Let You Go lyrics - Casey Donahew
Sometimes I'm lonely
and sometimes I'm lost
Sometimes I let you down
No matter how much it costs
Sometimes I'm reckless
and I never think twice
Sometimes I fall apart
You're always paying the price
Now I'm lonely and I don't care
'Cause I'm the one who let you down
But if you give me half a chance
I'll do everything I can to let you know
I never meant to let you go
Sometimes I wonder
why the world has to turn
Sometimes I break down
There's a lesson I should learn
Sometimes I'm without
When this life takes it's toll
How can I give you back
all the things that I've stole
Now I'm lonely and I don't care
'Cause I'm the one who let you down
But if you give me half a chance
I'll do everything I can to let you know
I never meant to let you go
I'm not sure if you can hear me
So I keep screamin' out your name
Now I'm lonely and I don't care
'Cause I'm the one who let you down
But if you give me half a chance
I'll do everything I can
Everything I can...
Because I'm lonely and I don't care
Now I'm the one who let you down
But if you give me half a chance
I'll do everything I can to let you know
I never meant to let you go
I never meant to let you go...
and sometimes I'm lost
Sometimes I let you down
No matter how much it costs
Sometimes I'm reckless
and I never think twice
Sometimes I fall apart
You're always paying the price
Now I'm lonely and I don't care
'Cause I'm the one who let you down
But if you give me half a chance
I'll do everything I can to let you know
I never meant to let you go
Sometimes I wonder
why the world has to turn
Sometimes I break down
There's a lesson I should learn
Sometimes I'm without
When this life takes it's toll
How can I give you back
all the things that I've stole
Now I'm lonely and I don't care
'Cause I'm the one who let you down
But if you give me half a chance
I'll do everything I can to let you know
I never meant to let you go
I'm not sure if you can hear me
So I keep screamin' out your name
Now I'm lonely and I don't care
'Cause I'm the one who let you down
But if you give me half a chance
I'll do everything I can
Everything I can...
Because I'm lonely and I don't care
Now I'm the one who let you down
But if you give me half a chance
I'll do everything I can to let you know
I never meant to let you go
I never meant to let you go...
Double-Wide Dream lyrics - Casey Donahew
Well, I'm spoken for
I got a ball and chain
I even gave her my last name
She's my anchor, she takes the wind out of my sails
Can't move our trailer 'cause she sewed the wheels
She's my plus one, you can do the math
Top to bottom there's no better half
And I love that pretty little country girl
She's rockin' this redneck's world
She's the welcome mat to my home sweet home
She takes me as I am & loves me like she wants to
Twists my heart up just like a corkscrew
And makes me smile, as I make her scream
Just a couple of kids livin' the double-wide dream
She likes to cuss & fight & she can drink all night
And she can roll one up till I'm feelin' right
She drives a truck with swampers and rims
And an Alpine pumping through Kicker tens
She dips snuff & she don't spit
Never on the broad her shirts don't fit
And I love that pretty little country girl
She's rockin' this redneck's world
She's the welcome mat to my home sweet home
She takes me as I am & loves me like she wants to
Twists my heart up just like a corkscrew
And makes me smile, as I make her scream
Just a couple of kids livin' the double-wide dream
Guns & dirt roads, cowboy boots & old blue jeans
And she ain't no uptown hussy
She's my down home trailer queen
Well, I love that pretty little country girl
She's what's rockin' this redneck's world
She's the welcome mat to my home sweet home
And I love that pretty little country girl
She's rockin' this redneck's world
She's the welcome mat to my home sweet home
She takes me as I am & loves me like she wants to
Twists my heart up just like a corkscrew
And makes me smile, as I make her scream
Just a couple of kids livin' the double-wide dream
The double-wide dream!
We got double-wide dreams!
I got a ball and chain
I even gave her my last name
She's my anchor, she takes the wind out of my sails
Can't move our trailer 'cause she sewed the wheels
She's my plus one, you can do the math
Top to bottom there's no better half
And I love that pretty little country girl
She's rockin' this redneck's world
She's the welcome mat to my home sweet home
She takes me as I am & loves me like she wants to
Twists my heart up just like a corkscrew
And makes me smile, as I make her scream
Just a couple of kids livin' the double-wide dream
She likes to cuss & fight & she can drink all night
And she can roll one up till I'm feelin' right
She drives a truck with swampers and rims
And an Alpine pumping through Kicker tens
She dips snuff & she don't spit
Never on the broad her shirts don't fit
And I love that pretty little country girl
She's rockin' this redneck's world
She's the welcome mat to my home sweet home
She takes me as I am & loves me like she wants to
Twists my heart up just like a corkscrew
And makes me smile, as I make her scream
Just a couple of kids livin' the double-wide dream
Guns & dirt roads, cowboy boots & old blue jeans
And she ain't no uptown hussy
She's my down home trailer queen
Well, I love that pretty little country girl
She's what's rockin' this redneck's world
She's the welcome mat to my home sweet home
And I love that pretty little country girl
She's rockin' this redneck's world
She's the welcome mat to my home sweet home
She takes me as I am & loves me like she wants to
Twists my heart up just like a corkscrew
And makes me smile, as I make her scream
Just a couple of kids livin' the double-wide dream
The double-wide dream!
We got double-wide dreams!
Give You A Ring lyrics - Casey Donahew band
A moonlit night
There's no need for headlights
This beat up truck'll damn near drive itself
You tried hard not to show it
and we both know where it's goin'
If I can't find the words for how I feel
I'll give you a ring
So your eyes can't tell me no
So your reaction won't bring out my insecurity
I'm gonna give you a ring
and tell you how I feel
It might make more sense on a telephone line
than right here in front of you
I'll give you a ring
It's been 5 years since you left
and we both got our regrets
but it made me smile to hear you're back in town
Let's look past our mistakes
There's a chance we've got to take
Now let those walls
around our hearts come crumblin' to the ground
I'll give you a ring
So your eyes can't tell me no
So your reaction won't bring out my insecurity
I'm gonna give you a ring
and tell you how I feel
It might make more sense on a telephone line
than right here in front of you
I'll give you a ring
You're still with me
All those memories
are from our first kiss to me down here on my knees
So I can give you this ring
I pray your eyes don't tell me no
Hope your reaction won't bring out my insecurity
I'm gonna give you a ring
To show you how I feel
Always and forever's what I mean
I'll give you a ring
There's no need for headlights
This beat up truck'll damn near drive itself
You tried hard not to show it
and we both know where it's goin'
If I can't find the words for how I feel
I'll give you a ring
So your eyes can't tell me no
So your reaction won't bring out my insecurity
I'm gonna give you a ring
and tell you how I feel
It might make more sense on a telephone line
than right here in front of you
I'll give you a ring
It's been 5 years since you left
and we both got our regrets
but it made me smile to hear you're back in town
Let's look past our mistakes
There's a chance we've got to take
Now let those walls
around our hearts come crumblin' to the ground
I'll give you a ring
So your eyes can't tell me no
So your reaction won't bring out my insecurity
I'm gonna give you a ring
and tell you how I feel
It might make more sense on a telephone line
than right here in front of you
I'll give you a ring
You're still with me
All those memories
are from our first kiss to me down here on my knees
So I can give you this ring
I pray your eyes don't tell me no
Hope your reaction won't bring out my insecurity
I'm gonna give you a ring
To show you how I feel
Always and forever's what I mean
I'll give you a ring
Running Through My Head lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Alone again tonight
This bottle by my bed and I think
damn my heart and damn my head
I'm dreamin' of a girl that never dreams of me
and it's not fair, she won't let me be
And if I find redemption at the end of the line
I'll remember better days and a time when she was mine
And I'd scream
Hold on, hold on just one more day
Let go, let go and walk away
You're gonna die lonely is what she said
But I don't feel lonely
with you runnin' through my head
She's never comin' back
There's no reason that she would
She probably wouldn't try, even if she could
I haven't slept in days and I haven't seen the sun
and I think damn my luck, that I just can't outrun
But if I find redemption at the end of the line
Twisted in the wind just like I'm runnin' out of time
And I'd scream
Hold on, hold on just one more day
Let go, let go and walk away
You're gonna die lonely is what she said
But I don't feel lonely
with you runnin' through my head
And if I find redemption at the end of the line
I'll remember better days and a time when she was mine
And I'd scream
Hold on, hold on just one more day
Let go, let go and walk away
You're gonna die lonely is what she said
But I don't feel lonely
No, I don't feel lonely
But I don't feel lonely
with you runnin' through my head
Alone again tonight
This bottle by my bed
and I think, damn my heart...
This bottle by my bed and I think
damn my heart and damn my head
I'm dreamin' of a girl that never dreams of me
and it's not fair, she won't let me be
And if I find redemption at the end of the line
I'll remember better days and a time when she was mine
And I'd scream
Hold on, hold on just one more day
Let go, let go and walk away
You're gonna die lonely is what she said
But I don't feel lonely
with you runnin' through my head
She's never comin' back
There's no reason that she would
She probably wouldn't try, even if she could
I haven't slept in days and I haven't seen the sun
and I think damn my luck, that I just can't outrun
But if I find redemption at the end of the line
Twisted in the wind just like I'm runnin' out of time
And I'd scream
Hold on, hold on just one more day
Let go, let go and walk away
You're gonna die lonely is what she said
But I don't feel lonely
with you runnin' through my head
And if I find redemption at the end of the line
I'll remember better days and a time when she was mine
And I'd scream
Hold on, hold on just one more day
Let go, let go and walk away
You're gonna die lonely is what she said
But I don't feel lonely
No, I don't feel lonely
But I don't feel lonely
with you runnin' through my head
Alone again tonight
This bottle by my bed
and I think, damn my heart...
Regrets lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
I keep staring down this highway
And you'd still be here if I had it my way
But pages of our fairy tale are torn
But I've got my pride to keep me warm
And now this room feels like a tomb
on the dark side of the moon
And I know you're in his arms again
I should have begged you to stay
And never let you walk away
I should've told you that my hearts always been yours
So let these empty memories burn
Because you have not returned
And you know regrets
they are the hardest lessons learned
I often wonder if I ever cross your mind
Now I know you're gone
But my heart still thinks that there's time
And there's no life left in this place we called a home
The hardest part of waking up is knowing I'm alone
And now this room feels like a tomb
on the dark side of the moon
And I know you're in his arms again
I should have begged you to stay
And never let you walk away
I should've told you that my hearts always been yours
So let these empty memories burn
Because you have not returned
And you know regrets
they are the hardest lessons learned
But I'll be waiting if you need me
Because my heart can't say goodbye, yeah!
