Midnight Special

Uncle Kracker Midnight Special歌詞
1.It Is What It Is

Jimmy keeps a picture of Jamie in his Wallet
But everybody knows that Jamie's in the closet
Katey's in the corner got her Prozac gone
She only likes to dance to the Kid Rock songs

Shally slings drink till a half past two
Always looking like she got something better to do
And I'm sittin' here in all my glory
Everybody got a Beer everybody got a Story

It is what it is and it ain't what it ain't
It's life and it's love and it ain't gonna change
It's a beautiful mess
I don't wanna miss
It sits in the spins and it is what it is
It is what it is

Randy got a good job drivin' a truck
He got a Black Jack habit but he got no luck
And Kim had a Kid she named Cincinnati
Cause that's the last place that she saw his Daddy
And I'm sittin' here in all my glory
Everybody got a Beer everybody got a Story

It is what it is and it ain't what it ain't
It's life and it's love and it ain't gonna change
It's a beautiful mess
I don't wanna miss
It sits in the spins and it is what it is

Dollar Bills disappear into the Juke Box
From sweet Caroline to Love on the Rocks
I'm sittin' here cause that's what I do
Enough about me let's talk about you

It is what it is and it ain't what it ain't
It's life and it's love and it ain't gonna change
It's a beautiful mess
I don't wanna miss
It sits in the spins and it is

It is what it is and it ain't what it ain't
It's life and it's love and it ain't gonna change
It's a beautiful mess
I don't wanna miss
It sits in the spins and it is what it is
It is what it is

Oh yeah
It is what it is

Dollar Bills disappear into the Juke Box
From sweet Caroline to Love on the Rocks
It is what it is
It is what it is

And I'm sittin' here in all my glory
Everybody got a Beer everybody got a Story
It is what it is


2.You Got That Thang

You walk in with a crooked smile
Yeah your hair's a little out of style
But ooh, you got that thang

You're in and out of relationships
Your nail polish is always chipped
But ooh, you got that thang

The way you drink, the way you trip
The way you bite your bottom lip
Oh baby
The way you slip, the way you slide
The way you walk, the way you drive
Me crazy

You twirl around in your thrift store dress
You go to church but you don't confess
Ohh, you got that thang

You're in my head like an 80s song
And I just can't help but sing along

The way you tell me that I ain't your type
And then you text me around midnight
Ooh, you got that thang

The way you drink, the way you trip
The way you bite your bottom lip
Oh baby
The way you slip, the way you slide
The way you walk, the way you drive
Me crazy

Like a flower landin' on a bee
One day you're gonna fall for me
Ooh, you got that thang

You're in my head like an 80s song
And I just can't help but sing along

You walk in with a crooked smile
Yeah your hair's a little out of style
But ooh, you got that thang
Ooh you got that thang


3.I'd Be There

Not a minute goes by, that you ain't on my mind.
Not a place in my heart, that you don't occupy.
I miss you.

If I could. I would crawl through the phone.
Yeah, this drink gets me by, but it don't get me home.
Are you sleeping? I ain't sleeping.

So I wrote you a song, cause it's been so long.
Since I looked in your eyes.
If there was a way I could see you today
And hold your sweet sweet smile.
I'd be there, I'd be there
I'd be there.

I'm watching the clock, but the clock doesn't care.
I'm the star of the show called, 'I wish I was there.'
Babe, I miss you.

And thinking of you puts a smile on my face.
And it makes me forget that I hate this place.
I've been dreaming.
But I still ain't sleeping.

So I wrote you a song, cause it's been so long.
Since I looked in your eyes.
If there was a way I could see you today
And hold your sweet sweet smile.
I'd be there, I'd be there
I'd be there.

Not a minute goes by, that you ain't on my mind.
Not a place in my heart, that you don't occupy.
I miss you.

So I wrote you a song, cause it's been so long.
Since I looked in your eyes.
If there was a way I could see you today
And hold your sweet sweet smile.
I'd be there, I'd be there, I'd be there, I'd be there

I'd be there.


4.Four Letter Word

One day you could care less,
Struttin' like a hot mess,
Prom dress layin' on the floor.
Then you go from cheap thrill
To absolutely buzz kill,
Always tryin' to even the score.

You're like a sexy little psycho
With an automatic rifle
And I like the way you do what you do, oh

You always got me beggin' of a four letter word
You get my motor runnin' or you get on my nerves
You make me wanna kiss you or just flip you the bird
You always got me beggin' of a four letter word
Oh, you got me beggin' of a four letter word

Sweet like honeysuckle,
Shinin' of my buckle,
Dancin' like it ain't gonna end.
I can almost taste it,
Take a shot and chase it,
Wasted like the clothes on your skin.

I swear you get me cussin'
When you're pushin' on my buttons
Call me crazy, but I'm crazy for you.

