit
while I'm on my cell-phone
I'm high def
and I'm proud of it
and tivo doesn't skip a bit
if I fall asleep I know that I won't ever miss a thing
rewind, record and slow mo
satellite and digital cable
wi-fi, I'm high speed
got a Brooks & Dunn Ringtone
But you can't upload love
And you can't download time
You can't google all life's answers
But everything is gonna be alright
Cause I love you honey
and what we've got's the genuine
real deal
This ain't no
Virtual Life
I need a break
from technology
I think I owe you an apology
I've analyzed our data to quantize the way I feel
been thinking maybe I should
hold you now that would feel real good
a real female instead of e-mail sounds alright to me
Old school
Yeah, a little old fashioned
still don't know how it happened
but now we got 3 kids, a car, and a mortgage of our own
I think I finally got the lowdown
Sometimes we just need to slowdown
take time to smell the roses, pet a dog
and be in love
Ain't nothin like the real thing
4.Worth Fighting For
作詞:Paul Brandt
作曲:Paul Brandt
We've been around in circles 'bout a thousand times
babe it's been so long, and I just don't know why
Does it really even matter who is wrong or right
anymore?
I can't believe I spoke to you that way
And I'm trying to forget the words I heard you say
how our two hearts are holding this much hate and blame
I don't know
I know I can't remember
No I don't know the reason why
we ever started fighting anymore
If we could just loose the temper
and find a way to be more tender
Our love is just too strong to ignore
And that's worth fighting for
It's just foolish pride to hold these feelings back
Cause I look into your eyes and I'm a helpless man
I know you hate it when I try to make you laugh
even so
I want to hold you like I've never done
say I'm sorry long before tomorrow morning comes
show you how I know that I'm the lucky one
Cause babe I know
(Chorus)
5.Risk
作詞:Paul Brandt
作曲:Paul Brandt
I'd rather stand on the edge of a cliff
hang my toes over a bit
and then jump when they dare me
even if it scares me
and I get hurt
I'd rather build my wings on the way down
do my best not to fall to the ground
and then laugh at my mistakes
cause they're only lessons I'll learn
I'd rather burn with desire
deep in my soul
and love like a fire that's
out of control
and laugh
and dance
and fall
and chance
and kiss
I'd rather live my whole life
with a sense of abandon
squeeze every drop out
no matter what happens
and not wonder what I missed
I'd rather
Risk
Oh I just can't resist the chance to
Risk
Well I guess I could just play it safe
and forget about love hope and faith
with my eye on the shoreline
keeping my boat tied
and stayin' home
But I'll never discover new land
by keeping my feet on the sand
No I'd rather set sail
And get carried away by the storm
(Chorus)
6.Country Girl
作詞:Paul Brandt
作曲:Paul Brandt
She's been in 4-H since she was nine years old
She wears overalls and has a heart of gold
She likes ATV'S and trucks, and fishin holes
But she's got a tender side
She don't let nobody tell her what to do
She thinks Jimmy Thompson's smile is kinda cute
She loves her mom and dad and she love's Jesus too
Well some things you just can't hide
She's a wild rose
Pretty as a picture and
hard to hold
off to chase the chickens
She's a little tom-boy
but ain't she beautiful
Look out world She
Ain't afraid
running round barefoot
hair up in braids
but man does she look good
A little tom-boy
but ain't she beautiful
She's a Country Girl
Her mom and them just shake their heads when she runs by
she can't help but turn the head of every guy
If daddy even thinks about that day he cries
but whatcha gonna do?