Now this room feels like a tomb
on the dark side of the moon
And I know you're in his arms again
I wish I would've begged you to stay
But I just let you walk away
You know you'll always have my heart
You know you'll always have my heart!
So let these empty memories burn
Because you have not returned
And you know regrets
they are the hardest lessons learned
You know regrets
they are the hardest lessons learned
And you'd still be here if I had it my way
But pages of our fairy tale are torn
But I've got my pride to keep me warm
And now this room feels like a tomb
on the dark side of the moon
And I know you're in his arms again
I should have begged you to stay
And never let you walk away
I should've told you that my hearts always been yours
So let these empty memories burn
Because you have not returned
And you know regrets
they are the hardest lessons learned
I often wonder if I ever cross your mind
Now I know you're gone
But my heart still thinks that there's time
And there's no life left in this place we called a home
The hardest part of waking up is knowing I'm alone
And now this room feels like a tomb
on the dark side of the moon
And I know you're in his arms again
I should have begged you to stay
And never let you walk away
I should've told you that my hearts always been yours
So let these empty memories burn
Because you have not returned
And you know regrets
they are the hardest lessons learned
But I'll be waiting if you need me
Because my heart can't say goodbye, yeah!
Now this room feels like a tomb
on the dark side of the moon
And I know you're in his arms again
I wish I would've begged you to stay
But I just let you walk away
You know you'll always have my heart
You know you'll always have my heart!
So let these empty memories burn
Because you have not returned
And you know regrets
they are the hardest lessons learned
You know regrets
they are the hardest lessons learned
One Star Flag lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Got ice in my veins and blood on my lips
and this look on my face like I don't give a shit
Everybody's acting like I'm the only one messed up
I'm staring down the barrel of a whiskey bottle
Got the hammer down and I can't find the throttle
I'm revved up red line lookin' for a place to go
And I'm headed south like a freight train bound for Texas
There's a girl in Fort Worth who swears I'm on her mind
And she tells me the bed gets cold when she's all alone
And that one star flag is waving like it's calling me home
I got nerves of steel with my head on the gate
and when I nod my head I'll be lookin' for it
When my heart beats pumpin' so hard I can't catch my breath
I hope that it blows and turns into my hand
and I'll make a move for the girls in the stand
and I'll be smiling with a choker while I'm holding up the buckle
We'll be takin' it to the bar 'cause the drinks are on me
And I'm headed south like a freight train bound for Texas
There's a girl in Fort Worth who swears I'm on her mind
And she tells me the bed gets cold when she's all alone
And that one star flag is waving like it's calling me home
Well, if you think I'm easy, you're mistakin'
This left hand will leave you shakin'
I might bend, but I won't break
You can have what you can take
Come and get it, you'll regret it
Better just walk away
And I'm headed south like a freight train bound for Texas
There's a girl in Fort Worth who swears I'm on her mind
And she tells me the bed gets cold when she's all alone
And that one star flag is waving like it's calling me home
Yeah, that one star flag is waving like it's calling me home
and this look on my face like I don't give a shit
Everybody's acting like I'm the only one messed up
I'm staring down the barrel of a whiskey bottle
Got the hammer down and I can't find the throttle
I'm revved up red line lookin' for a place to go
And I'm headed south like a freight train bound for Texas
There's a girl in Fort Worth who swears I'm on her mind
And she tells me the bed gets cold when she's all alone
And that one star flag is waving like it's calling me home
I got nerves of steel with my head on the gate
and when I nod my head I'll be lookin' for it
When my heart beats pumpin' so hard I can't catch my breath
I hope that it blows and turns into my hand
and I'll make a move for the girls in the stand
and I'll be smiling with a choker while I'm holding up the buckle
We'll be takin' it to the bar 'cause the drinks are on me
And I'm headed south like a freight train bound for Texas
There's a girl in Fort Worth who swears I'm on her mind
And she tells me the bed gets cold when she's all alone
And that one star flag is waving like it's calling me home
Well, if you think I'm easy, you're mistakin'
This left hand will leave you shakin'
I might bend, but I won't break
You can have what you can take
Come and get it, you'll regret it
Better just walk away
And I'm headed south like a freight train bound for Texas
There's a girl in Fort Worth who swears I'm on her mind
And she tells me the bed gets cold when she's all alone
And that one star flag is waving like it's calling me home
Yeah, that one star flag is waving like it's calling me home
I'd Give Anything lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Well, I woke up today
To an empty bed
A spot beside me where you used to lay
Was empty as my head
And I found you in the closet
With a suitcase full of clothes
You said you'd had enough of our late nights
Gonna leave and head back home
Well, what could I say to you?
When you've already made up your mind
Half these years that we spent together
Ain't nothin' but wasted time
My love won't bring her back
My pride won't beg her to stay
Now she's packin' up her things
Leavin' Dallas today
In a cloud of smoke
Cannot tell her what she means to me
But if I could have her back
Well, I'd give anything
So, I pour myself some coffee
I stare at the wall
I wonder to myself
Well, did she love me at all?
And I'm as clueless as can be
And I don't know where to turn
Lost in all directions
I guess there's nowhere I can run
My love won't bring her back
My pride won't beg her to stay
Now she's packin' up her things
Leavin' Dallas today
In a cloud of smoke
Cannot tell her what she means to me
But if I could have her back
Then I'd give anything
So, I wait by the telephone
I hope that it will ring
I'm hopin' you've had a second thought
Or a dream of you and me
My love won't bring her back
My pride won't beg her to stay
Now she's packin' up her things
Leavin' Dallas today
In a cloud of smoke
Cannot tell her what she means to me
But if I could have her back
Oh, if i could have her back
I'd give anything
To an empty bed
A spot beside me where you used to lay
Was empty as my head
And I found you in the closet
With a suitcase full of clothes
You said you'd had enough of our late nights
Gonna leave and head back home
Well, what could I say to you?
When you've already made up your mind
Half these years that we spent together
Ain't nothin' but wasted time
My love won't bring her back
My pride won't beg her to stay
Now she's packin' up her things
Leavin' Dallas today
In a cloud of smoke
Cannot tell her what she means to me
But if I could have her back
Well, I'd give anything
So, I pour myself some coffee
I stare at the wall
I wonder to myself
Well, did she love me at all?
And I'm as clueless as can be
And I don't know where to turn
Lost in all directions
I guess there's nowhere I can run
My love won't bring her back
My pride won't beg her to stay
Now she's packin' up her things
Leavin' Dallas today
In a cloud of smoke
Cannot tell her what she means to me
But if I could have her back
Then I'd give anything
So, I wait by the telephone
I hope that it will ring
I'm hopin' you've had a second thought
Or a dream of you and me
My love won't bring her back
My pride won't beg her to stay
Now she's packin' up her things
Leavin' Dallas today
In a cloud of smoke
Cannot tell her what she means to me
But if I could have her back
Oh, if i could have her back
I'd give anything
Let's Not Say Goodbye Again lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
A broken bottle night
A knockdown, dragout fight
She was screamin', cryin' about the lyin'
She said, "you're not even tryin'."
So I took off to be alone
She said, "you don't have to come back home."
It's funny how the truth sounds different
You're hangin' on to every word
Do you remember when I said I love you?
How long has it been?
Well, I don't want this to end
Let's not say goodbye again
Who I used to be
Don't look the same to me
I was loud and lazy, damn near crazy
You got bored and you tried to change me
And I stepped up and we had it out
I'm not sure what the hell we're fightin' about
It's funny how the truth sounds different
You're hangin' on to every word
Do you remember when I said I love you?
How long has it been?
Well, I don't want this to end
Let's not say goodbye again
Time to time I pay the cost
Maybe it's time you realize what you lost
It's funny how the truth sounds different
You're hangin' on to every word
Do you remember when I said I love you?
How long has it been?
How long has it been?
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
How long has it been?
Well, I don't want this to end
Now, let's not say goodbye again
Could Be My Time lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
I got no reasons to be lonely
Only this drink in my hand
I got no senses
I got no money
Honey, would you like to dance?
Then your eyes, they sparkle as shards of light
that fall from a crystal ball across the floor
and I'll hold you close like mine
Your lips smell like wine or dine
I'm thinkin', this could be my time
This could be my time...
There's no words to be spoken
Broken is my heart
and I've been hidin', confidin' in myself
Then your eyes, they sparkle like shards of light
that fall from a crystal ball across the floor
and I'll hold you close like mine
Your lips smell like wine or dine
I'm thinkin', this could be my time
This could be my time...
So, I'll keep on dreamin'
Reality is just believin' there's a chance
Then your eyes'll sparkle like shards of light
that fall from a crystal ball across the floor
and I'll hold you close like mine
Your lips smell like wine or dine
I'm thinkin', this could be my time
This could be my time...
This could be my time, yeah!
This could be my time...
Only this drink in my hand
I got no senses
I got no money
Honey, would you like to dance?
Then your eyes, they sparkle as shards of light
that fall from a crystal ball across the floor
and I'll hold you close like mine
Your lips smell like wine or dine
I'm thinkin', this could be my time
This could be my time...
There's no words to be spoken
Broken is my heart
and I've been hidin', confidin' in myself
Then your eyes, they sparkle like shards of light
that fall from a crystal ball across the floor
and I'll hold you close like mine
Your lips smell like wine or dine
I'm thinkin', this could be my time
This could be my time...
So, I'll keep on dreamin'
Reality is just believin' there's a chance
Then your eyes'll sparkle like shards of light
that fall from a crystal ball across the floor
and I'll hold you close like mine
Your lips smell like wine or dine
I'm thinkin', this could be my time
This could be my time...
This could be my time, yeah!
This could be my time...
