I Found Another You (& She Hates Me Too) lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

Found Another You She Hates Me Too

She'll give me that look and I'll see it in her eyes

That same ol' look you gave me all the time

She'll say all the things you used to say

I'd never thought I'd live to see the day

I finally found another you

I finally found somebody who

Wants her arms around my neck

Loves to squeeze me to death

Out of every other girl

Out there in this big ol' world

I finally found another you

And she hates me too

She'll chew on me for all different kinds of wrongs

But with your same ol condescending tone

You told half the town that I was bad

Now She's out there telling the other half

I finally found another you

I finally found somebody who

Wants her arms around my neck

Loves to squeeze me to death

Out of every other girl

Out there in this big ol' world

I finally found another you

And she hates me too

Yeah she do

I finally found another you

I finally found somebody who

Wants her arms around my neck

Loves to squeeze me to death

Out of every other girl

Out there in this big ol' world

I finally found another you

And she hates me too

Not quite as much as you

Ain't been around me long as you

It's A Little Too Late lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

Well early this morning it dawned on me

The kind of man she needed me to be

She made a list and laid it there beside me on the bed

Now what I should've done keeps running through my head

Oh, I should've done this and I should've done that

I should've been there then she'd have never left

I should've been hanging on every word she ever had to say

But it's a little too late she's a little too gone

She's a little too right, I'm a little too wrong

Now would be a good time to change but it's a little too late

Last night I came home at a quarter till three

And to my surprise she wasn't mad at me

I thought she'd finally realized not to worry I'd be home

And then I realized this morning she was gone

Oh, I should've done this and I should've done that

I should've been there then she'd have never left

I should've been hanging on every word she ever had to say

But it's a little too late she's a little too gone

She's a little too right, I'm a little too wrong

Now would be a good time to change but it's a little too late

But it's a little too late she's a little too gone

She's a little too right, I'm a little too wrong

Now would be a good time to change but it's a little too late

Right now would be the time to change

But it's a little too late...

Let It Rain lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

Storm clouds rising flash of lightning rattles that ole porch swing

Window open curtains dancing just you and me

As the thunder rolls on we'll just hold on neath the light of this candle flame.

Oh this is perfect what a night let it rain

Let your love pour down down all around let it

Fill my heart let it flood this house

Let the world outside just wash on by we'll just lay right here and hold on tight

Let it rain

Let it rain

Old man weather had it together when he planned this night

From out of the blue he set the mood turned down the lights

Just when we thought the storm was over here it comes again

So lay back down in these arms let it rain

Let your love pour down down all around let it

Fill my heart let it flood this house

Let the world outside just wash on by we'll just lay right here and hold on tight

Let it rain

Let it rain

Light Of The World lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

Wise men in search of a child

Followed the light of a star 'til it came to rest

Over that holy place

Where they saw in his face

The light of the world

There in a manger they found

A gift from above to a world in darkness and doubt

That child was a king

Sent down to bring

The light of the world

So let it shine (let it shine)

Shine in our hearts (in our hearts)

Lighting our way (light the way)

Out of the dark (of the dark)

Bright as the star (as the star)

Sent from above (from above)

Lord let us shine (let us shine)

Shine with your love (with your love)

The light of the world

Though it was so long ago

The light of his love born in Bethlehem that holy night

Is still ours to see

In you and in me

The light of the world

So let it shine (let it shine)

Shine in our hearts (in our hearts)

Lighting our way (light the way)

Out of the dark (of the dark)

Bright as the star (as the star)

Sent from above (from above)

Lord let us shine (let us shine)

Shine with your love (with your love)

The light of the world (light of the world)

Light of the world (light of the world)

Light of the world

Santa Looked A Lot Like Daddy lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

(originally by Brad Paisley)

Well, Santa looked a lot like daddy

Or daddy looked a lot like him

It's not the way I had him pictured

Santa was a much too thin

He didn't come down the chimney

So mama must have let him in

Santa looked a lot like daddy

Or daddy looked a lot like him

Well, they thought I was fast a sleepin'

They thought that I was tucked in bed

They never thought I'd come a peepin'

Or that I'd hear what was said

Santa put his arm around mama

And mama put her arm around him

So if Santa Claus ain't close as daddy

Then I'm a gonna tell on him

Well, Santa looked a lot like daddy

Or daddy looked a lot like him

It's not the way I had him pictured

Santa was a much too thin

He didn't come down the chimney

So mama must have let him in

Santa looked a lot like daddy

Or daddy looked a lot like him

Well, I never saw Dancer or Prancer

I never heard the sleigh bells ring

I never saw the red nosed reindeer

Like they show on the TV screen

But he sure brought a lot presents

So Santa Claus he must have been

Well, he sure looked a lot like daddy

Or daddy looked a lot like him

He didn't come down the chimney

So mama must have let him in

Santa looked a lot like daddy

Or daddy looked a lot like him

Santa looked a lot like daddy

Or daddy looked a lot like him

Shame lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

Well, I went to bed sober first time in a week

Laid there about an hour and remembered why I drank

Memories jumping around outnumbering the sheep

Tossing and a turning and twisting up the sheets

Don't need a sawbone to tell me what's wrong

Cowboy down, woman done gone!