You always got me beggin' of a four letter word
You get my motor runnin' or you get on my nerves
You make me wanna kiss you or just flip you the bird
You always got me beggin' of a four letter word
Oh, you got me beggin' of a four letter word

You're like a sexy little psycho
With an automatic rifle
And I like the way you do what you do.
I swear you get me cussin'
When you're pushin' on my buttons
Call me crazy, but I'm crazy for you.

You always got me beggin' of a four letter word
You get my motor runnin' or you get on my nerves
You make me wanna kiss you or just flip you the bird
You always got me beggin' of a four letter word

You always got me beggin' of a four letter word
You get my motor runnin' or you get on my nerves
You make me wanna kiss you or just flip you the bird
You always got me beggin' of a four letter word
Oh, you got me beggin' of a four letter word
Four letter word
Four letter word
Four letter word
Four letter word


5.Blue Skies

Embers in the ashtray,
Six-pack down behind my seat,
One hand up on the wheel,
Eat A Peach playin' on repeat.
Got my baby at my side,
Her hair whippin' all in the wind,
The last time I felt this good,
I can't remember when...

Listen to the Goodyear's roll
Hummin' through the radio
Let it lighten up your load
Ain't got no place to go.
Watching those fence poles fly,
As the miles roll by,
Nothin' but blue skies,
Hangin' over you and I.

Ain't lookin' for direction,
Don't need it if it don't come free,
A billboard says 'Trust the Lord'
A piece of country I ain't never seen.
Nobody wavin' in the rearview,
Just put the pedal to the floor and drive
Don't it feel so good to you?
I feel so alive...

Listen to the Goodyear's roll
Hummin' through the radio
Let it lighten up your load
Ain't got no place to go.
Watching those fence poles fly,
As the miles roll by,
Nothin' but blue skies,
Hangin' over you and I.

Her painted toes on the dash,
Her hand on my knee
She ain't looking out the window
Cause she's too busy lookin' at me
Yeah

Listen to the Goodyear's roll
Hummin' through the radio
Let it lighten up your load
Ain't got no place to go.
Watching those fence poles fly,
As the miles roll by,
Nothin' but blue skies,
Hangin' over you and I.
Nothin' but blue skies,
Hangin' over you and I.


6.When I Close My Eyes

Guess I never thought again I'd hear your voice
When you packed your bags and pulled out of Detroit
Yeah the snow falls alone get hard to bear
Knowin' you're down south with sunshine on your hair
Sent a postcard from Graceland when you passed through
Read even though we lost, I still love you
I keep it like a locket on a chain
I tell myself that I've moved on but only half the way

And every time I close my eyes
You're dancin' 'neath the full moonlight
Your faded jeans across the hood
My arms wrapped 'round you tight and good
And I'm wiser than I was that day
Now I'd have some words to say
Ones that just might make you stay with me
That's only when I close my eyes

Latelt I've been talkin' to God again
And a string of things I didn't do back then
No doubt I'm better off havin' had you
Yeah you taught me how to love
Taught me how to lose it too

And every time I close my eyes
You're dancin' 'neath the full moonlight
Your faded jeans across the hood
My arms wrapped 'round you tight and good
And I'm wiser than I was that day
Now I've have some words to say
Ones that just might make you stay with me
That's only when I close my eyes

And every time I close my eyes
You're dancin' 'neath the full moonlight
Your faded jeans across the hood
My arms wrapped 'round you tight and good
And I'm wiser than I was that day
Now I'd have some words to say
The ones that just might make you stay with me
That's only when I close my eyes
When I close my eyes


7.In Between Disasters

There's a rumour in town, that I've gone off the deep end.
Cause the last girl around, left me all busted up.
So I drove down to the coast for the weekend,
But that don't mean I've given up on love.

I'm just floatin' on the ocean in a holding pattern
Just a little breather 'til I jump back in
Need a break on the breaks before my poor heart shatters
I think I'll just hang for a while,
In between disasters.

You might see this face, somewhere south of Daytona,
It's hard to look lonely with a three day tan.
Got a Zac Brown koozie wrapped around my Corona,
I might get lucky and wake up in the sand.

I'm just floatin' on the ocean in a holding pattern
Just a little breather 'til I jump back in
Need a break on the breaks before my poor heart shatters
I think I'll just hang for a while,
In between disasters.

There's a rumour in town, that I've gone off the deep end.
Cause the last girl around, left me all busted up.
So I drove down to the coast for the weekend,
And I ain't been back in at least six months.

I've been floatin' on the ocean in a holding pattern
Just a little breather 'til I jump back in
Need a break on the breaks before my poor heart shatters
I think I'll just hang for a while...

I've been floatin' on the ocean in a holding pattern
Just a little breather 'til I jump back in
Need a break on the breaks before my poor heart shatters
I think I'll just hang for a while...
In between disasters.