White Trash Story - II (The Deuce) lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
I gotta get this trailer rollin' down hill
'Cause I'm sick of sitting here still
The good times and the bad have left me broke
Grandma, she smoked all my swagger
Dale Earnhardt 3 and the rebel flag
This trailer park is going straight to hell
But I'm still first class white trash if you can't tell
Now Junior, he's a little slow
He got 18 months for the plants he grows
and Mary Lou's back on the stripper pole to pay the bills
They got barefoot kids in cut off jhorts
They spend every week down at juvie court
For startin' fights and selling grandmas pills
Sarah Anne she can't be found
I guess she got tired of being passed around
And planned a waffle house wedding
On the morning of a one night stand
I gotta get this trailer rolling down hill
'Cause I'm sick of sitting here still
The good times and the bad have left me broke
Grandma, she smoked all my swagger
Dale Earnhardt 3 and the rebel flag
This trailer park is going straight to hell
But I'm still first class white trash if you can't tell
I guess dynamite fishing was a big mistake
'Cause my john boat stuck at the bottom of the lake
I got weekend stays and 6 months community service
And there's a pitbull chained to every tree
With a cardboard sign that says, pups are free
We got pink flamingos and blow up plastic pools
We like spotlight huntin' and natural light
And the cops get called here every night
And there's a 12 gauge smoking from a woman who can take a punch
I gotta get this trailer rolling down hill
'cause I'm sick of sitting here still
The good times and the bad have left me broke
Grandma, she smoked all my swagger
Dale Earnhardt 3 and the rebel flag
This trailer park is going straight to hell
But I'm still first class white trash if you cant tell
My little sister's getting married today
And my dad's still in jail, so I'll give her away
I'm gonna get hammered drunk
And light some shit on fire
I gotta get this trailer rolling down hill
'Cause I'm sick of sitting here still
The good times and the bad are all that's left
It's either house arrest or on parole
There's no turning back, I'm out of control
And this trailer park is going straight to hell
But I'm still first class white trash if you can't tell
I'm still first class white trash (if you can't tell)
'Cause I'm sick of sitting here still
The good times and the bad have left me broke
Grandma, she smoked all my swagger
Dale Earnhardt 3 and the rebel flag
This trailer park is going straight to hell
But I'm still first class white trash if you can't tell
Now Junior, he's a little slow
He got 18 months for the plants he grows
and Mary Lou's back on the stripper pole to pay the bills
They got barefoot kids in cut off jhorts
They spend every week down at juvie court
For startin' fights and selling grandmas pills
Sarah Anne she can't be found
I guess she got tired of being passed around
And planned a waffle house wedding
On the morning of a one night stand
I gotta get this trailer rolling down hill
'Cause I'm sick of sitting here still
The good times and the bad have left me broke
Grandma, she smoked all my swagger
Dale Earnhardt 3 and the rebel flag
This trailer park is going straight to hell
But I'm still first class white trash if you can't tell
I guess dynamite fishing was a big mistake
'Cause my john boat stuck at the bottom of the lake

We like spotlight huntin' and natural light
And the cops get called here every night
And there's a 12 gauge smoking from a woman who can take a punch
I gotta get this trailer rolling down hill
'cause I'm sick of sitting here still
The good times and the bad have left me broke
Grandma, she smoked all my swagger
Dale Earnhardt 3 and the rebel flag
This trailer park is going straight to hell
But I'm still first class white trash if you cant tell
My little sister's getting married today
And my dad's still in jail, so I'll give her away
I'm gonna get hammered drunk
And light some shit on fire
I gotta get this trailer rolling down hill
'Cause I'm sick of sitting here still
The good times and the bad are all that's left
It's either house arrest or on parole
There's no turning back, I'm out of control
And this trailer park is going straight to hell
But I'm still first class white trash if you can't tell
I'm still first class white trash (if you can't tell)
Ramblin' Kind lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Well I've been to New York and I've been out to L.A.
I floated down the Brazos City Hurricane
Lost myself somewhere along the way
And I found myself sittin' in this cheap cafe
I was talkin' with the waitress, with the crooked smile and painted on face
She said "A-hey mister can you get me, out of this place?"
Now I'm on a Greyhound bus, rollin' hard and fast
Lookin' at the world through the bottom of my glass
Said it's a good thing I got this photographic mind
'Cause I'm just your Ramblin' kind
Sometimes I hear, a little voice inside my head
He says "Call in sick to work, sit on your couch instead
Grow yourself a beard, start actin' a little weird
Well there was a judge in Johnson County, said that I did not appear
Before his court, said I was stuck in Ft. Worth
Just sippin' on a long one, sittin on my back porch
I'm on a Greyhound bus, rollin' hard and fast
Lookin' at the world through the bottom of my glass
Said it's a good thing I got this photographic mind
'Cause I'm just your Ramblin' kind
Most of these days, I just get high and watch the tube
Hang out at my friends' place swim in their pool
I drink all o' their beer, I smoke all of their weed
I don't ever steal I just, take what I need
I'm on a Greyhound bus, rollin' hard and fast
Lookin' at the world through the bottom of my glass
Said it's a good thing I got this photographic mind
'Cause I'm just your Ramblin' kind
I said I'm just your Ramblin' kind
Next Time lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Never felt so sick in so long
You hung up the phone and
It was short but cut me deep
And I stayed awake all night I couldn't sleep
My head is burning from the lies I keep on learning
But you know that I'll be fine
Until the next time
[Chorus:]
That the phone will ring
Next time you hear me sing and
Next time our eyes will meet
You sweep me off my feet
Next time well I wont be alone
You said you'd come back home
Until the next time
Well I'm the one who heard your lies
I saw it in your eyes and
I hope it makes you feel nice
I'm the one you sacrificed and
Lookin back I hope you think of me
Gonna break my heart and set you free
Oh but you know that I'll be fine
Until the next time
[Chorus]
Gonna take a stand and draw the line
Find a bottle and drink you off my mind
Find somebody new who
Don't look a thing like you and
Spend all night and half a day
Lovin my blues away
Oh but you know that I'll be fine
Cause there won't be a next time
Oh no, no baby
Until the next time
[Last chorus:]
That the phone will ring
And I'll have a new song I will sing
It'll be about me gettin mine
And how you were a waste of time
Next time I wont be alone
So don't bother to come back home
Cause there wont be a next time
Oh no, no baby
There wont be a next time
You hung up the phone and
It was short but cut me deep
And I stayed awake all night I couldn't sleep
My head is burning from the lies I keep on learning
But you know that I'll be fine
Until the next time
[Chorus:]
That the phone will ring
Next time you hear me sing and
Next time our eyes will meet
You sweep me off my feet
Next time well I wont be alone
You said you'd come back home
Until the next time
Well I'm the one who heard your lies
I saw it in your eyes and
I hope it makes you feel nice
I'm the one you sacrificed and
Lookin back I hope you think of me
Gonna break my heart and set you free
Oh but you know that I'll be fine
Until the next time
[Chorus]
Gonna take a stand and draw the line
Find a bottle and drink you off my mind
Find somebody new who
Don't look a thing like you and
Spend all night and half a day
Lovin my blues away
Oh but you know that I'll be fine
Cause there won't be a next time
Oh no, no baby
Until the next time
[Last chorus:]
That the phone will ring
And I'll have a new song I will sing
It'll be about me gettin mine
And how you were a waste of time
Next time I wont be alone
So don't bother to come back home
Cause there wont be a next time
Oh no, no baby
There wont be a next time
Breaks My Heart lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
I said what the hell
I'm goin out tonight
Maybe head downtown with some friends
And turn out the lights
Never dreamed I'd see you here
Out with someone new
Its too late to break and run
And I cant believe were through
[Chorus:]
Cause it breaks my heart
To see you here with him out on that floor
Its just not fair what you're doin
Tryin to settle up the score
And tonights gonna hurt when I'm dreaming
About you and that smile that you wore
Its not about winning,
But I cant take losing anymore
Its funny how time
Has a way of bringing pain around
And did you tell him
That I'm the one that burned you down?
Its ok to ignore me
Pretend like you don't know
I probably deserve this all
But I pray to God that it don't show
[Chorus]
Well I'm not sure how
I'm supposed to watch you walk away
You wont think of me
But I'll never forget today
[Chorus]
Its not about winning
But I can't take losing anymore
No it's not about winning...
California lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
The sun is rising up in New York
Its 3am on west coast time
When you took everything
And you left me far behind
[Chorus:]
There's no California
That's all I heard her say
Starin at this ocean
Feels so far away
I can see the sunset
All the skies are grey
She said she loves me
But not enough to stay
Since you've been gone this house feels empty
If you were lonely why'd you leave
Did I not give you everything you need?
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Nowhere Fast lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Well you left last night, to the beat on the floor,
Walked yourself right out the door,
Said if I see you again it will be too soon,
But I've got something to say to you,
Well I'm Ok with the fact that we're through,now
Ain't it funny how love makes the world go blind,
[Chorus]
And I don't know how far you'll make it,
Before you realize your heart is breaking,
by that time well I'll be gone,
Standin' in the driveway waivin',
There's a breath of freedom I've been cravin',
Maybe this time was the last,
you're goin' nowhere fast
Now I wont miss the late night crying,
Your accusations my denying,
If you don't trust me just say you don't,
Cuz' you say you hate me, you say I'm leavin',
I'm so tired of this not believin',
That I love you is only words,
And I don't know how far you'll make it,
Before you realize your heart is breaking, by that time well I'll be gone,
Standin' in the driveway waivin',
There's a breath of freedom I've been cravin',
Maybe this time was the last,
Oh you're goin' nowhere fast
And I take half the blame for this,
But its not you I'm gonna miss,
[Chorus]
Walked yourself right out the door,
Said if I see you again it will be too soon,
But I've got something to say to you,
Well I'm Ok with the fact that we're through,now
Ain't it funny how love makes the world go blind,
[Chorus]
And I don't know how far you'll make it,
Before you realize your heart is breaking,
by that time well I'll be gone,
Standin' in the driveway waivin',
There's a breath of freedom I've been cravin',
Maybe this time was the last,
you're goin' nowhere fast
Now I wont miss the late night crying,
Your accusations my denying,
If you don't trust me just say you don't,
Cuz' you say you hate me, you say I'm leavin',
I'm so tired of this not believin',
That I love you is only words,
And I don't know how far you'll make it,
Before you realize your heart is breaking, by that time well I'll be gone,
Standin' in the driveway waivin',
There's a breath of freedom I've been cravin',
Maybe this time was the last,
Oh you're goin' nowhere fast
And I take half the blame for this,
But its not you I'm gonna miss,
[Chorus]
Let Me Love You lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Well I've been out here on this highway for a while,
I think about you girl with every passing mile,
I tell you I love you and then I turn and I walk away,
I see your lips, your face, your smile and I beg to stay,
[Chorus]
Now just let me love you, let me hold you,
Let me touch you, like you need to be touched,
Let your arms be my fire, let them burn all night long,
Let me love you like you need to be loved
Whiskey and highway, well they call my name,
All these small town dirt roads start to look the same,
I'm headed back, I hat that you're alone,
Just a few more miles until I make my way back home,
[Chorus]
Now just let me love you, let me hold you,
Let me touch you, like you need to be touched,
Let your arms be my fire, let them burn all night long,
Let me love you like you need to be loved
When those dark night finally move in,
Let this river lead me back to my only..
[Chorus]
I think about you girl with every passing mile,
I tell you I love you and then I turn and I walk away,
I see your lips, your face, your smile and I beg to stay,
[Chorus]
Now just let me love you, let me hold you,
Let me touch you, like you need to be touched,
Let your arms be my fire, let them burn all night long,
Let me love you like you need to be loved
Whiskey and highway, well they call my name,
All these small town dirt roads start to look the same,
I'm headed back, I hat that you're alone,
Just a few more miles until I make my way back home,
[Chorus]
Now just let me love you, let me hold you,
Let me touch you, like you need to be touched,
Let your arms be my fire, let them burn all night long,
Let me love you like you need to be loved
When those dark night finally move in,
Let this river lead me back to my only..