Then the day her daddy dreaded finally came
the church, the gown, that boy, the rings. the weddin cake
She might be all grown up, but nothin's really changed
7.Hold On
作詞:Nicole Nordeman
作曲:Nicole Nordeman
It will find you at the bottom of a bottle
It will find you at the needle's end
It will find you when you beg and steal and borrow
It will follow you into a stranger's bed
It will find you when they serve you with the papers
It will find you when the locks have changed again
It will find you when you've called in all your favors
It will meet you at the bridge's highest ledge
So baby don't look down- it's a long way
The sun will come around to a new day
So hold on
Love will find you
Hold on
He's right behind you now
Just turn around
And love will find you
It will find you when the doctor's head is shaking
It will find you in a boardroom mostly dead
It will crawl into the foxhole where you're praying
It will curl up in your halfway empty bed
So baby don't believe that it's over
Maybe you can't see 'round the corner
To hang between two thieves in the darkness
Love must believe you are worth it
You're worth it
8.Learning How To Let It Go
作詞:Paul Brandt
作曲:Paul Brandt
I've spent most my life
holdin on with all my might
I pull the reigns too tight
till I kill the thing I got
you'd think by now I'd
have this figured out with everything that we've been through
together
Oh, this love can't really fly until I get the courage up to cut
the string
I'm Learnin How To Let It Go
I'm learnin now that I was just a fool
to ever think I had control
You took me heart and soul
Now I'm learnin how to let it
I'm learnin how to let it go
I've been wasting time
so I hope somehow you'll find
A way to walk the line
you've had so much patience with me
you're the only one I want
you're all I need so here I am down on my knees
Go on and take me everything I have and all I am I give to you
This die-hard heart of mine always forgets
You never have it all unless you let it go
You took me heart and soul
I'm learnin how to let it
I'm learnin how to let it go
9.Scars are Beautiful
作詞:Paul Brandt
作曲:Paul Brandt
I've got this little scar that left it's mark down underneath my
chin
from when I fell off of my bike back when I was just a kid
and oh, the pain, and how I cried, and I still remember how it
bled
I know I won't forget that time and what my daddy said
Don't cry
It'll get better
In time
You'll soon forget
You'll be fine
right now it hurts some
but the healing hasn't happened yet
The pain
won't always be there
and someday
after the fall
These scrapes and scratches will remind you
of the hurt you left behind and you'll see that
Scars are beautiful
Each scar is living proof, ya they tell the truth 'bout places
that you've been
They're all roadmaps to life's lessons made by sacrifice and sin
And you can let 'em bring you down or you can hold your head up
high
Don't let the chance you took to fall keep you from the chance
you take to try
10.A Friend Like This
作詞:Paul Brandt&Steve Rosen
作曲:Paul Brandt&Steve Rosen
I know what you're going through
there were times I've been there too
we all need a shoulder to cry on
all those worries and anxieties
just let me put your mind at ease
cause the night is always darkest before the dawn
Yeah it's alright
it's gonna be ok
you don't have to worry anymore
Yeah it's alright
just let me light up the way
you never had a friend like this before
Sometimes it seems the road ahead
is twists and turns and all dead ends
it's hard to know which way to go
But I will be your life long friend
the one on whom you can depend
even when it seems like you're alone
Because it's alright
yeah, it's gonna be ok
you don't have to worry anymore
Yeah it's alright
It's gonna be a brighter day
you don't have to worry anymore
you never had a friend like this before
Because it's alright
yeah, it's gonna be ok
you don't have to worry anymore
Yeah it's alright
It's gonna be a bright new day
you don't have to worry anymore
you never had a friend like this before
never had a friend like this
you've never had a friend like this before
11.The Little Space Between
作詞:Paul Brandt
作曲:Paul Brandt
It's now or never
Don't hesitate
It ain't true that good things come
to those who wait
Before forever
Takes all our time
We just spend moments
Till we spend our lives
Get 'er done
Get to it
Cause there's only one time through it
There's only one thing we're all heading for
It goes 1972 dash then
You leave your legacy
In that little space between
Have you forgiven
Did you forget
Is it worth keeping
All those regrets
And is there someone
Who gave it all for you
Don't that make you
Want to give it your all to?
You spend your money
You take each breath
You steal some kisses
You give and get
and then it goes
12.Out Here On My Own
作詞:Paul Brandt
作曲:Paul Brandt
The high-wire act is done
Safety net, don't need one
Once you fall, it's freedom and a song
I'm out here on my own
Out here on my own
With the Lord to guide me
And your prayers behind me, I feel strong
I'm out here on my own
And as I dream of you beside me
Love and faith still lead me through
And every road I take reminds me
I'm comin' home to you
Out here on my own
If the spotlights dimmer
And the crowds grow thinner
And I'll be home for
Dinner
With my songs
Instead of out here on my own
I'm out here on my own