8.Happy

You spark the stars, you wear a smile
Like every day's your birthday

Summertime is in your eyes, even on a rainy Thursday
Look at you, spinning around
Like the world's your merry-go-round
And there's no stopping you now

Wherever you are, I hope that you're laughing
Whoever you're with, I hope that you're having
The time of your life and everything's right
Whatever you wish, I hope that you get it
When love walks in, I hope that you let it
And baby be glad when you look back at me
I'll never be sad as long as you're happy

You leave your mark on every heart
If no one ever tells ya
So paint your name on the rain
The world is your umbrella

Look at you spinning and spinning
Sometimes goodbye is just the beginning

Wherever you are, I hope that you're laughing
Whoever you're with, I hope that you're having
The time of your life and everything's right
Whatever you wish, I hope that you get it
When love walks in, I hope that you let it
Baby be glad when you look back at me
I'll never be sad as long as you're happy

Look at you, spinning around
Your feet don't even touch the ground

Wherever you are, I hope that you're laughing
Whoever you're with, I hope that you're having
The time of your life and everything's right
Whatever you wish, I hope that you get it
When love walks in, I hope that you let it
Baby be glad when you look back at me
I'll never be sad, I'll never be sad

Wherever you are, I hope that you're laughing
Whoever you're with, I hope that you're having
The time of your life and everything's right
Whatever you wish, I hope that you get it
When love walks in, I hope that you let it
Baby be glad when you look back at me
I'll never be sad as long as you're happy


9.Nobody's Sad On a Saturday Night

Working all week can make a grown man cry.
But nobody's sad on a Saturday night.
So throw some cheap sunglasses on your blood shot eye's
Cause nobody's sad on a Saturday night.

Some Johny Cougar, some southern comfort
Winner's and loser's we got each other
The world looks better in neon lights
Cause nobody's sad on a Saturday night.

Tell me your story and I'll tell you mine
Nobody's sad on a Saturday night.
I'll leave out the part where she said Good Bye
Cause nobody's sad on a Saturday night.
It goes whoah whoah here we go rock&roll rodeo


It goes whoah whoah here we go rock&roll rodeo
Some Johny Cougar some southern comfort
Winners or looser's we got each other
The world looks better in neon lights
Cause nobody's sad on a Saturday night.

Some Hank Jr. some southern comfort
I see you dancing babe I got your number
The world looks better in neon lights
Cause nobody's sad on a Saturday night


10.Nuthin' Changes

I got more cash than I can put in a bank
Got pink piranhas swimming in my tank
Two piece bikinis all around my pool
My 40-ouncer is never not cool
Frank Sinatra on the radio
Some chase the rainbow, I chase the gold

Nuthin' changes, it's always the same
Nuthin' changes, I can't complain
Nuthin' changes, we roll and we rock
Nuthin' changes, thank God

I got a yacht parked down in the keys
I write my name in the sand when I pee
My body's tanned except for my wrist
That's where my shiny diamond Rolex is
Don Williams on the radio
Brown bag my diamond, take my lobster to go

Nuthin' changes, it's always the same
Nuthin' changes, I can't complain
Nuthin' changes, we roll and we rock
Nuthin' changes, thank God

It's so easy, so warm and breezy
I'm so lucky to be me

I got a 24 car garage
I snap my fingers when I want a massage
Nuthin' but sevens when I roll the dice
Sometimes it's lonely, but the view is nice

Nuthin' changes, it's always the same
Nuthin' changes, I can't complain
Nuthin' changes, we roll and we rock
Nuthin' changes, thank God

Nuthin' changes, it's always the same
Nuthin' changes, you won't hear me complain
Nuthin' changes, we roll and we rock
Nuthin' changes, thank God


11.Who We Are

Bourbon and whiskey, tequila and scotch
Chocolate Martinis and Jägerbomb shots
Ice cold Cerveza replaces a day
Takes off the edge and takes us away

Play us a song about losing
Play us a song about love
Play us a song about freedom
Feeling wild and young

And play that piano
Let every song reach into our hearts
Play that piano
And let us forget who we are

They wanna shake it to Mustang Sally
They're screaming Margaritaville
Writing New Orleans Ladies, Somebody's Baby
On 100 dollar bills

All the boys wanna hear Bocephus
Centerfold and Purple Rain
It's all Drunken Drama, Somebody's Mama
Got Runned Over By A Damned Old Train

Sing us a song about dreaming
Sing us a song about life
Sing us a song about leaving
Cheatin' husbands and wives

We hide from tomorrow and yesterday's hells
We run from each other, we run from ourselves
Get lost in the music, get lost in the dark
What we all have in common is our favorite bar

So play that piano
Fill us with laughter and tear us apart
Play that piano
And let us forget who we are

Play that piano
And let us forget who we are