[Chorus]
Burn This House Down lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
I got this lighter in my hand,
A little gasoline so please just let me in,
Now your door seems soaking wet,
Well I've lost everything so I never will regret,
[Chorus]
When I burn this old house down,
Wrapped in an embrace your bodies will be found,
And I'll be running free, no one will blame me,
Cuz' I wont make a sound when I burn this old house down
I got this pistol in my hand,
And all the lights were off so I just let myself in,
And now I'm waiting for your last walk through that door,
It's hard to say goodbye but I wont be jealous anymore,
[Chorus]
When I burn this old house down,
Wrapped in an embrace your bodies will be found,
And I'll be running free, no one will blame me,
Cuz' I wont make a sound when I burn this old house down
I know I'll miss you and the lies that stormed your heart,
go and strike a match and watch your whole world fall apart,
[Repeat Chorus]
A little gasoline so please just let me in,
Now your door seems soaking wet,
Well I've lost everything so I never will regret,
[Chorus]
When I burn this old house down,
Wrapped in an embrace your bodies will be found,
And I'll be running free, no one will blame me,
Cuz' I wont make a sound when I burn this old house down
I got this pistol in my hand,
And all the lights were off so I just let myself in,
And now I'm waiting for your last walk through that door,
It's hard to say goodbye but I wont be jealous anymore,
[Chorus]
When I burn this old house down,
Wrapped in an embrace your bodies will be found,
And I'll be running free, no one will blame me,
Cuz' I wont make a sound when I burn this old house down
I know I'll miss you and the lies that stormed your heart,
go and strike a match and watch your whole world fall apart,
[Repeat Chorus]
Break Me Down lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
It's only been a week since I've been gone,
7 days just don't seem too long,
We've been fighting since I left,
You can't let the past be,
You me tell that it's over and say stay away from me,
[Chorus]
Girl you're breaking me down,
Down, down, down
And I cant seem to stand my ground
You're breaking me down,
Down, down, down
And I cant seem to stand my ground
I borrow a little money,
Catch a first flight into town,
You're driving me crazy,
Just might burn this whole street down,
Seems so familiar yet I'm somehow out of place,
I cant take no more, I've got to see your face
[Chorus]
Girl you're breaking me down,
Down, down, down
And I cant seem to stand my ground
You're breaking me down,
Down, down, down
And I cant seem to stand my ground
When you break me down...
You break me down and it feels like this wind is here for good,
We wasted hours talking about those things we never could,
You reach for my hand but with a chill it starts to shake,
My body says I want you but my soul just cannot take,
[Chorus]
You break me down..
7 days just don't seem too long,
We've been fighting since I left,
You can't let the past be,
You me tell that it's over and say stay away from me,
[Chorus]
Girl you're breaking me down,
Down, down, down
And I cant seem to stand my ground
You're breaking me down,
Down, down, down
And I cant seem to stand my ground
I borrow a little money,
Catch a first flight into town,
You're driving me crazy,
Just might burn this whole street down,
Seems so familiar yet I'm somehow out of place,
I cant take no more, I've got to see your face
[Chorus]
Girl you're breaking me down,
Down, down, down
And I cant seem to stand my ground
You're breaking me down,
Down, down, down
And I cant seem to stand my ground
When you break me down...
You break me down and it feels like this wind is here for good,
We wasted hours talking about those things we never could,
You reach for my hand but with a chill it starts to shake,
My body says I want you but my soul just cannot take,
[Chorus]
You break me down..
Strong Enough lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
She told me to not to call her,
So I told her that I wouldn't,
Tried my best to forget her but I couldn't
I'm not strong enough to watch her walk away
Standing in the middle of the street broken hearted,
Trying to wrap my mind around the reasons that we parted,
I'm not strong enough to watch her walk away,
Now I'm not strong enough to make her stay
[Chorus]
Well I should of saw the signs that were pointing that direction,
Looking in her eyes I could see there's no affection,
Everyone kept saying that it's never gonna last,
I'm the only one still living in the past
Walking in a circle while feeling so confused,
I'm the one to blame she's the one who got used,
I'm not strong enough to watch her walk away,
Twisted off and turned down past the point of no returning,
Standing at the bottom still looking for her light still burning,
I'm not strong enough to watch her walk away,
Now I'm not strong enough to make her stay
[Chorus]
Well I should of saw the signs that were pointing that direction,
Looking in her eyes I could see there's no affection,
Everyone kept saying that it's never gonna last,
I'm the only one still living in the past
[Repeat chorus]
So I told her that I wouldn't,
Tried my best to forget her but I couldn't
I'm not strong enough to watch her walk away
Standing in the middle of the street broken hearted,
Trying to wrap my mind around the reasons that we parted,
I'm not strong enough to watch her walk away,
Now I'm not strong enough to make her stay
[Chorus]
Well I should of saw the signs that were pointing that direction,
Looking in her eyes I could see there's no affection,
Everyone kept saying that it's never gonna last,
I'm the only one still living in the past
Walking in a circle while feeling so confused,
I'm the one to blame she's the one who got used,
I'm not strong enough to watch her walk away,
Twisted off and turned down past the point of no returning,
Standing at the bottom still looking for her light still burning,
I'm not strong enough to watch her walk away,
Now I'm not strong enough to make her stay
[Chorus]
Well I should of saw the signs that were pointing that direction,
Looking in her eyes I could see there's no affection,
Everyone kept saying that it's never gonna last,
I'm the only one still living in the past
[Repeat chorus]
Broken lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Maybe she'll save me, maybe she'll understand,
Maybe she'll walk down that road and lead me back again,
Or maybe she'll hold me, maybe she'll ease my pain
Or maybe she'll wrap me in her arms until we feel the same,
[Chorus]
Cuz I've got a feeling that my heart is breaking,
And I'm not sure if my soul is even worth taking,
And when I find myself out of there and I'm choking,
I will be looking for you to fix the pieces that are broken
Maybe she'll leave me, maybe I'm too far gone
And from the way I'm acting lately, she may not be wrong
Or maybe she'll cuss my name, maybe I damned her life,
Or maybe her ears can't hear not one more of my lies,
[Chorus]
Cuz I've got a feeling that my heart is breaking,
And I'm not sure if my soul is even worth taking,
And when I find myself out of there and I'm choking,
I will be looking for you to fix the pieces that are broken
And when I find myself out of there and I'm choking,
I will be looking for you to fix the pieces that are broken
Maybe she'll walk down that road and lead me back again,
Or maybe she'll hold me, maybe she'll ease my pain
Or maybe she'll wrap me in her arms until we feel the same,
[Chorus]
Cuz I've got a feeling that my heart is breaking,
And I'm not sure if my soul is even worth taking,
And when I find myself out of there and I'm choking,
I will be looking for you to fix the pieces that are broken
Maybe she'll leave me, maybe I'm too far gone
And from the way I'm acting lately, she may not be wrong
Or maybe she'll cuss my name, maybe I damned her life,
Or maybe her ears can't hear not one more of my lies,
[Chorus]
Cuz I've got a feeling that my heart is breaking,
And I'm not sure if my soul is even worth taking,
And when I find myself out of there and I'm choking,
I will be looking for you to fix the pieces that are broken
And when I find myself out of there and I'm choking,
I will be looking for you to fix the pieces that are broken
Angel lyrics - Casey Donahew
Her wings are broken, and she never prays,
And that old halo on her head has seen better days,
She knows he's watching, she feels him there,
and it breaks her heart to think the weight was too much bare,
[Chorus]
She's an angel that's lost her way,
She's an angel from another day,
She may be the devil, sent to lead me a stray
But I think she's an angel that's lost her way
She's got lines running up her arms like an L.A. Freeway,
I've dropped her off at rehab 7 times but she just won't stay,
She never climbed a mountain but she's seen her share of stone,
She got locked up in Johnson County for selling pills and blow
[Chorus]
She's an angel that's lost her way,
She's an angel from another day,
She may be the devil, sent to lead me a stray
But I think she's an angel that's lost her way
She's got 3 kids that don't know her name,
She's sold her body a couple of times to ease the pain,
She wakes up screaming, her face full of tears,
She's only 29 but she's aged beyond her years
[Chorus]
And that old halo on her head has seen better days,
She knows he's watching, she feels him there,
and it breaks her heart to think the weight was too much bare,
[Chorus]
She's an angel that's lost her way,
She's an angel from another day,
She may be the devil, sent to lead me a stray
But I think she's an angel that's lost her way
She's got lines running up her arms like an L.A. Freeway,
I've dropped her off at rehab 7 times but she just won't stay,
She never climbed a mountain but she's seen her share of stone,
She got locked up in Johnson County for selling pills and blow
[Chorus]
She's an angel that's lost her way,
She's an angel from another day,
She may be the devil, sent to lead me a stray
But I think she's an angel that's lost her way
She's got 3 kids that don't know her name,
She's sold her body a couple of times to ease the pain,
She wakes up screaming, her face full of tears,
She's only 29 but she's aged beyond her years
[Chorus]
Moving On lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Two packs a day and a smoker's cough
She told me quit and I flipped her off
Everybody thinks they know whats best for me
They're all too blind to see that I walk alone
A squealin tires and a door slam
She's drunk again, I don't give a damn
Everybody's got their own cross to bear
Stop acting like I should care, cause I don't condone
[Chorus:]
Now it's judgement day, I got the devil to pay
And I'm riding shotgun down a burning highway tonight
I'm searching for a state of execution
Maybe just an ounce of absolution to make things right
And if I'm high, I'm elevated
I'm not worn, I'm a little faded but I'm not gone
And if I had it my way, I'd find me another day to say
I'm moving on
I kicked the hinge right off the door
Shattered glass across the floor
An old syringe and a bag of pills
That's where she finds her thrills
But I think she's lost
And I don't have any regrets
But I'm not finished yet
Bloodshot eyes and whiskey breath
Some things are worse than death
But I hate the cost
[Chorus]
Watch me--I'm moving on...