Shame, shame, shame

Ain't it a crying shame

Blame, blame, blame me for this whole dang thing

Thought I could take her or leave her cause she left me

I'm up here in misery

Thought I could live without her but I can't

Shame

Bout a quarter past midnight thought I'd take a drive

Ended up on elm street looking for a sign

Of any indication she was having second thoughts

By leaving me laying there look at what she lost

Think I see a shadow, what a minute, there's two

That's a pretty good sign me and her's through

Shame, shame, shame

Ain't it a crying shame

Blame, blame, blame me for this whole dang thing

Thought I could take her or leave her cause she left me

I'm out here in misery

Thought I could live without her but I can't

Shame

Shame, shame, shame

Ain't it a crying shame

Blame, blame, blame me for this whole dang thing

Thought I could take her or leave her cause she left me

I'm out here in misery

Thought I could live without her but I can't

Take it all back now ain't it a crying shame

Black Rose lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

Way down in Virginia
Amongst the tall grown sugarcane
Lived a simple man and a Dominecker hen
And a rose of a different name

Well, the first time I felt lightening
I was standing in drizzling rain
With a trembling hand and a bottle of Gin
And a rose of a different name

Well, the devil made me do it the first time
The second time I done it on my own
Lord put a handle on a simple headed man
Help me leave that black rose alone

When the devil made that woman
Lord, he threw the pattern away
Yeah, she were built for speed with the tools you need
To make a new fool everyday

Way down deep and dirty
On the darkest side of shame
I caught a cane cuttin' man doin' it again
With a rose of a different name

Well, the devil made me do it the first time
The second time I done it on my own
Lord, put a handle on a simple headed man
Help me leave that black rose alone

Well, the devil made me do it the first time
The second time I done it on my own
Lord, put a handle on a simple headed man
Help me leave that black rose alone

Whiskey Bent And Hell Bound lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

I got a good woman at home
Who thinks I do no wrong
But sometimes, Lord, she just ain't always around

And you know that's when I fall
Lord, I can't help myself at all
And I get whiskey bent and hell bound

Play me the songs about a ramblin' man
Put a cold one in my hand
'Cause you know I love to hear those guitar sounds

Don't play 'Your cheating heart'
'Cause that'll tear me apart
I'll get whiskey bent and hell bound

Sure enough about closin' time
I'm stoned out of my mind
And I end up with some honkytonk special I found

Just as sure as the mornin' sun comes
Thinkin' of my sweet girl at home
Lord, I need to get whiskey bent and hell bound

Play me the songs about a ramblin' man
Put old Jim Beam in my hand
'Cause you know I still love to get drunk
And hear country sounds

Don't play 'I'm so lonesome I could cry'
I get all balled up inside
Yeah, I'll get whiskey bent and hell bound

Yeah, don't you know that old Hank's songs
Always make me feel low down

Only Daddy That'll Walk The Line lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

Everybody knows you've been steppin' on my toes
And I'm gettin' pretty tired of it
You keep a-steppin' out of line and you're messin' with my mind
If you had any sense, you'd quit

Ever since you were a little bitty teeny girl
You said I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinkin' then you'll find
You got the only daddy that'll walk the line

I keep workin' every day, all you want to is play
I'm tired of stayin' out all night
Hey, I'm comin' unglued from your funny little moods
Now honey, baby, that ain't right

'Cause ever since you were a little bitty teeny girl
You said I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinkin' then you'll find
You got the only daddy that'll walk the line

You keep packin' up my clothes, lordy, everybody knows
That you're still just a-puttin' me on
But when I start walkin', gonna hear you start squawkin'
And beggin' me to come back home

Oh, ever since you were a little bitty teeny girl
You said I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinkin' then you'll find
You got the only daddy that'll walk the line

Now you better do some thinkin' then you'll find
You got the only daddy that'll walk the line

A Couple More Years lyrics - Mark Chesnutt (duet with Amber Digby)

I've got a couple more years on you, baby, that's all
I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall
It's not that I'm wiser, it's just that
I've spent more time with my back to the wall
And I've picked up a couple more years on you, baby, that's all