[Chorus]
She told me quit and I flipped her off
Everybody thinks they know whats best for me
They're all too blind to see that I walk alone
A squealin tires and a door slam
She's drunk again, I don't give a damn
Everybody's got their own cross to bear
Stop acting like I should care, cause I don't condone
[Chorus:]
Now it's judgement day, I got the devil to pay
And I'm riding shotgun down a burning highway tonight
I'm searching for a state of execution
Maybe just an ounce of absolution to make things right
And if I'm high, I'm elevated
I'm not worn, I'm a little faded but I'm not gone
And if I had it my way, I'd find me another day to say
I'm moving on
I kicked the hinge right off the door
Shattered glass across the floor
An old syringe and a bag of pills
That's where she finds her thrills
But I think she's lost
And I don't have any regrets
But I'm not finished yet
Bloodshot eyes and whiskey breath
Some things are worse than death
But I hate the cost
[Chorus]
Watch me--I'm moving on...
[Chorus]
Let You Down lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
She turned 21 in April,
You know her birthday's the same as mine
When we first met she'd never left Texas
She was young and so confused
She got caught up in the bright lights
The whiskey, pills and all those late nights
From the mountain where we standing,
She fell so far that she could not see
[Chorus]
And I was angry when I woke up
When I found out that we broke up
She packed her bags, she was gone before the sun
She left a letter on the table,
Said catch me if you're able
But I'll be moving fast and I'm still hard to find
So I wont call you and I wont follow
Cause the truth is hard to swallow
Said I'd pick you up, but I'd only let you down.
Heard from a friend you moved back to Corpus
You always loved that ocean air
I know that you know that I'm headed down that way
Don't worry cause I wont call
It'd be strange for me to see you
You know there's so much left unsaid
[Chorus]
Said I'd pick you up but I'd only let you down
Wrote you a letter while in Corpus
It took everything I had
Went down to the pier and looked out across that bay
Took that letter then I watched it burn away
[Chorus]
Said I'd pick you up but I'd only let you down
You know her birthday's the same as mine
When we first met she'd never left Texas
She was young and so confused
She got caught up in the bright lights
The whiskey, pills and all those late nights
From the mountain where we standing,
She fell so far that she could not see
[Chorus]
And I was angry when I woke up
When I found out that we broke up
She packed her bags, she was gone before the sun
She left a letter on the table,
Said catch me if you're able
But I'll be moving fast and I'm still hard to find
So I wont call you and I wont follow
Cause the truth is hard to swallow
Said I'd pick you up, but I'd only let you down.
Heard from a friend you moved back to Corpus
You always loved that ocean air
I know that you know that I'm headed down that way
Don't worry cause I wont call
It'd be strange for me to see you
You know there's so much left unsaid
[Chorus]
Said I'd pick you up but I'd only let you down
Wrote you a letter while in Corpus
It took everything I had
Went down to the pier and looked out across that bay
Took that letter then I watched it burn away
[Chorus]
Said I'd pick you up but I'd only let you down
No Doubt lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
I hear you're lookin' for a cowboy to take you for a ride
Well baby, I think that I'm your man
'Cause I've been broken and busted
But these spurs still ain't rusted, and this saddle it's a wonder she'll still ride
And it's gonna be a long night, so baby hold on tight
I talk slow, but I still move real fast
I'm here for the real deal, and your heart's all that I'll steal
And girl there won't be no doubt
You can't resist my Resistol
It's black as the nightfall
My boots they're leather and hide
I'm here for a wild ride
I'll stand right by your side
And we'll dance til the sun comes up
And I'm tore up from the floor up, look down and look up
I'm a cowboy from my head to my toes
And this rodeo's all I know
I'll put on a real show
And girl there won't be no doubt
I've been thrown, I've been bruised
Tossed and confused
Eight seconds can seem like a day
But stay out of my way
'Cause I come to play
And eight seconds is all that I'll stay
You can't resist my Resistol
It's black as the nightfall
My boots they're leather and hide
I'm here for a wild ride
I'll stand right by your side
And we'll dance til the sun comes up
And I'm tore up from the floor up, look down and look up
I'm a cowboy from my head to my toes
And this rodeo's all I know
I'll put on a real show
And girl there won't be no doubt
I love a girl with a tramp stamp
A double dockin' boat ramp
Whiskey - shaken, never stirred
Tank tops and flip flops
Those all night long truck stops
And beer when it's cold and when it's free
You can't resist my Resistol
It's black as the nightfall
My boots they're leather and hide
I'm here for a wild ride
I'll stand right by your side
And we'll dance til the sun comes up
And I'm tore up from the floor up, look down and look up
I'm a cowboy from my head to my toes
And this rodeo's all I know
I'll put on a real show
And girl there won't be no doubt
No, girl, there won't be no doubt
I hear you're lookin' for a cowboy to take you for a ride
Well baby, I think that I'm your man
Well baby, I think that I'm your man
'Cause I've been broken and busted
But these spurs still ain't rusted, and this saddle it's a wonder she'll still ride
And it's gonna be a long night, so baby hold on tight
I talk slow, but I still move real fast
I'm here for the real deal, and your heart's all that I'll steal
And girl there won't be no doubt
You can't resist my Resistol
It's black as the nightfall
My boots they're leather and hide
I'm here for a wild ride
I'll stand right by your side
And we'll dance til the sun comes up
And I'm tore up from the floor up, look down and look up
I'm a cowboy from my head to my toes
And this rodeo's all I know
I'll put on a real show
And girl there won't be no doubt
I've been thrown, I've been bruised
Tossed and confused
Eight seconds can seem like a day
But stay out of my way
'Cause I come to play
And eight seconds is all that I'll stay
You can't resist my Resistol
It's black as the nightfall
My boots they're leather and hide
I'm here for a wild ride
I'll stand right by your side
And we'll dance til the sun comes up
And I'm tore up from the floor up, look down and look up
I'm a cowboy from my head to my toes
And this rodeo's all I know
I'll put on a real show
And girl there won't be no doubt
I love a girl with a tramp stamp
A double dockin' boat ramp
Whiskey - shaken, never stirred
Tank tops and flip flops
Those all night long truck stops
And beer when it's cold and when it's free
You can't resist my Resistol
It's black as the nightfall
My boots they're leather and hide
I'm here for a wild ride
I'll stand right by your side
And we'll dance til the sun comes up
And I'm tore up from the floor up, look down and look up
I'm a cowboy from my head to my toes
And this rodeo's all I know
I'll put on a real show
And girl there won't be no doubt
No, girl, there won't be no doubt
I hear you're lookin' for a cowboy to take you for a ride
Well baby, I think that I'm your man
Fallen lyrics - Casey Donahew Lyrics
When I came home you said "you're crazy"
Ya know, I think you're probably right
Cause I've been out and I've been drinkin'
I left you all alone again last night
You haven't cried that I've noticed
But I don't notice much at all
And what's that suitcase by the front door
Said I can't stand to watch you fall
But I've already fallen
I've already lost control
I've already missed
And I've already sold my soul
And I've already cried
And I wish that I was flyin'
But I'll keep on fallin'
Now I won't even try to stop you
You're better off with someone new
And I hope that you don't remember
All the pain that I've put you through
You'll find a new love, and you'll be happy
And you won't think of me at all
And all those nights you've tried to save me
I'd stumble and I'd fall
But I've already fallen
I've already lost control
I've already missed
And I've already sold my soul
And I've already cried
And I wish that I was flyin'
But I'll keep on fallin'
I've already fallen
I've already lost control
I've already missed
And I've already sold my soul
And I've already cried
And I wish that I was flyin'
But I'll keep on...
But I keep on fallin'
Ya know, I think you're probably right
Cause I've been out and I've been drinkin'
I left you all alone again last night
You haven't cried that I've noticed
But I don't notice much at all
And what's that suitcase by the front door
Said I can't stand to watch you fall
But I've already fallen
I've already lost control
I've already missed
And I've already sold my soul
And I've already cried
And I wish that I was flyin'
But I'll keep on fallin'
Now I won't even try to stop you
You're better off with someone new
And I hope that you don't remember
All the pain that I've put you through
You'll find a new love, and you'll be happy
And you won't think of me at all
And all those nights you've tried to save me
I'd stumble and I'd fall
But I've already fallen
I've already lost control
I've already missed
And I've already sold my soul
And I've already cried
And I wish that I was flyin'
But I'll keep on fallin'
I've already fallen
I've already lost control
I've already missed
And I've already sold my soul
And I've already cried
And I wish that I was flyin'
But I'll keep on...
But I keep on fallin'
Runaway Train lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Got this empty feelin'
Broken soul and I'm not believin' that
She's gone and I'm the fool again
Up high, take me down
The time goes on and my tears hit the ground
And I look back, I find that she's a friend
I'm runnin' fast, I'm gettin' nowhere
And I still remember the smell of your hair
And the way you looked whenever I would hitch a ride
And you were headed south on a runaway train
My life's in pieces like a broken picture frame
Love to hold you, but you long to be free
You need somebody, and I don't think that it's me
You walked away without sayin' a word
I tried to call you, but I guess you never heard
That was me and I was screamin' your name
But you were headed south on this runaway train
I still recall the day we met
The sky was cloudy how could I forget the way you looked in that blue dress
I sit alone in a room of friends and scattered thoughts dance through my head and I wonder if you'd ever love me at all
By my next picture in my head, and I still remember the last thing you said was
I've gotta go, and please don't follow me
And you were headed south on a runaway train
My life's in pieces like a broken picture frame
Love to hold you, but you long to be free
You need somebody, and I don't think that it's me
You walked away without sayin' a word
I tried to call you, but I guess you never heard
That was me and I was screamin' your name
But you were headed south on this runaway train
Yeah you were headed south on a runaway train
My life's in pieces like a broken picture frame
Love to hold you, but you long to be free
You need somebody, and I don't think that it's me
You walked away without sayin' a word
I tried to call you, but I guess you never heard
That was me and I was screamin' your name
But you were headed south on this runaway train
Runaway
Runaway
Runaway
Broken soul and I'm not believin' that
She's gone and I'm the fool again
Up high, take me down
The time goes on and my tears hit the ground
And I look back, I find that she's a friend
I'm runnin' fast, I'm gettin' nowhere
And I still remember the smell of your hair
And the way you looked whenever I would hitch a ride
And you were headed south on a runaway train
My life's in pieces like a broken picture frame
Love to hold you, but you long to be free
You need somebody, and I don't think that it's me
You walked away without sayin' a word
I tried to call you, but I guess you never heard
That was me and I was screamin' your name
But you were headed south on this runaway train
I still recall the day we met
The sky was cloudy how could I forget the way you looked in that blue dress
I sit alone in a room of friends and scattered thoughts dance through my head and I wonder if you'd ever love me at all
By my next picture in my head, and I still remember the last thing you said was
I've gotta go, and please don't follow me
And you were headed south on a runaway train

You walked away without sayin' a word

Better Off Alone lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Empty on the hours
And empty on the days
I've locked up all the doors
Take me on my way
Down a broken road of questions
That lead me to a lie
To a cold night in December
When we both sat down to cry
Now will you carve my name upon a stone?
Will you lay me down to rest?
Do you think I'll see my father's father
Do you think I'll pass his test?
Will you whisper "Lord please keep me,
always walk right by my side"?
Will you place the coins upon my eyes
To pay the boatman for the ride?
[Chorus:]
Well I was standing in the drizzling rain
Just long enough to wash away my pain
And realize that she's never coming home
She said "I won't come back"
I said "Don't come back, I'm better off alone"
She called me from a pay phone
South of San Antone
And I could hear somebody talking
But she swore she was alone
You know it sounded so familiar
I pray to God that I am wrong
I always thought she'd leave me
I never dreamed he'd go along
[Chorus X2]
I'm better off alone
And empty on the days
I've locked up all the doors
Take me on my way
Down a broken road of questions
That lead me to a lie
To a cold night in December
When we both sat down to cry
Now will you carve my name upon a stone?
Will you lay me down to rest?
Do you think I'll see my father's father
Do you think I'll pass his test?
Will you whisper "Lord please keep me,
always walk right by my side"?
Will you place the coins upon my eyes
To pay the boatman for the ride?
[Chorus:]
Well I was standing in the drizzling rain
Just long enough to wash away my pain
And realize that she's never coming home
She said "I won't come back"
I said "Don't come back, I'm better off alone"
She called me from a pay phone
South of San Antone
And I could hear somebody talking
But she swore she was alone
You know it sounded so familiar
I pray to God that I am wrong
I always thought she'd leave me
I never dreamed he'd go along
[Chorus X2]
I'm better off alone
Love Me Right lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
I grew up in a north Texas town
And I was the guy your daddy wouldn't let you hang around
'Cause I was on the move, and I was movin' fast
Tell you that I love you but I know it'll never last
Then I met a girl with a heart so true
She took me by the hand, turned my gray skies back to blue
She said lay me down, you know I'm gonna love you
Hold me tight and there's things I'm gonna show you
Listen close, whisper when I tell you
Love me right and we'll always get through
Never lie, always stay true
You can stay all night if you want to
I don't mind the little things you do
Love me right and we'll always get through
I was into gamblin', and I was into cars
I was into goin' where the girls dance on the bars
I was into trouble, I was up to nothin' good
And I was always doin' little things I never should
And I was always leavin', but she can make me stay
All I had to do was to hear her say
She said lay me down, you know I'm gonna love you
Hold me tight and there's things I'm gonna show you
Listen close, whisper when I'll tell you
Love me right and we'll always get through
Never lie, always stay true
You can stay all night if you want to
I don't mind the little things you do
Love me right and we'll always get through
Now I've changed my ways
And I'm walkin' straight
I'm in a hurry so don't make me late
'Cause I've gotta see her
I wanna know
I'm gonna hold and I'll never let go
She said lay me down, you know I'm gonna love you
Hold me tight and there's things I'm gonna show you
Listen close, whisper when I tell you
Love me right and we'll always get through
Never lie, always stay true
You can stay all night if you want to
I don't mind the little things you do
Love me right and we'll always get through
Lay me down, you know I'm gonna love you
Hold me tight and there's things I'm gonna show you
Listen close, whisper when I tell you
Love me right and we'll always get through
Never lie, always stay true
You can stay all night if you want to
I don't mind the little things you do
Love me right and we'll always get through
Love me right
Just love me right
Won't you love me right
And we're gonna get through
And I was the guy your daddy wouldn't let you hang around
'Cause I was on the move, and I was movin' fast
Tell you that I love you but I know it'll never last
Then I met a girl with a heart so true
She took me by the hand, turned my gray skies back to blue
She said lay me down, you know I'm gonna love you
Hold me tight and there's things I'm gonna show you
Listen close, whisper when I tell you
Love me right and we'll always get through
Never lie, always stay true
You can stay all night if you want to
I don't mind the little things you do
Love me right and we'll always get through

I was into goin' where the girls dance on the bars
I was into trouble, I was up to nothin' good
And I was always doin' little things I never should
And I was always leavin', but she can make me stay

Love me right and we'll always get through
Love me right
Just love me right
Won't you love me right
And we're gonna get through
Where The Rain Can't Find Me lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
I woke up to the rain this morning
Forgot the couch was my bed
And I drove to work just thinking
Just about things that you had said
And I got stuck in traffic
Cussed for days upon days
And I got to find a getaway from all your wicked ways
And I’m just gunna go where the rain can’t find me
Far enough so that you know we’re through
Somewhere where the waves crash on white beaches
And all the waters bloom
I’ll be burning on a golden beach top
Sunglasses for my eyes
And everyone here thinks I’m happy
I can’t hear your lies
Gotta love a girl rubbin my shoulder
Helping me work on my tan
All my drinks they’ve got umbrellas
And I’m gunna drink all I can
Let’s just go
Where the rain can’t find me
Far enough so that you know we’re through
Somewhere where the waves crash on white beaches
And all the waters bloom
I’m just gunna go here the rain can’t find me
Far enough so that you know we’re through
Somewhere where the waves crash on white beaches
And all the waters bloom
Where the rain can’t find me
Far enough so that you know we’re through
Somewhere where the waves crash on white beaches
And all the waters bloom
Where the rain can’t find me
Far enough so that you know we’re through
Somewhere where the waves crash on white beaches
And all the waters bloom
I woke up to the rain this morning
Forgot the couch was my bed
And I drove to work just thinking
Just about things that you had said
And I got stuck in traffic
Cussed for days upon days
And I got to find a getaway from all your wicked ways
And I’m just gunna go where the rain can’t find me
Far enough so that you know we’re through
Somewhere where the waves crash on white beaches
And all the waters bloom
I’ll be burning on a golden beach top
Sunglasses for my eyes
And everyone here thinks I’m happy
I can’t hear your lies
Gotta love a girl rubbin my shoulder
Helping me work on my tan
All my drinks they’ve got umbrellas
And I’m gunna drink all I can
Let’s just go
Where the rain can’t find me
Far enough so that you know we’re through
Somewhere where the waves crash on white beaches
And all the waters bloom
I’m just gunna go here the rain can’t find me
Far enough so that you know we’re through
Somewhere where the waves crash on white beaches
And all the waters bloom
Where the rain can’t find me
Far enough so that you know we’re through
Somewhere where the waves crash on white beaches
And all the waters bloom
Where the rain can’t find me
Far enough so that you know we’re through
Somewhere where the waves crash on white beaches
And all the waters bloom
I woke up to the rain this morning
Shine On Me lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
The sands of time they flow so slow
I catch hell from everyone I know
And I’m so tired of being alone
So I get drunk and I just stay home
Looking in the mirror I get lost
I think about life’s’ choices and the cost
I wish I could stop and catch my air
And whoever said that life is fair
[Chorus]
Now it’s been a long 25 years
Living life with all these fears
I’m holding on for a better day
Pray the sun will come and stay
Shine on me, shine on me
Life so hard, I’m so confused
Broken down, my soul’s been used
And I know there won’t be an excuse
But sometimes you got to cut the pain loose
[Chorus]
I know you won’t understand
All I can do is all I can
I’m so weak when I need to be strong
And it won’t be long until you find me gone
Now it’s been a long 25 years
Living life with all these fears
I’m holding on for a better day
Pray the sun will come and stay
Shine on me, shine on me
Just shine on me (shine on me) [4x]
I catch hell from everyone I know
And I’m so tired of being alone
So I get drunk and I just stay home
Looking in the mirror I get lost
I think about life’s’ choices and the cost
I wish I could stop and catch my air
And whoever said that life is fair
[Chorus]
Now it’s been a long 25 years
Living life with all these fears
I’m holding on for a better day
Pray the sun will come and stay
Shine on me, shine on me
Life so hard, I’m so confused
Broken down, my soul’s been used
And I know there won’t be an excuse
But sometimes you got to cut the pain loose
[Chorus]
I know you won’t understand
All I can do is all I can
I’m so weak when I need to be strong
And it won’t be long until you find me gone
Now it’s been a long 25 years
Living life with all these fears
I’m holding on for a better day
Pray the sun will come and stay
Shine on me, shine on me
Just shine on me (shine on me) [4x]
Crash lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Tap the brakes
We’re not slowing down
The bridge is burning
There’s no turning around
And she was screaming
But I don’t hear a sound
And all my friends
Keep on waiting for this to come unwound
And I don’t know why I care
Don’t miss that cold stare she use to give to me
And I keep hopin that somehow I find my way out now that I can see
That I’ve crashed
It was rainin
She was dressed in white
We were dancing
Holdin on so tight
Just romancing
And this could be the night
It was the last time
Everything seemed to feel so right
Now she won’t stop complaining she driving me insane and I cant breathe
And I keep hopin that somehow I find my way out now that I can see
That I’ve crashed
You know I’ve crashed
And I don’t know all that I can do
But I can’t stay
Ad I keep holdin on to something to get me through today
And I don’t know why I care
Don’t miss that cold stare she use to give to me
And I keep hopin that somehow I find my way out now that I can see
That I’ve crashed
I’ve crashed
You know I’ve crashed
Hangovers And Memories lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
There’s an empty bottle of wine sitting by the bed
Images of you and him in my head
I threw the bottle across the room
Broke your picture on the wall
Trying to convince myself I ain’t missin you at all
The things that you think will keep you sane
Are the things that’ll surely tear you down
An empty shot glass, a pocket full of pills
Until the love of a strange girl just don’t seem real
an’ When the man in the mirror becomes a blur
All you’re left with are hangovers and memories of her
You got holes in your story
That your smile can’t erase
And I can tell that you’re lying
By that love upon your face
And myself be easy, and my pride is one to cause
And you’ll wake up alone tomorrow
know your heart’s the one that lost
The things that you’ll think will keep you sane
Are the things that’ll surely tear you down
An empty shot glass, a pocket full of pills
Until the love of a strange girl just don’t seem real
When the man in the mirror becomes a blur
All you’re left with are hangovers and memories of her
Now all I’m left with are hangovers and memories of her
Images of you and him in my head
I threw the bottle across the room
Broke your picture on the wall
Trying to convince myself I ain’t missin you at all
The things that you think will keep you sane
Are the things that’ll surely tear you down
An empty shot glass, a pocket full of pills
Until the love of a strange girl just don’t seem real
an’ When the man in the mirror becomes a blur
All you’re left with are hangovers and memories of her
You got holes in your story
That your smile can’t erase
And I can tell that you’re lying
By that love upon your face
And myself be easy, and my pride is one to cause
And you’ll wake up alone tomorrow
know your heart’s the one that lost
The things that you’ll think will keep you sane