I've walked a couple more roads than you, baby, that's all
And I'm tired of runnin' while you're only learnin' to crawl
And you're goin' somewhere but I've been somewhere
Found it was nowhere at all
I've picked up a couple more years on you, baby, that's all

Sayin' goodbye, girl, don't never come easy at all
You've got to fly 'cause you're hearin' them young eagles call
Someday when you're older, you'll smile at a man strong and tall
Say I've got a couple more years on you, baby, that's all

I've got a couple more years on you, baby, that's all
I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall
It's not that I'm wiser, it's just that
I've spent more time with my back to the wall
And I've picked up a couple more years on you, baby, that's all

Need A Little Time Off For Bad Behavior lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

I need a little time off for bad behavior
Devil in me done been asleep too long
I need a little time off for bad behavior
It looks like I been too good for too long

I'm up and gone at the break of dawn
I'v been workin' like a regular dog
To keep the woman and the lights
And the water and the phone turned on

I've been sayin' 'Yes sir' all day at work
I've been sayin' 'Yes maam' at home
Been storin' up the cuss words
Keepin' 'em under my tongue

I need a little time off for bad behavior
The devil in me done been asleep too long
I need a little time off for bad behavior
It looks like I been too good for too long

I have this number on my mind a while
I been fightin' off the urge to call
Pretty little strawberry blonde
With a Southern drawl

Some good old boys from Alabama
Said the fishin' been missin' me
And I need to renew
My friendship with Jim Beam

I need a little time off for bad behavior
The devil in me done been asleep too long
I need a little time off for bad behavior
It looks like I been too good for too long

Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

Well, I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt
And the beer I had for breakfast wouldn't bad
So I had one more for dessert

Then I fumbled through my closet for my clothes
And found my cleanest dirty shirt
And I shaved my face and combed my hair
Stumbled down the stairs to meet the day

Well, I'd smoked my brain the night before
On cigarettes and songs I'd been picking
But I lit my first and watched a small boy
Cussin' at a can that he was kicking

And I crossed the empty street
Caught the Sunday smell of someone frying chicken
And Lord, it took me back to something that I'd lost
Somewhere, somehow along the way

On a Sunday morning sidewalk
I'm wishing Lord, that I was stoned
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That makes a body feel alone

And there's nothing short of dying
That's half as lonesome as the sound
Of a sleeping city sidewalk
A Sunday mornin' comin' down

In the park I saw a daddy
With a laughing little girl, he was swinging
And I stopped beside a Sunday school
And listened to the songs that they were singing

Then I headed back for home
And somewhere far away a bell was ringing
And it echoed through the canyons
Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday

On a Sunday morning sidewalk
Lord, I'm wishing I was stoned
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That makes a body feel alone

And there's nothing short of dying
That's half as lonesome as the sound
Of the sleeping city sidewalk
And Sunday mornin' comin' down

Are You Ready For The Country lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

Slipping and sliding, playing domino
Lefting and then righting, ain't a crime, you know
Well, I gotta tell a story, boy
'Fore it's time to go

Are you ready for the country?
Are you ready for me
Are you ready for the country?
Man, what a sight to see

Talkin' to the preacher, said God was on his side
Talkin' to a pusher, they both were certainly high
Yeah, they gotta tell the story 'cause
They don't know the reason why

But are you ready for the country
Because it's time to go?
Are you ready for the country
Man, what a sight to see

Lovin' Her Was Easier (Than Anything I'll Ever Do Again) lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

I have seen the morning burning golden
On the mountain in the skies
Aching with the feeling of the freedom
Of an eagle when she flies

Turning on the world the way she smiled
Upon my soul as I lay dying
Healing as the colors in the sunshine
And the shadows of her eyes

Waking in the morning to the feeling
Of her fingers on my skin
Wiping out the traces of the people
And the places that I've been

Teaching me that yesterday
Was something that I'd never thought of trying
Talking of tomorrow and the money, love
And time we had to spend

Loving her was easier than anything
I'll ever do again
Coming close together with a feeling
That I've never known before in my time

She ain't ashamed to be a woman
Or afraid to be a friend
I don't know the answer to the easy way
She opened every door in my mind

But dreaming was as easy as believing
It was never gonna end
And loving her was easier than anything
I'll ever do again

Country State Of Mind lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

That hot, old summer sun
Make you beg for your next breath
So you best be on the creek bank
Laid in the shade

Chewin' on a hickory twig
Pass that bottle, I'll have me a swig
I ain't got a lot
But I think I got it made in the shade