Are the things that’ll surely tear you down
An empty shot glass, a pocket full of pills
Until the love of a strange girl just don’t seem real
When the man in the mirror becomes a blur
All you’re left with are hangovers and memories of her
Now all I’m left with are hangovers and memories of her
White Trash Story lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
My best friend Junior, he lives two trailers down
His wife MaryLou she runs the Caberet in town
They've got two kids, and they dont look like him
He's a tractor tech, he's a redneck, now he's gettin drunk again
[Chorus]
I'm talkin bout the good times, drinkin down the bad
Tryin to remember all those crazy nights that we had
Now I'm empty, I'm not sad
Talkin bout the good times, drinkin down the bad
Miss Sara Ann Bakersmith, she was my girlfriend
I took her top off for the first time at the drive-in
You know those had to be the coolest things I'd seen
She was passed around like a bottle of crown, but she was always sweet to me
[Chorus]
Now Junior's Junior's kid, you know they call him "The Duece"
And his grandma she drinks vodka in her orange juice
She sells pot to kids, and she just got out of jail
Junior had to sell his new John-boat just to help to raise the bail
[Chorus]
Now my name's Carl Wayne, I've had two DUI's
Three years ago they took my license I dont drive
These boots can get me there, 'cause I live just down the street
Its last call, its too far to crawl, now help me to my feet
[Chorus]
Just talkin bout the good times, drinkin down the bad
Talkin bout the good times
His wife MaryLou she runs the Caberet in town
They've got two kids, and they dont look like him
He's a tractor tech, he's a redneck, now he's gettin drunk again
[Chorus]
I'm talkin bout the good times, drinkin down the bad
Tryin to remember all those crazy nights that we had
Now I'm empty, I'm not sad
Talkin bout the good times, drinkin down the bad
Miss Sara Ann Bakersmith, she was my girlfriend
I took her top off for the first time at the drive-in
You know those had to be the coolest things I'd seen
She was passed around like a bottle of crown, but she was always sweet to me
[Chorus]
Now Junior's Junior's kid, you know they call him "The Duece"
And his grandma she drinks vodka in her orange juice
She sells pot to kids, and she just got out of jail

Talkin bout the good times
Stockyards lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
The stockyards its my backyard that's where I grew up
Its where I drank my first beer I cried my first tear
On the corner of north and main
Down the bricks of exchange I felt so strange
She reached down and gave me a kiss
And in the shadows of downtown I hung around
To find me a gold buckle queen
[Chorus:]
In the stockyards its my backyard that's where I grew up
Its were I drank my first beer I cried my first tear
On the corner of north and main
In the stockyards its my backyard that's where I grew up
If your down in the shoots twirling the loops
Cadilliac's is probably your spot
Man its cowboy hats and cowboy cats
As far as the eye can see
And I'll be coming back real soon to longhorns saloon
So Alex can pour me a beer
[Chorus]
If your on the chase I know the place
William Roberts will surly suffice
And if your not sure just drink one more
She'll look better I swear
Cause I was given birth in south fort worth
That's where I'll live and die
[Chorus]
Not sure where you are it could be PR's
I've been lost there myself
Two steps from my pillow the shut down armadillo
I stopped off and bought one round
[Chorus]
Its where I drank my first beer I cried my first tear
On the corner of north and main
Down the bricks of exchange I felt so strange
She reached down and gave me a kiss
And in the shadows of downtown I hung around
To find me a gold buckle queen
[Chorus:]
In the stockyards its my backyard that's where I grew up
Its were I drank my first beer I cried my first tear
On the corner of north and main
In the stockyards its my backyard that's where I grew up
If your down in the shoots twirling the loops
Cadilliac's is probably your spot
Man its cowboy hats and cowboy cats
As far as the eye can see
And I'll be coming back real soon to longhorns saloon
So Alex can pour me a beer
[Chorus]
If your on the chase I know the place
William Roberts will surly suffice
And if your not sure just drink one more
She'll look better I swear
Cause I was given birth in south fort worth
That's where I'll live and die
[Chorus]
Not sure where you are it could be PR's
I've been lost there myself
Two steps from my pillow the shut down armadillo
I stopped off and bought one round
[Chorus]
Lost Days lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
[Verse 1:]
Well its been a long time since I seen you around
and when was the last time you laid a foot in my town
my doors still open and you know the way to my place
and I still spend all night long dreamin about your face
[Chorus:]
I roll out of bed with you in my head
and I spend my time thinkin about what you said
wish I knew what I put you through
well I'd love to see you if you wanted to too
but if you don't call it will be ok
cause I've got a heartache to get me through the lost days
[Verse 2:]
my friends have saw you when you were walkin down main
you been in town three days haven't called I'm goin insane
but I still remember we'd get high and love all night
but I still wake up alone till the dawning of the light
[Chorus]
And everything I do just seems so wrong
and you been gone now for so long
and everyone around here thinks we're done
but I still feel the pain with the rising of the sun
[Chorus]
Well its been a long time since I seen you around
and when was the last time you laid a foot in my town
my doors still open and you know the way to my place
and I still spend all night long dreamin about your face
[Chorus:]
I roll out of bed with you in my head
and I spend my time thinkin about what you said
wish I knew what I put you through
well I'd love to see you if you wanted to too
but if you don't call it will be ok
cause I've got a heartache to get me through the lost days
[Verse 2:]
my friends have saw you when you were walkin down main
you been in town three days haven't called I'm goin insane
but I still remember we'd get high and love all night
but I still wake up alone till the dawning of the light
[Chorus]
And everything I do just seems so wrong
and you been gone now for so long
and everyone around here thinks we're done
but I still feel the pain with the rising of the sun
[Chorus]
New Orleans lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Well I walked on down to Bourbon Street
I'm looking for the house of New Orleans
And I sold off all my whiskey
I bummed a cigarette from a man who had no arms
And I asked him for directions
He just turned around and walked on down the road
[Chorus]
Well I remember the night
That we danced out in the rain
I remember the night
That she helped me thru my pain
I know there's times I feel like I could go insane
But I remember the night that we danced in the rain
I walked on down to the waters edge
Watched the Mississippi river boats flying down that waterline
And I watched couples walking in the sand and holding hands
Well I got lost that night in the shadows of the dam
[Chorus X2]
I'm looking for the house of New Orleans
And I sold off all my whiskey
I bummed a cigarette from a man who had no arms
And I asked him for directions
He just turned around and walked on down the road
[Chorus]
Well I remember the night
That we danced out in the rain
I remember the night
That she helped me thru my pain
I know there's times I feel like I could go insane
But I remember the night that we danced in the rain
I walked on down to the waters edge
Watched the Mississippi river boats flying down that waterline
And I watched couples walking in the sand and holding hands
Well I got lost that night in the shadows of the dam
[Chorus X2]
High lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
I'm cruising down mainstreet in an '87 Chevrolet
I'm rollin down 174 tryin to find some more
Wish I had a little money I'd spend it all on you
I'd buy us a quarter bag and twelve pack of brew
[Chorus]
And we'll get high, and I drink
Well I'm tryin not to think
And I get stoned and I'm drunk
Well I'm tryin to change my luck
Just gettin by
Well I'm a-gettin by, gettin high, yeah
Walkin down Browns mountain tryin to find my way around
I hope I don't get stopped by the cops in this here town
Head on to the south side and the cemetary trails
A worn out fishin hole where I raised a lot of hell
[Chorus]
There's a girl that lives on my street
Strawberry blonde, she tastes so sweet
I wanna tell her all the words in my heart
She moved away then she tore my world apart
[Chorus]
Fifteen minutes south of the Fort Worth city lights
We watch football games here on Friday nights
I grew up slow and now I'm living so fast
Running out of liquor and this quarter bag won't last
[Chorus 2x]
I'm rollin down 174 tryin to find some more
Wish I had a little money I'd spend it all on you
I'd buy us a quarter bag and twelve pack of brew
[Chorus]
And we'll get high, and I drink
Well I'm tryin not to think
And I get stoned and I'm drunk
Well I'm tryin to change my luck
Just gettin by
Well I'm a-gettin by, gettin high, yeah
Walkin down Browns mountain tryin to find my way around
I hope I don't get stopped by the cops in this here town
Head on to the south side and the cemetary trails
A worn out fishin hole where I raised a lot of hell
[Chorus]
There's a girl that lives on my street
Strawberry blonde, she tastes so sweet
I wanna tell her all the words in my heart
She moved away then she tore my world apart
[Chorus]
Fifteen minutes south of the Fort Worth city lights
We watch football games here on Friday nights
I grew up slow and now I'm living so fast
Running out of liquor and this quarter bag won't last
[Chorus 2x]
Tulsa lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
You always said you'd never leave me
Now you are gone and I'm to blame
Living in a hotel room by the airport
I hear you're seeing what's his name
[Chorus]
But those bright lights up in Tulsa
Don't shine here in Ft. Worth
Lying to myself won't do no good
That northern wind blows colder
And you're lying on his shoulder
Well I'm alone, I'm alone
She's in Tulsa
I try to sleep but I hear my heart break
I try to cry but there's no more tears
I can't believe you finally left me
We've been together for five damn years
[Chorus X3]
Now you are gone and I'm to blame
Living in a hotel room by the airport
I hear you're seeing what's his name
[Chorus]
But those bright lights up in Tulsa
Don't shine here in Ft. Worth
Lying to myself won't do no good
That northern wind blows colder
And you're lying on his shoulder
Well I'm alone, I'm alone
She's in Tulsa
I try to sleep but I hear my heart break
I try to cry but there's no more tears
I can't believe you finally left me
We've been together for five damn years
[Chorus X3]
Let It Take Over You lyrics - Casey Donahe Band
Whats goin on in my head
These three words I just said
and what is the deal with the way that I feel when you walk in a room.
Well I guess I'm falling apart,
She's got the keys to my heart,
and though I long for her touch,
cause I love her so much please be my girl.
And now I wanna feel you by me,
now I wanna what you see.
Now when you look in my eyes,
do you see any lies, why much you run?
Has something begun, Let it take over you.
Well I'll give you all that I've got,
and I wont be what I'm not.
I'll let my passion unfold and ask you, that I hold,
if you'll give me a chance, there's nothing more I can say,
I love you more everyday,
and I know its for real cause your kisses
i steal every chance that i get,
And now I wanna feel you by me,
now I wanna know what you see.
Now when you look in my eyes,
do you see any lies, why much you run?
Has something begun?
Let it take over you.
Because its sure taken me,
I was blind now I see
Why must you run has something begun,
Let's have some fun,
Let it take over you
Just let it take over you
Just let it take over,
Just let it take over you
These three words I just said
and what is the deal with the way that I feel when you walk in a room.
Well I guess I'm falling apart,
She's got the keys to my heart,
and though I long for her touch,
cause I love her so much please be my girl.
And now I wanna feel you by me,
now I wanna what you see.
Now when you look in my eyes,
do you see any lies, why much you run?
Has something begun, Let it take over you.
Well I'll give you all that I've got,
and I wont be what I'm not.
I'll let my passion unfold and ask you, that I hold,
if you'll give me a chance, there's nothing more I can say,
I love you more everyday,
and I know its for real cause your kisses
i steal every chance that i get,
And now I wanna feel you by me,
now I wanna know what you see.
Now when you look in my eyes,
do you see any lies, why much you run?
Has something begun?
Let it take over you.
Because its sure taken me,
I was blind now I see
Why must you run has something begun,
Let's have some fun,
Let it take over you
Just let it take over you
Just let it take over,
Just let it take over you
Your Gone lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Now the air turns colder
I wish that I had told her
Everything I know my heart should say
Ive been lying here thinking,
Been up all night, Ive been drinkin
Wash my sins away with a bottle of Jim Beam
I wanted to call but I waited
She's gone and I hate it
Everything I know my heart should say
[Chorus:]
I will spend my days thinkin about forever
And how the days go by so fast
And I just wanna scream so loud
That the walls tumble down
And I just wanna run so fast
I forget the past
And I just wanna breathe the air
Well I know you still care
But you're gone, you're gone
Well I've been sittin here lonely
She's still my only
Sold my soul and I got nothin in return
Sit and stare off to no where
I close my eyes and she's not there
Everyday I know just seems so dark
[Chorus 2X]
I wish that I had told her
Everything I know my heart should say
Ive been lying here thinking,
Been up all night, Ive been drinkin
Wash my sins away with a bottle of Jim Beam
I wanted to call but I waited
She's gone and I hate it
Everything I know my heart should say
[Chorus:]
I will spend my days thinkin about forever
And how the days go by so fast
And I just wanna scream so loud
That the walls tumble down
And I just wanna run so fast
I forget the past
And I just wanna breathe the air
Well I know you still care
But you're gone, you're gone
Well I've been sittin here lonely
She's still my only
Sold my soul and I got nothin in return
Sit and stare off to no where
I close my eyes and she's not there
Everyday I know just seems so dark
[Chorus 2X]
Can't Go Back lyrics - Casey donahew band
Well I said things I didn't mean
And you threw down that diamond ring
Turned around with no regrets
Just like we never met
Saw that ring skip across the floor
Said I don't love you anymore
[Chorus]
I never thought leaving would be this hard
Standing out front in the yard
I turn around and watch
While the lights in the house all fade to black
Realize you can't go back
I still love you this I know
And it's so hard to turn and go
I still see you in my dreams
And I still want you to wear that ring
If nothing ever changes
Then life just stays the same
And I'm the only one to blame
[Chorus X2]
And you threw down that diamond ring
Turned around with no regrets
Just like we never met
Saw that ring skip across the floor
Said I don't love you anymore
[Chorus]
I never thought leaving would be this hard
Standing out front in the yard
I turn around and watch
While the lights in the house all fade to black
Realize you can't go back
I still love you this I know
And it's so hard to turn and go
I still see you in my dreams
And I still want you to wear that ring
If nothing ever changes
Then life just stays the same
And I'm the only one to blame
[Chorus X2]
Twelve Gauge lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
There's a twelve gauge shotgun lyin on the floor
She's not sure that he's breathin anymore
Now she's sittin on the corner of her bed in her room
Siren's blarin they'll be there soon.
Now she's cryin with her head in her hands
Talkin so fast that they don't understand
Said he hit her that morning, he hit her that night
All she remembers was a flashin light
[Chorus]
But he's never gonna hit her again, he's never gonna hit her again
You can be real sure of one thing friend, he'll never ever hit her again.
Well he caught her with a quick right cross
Didn't know the line he'd crossed
Now there's blood in her hair and blood on her clothes
Blood still runnin' from her nose
Well she went and found a box of shells
Gonna take him straight to hell
There were tears on her face when her eyes turned black
Didn't know a twelve gauge could kick like that
[Chorus]
There's a twelve gauge shotgun lyin on the floor
She's not sure that he's breahin anymore
Well they put her in the cop car, took her downtown
All of the neighbors standin around
And now she's cryin with her head in her hands
And talkin to fast that they don't understand
Said he hit her in the morning, he hit her that night
All she remembered was a flashing light
[Chorus 2X]
She's not sure that he's breathin anymore
Now she's sittin on the corner of her bed in her room
Siren's blarin they'll be there soon.
Now she's cryin with her head in her hands
Talkin so fast that they don't understand
Said he hit her that morning, he hit her that night
All she remembers was a flashin light
[Chorus]
But he's never gonna hit her again, he's never gonna hit her again
You can be real sure of one thing friend, he'll never ever hit her again.
Well he caught her with a quick right cross
Didn't know the line he'd crossed
Now there's blood in her hair and blood on her clothes
Blood still runnin' from her nose
Well she went and found a box of shells
Gonna take him straight to hell
There were tears on her face when her eyes turned black
Didn't know a twelve gauge could kick like that
[Chorus]
There's a twelve gauge shotgun lyin on the floor
She's not sure that he's breahin anymore
Well they put her in the cop car, took her downtown
All of the neighbors standin around
And now she's cryin with her head in her hands
And talkin to fast that they don't understand
Said he hit her in the morning, he hit her that night
All she remembered was a flashing light
[Chorus 2X]
Love You Like I Do lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Said you need a little time
Get your mind back to right
You loaded up the trunk of your car
And you drove on out of sight
Went out to California
Spent 3 weeks by the bay
There was nothing I could do or say
That would ever make you stay
You came home but not alone
And your mind just seemed to roam
But I noticed that you'd sneak off
Just to use your telephone
[Chorus]
Now tell me where have you been
And just how far did you go
Well are you headed back
Is there someone there you know
Now he may tell you that he loves you
He may tell you that he's true
But there's no way in this world
He can love you like I do
Does he grab you by the hand
Does he whisper in your ear
Does he hold you while your sleeping
In the darkness pull you near
And does he tell you little stories
Just to see you smile
Would he walk a thousands miles
Just to love you for awhile
[Chorus]
In your eyes I see you leaving
In your lips I taste the wine
Somewhere deep inside of me
I know I'm running out of time
[Chorus]
Get your mind back to right
You loaded up the trunk of your car
And you drove on out of sight
Went out to California
Spent 3 weeks by the bay
There was nothing I could do or say
That would ever make you stay
You came home but not alone
And your mind just seemed to roam
But I noticed that you'd sneak off
Just to use your telephone
[Chorus]
Now tell me where have you been
And just how far did you go
Well are you headed back
Is there someone there you know
Now he may tell you that he loves you
He may tell you that he's true
But there's no way in this world
He can love you like I do
Does he grab you by the hand
Does he whisper in your ear
Does he hold you while your sleeping
In the darkness pull you near
And does he tell you little stories
Just to see you smile
Would he walk a thousands miles
Just to love you for awhile
[Chorus]
In your eyes I see you leaving
In your lips I taste the wine
Somewhere deep inside of me
I know I'm running out of time
[Chorus]
Down The Road lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
Well she's sittin in a car tryin to figure out
where she'll go
And she don't understand why she let him
break her soul
Now she's bein kinda small and it hurts when you fall
I guess it all hurts the same
But she can't believe that its time to leave but she's
headed down the road
[Chorus:]
She's got a hundred miles left in her gas tank
And not enough money to care
She grabs the wheel like its no big deal and she's
headed down the road
And she don't care why he left her there she's just
headed down the road
Now she stops and stares in a truckstop mirror
She can't believe what she sees
Has it really been this long and wheres the
Woman that she used to be
But she'll forget all about those regrets when
she's headed down the road
[Chorus]
Now she's locked out, lonely, lost and she
wants to go home
And she reaches down in her pocket to find some
money for the phone
And she just reaches on
She's all alone
[Chorus]
And she's gotta know why he broke her soul so she's
Headed down the road
where she'll go
And she don't understand why she let him
break her soul
Now she's bein kinda small and it hurts when you fall
I guess it all hurts the same
But she can't believe that its time to leave but she's
headed down the road
[Chorus:]
She's got a hundred miles left in her gas tank
And not enough money to care
She grabs the wheel like its no big deal and she's
headed down the road
And she don't care why he left her there she's just
headed down the road
Now she stops and stares in a truckstop mirror
She can't believe what she sees
Has it really been this long and wheres the
Woman that she used to be
But she'll forget all about those regrets when
she's headed down the road
[Chorus]
Now she's locked out, lonely, lost and she
wants to go home
And she reaches down in her pocket to find some
money for the phone
And she just reaches on
She's all alone
[Chorus]
And she's gotta know why he broke her soul so she's
Headed down the road
Back Home In Texas lyrics - Casey Donahew Band
I went up to New York City, It's a yankee pity
Those crazy bastards don't have a clue.
I went down to Tennesee, rocky top I had to see
But I left there cause the corn wont grow
I went down to New Orleans, let me tell you bout that scene
I got drunk on Bourban Street
[Chorus]
But I've been up all night, sippin on whiskey drinkin beer
Back home in Texas, I wouldn't live anywhere but here
Thinkin bout all those night I spent so far away
But I'm back home in Texas, and this is where I'm gonna stay.
I went out to California, my friends I'll have to warn you
They got a kick-ass streak out there
And Las Vegas took all my money, didn't think that it was funny
I lost two grand but I got drunk.
Colorado's cold, the snow it gets real old
It's hard to ski in cowboy boots
[Chorus]
Oklahoma's near, It's not home I fear
I got a better view from the south
Mexico's still hot, don't think that it's my spot
Never heard of Shiner Boch
[Chorus 2X]
Those crazy bastards don't have a clue.
I went down to Tennesee, rocky top I had to see
But I left there cause the corn wont grow
I went down to New Orleans, let me tell you bout that scene
I got drunk on Bourban Street
[Chorus]
But I've been up all night, sippin on whiskey drinkin beer
Back home in Texas, I wouldn't live anywhere but here
Thinkin bout all those night I spent so far away
But I'm back home in Texas, and this is where I'm gonna stay.
I went out to California, my friends I'll have to warn you
They got a kick-ass streak out there
And Las Vegas took all my money, didn't think that it was funny
I lost two grand but I got drunk.
Colorado's cold, the snow it gets real old
It's hard to ski in cowboy boots
[Chorus]
Oklahoma's near, It's not home I fear
I got a better view from the south
Mexico's still hot, don't think that it's my spot
Never heard of Shiner Boch