I'm just laid up here in a country state of mind
Hey, I'm catching these fish like they're goin' out of style
Drinkin' this homemade wine

Lord, if the sun don't come up tomorrow
People, I have had a good time
I'm just laid up here in a country state of mind

I bet the old man's in the kitchen
Got my kind of music on his radio
Drinkin' his beer and dialin' up the request line

Momma and old Aunt Joan
Probably in the dining room tryin' to use the phone
Me, I'm thinkin' about that girl and later tonight

I'm just laid up here in a country state of mind
Hey, I'm catching these fish like they're goin' out of style
Drinkin' this homemade wine

Lord, if the sun don't come up tomorrow
People, I have had a good time
I'm just laid up here in a country state of mind

You know, the rednecks and the preppies
They and their discos and honkytonks
Somewhere between raising hell and "Amazing Grace"

Lord, I know just how they feel
Gotta get out and kick up your heels
And ain't it great to be livin' in the U.S.A.?

Me, I'm laid up here in a country state of mind
Hey, I'm catchin' these fish like they're goin' out of style
Drinkin' this homemade wine

Well, if the sun don't come up tomorrow
Won't you know that I had a good time?
I'm just laid up here in a country state of mind

Freedom To Stay lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

I tied my bandanna, took my pack from the floor
You were still sleeping as I stood at the door
Once more I was headin' for God only knows where
That's when it hit me, I was already there

I could ramble a thousand miles or more
Never find the light I've seen in your eyes before
You gave me the freedom to go on my own way
But you gave me much more, you gave me the freedom to stay

Why keep on runnin' just to wish on a star?
Searching for Heaven, when I know where you are
Life is just empty, when you're walking alone
So wherever we're going, girl, Lord, it's good to be at home

I could ramble a thousand miles or more
Never find the light I've seen in your eyes before
You gave me the freedom to go on my own way
You gave me much more, you gave me the freedom to stay

Bloody Mary Morning lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

Well, it's a Bloody Mary morning
Baby left me without warning
Sometime in the night
And I'm flyin' down to Houston
Forgetting her, the nature of my flight

As we taxi toward the runway
The smog and haze reminding me of how I feel
Just a country boy who's learning
That the pitfalls of the city are extremely real

All the night life and the parties
Temptation and deceit, the order of the day
Well, it's a Bloody Mary morning
'Cause I'm leaving, baby, somewhere in LA

It's a Bloody Mary morning
Baby left me without warning
Sometime in the night
And so I'm flyin' down to Houston
With forgetting her, the nature of my flight

Well, it's a Bloody Mary morning
Baby left me without warning
Sometime in the night
And so I'm flyin' down to Houston
With forgetting her, the nature of my flight

Now our golden jet is airborne
As flight fifty cuts a path across the morning sky
And a voice comes on the speaker
Reassuring us flight fifty is the way you fly

Now our hostess takes our order
Coffee, tea or something stronger to start off the day
Well, it's a Bloody Mary morning
'Cause I'm leaving, baby, somewhere in LA

Well, it's a Bloody Mary morning
Baby left me without warning
Sometime in the night
And so I'm flyin' down to Houston
With forgetting her, the nature of my flight
Yeah, I'm flyin' down to Houston
Forgetting her, the nature of my flight

Desperados Waiting For A Train lyrics - Mark Chesnutt

I'd sing 'Red River Valley'
He'd sit out in the kitchen and cry
Run his fingers through seventy years of livin'
And wonder, Lord, has every well I drilled, gone dry?

We was friends, me and this old man
Like desperados waiting for a train
Like desperados waiting for a train

He's a drifter and a driller of oil wells
An old school man of the world
Taught me how to drive his car when he's too drunk to
And he'd wink and give me money for the girls

And our lives was like some old western movie
Like desperados waiting for a train
Like desperados waiting for a train

From the time I could walk he'd take me with him
To a place called the Green Frog Cafe
And there was old men with beer guts and Dominos
Lyin' 'bout their lives while they'd play

And I was just a kid they all called his sidekick
Like desperados waiting for a train
Like desperados waiting for a train

One day I looked up and he's pushin' eighty
And there's brown tobacco stains all down his chin
To me he's one of the heroes of this country
So why's he all dressed up like them old men?

Drinkin' beer and playin' moon and forty two
Like desperados waiting for a train
Like desperados waiting for a train

The day before he died I went to see him
I was grown and he was almost gone
So we just closed our eyes and dreamed us up a kitchen
And sang another verse to that old song

Right, Jack, that son of a bitch is comin'
Like desperados waiting for a train
Like desperados waiting for a train, waiting
Like desperados waiting for a train
